Question by Jim: I am applying to the police department and wanted to kno if i would be truned down because of a drug rehab?
I am applying to the philadelphia police department, my written exam is at the end of the month and i was wondering if when they do the medical backround will it show up that i was in a detox for 4 days…i have gotten different opinions some people tell me not to write it in the backround booklet because its confidential and others tell me to write it down and i was wondering what my options really are and what realisticly are my chances to get in.

You can write whatever you want. But one of the next things in the process is an oral board and you most likely will be asked about drugs. If you lie again you will fail the polygraph.
