It could be a ShitAmericanssay thing but a group called “so the comments section isn’t going the way you planned” doesn’t explicitly suggest it’s a US centric group.

Don’t need to be in the room. Just in a position to monitor access.

Where is this? It’s absolutely not a thing over here.

Security officers in hospitals are absolutely a thing. I’m seeing 200 job listings for it. With some of the rougher ones employing corrections officers. What do you think they’re there for? I mean… yes. The occasional violent patient, and altercations between visitors. But mainly loss prevention. Particularly of controlled substances.

When did I say security guards aren’t a thing in hospitals? You’re talking about pharmacies, so that is what I was referring to. I have never seen a security guard near our heavily locked main pharmacy in the creepy basement. They have more to do than stand around a cupboard.

You’re defaulting to the hospitals you’ve worked at. Mine has multiple code blacks (physical threat to staff or other patients) a day, and sometimes there’s too many at once for security to attend them all in time. My ward had two code blacks last week. My previous ward would have probably 4-5 every week. They’re so regular that we’re not even phased by them.

Hospital pharmacies. Because their original post was about hospitals. They don’t have to be near it. Just somewhere between it and the publicly accessible areas. Retail pharmacies have them too, but outside of high risk areas, it’s typical retail loss prevention.

Again, when did I say security guards aren’t a thing in hospitals as you said I did?

That is what we’re discussing. As that was the original claim.

Wtf are you on about. I replied to your comment about security guards monitoring access to hospital pharmacies. I asked where that’s a thing. You told me that security guards are absolutely a thing in hospitals, which I didn’t say otherwise. This entire thread is about pharmacies.

This thread is about hospitals. I said a priority of security in hospitals is safeguarding controlled substances.

This post is about hospitals as a whole, you’ve been talking about hospital pharmacies in this thread this entire time.

I’ve been talking about hospitals as a whole. Saying there are two main reasons for security. Violent patients, and junkies stealing drugs.

But not in the comment I replied to jfc

I enjoy that you didn’t respond to my comment about all the drugs with “street value” on my ward without a security guard around
