The Mission of the Board of Nursing is to protect the public through the regulation of nursing licensure, practice and education, in accordance with SDCL 36-9, SDCL 36-9A, ARSD 20:48, and ARSD 20:62.
Scam alert!
Nurses have received telephone calls from persons falsely claiming to be from the Board. Scammers use spoofed telephone numbers that appear to originate from the SDBON office. The tone of the call may be hostile, and the scammer may falsely claim that a specific action is needed to prevent a nursing license from becoming suspended, such as sending money. Be wary of these scam calls! Do not provide personal information to anyone you do not know or trust. If you receive a suspicious call, call the Board office directly, or report it to the Attorney General's Division of Consumer Protection: 1-800-300-1986.
