CRNA’s not holding a Masters Degree will not be “grandfathered in” after 07/01/2005.

If you have Providers you think will be interested in Tennessee licensure who do not have a Masters Degree, you may want to notify them. Per the Tennessee Board of Nursing (website), if their application is received at the Board of Nursing before July 1, 2005, even though not processed, they can be grandfathered in. After July 1, 2005, if a CRNA does not hold a Mastes degreee, he/she will not work in Tennessee.
