    When/How to interview when in HPRP

    K. Everly replied to Tebecca's topic in Nurses Recovery

    Not positive if you question was to me, but if it was, the answer is no. I have not worked as an RN before because I am not licensed yet. I've done other things in health care but never in an actual...

    When/How to interview when in HPRP

    K. Everly replied to Tebecca's topic in Nurses Recovery

    Good question. I've been graduated from my A-BSN program for over a year, waiting RN licensure, and have no idea if I'm going to get put into HPRP or get my license put on probation. I...

    Dual Intake Evalution

    K. Everly replied to LBltc's topic in Nurses Recovery

    I started it but your frequent use of the punitive and judgmental word “alcoholic,” lost me at the onset. Person first language is much more therapeutic and appreciate - consider changing that....

    Concerns with licensing in NYS and background

    K. Everly replied to StudentM2021's topic in Licensure: Criminal History

    Get ahold of me if you’d like. Our situations are eerily similar only mine as worse. I graduated from an accelerated 2nd degree BSN program a year ago and am taking aggressive steps to put...

    Future RN with past criminal history

    K. Everly replied to AD1989's topic in Licensure: Criminal History

    If it says “disclose if charged as an adult,” that indicates that they acknowledge that difference between a juvenile and adult conviction. Based on that specific wording, I would not self report...

    Can I realistically become a Nurse with my disability?

    K. Everly replied to Guest1144459's topic in Nurse Disabilities

    I was genuinely trying to help you based on personal experience. If you only want to hear answers that suit your desired outcome, then this might not be the forum for you. I've given you some...

    Dual Intake Evalution

    K. Everly replied to LBltc's topic in Nurses Recovery

    I hear you on this. The BON in the US often requires similar things of people in monitoring or on probation – however, that includes the current medical record, not old medical records they have no...

    Can I realistically become a Nurse with my disability?

    K. Everly replied to Guest1144459's topic in Nurse Disabilities

    To be honest, for some reason I had a hard time understanding what you were saying. Whether you do or don't have schizoaffective disorder etc. So in some ways I'm still pretty confused. Hindsight...

    Can I realistically become a Nurse with my disability?

    K. Everly replied to Guest1144459's topic in Nurse Disabilities

    I went back to read your post OP. As I said before, I think doing a background check on yourself is going to be crucial before making a decision – even seeking legal help to see if it can be sealed...

    Dual Intake Evalution

    K. Everly replied to LBltc's topic in Nurses Recovery

    I don't believe they have any way of getting your medical records regarding your substance use disorder 10 years ago unless you voluntarily turn them over – if they do know about that it'll be used...

    Can I realistically become a Nurse with my disability?

    K. Everly replied to Guest1144459's topic in Nurse Disabilities

    The situation is different for everybody, so I don't want to freak you out. All I can do is tell you how this has been for me and how I would have dealt with it if I had this whole thing to do again....

    What to do when Nurse is attacked and employer doesn't file police report?

    K. Everly replied to Nurse Beth's topic in Career Advice Column

    Some nurses have NO bedside manner and have no idea how to deescalate a situation, whether it be with a psych patient, a person living with dementia, or even a drunk or high person. I'm very...

    Just got out of rehab...help!

    K. Everly replied to sb_peds_er_rn's topic in Nurses Recovery

    Wholeheartedly second this. TRUST NO ONE, at least with this. I think it's great that you sought sobriety and help with it. Feel free to PM me anytime if you want to

    Intent to take in text

    K. Everly replied to Ward05's topic in Nurses Recovery

    I appreciate the honesty. Sounds like you know it was a grave mistake for several reasons and it's a good sign that you have personal insight about that so you won't find yourself in that position...

    Nursing student- there is hope

    K. Everly replied to Betterdaystocome's topic in Nurses Recovery

    Yeah my lawyer is probably just putting me through the battery of tests and stuff to wrack up my bill. One of the psychiatrists I saw (of 3) said there was no way in heck I was getting out of a...

    Nursing student- there is hope

    K. Everly replied to Betterdaystocome's topic in Nurses Recovery

    Thank you. Sometimes I ask myself what has my life become, but I just have to keep my eye on God and know that His Will will be done at the end of the day, even if that doesn't look the way I thought...

    Nursing student- there is hope

    K. Everly replied to Betterdaystocome's topic in Nurses Recovery

    Then I can never be licensed as an RN in my state. It's quite outrageous. Yes, I have an attorney. She is super rude and but I'm already in deep with her over the last year, couldn't begin to afford...

    Nursing student- there is hope

    K. Everly replied to Betterdaystocome's topic in Nurses Recovery

    I appreciate what you are saying but some states have a timeline of when you have to apply for licensure after BSN graduation, so I personally don't have a choice. Will have 2.5 years of criminal...

    Hair test

    K. Everly replied to Betterdaystocome's topic in Nurses Recovery

    If you show up bald as the day you were born, head to toe, and having cut every single free edge of your finger and toe nails, you are gonna look guilty as sin. And they may also call into question...

    One year suspension coming to an end

    K. Everly replied to Barton82's topic in Nurses Recovery

    I'd bring letters of reference from your current employer, something showing you have been negative on random drug and alcohol screens (I'm assuming your treatment program included them), a letter of...

    Jobs With DUI

    K. Everly replied to emilymorgan's topic in Nurses Recovery

    Honestly, I highly doubt this will be much of a problem if it is the only thing on your criminal record and no disciplinary action has been taken against your RN license. My suggestion would be to be...

    Kratom and TPAPN

    K. Everly replied to Jjpount862's topic in Nurses Recovery

    I don't think anybody could be completely certain and even if somebody here professed to be positive with a yes or no answer, would you trust their information with your license? Don't do it. There...

    Restudying for the NCLEX

    K. Everly replied to hiimanurse's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    nursing.com has an amazing NCLEX prep academy. I bought a lifetime membership to their entire site while ago, like 2 years ago. It was $500 and the best nursing related money I’ve spent by far. They...

    TPAPN nurse, positive drug test-

    K. Everly replied to Mcrntx's topic in Nurses Recovery

    I’d get a nurse attorney (TAANA.org) and get them to help ASAP. They will probably hair follicle test you to prove your
