Continuing Education
Twenty (20) hours of annual continuing education is required to maintain a license to practice as a Nursing Home Administrator in Idaho.
Rule 200.01 reads, “In order to be credited toward the educational requirements of the Act, a seminar or course of study must be relevant to nursing home administration as determined by the Board and sponsored by accredited universities or colleges, State or National health related associations, and/or approved by NCERS (National Continuing Education Review Service).”
CE providers may obtain Board approval by submitting a completed Continued Education Approval Form.

Audits
The Board conducts annual audits to ensure compliance with the continuing education requirements. Audits may be initiated any time after you renew your license. By signing your renewal application and answering “Yes” to the question that you have met the continuing education requirements, you are certifying to the Board that you have already obtained proof of having completed the required continuing education.
If you have questions about the continuing education or audit requirements, you may e-mail the Board at: nha@dopl.idaho.gov.
