Understanding these codes and statutes is important for nurses to understand what is being alleged in the complaint.

Licensure by Examination
Nurses must apply for either a LPN or RN license. Part of the application process is getting registered to sit for the NCLEX exam, prior to becoming a nurse.
As part of the application process, every applicant must have a criminal background check performed.
It is important to be honest and upfront in your application so you can obtain your nursing license by examination.
