1. reinstatement after voluntary surrender???

   wubbzy replied to cleanandserene's topic in Recovery

   I guess it depends on what state you are in and your BON requirements. You'll most likely have some hoops to jump through. As long as you are serious about your sobriety, do the next right thing, and comply with the BON's requirements, it should work...

2. Serious, what do you think?

   wubbzy replied to SoberRN's topic in Recovery

   I think I missed the reply that was removed. Addiction/alcoholism is documented by the AMA as a disease. My personal thought is that as long as no one was "physically" hurt by the actions of the "user" and they want and seek help, they should get it ...

3. I am so blessed!

   Your words are very encouraging, Exnursie. Thank You. The treatment facility that I was in last year only hire if one in recovery has 2 years. So I've got about 11 months to go before I could work there....even as a tech, or in dietary, or in houseke...

   Congratulations! My daughter is grown and I laugh at my 11 yr old grd dtr and 2 1/2 yr old gr son when they do things like she used to do. They all grow up sp fast and the blessings are when I can enjoy them clean and sober!

5. A running list of low abuse specialties

   wubbzy replied to shopgirl44's topic in Recovery

   A lot of great suggestions here. I'm leaning towards trying to eventually work in a treat/rehab facility. I would love to help people the way I was helped.

6. need some support

   wubbzy replied to knightsofni's topic in Recovery

   A lot of encouraging comments here. It's too bad that after so much time in recovery, you are having to deal with the wreckage of your past again. But you are doing what you need to do to get thru it all and have so much support. But I was also wonde...

   Hi all......I haven't been on here for quite a long time now. I've been trying to get my life back on track. I have been thru soooooo much.......but NOW things are starting to move ahead. I was getting so depressed about hitting a brick wall at every...

8. HIPAA violation wanted more responses

   wubbzy replied to pollyanna83's topic in General Nursing

   I'm not sure I would have wanted to stay at that particular hospital under those circumstances. However, that was her choice, she was still a patient there and deserved the best treatment just as much as any other other patient there. The other nurse...

12. Please tell me your opinion

    wubbzy replied to power99's topic in Recovery

    The thing is that we try to move on, we try to put the past behind us, and we try to do the next right thing. The problem is that others don't see that. All they see is the PAST! It sucks! There are too many people out there who are biased and judgem...

    wubbzy replied to acceleratedstudent's topic in HIPAA

    When you find out what you want, please let me know. I am going after a doctor, pharmacist, and hospital for violating the federal HIPAA law with me! I'll be interested to know what you find out and so will my attorney. Thanks!

14. Looking for help... desperate and tired

    wubbzy replied to jnks's topic in Recovery

    I did the same thing with the IV Dilaudid where I worked at. My patients always got what they were suppose to have and I kept what was suppose to be wasted. I tried to quit on my own a few times without success. I would get so sick trying to stop and...
