Why It Matters for Diversion Programs
This entry comes from a primary source rather than a federal enforcement release, and it is recorded as reported: Alleged diversion of IV Dilaudid: logged out IV Dilaudid but did not administer it for more than an hour; logged out IV Dilaudid but did not waste it for more than an hour; logged out IV Dilaudid and put it in a pocket; documented administering IV Dilaudid when it was not administered; administered IV Dilaudid but did not document it for approximately two days; failed to document a pain assessment; carried medications in pockets and failed to waste controlled substances at the time of removal from an automated dispensing cabinet.. Board and news records are a lagging indicator - by the time a licensing authority or a reporter learns of a diversion, the diversion was normally detected internally first, which makes each entry a signal that inventory reconciliation, waste observation or dispensing oversight failed earlier.
