  1. Ohio BON help

    Lisacar130 replied to Lulu3387's topic in Nurses Recovery

    In Illinois a refusal is an automatic positive. I don't see why Ohio would be any different. I know you passed 2 days later but that doesn't mean you would have been negative the day in question. Some...

  2. Any actual success with attorney?

    Lisacar130 replied to nurse_girlie's topic in Nurses Recovery

    I'm from a different state but I haven't heard of anyone getting out of an evaluation. I wonder if your lawyer could make them let you go to a psychiatrist of your choosing instead of theirs. I would...

  3. Fired Due to Not Being Able to Get to Work

    Lisacar130 replied to Studentworker's topic in General Nursing

    None of you preaching about work ethic would go out of your way for a job only paying $20 for an entire overnight shift. Actually, my advice is to sue this place for violating labor laws as it sounds...

  4. Fired Due to Not Being Able to Get to Work

    Lisacar130 replied to Studentworker's topic in General Nursing

    Sure, you can almost kill yourself and drive with a bad car with bad tires in bad weather for $20, or stay up for 48 hours straight and then work a triple shift without going to the bathroom at all......

  5. Leadership Role

    Lisacar130 replied to nurseofdragons's topic in General Nursing

    Are you talking about bedside shift report or just rounding on the patient's during the

  6. Fired Due to Not Being Able to Get to Work

    Lisacar130 replied to Studentworker's topic in General Nursing

    I mean I have arrived at the hospital 12 hours before my shift just so that I could work my shift on time when we knew there would be a blizzard, but I was making $40 an HOUR not $20 for the whole...

  7. Fired Due to Not Being Able to Get to Work

    Lisacar130 replied to Studentworker's topic in General Nursing

    How do you only get $20 for working a whole night? Lesson learned... next time at a new job just call in sick or call in a couple hours ahead of time and tell them your street isn't plowed and you...

  8. CA nurses help !!

    Lisacar130 replied to Alllirn05's topic in Nurses Recovery

    Things might be different in CA, but here in IL it is typical for hospitals to only give out dates of employment. It's not a law but that is a typical HR policy here. Hospitals are afraid of being...

  9. CA nurses help !!

    Lisacar130 replied to Alllirn05's topic in Nurses Recovery

    I also see no reason not to get a job... actually it is better if you do as soon as possible so you could pay for a lawyer and also so you would already be employed if there was some kind of public...

  10. CA nurses help !!

    Lisacar130 replied to Alllirn05's topic in Nurses Recovery

    I think anything would help... otherwise there would always be a lingering suspicion you were high. I don't know though... but you should really contact a lawyer. Even a minor punishment like a fine...

  12. CA nurses help !!

    Lisacar130 replied to Alllirn05's topic in Nurses Recovery

    I'm not from CA but it can take awhile to hear back. I have heard of it taking anywhere from 3 weeks to a year in my state but it could even be longer. In the meantime, I recommend getting yourself a...

  13. Negative drug screen and jobplace still wants me to meet with IPN

    Lisacar130 replied to Cpblondie81's topic in Nurses Recovery

    ...they could also give you a hair test and see if there's anything else you took in the past. They can ask for your medical records from the physician that prescribed the

  14. Negative drug screen and jobplace still wants me to meet with IPN

    Lisacar130 replied to Cpblondie81's topic in Nurses Recovery

    It is possible they can make you do it... even with a negative drug screen. The eval could say for mental health reasons. Or that you were abusing your Xanax (it is possible that someone with a valid...

  15. Full Time or Per diem (But Full time)

    Lisacar130 replied to Irah0526's topic in General Nursing

    I used to work per diem on a busy medical floor and I rarely got low censuses... the most it happened in a couple of years was three times in a 2 week period. I also still got 401K benefits that my...

  16. Diversion

    Lisacar130 replied to Frina's topic in Nurses Recovery

    In my state, I have heard the board taking anywhere from 3 weeks to almost a year before the board actually contacts the person who was reported to set up a hearing date. I'm sure it could be

  17. Diversion

    Lisacar130 replied to Frina's topic in Nurses Recovery

    Curious here but did you sign anything? Either way you confessed to taking a med. It really doesn't matter that you didn't say what kind of med it was. They can report you to the board for taking a...

  18. What kind of lawyer can answer my questions?

    Lisacar130 replied to 1blueheron's topic in General Nursing

    Just so you are aware, what they are trying to find out is if you need an assessment done to see if you need to be monitored and by monitored I mean be in the exact same program as nurses who were...

  19. Failed drug test, getting reported to BON

    Lisacar130 replied to troubledrn12's topic in Nurses Recovery

    As far as if it's too late to self report, that depends on the state. Whether you should either self report or not also depends on the state. So call a nurse lawyer that specializes in your

  20. Negative drug screen and jobplace still wants me to meet with IPN

    Lisacar130 replied to Cpblondie81's topic in Nurses Recovery

    Wait... just a thought but the new job offer you got... did they do a background and reference check already? If not I would consider stalling the first job until they

  21. Negative drug screen and jobplace still wants me to meet with IPN

    Lisacar130 replied to Cpblondie81's topic in Nurses Recovery

    I believe they can still have you monitored for stress and mental health issues... like if the neurologist can't find a medical cause for what happened. So get a nurse lawyer in your state because if...

  22. Diversion

    Lisacar130 replied to Frina's topic in Nurses Recovery

    What did you confess to, exactly? You really need a nurse attorney. If I were you I would get myself a drug test right

  23. Diversion

    Lisacar130 replied to Frina's topic in Nurses Recovery

    You need a nurse lawyer immediately. What exactly did you say? Did you sign anything? You "confessed" enough to be fired, so now I'm afraid they are reporting this to your BON. Ask the lawyer, but he...

    Lisacar130 replied to Munch's topic in General Nursing
