    Employer Falsify Events?

    PsychRNXXX posted a topic in Nurses Recovery

    Rant here for a min... had to edit some of this in order to publish. Let's see how short and non-specific I can be. I've applied to over 19 nursing jobs first of all. And I've had issues at the 3...

    PsychRNXXX replied to Universe93B's topic in Nurses Recovery

    Hm. Well I only have to report if I'm taking the sinus things for example. Benadryl, Sudafed and cough syrup with dextro in it or Mucinex. I just have to tell my case manager I'm taking it. And if I...

    Employer Falsify Events?

    PsychRNXXX replied to PsychRNXXX's topic in Nurses Recovery

    Regionally? I have to apply in my state. Can't travel or work for an agency. Can't drive more than an hour for work unless the pay is really worth it. I've applied for 25 nursing jobs so far around...

    Selected for urine test and used hand sanitizer

    PsychRNXXX replied to JuneBug13's topic in Nurses Recovery

    Yeh so all I'm talking about is controlled medication. Not false positives. Actual benzos or actual opiates. If you take some med with alcohol in it and it's known to have that etc. if you have a...

    Selected for urine test and used hand sanitizer

    PsychRNXXX replied to JuneBug13's topic in Nurses Recovery

    Umm no... if I have a script for ANY thing then it's like a pass. Those are just the meds I take or if I start a new med - as long as the case manager is aware and I upload a pharmacy tag for the MRO...

    Selected for urine test and used hand sanitizer

    PsychRNXXX replied to JuneBug13's topic in Nurses Recovery

    For me, all I have to do is show proof of the script to the Medical Review Officer who alerts my case analyst for the BON. The urine result will show "prescription positive" for my UDS. Not sure how...

    PsychRNXXX replied to Universe93B's topic in Nurses Recovery

    Oh. Yea no not that diagnosis. Just monitoring I guess. But you can be done in 12 months if you already had a job and they allowed you to continue there. But 12-24 months realistically - like I just...

    Can I work as a CNA if I'm a LPN

    PsychRNXXX replied to Mike58293's topic in General Nursing

    First off, the thing I thought of immediately was that you passed the NCLEX as an LPN. So you ARE competent and smart no matter what your IQ is. We were required here in NC to get our CNA first...

    Agree. A CT scan is wild. Like what in the world! Yeh on night shift it seems that some people do fall asleep. Some jobs will put in their policy that it's an ultimate termination of your job. All...

    Privatization of Monitoring Programs: Profit Driven Motives

    Are you guys going to AA/NA meetings or not, how to track?

    PsychRNXXX replied to Universe93B's topic in Nurses Recovery

    I don't have a substance use diagnosis either. But it's almost like that's what you get anyway once you're in this program/consent order. I don't have to go to AA or NA at this time. I guess those...

    Consent Order Active and Failed an Employer Drug Screen?

    PsychRNXXX replied to PsychRNXXX's topic in Nurses Recovery

    I know it's legally binding. I don't know how to prove anything though. They can't retest that actual urine. The job doesn't keep it or anything. It was odd because the med that showed up, I hadn't...
