I've posted in this forum before, but I'm not sure if this is the most appropriate forum, being that I am not in recovery. I am being monitored for prior arrests, not convictions. I am a student and I...

Thank you! I have truly learned from my past and mistakes that I made when I was younger. I'm honestly thankful to even be in clinicals, so I'll do what I have to do to get through the program....

I've been in the monitoring program for 10 months. Almost completed the first year. I was told that when I complete nursing school, my case will be reviewed and the BON will determine if further...

Yes. I'll be graduating with a clean license. No restrictions whatsoever. It's just a little frustrating to have to deal with all of this while in school. I think I do deserved to be monitored for my...

Hi, I am a nursing student in Louisiana and I will soon be monitored for the duration of my remaining clinical courses due to prior drug related arrests (not convictions). I assume I will have to...

I agree. I never claimed to want to go bar hopping, nor did I say that I am urging to drink when and if I am monitored. All I did was say that I drink socially, which is approximately 1-2 times per...
