Eligible for Rehire
Hello,
A year ago I was working for a social service (Group Home) and I had made an honest mistake.
I had left about 2 hours before my shift ended due to stomach problems as I had surgery back in 2012. I had left work and drove down the road (encase i got sick) as I did not want to be sick at the group home. So I pulled over to call the supervisor to inform her of what was happening. The supervisor had told me to get ahold of my boss, I called the boss and left a voicemail. Later that same week I made an honest error in my timesheet and added the 2 hours I did not work. This was done Thursday (I left Tuesday) the time sheet was not due until that Monday. On Friday the day after I filled out the time sheet I got a call to the office only to find out I had been terminated. No written or verbal warning...
Now would I be eligible for rehire a year later or has this employment handed me permanent dismissal?

If you meant rehire with the same company, then you may want to speak to that supervisor again. Find out if letting you go was permanent or is there a chance to be hired back.
Companies and other businesses have state and city laws to follow, but this may fall under company policies. And company policies aren't always fair or liked by employees, customers or potentials of either.
If you meant finding a job in a different social service organization, if not a group home but some kind of care giving job, then don't hide this in interview for a position but I don't believe that being let go for a paperwork error, if it was truly the first and only one would hold you back from other jobs in the same field but not same company. Most important will be how you treat and care for the people who live in the Group home.
