A nurse in our department got her NP and came back to work in that role. Our ER is staffed by a contracted company.
The hospital went gung house with random drug testing a couple of years ago. When I questioned this gal she informed me that she did not have a pre-employment drug screening when she came back to the same hospital and department in a new role.
I find this to be a slap in the face to the nurses, CNAs, unit clerks, RTs, and housekeepers who are all subject to a surprise demand for urine. Meanwhile those with an undeniable power to make life and death decisions are not held accountable in the same manner.
