If you fail a pre-employment drug screen for THC in NJ, what happens? I havent used in over a month and dont intend on using during my career.....I smoked for about a year while in nursing school -- caught up with the wrong people -- stupid mistake that is really coming back to bite me in the ass and threaten all that i have worked for. I passed 2 at home tests before, and just found out today that I failed the labcorp test. What do i do!?!? Please help...

We cannot offer legal advice. If you have individual liability/malpractice insurance contact your carrier. You can also contact http://www.taana.org The American Association of Nurse Attorneys as they have a referral service. TAANA | Attorney Referral

Positive drug screens are reportable to the board of nursing and/or the alternative to discipline board. (in NJ the organization is called RAMP). You can also self-report if you want. NJ State Nurses Association: RAMP
