I did not have to take Suboxone. From what I've heard from the other nurses and medical personnel that I've talk to I believe they really push Suboxone. And I know that it has to be witnessed with you taking it. As far as getting back to work, HPMP, after 3 to 4 months, gave me permission to start looking. They had the ultimate say so over my ability to take a job or not. And they will talk to your new boss when you take a job and discuss with them what your role is and what's involved with doing it. HPMP denied me twice for taking a job-once before because I was working from home, and no one was going to be there to watch me. The second was because it involve my visiting patients in their home to do an assessment for a half an hour to an hour and leaving to come back home to document. That is when I had enough. The Virginia board of nursing had already closed my case a few months before this because they couldn't find that I did anything wrong which is what I kept telling them all along. So finally, when HPMP stopped me from taking the second job, I got a lawyer and wrote a letter to the head of the Board Of Nursing, and to my lawyer, explaining everything and I was finally cleared and got my full license back. No issues whatsoever. Nothing at all on my license. Thank God because I really needed a job! Job!

I totally feel the same way! I’m not working and these drug tests are adding up!

I’ve talked to people in my Caduseus group that have finished HPMP. They stated that they voluntarily kept in HPMP to keep getting monitored! I guess I understand now!

Can you tell me if Virginia HPMP let up on the drug testing amounts per month? Out of work and these tests are killing my credit card!
