  1. HOW LONG WILL MY LICENSE HAVE A BOARD ACTION?

    guest7/31/17 replied to KingJames1227's topic in Nurses Recovery

    Sadly it will live forever on NPDB and NURSYS. Employers check these databases. Most Boards of Nursing automatically forward you to Nursys when verifying a license. They don't fwd to NPDB because...

    guest7/31/17 replied to Wish4goodstaffing's topic in General Nursing

    guest7/31/17 replied to Wish4goodstaffing's topic in General Nursing

    Safe Harbor in Texas is law. Its part of the Texas Administrative Code. I posted it earlier. Board however, will not intervene. It does likely rise to the level of a civil suit. But statute of...

    Oh you will get a response. They will tell you there role is not to advocate for nurses but to protect the public. They also will state they have no authority in employment issues. But my fear would...

    guest7/31/17 replied to Wish4goodstaffing's topic in General Nursing

    guest7/31/17 replied to Wish4goodstaffing's topic in General Nursing

    In Texas it must be remembered that Safe Harbor (SH), is legislated law. SH as the law reads does protect your job in so far as it is a violation of the law to "retaliate." Any Nurse Administrators...

  13. Fired for saying i might file safe harbor

    guest7/31/17 replied to Wish4goodstaffing's topic in General Nursing

    Some of the advice here is really misleading. First off Safe Harbor (if in Tx.) Is law. Protections under safe harbor are also law. ) TOC §303.005(c) and (h) (NPR Law) and §301.352 provide the...

    Texas Administrative Law clearly states you cannot be terminated for calling Safe Harbor either verbally or through electronic form. This is legally actionable. Contact an attorney since statute for...

  18. Confused - Did I may right decision

    guest7/31/17 replied to Nursered13's topic in Nurses Recovery

    I disagree with hiring an attorney. They cost thousands and have no authority with the BON at least in Texas. An Attorney cannot tell your story. You do need assistance and a witness at all hearings....

  19. Disciplinary Action HELP!!

    guest7/31/17 replied to CynthiaArr's topic in Nurses Recovery

    Texas Board does allow you to petition for reinstatement. The Texas BON disciplines more nurses than most other states. Their disciplinary actions are steadily and massively increasing. You are among...
