PURPOSE: This rule defines the criteria that a nursing program must meet for approval by the Missouri State Board of Nursing as a participating program in the professional and practical nursing student loan program.
(1) The board shall designate as approved for participation in the professional and practical nursing student loan program those Missouri nursing programs which meet the following criteria:
(A) The nursing program
leads to initial licensure as a professional or practical nurse and is
accredited as a program of professional or practical nursing by the Missouri
State Board of Nursing; or
(B) The
nursing program does not lead to initial licensure, but offers a formal course
of instruction leading to a bachelor of science degree in nursing or a master
of science degree in nursing and the nursing program annually submits to the
Missouri State Board of Nursing an application for approval as a participating
school, which provides evidence of-
1. The
existence of a separate and distinct nursing department within the
degree-granting institution; and
2.
A curriculum plan incorporating both nursing theory and clinical nursing
experience as integral components of the course of instruction.
(2) Student Eligibility.
(A) The State Board of Nursing
will consider the following factors to determine whether an eligible student is
approved for participation in the nursing student loan program:
1. Criminal convictions;
2. Whether applicant's nursing license has
been disciplined by the Missouri State Board of Nursing or any other licensing
board;
3. Whether the applicant has
been denied a nursing license by any state board of nursing;
4. Whether there are any current or past
complaints filed against the nursing license of the applicant;
5. Whether the applicant has been placed on
the Department of Social Service's Employee Disqualification List; or
6. Any other information which would indicate
that licensure of the applicant would not be in the public interest.
