Application for Reinstatement of Nurse Aide Certification, #08-4365, Revised 01/2010.
A Nurse Aide Certification that has been lapsed for more than 12 months but less than
five years, may be reinstated if the applicant meets the qualifications. (122 k)

Applicants must submit fingerprint cards and pay a fingerprinting processing fee of $59.00. Licenses will not be issued without the results of a state and federal background check. Temporary permits will not be issued unless an applicant has submitted the required fingerprint cards and processing fee.

Alaska Statutes are passed by the legislature. Regulations (also called the Alaska Administrative Code) are rules adopted by the board to implement, interpret, and make specific the statutes. Both statutes and regulations have the force of law.

AS 08.68 and regulations 12 AAC 44 specifically govern the practice of nursing and certified nurse aides. AS 08.01 - 08.03 and regulations 12 AAC 02 apply to all professions regulated by the division.

Proposed regulations are advertised in Alaska newspapers and we invite public comment on them. If you would like to receive notice of proposed regulations, please write to the regulations specialist and request that your name be added to the Board of Nursing interested parties list. Please advise us if you move or wish your name removed from the mailing list.
