Hi there,

There are many RNs who have remote criminal backgrounds so, don't feel as though you can't become one. Before any more is said however, you need to communicate with the state board of nursing and ask how your particular offense will impact getting a nursing license. There may be steps you need to take to make yourself eligible or you may have a clear pathway. The ball is in your court.

Good luck,

R
