Forensic eval w/polygraph

Can somebody please comment something on this issue????

Well, just to keep anybody who is following updated, I did my forensic evaluation last week and my polygraph yesterday. My polygraph was "inconclusive",whatever that means or how the board will interpret it, I don't know. It will be about a month before I hear anything, probably longer. If anybody has been through any of this before, please comment your experience and outcome. Thanks.

Hi,

ive been following your story and just wanted to say that I am wishing you the best. I find it completely unfair that you are going through this huge process when all you have is a misdemeanor and over 7 years ago. There's still hope though that after all is said and done you will get your license and without stips right?

After you sent your $150 to the BON for the enforcement review, what was the next step? They sent you a letter saying that you had to go get tested and evaluated?

Oh, I forgot to mention, YES, the BON put stips on me... they are not horrible, but they are there. I have to have my license for a year and follow all of their demands to get the stips removed after a year.

It is all over!!! I took my NCLEX after being out of school for seven months and PASSED IT! I got my license in the mail yesterday, 04/06/16. I am ready to start my job search and move on with my life. Good luck to anybody that reads this and is going through it. It really is a will tester and you just have to go day by day to get through it.

Congratulations mla30!

Thanks for the update. Im going through a similar situation. I didn't take the polygraph part but did do the forensic eval.

Another update to my story...... I was so ecstatic about finally getting licensed and getting on with my life but.....the hard part was still not over. I started my job search April 1, 2016, 1 day after getting officially licensed. I went on tons and tons of interviews, open houses, orientations to hospitals, etc. No one would hire me and some even told me straight up that it was because of the stips on my license. They said I was a liability. So i went through periods of depression and just wanted to survive, with or without nursing. I took a part time job as cleaning lady at a freaking maid service company. I was desperate and needed income. That didnt help me mentally because i knew my worth. I stuck that out for 2 months and then finally, December 23rd of 2016 I got offered a nursing job!!! Part of my offer was to take a $10/hr less than a regular starting RN at the facility until my stips are lifted, but I did not care. I EXCEPTED THE OFFER. I have been working now for about 3 weeks and got my first check as an RN last week. Life is getting better. I do have to check in every single morning with drug testing people and test whenever they say, but thats not to bad. I am just relieved i am finally working with an income i can support my kids with and a career that i love. NEVER GIVE UP. It was tough, very tough and tore me down several times, but i stayed in the fight and it paid off. Good luck to anyone going through this mess with the board. I hope you find your happy ending.
