In Washington you will need to appear in court. You should get a lawyer to try to keep this off your record.

What can I do if today, I was caught with a $10 umbrella from a store?

Well, they took your information and will probably put you into a national database of thieves. That means that other stores can see that you are supposedly a thief. You might lose your job over this, but I cannot see the future, I can only make a guess. I do not think that it will hurt you regarding getting into nursing school. In addition, it probably will not hurt you in terms of getting a license as a nurse, but you should check with the board of nursing in FL to see what the exclusions to licensure are. There was no arrest, so there will not be a criminal record in the court or justice system.

You might be able to get a new hearing, but the driver's license division wouldn't be required to give one. It's a long shot, but it might be worth a try.
