Audit Faults Rehab Pharmacy at State Center
DANIELS AP The long time pharmacist for the state's main rehabilitation center routinely lost track of drugs dispensed but not used by patients during two of the last three years. The Division of Rehabilitation Services pharmacist never accounted for drugs left at the Institute facility after patient discharge, largely from local pharmacies and Medicaid patients. Thedford Shanklin said if you don't report it you don't have to account for it as auditors outlined their review covering July 2001 to June 2003 at Glade Springs Resort.
