1. Part time jobs while in monitoring

   TrailRunnerRN replied to santi_05's topic in Recovery

   Hello, I have been working as a case manager/counselor in a detox facility since my license has been restricted. My company has been sensitive to my program needs and I am surrounded by people in recovery. They are holding a position for me when...

2. Case Manager Determined Prescription Positive

   TrailRunnerRN replied to Leigh784's topic in Recovery

   I take a prescription that metabolizes as a barbiturate. It always posts as "value out of range" first until the MRO reviews it. Then it becomes "prescription positive.”

3. MA SARP

   TrailRunnerRN replied to PsychRN67's topic in Recovery

   @Tyson SARP staff also called my place of employment to verify I was abiding by my contract before moving forward with my CA-3. This is a shift. Never in my almost 9 years has anyone from SARP called where I was working to check in on me, what I was ...

4. MA SARP

   TrailRunnerRN replied to PsychRN67's topic in Recovery

   Hello! I have been told I am the longest standing member in the MA-SARP program. God-willing, I should complete this program this May/June, having entered in 2014. I have had full privileges and I have started over, staying sober throughout. I'm...

5. SARP-unorganized and dysfunctional

   TrailRunnerRN replied to TenUp's topic in Recovery

   You can reach out to me! She can find me on Insta with the same name. Happy to help. I joined SARP in 2014… and I am still going. I feel your sister’s reality. Take care.

6. Alcohol etg - Saliva test

   TrailRunnerRN replied to Universe93B's topic in Recovery

   Hello, Universe93, Thanks for that article. I did see that one, but I was afraid to post it because I could not get beyond the abstract. I've never had luck with PubMed articles in all the research that I've had to do for my master's, unfortunat...

7. Alcohol etg - Saliva test

   TrailRunnerRN replied to Universe93B's topic in Recovery

   Hello, I have never been subject to a saliva test, so I did some research. I hope it helps! This is what I was able to find: Test & Time to clear detection: Saliva: 10 to 24 hours (no matter how much consumed) Blood: 12 oz bee...

8. Another dilute urine for IPN

   TrailRunnerRN replied to Quickstepper's topic in Recovery

   I agree with @TIMFY. Please go to the doctor and see if something is wrong. I can only speak from my own experience. I went through a year of dilute urine with no defense, hair and blood came back negative. Each dilute urine created a violation of my...

9. Mass. SARP - Dilute Result?

   TrailRunnerRN replied to wickedbiscuit's topic in Recovery

   Hello, I have a long relationship with MA-SARP. If this is your first your first dilute urine you should be okay. You will be "randomly" selected for a test on two separate days that you will not have the COC forms for. These will be hair and ...

10. THIN

    TrailRunnerRN replied to Gratefully2years's topic in Recovery

    Thank you for bringing this delicate subject matter to the forefront. I have used an example similar to this in discussions in my healthcare recovery group so many times. Why are we (the so-called lepers of the nursing world) any different than a nur...

12. Hand Sanitizer

    TrailRunnerRN replied to ConcordGrape77's topic in Recovery

    I just went through a little bit of hell with a positive urine r/t hand sanitizer. I had to be tested by PETH and Hair Follicle (both negative) to prove I hadn't fallen off the wagon. It was the most stressful week and a half! There is plenty of rese...

13. When does it end? I mean really end?

    TrailRunnerRN replied to catsmeow1972's topic in Recovery

    Hey, Cats, I could not agree with you more. I have had this conversation over and over and over again (mostly with myself). I have been a nurse for 9 years and probably have a total of three years of solid experience. I have been out of work more of...

14. Anyone in MA-SARP? Looking for contact info...

    TrailRunnerRN posted a topic in Recovery

    Hello, I am looking for contact information for the lawyer that is always at the SAREC and BON meetings (the young, personable guy). I had taken his card at one point, but cannot find it. If anyone is working with him, or knows someone who is, I woul...

15. When do you question the testing?

    TrailRunnerRN replied to TrailRunnerRN's topic in Recovery

    Thanks, Valerie! If this happens a few more times, I'll say something... I mean I know I asked for the alternative testing, but I'm going to look like my old Barbie doll soon. I knew I could count on you guys to help me through a challenging situati...
