Meds Stored in Room

For those that store medications in patients rooms:

1) Who delivers the medications to the patients room?
2) Who removes the medications from the patients room upon discharge?
3) Do you store medications in patients rooms on all units or just units with high volume medication administration (i.e. ICU's/Oncology)

Thank you,

Randi
