| To Report a Change in Name or Mailing Address | ||
| Name Change: | ||
| It is the responsibility of every LPN with a Louisiana license to notify the Board office immediately in the event of a name change. Notification must be in writing and a copy of a legal document granting a name change, as well as a copy of your current LPN license, must be included. The fee is $30, payable by cash (in person) or money order (to the LA STATE BOARD OF PRACTICAL NURSE EXAMINERS). Mail to 3421 North Causeway Blvd, Ste 505, Metairie, La. 70002. | ||
| NOTE: There is no charge for a name change made at the time of license renewal. However, if you have a name change to request, you cannot renew your license online. You must renew your license through the mail. Just submit your request with your renewal application accompanied by a copy of a marriage license, divorce decree or other legal document which supports your name change request. | ||
| REMEMBER: The name on your license is the name you must use when signing nursing notes, medication administration records, etc. | ||
