(A) A nursing home administrator's license or a community residential care facility administrator's license is not transferable. (B) A license must be renewed upon dates established by the department. A licensee must submit an application for renewal, payment of the renewal fee, and proof of compliance with continuing education requirements established by the board in regulation. If a license is not renewed in accordance with this subsection, the license lapses on the expiration date. Further practice may be sanctioned as unlicensed practice. (C) A nursing home administrator or community residential care facility administrator previously licensed in this State whose license has lapsed for failure to renew on or before the expiration date of the license may seek reinstatement of the license within one year of the expiration date by submitting an application with the renewal fee, payment of a penalty as provided in the fee schedule, proof of compliance with continuing education requirements, and an affidavit that he or she has not engaged in practice as an administrator during the period in which the license was lapsed. (D) If a license has lapsed for more than one year, the individual shall submit an initial application and satisfy the requirements of Section 40-35-40 to become relicensed. (E) The board may deny renewal to an applicant who has committed an act that would be grounds for disciplinary action. (F) The board may issue a nursing home administrator's license or a community residential care facility administrator's license to a person who holds a current license as a nursing home administrator or community residential care facility administrator from another jurisdiction if the board finds that the standards for licensure in the other jurisdiction are at least the substantial equivalent of those in this State and if the applicant has passed the national and South Carolina portions of the licensure examination and is otherwise qualified.
