  1. Help! Advice needed HPRP Michigan

    MichelleTinsel replied to MiRN07's topic in Nurses Recovery

    I have never been an alcoholic, just made a horrible mistake one night. The arrest just scared me completely sober. I did IOP to look good for the court. I haven't "relapsed", I just stopped drinking...

  2. Help! Advice needed HPRP Michigan

    MichelleTinsel replied to MiRN07's topic in Nurses Recovery

    Yeah, my 2 evals were done by HPRP approved evaluators. Basically because of my owi, I got 3 years no matter what. My therapist who did the first eval wants to get some of this shortened. Mostly I'm...

  3. Help! Advice needed HPRP Michigan

    MichelleTinsel replied to MiRN07's topic in Nurses Recovery

    Good to know! Thanks for all the info! My diagnosis is "recovering alcoholic" based on eval. I drank a few times a week in the past. None for the past two. Mostly based on my owi I'm sure. Haven't...

  4. Help! Advice needed HPRP Michigan

    MichelleTinsel replied to MiRN07's topic in Nurses Recovery

    I signed a 3 year contact, did 2 evals. My first evaluator is also serving as my therapist and she's confused why they gave me all of this and said she'll try to get it

  6. Help! Advice needed HPRP Michigan

    MichelleTinsel replied to MiRN07's topic in Nurses Recovery

    How often do you guys get called to test for RecoveryTrek? 3 days in I got called for a blood test and I'm just wondering how many times a month this will

  7. Help! Advice needed HPRP Michigan

    MichelleTinsel replied to MiRN07's topic in Nurses Recovery

    Bc a licensed therapist gave me a diagnosis in a 30 min virtual eval with nothing but a few questions. The psychiatrist should have been the one to diagnose. But I just gave up. Oh yours is very...

  8. Help! Advice needed HPRP Michigan

    MichelleTinsel replied to MiRN07's topic in Nurses Recovery

    Yes, my first eval was HPRP approved and the 2nd too. A therapist gave me a diagnosis from the first eval (which actually isn't legal). My 2nd evaluator was straight up honest with me and said due to...

  9. Help! Advice needed HPRP Michigan

    MichelleTinsel replied to MiRN07's topic in Nurses Recovery

    Definitely is. I mailed out the agreement already bc in intake manager said to today and she asks for workplace approval tomorrow. The way they drag stuff out is stressful for no reason. It has to be...

    No, it's a Monday through Friday gig 8a-430p. My manager agreed to be my

  11. Help! Advice needed HPRP Michigan

    MichelleTinsel replied to MiRN07's topic in Nurses Recovery

    So I told my manager and she's vouching for me. They talked to her today to confirm my workplace....is there a chance they won't approve my workplace? It's a cancer center and I didn't work here when...

  12. Recovery Trek - Test Options

    MichelleTinsel replied to RecoveryRN's topic in Nurses Recovery

    I already did a recovery program and I'm in ongoing general therapy. I was never recommended AA when I was seen by experts in the past. So I just don't get how doing it again would help me. They just...

  13. Recovery Trek - Test Options

    MichelleTinsel replied to RecoveryRN's topic in Nurses Recovery

    I wasn't an alcoholic before, just a stupid mistake, but I'm abstaining completely so it won't ever happen again. I understand I'll get some time due to the charge...but im not okay with 3 years. The...

  14. Recovery Trek - Test Options

    MichelleTinsel replied to RecoveryRN's topic in Nurses Recovery

    I just think 3 years is insane. My owi was dropped to the lowest misdemeanor; it was intent to drive, I wasn't driving. It wasn't related to my job at all so I'm just not understanding. I'm sure I'll...

  15. Recovery Trek - Test Options

    MichelleTinsel replied to RecoveryRN's topic in Nurses Recovery

    Okay so 3 years must be common? Good that another eval knocks at least 1 year off, but I'm not willing to do any. I'd rather just surrender my license and do something else. Thanks for all the advice...

  16. Recovery Trek - Test Options

    MichelleTinsel replied to RecoveryRN's topic in Nurses Recovery

    They're trying to serve me with a 3 year monitoring agreement including therapy 3 times a week and weekly tests. I completed an IOP program after my offense and sent them proof. Been completely sober...

  17. Help! Advice needed HPRP Michigan

    MichelleTinsel replied to MiRN07's topic in Nurses Recovery

    You're right, it's the toxic culture. I'll see what they say Friday and if it's an agreement, I'll lawyer up. I've put in the work and been sober since my incident. I've never been in trouble at a job...

  18. Help! Advice needed HPRP Michigan

    MichelleTinsel replied to MiRN07's topic in Nurses Recovery

    Okay awesome. Thanks for all of this info! I would be absolutely willing to have another evaluation. The first evaluator straight up told me she didn't think I need monitoring and she said they...

  19. Help! Advice needed HPRP Michigan

    MichelleTinsel replied to MiRN07's topic in Nurses Recovery

    You think so? If this happens, I'll get a lawyer bc the evaluator isn't even recommending anything. I completed IOP in 2023. I'm "non regulatory" so my job doesn't

  20. Help! Advice needed HPRP Michigan

    MichelleTinsel replied to MiRN07's topic in Nurses Recovery

    Im in MI as well. I reported my owi that happened in 2023 and they're just now looking into me. I did a recovery program voluntarily right after and have been sober since. I didn't get probation or...

  21. Recovery Trek - Test Options

    MichelleTinsel replied to RecoveryRN's topic in Nurses Recovery

    The initial evaluation was done by one of three people that they offered. So that was one of theirs, right? The evaluator told me they normally listen to her suggestions so I'm

  22. Recovery Trek - Test Options

    MichelleTinsel replied to RecoveryRN's topic in Nurses Recovery

    My drug test was negative and the psychologist I got an evaluation from is recommending only therapy, but not a monitoring agreement. What are my chances of avoiding an agreement? My OWI was also 2...

  23. Recovery Trek - Test Options

    MichelleTinsel replied to RecoveryRN's topic in Nurses Recovery

    Everything I've read so far says they don't. Unfortunately they gave me a deadline only a couple days after I received a letter in the mail. Would have abstained if I'd known sooner. My at...
