Hello! I'm new to Allnurses & I have a question. I received a DUI a cpl years ago & completed all requirements that I needed to & am totally in the clear now. I'm considering going to a local tech school to become an LPN but am wondering if the past DUI would keep me from getting licensed? Thanks in advance for any thoughts or advice😊
You need to talk to your State's BON (board of nursing). They could give you the best answer. Many states will require you go through a diversion program/monitoring program IF they grant you the ability to obtain a license.
