Just wondered how you deal with this issue where personnel need secure storage and may need emergency access to medicines.
Thanks,

I haven't dealt with this personally, but I do know that in the US we have some OSHA regulations that state separate facilities must be provided. That can be interpreted as a small refrigerator with a padlock.
Can apply to medicines but also "motherly" liquids that you wouldn't necessarily want stored next to your sandwich.

Thanks. I think a small dedicated fridge, with lock and signage is a good idea.
You can get really small ones for lowish cost.

Where possible have a dedicated first aid room that is locked with only authorised first aiders and management having a key. Where possible the dispensing of medicines should be avoided. Where not possible medicine stocks and their usage should be logged.

I keep my insulin in a small fridge in a labelled plastic food container (sandwich box) in the management kitchen fridge. I bring in my correct dosage each day.
Never had any problem with an auditor
