Advice

Hi Everyone,

I Am A 27 Year Old Nursing Student. This Is My First Time Using This Web Site. I Have A Very Serious Question To Ask Anyone That Reads This Message.

Back In 2001 I Had Knee Surgery And Became Very Addicted To A Medication Called "vicodin". I Had No Idea That This Drug Would Take Complete Control Of My Day To Day Living. I Was Convicted Of Forgery Of Prescription Medication. From 2001 To 2005 I Had A Few Encounters With The Law(misdermeanors). I Since Then Have Been Rehabilitated, I Am A Responsible Adult With A Beautiful 4 Yr Old Daughter, And I Love To Help People Even Though I Know Sometimes They Can Get A Little On The Annoying Side, I Still Feel A Fulfillment In Helping. My Dream Is To Work In The E.r. Someday. Because Of My Prior Mistakes In Life I'm Scared That The Board Will Deny My Licsence.i Would Hate To Go Through School And Never Be Able To Get My Liscence. Do You Know Anyone That Has Been Through A Similar Situation? Please Respond I Am So Interested In Hearing What You Have To Say. Thank You And God Bless

questions we seem to be encountering more and more often have to do with the effects of a criminal history on nursing licensure:

  • is it possible to become licensed as a nurse if you have a criminal history?
  • is it possible to become licensed as a nurse if you have a dui or other related charges?
  • what happens if you are charged or convicted of a crime after licensure?
  • can i go to nursing school and/or be licensed if my record has been sealed or expunged?
  • will i be able to go to nursing school with a criminal record?
  • what can happen if i receive a dui/dwi or other charge while still in school?

these are questions that the members of allnurses.com cannot answer. the only reliable source of information is your state board of nursing.

please refer to this thread for other information:

nursing licensure with a criminal history

good luck.
