  1. Im pretty sure my mom did this many years ago, around early 2000s. I was around 13 and very nieve. I didn't even know what heroin was when I found her needles. She was a great person and a wonderful nurse before she got addicted to what started as pain pills, that lead to heroin. She got hurt on the job, herniated discs in her back and had 3 back surgeries. Nobody warned her of the possibility of becoming addicted. But again that was late 90s, early 2000s… Back in 2012, i was in rehab with an RN who admitted to stealing iv pain medication. It happens more than people think. Addiction doesnt judge!

  2. My grandchildren’s mother is doing this from her job. She’s been doing it for 3 years now. She feeds her families habits doing it. We have found pop out pages with facilities and patients names on them full of narcotics.

  3. People who want to work in specific fields usually do so for reasons.

    Nothing about working in a hospital is rewarding.

    Just like power lust police drunk on authority.

  4. I was falsely accused to the Board of Nursing. After over 5 years of dealing with the consequences of these lies, my case was closed on January 09, 2023. Now that I won my case I want to sue my accusers because now I can prove their lies. I wasn’t able to sue them when they first lied because I had an open case with the Board of Nursing. Now that I have won, I am told I cannot sue them because of statutes of limitation. I want to sue the Board of Nursing because I can prove they did not conduct an investigation prior to prosecuting me. In defending my innocence, I lost over 120k, lost my home, and my children no longer live with me. I had to create this video to expose my story and evidence that what I say is true. I not only want justice, but I also want the Board to be exposed so that this does not happen to another nurse or healthcare professional. Please take the time to view and share. My hopes are to find legal representation. I had to make this video because I cannot find an attorney in NM to take in this feat.

  5. I'm a patient and I think my night nurse is switching my pain medication out for a different one because when she gives it to me it's very bitter at least a nasty aftertaste or sometimes doesn't work at all and when other people give it to me it does not taste like that and it works

  6. happened to me once.I was at emergency room and the nurse brought me my prescription but tried to keep my opiate prescription. I had to start complaining about not getting anything for pain then she came back in with it. I had fell off a roof and she was going to keep my meds and send me home with tylenol and a 2 thousand dollar bill lol.

  7. I had a friend who WAS a nurse. She got caught stealing multiple pain meds from multiple patients. She lost her license. She did some jail time. I wrote her off after she asked me for money. I knew she still had a drug problem. I hope she is better today. I’m guessing she isn’t.

  8. This happens all so often. I unfortunately was in her shoes. And Le me tell ya this is when a woman is forced to either collapse or pull up her bootstraps and be fierce. People that you think you can trust are the very ones to assist with your demise.

  9. In Indonesia they injected patients with water (should be the mixture for injection) not for their addiction, but to sell to drug store for money, that's what I heard from my cousin that work in health industry. Don't get sick or there would be a chance we have to deal with this kind of nurse

  10. The way most do it ( I know several nurses from different states) is actually mostly "extra" stuff that gets stolen. Apparently things come in set does but they dont always use all of it. So the extra gets tossed. People take it. From what Ive heard from people in the field I can only assume you could stop it if you controlled the garbage even more intensely than they already do.

  11. Go see a psychiatrist for some benzodiazepines if you’re so stressed. Btw, I don’t know why that one stealing meds from the dead patients is that surprising.

  12. We have fingerprint, charge nurse runs a report before shift is over. If a drug isn’t scanned you better have the package. I’ve had to go thru trash more than once to prove the drug went to patient and not myself. In reality though I couldn’t take the drug and function! Not sure it’s as rampant as this report says or maybe they’ve just got better ways to keep track.

  13. Anyone can get addicted, ANYONE , all it take is one time and u want more . U have a surgery and boom 💥, you are a drug addict, a lot of doctors are addicted too , it’s a way of coping with high stress and anxiety and bunch other issues , which is what healthcare is these days – STRESS

  14. But…i have seen those "medicine room" , they arent allowd alone in, either, and there is camera, and two nurses have to go round, to deal out the drugs…
    At least,its like this in my country.
    And,how can a person bare with themself,if they steal painmedication, knowing that a person will suffer even more?
    Dont they have enough bad,the sick and also the old one's ?
    I dont get it. Why allow a system where they can cause the weakest to suffer!? Thats just tragic…
    So many paiful destiny's, just because someone who are strong and well, want to feel a "buzz"…

  15. It's not just nurses, when I use to sell drugs in California my best customers were doctors and lawyers. This really is a huge problem and it has been for decades and she's right, it's all hush-hush! I had nurses coming to me for cocaine and heroin literally crying when they couldn't afford the drugs, it was sad. I'm glad I'm not destroying people's lives anymore, I was young and stupid.

  16. I have seen addicts go back to school to get nursing qualifications just to access their drugs of choice easier…. I think there needs to be a lot more background checking or even psyche reports on any persons at all that have more access to these drugs than the general public…

  17. I screamed in Agony only when the pm shift nurse was faking giving administering post op morphine right after radical hysterectomy. Now hospitals are poised to STOP TREATING ALL PAIN.
