Westerly, RI asked in Employment Law for Rhode Island

Q: To renew my ri pharmacy tech I license do i have to tell the board of health i plead guilty to breathalizer refusal

I was arrested & charged with 1st offense d.u.i in march but they dropped that d.u.i charge in april because i took the breathalizer refusal charge instead because i need to keep my job! My 6 month license loss will be done in sept. I will have no criminal record but the ri department of health asks if you took a plea deal. Is that for felonies only?? I just dont want to get in trouble for answering no since i have only civil infractions. Thanks so much!
