This is something nurses need to discuss , the number of nurses who get board complaints and have no idea how to handle them . Or have preconceived ideas on how to proceed. And most complaints have nothing to do with nursing .

I have found that boards are very disorganized, have even lost cases. That is crazy 2 separate orders to follow. So many things wrong with how they do things . I am glad this was worked out and you have your license , it took a long time and this...

a lot of complaints that go to the BON are from vicious family, neighbors , ex spouses . A real BON would recognize that they are retaliating and not take action . That is not the case with AZBON, they will jump on it. File against the nurse. Usually...

if someone puts in a board complaint , ex who ever and it 'sticks " which the corrupt boards do make it 'stick" (at least in arizona) then you can't sue them. Because it shows that it was substantial . Before anyone goes to nursing school figure out ...

board atty's are not always the best. they tend to make a bigger case out of nothing , to make more money. And they have 'side talks " always wanting a plea , deal when you have done nothing wrong. This case is very COMMON with BON's , they know reta...

Kudos to you ! Are you working CLNC ? so many hate bedside , love it when young people have goals of something ELSE besides nursing !

I think you should be OK , the one thing they (azbon) loves to hit people on is the past , and doesn't matter how long ago, and if you disclose it. to them a biggee. They make a big deal out of that but then it never matters in the final decision . ...

That is true , depends on the action , loc , doc , not a real big deal but this is another area boards play favortism, they give their 'buddies' a 'fine" which is non punitive. by buddies, they all attend the same faith .

TheOwalrus. Most likely you will get licensed , but I have seen az deny nurses a license based on something very old , been working a long time. Now that bad part of that is AZ denial is PUNITIVE (they do not allow u to just withdraw application) Su...

That is correct, and for that reason I have seen RN's who actually do patient harm get dismiss, letter of concern , or DOC so they can get their NP . When the board is not suppose to be looking at future goals to render decisions. In your case ,...

WOW!, scary stuff I know. In some states if you have a ding on your license they will not give you the NP. I was told once they get paid for each discipline not sure but seems that way. And why isn't this 'stale" , or SOL up after 20 years , WOW! ! ...

WOW! no nurse can trust this Dr , that is standard procedure. every nurse should refuse to take any oral order from this Dr. Sounds like something else going on !

Katie M , that is a really good response . TAANA, is good, but you must either pay for atty or do it yourself. one thing is the boards are corrupt, and will make sure you get fired, and out of work asap, that will stop you. Unless you get creative ,...

thank you for sharing . I have found with other similarly situated it is never in the past. One NP who was railroaded as well by az BON, years later called me up when she signed up for soc security , they started taking out her student loan out of th...

All you can do is gather others to help, find someone to sponsor a bill that will curb their power. Seems like state agencies all stick together . Put up a fb or web page and have others come on and discuss this horrible situation. No way would anon...

that is a lot of damages, I know it is expensive , but I'd file against them . Many in this position are so sickened by the injustice of those who are suppose to protect the public and be fair and impartial are not, they never want to be a nurse agai...

As far as getting another job, well it pretty much destroys any chance of that . once you are reported to the data bank , you cannot work anywhere medicare money is involved. not even in the kitchen.

So sad that nurses are the ones that are here to kick someone where they are down, "she deserved to lose her license " . How rude and insensitive, but that is her opinion , and she has a right to air this. This happens with criminals too people post...

what I have found in AZ , is that when you have a board complaint , the board will call every place you work or have slipped up in telling them where you are planning on working , they will call them and tell them and dramatize the complaint. In one ...

just read another nurse had a board complaint , anonymous, this should never be , criminals have more rights than nurses. You have a right to face your accuser. How can you defend yourself. ? It really stinks when a nurse gets caught up in this !

First of all I am not "triggered" . Don't use psych terms on me, this is very typical of the corrupt az board of nursing. You responded to a post and you DO NOT HAVE an experience. You are undermining , a legitimate concern , and should be a conc...

That is their mandate, but that is not what is happening, and if anyone thinks so, prove it. They are protecting others similarly situated. I am not here to argue either, but feel the need to educate others . I always wonder why people come on and m...

Many board complaints , on nurses like yourself , after 20 years you think that is to your advantage ? A bd member will tell you , "it just means you haven't learned anything in 20 years ". And most cases have nothing to do with nursing . Before you...
