A worker from St. Joseph’s Hospital is facing a pair of charges in connection with alleged thefts from a dispensary system, according to Hamilton police.
Investigators say the discovery was made after quality control audits alerted staff to discrepancies in their automatic system.
The police probe determined the dispensary had been accessed multiple times between Aug. 17 and Dec. 9, 2021, without a doctor’s written order.
