License

[Nursing5000]

Yes it is me again. My license are still flagged and will not be renewed until I finish Bio 101. I started my biology 101 class yesterday. My license do not go up for renewal until April 30th. My biology class is over May 2nd. Should I tell my employer I have a flag on my license or just try to get board of nursing to give me 10 days. Please don't give hateful answers just advice. I cry every time I think about how messed up my life is because I did not sign a paper. Biology 101 is not going to make me a better nurse most schools do not require it.

I would ask your Biology professor if you could finish the class early. If not I would see if you could get into another Biology class which will end earlier. And if you don't have a license you need to tell your employer.

I would call your BON and ask them. I'll be honest and say I doubt that they will make an exception in your case. Even if you renewed your license late you cannot work at your employer without a license. I think it's time you be honest with your employer about what is going on. If you are lucky they will allow you a leave of absence during the time it takes to process all of this. I wouldn't expect that it all be resolved on the same day as your class ends. Nothing moves that fast with the BON. Good luck.

I think there were plenty of usable suggestions on what to do in by users in all your other posts. Continuing to post the same thing is not going to change the situation or what you should do.

I think everything has been said in your previous thread so closing this one
