Probationary Licenses

I sent you a PM if you would like some suggestions/information

If you are having trouble finding a job in direct patient care, perhaps you could look into working with an insurance company. Just a thought. I don't think your probation would matter in that sort of position. Good luck!

i have tried getting an insurance job but none will hire me (or anyone with an "encumbered" license. i don't know what to do!!! kim rn

i too surrendered my license to the wv board after my boss noticed changes in me. i went away for 30 days to a treatment facility on my own. i had only been abusing opiates for 3 months before this happened so i didn't have withdrawel or anything. that was in august of 2002. no one will hire a nurse with a "probationary" status or one that has an "impaired nursing contract." what are we suppoae to do??? does the hospitals where you live randomly test all employees?? thay don't here in wv-i think they know they would lose lots of employees-and not just nurses!!

i need help and advic. i am a nurse with an impeccable reputation. a couple of years ago, i received 2 dui's, these came as completely out of character and occurred after a serious personal difficulty. i self reported to the board,i admitted to a misdemeanor, mylicense is on probation, conditions of which i abide by. however i cannot get a job, i have completed all asked of me, i abstain from alcohol,do regular random drug screens. i need advice, anyone.
