We had an LPN working in the Emergency Room at the hospital I worked at stealing 1/2 vials of demerol type drugs and mixing that with her cocaine and shooting up in the bathroom AT WORK! She got caught when she had a seizure in the bathroom they found her needle kit, otherwise they wouldn't have known. She died a month later at home in her bathtub shooting up drugs. How sad. Also had a Paramedic who used to steel 1/2 vials of demerol and shoot up between his toes, he looked like a very clean cut "Richie" type from happy days, go figure. We had another Paramedic stopping at an auto accident drunk with his little Paramedic kit and started an IV in a lady's neck who was dead at the scene, got his license yanked. These are human beings, we must remember.
