  1. Only Crusty Old Bats will remember..

    Lisacar130 replied to Pepper The Cat's topic in General Nursing

    Hi Poppycat... I just noticed your PM now but it won't let me reply back to you as your message box is too full. Without giving details as what your message was about, yes there is one in Barrington...

  2. I Thought I Had My Dream Job, but My Past Took It Away...

    Lisacar130 replied to OrganizedChaos's topic in General Nursing

    What I am concerned about is if this is something they will report to the

  3. TPAPN Question

    Lisacar130 replied to mom35's topic in Nurses Recovery

    If you could withdraw without consequences, no one would be in any of these programs. I'm pretty sure the board would put a permanent mark on your license where you would then have a very difficult...

  4. WV restore/reported to BON

    Lisacar130 replied to Faceless927's topic in Nurses Recovery

    Yeah I agree with the above. Unless you only stepped out to vomit and immediately tried to return to test, this is going to be considered a refusal to test. Your history of ETOH adds another piece to...

  5. WV restore/reported to BON

    Lisacar130 replied to Faceless927's topic in Nurses Recovery

    After you ran out vomiting, what did you do? Did you go back in or call them? Did you just go home or what

  6. Negative UDS.. how on earth???

    Lisacar130 replied to StillRN's topic in Nurses Recovery

    I looked up how long it takes IV opiates before they show up in a drug screen. It said 2-6 hours. Although it should have showed up by then, maybe it just didn't yet? Or maybe it was starting to show...

  7. Caught diverting methadone.

    Lisacar130 replied to Nursemel05's topic in Nurses Recovery

    I don't know if you both are from the same state, but I know it depends on the state as far as self reporting. In Illinois, as long as you self report even 1 minute before being reported, the self...

  8. Bad messed up

    Lisacar130 replied to pcbeachbum's topic in Nurses Recovery

    Excuse me who are these people telling you to give up your license and/or trying to make you feel worse? They don't belong on this forum as they obviously are not in recovery and are not being helpful...

  9. nurse opioid addiction and state licensure

    Lisacar130 replied to krolsma's topic in Nurses Recovery

    In Illinois, the nurse practice act allows a facility to NOT report (many do report anyway though) only if the employee signs a last chance agreement with the employer and the employer agrees to...

  10. Caught diverting methadone.

    Lisacar130 replied to Nursemel05's topic in Nurses Recovery

    One more thing... I know here in Illinois you must self report before being reported (even if it's an hour before) in order to get a deal, so I would hurry up and ask a lawyer about self reporting as...

  11. Caught diverting methadone.

    Lisacar130 replied to Nursemel05's topic in Nurses Recovery

    It depends on your state. Here in Illinois when you self report you can wait over a year to be called for the hearing and all the while still work anywhere you want. In IL most of the contracts do...

  12. A penny for your thoughts

    Lisacar130 replied to taggart84's topic in Nurses Recovery

    Yes, I have seen this

  13. False Positives do exist.

    Lisacar130 replied to Kel65's topic in Nurses Recovery

    You mean false positive,

  14. Negative hair follicle test

    Lisacar130 replied to Kmrn27's topic in Nurses Recovery

    I looked at these briefly but hopefully some apply to you. The first one is expensive but is the longest and might be what I would do. The second one is also pretty good I think. Have your lawyer...

  15. Negative hair follicle test

    Lisacar130 replied to Kmrn27's topic in Nurses Recovery

    Ask the lawyer if you should get an assessment done by a psychiatrist to show you don't have an addiction problem. Also, I I brought old copies of my good job reviews to my hearing and that helped me....

  16. Finding work after termination?

    Lisacar130 replied to Corpsman2OncRN's topic in Nurses Recovery

    Most hospitals have a policy where they do not say a nurse was fired. They only confirm the dates of employment. I wouldn't even admit to being fired if it was me. I would say I left for some other...

  17. Negative hair follicle test

    Lisacar130 replied to Kmrn27's topic in Nurses Recovery

    I'm glad you passed everything. Did you make documentation errors? That could still get you in some trouble with the board. Definitely get a new job ASAP while your license doesn't have any mark on...

  18. tbon investigation letter

    Lisacar130 replied to Memalicious's topic in Nurses Recovery

    I would ask the lawyer about if a hair follicle test would help your situation. Unfortunately from what I've seen, the BON pretty much assumes guilt for those who refuse a drug test from their...

  19. Do employers ever drug test on the spot at interviews?

    Lisacar130 replied to Nursey916's topic in Nurses Recovery

    Honestly they would sound desperate to proceed with drug testing the same day of the interview, I haven't heard of it happening that fast but it's possible. It could look suspicious and could result...

  20. Do employers ever drug test on the spot at interviews?

    Lisacar130 replied to Nursey916's topic in Nurses Recovery

    OK sounds good. I would think you can refuse a drug test for any reason as long as you aren't an employee. I haven't heard of anyone getting in trouble in any way for not submitting a preemployment...

  21. Do employers ever drug test on the spot at interviews?

    Lisacar130 replied to Nursey916's topic in Nurses Recovery

    Please be more cautious about this. Even in a week, are you 100% sure you will be negative? I wouldn't chance it. If you are positive, they will report you to the board even if you never end up...

  22. Help what is regulation of drug screen???

    Lisacar130 replied to jfox01's topic in Nurses Recovery

    I think you should make a new thread with your state of Florida in the title (in the recovery forum) to get more replies from nurses in your

  23. Help what is regulation of drug screen???

    Lisacar130 replied to jfox01's topic in Nurses Recovery

    Well, it comes out to about $333 a month if it's $20 K for 5 years. I recommend posting again with whatever state you live in for better advice from nurses in your state. This IPN program sounds like...

  24. Help what is regulation of drug screen???

    Lisacar130 replied to jfox01's topic in Nurses Recovery

    I still stand by my advise as I believe what will happen is your employer will then fire and report you to the BON, and the BON will make you do the same things (drug tests, weekly NA meetings) and...
