Kentucky Board of Nursing Policy on Requirements for Licensure Applicants with Criminal Convictions
State law requires that licensed individuals report criminal convictions to the Kentucky Board of Nursing within ninety (90) days of the conviction, KRS 314.109. Kentucky Board of Nursing Administrative Regulations 201 KAR 20:370, application for licensure and registration, also require applicants to report criminal convictions and states what must be submitted when reported.
I have read the Kentucky Board of Nursing Policy on the Requirements for Licensure Applicants with Criminal Convictions and understand these requirements.
I also understand that individuals who have a felony conviction are not eligible for placement in clinical courses and so cannot be admitted.
