@coastalcurr3nts: A Norfolk nurse has admitted to stealing powerful pain medication intended for patients, according to federal prosecutors. Prosecutors say 56-year-old Michelle Kollmar used patients’ personal information to access hospital medication machines and obtain painkillers.

Lane-aaa :

She should get treatment and be given another chance to be a nurse.

prettypetty02 :

oohhh so she's the reason for all of the new cameras in the med rooms.

jai10374 :

Patients were harmed. She took meds that were ment for patients who had pain. If meds were taken out using a patients info then when that patient needs meds they can't get it.

Jessie Conroy French :

where was this?

This happens a lot in groups homes!

MarisMcGarry :

As a teenager, I used to look up obituaries and would call pharmacies until we found said patients pills. Santa Barbara is a small place. Terrible

SJ :

One time when I was at the hospital after surgery I was supposed to get pain meds every two hours and three times it was saline. I know this because 1. The taste of salt water and 2. It was a stronger meds you can feel it/pain would subside. I tried to tell them somthing was off but they just thought my pain was so bad it just don’t effect me enough.

this happens a lot...when clinicians divert meds, they usually pull the drugs from a Pyxsis for themselves and then for the patient. Its usually discovered because the pharmacy counts will be off and the patients get over charged...most clinicians do not know how easily it is identified and typically hospitals will allow the theft to happen enough to completely bury them. Additionally, the state of VA requires clinicians to go thru intensive therapy, drug test twice a week, and petition the board after 5 years to get their license back. Sincerely, former hospital admin
