Drogues anesthésie

i work in a hospital now and it’s veeeeeery different dispensing scheduled drugs—i had no idea what it would be like until i started working. every single controlled substance in the pharmacy (as well as propofol, even though it technically isn’t a scheduled drug—that’s just the policy at my hospital, not a legal thing) is in a giant dispensing safe. to access the contents of the safe, you have to log in and/or scan your fingerprint and basically tell the computer everything that you’re doing and why and tell it exactly which drug you plan to remove (or it will tell you which to remove). the cabinet will then unlock itself and you will be required to back-count the entire stock of the drug, report then number, then tell it how many you plan to remove from the cabinet (or it will tell you—again, it depends on the task you are completing). you will then remove the drug and close the door of the cabinet, which will lock itself again once you finish the task. everything is also being filmed, and unlike in retail, ANYONE who has pharmacy access can use the narcotics safe, which is usually just technicians because pharmacists are typically not doing the grunt work of filling scripts or restocking the patient units. this is very similar to the ones we use at the hospital, it’s called an omnicell:
