Students who have a known or suspected abuse problem will be referred to seek professional care at the Center for Student Counseling and Well-Being (CSCW). This will include mandatory education and possible referral to agencies that specialize in substance abuse and alcohol treatment and rehabilitation. If a medical student fails to attend an evaluation consultation at the CSCW, or if abuse interferes with the student’s academic work or performance in the clinical setting, a mandatory referral may be made to the Physician’s Recovery Network for evaluation and treatment, prior to return to the classroom or clinical setting, and the matter will also be referred to the SPAC. Students who refuse professional treatment and/or violate the provisions of the NSU Policy on a Drug Free Environment may be subject to dismissal from NSU MD in accordance with the procedures in this handbook. Urine Drug Screen NSU MD students may be required to submit to additional urine drug screen testing. A student who tests positive for illegal or illicit drugs, marijuana, even if prescribed or certified by a physician, or for a controlled substance that the student does not have a prescription for, will be referred to the SPAC for assessment. Mandatory Student Reporting of Positive Drug Test Results Students may not participate in clinical rotations until taking and receiving a negative (clear) result from their screening tests. After taking the tests, the students are expected to check for reported results regularly. In the event there are any positive results reported, students must immediately notify the Office of Admissions and Student Affairs of the positive result and should proceed to take action as directed by the assistant dean of Admissions and Student Affairs.
