Storage of controlled substances

Looking for information on storage of patient own controlled substance that are not to be used as inpatient but no one is available to take them home. Also looking for a process for the same but for non controlled. What are other facilities doing to track, store and maintain these meds until the patient is discharged and they can be returned?
