  1. YES BUT MY DIAGNOSIS IS NOT WHATS VOLUNTARY INFORMATION TO THE PUBLIC. CFR 42 Part 2 Strictly forbids the use of a diagnosis to punish you in your profession for having a SUD. Which is what the BON does and now illegal. I was told no I mean HIPPA, I said no I mean CFR 42 Part 2 passed on 8-14-2020. That prevents you from sharing my diagnosis with the public from using in a court against me, for anything other than kidnapping, rape or murder. Which I'm not being accused of. Go look at Tennessee, Oregon or Kentuckys discipline list it does not list any charges. It lists there name and a number, not even sure it's there license number. They said In Michigan they follow the FOIA Request which is false they post the minutes from the meetings to the website which go to the search engines. Which then are searchable by your name. So googling my name you can find false allegations with an inaccurate diagnosis that has cost me, my career, my home, and my family.
  2. All were required in the first 90 days. I can say I enrolled in March and end or middle of June was my first peth. I do not drink alcohol. I had a drink In July of 2019 in was 2020. It was two urines per week, I got a hair test pretty early, but since I was in covid things were so messed up. There were a lot of new places, nothing was open, and I was fired from my job, and since I was sheltering I was excused from drug testing until we were released. But you have to watch these people when they take your specimens too. I had a place actually take me from my sample. Saying it was to warm. Put me into another room. Then never allowed me to watch them dispose of it. They wouldn't let me watch them seal it into the fed ex shipping. They argued with me threatening the police on me, and I had to report it to the lab. The manager came out acted like I was being unreasonable when it was why I was in the program. I trusted the wrong person. I went in front of the administration judge and the drug test was thrown out I was sent back to the board for proper punishment. They still want an eval from this HPRP.. I will have zero to do with HPRP EVER AGAIN.. I am clean sober.. but I won't give my money or time to HPRP. I Am actively looking for a recent consent would you be willing to share
  3. Yes. GOOD LUCK you need 2 criteria to be diagnosed with a SUD. Then this program is all About stealing your money.. for no less than 3 years. And more. It's bull and the moment you can't pay say goodbye yo your license. BUT I SUGGEST YOU READ UP ON CFR 42 Part 2..
  4. CFR 42 Part 2 was updated on 8-14-2020, this made substance abuse records even more confidential than the placement of nuclear weapons. The entire purpose of the update was due to the opioid epidemic and the increase in the number of suboxone users, and in order to get suboxone you must have a substance use disorder (sud) which has replaced opioid use disorder (oud). The entire purpose of the update of the law was to protect your employment! Due to the fact your EMPLOYER pays for your HEALTHCARE. They are doing this to PROTECT YOU? Makes sense right. I would hope there is some logic behind the things SAMSHA does. It's actually criminal to violate this law. It's federal so how it goes is which ever law is the higher degree outweighs the other. As Health care professionals we have safeguarded thousands if not millions collectively. So please explain to me, why is it as a Health care professional when we have been diagnosed with a SUD that we do NOT get the same benefit? Well as long as we comply with the recovery program that's privately paid for? Incorrect these programs are ABSOLUTELY REQUIRED TO FOLLOW THIS LAW! ITS TIME TO ACT ALL NURSES ACT FIGHT BACK FOR OUR RIGHTS Laura
  5. GOOD morning! Hi everyone! I THOUGHT I would SHARE a GLIMMER OF HOPE! I WANT EVERYONE OF YOU! TO keep going everyday with faith and hope it’s worth it. I fought in my hearing for my TRUTH. The JUDGE heard me and my evidence. I was cleared of being found HIGH at work negligence and incompetent. That’s HUGE. They still said I was not of good moral character Because I got an OWI, I possessed a medication that was not mine, which was due to the invalid drug test it got me cut off a prescribed medication. NO EXCUSE. But it’s the TRUTH. I did not deny I possessed it. She felt I was not all forthcoming, but there was another reason for that as it was not all figured out yet. But I am been put back to the board for appropriate reprimand. Considering my license has been suspended now for almost 2 years. I can show proof of treatment too. I WILL NEVER DO HPRP. I am TALKING TO THE JUDGE ABOUT THE ABUSE AT HPRP LADIES AND GENTS. I may be completely eligible to have full licensure. THE JUDGE also comments on the poor handling of my case by my job, and union. The other RN not being reprimanded for inappropriately handling a urine specimen and not allowing my second observed test into evidence! STAY STRONG LADIES AND GENTS!
