I'm in the process of APRN licensure with the Texas BON, and they found deficiencies in my RN education — specifically in Adult Med-Surg, Psychiatric, and Geriatric Nursing theory and clinical hours.
Does anyone know of schools or programs in Texas where I can take only these specific remedial courses (not a full degree program)? I've been searching but haven't found any options. Any recommendations or experiences would be appreciated!
So how did it go as far as the Texas License application? I am applying for RN LICENSE endorsement in texas, I just heard back from them stating I am deficient with 28hours Geriatric/Gerontology theory and 2 hour Geriatric clinical.
They did not say I was short on those hours 5 years ago, the APRN department is different than the RN department, hopefully they don't ask for those hours for my RN, so far my RN license is active.
I have an active Fl RN and Ny license and was not told that I am deficient as well, I did the registration 8 years ago. And so when I applied for Tx RN license endorsement I have to do the cgfns ces again and that's when they issued the report to the txBON that I am deficient. ☹️
