Guidelines for Drug Screen Test Results

This document identifies parameters for acceptable drug screen results to be used by Nurse Investigators and Case Managers when evaluating those results.  When a drug screen result falls outside the identified parameters, it will be considered a positive drug screen which may be considered adulterated, substituted, and invalid/unsuitable or dilute.  This finding could subject the nurse to further possible disciplinary action by the Board.
