Challenge Nursing Board?

Published

I'm new to the site, but I have a question. I'm a recently honorably discharged Army Medic, and came across some information. California allows Veteran Medics to take the LVN state licensing exam without getting formal schooling. Does anyone know if the state of Maryland allows the same thing? If not, does California allow an out of state Veteran Medic to come and test there?

Okay thanks for the feedback. I read somewhere that Florida may honor the California license.

No. CA BVNPT is very clear the challenges LVN is only valid in CA and not eligible to endorse in any other state.

Okay thanks for the clarification.

Contact the state board where you might want to practice to insure that they do not accept this type of CA license.
