  1. So today I had me a not so pretty panic attack at work....I had a patient cuss me out for doing nothing more than trying to check on him because I was concerned about him having low blood sugar. It was not my first rodeo with this patient. He has bee...

  4. What do you say?

    So what do you tell your coworkers when you have to leave the floor to take a drug test? I have to go to an offsite facility and sometimes I’m gone for up to an hour and a half. I’m running out of excuses. My managers know and understand but it’s my ...
  5. So what does everyone use. Tried a certain brand. Feels more like bleach. Not loving it. Obviously doing the hand washing thing but working in a hospital we are not always near a sink and feel the need for hand sanitizing ... whats everyone’s choice ...
  6. Living while in TPAPN

    Hey all, husband and I have been going to the same concert for the last 20 years every summer. There tends to be a lot of pot smoking at the shows it’s just part of it. I’m just going for the music!! It’s a band we love dearly and it’s always been “...
  7. Allergies on TPAPN

    Sounds silly but Ive been scared to death to take anything but Motrin since this whole process started but I’m ready to rip my nose off my face with these south Texas allergies .... I know the TPAPN guidelines say Claritin and Zyrtec are usually safe...
  8. I worked until I had the contract in front of me and it stated I am not to work under my license until cleared by TPAPN. So I was able to work from Dec 5th until Jan 14th because that is how long the process took. Again, I did not self report. I cou...
  9. What defines inpatient treatment

    I was given the option to do either IOP or weekly therapy sessions with addiction specialist. I chose the later. I’m in a small area and I only had one facility to choose from. the IOP was not something I felt I needed. Plus after my initial meeting ...
  10. I’m sorry for what you are going through. I was terminated in Dec for very same thing ... you are not alone at all. It was a dark first few days but I prayed a lot and found this group and it saw me through the start of the process. Now I’m in Tx so...

    Hi all, I'm need of some guidance, advice, opinions, prayer ... whatever you can throw my way. Recently terminated for a failed drug screen without disclosure of my poor judgment of using recreational MJ. I was told by my employer that I would be ref...
  12. To TPAPN or not...

    Just checking back in...I started my TPAPN contract officially Jan 15th. It’s been a ride for sure ... I recvd the clear to apply for a job 2 weeks ago... i was able to choose weekly counseling sessions with a drug therapist instead of the IOP. (Than...
  13. Well...I was fired and referred to TPAPN for MJ use without disclosure. It was my second failure after a bad bad decision to use over a weeks period (foolishly thinking its not enough to stay in my system) after referral, I completed my initial drug ...
  14. To TPAPN or not...

    I finally received my letter so I called and spoke with my case manager. He seemed helpful and explained the process. Which is exactly as everyone has explained. Looks like I will pay out of pocket for the evaluation because the only two providers th...
  15. To TPAPN or not...

    I don't know what I'd be doing right now with out all the support and advice. I'm hopeful. I'm still waiting for my referral letter from TPAPN but I've been doing agency in the mean time. I'm hoping I can get a couple more shifts in before all this h...
  16. To TPAPN or not...

    I do find some comfort knowing what's in front of me. The scariest part was the unknown. But I love being a nurse. Gonna fight this battle. Glad I found a place to ask my questions and voice my thoughts. It truly does help. I hope I can return the fa...

    I know from my former manager I was referred, so now, I at least know to be expecting the contact from them ... uhhh what is the Lord trying to teach me on this one?? ... well, besides the whole you shouldn't have been doing that :/ Another question...
