The DON stated a 14-panel toxicology screen was not a lab that the facility normally drew. She stated when inquiring about the lab draw lab had given 3-4 answers. She stated the lab appeared more confused than they were. The DON stated she expected the lab turnaround time to be within the next day for a STAT order. The DON stated the facility called it in STAT because they had a limited time to collect if before certain drugs were out of the system. The DON stated they had not considered seeking an alternate source to get the 14-panel toxicology screen collected. She stated she knew the lab had a contract with a local hospital to get lab draws but they had never used an outside source.
