ok- now i see, & this is why i asked that particular question. what is holding you back now is not the incident from whatever many years ago- it is the decision you made to take that drink just a short while ago when you were under board order to abstain from alcohol & drugs. sorry- i don't mean to sound harsh- but those are the facts. that said, i think it is highly likely that TPAPN will require you to go through IOP- which will mean it will be several weeks into IOP before you will be released to look for a nursing job. i'm sure you already know this- but the entire time you are in TPAPN, you must be 100% drug & alcohol free. you must celebrate any & all wonderful events in your life without alcohol!! best of luck- & do keep us posted. :unsure:

I realize it was a bad decision I, along with everyone here in this forum, experienced how it can ruin your life. I'm just ready to move forward.

Oh yea. I'm staying on top of everything! NO substance is worth my career. I check ingredients in everything I use. I can't have any mishaps. Thanks for the reinforcement!
