2. Inappropriate nurse support groups

   LindsayRNL replied to LindsayRNL's topic in Nurses Recovery

   My old group was tolerable and it was just a social hour. I miss them. This new one is twice as long and I drive an hour just to get there, pay someone to host it, and get nothing from it. Oh well. I...

3. Oh, my aching feet!!!!

   LindsayRNL replied to GrammyCat066's topic in Scrubs, Uniforms, Gear

   I just recently purchased a pair of Alegria Keli shoes about 2 weeks ago and love them. I was experiencing the same type of heel pain which prompted me to buy my 1st pair of "nursing" shoes! I love my...

4. Inappropriate nurse support groups

   LindsayRNL replied to LindsayRNL's topic in Nurses Recovery

   Sorry, had replied to this but it never posted! The facilitator was inquiring about psych medications some of the participants were on and if a participant had said something like "oh, I'm going to...

5. IN LIMBO-BON monitoring from other state?!

   LindsayRNL replied to Companion2thewind's topic in Nurses Recovery

   I have successfully transferred to another state's non-disciplinary program. I think it's just really dependent on the program they use and the BON

   LindsayRNL replied to anurse415's topic in Nurses Recovery

   Hey! I just came across this and sorry for the late response. I have met other nurses in NJ with criminal backgrounds that were issued a NJ nursing license. Being in RAMP depends on what and how long...

7. Narcotic restrictions- how do they work??

   LindsayRNL replied to OhioRN1234's topic in Nurses Recovery

   I hope that shadow position worked out for you! When I had a narc restriction, the facility used a pyxis and pharmacy was able to block me from pulling certain meds. I don't have a narc restriction...

8. More IPN stuff

   LindsayRNL replied to RiNlimbo's topic in Nurses Recovery

   I hear you loud and clear. It's incredibly frustrating the loops we need to jump through to make it work. We continue to do the right thing but still being looked at under the microscope. I'm so sorry...

   Hi. I understand your frustration with being in compliance but getting no credit for it. I'm sorry it has taken so long for you. Stay hopeful, something will come along. Apply to the hospitals...

10. Incidental Exposure

    LindsayRNL replied to anurse415's topic in Nurses Recovery

    Hi! My monitoring program outlined what products to avoid. Relax and do what you're supposed to do. It's scary to see how many things could potentially could throw a false positive but I haven't...

11. Inappropriate nurse support groups

    LindsayRNL replied to LindsayRNL's topic in Nurses Recovery

    I'm attending because I am forced to attend to remain in compliance. In the end I take what I can from them and move on. I'm 4 years into the program but some of the topics and details shared and...

12. Inappropriate nurse support groups

    LindsayRNL posted a topic in Nurses Recovery

    I'm not sure how comfortable I am in my nurse support group. It feels like it's a group therapy session and for me and that is not what I need from this program. I chose it based on proximity to home...

13. Missed opportunities

    LindsayRNL replied to Recovering_RN's topic in Nurses Recovery

    I haven't gone on a vacation in 4 years and the one time I did ask for an interruption, it was denied. Loved flying across the country with a rental car in a new city, pressed for time, in the snow,...

    LindsayRNL replied to Trinayien's topic in Nurses Recovery

    I wish I had good news for you or personal experience. I know if you withdraw from the program it's considered non-compliant and reportable to the board. It becomes public information. Maybe contact...

15. Need Help

    LindsayRNL replied to Apple-Core's topic in Nurses Recovery

    I'm so sorry you're going through this. I had to shape up because I hit my rock bottom. Continue to emotionally support her but not enable her (no money!). If you're in contact with her, offer to go...
