license under investigation

Nurses General Nursing

Published

so i recently was working as a travel nurse in iowa, i'm originally licensed in wisconsin and california. i was working in iowa under the compact. a complaint was made against me, and i received a letter from my travel nursing agency that this complaint was sent to wisconsin and california. i'm now back in wisconsin, and i am currently attempting to get my old job back at my old hospital. i just wanted to know if i am required to disclose that my license may be under investigation? if i am straight up asked this, i intend to answer truthfully, but if not, i wasn't going to necessarily offer this information. does anyone know if i will be breaking any rules by not disclosing this myself? thanks

Good luck and keep us posted if you care to.

I have friend who work for the state and told me that you do not have to disclosure any information regarding your investigation. It is your choice to report but remember  you are not guilty until proven and the state is still doing their investigation. Meaning there is no wrong doing on your part until they complete their investigate and finding. They will not disclosure your information to current employer that you under investigated because they have not guilty and no finding that's why your license is active.
