If your MD nursing license expires in June...

Just an FYI to all RN, LPN, CNA in Maryland whose licenses expire in June... It does NOT matter when you were issued your license, all June birthday nurses MUST be fingerprinted. How is it possible that the MBON is so incompetent that they no longer have records of the original criminal background checks. Unfortunately, I had to go to the board in person to receive the 2nd letter with clarification. And just be prepared to hand over an additional $57.25. :mad:

Hi Happy day ! Thanks for mentioning this. I just received my new license in the mail (I passed the nclex last week) and my birthday is in October. I just noticed that the license will expire then and so I practically need to start applying for a new one next month! This is rather silly. So are you saying that I must obtain another finger print/background check etc??

Please read the notice at the Maryland BON. They are phasing this in over 12 years. Each year, one monthes worth of renewals have to update their records with their renewal.