  6. So chances are if you are selected it won’t be for a special test which is a peth test. Alcohol- shows in this test for several weeks. It’s not exactly a proven test. Neither is an ETG. but nonetheless. if you are selected for a PETH test which is a blood draw- then take the test. Make a report to your case worker. Of your last consumption was prior to signing. Most likely this is NOT going to happen. You will get the most expensive urine test first. If you are working. But honestly I wish you all the luck in the world. This program is BS. It’s so expensive and they DO NOT CARE ABOUT your recovery. They want your money. Do not drink- 4 weeks they get a positive you will do a PETH and URINE weekly. IT SO EXPENSIVE. I had a family event and I DO NOT DRINK. but in this instance not to drink the wine was considered rude (Italian) and my family did not want me drawing attention to my “problem” so I drank 1 glass. Openly admitted it and was punished severely. I don’t think they understand people outside of this program don’t get it. Ya I probably could have left, but I’m not embarrassing my family if I didn’t have too. Drawing attention to myself. If your not pregnant which people knew my “issues” there too. So not like I could have played it off. Your expected to have the wine. I did not hide it. I had them use being tapered off medication as a bad thing even after my psychiatrist stated it’s a requirement for the med. yes they will have your psychiatrist testify AGAINST YOU. Which was fun, because he never talked to me about substance abuse in the time I saw him. Only PTSD. never one time did he ask nor my social worker, nor my case worker how I was managing. As two of my very good friends are Peer support specialists they said it’s not a treatment program if your not openly talking about your using. I was kicked out of group therapy for not picking a drug of choice. I was told to just pick one. I refused. The RN who did a reasonable suspicion drug test at work “forgot my signature” and left it on the counter with 10 other bagged urines. My probation drug test the same day that was observed came back negative. With a therapeutic value for benzodiazepines. The work one came back with 3 substances. I was asked to sign for the test 8 days later, by this RN. He backdated it. I still have my donor copy. I suggest you learn your rights for drug testing. As some of these places you can test at violate your rights. One tried to remove me from my sample. It is to be in your sight until it is sealed in the BOX and BAG. Then you know it’s not tampered with. I reported this RN to LARA. They did nothing, I have lost my license for personal life mistakes. Not one patient related issue. I’m extremely competent. Well educated with a Bachelors from Purdue. not even a patient complaint in my career, never a patient had asked for a switch in caregivers. Yet this RN has zero integrity and did not have to answer for ruining my career. He still works at the VA racking up a pension, TSP, 5 weeks vacation and 4 hours of SL per pay. Not to mention the best health dental and Vision options. Not to mention the many other perks of being a government employee. I’ve never even been written up. Been in trouble in my life. But had 17ng of marijuana in my system and got pulled over and got an OWI. Such ***. I told HPRP to go to hell after 8 months. It was the pandemic and I could not get a job. My mother was going bankrupt from the testing bills. The stress was unbearable. I miss being a nurse. But in no way in hell was I going to be able to do 3 years+ because they just kept starting the clock over when I could not pay for something. With no job which I got hired anywhere as long as I did not mention HPRP. This program is violating the privacy laws and IM GOING AFTER THE license board, district attorney and state board of nursing. No way in hell should our health info be on the internet! CFR 42 part 2. There consent is BOGUS and the law updated 8-14-2020
  7. Nobody should drive if they are impaired, but the point was she took her PRESCRIBED MEDICATION. WHICH MAKES IT LEGAL in all 50 states. YOU have never worked and then sat down and just realized how tired you really were? HIPPA still stands it wasn’t abolished.
  8. Wow JUDGEMENT ITS HER RIGHT AND HER PRESCRIPTION. Do you know what happens when she doesn’t take it? Wow. Her falling asleep and Adderall have nothing to do with one another. Wow! Perhaps you should not be a nurse. Or go back to school. Read the Bible, go cleanse or heal your judgment issues. The kid is OK. She was working not a bar. Took her medication that she has to take to function so you have ADHD? I do. I am not on a stimulant at this time, by my choice. I struggle to do what most can do in a few hours. Perhaps support her. Look at the disease process and understand- she also was cleared of charges. Do you understand the law either? I’m serious like totally.
