Among the incidents reported occurred on an overnight shift Jan. 19 when Krisher-Behm was working and a patient received two “additional, unscheduled maximum doses of oxycodone” in response to reported shoulder pain, the complaint said.

Nurses who checked later indicated the patient reported no pain, “had not had any considerable pain for several days” and was awake and alert, the complaint said.

Another incident involved Krisher-Behm drawing 1.2 milliliters of morphine “beyond what she reported she administered to the patient.” A search of Krisher-Behm’s home January 21 found evidence of two missing bottles of at least 66 15mg oxycodone pills that were supposed to be transferred with a patient from the nursing home to the Veterans Home and she had assisted with the transfer, the complaint said.
