...the opposite sex?guy or girl? Is this how all combination Methadone/Pain clinics work? I know the laws are Rigid with these programs but this has to be the line.
In My Doctor's Methadone/Pain Managment clinic everyone there is lumped together: Mr.Middle-Age w/prostate cancer and Mr.Dickhead Charged with armed-robbery and court mandated treatment, all there to get methadone.
Because of the very few enrolled who've been caught cheating the PP test, everyone must be observed directly, through a hole in the stall, by a nurse. This is to make sure the urine samples are "Valid". Literally, they got to see the cup and the PP flowing from your ding-dong or cha-cha. For guys they have to stand sideways at the toilet so they can watch you. This is a female nurse servicing 240 patients with 60% male clients That's like a female cop strip searching a male inmate 2x a week for 2 months, then a little less frequent. This is a smaller clinic in a canadian city of 150,000. There are many many cancer patients and users waiting for enrollment.Maybe it is because this clinic is only a few years old or maybe exceeding the guidelines but C"MON!
Note: The nurses are professional but far from "Spring Chickens". But that is beside the point. Experiences from other CND MMT's ?
