  1. Unfair, unfair, unfair

    noctanol replied to hppygr8ful's topic in Nurses Recovery

    I think you miss the point. Board rules are draconian to say the least. That's what people (disciplined nurses) complain about. They desciplined a nurse who got a DWI in 1980 the same way as a nurse...

  2. Missed call to Recovery Trek??

    noctanol replied to jenniferlj24's topic in Nurses Recovery

    This may or may not help but I know a nurse that missed all her weekend check ins (60 or so) because they "never" test on the weekend. Nothing happened to he. She got cleared and has a legit license....

  3. Worried about friend

    noctanol replied to Emergent's topic in Nurses Recovery

    I'm sorry, I miss the point. Is this about you? Are you "the friend?" If she retired early, and drinks wine ALOT or daily then what is the issue? Is she not supposed to drink? Is she impaired and cant...

    noctanol replied to Big Blondie's topic in Nurses Recovery

    Get a lawyer and apply for early release. If you've already done more than 3 years they may let you out at the completion of the 4th year. And if they dont, it doesn't hurt.

  8. Received positive drug screen for cocaine and never used any illicit drugs how could this

    noctanol replied to Angelagenovese's topic in Nurses Recovery

    If you slept with someone that did cocaine then that explains it. "They" taste a little bit orally or sublingual then snort it, whatever doesn't go down to the lungs goes up to the mouth. If you kiss...

  9. tpapn start

    noctanol replied to 1nurse4you's topic in Nurses Recovery

  10. No rehire !!!!!!!!!!

    noctanol replied to Yorker's topic in General Nursing

    noctanol replied to Junebug59's topic in Nurses Recovery

    What do you mean by "abnormal results." I don't know about your state, but here in Texas it's just a money skim. If I were you and know that I dint used or drink, I would challenge the 6 month. If...
