Registered Nurse Registry?

Nurses General Nursing

Published

There's an online registry for nursing assistants where you can put in their names and see if they are in good standing.

Is there something like this for nurses? At least one of the nurses I work with is kind of sketchy, so I'd like to check and see what the histories of these nurses are.

Specializes in Pedi.
I have a right to know if they've done something serious. Since I can't search for smaller things then yeah I can report suspicious behavior like I usually do. Thanks you and Pangea about the BON stuff. Absolutely nothing weird about knowing your surroundings: the things I've seen you'd want to be aware, too.

And since there is no disciplinary action listed on the BON's website, clearly they HAVEN'T done anything serious.

Specializes in Hospice.

Just gonna follow this, eat my popcorn and see what unfolds...

Specializes in HH, Peds, Rehab, Clinical.

Why do you feel it's your "right" to know? I can only imagine what kind of treat it must be to work in your presence.

I'm licensed in WI. I don't give my last name out to patients, how would they ever look me up? Besides, if I'd done something so evil to be noted on the DRL, I wouldn't be working with patients anyway.

LOL. Tell the public WI Board of Nursing that. I mean, what are you even doing man? You're saying the public doesn't have the right to view public information when it comes to nursing licenses. If you're here just to argue for the sake of arguing AT LEAST have a point to argue on.

Oh my.

It's one thing to see concerning behavior that makes you uncomfortable and report it. It's entirely another to try to dig up dirty details about someone. What do you hope to gain from this?

I think people are using a loose definition of the word "right" in this thread.
