1. Determine Eligibility

Before starting the endorsement process, it is important to ensure that you meet the eligibility criteria set by the Rhode Island Department of Health. The basic requirements include holding an active CMA license in your current state of residence and having a clean record with no disciplinary actions. For a detailed list of eligibility requirements, please visit the Rhode Island Department of Health's website at [insert link].

2. Obtain Verification of Certification

In order to proceed with the endorsement, you must request your current state licensing agency to provide a Verification of Certification directly to the Rhode Island Department of Health. This verifies that you hold an active CMA license in your current state. Contact your state licensing agency for the necessary documentation and instructions on sending the verification to Rhode Island.

3. Complete the Endorsement Application

Once you have received the Verification of Certification, it's time to complete the endorsement application. Visit the Rhode Island Department of Health's website and navigate to the CMA endorsement section. Fill out the application form accurately and provide all required supporting documents, including your verification of certification, identification, and any additional documentation as requested. Pay attention to the application deadlines and fees, which can be found on the same website.

4. Background Check and Fingerprinting

As part of the endorsement process, you will be required to undergo a background check and fingerprinting. The Rhode Island Department of Health will provide instructions on how to schedule an appointment for fingerprinting. It is essential to follow these instructions carefully and ensure that your fingerprints are submitted electronically or via a certified fingerprint technician. Any fees associated with the background check and fingerprinting should be paid directly to the designated vendor. Details on this process can be found on the Rhode Island Department of Health's website.

5. Submit Application and Fees

Once you have completed all the necessary steps, double-check your endorsement application for accuracy and completion. Gather all required documents, including the endorsement application, verification of certification, identification, and any other supporting documentation, and submit them to the Rhode Island Department of Health along with the specified application fees. Be sure to keep copies of all submitted documents for your records.
