Addicts in the Medical Professions

Does anyone know of any resources available for addicts in the medical or rehabilitation professions who relapse? Or have experience relapsing and getting and staying clean, despite their access to all sorts of pills?

Thanks!

Jolimar Recovery Center in Summit, Mississippi has a good nurses' program. 1-877-JOLIMAR.

If you are close to Mississippi.

Nice place too.

I had to leave my profession in pharmacy and may or may not go back... You can google rehabs in your area or meetings...Good Luck..

I went to treatment with several doctors, pharmacists, etc. They followed the same treatment program, however, the did have seperate caduceus meetings one day a week, as well is in aftercare. I know some work through the state licensing program, if that was an issue in their profession. However, I don't know how anonymous that would be.

You may want to do a google search on "impaired physicians" or the like. It brought up quite a bit of information when I did it.
