I might use this service as a back up... But now I log in and save the confirmation to my computer.

Just a little FYI. Some recovery programs frown on the use of these check in companies.

I know when I check in my IPS address and/or phone number is recorded and logged. They do have the power to block IPS/Numbers from their system.

But in all honest. Do you really want to risk being held non complaint due to a missed check in because something happened with the company and they missed your check in?

This topic reminds me of another nurse recovery site that I moderate. We once had someone pretending to be a monitored nurse who posted about how great one of these companies was. They were a shill for the company.

They posted about how they "forgot" to check multiple times and how this system saved them from getting in more trouble. I said to them that if they "forgot" that many times maybe they weren't serious about complying with their contract. I thought it was sleazy that they faked a post like that.

I agree with other responders who say they wouldn't trust their license to a third party. :no:

She's just asking a freaking question. Wow. Belly laugh? Really? Reminds me of why I hate so many nurses and the environment they breed. Don't be *******

What about an alarm on your phone? That way you would still be in compliance but have a backup plan in place too...

Laughing at ourselves is always the best. On man, my first days in sobriety were hilarious. Even the worst moments (looking outside for the cops all the time)- not funny then, absolutely hilarious now. You know...because I was high priority.
