AHCA - waiting for screening process results

hello everyone!

Hope this posts finds you all healthy, happy and sober! :) I have been applying for jobs now for a few months with a lot of let downs. well, a couple of weeks I decided to apply at a LTC facility that a fellow IPN nurse works at. the DON hired me for the unit manager position pending on the AHCA (agency for healthcare administration/florida) results. this agency does all background screening, fingerprint results with federal and FBI, etc..... as some of you may know, for LTC employment you have to pass a level II background. I went to the AHCA website and one of the disqualifying convictions is domestic battery. back in 2002 I was in a very unhealthy relationship. we had gotten into a heated argument (no violence or physical assault) and I called 911 to have him removed from my apartment. well, the police show up and arrest both of us. I got a lawyer and the domestic battery charge was disposed in court as Nolle Prosquei: ( Nolle prosequi is a fancy latin term used in the legal context to describe a resolution of a criminal matter where the prosecution declines to prosecute. In other words, the charges are, for all practical purposes, "thrown out" when they are nolle'd.) BUT, it's still on my record.....

whew.... My question is this for anyone with LTC experience or anyone who knows ( I know this is not a legal advice forum, just want to know of anyone's experience or knowledge) WILL THIS PREVENT ME FROM BEING QUALIFIED TO WORK IN A LTC FACILITY?

thanks y'all for any info!! love ya and stay clean and sober!! xoxoxoxoxoxoxox

well one of my better LVNs had a domestic with her mother and it prevented her a little while from being able to set for her boards, but once the kinks worked out, she did in like six months ir less.......really awesome LVN.

Two things it says conviction so you may get by but no matter what start checking in to having this record expunged it takes a while but worth it in the long run.

@ virgo- Holy Moly!!! does this mean that you really haven't actually "gotten" that job yet?? Dang!! i feel for you!! hang in there!!
