**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
observation, interview, and record review, the facility failed to ensure medication was administered
according to the facility ' s policies and procedures (P&P) for one of three sample resident (Resident 1)
when Keppra (medication used to treat and prevent seizures—an abnormal electrical activity in the
brain that temporarily affects consciousness, muscle control, and behavior) was not administration to
Resident 1.
This failure potentially has caused Resident 1, who is clinically compromised, being transferred to Hospital
for Seizure evaluation on May 3, 2024.
Findings:
During the review of Resident 1 ' s admission record (a document that gives a summary of resident's
information), the document indicated Resident 1 was admitted to the facility on [DATE], with a diagnosis
that included Epilepsy (a brain condition where a person experience recurring seizures), and Hemiplegia (a
condition that causes paralysis or weakness on one side of the body).
During a review of Resident 1 record titled Change in Condition Evaluation, dated May 3, 2024, indicated
Resident 1 had a tonic clonic seizure (a type of seizure with sudden stiffening followed by rapid shaking
movements) activity lasting 3 minutes, Resident 1 was unresponsiveness, 911 called. Resident was
transferred to Hospital.
During a concurrent telephone interview and record review, on November 15, 2024, at 10:28 AM, with the
Minimum Data Set Coordinator (MDS Coordinator 1), Resident 1 ' s physician orders and Medication
Administration Record (MAR) May 2024 was reviewed. Levetiracetam (Keppra) Oral Tablet 750 mg to be
given one tablet by mouth two times a day for seizures. The MDS Coordinator 1 acknowledged that the
Medication Administration Record (MAR) showed Keppra was not given on May 2, 2024, at 9:00 AM. MDS
Coordinator 1 stated on May 2, 2024, Keppra was not given and the nurse cited number 10, which stands
for Other, as the reason for not administering it, but she was unable to locate the explanation of Other on
the record. She stated that when a nurse uses 10 (other) as an excuse for not administering medicine, the
nurse should explain what other implies in the chart.
During telephone interview on November 15, 2024, at 11:04 AM, with License Vocational Nurse (LVN 1),
LVN 1 stated she was Resident 1 medication nurse on May 2, 2024. She further explains that Keppra was
not giving in the morning because the medication was not available pending shipment. LVN 1
Acknowledged that medication should be ordered before it ran out. She added per policy medication should
be ordered within 7 days before the last dose.
