See the new changes for Kentucky Registered Nurse Aides. Visit the Kentucky Nurse Aide Registry site often for updates.
Our online services include change of mailing and/or email address, application status, data roster download, license validation (including nurse aide abuse registry validations), license renewal, and retired license status.
SUBMIT A UNIVERSAL APPLICATION ONLINE: To submit an application for licensure by examination, reinstatement, or endorsement, go to UNIVERSAL APPLICATIONS.
SUBMIT OR UPDATE YOUR EMAIL ADDRESS: To submit or update an email address, go to ADDRESS/EMAIL CHANGE.
PRIMARY SOURCE VERIFICATION:The KBN website is considered primary source verification and is actually the preferred method of licensure validation instead of viewing the license card. Both JCAHO and the Cabinet for Health and Family Services, Office of the Inspector General, consider verification through the website as evidence of licensure. License cards, which are an additional evidence of licensure, generally take 3 to 6 weeks to print.
KBN does primary source verification of an initial applicant's nursing education. See 201 KAR 20:070 and 201 KAR 20:110. See Licensure Validation for additional information.
