1. What should I do?

   Thorn94 replied to Thorn94's topic in Criminal

   I have been and I'm trying to get the money together. I'm just really confused about it. I know the BON will still see everything regardless and I was told that most LTCs and hospitals will as well due to Medicare/Medicaid. I haven't gotten any real ...

2. What should I do?

   Thorn94 replied to Thorn94's topic in Criminal

   Relocation is an option at this point. Even out of state. I spent too much money and time not to use my license. It's just frustrating. I'll definitely see if we have that option or something similar here. Thank you so much.

3. What should I do?

   Thorn94 replied to Thorn94's topic in Criminal

   What state are you in? I didn't know that existed. I'll definitely look into it. I even called the Arkansas BON and she said I probably couldn't be licensed there even. I just don't understand why they'd license me here knowing I couldn't work.

4. What should I do?

   I talked to an expungement lawyer and he said it wouldn't show up on an FBI or OSBI check. Does anyone know if this is true? Is it worth it because its alot of money that we don't have as I am not working and my fiance is the only one working? Edite...

5. What should I do?

   Thorn94 replied to Thorn94's topic in Criminal

   Burglary II and concealing stolen property. I do think it might have to do with the area but also the charges. I include it on the application to be thorough and not waste my time or potential employers. I was told that with a felony charge I can't w...

   I graduated in January 2018, I had to go through a review process due to criminal history and tested in November 2018 and passed and was granted an LPN license. I had a past history for felony charges. I entered a plea deal and received deferred sent...

7. NCLEX in One Week

   Thorn94 replied to Thorn94's topic in NCLEX

   Just to update. I was stressing over nothing. My computer shut off at minimum and I passed! I only had 2 or 3 religous/cultural questions.

8. NCLEX in One Week

   Thorn94 posted a topic in NCLEX

   I take the NCLEX PN in a little over a week. I have been studying and doing 200 questions or so a day but I still don't feel ready. I am scoring in the 80s on Exam Cram, 70s using Mosby's Comprehensive Review and in the 60s using Saunders. I heard Sa...

9. Felony and nursing?

   Thorn94 replied to Thorn94's topic in Criminal

   I heard back from the BON last week....I got the all clear for licensing! I start nursing school in February (fingers crossed). She told me that I would have additional paperwork to submit when the time comes but they really only look at violent offe...

10. Felony and nursing?

    Thorn94 replied to Thorn94's topic in Criminal

    Thank you! In Oklahoma it is five years as well, I was just unsure if they would count it from the start of my deferred sentence or the end of my probation since it's not an actual conviction. If it is true that if you can be a CNA, you can be a nurs...

11. Felony and nursing?

    Thorn94 replied to Thorn94's topic in Criminal

    What state are you in? Come September it won't be actual charges, just like a settled case. That is how it was explained to me when I took the plea anyways. I was 18 and should have researched better.

    Thorn94 replied to Thorn94's topic in Criminal

    I live in Oklahoma, which is why it's very confusing. They're very strict as well.

13. Felony and nursing?

    Thorn94 replied to Thorn94's topic in Criminal

    Thank you! You have given me more of a reason to be optimistic. I am 3 classes from an associates in allied health but after changing my major for the 3rd time I feel 100% that nursing is what I want to do with my life. It was always an option, but I...

    I will remain optimistic until I hear from them.

15. Felony and nursing?

    Thorn94 replied to Thorn94's topic in Criminal

    Mine will be 5 years old at the time I would apply for licensing...maybe there is hope. Thank you for your reply and honesty. Maybe I will start looking into other career options though.
