Location: Southeast San Antonio / Southcross area

Position Summary

The Unscripted Therapy & Wellness Center is seeking one male and one female urine specimen collector to provide directly observed urine collection services for justice-involved adults.

Two collectors are needed because directly observed collections must be completed by a qualified collector of the same gender as the participant. The positions are part-time and contingent upon contract award, credential verification, and final approval.

Applicants interested in also performing sweat-patch application and removal must possess or complete the authorized sweat-patch application and removal training before providing that service.
