2. DWI IN TX

   RickG85 replied to Blee88's topic in Criminal

   Yep, I told them about the DUI during fingerprints and she said "that's fine, we've seen it all". The equip or whatever it's called was more in depth but she just asked for an explanation and I told them what happened and I was sorry and she goes OK ...

3. DWI IN TX

   RickG85 replied to Blee88's topic in Criminal

   Nope, no lawyer. This is in a different state but very similar rules. I just opted for probation with a mark on my license. The initial meeting with the board stated I get a drug and alcohol evaluation and the evaluator recommended just a year of dru...

5. Travel Nursing after Discipline

   RickG85 replied to uttxrn's topic in Travel

   Yea NURSYS will show everything, no sense in hiding it. I looked up a former colleague and saw their license had lapsed in 2 states, both of which has discipline, and a third state showing they had applied but the BON requested a drug evaluation whic...

7. Arby's Onion Bun with Poppy Seeds

   RickG85 replied to RickG85's topic in Recovery

   I did two dipstick tests at my hospital and they were both fine. I'm almost positive I'll be fine, I'm just less than 2 weeks away from finishing this and I'll be damned if I get screwed because of a few poppy seeds

8. Arby's Onion Bun with Poppy Seeds

   RickG85 posted a topic in Recovery

   I had an Arby's sandwich last night. The manager said there's no poppy seeds in the bun BUT after looking it up this morning it says it's topped with poppy seeds. Of course I was selected to test today.. Does anyone know how quick it clears your syst...

9. Anyone else being GPS tracked?

   RickG85 replied to RN0904's topic in Recovery

   Any of you with android should look into rooting your phone and installing a "GPS Mock" app. It spoofs your location so when you spoof it to the AA meeting and then check in it looks like you're at the meeting.

    RickG85 replied to RN0904's topic in Recovery

    I don't know how IOS works but on android if it's rooted you could set "mock locations" which is basically spoofing your location to an app. I would just go that route and spoof your location to the meetings because **** that s***

11. Question about OK peer program

    RickG85 replied to Kelso918's topic in Recovery

    The fact they didn't drug test you is a good thing. I would hire an attorney that specializes in this kind of stuff. There's a chance they can do their own investigation and determine the facility was at fault for their method of charting. Say they m...

12. Isolating, Obsessing, Life on hold

    RickG85 replied to Recovering_RN's topic in Recovery

    I'm glad you posted this because I feel the same way. I started to try and be a little more social and meet girls but telling them (or anyone really) that I don't drink is such a buzzkill. Even if they say they don't mind I still feel awkward. There'...

14. In TPAPN and currently in IOP. Tested pos in IOP...do I need to tell my CM?

    RickG85 replied to JustBreatheRN's topic in Recovery

    I'm like 99% sure you have the IOP people sign a release so they can discuss your care with your CM. They will tell them about your UDS, there's no doubt about it. Talk to your IOP counselor and see if/when they're sending the UDS report. I wouldn't ...

15. Steps to reporting Med Diversion

    RickG85 replied to Bsnrn0815's topic in General Students

    Unless you saw the person pop a norco at the nurses station then I wouldn't say a word. I'm not even sure why you would consider this
