License Renewal??

What kind of program? Was it IOP, or a program the DOJ system requires DUI people to attend?

I didn’t even have to do anything for my DUI just because it happen prior to getting my license. I had to go to counseling 1x a month and random drug screens. I had to do that bc I failed a UDS for marijuana at my job.

Someone chime in if I'm wrong, but counseling isn't 'treatment' in the traditional sense. When I think of drug treatment, I think of being admitted to inpatient or outpatient and then discharged when I've met my treatment goals. If I were renewing, I wouldn't keep reporting to them the things they've already been made aware of.

If I’ve learned anything in this roller coaster to hades, it’s to keep ones mouth shut. You’ve done TNPAP and finished it for some reason and somewhere in there, they know of the DUI and did not consider it relevant when sentencing you to monitoring (suprising given the additional $$ that could have been squeezed from you on that, but never mind that)? That means, someone, somewhere already knows of it. IMO, don’t tell them again. It’s not new information and you run the risk of buying yourself more “evaluations” where some enterprising individual could decide that you now have an alcohol issue that needs yet more monitoring.

I am guessing that unlike my lovely state, yours does not consider an old, one time, closed pre nursing school DUI that may have been enough to scare the living daylights out of you grounds to start your nursing career off with the stigma of a monitoring contract. For that you are fortunate.

My recommendation is to say nothing as this is not new information. Stay far away from the MJ. Stop stressing and get on with your thankfully non TNPAP associated career.

Ask your "case manager." The BON is well aware that you're being disciplined; the answer as to whether you have to let them know belongs to them. Good luck.

I just renewed. You answer no. it tells you right on the question that you answered no if you are a graduate of or in TPAPN.
