Are we limited on this?

Hi all,

This questions is for nurses who are in monitoring programs, as am I. I live and work in Washington state. I am about two years into a five year monitoring contract through WHPS, the professional recovery program for nurses here. As most of you have experienced, I also have had restrictions placed on the type of work I can do, and for whom. In order to supplement, a couple years ago I became a BLS instructor with the American Heart Association, and aligned with a training center in my area, in order to teach classes. I am now looking at expanding into teaching ACLS, but one of the requirements for doing so, is to hold a license or certification in a field where one would practice ACLS, which I do - with a legal order attached to it requiring me to be in and compliant with the monitoring program. Here's my questions, have any of you looked at doing this, because to my knowledge, my training center doesn't know about and couldn't care less about my licensure issues, as pertains to teaching BLS. I'm just wondering if when I apply to teach more advanced courses, this will come up, seeing as how licensure is a requirement to teach the more advanced stuff. I know this is a very specific question, but I thought it might be worth a shot. Thanks in advance anybody who chimes in. :geek:

Heya! These are good questions and while I don't have direct experience in this...

I'd take a guess that you would need to clear teaching ACLS with your monitoring program. From your description it sounds like you'd be technically teaching folks under the auspices of your nursing license. I bet others will have some input too.

I like your initiative in looking at ways to use your skills outside of nursing. I took a job that required a four year human services degree (which my bachelors in nursing is!) for three years. It was awesome and a relief from nursing to boot!

Good luck!
