   k10-rn posted a topic in Recovery

   Hello! I have a friend in KY who has gotten herself into quite a bit of trouble. She is very sick and I am trying to help. Long story short, the papers from the board were discovered after searching through her things while she was in the hospital be...

3. Florida IPN - Released to work

   k10-rn replied to deltakappamu's topic in Recovery

   Well how sweet are you?! I am happy to share if it helps, it is my duty to pay it forward. I owe much of my success to other addicts who were brave enough to share their stories/experiences with me. Having support from people who are "like me" gave m...

   I just entered the world of dialysis. I have only worked in the emergency department as an RN, this is going to be a lot different than what I am used to. I am excited to learn new things, I am also nervous. Emergency nursing was my niche, until I go...

5. Today is a good day. Today is a scary day.

   k10-rn replied to RN2364's topic in Recovery

   I am in Ohio. My day was good, just the usual paperwork, videos and setting up passwords. I feel the same as you do when it comes to supporting our peers. There isn't anything in my area. Luckily I found a nurse who graciously walked me through this ...

8. Florida IPN - Released to work

   k10-rn replied to deltakappamu's topic in Recovery

   That very same question haunted me... I decided that it was better for me to start off with "explaining myself". My reasoning- if I start off with this not so super news, I still have the rest of the interview to show them that I am worth it! So, my ...

10. Does is ever end?

    k10-rn replied to dekyrn's topic in Recovery

    I am in Ohio, I have some of the same restrictions. I just finally got a job at Davita as a dialysis nurse and the only restriction of yours that I can see causing an issue there is the one where you can't be the only RN on site. However, every clini...

13. What gets you through?

    k10-rn replied to SororAKS's topic in Recovery

    Through my journey... the hardest thing thus far has been finding a job and handling rejection. Everything else was easy because I wanted my life back. It was all a choice to follow rules and succeed. Each milestone through this made me PROUD. The co...

15. Pre employment drug test in Ohio

    k10-rn replied to Tinaaaa's topic in Recovery

    With experience in dealing with Ohio Board of Nursing, DO NOT go at this alone. I just got my license reinstated after getting in trouble and you do not, no matter what, want to face the Board without representation. Your livelihood is worth paying ...
