Testing options for Redondo Beach clients
- One-time tests. A single 12 panel urine drug test, a breathalyzer or an EtG alcohol test when you need an answer now. See one-time testing.
- Random testing program. You get a notice when it is your day to test, so nobody can plan around it. See the random drug testing program.
- Ongoing monitoring. A schedule set case by case with a monitoring coordinator who knows you and shares results only with people you authorize in writing. See drug and alcohol monitoring.
- Court ordered testing. Observed collection when required and chain of custody documentation when needed. See court ordered testing.
Screens cover common substances such as opioids, including fentanyl, stimulants, benzodiazepines and cannabis. Positives that will be acted on are confirmed by partner laboratories. Bring a photo ID and a list of your medications so results are read fairly.
