Hello, we’ve moved your post to the Nursing Licensure Criminal History forum for best responses. Generally, these things are looked at by state BONs on a case by case basis, so while you won’t find a definitive answer here, you will see others’ experiences.

I'm in IL and this is what our IDPFR site states:

Effective January 1, 2017, previously barred health care workers and first time applicants may become eligible for a license. Under the Department’s new process, a health care worker who was permanently revoked or denied due to a forcible felony may file a Petition for Review, which is currently available on the Department’s website. The review process does not apply to a forcible felony requiring registration under the Sex Offender Registration Act, involuntary sexual servitude of a minor, or a criminal battery against any patient in the course of patient care or treatment that is a forcible felony. Information about applying for licensure are available on the Department's website.
