Can LPN lose a license by not practicing for a year?

[Braemer24]

I am a new nurse and planning not to practice for a year... Am I going to lose my license?

just keep your license active....i think that should be enough.....

some states do audit nurses though if they have requirements on hrs of pratice but i think if you keep the license active that should be enough.....

Am I the only person that caught the fact that the OP lives and works in CANADA?

MODS: can we move this thread to the Canadian Forum: so that the OP isn't subjected to inaccurate information. No work cand and does result in loss of license up here.

Done. Thread is now in the 'Nursing In Canada' forum.
