Certification or Licensing
The legal nurse consultant certified (LNCC) program is the only certification in legal nurse consulting recognized by the American Association of Legal Nurse Consultants. Administered by the American Legal Nurse Consultant Certification Board, it is the only legal nurse consulting certification approved by the Accreditation Board for Specialty Nursing Certification (ABSNC). The LNCC program promotes the recognition of experience and knowledge of the legal nurse consulting specialty practice of nursing. The certification, which is voluntary, is renewed every five years through continuing education or reexamination and continued practice in the specialty.
You must pass a licensing exam to become a nurse. Licensing is required in all 50 states, and license renewal or continuing education credits are also required periodically. In some cases, licensing in one state will automatically grant licensing in reciprocal states. For more information, contact your state's nursing board. (See the National Council of State Boards of Nursing Web site at https://www.ncsbn.org/index.htm for contact information.)
