I have not and I've been in monitoring for about a year and a half. But I still freak out over it regularly. I just started a job and my new worry is the alcohol based hand sanitizer but I get tested after a night of working and it was fine. I don't ...

I've been asking at my nursing support group and have also been getting mixed responses. I think I will try my best to used good old soap and water, and if that is not always possible then look into an alcohol free foam. Thanks to all who responded.

So the second offer was rescinded already. Once the nurse manager contacted IPN, they stated they overlooked the narcotic restriction in my contract, which I had previously sent them. So as long as I pass the background check for the first offer I'm ...

I'm in the same boat, have had numerous offers rescinded due to either supervision issues or unable to honor the narcotic restriction. I think I'm up to five offers taken back at this point. I still have one pending so fingers crossed. But I thought ...

I quit HAVEN, the monitoring program in Connecticut back in 2011. Decided it was a mistake in 2013 and it took me until 2017 to get my license active again. I would stick with it if you can but I totally get the urge to run but it's such a pain if yo...

For those who are also wondering this particular plasma donation center company is actually seeking out nurses in a recovery program, but I am still unsure about supervision. The center director is going to be contacting the monitoring program to see...
Hello all! I have been in a monitoring program for 1 1/2 years of a 5 year contract. I have been told dialysis is the way to go but have interviewed at multiple Davita centers and have been shot down due to only one RN on staff in center and my cont...
