They will force you into a monitoring program. But, if you stay negative within that 90 day evaluation you have a good chance of getting out without any further monitoring. Good luck. You have to be negative in all tests they give you within that 90 ...

Same here. I was an excellent nurse dedicated to my profession for 20 years. I could afford the expenses. But, I refuse to be treated so unjustly and unfairly from an institution which is not even run by nurses. There is zero empathy and its all abou...
