How Delaware Licensed Practical/Vocational Nurse license verification works

A Licensed Practical/Vocational Nurse in Delaware is licensed by the DE Board of Nursing. PrimaryCheck looks the license up live at the board's public verification system (board lookup) by license number, or by name when no number is supplied. The record the board publishes is captured as evidence, hashed, and rendered into a proof PDF.

Fields returned for this board: license_number license_type board licensed_by status issued effective expires multistate city state zip actions documents flags.

Board note: DELPROS (Salesforce Visualforce remoting) findLicensesForOwner + details page; RN L1-, LPN L2-, CRNA L6-, NP/CNS LG- etc.; details page prints Single/Compact State Status (multistate).
