Hi.

I am trying to do some research on laws r/t nurses.

Where would be a good place to look to find information about laws broken; specifically related to nurses stealing narcotics from patients?

Thank you in advance!

Check out your states board of nursing for the nurse practice act.

Thank you so much...I have been sitting here struggling with where to look for a couple of hours. I had a "duh" moment.

Thanks again!

you could also try to look up or ask your manager about your hospital's policy on reporting things like that and what actions are taken/options available for the accused.
