Arizona Nursing Board Vs. California Nursing Board

There is quite a difference between the California Board and other states’ Boards, like Arizona. The Arizona Board of Registered Nurses is simplified compared to the California BRN, and California is a little more complex and has different qualifications and rules. Both California and the Arizona BRN serve the same purpose in protecting the health and safety of the public. Here are some similarities and differences between the California and Arizona Board of Registered Nursing. 

  • The Nursing Board of Arizona has a faster license verification and processing time of 48 hours, great for travel nurses. The California Board processing time is about 8-12 weeks, and all documents have to be submitted prior.
  • In both states, anyone can submit a claim against a nurse on your off work. 
  • The Arizona BRN’s website is simple and easy to find information on licensing rules, certifications, disciplines, and complaints.
  • As for license expiration dates, the California Board requires nurses to renew every two years. Arizona has different expiration dates depending on various requirements and factors. A nursing license can be in good standing for about four years without issues or convictions.
