    NP in recovery

    KyBeagle replied to joey1979pa's topic in Nurses Recovery

    It looks like Joey hasn’t visited this site in almost 3 years. Not sure if y’all get an answer

    OFFICALLY DONE WITH 3 YEAR PROBATION!

    KyBeagle replied to Anon143's topic in Nurses Recovery

    LOL! @Uncle-JoJo I was at work on the day that I “graduated”. I went to the hospital cafeteria & used the Red Wine vinegar on my salad instead of the apple cider vinegar that I had been...

    Meltdown at work, does TPAPN need to know?

    KyBeagle replied to N377311's topic in Nurses Recovery

    If you handled it as exactly as you reported above, and there was another nurse available to which the patient could be reassigned, I see no reason why this would be reported to

    Ohio probation

    KyBeagle replied to KingJames1227's topic in Nurses Recovery

    I believe you’re going to have to check with the Ohio BON for a straight answer on this. It would seem that the RATIONAL answer to this would be no. You’ve already completed probation so why would...

    Failed pre employment screen

    KyBeagle replied to Angel_Rivera's topic in Nurses Recovery

    You need to call an attorney ASAP. Not a criminal attorney but one that has experience in front of the NYS BON. If you lived in Kentucky, you would definitely be subject to 5 years of the KARE...

    Meltdown at work, does TPAPN need to know?

    KyBeagle replied to N377311's topic in Nurses Recovery

    I was in the KY KARE program. I missed 3 check-ins over my 5 year contract. The first 2 were within the first 7 months. Each time, I dutifully emailed my CM with an explanation, as stipulated in the...

    Not 4 sure

    KyBeagle replied to Myquestion's topic in Nurses Recovery

    God, I hope not! I couldn’t fathom the idea of being responsible for all you other nurses out there AND your life’s situations! Whew! I do well enough shouldering my OWN life situations/...

    Patient Care Coordinator in ED

    KyBeagle replied to choksantos's topic in General Nursing

    It’s been such a learning experience. Understanding WHY the “little things” are SO important to document, from the perspective of payment instead of liability. We use InterQual guidelines....

    Patient Care Coordinator in ED

    KyBeagle replied to choksantos's topic in General Nursing

    I’m an ED Care Coordinator. The role can encompass various duties, dependent upon the facility. Regardless of where you work, it will have a huge component of ED discharge planning for the...

    Dilaudid & Zofran?

    KyBeagle replied to nursing_newbie's topic in Patient Medications

    Dilaudid & Zofran... I’ve given them together hundreds of times in the ED ( or maybe ...thousands)??? Never seen serotonin syndrome in my patients. But you made me curious so I also looked at...

    False positive urine

    KyBeagle replied to TESSIENP's topic in Nurses Recovery

    I’m very happy to hear that you got BOTH the hair test AND the polygraph. That will help. At least it’s much better that doing nothing. It sure won’t hurt to have added these to your orificenal....

    And just like that... it's over.

    KyBeagle replied to TexasMel's topic in Nurses Recovery

    How true! Even when settling into a routine between the 1 year to 5 year mark, my head was still filled with worries/anxieties with all the KARE program stipulations (“checking-in” with Affinity...

    False positive urine

    KyBeagle replied to TESSIENP's topic in Nurses Recovery

    @TESSIENP OMG- I’m so sorry to hear this. You’ve experienced what each & every one of us have feared the most. You can read through this entire forum, and through the years the biggest fear is...

    For those who have taken board drug tests

    KyBeagle replied to Glb12287's topic in Nurses Recovery

    I wouldn’t chance it. Labcorp does offer a urine screen & GC/MS confirmation for Kratom. It’s also listed on one of their synthetic opiate panels. I doubt that this test is included on the...

    A week later, and the job is done

    KyBeagle replied to KatmamaRN's topic in Nurses Recovery

    Yay! Finally you join the elite ranks! I swear, I think completing (and winning) the Survivor TV show, although more difficult, would have been much less stressful!

    Kentucky Board KARE

    KyBeagle replied to tarab333's topic in Nurses Recovery

    I concur with Happynurse25. If it’s panel O- 792441, I’ve always guessed it was a regular “routine” panel with etg instead of just ethanol. Again- just a GUESS! I usually received that panel...

    Ohio BON help

    Ohio BON help

    KyBeagle replied to Lulu3387's topic in Nurses Recovery

    This. Every single word that @SpankedInPittsburgh said... I agree 100%. Do NOT sit down with them before talking to an attorney that has experience dealing with the Ohio BON. In Kentucky, refusal to...

    KyBeagle replied to Glb12287's topic in Nurses Recovery

    First- congrats on NOT taking anything for a year. Very smart move. I second what everyone has said so far. Yes- positive drug screen & multiple wasted meds...your attorney probably can not get...

    Peth test

    KyBeagle replied to Rnbsn3089's topic in Nurses Recovery

    @SpankedInPittsburgh ??? Sorry! I know this is a serious, scary topic for nurses in monitoring. But I just read your comment tonight- and you made me laugh out loud! Pee Test Factory...I instantly...

    Peth test

    KyBeagle replied to MikeD's topic in Nurses Recovery

    Mike- I read about your experience in another post. (+ urine etg & + PEth followed by Neg etg hair test). Did the hair test “clear” you? Or did you face repercussions in your Pilot Monitoring...

    Peth test

    KyBeagle replied to MikeD's topic in Nurses Recovery

    @MikeD No, I specifically haven’t. I recently finished a 5 year Monitoring program for narcotic addiction. I only had one PEth (which was neg). The other 104 tests were all urines that either...
