I made a huge mistake, and diverted after injuring my back. When I was confronted, I owned up to everything, and referred to IPN. It took a month for the evaluator to send in her report, and I got the worst case scenario. 28 day minimum with residential requirement. I can't leave my family for that long. My wife would have to quit her job to watch our daughter, and can't drive. I explained that to the evaluator, but that's what she recommended anyways.
I'm at a loss. I know it's going to go to the board, and they'll just refer me right back to IPN. Will I at least get a clean slate and another eval? Or am I stuck with worst case? I really want to do the right thing, and I love caring for people as a nurse. Is this the end? Has anyone else been down this road that can offer advice?
