Forgive my ignorance...what fee's are being charged by IPN? I'm new to IPN and everything I have read up on states "there is only an annual fee of $50.00 (for relapse recovery)". Of course, I know the responsibility of recommended treatment is up to each participant, but does IPN also charge seperate fee(s) for participation?

ashleaRN- Much like your situation it also took several months before I was notified by BON. My employer 1st gave me the opportunity to self report. Unfortunately, I did not heed their advise, with great regret and eventually I had and ESO placed on my license (and still do). Which prevents me from working as an RN...if I had it to do all over again........I would have taken my employers advise and definitely self reported. Hinesite is 20/20. Thanks to all of you thus far who posted a response. I am a brand new member, although I have been watching everyone else from a distance for a while now. Not a creeper, I swear! I have just not had a lot of confidence to share my story/experiences until now. Thanks again

:confused:I have been an RN almost 3 years, but several months ago I was reported to the FL BON (for testing + for opiates). I have since contacted IPN and anxiously awaiting my evaluation with an addiction specialist. Although, I am totally comitted to doing whatever it takes to ensure this never happens again. I am losing faith that I will ever be where I once was...I had a pretty good job making GREAT money and respect of those around me. Now, I can't look anyone in the eyes because of my shame & guilt. I am unsure of what lies ahead for me: financially, mentally, etc....Will I ever be able to become a productive member of the nursing field again?? Oh, how I do miss it so much.
