Prerequisites for Proper Collection

Regardless whether you are collecting a Federally Regulated or a Non-Federally Regulated urine drug screen, there are five areas which demand specific prerequisites or conditions prior to performing a proper collection. These are:

  1. Requirements for the collection site.
  2. Supplies needed to conduct a collection.
  3. Criteria that must be met by collectors.
  4. Complete and accurate documentation.
  5. Proper identification of the donor.

We will explore each of these in more detail over the next several pages.
