For those with questions regarding convictions

Nurses General Nursing

Published

If you read a few of my post you will see that I have a felony conviction and I was very concerned about whether or not I was going to be able to obtain my nursing license. I graduated in December 04. I submitted my application to the board of nursing. I was open and honest from the beginning to the end about what had happened. I received my ATT and am happy to say that I am now officially a professional registered nurse. However, I am having a hard time finding employment but I will not get discouraged. I have no restrictions or probationary periods on my license. The purpose of my thread is to all who have records, do not lie to the board be very honest about what happened and what you have done to better your self and what you have learned from your mistakes and maybe you will be able to sit for your exam. Please do not get discouraged and do not let any one else discourage you either.

Specializes in Cardiology.

Honesty does pay off. Good luck on your job search.
