Diverting narcotics

what type of drug diversion will disqualify you for CANDO. Once you are in CANDO can you be kicked out the program due to further investigations and new findings from your past employer regarding the different ways you were diverting narcotics for your own use?

Thank you guys

Im not in cando, but in Tx they treat you the same if it is one time or one thousand times. As far as finding other stuff, try not to dwell on that. Nurses I have talked to and myself didnt reveal all of our deeds, the fact that the train has stopped and you can get off that hellish ride and begin a new life is where you are. Put one foot in front of the other and hold your head up. Its gonna be bumpy. But it will be ok!

I am in CANDO. I was told that as long as it happened before you signed your contract you are ok. If it happens after all bets are off. So it's not when they are found but when they occurred. Now if there is law enforcement situation idk about that. Hope that clears it up.

In my state, nurses who diverted narcotics for personal use were eligible for the program; those who were found to be diverting in order to sell were not eligible.

As far as finding out about other investigations, etc, it's up to you how much you want to rely on luck--that is, if you are currently being investigated for activities the program didn't previously know about, it is likely that they will be unhappy if they initially hear about it from anyone other than you. Honesty is highly valued in recovery, as I'm sure you're aware, and any attempts to hide investigations/legal actions/complaints against you will reflect badly on you and will probably compromise your ability to continue with CANDO. But, as I said, that's up to you.
