Initial Urine Drug Screening

Prior to the first clinical course students will be randomly given a drug screen authorization form and a 24-hour time frame to complete a urine drug screen at one of the laboratory options provided.
Students will be required to show picture identification upon arrival. A driver’s license or passport are acceptable forms of identification.
The cost for all screening and medical review (if deemed necessary) is the students’ responsibility.
A negative report is necessary to continue in the program of study in the SONHS.
This screen need not be repeated as long as the student maintains continuous enrollment. Continuous enrollment is defined as enrollment in nursing classes during all consecutive semesters until graduation.
Students may be re-tested for cause or reasonable suspicion.
