This is not how it works at all! You do mouth checks after giving any med! And the meds that have high abuse potential are usually crushed before administration. If an inmate is caught cheeking a med (hiding it in mouth/cup) the med will likely be discontinued by the facility doctor

I love that I never know what I'm walking into each day! It's like running my own entire hospital! You have your ER (acute care) you have your cardiac and chronic care patients, you have your ortho cases and you have lots of Mental Health! You just have a mix of everything! It keeps me on my toes. I also like the patient teaching- it's very rewarding- inmates don't always have the highest health literacy and it's empowering to be the one to teach them something!
