Job search with a discipline on my license

Published

Hello, I am looking for some advise. I have a permanent discipline on my license with no restrictions. Any suggestions as to where I should apply. Any truth to there being recovery friendly company's?

Specializes in Med/Surg, Women's Health, LTC.

I just found out 5 minutes ago that my license is FINALLY ACTIVE after years of putting in the work to get it there! I am in a monitoring contract and will be for 3 years.

From what I have read, dialysis, plasma centers, LTC are recovery friendly. Wound care nurses, case managers, maybe Utilization review??

I am hoping to find something soon. My biggest concern is when to bring it up?

Sending you good vibes!

Thank you for your comment. So far I have been disclosing at the end of the interview. I'd rather they get to know me first before disclosing. 2 interviews completed with no luck. 1 was plasma and 1 was LTC. I was thinging on trying home health next...

All jobs requires is that you have no restrictions, I dont see why you need to disclose anything more than your license number and your experience

I would keep trying. You can def get a good job! I found it better to talk about it compared to not.

Do you have and suggests @chad?

Just curious as to where this is. I am in Ontario and have similar situation however just looking to move positions within where  I am working. Currently working as a PSW but want to go back to nursing. I have no restrictions but it does list it online that I had to take a remediation program. Wondering it this will deter or if they have to ask about it
