I have had a lot of luck in PA with the Board of Nursing. I went as high as talking to the Govenor's office to get someone in the board to take me seriously. I had 4 ER nurses get a temp license in less than a week. They told me over the phone that it would take 4-6 weeks to get a temp. Use the word emergency and tell them that the hospital may have to close a unit if you can't get your license on time. Hope this helps. You just have to be very convincing that this is a serious matter.
