  1. CA RN probation drug testing blood?

    PaddedCellLPN replied to sdecoste82's topic in Nurses Recovery

  3. +PEth in WHPS? with a job?

    PaddedCellLPN replied to birdo98's topic in Nurses Recovery

    Wow. I had a relapse and was scared to death, for good reason. Got my head on right, started AA (alcohol isn't my DOC, but I couldn't drink right now and just stop), and told on myself. Did it work...

    PaddedCellLPN replied to Nursebae2024's topic in Nurses Recovery

    PaddedCellLPN replied to Nursebae2024's topic in Nurses Recovery

    7 months for me. I'm in the GNAPAP, and I called and left a message, and my new case worker called back a few hours later to do a phone interview. That was 12/7, and I was fully accepted to the...

  6. OIG list

    PaddedCellLPN replied to Itotias's topic in Nurses Recovery

    1) This is for clarity, not being a jerk... is this where the private schools were paid for false transcripts to allow someone to sit for NCLEX? Not accusing you, just for clarity. 2) The OIG...

    PaddedCellLPN replied to ADN244's topic in Nurses Recovery

  8. Unknown restrictions ,not possible to find a nursing job,even non drug dispensing..

    PaddedCellLPN replied to Blinkyvx's topic in Nurses Recovery

    I got a job while waiting for the BON in corrections. I had 10 years experience (I should've never left), so I worked the infirmary and my pill nurse gave my narcs and held the keys. Once my...

  9. Affinity Testing Process

    PaddedCellLPN replied to Smit5292's topic in Nurses Recovery

    I go during lunch. My manager is super cool and covers my patients. I'm in GA, and my program will tell you work isn't an excuse to miss a test. Make sure your manager knows when you've got to test,...

  10. Urine testing

    PaddedCellLPN replied to Scarlet70's topic in Nurses Recovery

  11. Zyrtec

    PaddedCellLPN replied to Smit5292's topic in Nurses Recovery

    PaddedCellLPN replied to Nursebae2024's topic in Nurses Recovery

  13. Aftercare group in Georgia

    PaddedCellLPN replied to Nursebae2024's topic in Nurses Recovery

    I'm in the GNAPAP program. It isn't what I want to deal with every day, but isn't as horrible as some of the programs I've seen mentioned

  14. Drug testing

    PaddedCellLPN replied to Kenzie's topic in Nurses Recovery

    Well, how I was told... nails and hair strand tests take 7-10 days to show use. (Not saying it's accurate), and they can actually have false negatives since there is less blood flow to the area,...

  15. Cyclical Vomiting Syndrome?

    PaddedCellLPN replied to arlingtonnurse's topic in School

    As an adult with CVS, it's horrible. The only combo that has ever worked (thank god) is propranolol and cyproheptadine, both TID. When I feel an actual episode coming on, I take Marinol, but that's a...

  16. Invalid lab?!?

    PaddedCellLPN posted a topic in Nurses Recovery

    Hey guys! I received a notification from Spectrum that my UDS from 1/7 was invalid. No one called me, just sent the prompt to contact my case manager (which I did the same day on the 22nd). They...

  17. Invalid lab?!?

    PaddedCellLPN replied to PaddedCellLPN's topic in Nurses Recovery

    Idek what happened, I haven't done anything, so IDK what happened with the lab side of it. 🤷‍♀️. My hair will show I've been good, so other than being upset about the lack of communication,...

  18. Invalid lab?!?

    PaddedCellLPN replied to PaddedCellLPN's topic in Nurses Recovery

    That's my major issue with the whole thing. The app let me know 2 weeks later by a random alert, but the rules are basically an immediate retest. So, them being lazy is going to cost me big probably...

    PaddedCellLPN replied to PaddedCellLPN's topic in Nurses Recovery

    GA. I'm required to have hair tests every three months, it's always done a month before the quarterly paperwork is done. Been doing it for a

    PaddedCellLPN replied to PaddedCellLPN's topic in Nurses Recovery

    I get hair tests every 3 months, so no big deal. 🤷‍♀️. Same old, same old. It's always the month before the quarterly reports. That's never a suprise. My case manager told me next month...

  23. Stipulations

    PaddedCellLPN replied to Attorney's topic in Nurses Recovery

    My state (GA) has it on our license, and releases the info in BON meeting

  24. Stipulations

    PaddedCellLPN replied to Attorney's topic in Nurses Recovery

    What's your point? There's a lot of people on monitoring in every state, and it's usually public record. Your employer shouldn't tell anyone if someone is on Probation or
