  1. TPAPN HELP

    Ash2213 replied to Scared-RN's topic in Nurses Recovery

    I do think the board will just refer you to TPAPN, and since you have self reported to TPAPN already, it will most likely stay confidential, e.g. won't be posted on your license...as long as you...

  2. Trouble at the lab today, what to do?

    Ash2213 posted a topic in Nurses Recovery

    I swear, it's always something. Today at the lab, a second collector came in and was helping the lady that usually collects my urine. So, she took the cup from me to pour into the little container,...

  3. Anyone else obsessively check test results?

    Ash2213 replied to mimifromtx's topic in Nurses Recovery

    Yes. Sometimes I even check the day I test. Total OCD!! How can I not? And also if there is any email communication from my case manager I re-read it like a million

  4. IPN Neuropsych Eval

    Ash2213 replied to sheracraft's topic in Nurses Recovery

    This sounds like a big money

  5. Trouble at the lab today, what to do?

    Ash2213 replied to Ash2213's topic in Nurses Recovery

    Well, after waiting almost a week it was negative. I was sure something was wrong over here being negative Nancy since it took so long, but I guess it was just the holiday. All is well in monitoring...

  6. Trouble at the lab today, what to do?

    Ash2213 replied to Ash2213's topic in Nurses Recovery

    I do know one of their names, the place is pretty small and it has been the same people there for the last 2.5 years. And I know that the lady who dumped my pee out while trying to help is like the...

  7. Death and Repossession

    Ash2213 replied to Eris Discordia BSN, RN's topic in Nurses Recovery

    I am so sorry for your loss and struggle right now. I lost my mom in my second year of TPAPN and had to go test the day of her visitation. It was one of the lowest places I have been in my life. You...

  8. Have I proceeded correctly?

    Ash2213 replied to Persephone Paige's topic in Nurses Recovery

    This is insane. There is no way they do not have the split screen back yet. I think I would be down in Austin (where TX monitors are) with an attorney, demanding the results! For them to drag this out...

  9. Nevada now testing 2x/month and "witnessed" tests

    Ash2213 replied to dr. eatbox's topic in Nurses Recovery

    In TPAPN (TX) I have never had to be observed. I basically pay 55 per test, unless I have to go to CareNow that has a collection fee. Then it is 75. My opinion is an observed test is WAY overkill...

  10. Option 4 taking forever!

    Ash2213 posted a topic in Nurses Recovery

    Well, I know it can take a while but I am just freaking out. It has been a week and it hasn't resulted. This is only my second option 4. Last time I believe it only took 5 days to result. I guess I am...

  11. Option 4 taking forever!

    Ash2213 replied to Ash2213's topic in Nurses Recovery

    Well mine resulted the same day I posted this so it took a week. Something must have changed because we are all getting option 4s now, after never having anything other than 1-3. Actually, since...

  12. So much anger

    Ash2213 replied to hppygr8ful's topic in Nurses Recovery

    I do like to jump on the bitter bandwagon sometimes on these boards, I admit it. Sometimes it helps to vent and I am glad we have this place to do it because I certainly have no one else to complain...

  13. Have I proceeded correctly?

    Ash2213 replied to Persephone Paige's topic in Nurses Recovery

    This is pretty much my worst nightmare come true and I truly feel for you. I think in light of everything, you have proceeded correctly and firmly. Stick to your guns. Something is weird. Did they...

  14. Just sayin!

    Ash2213 replied to Big Blondie's topic in Nurses Recovery

    That is awesome Big Blonde. You were one of the first to respond to my very first post when I was so scared getting my referral. I truly wish you the best. I have just a little less than 8 months in...

  15. My Simple (!) Story

    Ash2213 replied to mimifromtx's topic in Nurses Recovery

    Wow. What the heck? Yes, I would have denied denied denied. Crazy that you are in TPAPN just for a family member referring you. 5 years, you must be an NP? That is a terrible

  16. Isolating, Obsessing, Life on hold

    Ash2213 replied to Recovering_RN's topic in Nurses Recovery

    I can so relate to all of this. I have pretty much been isolating from all of my friends for over 2 years. No way would I EVER share this with anyone, it is humiliating. AA teaches us we do not have...

  17. Tpapn new supervisors quarterly report

    Ash2213 replied to Recovering_RN's topic in Nurses Recovery

    I cannot see anything from my end either in regards to my employer's report. Also, my advocate hasn't yet bothered to send their's in yet. When I call my advocate, I usually do not get a call back....

  18. Lpn

    Ash2213 replied to Dterryy's topic in Nurses Recovery

    I am thinking it depends. If you just entered the program, it would depend on your sobriety date I am guessing. Things like THC can stay in urine a long time. If you just entered monitoring and are...

  19. TPAPN and terrified!

    Ash2213 replied to mom35's topic in Nurses Recovery

    UHS has a LOT of money. A LOT! And they pay a pretty penny to have big ole attorneys defend them. It is a sham. A million dollar lawsuit settlement is a drop in the bucket when they are worth 12...

  20. Option 4

    Ash2213 replied to Big Blondie's topic in Nurses Recovery

    Big Blondie, I recently just got my first option 4 this week as well. Looks like they're shakin' things up down in Austin! How long did it take for yours to post? Was it longer, like option

  21. TPAPN Quarterly reports changed?

    Ash2213 posted a topic in Nurses Recovery

    Does anyone know if the process has changed? I know they were gong be doing it electronically for our supervisor and advocate now, correct? I just haven't had any contact about it other than an email...

  22. TPAPN and terrified!

    Ash2213 replied to mom35's topic in Nurses Recovery

    I have had 2 jobs while in TPAPN. The first was at a hard up UHS behavioral health facility. Let me tell you, normal nurses who had other options would not have stayed there more than a week. But I...

  23. TPAPN Quarterly reports changed?

    Ash2213 replied to Ash2213's topic in Nurses Recovery

    Yeah, I got that too. I wonder if we get to see what our supervisors and advocates are saying about us when they are done? I don't contact my advocate much anymore. When I do, it takes him at least a...

  24. Option 3

    Ash2213 replied to TexNurse777's topic in Nurses Recovery

    I have had it take up to 10 days for option 3. (Usually option 1 is a couple of days). Option 3 definitely takes longer. I would not sweat it unless it goes longer than that. In the last 2.5 years I...

  25. TPAPN "step down"

    Ash2213 replied to Oogie's topic in Nurses Recovery

    So far, besides the first month of "step down" this has been true. I have been tested about every 25-30 days. It has been nice! Now if I can just figure out this silly quarterly report ordeal I would...
