Monitoring for the Oregon State Board of Nursing

In October, 2022, the Oregon State Board of Nursing (OSBN) voted to discontinue participation in HPSP. As a result, OSBN licensees who have come to the attention of the Board no longer have access to a confidential alternative to discipline option. Any disciplinary action taken by the Board will remain on the licensee’s public record in perpetuity.

Current OSBN-licensed participants in HPSP are permitted to remain in the program until they successfully complete or are terminated from the program due to non-compliance.

Self-Referral – If not currently under investigation by the Board, licensees may choose to self-refer to HPSP for monitoring if they have a diagnosis of substance use disorder and/or mental health disorder. Licensees who self-refer to HPSP and successfully complete four* years of monitoring with two years of supervised practice, without having any non-compliance events, will graduate the program without Board involvement. Supervised practice is required for the entire period of monitoring when the licensee is working.

*Two years for licensees with a mental health only diagnosis and a minimum of one year of supervised practice. Supervised practice is required for the entire period of monitoring when the licensee is working.
