Dropped Pills On The Floor

Upon finding said pill no matter where in the bed they found it they always popped it back into their mouths.

Dropped pills on the floor.

I have literally pulled pills out of the toilet and swallowed them after throwing up. I dropped nearly all of my lexapro on the floor in my dorm room kitchen which is simply filthy. Wtf man seriously you re taking drugs and worried about the little microbes in the carpet floor. You have a good sense of humor stargazer i am still laughing after reading this post and your previous one.

If you drop it pick it up and keep right on counting. If you find it on the floor strongpak it. Cvs s loose pill disposal process although i swear my techs actively look for loose pills for me to have to strongpak. Y know i ve never had a patient who wanted a pill that was dropped on the floor but have had ones that dropped a pill into the bedding.

You re free to document whatever you like but i don t think it was necessary in this case. That doesn t make them mentally ill. A bathroom floor would be a no. The pills were picked up the from the floor and they disposed of them in the sharps container.

Just today i identified and labeled i know a hundred or more loose pills and still have more to go. So there we go searching through sheets and blankets and gown. Due to the high cost of the pills the pharmacist immediately contacted their supervisor who in turn contacted the head physician of the facility. Eat it man harrisment said.

The nurses then informed the pharmacist on duty that a refill of the medication would be necessary.
