The Nevada State Board of Nursing reported that a registered nurse executed a Voluntary Surrender of License in Lieu of Other Disciplinary Action during the reporting period of October 16 through December 8, 2025. The surrender was entered for violation of NRS 632.347(1)(e), which covers use of controlled substances, dangerous drugs or alcohol in a manner that is dangerous or impairs practice, and NRS 632.347(1)(g), unprofessional conduct.
The Board also cited NAC 632.890(18), diverting equipment or drugs for personal or unauthorized use, and NAC 632.890(27), customary standards of practice. The published summary does not say which drug was involved, where the nurse worked or how the matter was brought to the Board.
Under Nevada law, a voluntary surrender of a nursing license is treated as prima facie evidence that the licensee committed or expected to commit a violation of the nursing practice act. The surrender resolved the matter without a contested hearing, and the Board's list does not describe any further conditions.
