I recently had a basilar aneurysm rupture which has caused some minor cognitive problems. Does anyone know if there are restrictions to returning to work as a nurse? I tried my bon but have gotten no answers. Im in NC

I would say your limitations are determined by what cognitive issues you have. Your neurologist should be able to help you with this as well.

Your MD is the one who sets limitations, you need to speak with them and then contact your employee health. I know in my dept you cannot work with any limitations or be on "light duty." Good luck!

No one here could possibly know the answer to your question. This needs to be addressed with your physician and your employer, if you have one.

Good luck to you.
