Police in Florida accuse a former ICU nurse of stealing fentanyl from a critically ill patient’s IV infusion in June, according to reports. The nurse, now identified as a former worker at the facility, is charged with three felony counts related to the alleged incident.
One outlet reports that detectives reviewed footage showing the nurse manipulating protective caps on the IV equipment. Both accounts describe the same core allegation: fentanyl was removed or interfered with while administered to a patient in critical condition. Details on the investigation and specific charges are presented as stemming from police findings, including review of evidence gathered around the time of the incident.
