RECIPROCITY:
Q. Does Florida require out-of-state certified nursing assistants applying for reciprocity to complete any exams?
A. Florida does not require the testing for those candidates who have been verified as being actively certified and in good standing in another state. Otherwise, you will be required to take the written and performance exams in order to be placed on Florida’s Registry.
Q. Am I required to have a background check?
A. Florida now requires an FBI background check for the out of state CNA before approving for a Florida certificate.
Good luck and welcome to Florida.
