Nevada Revised Statutes Section 632.341 - Professions, Occupations and Businesses

Renewal and reinstatement of licenses; transfer to inactive list. [Effective on the date of the repeal of the federal law requiring each state to establish procedures for withholding, suspending and restricting the professional, occupational and recreational licenses for child support arrearages and for noncompliance with certain processes relating to paternity or child support proceedings.]

1. Every nurse licensed under the provisions of this chapter must renew his license biennially on a date or according to a schedule of dates prescribed by regulation of the Board. If the date or schedule is changed, the Board may prorate the required fee.

2. A licensee who fails to renew his license may have his license reinstated by completing an application for renewal and payment of the reinstatement fee in addition to the renewal fee.

3. Upon written request to the Board, a licensee in good standing may cause his name and license to be transferred to an inactive list, and the licensee may not practice nursing during the time the license is inactive and no renewal fee accrues. If an inactive licensee desires to resume the practice of nursing, the Board, except as otherwise provided in subsection 4, shall renew the license upon demonstration, if deemed necessary by the Board, that the licensee is then qualified and competent to practice, and upon completion of an application and payment of the current fee for biennial renewal of the license.

4. The Board may:

(a) Issue a temporary license to an applicant for the renewal or reinstatement of his license pending final action by the Board upon the application.

(b) After a hearing, refuse to renew or reinstate the license of any person who, at any time since the most recent renewal of his license or the issuance of his original license if it has not been renewed, has been out of compliance with the requirements of this chapter.
