Wow what a story.. Can't help but wonder why u were so close and didn't report your script??? Maybe it is your calling to do something else.

My issue was not drugs a DUI got me in trouble for 2 years. Someone did take the time to hear my story and she appreciated my complete honesty. She followed up by checking public records and everything I told her was there for her to see.. I was hire...

Unfortunately even if your license was reinstated lets say on probation for 5 years I feel you would have a very difficult time finding a job with a felony.. So happy your clean and wish you much luck..

LTC certainly isn't for everyone but once you've mastered the demands of that job you can work anywhere. Those poor old folks need caring efficient nurses at the end of their life,they deserve it.. BTW for all of the addicts on here wonder why LTC is...

I kinda agree with the lawyer it worked for me...

Just got reinstated yesterday. Don't give up people and always believe in yourself... My new motto: "Don't look back cause your not going that way"

I once asked my CM "Do people really get out of this program" Ha she's probably really sick of me by now out of 400 clients she knows me by my first name.. Wouldn't want her job for anything. Wish me luck with this job please I really don't have to l...

I understand. I'm actually grateful for the entire experience. I so needed a life style change. I will always be grateful. From now on I intend to protect everything that is important to me and that dam sure includes my nursing license. Best of luck ...

I know exactly what your feeling. OMG 5 months away that's huge.. My target date got set back one month before I was done because of a missed check-in that was also a test they pushed me back 4 months, thought I was going to die seriously. Then my he...

Thank you everyone. I feel like I just graduated from college with my new nursing degree. A new life a new beginning. I wish all this joy to each and everyone of you. My son said he is more proud of me now than when he watched me take that walk for m...

And so it begins.. You say it was only one mistake but dear it was a big one. Expect at least 5 years of monitoring at least that's what the state of Indiana would give you. It will be a long journey for you get support and dig down deep into your so...

So love that little icon makes me smile. I do have 5 more months of monitoring but I got this.. Whoop Whoop...

What does it matter to you about the "type" of testing they use. Your social drinking will get you busted. Since you don't know when your test will pop up its a dangerous game to play. Curiosity in this forum doesn't fly well.

Definitely expect Etg testing. I've read at least 90 hours from your last drink..

Why do you have a narcotic restriction if your addiction issue was alcohol ??

Just tell them your simply looking for a change. LTC however is incredibly stressful, lots of admissions, huge med pass, working short staffed, but if you can work in LTC you can work anywhere. Good Luck!!

That's awesome. Sounds like something I would do. I am near the end of my RMA. May 15 was my end date and found out yesterday I have to wait until August for my reinstatement hearing.. I refuse to let them beat me down.. It's was so wonderful to hear...

In 2012 I too gave up my ISNAP program here in Indiana. My life was a hot mess so too speak. I was suspended for a year and had to prove to the board that I could complete a full year if compliance so I dug myself up and out of the mess I made and he...

I missed two in a row and one was a test. My son was home from Afganistan and I totally got caught up in his visit. ISNAP slapped me with 3 extra months.. My reinstatment is finally here May15.

I too am up for reinstatement very soon and I will be moving to California in 10 months. My California application for endorcement also has a question relating to prior convictions, my demise was a DUI 3 years ago I too thought about no disclosing bu...

To the lady with chronic pain issues let me just say that your defensiveness speaks louder than words. Once you report maybe you can find someone who can really help you with your addiction because that is truly and clearly your issue. I've been thro...

I agree with the pervious post; sounds like your concerns may be do to an addiction problem..
