Cincinnati Children's Hospital Medical Center is reviewing security procedures after Mom dies and father is arrested after injecting heroin in their 7-month old daughter's hospital room, according to an article on the Cincinnati.com website.
Wesley Landers was found unresponsive in the bathroom with a heroin syringe in his arm, needles strewn on sink, and a loaded and chambered handgun in his pants pocket.
It is unclear if there are measures in place to prevent people from carrying firearms into Children's Hospital, the article said.
In a statement, hospital officials said: "We have trained and experienced security personnel at all of our campuses. We have a Cincinnati Police officer at the main location 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. We are always reevaluating our security measures to ensure the safety of our patients."
