Tested Positive for THC at a Pre Employment Drug Screening

Updated:   Published

I recently tested positive for a pre employment drug screening for THC. I smoked CBD before going out and running errands as it helped with my social anxiety. I was contacted by the DOH in Florida recently and I decided to look for an attorney.

One of them I spoke with suggested I go to IPN and get an evaluation done but after reading testimonies from other nurses who also tested positive for THC, it seems like all of them were hit with a 5 year contract.

I heard it can get very expensive. That IPN's main goal is to wring you for all your worth. 

Does anyone have any experiences they can share including how long they were forced to be under contract as well as how much it cost?

I decided to just quit CBD in itself because it was not worth the trouble I am going through right now and I am now a month without it.

For example if a nurse takes a whole bottle of acetaminophen is that nurses safe to practice?

The reasoning is that if a person has nothing to hide they would take the test.

They don't have to prove it. They won't give you schedules or do not hire you.

I just got the email from my attorney that my case is closed! Best $6000 I've ever spent!
