Hello everyone,
In 2007 I recived a class C misdemeanor in Texas for a failur to report an Accident/ Injury (There was no injury I hit a barb wire fence 2 mile from my parents house so I drove home afterwards). I was the only car/person involved. I am now taking my pre reqs for the nursing program in the LC valley in Idaho and I am worried how this will look to the clinicals sites. Does anyone have any experience with this type of charge?
Will I be able to get a Job as a nurse? This is my calling! I want to be a nurse.I am worried and going crazy! I was 18 at the time and I have come along way since then. I am a disabled vet (20%) and 23 now I want to be a nurse! With any luck I can apply to the program in the spring of 2013. I have recieved speeding tickets in the past but I have not gotten any in a couple of years.
No one has anything to say!??

It might be that no one can answer you for sure what the outcome is going to be. You need to contact the prospective school and your state's board of nursing for definitive answers.
