"Today we are going to be doing an in-home test for drugs of abuse. There are a number of reasons why somebody might want to test for drugs at home. You may have suspicions about a loved one or a child being involved in illegal drug abuse. You yourself might be an illegal drug abuser or somebody who has casually used an illegal drug in recent history and has an upcoming test for employment or for a current employer or perhaps for the corrections or law enforcement in your community. And it might just be in your best interest to see what sort of test results are going to come up before you go and take a drug test of consequence. Home testing is not necessarily new. There have been test kits that have been portable. A urine or cheek sample does not require a doctor's office to take as I will be showing you here today. And not everybody wants to go through a blood draw and the cost of having their blood processed and examined for drugs of abuse."
