  1. Florida IPN saga continues

    Get another job asap. Show you have a god track record with your new job. It takes months for the BON to launch an investigation. Don't smoke any weed even if on vacation where it's legal. They could test your hair and that can show 3 months worth of...
  2. Nurses licensed in Canada &USA

    Thank you for the reply!
  3. Nurses licensed in Canada &USA

    Hi, Does anyone have dual licenses in Canada and the USA and have been disciplined? Can the BON in the USA contact the Canadian BON and report any issues?!
  4. In the beginning I hired a lawyer who asked for $3500 which I paid, they nickeled and dimed me for everything then wanted more when the initial retainer was spent. Told me I’d never get my diversion charges dropped. So I fired my Lawyer and reached o...
  5. HPRP help

    I wouldn’t say anything, it might not be positive. Wait and see
  6. What to expect substance abuse/mental health eval

    Hey! I had my eval last week. I had waste discrepancies and my charge with the state BON was dismissed but part of my consent agreement was to get an eval, I’m in MI their monitoring program is similar to FL. It was actually pretty generic, my drug t...
  7. So I was able to have my diversion charge dismissed! But since my administrative complaint involved narcotics I am required to have a substance/ mental health eval, can anyone please give advice to what that ask?
  8. HPRP evaluation, advice needed please

    Call/ text me! 248-266-1302
  9. That’s so great!! Congratulations ?
  10. I ended up firing my lawyer and negotiated a better deal with my States Assistant Attorney General. It honestly depends of the situation. Pm me if you wanna chat!
  11. HPRP evaluation, advice needed please

    DO NOT voluntary self report to hprp. Once you do, they own your life. Instead, get a substance abuse eval done to prove you do not have a problem. You can PM me I’m also in MI
  12. Accused of diversion in VA - Need guidance

    Open a credit card, do what ever you can to prove you don’t have drugs in your system. You don’t want to end up in monitoring.
  13. You will learn to let go of the shame that comes with the situation, but this does not have to be career ending. It will get better ❤️‍?
  14. Diversion

    Keep working. Smart to get a drug test. Do not self report to a monitoring program. The BON isn’t definitely not your friend. Also, do let your lawyer scare you into keep paying them. I ended firing my lawyer b/c they weren’t willing to fight my dive...
  15. It just should be a reminder that you are not friends with co-worker, but just that. I was accused of diversion, and literally 2 nurses reached out to me after I’d been working there almost 5 years. My charges were dismissed and I’ll never befriend a...
  16. What State are you in? If you don’t want to disclose I completely understand. Im in MI and usually you see state or federal charges if it’s large quantities of controlled substances being diverted. But just to the south in OH they will try to throw t...
  17. You’re not going to jail. Was it only 1 vile? If charges are brought you’ll definitely need a lawyer to attempt to get the charges dismissed especially if you’re in a rehab/monitoring program. The issue with Federal charges is the possibility of loos...
  18. I was suspended from my job last week and was told there would be an internal investigation. ( co-sign discrepancy)I’m trying to get a job ASAP. I’m so nervous the places I’m applying are going to reach out to my job and they’ll say things that will ...
  19. Accused of diversion in Ohio

    I would deny drug diversion and fight that it was a documenting error. When I had my interview with the investigator my stupid lawyer didn’t even say a word. He was just on the call.
  20. Accused of diversion in Ohio

    I’d call a lawyer that specializes in dealing with Licensing. Ask if they offer free consultations. What did the health department investigator ask? Did you tell they you took it upon yourself to take a drug test?
  21. Accused of diversion in Ohio

    You are not going to jail. This isn’t a criminal case unless you were contacted by your city’s district attorney. I’ve only seen criminal charges when like hundreds of narcotics are missing. You can not avoid the investigator but no not admit anythin...
  22. Anyone else have this happen? I have an open formal complaint, my license remains active. I have had an interview with the investigator with my lawyer on the call(nothing in person b/c of covid). Next step is responding to allegations. My manager cal...
  23. HPRP evaluation

    HPRP is very expensive. You have to pay for drug testing, addiction specialist, therapy, and attend AA/NA for 3 years. If your on probation for diversion it’s hard to get work. I’ve heard Divita is hprp friendly. The cost of the eval is $850.
  24. I’m in MI our Monitoring program charges $850 for an eval. I reached out to a few private addiction doctors and they want between $600-$800. It’s better to go with a private practice doctor vs the States evaluator b/c they will definitely twist your ...
  25. TNPAP Right or Wrong?

    I am so unbelievably sorry this happened to you. Unfortunately with the mental health history you are going to be stuck in the monitoring program if you want to work as a nurse. I would definitely fight to continue to stay on your prescription medica...
