On my 2nd week of orientation, I saw this happen under 3 different nurses.
The patient's medication packet was empty and the trainer pulled the drug from another patient's medication packet to satisfy the MAR; because as we all say, if it's not documented, it was not done.
The 4th incident was a patient's NPH, no NPH bottle, and the 4th nurse said to me, "I know this is wrong but this is how you do it, take this NPH (another patient's NPH) and draw what you need." I refused and asked for the emergency kit, and it was also empty.
What would you do? Where to report other than LTC Ombudsman? This is criminal and they have to be punished.
