Nybon Nursing School Under Investigation

I finished my LPN-RN program from Carleen Health Institute. I took the NCLEX under New York state board and passed the exam. I'd been waiting on the license a couple of weeks and decided to call NYbon, was told the school is under review - hence they would not be issuing any licenses till the review is done. They also wouldn't give a time frame. Does anyone have any idea how long these reviews usually take or what could be done in situations like this?

The School was accredited before  they close it down  I will try and contact the board again. Thanks

So if the school is closed, does that mean that they will not let us test? Anyway, thank you for the information I appreciate. 

It's a case by case basis that's why they are reviewing the school they have to see why it closed. Try endorsing to another state. NY is only dealing with schools who are accredited and I operational present day 

Thank you I will try

So unless you work for NYS BON how do you know what they are or are not doing ... Simply amazes me how people are so concerned with what's going on with others. But I digress. This aggression and frustration should be directed  to the schools y'all gave money to not the boards who are finding fault with these schools

 

Best of luck to all

To be fair we're actively living it. I know people whose license are renewed who went to west palm beach and Sienna and they are working in ny. I know someone who went to Sienna handed in her RN NY license has an unencumbered FL RN license and can not get hired with her LPN license which is also unencumbered because employers see she handed in her NY license (which doesn't have any fraud or judgment on her NY license). So things are not really going according to plan in my opinion because people aren't handing in their licenses and they are getting renewed licenses and are working while those who complied are unable to work on their unencumbered licenses.

This is exactly what I was speaking about and no one wants to believe. People have to understand nurses talk so info gets around. The hospital I work they have gotten rid of nurses RN's and Lpns from those schools. And they do a deep background check including schools attended  (transcipts will be evaluated) this has gone on in other hospitals that I know of.  It's really sad to see the dishonesty while others suffer for there actions. Things are not secret like some will  like to believe what was going on in thses schools.

@Lexus L.

Were you able to get your RN license endorsed to NJ and CT?

To ask generally, which states are currently accepting approved Florida program for RN license endorsement?

Many states are rejecting the endorsement application of Florida approved nursing school despite the school did not involve in scam.

Any suggestions please?

Thanks

From what I am seeing, you may have issues. If you want to work in New Jersey you can get a Florida nursing compact license. New Jersey is a nursing compact state so you can work there without endorsement but would have to retain your Florida address. I am not sure if they would give problems on that end by still requesting information about your education. Connecticut is not a compact state and you would have to endorse your Florida license.

Has anyone been able to endorse in any state?

I don't want to go to school all over again,  I put in the work and I am done. 

I was able to endorse to Florida, only because my results were posted on Nursys.

How did you see your result on Nursys?

Hello, 

Did anyone hear anything new with NYC boards?

The Florida board of nursing was able to see it, it's a verification system they have access to.

@N. Lynn,
