Officials at Asante Rogue Regional Medical Center in Medford say they alerted police early last month that they believed a former employee had stolen medication.
Families of two patients - Samuel Allison, 36, who died in November 2022, and Barry Samsten, 74, who died in July - said hospital officials notified them that the deaths were due to infections resulting from their pain medication being replaced with non-sterile tap water, according to the report.
