  1. HELP! Exception from Disqualification how long??

    What was the outcome? Can you share?
  2. Washington State License with Misdemeanors

    What is the outcome? Each state is very different. If you go to Texas, the BON clearly stated that it will not "take any action if criminal conviction entered more than 5 years before licensure." If the crime is a more serious one, if it happened mor...

    Texas BON has an age based minor criminal history review. If it happened more than 10 years, even with a class A misdemeanor, the Board will take no action when you apply for a license. I hope this will help. You guys can get the info from crimianl h...
  4. New York State RN App Denial

    Also, are you aware of the fact that Texas Board of Nursing has the age based minor criminal history review. It says "The Broad will not take action if conviction entered more than 5 years before you applying for a license." Even a class A misdemeano...
  5. New York State RN App Denial

    Try to apply in some states that is "open minded." I found Texas is one of them. I had a misdemeanor traffic violation in one of the Southern States, but Texas considers that traffic violation as a "minor violation" or an infraction ( unclassified mi...

    Traffic violation charges vary from state to state. Some states consider some of the charges are infractions or unclassified misdemeanors. However, most of the traffic violations are classified as misdemeanors--such as fail to stop for a red night, f...

  8. RN pay in Houston, TX

  9. Job search sites

    I would google a list of medical centers in a place/city that you want to spend the rest of your life there. Then apply for the position directly from their websites. I hope this will help. I did it before. It worked for me. But I used Indeed to loc...
  10. I recently was issued a citation for passing a stopped school bus. From Google search, some lawyers say it is a misdemeanor. I am worrying about that I might not be able to renew my nursing license if it is a misdemeanor. I haven't received a court d...
  11. Trying to Endorse into Texas

    Apply it online, criminal background check, take a exam, license verification and keep your finger crossed.
  12. In law, it means less serious than felony. But it will remain in your criminal record.....
  13. When renewing a nursing license, the broad is always asking for if you were convicted for a misdemeanor. Misdemeanor means it will stay on your criminal record. The traffic violation happened on a double lanes on neither sides and there is a left tur...
  14. Thank you, RobynICU! Only 98%? I hope I will not be that 2%.
  15. Thank you. I hope I will be OK. Thank you. I wasn't drunk or I didn't get high. But the word "misdemeanor" is scary enough.

    If you are really flexible, please come to Alabama. There are plenty of RN jobs right here in Birmingham City or Mobile County.
  17. Do ASN/ADN nurses still get hired in the hospital?

    In Alabama, many hospitals hire both LPN's and RN's. The hospital I am working for right now has never asked me to obtain my BSN.
  18. RN working as a CNA

    Come to Alabama! I came to Alabama a year ago and I applied to 9 different hospitals. After 5 interviews and I got 5 jobs offered. The other 4 hospitals that tried to interview me got no chances to see me in person. LOL. It took me 2 weeks to get my...
  19. License at Risk? Put up or shut up,,,

    ....you can visit the NYS OP website, nurses got their licenses suspended or revoked for different reasons. One of the reasons for suspension is sleeping on the jobs. So it's very easy....
  20. Falsely accused of abuse

    ....."travel CNA..." You will always be the fall guy! This is the reason why I always avoid those travel agencies.

  24. Associate degree new grad working in nursing home

    With an AAS in nursing without any acute care setting experience, that is the only job you can hope for. If you need a hospital job, you need to go somewhere else. I hope this help. I have been there.... It is much easier to get one in one of the sta...
