I am surprised by this. Make sure you documented who you spoke with regarding this so if this would happen to be untrue, you have a name of a person who gave you this information.
This is so important, and so many don't. Unfortunately, even if you do keep detailed records, whomever you communicated with can still deny it. For this reason, I always counsel those communicating with the BON to use e-mail as much as possible.

Hello,
I am an LPN licensed in WV and the Ohio Board of Nursing has disciplined my license, suspending my license for a year. I was originally disciplined by WV board for failure to complete CEU's in 2011. When I applied for reinstatement of Ohio licensure in 2015 I failed to report the discipline from WV in 2011 and therefore the subsequent suspension.
I need to know how this affects my WV licensure and my ability to work.
I currently am working as a biometric screener; independently contracted through Summit Health/Quest Diagnostics. As I understand it, I am not practicing as a nurse but the job does require a nursing license or other medical training.
I have no plans to renew my Ohio license or be employed as a nurse in Ohio ever again.
Does the suspension from Ohio affect my WV license?
Thank you. I am new here.
