The Dorchester Penitentiary is a medium security prison in Dorchester, N.B.
Over $13,000 worth of drugs have been seized at Dorchester Penitentiary.
Staff members confiscated over 26 grams of oxycodone last month from the medium security unit.
Correctional Service of Canada says a number of tools are used to prevent drugs from entering its institutions, including scanners and drug-detector dogs.
They help to search buildings, personal property, inmates and visitors.
