1. Nursing School and a DUI

   HopeRules replied to NattieWattie's topic in Licensure: Criminal History

   Get it expunged. Otherwise it may impede your ability to be accepted at clinical sites. It will also help you with jobs in the future. Use the maximum legal remedies your state allows. It looks...

2. About to start pre-nursing program and had a DUI 11 years ago, should I continue?

   HopeRules replied to Joacas's topic in Licensure: Criminal History

   Joacas, No one else can answer your question. It is your decision. If you are applying in Florida I think you will have an easy time getting your license. It really depends on the state. California is...

3. Denied R.N. License after NCLEX

   HopeRules replied to Erational's topic in Licensure: Criminal History

   Agree that OP should wait the three months. It's really no time at all. Disagree it is "deceitful". The only way it is deceitful is if the OP lied about it. The OP has said he/she disclosed it....

4. Denied R.N. License after NCLEX

   HopeRules replied to Erational's topic in Licensure: Criminal History

   KelRN215, BSN, RN, I think you are correct that the OP has to complete probation prior to being issued a license in any state. I have not checked all the states but that seems reasonable. Frankly,...

5. Armor Correctional Healthcare: Will an Expungement record show

   HopeRules replied to daniellepittman's topic in Licensure: Criminal History

   TriciaJ, RN, The meaning of "expungement" can vary from state to state. You are correct that a "true" expungement would delete all the records. Many state licensing boards, for example, still want you...

6. Denied R.N. License after NCLEX

   HopeRules replied to Erational's topic in Licensure: Criminal History

   I think the OP has lived with the consequences. He/she is simply trying to research the best option for his/her life and career. This is the intelligent and moral thing to do as we affect our families...

7. Armor Correctional Healthcare: Will an Expungement record show

   HopeRules replied to daniellepittman's topic in Licensure: Criminal History

   Hi again, I reread your post carefully. Who hasn't had a traffic violation? Wow, I will never apply there. Unless, they just want you to disclose your record as an honesty test. Traffic records stay...

   HopeRules replied to daniellepittman's topic in Licensure: Criminal History

   Hi, First, I hope that isn't your true name you are using. If so, please change it right away for your sake. Second, I have never applied or know anything about that specific employer. I can only told...

9. Currently on DUI Probation with a recent ADN Degree

   HopeRules replied to rambo33's topic in Licensure: Criminal History

   rambo33, You could do a search for the florida BON and read their instructions. You can apply in any state and take your NCLEX here in California. I would research several states and make sure you...

10. CA BRN DUI Experience as a practicing nurse

    HopeRules replied to TitoG's topic in Licensure: Criminal History

    TitoG, I think you will be treated "like a drug addict" with all the associated monitoring. There is a one-size-fits-all approach to the board's methods which can unfairly punish people excessively....

11. Closing a CA BRN DUI Complaint/Investigation

    HopeRules replied to countryroad's topic in Licensure: Criminal History

    countryroad, I replied previously but for some reason it never showed up. It seems like you have a good plan. Thank you for sharing this story and please update so as to help another that may be in...

12. Application denied by California BRN

    HopeRules replied to CaliCalinurse's topic in Licensure: Criminal History

    CaliCalinurse, I'm sorry you have not yet heard anything about your license. Why do you think (if you have any idea) why you were only offered a probationary license in light of AB Bonta

13. ca brn

    HopeRules replied to ashhhnm's topic in Licensure: Criminal History

    ashhhnm, If the lady from enforcement told you that - hopefully you will have no problems. I don't know of an attorney and if I did tell you this post would be subject to the TOS policies on this...

14. ca brn

    HopeRules replied to ashhhnm's topic in Licensure: Criminal History

    Hi ashhhnm, I would consult an attorney who specializes in dealing with the BRN immediately. Your issue is probably not that it was reduced (assuming that was the case) but that it was an alcohol...

15. Expungement and Fingerprinting

    HopeRules replied to ginna88's topic in Licensure: Criminal History

    Did you get them expunged recently or a long time ago? Do you know if there is a time table between the processing of your expungement and the process of the courts updating the expungement?...
