Instructions for completing the fingerprinting requirement for the Nevada Physical Therapy Board Licensure Application
Application for "Graduate of Physical Therapy" Designation
NRS 640.120 provides that a person who has applied for licensure as a physical therapist or physical therapist assistant and who meets the qualifications set forth in NRS 640.080 or 640.092, except subsection 3 of NRS 640.080 or subsection 4 of NRS 640.092, as applicable, is temporarily exempt from licensure and may practice physical therapy during the temporary exemption if the person meets certain criteria. Those guidelines include a completed and approved application, including fingerprinting results, submitted to the Board office, and supervision by a licensed physical therapist who is present on-site. Pursuant to these provisions, each applicant wishing to be considered a “Graduate of physical therapy” must submit a completed affidavit to the Nevada Physical Therapy Board.
