MEDFORD, Ore. – Sources say several Asante Rogue Regional Medical Center patients are dead and police are now conducting a criminal investigation.
NBC5 News broke the story Friday night (12/29/2023), that police were investigating at least one patient death at Rogue Regional Medical Center.
They say a handful of patients died; some say nine, others ten as a result of infections at the hospital.
They say it was caused by a nurse switching medication with tap water.
Multiple sources say an Asante Rogue Regional Medical Center nurse injected multiple patients with tap water in an attempt to cover up their misuse of the hospital’s supply of pain medication, specifically fentanyl.
We’re told inside RRMC’s intensive care unit, as many as nine or ten people developed infections and died.
Our sources tell us the tap water, which is not sterile, led to multiple infections of pseudomonas. »
