§ 40-33-38. Renewal of licenses.
(A)A license issued pursuant to this chapter may be renewed biennially or as otherwise provided by the board in regulation. A licensee who has not demonstrated continuing nursing competence, as required by this chapter, is not eligible for renewal or issuance of an active license.
(B)A licensee shall complete the renewal form and submit it to the board with the renewal fee. Upon receipt of the application and the fee, the board shall verify the accuracy of the application and renew the license for the applicable period. If a licensee fails to timely renew his or her license, the license is deemed lapsed at the close of the renewal period, and the licensee may not practice nursing in this State until the licensee is reinstated to practice. The board may reinstate the licensee on payment of a reinstatement fee, the current renewal fee, and demonstration of continued competency satisfactory to the board. The board may deny reinstatement based on evidence of misconduct.
(C)A licensee shall notify the board in writing within fifteen business days of any change of address.
