Get ANOTHER evaluation from a NON Michigan BON approved SUD evaluator. Why? You then have not 1, but TWO different evaluators saying you don't need monitoring. It's a slam dunk. The BON will back down...

Everything. It means NOTHING as to what that panel "tests for" BECAUSE your case manager commonly does ADD ON's. Your case manager can and does commonly Add On ANY........ANY drug they want to test...

You need to get an attorney. You shouldn't have been in monitoring to start with. There shouldn't be a "one year rule out monitoring program" because that defeats the purpose of the SUD eval to start...

It is a money grab and sucks, but it also is huge in that nurses favor if she comes out with an Eval stating no SUD. That's SLAM dunk evidence and the BON relents and goes away when they see these...

There are a lot of Maximus types out there. I blame the corrupt California BON for giving them the contract. If the California BON wasn't corrupt, then the monitoring program in California and ruining...

False. 1 percent versus 99 percent. It's not exaggerating or overblown for the 1 percent that can have their life ruined. 99 percent of humans that fall 10 feet who are between the ages of 8 and 55...

I like sweets and Friday is my day I eat cake. I avoid cupcakes and icing through the week, but I've been eating desserts and cake for over 4 years and never had an issue, but I always do it on Friday...

Timing is critical. Within 12-14 hours, it's gone. It's rare that it happens for a positive, when it does, it's the same story every time (that I have heard) and that is, nurse ate 2 cupcakes or a...
My friend just got released from monitoring early. Her consent order didn't allow for her to petition the BON early, but her consent order deferred her monitoring time to the monitoring program which...

Your case manager won't do anything to you and nothing will happen. It's more likely a lab error instead of being too concentrated. They know lab errors happen and they are going to occur. You can't...

I'm not a nurse attorney. I'm a former paralegal. The threshold is basically when the organization has clear evidence of diversion. A pixis discrepancy is and has been done by probably 99 percent of...

The answer unfortunately....is yes, they can, but here's the scary part. By Federal Law, every hospital in the USA must report suspected or confirmed Diversion cases to the DEA within 45 days of the...

If I were in California, I would get an attorney and file suit against 2 people on the BON. I am NOT giving legal advice. I am saying what I would do. Nurses don't understand the following...... they...

From this point on.....IF you have never admitted diversion to anyone including the evaluator and your only positive is weed, there's a decent chance you get little monitoring or no mo itorong if you...
