SF 1643 Minnesota Senate · 2025-2026 Regular Session

Nurse temporary permits extension from 60 to 90 days

This bill extends the validity period for temporary nursing permits in Minnesota from 60 to 90 days. It directly affects nurses seeking licensure by endorsement from another state or those enrolled in refresher courses, as outlined in Minnesota Statutes section 148.212. The key change modifies the existing rule to allow these applicants 90 days (instead of 60) to complete their licensing process or complete their refresher program. This adjustment provides additional time for these nurses to meet requirements without losing their temporary practice authorization.
