Subject: {EXTERNAL} [MCOH-EH] Drug Screening

I am curious as to what other facilities are using as their drug screen methods for the following:
Pre-employment  Rapid on site testing (5 panel:  opiates, THC, amph/meth, cocaine, PCP)
Randoms  (None, except for those in our Employee Recovery Program)  We do witnessed randomly
Reasonable suspicion/cause or other mandatory:   Healthcare Professional Panel through CRL and/or COC blood alcohol, ETG/ETS

I am researching with plans to change our methods due to continuous reports and the new creative ways employees are coming up with in hopes of avoiding a positive result; such as, devices, using someone else's urine & maintaining adequate temp and actually have had 1 reported method where someone was injecting via catheter "homemade" urine who was eventually caught.




Thank you,
