self reporting

I recently made a stupid mistake and got caught ,had a meeting with my HR (prescribing medication for myself). They offered me to self report and gave me the deadline. Now, my question is how to self report? Should I just describe the dry facts? Can I be emotional and more descriptive to explain my wrongdoing? Or it does not matter? Should I self report at all or wait for them to report me first?

The second question is regarding lawyer representation. I am in FL. Any recommendations? I called a few and facing a choice to pay flat fee for the case (rather high) or to  pay hourly towards my retained price after which it will be additional. I don't know how long it will take... Should I start with a lawyer before I self report?

I am on a personal leave until further notice

Right now I am so shaky....

    First, don’t do anything or report anything until you have retained a lawyer; specifically one that is familiar with the nursing board. I’m not from that state so I’m no help in recommending anyone. Just Google search lawyer for nursing board and see what comes up. Hope this helps and good luck!?

    Retain a TAANA attorney 

    Everything you tell your state monitoring program on your first call will be documented and their recommendations will be based on that call.

    Good luck
