is a nurse practicing in Missouri that has, already, previously been placed on probation for testing positive for heroin. She has recently had a relapse in her recovery and is fighting to get her license back so she can practice nursing. The state board has already given her one chance and she was practicing in Missouri. She has been sober for nearly 3 years and has taken suboxone the entire time of her sobriety to help with withdrawal. E.M. hates that she has a dependency on the suboxone and wanted very badly to wean herself off of it. She spoke with her physician about this matter and her physician strongly suggested that she not be taken completely off her prescription of suboxone. Her physician lowered her dose and she began taking a lower dose. After time passed, E.M. felt like she had things under control and she completely stopped taking her prescription. E.M. went under some stress at her job and ended up leaving the facility she was working at. She knew that one of her old co-workers had access to heroin and after running into him at a local store, she started abusing again. Beginning at the time of her first time being placed on probation E.M. has been required to provide urine samples at randomly selected intervals. During her time of remission, when she was abusing, she failed to call and leave urine samples. At this time, E.M. explained that she was focusing on bettering herself and working on her sobriety. I feel that E.M. was very sincere and was accountable for her actions. She truthfully took responsibility for her wrongful actions. E.M. stated that she now realizes that her heroin addiction is a lifelong addiction that will always be knocking at her door and she cannot stop taking suboxone. The board questioned her and wanted to make sure she did not have plans of going against her physician’s orders again. E.M. was in tears almost the entire time she was explaining her actions to the members of the board and I feel like they were true
