Do you think it is possible for recovering addict to become a nurse anesthetist?

totally ... if you are truly ready for it then yeah... i mean it's not like you are going to do it right after re-hab... but w/ guidance it can be done... recovering addicts are Strong people to go out there and face the world again.

No.

Yes. I used to work for a company that employed nurses. I know a few former addicts that I personally hired. You have to pass a drug screen as well as randoms. So, if you are interested in that sort of job and are truely recovered, go fo it. Plus, you are not obligated to reveal your past to your current employer.

Remember, everyone has a closet full of dirty laundry - no exceptions. It will not be easy, but with faith, hard work, training from a major university, and the time it will take to accomplish your preparation , your turn around and the view a potential employer may take will change. Go for it.
