Hello everyone, I have been practicing as a RN for 12 years now, prior to getting my license, I had a couple of criminal offenses on my record. I declared them both and had no trouble getting approved for my license. Now I am just looking ahead and wondering if anyone else has had to declare the same offenses for the advanced practitioner license? I was wondering if getting them expunged would even be worth it? I am in Texas if that helps. So to simplify what I am asking, has anyone had to first declare criminal offenses to obtain their RN, and then later declare the same offenses to obtain their advanced practitioner license? If so, was it the same process? Were you worried about anything possibly getting denied?
Thanks in advance!
