On January 27, 2011, Ms. Atkins was requested to submit to a hair and urine screen. 5. On February 3, 2011, results from said screens were received which indicated that Ms. Atkins had tested positive for methamphetamine as well as codeine and hydrocodone in her hair and Tramadol in her urine. The Investigative Committee believed that due to Ms. Atkins' use of an illegal narcotic substance, specifically methamphetamine, along with other narcotic substances, and being licensed to provide respiratory care, that the health, safety and welfare of the public was at imminent risk of harm and that a summary suspension of her license to practice respiratory care was necessary to remove said risk of imminent harm to the health, safety and welfare of the public. Accordingly, pursuant to NRS 630.326(1): The Investigative Committee ordered that Ms. Atkins' license to practice respiratory care in the state of Nevada be suspended until further order of the Investigative Committee or Board and that the matter be heard on March 11, 2011 at 9:30 a.m., concurrently with the hearing set regarding the Order to Show Cause filed on February 4, 2011 in the matter, to determine the appropriateness of the suspension, unless the parties mutually agree to a longer period of time pursuant to NRS 630.326.
