Does anyone know if Davita does random drug screenings?? No judgement please. This is not a clinic/ hands on nursing job.

I know that I would be required to pass a pre employment test but I am not sure if they actually perform randoms (without cause). There policy says that they could I am just wondering if they actually do. There is a plant that greatly helps my pms so I don't want to take a job if it will be an issue down the road. Of course this is only used outside of work.

I had recently had surgery before my drug test (2weeks) and in spite of the Tramadol I still passed their drug test

You are only drug tested when you appear intoxicated or under the influence when you are at work

Most companies reserve the right to test. I have only seen it done once and that was for a teammate who was behaving very strangely on multiple shifts

Tramadol would not show up in a drug test anyway just FYI. Former UDS collector :)

What kind of drug testing did they perform? Is it a urine test or hair follicle drug test?

Most companies conduct a pre-employment drug test. After that, it's only upon some large medical error or poor judgement.
