The Online Renewal system is available for use at the Louisiana State Board of Nursing Website at http://www.lsbn.state.la.us. In order to streamline the online renewal process we have removed the PIN as a requirement for creating an account online. Just visit our website at http://www.lsbn.state.la.us , click on the Online Services link, then click the Nurse Account Signup link and create an account. Also if you renew your RN and APRN Licenses online you will not recieve your license until mid January; however, your license will be processed and will be able to be verified on the website.
We encourage everyone to utilize the on-line renewal option for the timeliest issuance of your license(s). The Continuing Education (CE) requirements have been waived for this renewal. APRNs must submit verification of current certification since it is a requirement for licensure.
Be sure to fax (225)763-3580 a copy of your AANA Recertification Card to the State Board after you have renewed online. They need this to complete the process.
