  1. Thanks. I recognize, obviously, that a résumé and a license renewal form are different things and I may have misspoke in my first statement to the OP, which is why after I was asked about it (I...
  2. So I’m thinking this is very state specific, but I took a free video course with Empowered Nurses .com (Lori Brown, RN, JD) and one of her videos talked about how not mentioning on your license...

    Forgot To Renew ?

    Deep breaths, hun. You aren't a bad nurse, employee, or human being for making a mistake. Mistakes are inevitable for us all and beating ourselves up rarely results in better outcomes in the future....
  5. I think you made the right decision to list the job. Technically one can get into hot water with their state BON for not being honest about jobs on resumes. I'm sorry that it all turned out this...
  6. Hi Alexandria, I really don't see why not. Our skilled fingers are our thumb, pointer, and middle. As long as you still have good grip strength and a decent level of dexterity to hold viles and draw...
  7. I definitely agree. Having worked in domestic violence victim advocacy prior to nursing school, it’s staggering the number of people experiencing DV and IPV that you’d never expect and who’s...

    Telehealth / tpapn

    It is very person specific, based on the people I’ve spoken to. It depends on your state’s program, your contract, and your case manager. But it’s not a hard no for all persons in...

    Nursing.com

    Thanks, I wasn’t trying to dismiss the content of your full message, that one sentence just confused me. I think I know what you are saying though. I just passed my NCLEX and I felt Mark...

    Board Order: Sabotaged by doctor

    I have no advice except to say this hurts my heart and I feel angry with you for this. I can’t imagine why he would be acting this way, especially considering you’re not even on narcotics....
  11. I am very sorry to hear this took place. I second what rn1965 said about not allowing this setback to keep you from moving onwards and upwards. I don’t necessarily agree that a best...

    Nursing.com

    This is confusing to me. Sites like nursing.com don’t just prepare you with testing strategies and NPQ, they actually have a number of courses and other content to actually help you fill in the...

    Intent to take in text

    I'm so sorry it didn't end where it was before. My DUI from when I was 21 y.o. took them a year and a half to even process (I didn't go to jail when it happened & I never received anything in the...

    Any Online AA meetings for nurses?

    We have 2 nurses in recovery meetings weekly at Lionrock Recovery. Tuesdays and Thursdays. One is listed as NA and the other AA, but nurses in any sort of recovery for any sort of substance or mental...
  15. I just needed to vent. I don't feel like rehashing my entire situation because it's just way too much and I've been in the same state of limbo for almost 15 months. Sometimes the weight of these...
  16. That's a great point, thank you for sharing it! I've met some amazing nurses I otherwise would not have met if it wasn't for going through what I have and their impact on me will be lasting. If I...

    Can One Use an HSA to Pay For Monitoring?

    Thank you! Do you happen to know if that is state specific or across the board, they can’t deny you from using it? I learned the hard way to be worried about this stuff because the only...
  18. Can one use their HSA to pay for monitoring or BON probation costs as imposed by the state board or monitoring program? Costs I am thinking of would be drug testing, possible evaluations etc? I'm in...
  19. It seems like you are saying that in order to report these licensed professionals you relied on them self reporting that they were in fact health care professionals, is that right? I ask because...
  20. I’m very sorry for everything you have experienced, @Floridababe. I’m someone who had complex PTSD from long before my nursing journey began, and now I have PTSD symptoms from this experience too....

    Trapped

    Well if the F stands for Felony and it's a misdemeanor charge that is now being erroneously reported as a felony, I would get a lawyer to have this fixed. I don't mean to "woah is me" here, but...

    any nurses/nursing students on methadone?

    I would personally not attend nursing school on methadone because it opens you up to a host of issues and increases your likelihood that you will have issues with the BON later down the line. Trust...

    Needing surgery in Recovery

    I hope your surgery goes well! I know if it were me I would not so much as LOOK at an unapproved med, whether post op or not, until your monitor approves it in writing in no uncertain terms....

    Ohio BON Final Review

    Thank you! I wish Michigan had one of those, and I guess for all I know they do but it certainly hasn’t been easy to find it if it does exist. I completed both of the free CE courses on the...
  25. So sweet and just what I needed to hear. I thank God for people like you and can't wait for the day I get to work along side nurses of your calibre who relish seeing their coworkers thrive and...
