  4. Starting Nursing school... to disclose or not to disclose? HELP!

    carrimarie1010 replied to jeshicuhx3's topic in Nurses Recovery

    It's great to be confident but I fear you're over confident. Recovery is 1 day at a time. I can promise you none of us planned on screwing up our license....It's not just your drug of choice you have...

  5. Where do I go from here??

    carrimarie1010 replied to brylee621's topic in Nurses Recovery

    It varies from state to state. My state will let u re apply after 1 year of a surrender. As much as it sucks to talk to the board you need to call them or at least email them explain your actions and...

  6. Reinstated!!

    carrimarie1010 replied to HunnieBadger's topic in Nurses Recovery

  7. Reported to BON because of eating disorder!?!?

    carrimarie1010 replied to RoamFreeRN's topic in Nurses Recovery

    Total HIPAA violation on his part. You could likely nail him to the wall with calling your mother. Sounds like he is bullying you....stand up for your self! Good

    carrimarie1010 replied to Deebles's topic in Nurses Recovery

    carrimarie1010 replied to Momma79's topic in Nurses Recovery

    I agree with the above post. We all wanted to throw the towel in and basically hide at the beginning. I know I did and I tried like all get out to convince myself I didn't want to be a nurse anymore....

  11. NC LPN lost license..now what???

    carrimarie1010 replied to lovess's topic in Nurses Recovery

    My heart goes out to you. Can you reapply to get your restricted license back? I am not in NC but in my state you can do that. I would start there first. As far as going back to school, I would just...

  12. Help here

    carrimarie1010 replied to Gonesilent13's topic in Nurses Recovery

    I agree with the above posts. There is no reason a needle would be in ones pocket even in an emergency situation it would likely end up on the floor. I just hope she isn't using and driving your kids...

  13. Help here

    carrimarie1010 replied to Gonesilent13's topic in Nurses Recovery

    Clearly the problem is deeper than I was aware of. My apologies. No child should have to endure that. Saying to her "is this what you got high on last week" is a smart a$$ statement, not a caring one....

  14. Help here

    carrimarie1010 replied to Gonesilent13's topic in Nurses Recovery

    I agree with catmom1. You are using medical terms and even saying "standard practice" seems odd to me. Anyway, I will answer your questions. It isn't common to end up with a needle in you pocket....

    carrimarie1010 replied to amber24c's topic in Nurses Recovery

    I didn't fill out the applications. I sent a résumé in with a cover letter. In my case I am on probation with no restrictions. In my cover letter I stated that but didn't go into specifics. I did...

  17. Does anyone else feel violated?

    carrimarie1010 replied to HunnieBadger's topic in Nurses Recovery

    I agree with you. I hate the meetings. Everyone is so bitter and angry. They are very cold, to me anyway, when they found out that I am a practicing RN because most of them can't find a job over min...

  18. TPAPN and EtG

    carrimarie1010 replied to Callahan, RN's topic in Nurses Recovery

    "They" is the AR state BON. They keep it very tight lipped about what they are testing for therefore you can't see results without there permission. The only person that I know that was able to get...

  21. Narcotic free areas?

    carrimarie1010 replied to wish_me_luck's topic in Nurses Recovery

    If its just "narcotics" then psych is normally probation friendly. You will however be around scheduled ADD and ADHD meds.... Rarely are "narcotics" on those

    carrimarie1010 replied to carrimarie1010's topic in Nurses Recovery

    What town do you live in? You can private msg me if you don't mind telling me. I ask because I pay $15 for collection but there is a place here that charges $45. I don't even know how many apps I...

  25. Drug screening with first lab.

    carrimarie1010 replied to carrimarie1010's topic in Nurses Recovery

    I can't. They said I have to have permission from the board. I doubt they will take "just cause I want to" as a
