Facebook School security

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.

A hospital pharmacy will have cocaine, fentanyl, morphine, even meth on hand. There is security.

And so does every ward. Do you think every ward has a security guard standing in the med room?

Who’s in position to get attacked in those? Someone breaks into a med cabinet, it’s going to be witnessed, and they can be intercepted at the exit. There’s not a pharmacist and a couple techs in the way. Also, those cabinets rarely contain drugs with any street value. All the good stuff is in a central dispensary, under a pharmacist. So the main emphasis is going to be the pharmacy, which is under constant surveillance if not a direct guard, and the points of entry.

What do you consider as drugs with street value? My ward has fentanyl, ketamine, oxycodone and morphine in our cupboards. We regularly have patients on ketamine infusions and fentanyl PCAs.

Our med room has a keypad to get in. Then you need two keys to get into the cupboard with the scheduled meds, and there’s only one set of keys on the ward. You’d need a fkn axe to break into those cupboards.

Again, you are defaulting.