  9. I get it.. but a cops job is to serve and protect. So as nurses when patients come in drunk and hurt should we say let’s not treat them? It’s the same thing. Being DRUNK OR INTOXICATED IS SET BY THE DOT. Department of transportation. If you pass their drug test and can pass a breathalyzer. You legally do not fit the terms of intoxication under the law. I am happy to provide proof. Please I urge you to read your laws and ADVOCATES FOR YOUR NURSES. As you would any patient. BecauE this poor nurse is going thru I’m sure she would rather die. She’s going to get fired lose her license be forced into a recovery program and fight for her child all from probably BEING MANDATED TO WORK. It’s NOT. DUI. WHAT ARE YOU UNDER THE INFLUENCE OF? No substance or alcohol. They compare it to such but STOP JUSTIFYING IT SO THIS HAPPENS. It’s called EXHAUSTION. BEING A HUMAN. Nobody is perfect. I’m sure you have had your kids in the car a time or two you wish you had not. I’m not pointing fingers just let’s not call the kettle black. We MAKE MISTAKES. Our personal Lives have ZERO TO DO WITH PRACTICE. Guess what she’s going to Be labeled as a child abuser and with an SUD and it be SPLASHED ON THE INTERNET FOREVER. How do you feel about that?? Why is that the publics right to know her health diagnosis! Ever for any of us!
  10. Hi Brad, It’s a human mistake! MAKE SURE YOI REPORT TO THE BOARD WITHIN 30 days. If it’s substance abuse related you must do your recovery program in your state. I’m so sorry. Do not wait- it looks bad and CALL AN ATTORNEY TO BE PRESENT during it all. I don’t know what your background is, but an extended care facility really needs humans. Not that they do not care- but they are more lenient. Some case manager positions are doing Covid positions from home(remote). I literally get these every day. I can connect with you and give you the site. It’s remote so anywhere US is welcome. Credentials and experience are required. Apparently mine are garbage now. So I’m just a waste of space. But I have every resource for you nurses! I don’t know if you can message on here! [email protected]
  11. They have not one complaint from a patient or on my practice of nursing I. 13 years. But on my personal life a DUI which I faced a judge for already completed probation successfully-that’s what a good citizen does. I’m a human I make mistakes- I had marijuana In system 3 months before it was “legal” 17 ng/ml at that and 33 ng/ml cooh so hit the DOT essay on the head! 1 billionionth of a gram less they might not have even charged me. I was on prescribed Xanax for losing 5 babies and going thru a divorce in counseling for 18 months. I don’t even want to go into the terror I was living in with my exhusband. But they used this against me to justify reasonable suspicion testing. But never gave me the complaints prior to testing so the handwritten back dated complaints were made to “fit” cooperative drowsy and not making eye contact, talking fast. I was talking fast because I was drinking coffee, and the Xanax might have made me the other 3? I can’t make this *** up. I just am ready to let this go- but I want nobody to have to go thru this ever again- it’s Wrong. This nurse “forgot my signature” YOU *** you stalked me 8 days later lied to me and they already had my results! One of the HR forms they forgot to change the dates. I tell Nurses make the BEST investigators. Don’t tell me to find errors- we are required more evidence to put an IV in a human than to put some one in jail. It’s amazing! I have had a crash course In attorney! Most are incompetent and I bring more to the table than they would ever think too. I was thrown into jail for contempt for pointing out facts in a case. The judge apparently didn’t like it- I did 10 days I am not proud of but I am- I’ve been places I would have never been had it not been for this “mistake” The nurse who took the life of the patient die far LESS damage then this RN has done to me!
