Can a Convicted Felon get a Job as a Nurse?

Can a Convicted Felon get a Job as a Nurse?
I am a convicted felon with a civil rights violation. (I used to be a police officer) I have not been able to find a job and I am assuming it is because of my felony. I am planning on going back to school and wanted to become a registered nurse. I have heard conflicting info about a felon getting a nursing license. I have been told by two states board of nursing that I would have to graduate from nursing school before they would hear my case. That doesn't make any sense to me. Why would I want to pay my way through nursing school if there was a chance I couldn't get a license? I need to find out what type of licenses a felon can successfully obtain and what companies hire felons in the mean time. Any information will be helpful.

Thank You,

Jenn

Hello Jenn,

I'm sorry you are having so much trouble getting definitive information. The certification processes will vary from state to state. A felon may be eligible in one state and not another. Many states have on-line overviews of licensing procedures as they relate to various professions.

My next suggestion is to get some legal assistance in finding out about the licensing of felons in your state. You may be able to get low-cost or even no cost assistance at your local legal aid office.

Felon in AZ wants Jobs in Medical Field

Felon in AZ wants Jobs in Medical Field


Felon in AZ wants Jobs in Medical Field
Hi,

My name is Michael. I was convicted of assault about 12yrs ago. I have struggled finding decent paying jobs. Most employers especially out here in Arizona will not give me a chance. I may have an opportunity to go back to school through a veterans program called VRAP. They pay for you to go to school for a year and give around $1400.00 a month.

 My question is this I was thinking about going for a respiratory tech or x ray tech position but I doubt I can get licensed here in AZ. What other careers which require licensing can I do if any and also are they any agencies out in Phoenix that can help me. Thank you for any help you can provide.

Hello Michael,

You assume because of your conviction, you may not be able to be licensed. Why not find out for sure. Just because you are a felon don't assume anything. Here in NJ there are ex-offenders and  felons working in hospitals and doctor's offices.

If I were you, I would contact the Arizona Medical Board to see if you can be licensed.

For Respiratory Technicians contact:

Respiratory Board
1400 W. Washington, Suite 200
Phoenix, AZ 85007 602-542-5995
 http://www.rb.az.gov
 
For X-ray Technicians contact:

Medical Radiologic Technology Board of Examiners
4814 S. 40th St.
Phoenix, AZ 85040
602-255-4845
http://www.azrra.gov/mrtbe

I encourage every ex-offender and felon I meet, to apply for every job they feel they they are qualified for.  Whichever jobs you apply for, find out what are the requirements.  Do not assume because you are a felon, that you are not eligible.


I also suggest taking a visit to your local One-stop Career Center.  There you will find a number of free services that could help you get a job.  You will also find counselors who can provide information on career options.  Many counselors have experience assisting ex-offenders and felons looking for jobs   You can find the center near you here:
