Probation friendly RN to BSN Schools

Nurses Recovery

Published

Hi all! I'm a new RN in California that has been put on probation for 3 years. I am looking to start a RN to BSN program but I am not able to find a school that will take me while I'm on probation. Does anyone know of a school that can accommodate? Thanks for your help!

Doubtful. What kind of probation were you put on? What are the terms of the probation?

If that means you have a restricted license, it's probably a long shot to find an accredited RN-to-BSN program. I believe most (all?) require an unrestricted license, as far as I know. Sorry. :(

Standard restrictions. Drug testing , nurse support group, AA meetings. No floating,No in-home, no travel RN

Not gonna be easy. I know of no RN-BSN programs that are probation friendly.

I am sorry. Finish probation, clean record, then try again. Recovery is a process. I wish you the best.

Are you using school in lieu of telling a workplace about the probation? Because your contract will stipulate whether you can or cannot do this; depending on the stipulations, you may have to work that time. Good luck.
