  2. No response from facility

    rn1965 replied to nrsgalaxy99's topic in Nurses Recovery

    Oh, I see. Wow, that is too bad the facility isn't doing their part. Sorry for that. Good idea with dialysis, that is recovery/monitoring friendly, so you should be good. Hope it works out for you!...

    rn1965 replied to nrsgalaxy99's topic in Nurses Recovery

    rn1965 replied to Idkwhattoput's topic in General Nursing

  7. Have I finally adjusted emotionally to being stigmatized?

    rn1965 replied to catmom1's topic in Nurses Recovery

    rn1965 replied to MSRN2020's topic in Nurses Recovery

    Hello! I am in the pre-enrollment for TPAPN and my eval is coming up. It would be great if I could pick your brain on what to expect. I know a little about TPAPN and yes, you have to tell your...

    rn1965 replied to nurse2bguy555's topic in General Students

  13. Postive THC random test

    rn1965 replied to RN117's topic in Nurses Recovery

    Call an attorney, YESTERDAY. DO NOT TALK TO THE BON without one. Do not admit ANYTHING to your employer. I am sorry you are going through this, and I hope you come out unscathed. Some do! Good...

  14. Rehab? Asking for a future nurse

    rn1965 replied to HiddenShadow20's topic in Nurses Recovery

    Please CONSULT an attorney. My advise, if you are healthy and looking after your sobriety, DO NOT SAY A THING. Look at the recovery forum. It will cost you thousands of dollars to complete the...

    rn1965 replied to AZRN31's topic in Nurses Recovery

    rn1965 replied to AZRN31's topic in Nurses Recovery

    They may not force your into IOP, but, start saving, in case they do, also look for some free/reduced/sliding scale fee programs. Maybe the health department can help out with that. I was originally...

  19. CA/ AZ diversion program

    rn1965 replied to AZRN31's topic in Nurses Recovery

    If your residence on record is AZ, I would try to enroll in their CANDO program. But first, consult an AZ attorney who practices in the area of RN license defense. Just my 2 cents. Good luck and...

    rn1965 replied to buggynurse's topic in Nurses Recovery

  24. Seeking advice/information

    rn1965 replied to Nurse2007's topic in Nurses Recovery

    rn1965 replied to RN2364's topic in Nurses Recovery
