Who can Answer this Question?

I'm new to this site, but I was researching all I can before I got involved. I have been convicted of a felony but none that apply to state laws that would prohibit me being a nurse. I just want to know if there is someone in the field who can tell me what my chances are. VA BON says it shouldnt prohibit licensure, but the schools say I may not be able to complete a clinical. What is the deal?

Get it in writing from the BON if it is not an issue with them, you need it in writing. Schools can set any requirements that they want. Same thing with hospitals. To do clinicals in most facilites now, they require background checks, and the school does not want to have any issues with you later on. It is their choice, but if you can present something in writing, then you have a chance, otherwise, they may not want to chance anything.

You need to be pro-active, and not reactive.
