This amendment would allow technicians to deliver narcotics to the ER, ICU, etc in a timely manner and not have to pull nurses away from caring for their patients.  Technicians are a key role in the pharmacy and having them return to the pharmacy in a timely manner instead of trying to search down a nurse to check their narcotics would allow them to come back and assist the pharmacist(s).  This would be benificial to all!  The narcotics are double check by a pharmacist before leaving the pharmacy and the acudose machines also have reports to assure the proper amount of narcotics were loaded.
