    Summary:

    The board acted to eliminate the requirement for an applicant for licensure as a nursing home administrator to take an examination on Virginia law and regulations and substitute a requirement that the applicant attest to having an understanding of the law and regulation. An amendment to 18VAC95-20-225, Licensure by endorsement, was omitted in error in the submission that was published on June 9, 2008.

    18VAC95-20-225. Qualifications for licensure by endorsement.

    The board may issue a license to any person who:

    1. Holds a current, unrestricted license from any state or the District of Columbia; and

    2. Meets one of the following conditions:

    a. Has practiced nursing home administration for one year; or

    b. Has education and experience equivalent to qualifications required by this chapter and has provided written evidence of those qualifications at the time of application for licensure; and.

    3. Has successfully completed the state examination.
