RN with Allegations of Drug Diversion, Refused Employment Drug Screen, and Declined HPRP.
N/AOUTCOME: We resolved the summary suspension and had the administrative complaint dismissed.
We are unique in that our firm possess a great deal of knowledge regarding the practice of medicine, nursing, and professional licensing. The client retained us to 1) overturn the suspension, and 2) fa ... vorably resolve the administrative complaint. After allegations of diversion and refusal of an employment drug screen, the nurse was referred to HPRP and proceeded through initial intake. When HPRP recommended a 3 year monitoring agreement, the client refused and as a result his license was summarily suspended. We were able to quickly gather enough favorable testimony, physical evidence, and documentary evidence supporting the client’s case regarding his reasons for refusing the drug screen. Additionally, we were able to determine that what the Board of Nursing believed was evidence of diversion, was actually just a documentation error. The administrative law judge promptly overturned (dissolved) the suspension and allowed the Client to return to work. After dissolving the summary suspension we attempted to reach an acceptable resolution with the Board of Nursing but unfortunately the Board would not agree to dismiss the complaint. The case proceeded to a Formal Administrative Hearing on the merits of the case. Having a significant amount of trial experience and experience in administrative licensing cases, we were able to present a compelling case to the administrative law judge and ultimately received a favorable proposal for decision recommending that the case be dismissed. After receiving the proposal for decision, the Board of Nursing dismissed the complaint. The client received no adverse administrative action for his refusal of an employment drug screen, allegations of diversion, and refusal to enter an HPRP monitoring agreement.
