The Healthcare Professional Profile (HPP)
Because of the potential of drug abuse by healthcare workers and the immense liability it brings to your organization, Employer Solutions has developed a comprehensive panel of tests for drugs that are readily accessible to professionals in the healthcare industry.
Physician impairment is a major concern for the profession and society as a whole. Despite their knowledge and training, medical professionals are just as at risk to substance abuse as is the general population. Drug abuse by medical professionals can result in loss of careers, risk to patient care and deterioration of family life.¹
The Healthcare Professional Profile (HPP) tests for a variety of prescribed drugs that currently pass undetected in conventional testing profiles of street drugs, such as marijuana, cocaine and amphetamines. The initial screening of the comprehensive Healthcare Professional Profile (HPP-I) is performed using immunoassay technology (specifically EIA and ELISA) for all analytes. This technology affords rapid turnaround times. Screening for any additional drugs not included in the comprehensive Healthcare Professional Profile (HPP-I) will be performed using gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (GC/MS) technology.
Using the HPP from Employer Solutions, you can:
- Detect the abuse of available narcotics and sedatives in healthcare facilities
- Reduce employee turnover due to drug abuse
- Limit your liability by protecting your patients from impaired healthcare professionals
- Reduce long-term costs to your facility caused by employee inefficiency
- Maintain a high quality of patient care by deterring employees from taking these drugs and providing placebos to patients
- Help reduce absenteeism, injuries, mistakes and theft
The HPP is suitable for pre-employment, post-accident, random and for-cause screening for:
- Employers
- Hospitals
- Long-term care facilities
- Pharmacies
- Other licensed professional organizations
