We take your privacy seriously and understand the magnitude of your current situation, as well as its impact on your career and family. While we are required to report monitoring information for mandated, WV Board Referred or Employer Referred admissions to the governing bodies of West Virginia, nurses entering WVR voluntarily or on Self-Report have confidentiality (unless reported by another entity). So, don't hesitate to pick up the phone and call us for more information.
Identifying a nurse who is struggling with addiction or a qualifying mental health condition can be difficult. They often don't fit the stereotype of a typical user. They may be the professional who is coming in early, staying late and seems like they are providing quality patient care. In most cases, if you suspect something is wrong, it probably is. Remember: If you are an employer or coworker and suspect a colleague is potentially impaired, it is your obligation to report your concerns. Call us today fo
