Minimum Qualifications *This title is part of the New York Hiring for Emergency Limited Placement Statewide Program (NY HELPS). (*Please see below for further information).

Eligible for transfer, or must meet the following minimum qualifications:

Must be a qualified employee of New York State and have had one year of permanent competitive or 55-b/55-c service as follows:

Promotional Qualifications: Possession of a license and current registration as a registered professional nurse in New York State AND two years of service in any Grade 18 or higher position that requires a registered professional nurse license; OR one year of service in any Grade 20 or higher position that requires a registered professional nurse license.

Non-Competitive Qualifications: Possession of a license and current registration as a registered professional nurse in New York State; AND three years of post-licensure clinical nursing experience. One year of this experience must have been primarily working in the development, implementation, or administration of an infection control program.

Substitution:
1. A bachelor’s degree in nursing may substitute for one year of post-licensure clinical nursing experience.

2. A master’s degree in nursing may substitute for two years of post-licensure clinical nursing experience.

Possession of a current Certified in Infection Control (CIC) certificate issued by the Certification Board of Infection Control and Epidemiology may substitute for the one year of infection control program experience.

For the duration of the NY HELPS Program, this title maybe filled via a non-competitive appointment, which means no examination is required but all candidates must meet the minimum qualifications of the title for which they apply.

At a future date (within one year of permanent appointment), it is expected employees hired under NY HELPS will have their non-competitive employment status converted to competitive status, without having to complete in an examination. Employees will then be afforded with all of the same rights and privileges of competitive class employees of New York State. While serving permanently in a NY HELPS title, employees may take part in any promotion examination for which they are qualified.

Additional Comments Work hours to be confirmed at time of interview.

Some positions may require additional credentials or a background check to verify your identity.
