Texas pretty strict

I am wondering about a good state to go to if I have a past, way before nursing that isn't going to make me do their peer assistance program. I'm okay with it isnt a hassle. I know why they do it but at the same time. I'd rather not be identified by my past non professional life. I decided to become a nurse because I care for people but at the same time I would never do anything to jeapordize my license or hurt any of my patients.

    It's hard to answer your question without knowing more details.

    Like what would you need to know?

    Anything that can be found on a background check is going to trigger further evaluation. Some states might be more lenient with a single, old charge but several charges, fairly recent charges, etc -- most states are going to make you do some sort of monitoring.

    I had the same problem as u. When I applied for my loc in Ca and Nv. All I had to do was a letter of conviction. I never had to do a peer assistance program. And I've never had anything show up on my license.

    This is the nurses with disabilities forum - do you have a disability? Or a criminal concern? Or are you in recovery? There are specific forums for those topics also.