  12. Oh no! Ya’ll I had got put in just before Covid! So this was a NIGHTMARE! You have no idea. I also was negative for drugs in admission- another RN failed to have integrity. Backdated a the drug test CCF and used out friendship to his advantage. That drug test came back positive, I was on probation and had been selected for random observation testing the same day THANKFULLY. (For myself doesn’t seem to matter to anyone else) I could not get these results until March because my officer was pregnant and with Covid she was not around anyone. So the would not release them- what are the freakin odds- I subsequently lost my job after being told HPRP would save it. Then of course no job and I was repeatedly kicked backwards 90 days for missing testing due to inability to pay not for unwilling to participate. HPRP does not care about recovery but about padding their pockets. I am in the administration hearing NOW. YES! THEY HAVE SCREWED MY CASE SO BADLY. I am TRYIN To PAVE A ROAD FOR EVERY NURSE RIGHT NOW. They have placed on the internet My SUD. This is a violation of CFR 42 part 2. No they are not a federal payer but they must follow the law in that the forms must be updated with the consent of who it’s being released too. Please see SAMSHA. The admin judge and ADA HAVE PUT IN WRITING THE PUBLIC HEALTH CODE IS MORE IMPORTANT THAN A FEDERAL LAW UPDATED AFTER I SIGNED THESE ! which the law states previous signed releases are appealed. That am SUD IS TO Be Discussed only in a judges chambers with those who have written consent. I have provided nobody in this hearing consent . Not the ADA NOT The judge not anyone who has testified. They are trying to have my psychiatrist testify against me. What! OBJECTION! PRIVILEGED! I am ALL ON MY OWN here guys no attorney no support! Just me! So PRAY! Cuz everyone of you I think of when I’m doing this. My family won’t speak to me- I can’t get a job- my rights have been violated and so will yours- Google does not have my consent. In fact no consent exists according to the law- I went to catholic charities today and they were standing there with their mouths open in disbelief. The form I signed today said exactly what I’m saying to you on it! The HPRP forms I signed in 2020 DO NOT. The forms are now only good for 1 year not 4.
  13. STICK WITH YOUR ATTORNEY!
  14. Depends. Procedure is 30 days go to state website and look at licensing board procedures. Usually you meet with an ADA and a board person first. I caution you to self report to whatever your recovery program is in your state. They are OUTRAGEOUS. Require years of monitoring. get an attorney now, and move to get the positive test thrown out!
  15. Who is aware that HIPPA was updated on 8-14-2020? That your SUD can’t be used against you in a criminal or Administrative hearing. Your state board of nursing license is an administrative hearing. If the sole basis of there case is this- they have no right to be USING THIS AGAINST YOUR LICENSE! Also I am going thru this right now with zero HELP. They need a court order to obtain your records in which your would have had to commit a CRIMINAL OFFENSE! Alaskas ACLU is fighting the board on posting their information on the internet now! I need all the support I can get ladies and gents! This has destroyed my life. the RN who performed my original drug test “forgot my signature” that’s his testimony! Yet the DOT has a procedure for this- I had a second test performed that day OBSERVED! Showing different results. Which I knew I had to take at 5am I had to report too! This is TOTAL ***! the Assistant district attorney has lied so many times in the first hearing even the damn investigator for the state. I have presented the FEDERAL law MORE than once and they keep going back to a public health code, and documents signed before 8-14-2020. These idiots won’t accept defeat- I have never been in any trouble at my job. Never even been written up. I have safe guarded thousands of patients information- yet MINE is posted to the internet and can be found on EVERY SEARCH ENGINE KNOWN TO MAN? I HAVE THE RIGHT TO BE A PATIENT. I HAVE THE RIGHT TO PRIVACY. MY family wants nothing to do with me, and I have no support. I am about to lose everything. The office of civil rights said this is not discrimination either yet the national institute of mental health clearly defines a substance use disorder as a mental health disease. So if you have nothing to use from my practice and solely using a mental health disease to prosecute me on, then what would you call it? Would I not be protected under this law? I am so tired of being a person who does the right thing, yet gets screwed over when it’s their turn to use the same laws. The ADA wants to bring my psychiatrist in to testify against me! Are you joking me? This is so illegal I want to scream! I have petitioned everyone I can think of! If anyone has a resource please help me. Michigan can’t win this is just wrong- I have never witnessed such an injustice. The purpose was to not seek prosecution for getting help from your job for getting help. Yet the office of civil rights oversees this and theirs no problem! WOW!! Federal law supersedes public health code ANY DAY! please anyone Laura
