Tyler is returning from his lunch break. As he passes through the reception area, he notices a small, bright pink pill lying on the floor near the counter. There are several people in the reception/waiting area, including a few small children. What should Tyler do?

It is important to dispose of medications properly, especially if they are not yours and you do not know what they are for. Picking it up and asking if anyone has lost a pill could potentially lead to someone claiming it and taking it without knowing what it is or if it is safe for them to take. As for calling housekeeping, that is not necessary for just one small pill, and lecturing the waiting patients is not appropriate either. Therefore, the best course of action is to dispose of the medication properly, out of the reach of small children.
