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 don't think this is fair at all. There's people waiting to work. The board should investigate people who only went to Carleen, but whoever is a transfer from a different school and wasn't allowed to graduate because of the exit exam, but did all coursework at a different school like Jersey College, must be issue their license. How long people are going to wait? I think they should get together and sue the people responsible for this behind the NYS board of nursing. You know what I mean, sue the people not the institution of the board of nursing. It's ridiculous, they should have better judgment than this

Because all of these schools except for 2 are from Florida the NYS BON( the ones who make the rules) have stated any present-day school not listed as accredited from this list ( https://mqa-internet.doh.state.fl.us/MQASearchServices/NursingPrograms)  is on hold.

Any closed schools in Florida are on hold b/c we need to investigate why the school closed.

To be honest, calling 518-474-3817 ext 280 is for the processing unit all they are responsible for is the processing of documents, and are told what to do and say.

Who you should be calling is the NYS Nursing Board the ones who are making these rules and decisions. Maybe that would put a fire under people to move along with the process and decision-making.   Email: [email protected], Phone: 518-474-3817, Press 1 then ext. 120, Fax: 518-474-3706

Or try this email [email protected] which is the recommended email for people to use who went to these fraudulent schools

Unfortunately it dosent work like that.  And NY board is looking why there are do many people going to Florida schools but live in NY. It's a very high number so it raised a red flag that's why there investigating all these schools now. Florida standards are not the same as NY  when u look at these private schools and they all have bad failing rates

Yes the bad failing rates were a red flag but the main thing is that if the owners of the schools didn't start doing fraud to make a quick buck on the side then we wouldn't even be here on this forum. We would all be working.

That is true.  And blame those nurses that are working with defrauding the system to get by.

NYBON still has not done anything about those nurses with active ny license that are working

Honestly NY is not doing anything about it and have not for months. The next option is to retest because they're not even willing to release our the passing scores I don't even think that's something they discussed because I'm sure star2022 would have said something about that.

True I know people not from Florida school, but the schools in New Jersey that didn't graduate them therefore never sent for the ATT because of an exit exam and have still an active license. I'm the meantime, there's people struggling waiting to be licensed. People get together and sue the people in the board behind this nonsense
