I need some advice, guidance, and or general input. Last year I was fired from a hospital position of 10 years. I had FMLA for a couple of years and was getting flare ups more frequent than approved. The FMLA office looked into it and the doctor stated he didn't see me on certain dates. These dates I dealt with his nurse for return to work forms. I thought she was acting as a liaison and he was aware that I had contacted the office. I was terminated and reported to the board for falsifying documents for not seeing a physician. I should have never dealt with a nurse with the understanding it was OK and the doctor was aware. I have been trying to get a job and failing miserably. I get interviews, but it ends there. I don't know what to do or say to increase my chances of landing a job. I love nursing and did not intentionally falsify. I regret it everyday that I tried to get back to work quickly, instead of missing more dates inn order to physically see a physician. Any thoughts? What can or should I say in an interview?
