US Drug Test Centers is helping employers, employees, and other residents of Portland, Oregon stay drug-free. Keep reading to learn more about our drug testing services, alcohol testing, and other ways we're helping prevent and monitor substance abuse.
A drug-free workplace is vital to the survival and growth of any business.
Substance abuse in the workplace can lead to a decrease in productivity and morale, an increase in employee turnover, and more on-the-job accidents and crime.
We have several ways of conducting drug and alcohol testing in Portland: urine drug testing, hair drug testing, and breath alcohol tests.
Urine drug tests are quick and non-invasive, making them a common method for drug screening.
Hair follicle drug tests offer a few unique benefits. Because the entire drug test is monitored by the collector, they're harder to cheat.
Plus, they offer a longer lookback window. In other words, these drug tests are better for detecting long-term patterns of substance abuse.
We use breath alcohol tests to screen for the presence of EtG (alcohol) in the employee's body.

Do you need a drug test in a hurry? We have two options that provide extra-speedy drug test results.
Our instant urine drug testing (also called point-of-collection testing or POCT) returns negative results to the employer on the same day.
With our on-site mobile drug testing services, a collector will meet you (or your employee) within two hours to collect the sample for drug testing.
US Drug Test Centers can screen for a large variety of substances, including marijuana, heroin, cocaine, PCP, barbiturates, methadone, bath salts, opioids/opiates, amphetamines/methamphetamines, steroids, Rohypnol, and suboxone.
We can even test for unknown substances, which is helpful if you believe you've been poisoned but you don't know what you consumed.
There are a few key scenarios in which employers might want to request drug testing in Portland:
Pre-employment drug test: A pre-employment drug test is often required before a candidate will officially be hired by the business.
Reasonable suspicion drug test: If you notice signs of impairment, you can conduct a reasonable suspicion drug test.
Random drug test: We accomplish this via our random drug testing consortium.
Post-accident drug test: Employers will do this to determine if drugs or alcohol were involved in an accident.
Return-to-duty: Before an employee can return to the workplace, they must undergo a drug test and receive negative results.
If your business operates under the Department of Transportation (DOT) in Portland, we can help you stay compliant with local and federal regulations so that you can pass a DOT audit at any time!

What makes us different from other drug testing facilities in Portland?
We ensure accurate results in a couple of unique ways. We only work with SAMHSA-certified labs in Portland. These labs are held to higher standards regarding the equipment they use and the processes they follow.
Additionally, we have all drug test results verified by a medical review officer (MRO) — a doctor who will confirm that the results are accurate and nothing triggered a false-positive test result.
With the assistance of certified labs and MROs, you can trust that your lab test results are thorough and accurate.
Furthermore, we aim to make getting tested in Portland as convenient as possible. You can order a test online in a matter of minutes. Same-day results are sometimes available. And we have more than 20,000 testing labs across the United States. We're never more than a short drive away!
