    Certified addict nurse able to report nurse patient?

    Maybe I am wrong but why would I go seek help to get clean if I am going to be thrown under a bus? I believe that as a nurse we are punished for seeking help. There is a big difference in working while impaired and getting help so you are clean. That...
