RN and recent prostitution charge

Hi I was hoping someone might be able to give me some information. I'm searching for some info for my sister. unfortunately she was going through a rough time and quit her job as a RN last summer and became and escort for a few months. I think she was starting to burn out and she just kind of "lost it". Anyway long story short she ended up getting in trouble and got arrested back in December. Just recently did all of the court issues end and she took a deferred adjudication plea. I believe a prostitution charge is a class B misdeamenor. I've been trying to find out what disciplinary action she may be facing but it seems the TX board is very vague on the issue. Has anyone encountered something like this before? Or know what may happen to her? I'm really concerned because she's been really upset and down, with the unknown of everything. Since this happened in December, she's really cleaned up her act and is back working as an RN with a job that she absolutely loves. I can see the day to day fear in her because she doesnt know if she's going to lose her license or where to go from here. Does anyone know what happens with cases like this? Any input would be very helpful! Thank you!

questions we seem to be encountering more and more often have to do with the effects of a criminal history on nursing licensure:

  • is it possible to become licensed as a nurse if you have a criminal history and if so, can i get a job?
  • is it possible to become licensed as a nurse if you have a mip, dui, or other related charges?
  • what happens if you are charged or convicted of a crime after licensure?
  • can i go to nursing school and/or be licensed/be employed if my record has been sealed or expunged?
  • will i be able to go to nursing school and/or attend clinicals with a criminal record?
  • what can happen if i receive a mip/dui/dwi or other charge while still in school?

these are questions that the members of allnurses.com cannot answer. the only reliable source of information is your state board of nursing.

if one is currently licensed as a nurse and has been charged with or convicted of a felony or misdemeanor including dui/dwi or any criminal offense, one needs to contact the bon in every state one holds a license/wish to be licensed and ask their reporting requirements.

your sister needs to contact the bon directly.
