Implement gradual dose reductions(GDR) and non-pharmacological interventions, unless contraindicated,
prior to initiating or instead of continuing psychotropic medication; and PRN orders for psychotropic
medications are only used when the medication is necessary and PRN use is limited.
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
interview, medical record review, and facility P&P review, the facility failed to ensure one of two sampled
residents (Resident 1) was provided the non-pharmacological interventions for the use of psychotropic
medication (medication that affects the mind, emotions, and behavior). This failure had the potential to
result in the unnecessary use of psychotropic medications for Resident 1.
Findings:
Review of the facility's P&P titled Antipsychotic Medication Use (undated) showed for enduring psychiatric
conditions, antipsychotic medications will not be used unless behavioral symptoms are not sufficiently
relieved by non-pharmacological interventions. The staff will observe, document, and report to the attending
physician information regarding the effectiveness of any interventions, including antipsychotic medications.
Closed medical record review for Resident 1 was initiated on 3/11/25. Resident 1 was admitted to the
facility on [DATE] and discharged on 2/18/25, to the acute care hospital.
Review of Resident 1's progress notes showed the following:
- dated 2/12/25, Resident 1 returned from the acute care hospital with a new physician's order to administer
Zyprexa (antipsychotic medication) 2.5 mg tablet every six hours as needed.
- dated 2/14/25, the physician provided anew order for Zyprexa 2.5 mg four times a day.
Review of Resident 1's Order Summary Report for February 2025 showed a physician's order dated
2/14/25, to administer Zyprexa 2.5 mg tablet by mouth four times a day for psychosis manifested by
episodes of striking out.
Review of Resident 1's plan of care showed a care plan problem dated 2/12/25, addressing Resident 1's
use of the Zyprexa medication. However, the care plan interventions did not include the
non-pharmacological interventions for the use of the above medication.
Review of Resident 1's MAR for February 2025 showed the following monitoring for the resident's episodes
of psychosis as evidenced by striking out:
- On 2/13/25, Resident 1 had one episode during the day shift, six episodes during the evening

Residents Affected - Some
However, there was no documented evidence for the non-pharmacological interventions were provided
related to the use of the antipsychotic medication for Resident 1.
On 3/13/25 at 1145 hours, an interview and concurrent closed medical record review was conducted with
the DON. The DON stated Resident 1 returned from the acute care hospital with a physician's order dated
2/12/25, to administer Zyprexa every six hours as needed. The DON verified the physician had ordered on
2/14/25, for Zyprexa 2.5mg four times a day for psychosis manifested by episodes of striking out. When
asked, the DON was unable to find documentation to show thenon-pharmacological interventions were
provided when Resident 1 had the behavioral episodes of striking out. The DON verified Resident 1's care
plan for the Zyprexa medication did not include the non-pharmacological interventions.
