This is often difficult.&nbsp; If it is after hours or over the weekend it is extremely difficult.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There is a solution available which is lab based oral fluid testing.&nbsp; Currently this is NonDOT only.&nbsp; This testing is designed for an employer manager or supervisor to manage the process of collecting the oral fluid specimen, completing some paperwork and sending the specimen to the Lab.&nbsp; The oral fluid collection is a very simple 5-minute process of the employee placing a swab in their mouth to collect saliva.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed aligncenter is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Oral Fluid Drug Testing | What Is It Best Used For?\" width=\"800\" height=\"450\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/Af4U6mItuMY?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer;

Positive results could take a day or so longer.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It would be a Company decision as to whether to have the employee to return to work pending the test result or have them stay home until the result comes back from the MRO.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Our 9-panel drug test with alcohol is recommended for this program.&nbsp; The tests includes alcohol along with marijuana, PCP, amphetamines, opiates, cocaine, benzodiazepines, barbiturates, methadone, propoxyphene.&nbsp; The opiates testing includes the expanded opioid testing of hydrocodone, hydromorphone, oxycodone and oxymorphone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Oral fluid testing is reliable and accurate and has a short window of detection of very recent drug use up to 2 days.&nbsp; This is perfect for a reasonable suspicion situation or an accident on the job.&nbsp; Cheating on this test is virtually impossible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Some great benefits of this solution:<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"alignright size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"300\" height=\"168\" src=\"https:\/\/www.nationaldrugscreening.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Quantisal-1.jpg\" alt=\"a person holding a sealed oral fluid test kit\" class=\"wp-image-98169\"\/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>You are not searching down a collection site to deal with an employee who may be impaired or who just had an accident<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>You are not having to have a supervisor transport an employee possibly impaired to a collection site<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Short window of detection to determine recent drug use<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Traditional urine drug testing will not detect very recent drug use (within the last few hours).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.nationaldrugscreening.com\/oral-fluid-drug-test\/\">Learn more about oral fluid drug testing<\/a> or call Joe Reilly at 321-622-2020 to get started with a great solution for reasonable suspicion and post-accident testing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Two options for Reasonable Suspicion Supervisor Training:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.mydrugtesttraining.com\/e\/courses\/nds-non-dot-supervisor-training-course\">Online Computer Based Training<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.nationaldrugscreening.com\/supervisor-training-reasonable-suspicion\/\">Webinar Training<\/a> (call to discuss custom webinar for your company)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>When you have a reasonable suspicion situation or an accident on the job, you are often now trying to get a drug and alcohol test completed.&nbsp;
