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?

I have no idea, I'm sure there going to do some deciding. Probably take sometime. I'm sure there going to look into alot of schools. Due to people doing these illegal things. The bad part is that the good ones get hurt in the process.

Hi! Did you guys know that they are also revoking nurses license from med life, thought the FBI was only investigating those 3 schools listed??? 

I heard Med life was a franchise and had 4 Locations. She was the owner of the palm beach location which was closed apparently since 2017 . She the palm beach owner decided to open up the palm beach school under the licensure that was issued to her closed med life location that was and allegedly sell backdated transcripts. I'm assuming the transcripts she sold had palm beach name but med life (WPB) school license information . In the charging docs u can see the school is listed as such . I could be incorrect so don't quote me . 

So basically med life and palm beach was the same school

When you goggle med life institute wpb. Palm beach school of nursing information show up. 

Wow this story just gets worse 

@Joannaj not the first time FBI invesgated that school. First was for overcharging students

Medlife was one of the branches. She wanted to be separate and change the name to palm beach

Med life and palm are the same school? ??? Have they came up with a decision, what are they going to do with the students. Some of us put in work. Med life was a closed school ? 

They claim to have sent out letters already 

@LolaNurse there was four locations of medlife. She decided to separate herself and change the name to palm beach. Palm Beach was closed for sometime so I don't know why they were still taking students. It's up to the board. And thats something you have to ask them. But I think and that just my opinion that no one will be moving forward. And the ones with license who knows

I don't believe they sent everyone letters yet. Probably still going through names

To my understanding med life is placed in this fiasco by default because she used the west palm beach ML license information for her new school which was palm beach school of nursing .

The other medlife locations were not affected by this to my understanding. 

I believe the WPB location has been closed since 2017.
