Nursing Jobs for Felons

[angelah2003]

Yeah, it does have the discipline comment in it. I am still trying to find a job. it sure sucks..I too had to be watched to pee in a cup. Over, and over and over...I have been being punished for what I did since 2004....my license was revoked in 2006...they didn't even take any action on my license until AFTER I had already learned my lesson. It took forever to get everything done, then go beg for my license back. I thought that was the hard part...I was dead wrong. The hard part is finding a job with all this on my record. I did have an interview this past thursday at a nursing home, and the lady sounded pretty positive...but she is on vacation this week, and Im thinkin if she wanted to hire me, she would have done it before vacation..Im thinkin about going to talk to some of the doctors I used to work with in the past....maybe that will help. it's worth a try.

Congratulations on at least getting an interview, that's better luck than I have had. All I need is for someone to just give me a chance. I darn near begged the Nursing Board to please remove that "prior discipline" comment and they not only refused but informed me it will be on there as long as I have a license. I even contacted a lawyer about petitioning them and I was told that they have not had any success in prior cases. At least they were honest and did not give me false hopes and charge me a lot of money. My felony will be removed from my record, why won't the Board do the same. we are convicted and punished the rest of out lives.
