We depend on nurses to support the healthcare system and provide the majority of care for patients, both in physician offices and hospitals or other large facilities. Nursing can be a rewarding and challenging career path, and many people choose this line of service-based employment. Becoming a nurse requires different types of professional licensure, depending on your education and experience. If you need assistance obtaining a license, or if your license might be in jeopardy, you want the right Cook County nursing license defense attorney fighting for your future. Contact 1818 Advocacy Group for assistance.
The Illinois Department of Financial and Professional Regulation (IDFPR) oversees nursing licensure in the state, and the department handles several types of nursing licenses, such as:
To obtain a license, you must meet all of the educational requirements, pass the right examination, and file an application with the IDFPR. If IDFPR finds you unsuitable for licensure, the department has the power to deny your license, even if you completed nursing school and passed your exam. It is important to have an experienced license attorney review your application, especially if you might have something in your past that may raise questions from the board.
Once you have your nursing license, it is not a guarantee you will keep it forever. Instead, you are expected to abide by all laws and administrative rules that apply to nursing in Illinois. If the IDFPR receives a complaint that you have violated a rule or are otherwise unfit to continue practicing, the department will not hesitate to initiate proceedings that could result in the suspension or revocation of your license. Some issues that might lead to this situation include:
