I'm currently in another state looking to relocate to TX. I am very flexible as far as where we go.

I would like to know of any leads on potential employers willing to hire someone in TPAPN. Thanks!

Thanks for your response. I actually spoke with the physician recruiter that I have been working with about this immediately. She did not know anything about it, but is checking into it with administrative people and is supposed to let me know soon. I would absolutely never leave my position here without knowing for sure that they would be willing to work with me on this. I am also wondering if there would be any advantage to waiting until the charges are older (5 years) to see if the same recommendation would be made then. Certainly if my home state had something like this in place, I would have already gotten through most of it. As others have posted...I have found direct communication to be very difficult. I have called mutiple times the past 2 days and all I get is a recording.

I am currently working as an adult NP in another state. I would like to relocate to Texas and have received a great offer for a job there. I was convicted of DUI on 2 instances in 2007. (Had been going through a difficult time and made some VERY stupid decisions). I have completed treatment here and have continued working without any discipline or restrictions on my licensure. The TX BON is willing to approve a provisional license with the agreement of enrolling in TPAPN. At this point, I have no idea if the potential employer will still be able to hire me with the job restrictions in this program. Are there any other NPs out there who are in TPAPN and working with these restrictions? Do any of you know if they would consider modifications to the restrictions on an individual basis? I am trying to find out as much as I can before I resign my position here and take my family to Texas....I'm also wondering if there is any way I can begin some of the processing before I actually live there. I will be calling them soon to try and get direct answers, but according to other threads I have read, it seems that getting through to a real person is difficult. Thanks for sharing any information/insight with me!
