Worked with EXPIRED LPN license for 5 days and didn't know

Published

Hey, long story short I worked with expired LPN license at the facility I work at and was totally unaware. I happen to get on the BON and looked my name up and BOOM....Expired...My heart dropped...I immediately paid the 180.00 and the next day I was active. I messed up when I felt so bad about it that I told a co worker who in returned told the DON. He wrote me up but said that someone could still report me to the BON. If they did what would happen? Should I call the BON first thing Monday morning and let them know and just let the chips fall were they may? I hate this feeling. I totally didn't know. I am active know but I did work 5 days with expired licensed. Have this ever happen to anyone? I feel like I am the only idiot who has ever made this BIG mistake. Advice please....
