Applications and Forms
As of May 1, 2025, DOH no longer sends printed certificates and paper renewal notices to licensed professionals.Notifications will be sent by email, and approved certificates will be available through the HELMS portal. |
You can now apply and renew health professional licenses online through the Health Enforcement and Licensing Management System (HELMS).
To access HELMS, use your Secure Access Washington (SAW) account and add the “Health Professional and Facility Licensing (HELMS)” service button under services from the Department of Health. This service will prompt you to create a HELMS account by matching your information to existing licensing information or to create a new account for new applicants.
