At the time of the initial incident, Respondent was employed as a Registered Nurse at a hospital in Richardson, Texas, and had been in that position for ten (10) months.

It was on or about March 3, 2014, through March 23, 2014, the RN withdrew five and a half (5.5) MG of Hydromorphone from the Pyxis medication dispensing system for patients, but failed to document, or completely and accurately document the administration of the medications in the patients’ Medication Administration Record (MAR) and/or Nurse’s Notes. The RN’s conduct could have contributed to the injury of the patients, in that subsequent caregivers would rely on his documentation to further medicate the patients.

And then on or about March 3, 2014, the RN withdrew five and a half (5.5) MG of Hydromorphone from the Pyxis medication dispensing system for patients but failed to follow the facility’s policy and procedures for wastage of any of the unused portions of the medications.

In response, the RN admits to documentation issues due to being an improperly trained new course in a fast-paced environment. Respondent admits to wasting late in his shift from being so busy during his shift but denies not wasting medication.
