1. To self report DUI or not

   Tiffany Reed replied to ct-rn's topic in Criminal

   as I've said, every conclusion a BON will make is entirely different even if you have the same story as another nurse. which is why you should contact an attorney. from first hand experience I can tell you that law enforcement has a duty to rep...

2. RN Licence on Probation

   go into dialysis nursing. they hire nurses with narcotic restrictions and are used to board sanctions. even if it is not drug related- your best bet is dialysis.

4. To self report DUI or not

   Tiffany Reed replied to ct-rn's topic in Criminal

   I apologize for speed reading. the most the board will do is reach out and request a copy of the police report. if you disclosed the city/township/village it took place, they could possible obtain it themselves. every BON has investigators and attorn...

5. Travel Nursing Agencies & Background Checks (Frustrated)

   Tiffany Reed replied to JuicyJ95's topic in Travel

   unfortunately no, travel agencies see this as a liability. did you have any action taken towards your nursing license because of these prior instances before you were a nurse? try and get any and all convictions expunged. it will be treated as i...

7. Hawaii RN license by endorsement after completing probation in another state

   Tiffany Reed replied to sheela's topic in Criminal

   is your probation terms met? do you have an unencumbered license? it should go through endorsement just fine. you will have to provide your side of the story, what the outcome was and how you will maintain yourself for this to never happen again.

8. To self report DUI or not

   Tiffany Reed replied to ct-rn's topic in Criminal

   the BON will always find out when you change jobs and get a background/fingerprint. potential employers are obligated as this is a reportable offense to send your failed background check to your home states BON. Are you in AA? do you have a sob...

9. Dismissed marijuana charge

   Tiffany Reed replied to Needadvise24's topic in Criminal

   talk to an attorney or look up your states process on expungement. you still should have reported this on the NCLEX questionnaire prior to taking it and submitted it to the board. any deceptive answers or "lies" will put you on your BONs radar for th...

10. To Surrender or Not Surrender

    Tiffany Reed replied to 121107's topic in Criminal

    I agree. criminal convictions that lead to the BON disciplinary action can also be expunged- but the BONs usually just redact whatever was expunged criminally from the already provided consent agreement. I have seen a small number of sta...
