@ whatever comes: I'm not sure what prompted you to pick up an old thread & post as you did. I personally think you need to take your own advice before going off on a rant & bashing others. Bottom line, it doesn't matter one bit what you- or ...

Txnursegal78: Yeppers, it is hard! But, if this is what you truly want, you have no choice other than to comply. Just continue to put one foot in front of the other, & do the next right thing. Try not to look at the whole big picture- just the ne...

These days, I am profoundly grateful to be dealing with a very messy, difficult family matter (involving my son & granddaughter- not mine, or my hubby's) in a very calm, clean & sober, rational manner! It really helps to have my emotions &...

I have no idea what you should expect- but want to wish you all the best! Take care of yourself & the baby!! I'm happy for you!

@ SleeepyRN & roser13- I so very much agree- this reply was un-necessarily snarky!! & not helpful at all!

@ catsmeow- I "liked" your posts above- not because I like what has happened to you, but because the truth needs to be posted for those new to the recovery process. I am so sorry about what has happened to you- it is most unfortunate & detrimenta...

In TPAPN- quite a few years ago- I got approved to work nights. It had been my regular shift before, & I had spent some time on days, but then was allowed to go back to nightshift.

@ajg1117- it would be helpful if we know what state, & what area of that state, you are in! Welcome!

so very glad for you! congrats!! does your TPAPN start now- or you already in that process?

ummm.....did you read the previous couple of posts?? js...

Oma: I, too, am sorry to hear this....wishing you all the best...hang in there....take care!

Liberty- it sounds like you are in a fortunate position- to not have to take a job just to get through your monitoring period. Best of luck- keep us posted!

Omaapecm- please keep us posted! Keep your positive attitude- we are all just human! Take care, my friend!!

Yeppers- parts of Texas are a big ole mess right now! So very glad this worked out so well for you!! So nice to hear!!

there is another very current thread about this exact same issue......it is directly under this thread....

taking all things in to consideration- bottom line- being on Subox, even with an Rx from a doc (which might cover you for a drug screen)- most BON's will not allow any nurse to work while on Subox- even if you wean off & they ever find out about...

newmommy: the advice TXRNC gave you is correct- at least for TPAPN. best of luck!

Can you not look up collection sites near Destin on First Lab's website- then check individual ones to see if they are open on weekends?

hmm....you would think they might have encountered this problem before....hopefully, their brains wake up soon & they figure this one out!

@ Twoyear: Wow- how crazy & frustrating is that??!! Do you live in one of those remote areas of your state where everything moves by airplane?? Surely, there is some sort of solution for this! :***:

As a nurse working in a facility that is currently gearing up to achieve magnet status- I find this thread most interesting. I knew it had to cost $$ to achieve this goal- had no idea it was quite that much! And, we are already having to do some comm...

Twoyear: Did something happen to precipitate this feeling? Just curious about that- either way- I know you know what to do- the next right thing, keep moving forward, pamper yourself a little, do something fun & uplifting....take care, sweet girl...

Wow! I'm so very sorry- that's a most unfortunate error....I really feel for you! That being said- put it behind you, don't dwell on it...just keep doing the next right thing- it will eventually work out! Hugs to you!!

Seanzilla: Very good advice you have given! However, I have one question- does TPAPN now allow parties to work in Home Health? (It used to be forbidden!). Just wondering- for those entering the program.

just one small question- you state you do not have an addiction- what are the circumstances that caused you to fail the drug screen?
