   That's what I'm afraid of. I could comply until we move. My attorney is discussing it with t the BON today. I definitely don't want to lose my license

2. Military spouses on probation

   Brady29 posted a topic in General Nursing

   Are there any nurses on probation with spouses in the military? I do have an attorney that has asked the BON before I sign a consent agreement. I would just feel better knowing what to expect. My fiancee is in the military and we will PCS overseas n...

5. Dispensing meds from a punch card?

   Brady29 replied to Brady29's topic in Geriatric

   I appreciate all the responses. I wish this facility had a policy. I needed reassurance that I'm not the only one who gives meds this way. I really wish the other nurses would have just asked me first instead of reporting I didn't give them.

   That's what I don't understand. This facility disposes of meds that were not given.

9. Disciplined nurses work as an MA

   Brady29 replied to Brady29's topic in Recovery

   I completely agree. They shouldn't try to ban you from anything non nursing. My lawyer told me the BON initially didn't want me to work in the medical field at all. It took a strongly worded letter for them to not argue it. I think it's ridiculous th...

10. Disciplined nurses work as an MA

    Brady29 replied to Brady29's topic in Recovery

    In some states they are certified. In Arkansas they are not. I would still have to inform my employer of the disciplinary action and they have to fill out quarterly reviews on my performance for me to comply with probation or a suspension followed by...

    Brady29 replied to gnurse2089's topic in Recovery

    A surrender will put you on the exclusion list. No acceptions but you can apply to have it removed after 5 years. My attorney advised me about this. I know it narrows options but their are company's that don't accept either such as most urgent care c...

12. Nurse in Recovery

    Brady29 replied to AmberreneeRN's topic in Recovery

    Have you considered getting additional certifications such as case management? I know my BON has a list of certifications they recognize such as CCRN or ABMCN. It's not a college coarse or anything but you have to pass an exam. I think it would be be...
