    What to do for work/school if you have a felony?
    I have a felony on my record from 4-5 years ago, possession of 2 ridilin pills that did not belong to me.
    Does this automatically mean that I can never become a nurse?
    I am curious if anyone knows what would be a good thing to go to school for with this dreaded felony on my record!

    I'm sorry, but yes, this means you cannot become a nurse. The nursing profession wants a totally clean record. Considering this was a drug related charge, this prevents you even more since nurses deal with drugs on a daily basis.

    It puts many careers out of the question. You need to consider what you want to do, often a business where you can go into your own, or one that needs no professional license
