What is the name of your state? South Carolina
I have a question: I have a co-worker who is 20 weeks pregnant. She is on Lortab, neurontin, Ambien just to name a few. She is working 12 hour shifts in the ER while on these drugs and when I spoke to my supervisor about the fact that she takes these during the shift and has fallen asleep on duty, she told me that they are prescribed and so there is nothing she can do about it. Is it legal for her to be doing patient care while under the influence of these medications? I spoke to HR about it and It was infered by them that I obviuosly have something against this girl and I should leave her alone. I am afraid she is going to hurt someone.
