As it did in 2016, Sharp HealthCare, the hospital's nonprofit parent company, acknowledged in a statement Tuesday that it installed the motion-activated cameras and computer monitors, saying they were meant to catch the thief or thieves responsible for the disappearance of a powerful anesthetic from drug carts.
"We sincerely regret that our efforts to ensure medication security may have caused any distress to those we serve," it said, adding that images taken by the cameras"were used for this particular case only and have not been used again.
