hi please help because im planning to take my nclex here in NY. i already lived here and decided to take my nclex. but first i have to fill up the nurse form 1 and im kinda confused of what i will do..First, there's a question in #21-22 regarding Infection control course and child abuse identification, Do i need to take the online infection control and child abuse course first before i pass my application for licensure in NY?

Secondly, in question#10 of nurse form 1, they ask me if i previously applied for nysed in any profession under NY state education law? is it ok if i put "yes" since i have an upcoming exam in NY but in my other profession? please help :-)

It needs to be completed prior to being issued a license.

Yes, it is asking if you previously applied for licensure in any profession. They are looking to see if you have any disciplinary action against you with a different profession.
