CRIMINAL BACKGROUND CHECK REPORT
For information from the Arkansas State Board of Nursing regarding criminal background checks, CLICK HERE.
To comply with mandates from clinical agencies utilized by JRSON, students are required upon initial enrollment and annually to have a criminal background check. These checks will be performed by an outside agency at the student’s expense. Results will be released confidentially to the Director of JRSON and to the student. The school will review reports of student criminal activity, including but not limited to arrest or conviction, and take action as deemed appropriate. Individuals convicted of a specific crime may not be eligible to take the NCLEX-RN as identified in Arkansas Code 17-87-312.
