Reinstated!!

Published

So I was given good news by the NCBON! I'm being given back my licensure with stips for the next few years. I am ready to get back to my career, but I also feel like I have a better grasp on who I am now. Things that I forgot about myself or put to the side because of my addiction. I am truly grateful for the second chance, and this new awakening that I've had!

Now time to find a job lol...If anyone has any suggestions or ideas or even places that are friendly to nurses in recovery I'd appreciate any suggestions! I'm in North Carolina...

Congrats..

Best of luck in all you do :~)

Have you thought about psych? We do tend to be a bit recovery-friendly... and depending on what your stips are, there may a niche in psych that could accommodate them.
