JAKARTA - Participants of the Specialist Doctors Education Program (PPDS) at Hasan Sadikin Hospital (RSHS) Bandung are no longer given direct access to drugs.
This policy was implemented as an anticipatory measure to strengthen controls and prevent abuse, following the disclosure of a criminal case involving one of the resident doctors.
RSHS President Director, Rachim Dinata Marsidi, explained that the drug distribution system had been completely changed. "Currently, PPDS is not allowed to take its own drugs. The treatment is fully carried out by nurses, and supervision is carried out strictly," he said in Bandung, as quoted by ANTARA.
This system change follows an incident of rape by Priguna Anugerah Pratama, a resident doctor in the field of anesthesia, who takes advantage of access to anesthetics to paralyze his victims. The user is suspected of collecting remaining drugs from daily medical practice.

According to Rachim, the perpetrator deliberately did not give all doses of medicine to the patient, but instead set aside some for personal gain.
"It's true, drugs are taken from the hospital environment. He only gives three-quarters of the dose he should, and from some patients, he can collect one full dose," he said.
Meanwhile, from the results of a police investigation, the Director of General Criminal Investigation (Dirreskrimum) of the West Java Police, Kombes Pol. Surawan, stated that Priguna self-crafted the drugs he used, without following applicable standard operating procedures (SOP).
"He took medicine from the hospital, made his own recipe, and its use was far from the correct medical standards," said Surawan. He emphasized that negligence in the surveillance system needed to be addressed immediately.
The police also urged hospital management to conduct a thorough evaluation of the distribution system and security of sensitive drugs, especially those that could be misused. Evaluation of the surveillance system is very important so that similar incidents do not happen again," said Surawan.
