Positive Drug Screen Statement
Applicants who earn admission into a KCC Health Sciences program must complete a drug screening test. This test checks for the presence of 10 substances, which are as follows:
- Marijuana
- Amphetamines
- Barbiturates
- Benzodiazepines
- Cocaine
- Methadone
- Methaqualone
- Opiates
- Phencyclidine

Students with a positive drug screen will be deemed ineligible to participate in clinical education. Furthermore, as clinical education is a critical requirement of Nursing, Allied Health and Emergency Medical Services programs, the student will be dismissed from their current program of study. Students who would like to be considered for readmission should refer to their program’s policy of readmission and direct questions to the program director.
