Upon the completion of a department-approved medication assistant I competency evaluation program by a certified nurse aide or nurse aide, or department-approved medication assistant II competency evaluation program by a certified nurse aide and application to the department, the department will add information to the certified nurse aide or nurse aide's registry listing verifying the completion of the medication assistant I or II program. 3. Information included on the registry must include name, address, social security number, birth date, registry categories, the date the nurse aide became eligible for entry on the registry, and the place of employment. The social security number will not be included in registry information released to the public. 4. The department shall include documentation of validated findings of abuse, neglect, misappropriation of resident property, or other misconduct by the certified nurse aide, home health aide, or nurse aide or medication assistant I or II on the registry when validated by the department. 5. Certified nurse aide applicants for the nurse aide registry who submit proof of meeting the requirements of another jurisdiction will be granted reciprocity and entered on the nurse aide registry and may use the title "certified nurse aide". The individual must meet North Dakota requirements for active registry status. 6. Nurse aides meeting the waiver provisions of twenty-four months of continuous employment as a nurse aide prior to December 19, 1989, granted by the department will be listed on the registry with a special designation. This designation will signify the nurse aide has been waived from training and testing requirements but is not certified.
