Group one -black list for nurses in dallas

[nitenurselorraine]

Has anyone out there been reported as not rehireable? The Chapter One list in the Dallas area is a list of nurses who has been fired and not recommended for rehire. You are not supposed to be reported if you resign and you are supposed to notified if you are placed on the list. Neither of the two are true. I am wanting to know if anybody has fought it and been able to get your name removed from the list. Also does anyone know how long your name stays on the list? I do have a phone # I plan to call next week and hopefully get a few answers. I will let you know if I get anywhere. Please let me know if you can help.

Pretty much all of DFW uses gp1. They have the client list on their site, but it is not up to date because I recently applied for a job and had a gp1 check at a hospital that is not on the list.

OMG they called and I'm on the list. I've been an RN for 22 years never having a problem. Group One's web page is http://www.gp1.com and there you can get the form to fax to them to request a written reason why you are on the list.

I would advise getting a good lawyer and plan on this being a very protracted fight. I have a friend who wound up on there for completely bogus reasons by a supervisor who was vindictive. It took him two years to clear his name.
