• Verification obtained through our online system does not ensure that the person presenting him/her self is, in fact, the rightful owner of the license.  You should always visually inspect both the LPN license and (at least on initial hire) the LPN's drivers license (or some other State issued photo I.D.) to compare signatures and photos against the live signature and physical likeness of the LPN presenting him/her self to you.  You should have the LPN's license number before entering the verification site as it may be needed to narrow down the search results and to ensure you have the correct LPN.

• LPNs are required to have their license with them at work.  Employers should regularly spot check licenses by requesting licensure presentation "on demand". 

• Check to be sure that the license does not appear to have been altered in any way.

• Check the face of the license to determine whether or not it is stamped with "PROBATION" or with any other marking indicating that the license is encumbered (and may require special handling by an employer).

• Despite our best efforts to inform employers of disciplinary actions taken by the Board, changes in licensure status as a result of disciplinary action can happen at any time, including after an online verification has been obtained.  Reminder: Our office will verify disciplinary status free of charge, during normal business hours, by phone, mail, fax or email.

• Temporary work permits are not included in the online verification system at this time.  To verify a permit, you must submit a written request, on letterhead, providing the applicant's name and permit number, along with a $5.00 fee per applicant, payable by company check or money order, to:  Louisiana State Board of Practical Nurse Examiners (or LSBPNE), 3421 North Causeway Blvd, Ste 505, Metairie, LA 70002.

• The fee is $5.00 per verification.  Fees are  *** NON REFUNDABLE ***   Payment is accepted by Visa or MasterCard.
