   newmommy26 replied to newmommy26's topic in Recovery

   1st time ... is that an okay thing to do...is it legal? I am just wondering because I thought you had to let them know during interview process that your license was under stipulations. Is that not the case until a job offer is made. See this is why ...

   newmommy26 replied to newmommy26's topic in Recovery

   Esme12, Wow are you serious. That is extremmely messed up. I am actually speechless that it has gotten to the point in nursing where if the nurse is not the perfect likeness of Florence Nightengale with no problems or hardships he/she had to overcome...

   Thank you twoyear for the thought of recording I will be researching that at a later date;) I have done further research and it seems that as with a lot of the laws concerning employment and rights it is set by people setting the precedents by not ba...

   newmommy26 replied to newmommy26's topic in Recovery

   Viva, Thank you for your comment. You are right about that it is hard to prove discrimination, especially in the nursing / healthcare field when it comes to how we care for patients. Even before I was under the BON I had a job and was let go because ...

    newmommy26 posted a topic in Recovery

    So for the past 106 days it has been all about AA and living and breathing the BON/PNAP. Today I go back to grad school and back to really focusing on something other than nursing and sobriety. My masters is in Health Care Administration and is about...

    newmommy26 replied to Twoyearnurse's topic in Recovery

    One more thing and I will let it go. Just like we ask that people refrain from using foul language on this board, maybe we could also ask that unless your comment has to do with addiction, nursing boards, or issues related to addiction keep it to you...

    newmommy26 replied to Twoyearnurse's topic in Recovery

    Thank you Catmom. I know you may think you were being helpful, but in actuality I interpreted your comment as an insult to free flowing writing and thought. It was my impression that this was a forum in which I could write in any which way I wanted. ...

    newmommy26 replied to Twoyearnurse's topic in Recovery

    Oh wow what a topic. In the past 84 days I am grateful for being a recovering alcoholic and just the right time in my life and at just the right place. Guess that was because God had His plan all along for my life and while I was out there making a m...
