Eligibility
VSOs are required to be Veterans themselves, which we have found puts Veterans at ease, as they may have to talk about their prior service. Qualifications include licensure as a Licensed Practical Nurse in Missouri – in good standing; or a recent graduate of an accredited nursing program may practice as a graduate nurse until results of first licensure examination are received or until 90 days after graduation, whichever occurs first, as allowed by the Missouri Board of Nursing. This position does not require any relevant experience but we are looking for someone with a current Missouri Class E drivers license or is able to attain it within 60 days of being hired.
