- The online renewal forms do not renew a Nurse Aide II listing with the North Carolina Board of Nursing.
Technology Guidelines:
- Do not use the Internet Explorer web browser when completing the forms.
- Do not use a smart phone when completing the forms.
- Do not enter commas (,) in the text fields to separate information in the Online Renewal Form or the Online Employment Verification Form.

First Name and Last Name Requirements:

- Do not include apostrophe’s when entering the First Name or Last Name. If the First Name or Last Name includes an apostrophe in the registry, and that is the correct spelling of the name, then there is no need to complete the Name and Address Change Form.
Registered Nurse Guidelines:
