Board of Nursing

The Division of Professional Registration and its boards are open during the regular business hours of 8:00a.m. to 5:00p.m. Monday through Friday, excluding state holidays.
Did you know that there is a drop box located in the front of the Professional Registration building? Individuals may leave items for the division and its boards any time. We do ask that all items be placed in a sealed envelope labeled with the board name or name of the individual if not located in a board.
