  1. Reported on compact license?

    TIMFY replied to WarmCat's topic in Nurses Recovery

    I believe that is if you're licensed in another state, not just part of the compact. For example, if you're licensed in a compact state, but then also have a California license (not a compact state),...

  2. Reported on compact license?

    TIMFY replied to WarmCat's topic in Nurses Recovery

    Once you get disciplined, your license becomes a single state license (your home state). This may vary depending on your state and severity of discipline, but my license was suspended and then had...

  6. End of Monitoring

    TIMFY replied to TXStrong's topic in Nurses Recovery

    I think my case manager was more ready to leave than I was ? He emailed me a month before and told me what to expect and then the day before as well. The board then sent me a letter saying everything...

  8. Done with TPAPN! AMA

    TIMFY replied to TIMFY's topic in Nurses Recovery

    I would definitely not drink in the few days before the test if you can, but I'm really not sure if it would count against you. I would think it absolutely shouldn't, but I've read a few posts on here...

  9. Done with TPAPN! AMA

    TIMFY replied to TIMFY's topic in Nurses Recovery

    Are you able to log into spectrum360 yet? I believe there is a long list of evaluators on there under resources! If not, ask your case manager to send you a list. There is a slight chance you might...

  10. Does Benadryl cause positive for Affinity?

    TIMFY replied to Bkmw1989's topic in Nurses Recovery

    I bet its the Benadryl then! my test came back positive Christmas eve and that was the longest 2 days ever ? it finally changed to "prescription positive" the day after Christmas, which makes me think...

  11. Does Benadryl cause positive for Affinity?

    TIMFY replied to Bkmw1989's topic in Nurses Recovery

    Are your test results back yet? They'll say positive until your case manager verifies then they'll say prescription positive. I believe the case manager has to manually verify and change because if my...

  12. Advice needed on monitoring agreement

    TIMFY replied to Mama_nurse's topic in Nurses Recovery

    I'm not in Nevada but the employer quarterly reports are just like 5 yes or no questions like "does she show up to work", etc. I think by "private" they meant no public mark on your license but you...

  15. Affinity drug testing

    TIMFY replied to Kpp1234's topic in Nurses Recovery

    hmmm this kind of sounds like you don't have to tell them as long as you're still planning on checking in/testing? "travel affecting drug testing

  16. Affinity drug testing

    TIMFY replied to Kpp1234's topic in Nurses Recovery

    This is how my state is as well! Have you ever taken any "vacation" time? My testing schedule is fairly consistent, and I'm afraid if I took any vacation time, even just for a few days, I'd have to do...

  17. Alcohol etg - Saliva test

    TIMFY replied to Universe93B's topic in Nurses Recovery

    I would think they would probably supplement with PETH tests every few months (can detect alcohol use up to a month) if the saliva tests aren't as sensitive as the urine

  18. Alcohol etg - Saliva test

    TIMFY replied to Universe93B's topic in Nurses Recovery

    TIMFY replied to Leah2020's topic in Nurses Recovery

    So you tested positive for alcohol before starting IPN? Like during their intake testing? That should not count against you. I drank the night before I started since I knew I would be going without...

  21. Texas BON licensing question / MAT

    TIMFY replied to tossit1919's topic in Nurses Recovery

    I just don't know why they would pull the PMP? Or how because I believe only MDs and Pharmacists can access it. If you WERE in TPAPN then they might access it and care but if you're not, then I highly...

  22. Texas BON licensing question / MAT

    TIMFY replied to tossit1919's topic in Nurses Recovery

    I'm a little confused, who are you worried about finding out what meds you're on? The BON? They wouldn't know unless you had an incident at work and were reported to them. As long as you have a...

  25. Suboxone use and the Boards of Nursing

    TIMFY replied to imfree's topic in Nurses Recovery

    Suboxone can be used for pain management! Easier said than done, but try not to worry too much. The MRO might have concerns about you being a nurse on suboxone and that is OK. You're not doing...
