This is strange. Dr. Moore today told me that he's convinced that somebody is stealing the meds needed for a chem nap. "It's slow and gradual, but they are disappearing - for maybe 2 weeks", he said.

I asked him to redo his inventory. There could've been a miscount I reasoned.

"I already did that", he snapped. "I did it last week too. Last week we were short 3 doses and this week we're short another 7."

"Why would someone steal them?", I asked. "It would be like stealing Aspirin. Just ask and you always give them."

"Almost always", he corrected.

"Could someone on your staff not be keeping proper records?" I was having a difficult time believing someone would steal something that's so readily available.

"You see that pile over there?" He pointed to a group of small needles stacked in a basket. They were labeled with a long latin word. Underneath it in smaller print were the words "sleep inducers". "Last night, I counted. There were 8 of them. When I came in this morning there were only 5. I asked my night staff if they gave away any of them. None of them did."

I sighed. "Has anyone asked for any that didn't get 'em?", I asked.

"No one".

I told him to leave the basket full of sleep inducers and tomorrow I'll have Miller set up a security camera. That way we can figure out who the culprit is and find out what the hell his motive could possibly be.
