The evaluator does not make the final decision. Someone else here posted that their evaluator suggested therapy and they got a 3 year monitoring agreement. If I has to guess I'd say you're getting a...
What state are you in? More time for pregnancy even though you're still testing? That's crazy. I was reported to the state monitoring program not the board. I would never self report.
Do you...

In my state if you're reported you do the time. There's not an option to do alternative to discipline or monitoring agreement. If you were charged with a crime that shows forever, if you weren't...

I'd choose the option where this isn't forever a black mark on your license
In my state we don't have to choose. The exrea 2 years is awful but at least it won't follow you
What an idiot to go to work wasted. I think this is an absurd way to try to protect patients. People who shouldn't be reported are, people who shouldn't be reported aren't and tons of people don't...
Yes it matters. For HPRP they don't accept evaluators that don't work with them. Ask your lawyer for suggestions on who to choose.
For an initial interview they give you about 3 to choose from...
I know several people who work in health care in New York because they use marijuana for pain. They were never tested for it, one is a physician and 2 are nurses and they are spread out all over New...
I'd definitely ask a lawyer who to pick for the next evaluation. You're absolutely correct, it's not fair. You don't need AA. it's really the easiest part. Log onto zoom and cook, Those are free and...
There was someone who only got one month for a drinking and driving incident and he or she was from Michigan. They posted somewhere here. Maybe find thr post and message
It's possible that because your evaluator suggested therapy they said 3x a week. Their therapists psychiatrists and addiction doctors are all independent contractors in my experience they are all...
3 years is insane. I don't have a sud, no legal issues yet here I am. I'm not the only one. AA zoom is the easiest part of it. It all depends on how much your license means to you. If I could...
An independent evaluation can decrease time, no guarantee. I think you're mistaken about the therapy. The case managers aren't too bright.
I don't see them giving you no monitoring agreement...
I'm doing a 3 year monitoring agreement and I didn't have any legal charges and don't have a sud. I just surrendered. I would contact a lawyer to see who they recommend for an independent evaluation....
I'd try to figure out a plan to test on days when you work 12 hour shifts like finding a site where you can test before or after work. Maybe even during work on a break if you can test where you work....
You go before or after work. You must test if selected. A missed test is considered a positive test.. There are 24 hour sites in my area. They aren't close. Monitoring is
It really depends. It's definitely good they suggested no monitoring agreement. If they come back and say you need one I'd get an independent evaluation which has to be one of theirs. It would at...

Someone in my monitoring program was forgiven for a positive Alcohol test due to mouthwash. So the powers that be think it's legitimate. Someone else had a false positive and doesn't know why.
