Active Licensed Practical Nurse licences in Colorado

8,212 active licences carry this exact DORA type — the 21st most numerous of the 92 with a page here, across 367 Colorado cities.

What this licence is

Licensed Practical Nurse is one of the 204 licence types the Colorado Department of Regulatory Agencies issues, in the Nursing family. Practising a regulated profession in Colorado without a current licence is unlawful, which is why DORA publishes this register for the public to check.

When this licence has to be renewed

DORA renews this type on a two year cycle , in even years, with the licence expiring on 31-Aug. That date is the same for everyone holding it — which is why 8,212 renewals fall due together every August.

DORA publishes this in a 344-row table of codes. It is not published anywhere as a calendar. The whole calendar, month by month.

294 of the 8,212 active licences of this type carry a disciplinary action in DORA's file — 3.6%.

This site publishes that count and no more: never who, and never a case number. DORA records the type of action and no reason at all, and the two most common entries statewide are a stipulation and a letter of admonition — agreed outcomes. Every licence counted here is active. Why that line is drawn there.
