1. Seeking guidance..

   Twoyearnurse replied to MSRN3488's topic in Nurses Recovery

   It depends on the state. I was evaluated by an addictions counselor and never saw an MD or Psychiatrist whatsoever. My BON accepted my treatment and their recommendations as was. Maybe some folks...

2. Thinking about NP school

   Twoyearnurse replied to Nursebry91's topic in Nurses Recovery

   Most schools require that you have an “unencumbered” license. If you do land in a program that doesn’t require this, you will have to face the challenge of finding clinical sites who are willing...

3. Seeking guidance..

   Twoyearnurse replied to MSRN3488's topic in Nurses Recovery

   My experience with my board was that they followed the recommendation from the evaluator. I was evaluated and assessed to only require outpatient treatment and my board honored this. The guidance...

4. Seeking guidance..

   Twoyearnurse replied to MSRN3488's topic in Nurses Recovery

   I am in Alaska. I worked in an area outside of nursing. I looked for jobs that had the requirement of “four year degree in human services or related field” and figures, hey! Nursing is totally a...

5. Seeking guidance..

   Twoyearnurse replied to MSRN3488's topic in Nurses Recovery

   Heya, we don’t have a monitoring program in my state (ever) and are monitored directly through our BON. Often the disciplinary programs afford the nurse going through them a clear license at the...

6. Are we limited on this?

   Twoyearnurse replied to Jammer52's topic in Nurses Recovery

9. Too young to get license back?!

   Twoyearnurse replied to Rdsrn's topic in Nurses Recovery

   Hi you! 27? Only working for 2 years as a nurse? Diverting? You are *exactly* where I was 4 years ago (I've got one year of monitoring left). The board cleared me to work after 6 months, I opted to...

10. A Recovery Poll, Sort Of

    Twoyearnurse replied to TNPAPnurse's topic in Nurses Recovery

    I intend to see how I feel when I am done with my monitoring. I have genuinely built relationships in AA with people who I look up and admire. I mean, good grilled cheesus, some of those folks have...

11. I Need the Hassle of Monitoring

    Twoyearnurse replied to J.Adderton's topic in Nurses Recovery

    I share in the sentiment that my monitoring agreement helps me. We don't have an alternative to discipline program in my state so it all goes through the BON. My agreement doesn't even try to pretend...

    Twoyearnurse replied to StanleyJ's topic in Nurses Recovery
