Drug Screening Clinic in Dearborn, MI

Specialty Urgent Care is committed to providing reliable and compliant drug screening solutions. From pre-employment checks to personal peace of mind, we offer comprehensive services tailored to your specific needs.

If you’re an employer, we can assist you in maintaining a safe and productive work environment through reliable drug testing for your prospective or current employees. This is particularly crucial for jobs involving heavy machinery operation, transportation, or healthcare. We can also aid you in upholding safety regulations by testing heavy equipment operators or individuals working with hazardous materials.

For those involved in legal proceedings, our drug screening services can provide the necessary evidence of substance use or monitor compliance with court-ordered drug rehabilitation programs. We cooperate fully with court orders and legal requirements for drug testing in criminal cases, probation, or child protection proceedings.

In our healthcare setting, we use drug screening for various medical reasons. These include evaluating patients presenting with symptoms suggestive of drug intoxication or withdrawal, confirming suspected drug overdoses or poisonings, and assessing patients’ treatment efficacy in substance abuse rehabilitation programs. We also use it for preoperative evaluations and monitoring patients’ prescribed controlled substances for conditions like chronic pain to ensure correct medication usage.

We also provide drug screening services for athletes, helping to maintain the integrity of sports competitions by ensuring compliance with banned substance regulations.

Our experienced healthcare professionals are well-versed in administering both drug screens and drug tests, providing reliable results for your peace of mind.

Drug Screening

For quick and cost-effective results, we offer drug screening services. Our point-of-care tests can detect the presence of drug classes in a person’s system using urine, saliva, or blood samples. This service is particularly beneficial for businesses seeking a quick pre-employment screening or for individuals who need immediate results. However, it’s essential to keep in mind that while drug screens are efficient, they may not provide the specificity needed to differentiate between drugs within the same class.

Drug Testing

If you need more detailed information about drug usage, we also offer comprehensive drug testing services. Our tests can specifically identify and quantify the presence of individual drugs or their metabolites using advanced laboratory techniques. While drug tests do take longer and are more costly, they provide a higher level of accuracy.

Navigating the pre-employment drug screening process can be stressful. Specialty Urgent Care is here to support you. We provide accurate and confidential drug testing, as well as information on the potential consequences of a failed test. Let’s work together to help you succeed.

Influence on Employment Prospects

Failing a drug screening can reduce your employment opportunities, especially in sectors like healthcare, where we operate. A failed drug test may remain in your medical records and could deter potential employers from hiring you.

Possibility of Retesting

In the event of a failure, some employers may offer a retest to rule out false positives. If the second test is failed, the job offer may be withdrawn.

Health Considerations

Drug use can have severe effects on your physical and mental health. If you fail a drug screening, it could indicate the need for medical intervention or addiction treatment.

Our dedicated and experienced staff understands the complexities of drug elimination from the body. We are equipped to help you understand this process, which varies greatly and involves several stages, such as absorption, distribution, metabolization, and excretion.

Depending on the drug’s half-life, metabolism rate, excretion rate, and individual factors like age, sex, weight, and overall health status, the time it takes for a drug to be eliminated from the body can vary significantly. This understanding can be crucial in determining the right dosage and medication for you.

Our clinic is equipped to handle everything from short-acting drugs like caffeine and paracetamol, which are eliminated within a few hours, to long-acting drugs like digoxin and antiepileptic medications, which can take several days to weeks to be fully eliminated from your body.

We offer drug-level testing in blood or urine to monitor elimination rates and ensure that you are receiving the appropriate dosage. Our clinic is dedicated to creating individualized treatment plans for patients who may require special attention, such as those with liver or kidney problems or who are taking multiple medications.

We are capable of detecting a wide range of substances. For instance, we can screen for illicit drugs like Marijuana, Cocaine, Amphetamines, Methamphetamines, Opiates, and PCP which are commonly required in work-related drug tests. Our team can also detect prescription drugs like Benzodiazepines, Barbiturates, Methadone, Oxycodone, and certain antidepressants. This can be crucial in determining if a patient is abusing prescription medication or adhering to their prescribed regimen.

We can also detect other controlled substances like anabolic steroids and hallucinogens, and even the presence of alcohol in the body. This can be particularly useful in certain settings such as law enforcement or traffic incidents.
