Congrats on your recovery and sobriety - you might try looking into psych and or addiction recovery hospitals - they tend to be more forgiving of past mistakes and able to work with stips and restrictions. I went to work in psych 15 years ago when in a monitoring program and never looked back - I love what I do.

My first job in monitoring was home health. In Texas they allow that as long as I see my manager face to face once a day and call in once a day. After 8 months of home health I found a job in a small free standing ER/urgent care clinic. TPAPN allows this even though I'm the only nurse there during my shifts because instead of having a nurse supervising me, they allowed the doc on shift to assume that supervisory role. Not sure if your program will allow that but it never hurts to check!
