"The licensee Radiation Safety Officer (RSO) called the Florida Bureau of Radiation Control today, 9/9/21, to report a minor vehicle accident which occurred on Sunday afternoon, 9/5/21, around 1700 EDT, involving one of their Nuclear medicine drivers. The RSO indicated one of their pharmacists received a call on Sunday for a stat nuclear medicine delivery to Gulf Coast Hospital. The pharmacist's wife drove him in her personal vehicle to deliver the nuclear medicine but was involved in a minor vehicle accident on the way to deliver the meds. The RSO indicated the package was entirely intact with no breakage or leakage occurring. The pharmacy manager arrived on the scene to continue with the delivery while the pharmacist and his wife went to the hospital for evaluation. The Florida Bureau of Radiation Control is waiting for the police report and video surveillance from the pharmacy to complete the incident report."
