Hawaii RN license by endorsement after completing probation in another state

Published

Hello, I was on probation in CA for a DUI. Completed the program 6 years ago. Trying to apply for Hawaii RN license. Does anyone know the process? Do they make me go through another probation to get Hawaii license? 
my DUI was 10 years ago. 
thank you. Any advise is very much appreciated!

Nothing yet. Was going to call Hawaii BRN tomorrow and ask them. Before sending my information and spending money.

Hawaii board of Nursing is pretty lenient. They are a walk through state. They've never given me an issue.

is your probation terms met? do you have an unencumbered license? it should go through endorsement just fine. you will have to provide your side of the story, what the outcome was and how you will maintain yourself for this to never happen again.

Hawaii is very lenient.  You should be fine.
