Probably a frequent question, but...

I screwed up recently and got a DUI. It is the first blemish on my record ever. I have been an RN for about a year and 3 months now. I got the DUI in Mississippi and work in Louisiana. I was just wondering if anyone knows how the LA BON handles these issues from personal experience or from experience with others. I know that the State Board is the only place that can tell me officially how they handle it, but I have looked everywhere on their site and can't find anything. I am not required to notify them until I reapply for my license, and I am not gonna do it before them because I might get out of it, because it was bogus. I was just wondering because I know LA is one of the more strict and harsh BON.

Were you driving drunk? If not, why did you say "I screwed up"? If you were, why did you say "because it was bogus"?

Sorry, I believe this covers legal advice, which we can't do on here....GL though, hope it works out for you. Either you were or weren't though...I'm with B, something isn't adding up.

You might google for malpractice lawyers who represent nurse in Baton Rouge, just in case

Probably a frequent question, but...

Lord I hope this isn't a frequent question! Nurses should know better than to drive drunk! :eek:

You will not find anything on BON website as each is dealt with as an individual case by case. Only they can make that decision

Lord I hope this isn't a frequent question!

Sadly, it comes up all the time.

This is going to sound harsh, but if you really did drive drunk, you deserve to lose your license. I, personally, don't want to work with nurses who exhibit such poor judgement. Hopefully, someone will turn you in before your license is up for renewal.
