Can a felon become an R.N.?

A friend from work used to be a respiratory therapist and did not renew his license because he was planning on returning to school to become an R.N. . During the interim he was caught driving on a revoked license and was charged and convictes with a felony. Now he is not sure if he should pursue a different carreer or attempt the R.N. . I think the medical stuff is all he has ever done. Any help ? Can he get a license or should he look elsewhere. He's never been into drugs and has a couple DUI's from years back but thats it.


    




V.T.V.RAM
It depends on the state and also the nature of felony.For example, in Florida , you have to supply information regarding any criminal history,which includes both misdemeanors and felony crimes. Many people worry that if they have a felony they won't be licensed, but that isn't necessarily the truth. The Florida Board of Nursing will look at each case individually and on a case-by-case manner.
So, your friend need not worry.
