Mississippi Code Title 75. Regulation of Trade, Commerce and Investments § 75-74-8

(1) Any nonresident physician who is not licensed to practice medicine in this state and any resident physician who is retired from the active practice of medicine in this state may be issued a temporary license by the state board of medical licensure to practice medicine at a youth camp licensed by the State Board of Health under this chapter while serving as a volunteer at such a camp, provided that any such nonresident physician shall hold a valid license to practice medicine in another state and the medical licensing authority of that state shall certify to the board of medical licensure in writing that such license is in good standing, and that any such retired resident physician shall be in good standing with the board of medical licensure.

(2) Any nonresident registered nurse who is not licensed to practice nursing in this state and any resident registered nurse who is retired from the active practice of nursing in this state may be issued a temporary license by the Mississippi Board of Nursing to practice nursing at a youth camp licensed under this chapter by the State Board of Health while serving as a volunteer at such a camp, provided that any such nonresident nurse shall hold a valid license to practice nursing in another state and the nurse licensing authority of that state shall certify to the board of nursing in writing that such license is in good standing, and that any such retired resident nurse shall be in good standing with the board of nursing. The board of nursing shall be authorized to require any resident registered nurse who has been retired from the active practice of nursing in this state for five (5) or more consecutive years to complete a nursing reorientation program prescribed by the board before the board will issue a temporary license to practice nursing at a youth camp to such nurse.

(3) A temporary license issued under subsection (1) or (2) of this section shall authorize the physician or registered nurse to whom the license is issued to administer treatment and care within the scope of his training to campers and employees of the youth camp, but shall not authorize the physician or registered nurse to otherwise practice in the state. Such temporary license shall be valid only during the time that the physician or registered nurse is in residence at the camp, but in no event shall such license be valid for more than ninety (90) days. A new temporary license shall be obtained by a physician or registered nurse each time that he serves as a volunteer at a youth camp. The fee for each such license shall be twenty-five dollars ($25.00), which shall be payable to the board from which the license is obtained.
