legal question re state BON

Nurses General Nursing

Published

Any and all input will be appreciated. To put this question in a nutshell, I am a GN wondering whether or not a failed preemployment drug test is reportable to the BON, & if so, is this grounds for revocation of my TPP. I have never practiced under my TPP, ergo I would think that this wouldn't fall under the impaired nurse law.

Thank you for your input.

based upon employers policies along with state board of nursing regs, they are only ones who can accurately answer this question. having a temporary practice permit must follow laws within your state in order to get license that includes no active narcotic/psych drug use unless under physician orders.
