Hiya, They may have you participate in a drug rehab program.. There are ones specificaly for medical personel. So, where you convicted of these charges? That may make the difference on where you may be hired to work. You may have to look into working in a drug rehab facility or even a detox unit.. Sometimes, I've seen people go into drug counseling. That's an avenue you may want to look into.. So best of luck to you, and please keep me posted...BTW, Has your attorney handled these type of cases before?  Just wondered.. Hugs, Teresa
