To illustrate one type of complaint that a nurse might face before the Texas Board of Nursing and the discipline that might result from a complaint, we can explore the details of the disciplinary case entitled In the Matter of Registered Nurse License Number 941003. This case involved a Texas Board of Nursing (BON) disciplinary complaint concerning an alleged violation of Tex. Occ. Code,...

As the "human face" of healthcare, they have a whole host of responsibilities, and in some cases those responsibilities overlap with the responsibilities of doctors. But nurses must be very careful not to cross over into providing assistance to patients that goes beyond the scope of their authority. There...

Anyone can file these complaints, and they can result in serious professional repercussions, including revocation of the license to practice as a nurse in the state. Such a result generally means that the possibility of licensure elsewhere is off the table as well. This all amounts to a lot of wasted money, wasted time, and wasted...

Complaints to the Texas Board of Nursing sometimes have the unfortunate outcome of revocation of licensure, mainly where violations of relevant code and rules are considered egregious enough. Of course, usually, there is some latitude in the discipline that the Board doles out, allowing it to be lenient where it believes improvement is still possible. But there...

It is responsible not just for the initial licensure of nurses—in the course of which it naturally takes into account the quality and amount of prospective nurses' education—but for ensuring that every licensed nurse maintains the quality of care they are providing throughout their careers. And as part of this, we find the requirement that every nurse demonstrate their ongoing competency to...

But, in some circumstances, the Board may be understanding and permit a nurse to have their license reinstated. Of course, this will come with some prerequisite actions on the nurse’s part. The criteria for reinstatement requires that any evidence a nurse puts forward must indicate that permitting the nurse to practice...

At times this Board will offer an Agreed Order, which sets forth particular sanctions against a nurse. The Agreed Order is explicitly designed to describe the type of discipline to which a nurse who accepts it will be subjected. This includes any requirements the nurse under consideration will need to complete, such as any sort of remedial education, or a set...

This would be problematic for several reasons. For one thing, the Board of Nursing requires that all nurses—and those in the process of applying to become nurses—give the Board notice in writing of their change of address within ten days of the change, along with the details of their new address...
