Keep residents' personal and medical records private and confidential.
Level of Harm - Minimal harm
or potential for actual harm
Based on observations and staff interviews, the facility failed to ensure that two (Residents #85 and #5) of
three residents observed during medication administration, from a total sample of 27 residents, were
provided privacy during medical treatment.
Residents Affected - Few
The findings include:
On 2/22/22 at 11:00 AM, Registered Nurse (RN) A was observed performing blood glucose monitoring for
Resident #85. RN A obtained the necessary equipment, entered the resident's room, and left the door open
after verifying the resident's identity. The nurse pricked the resident's finger for blood and obtained a blood
glucose result without pulling the resident's curtain to provide privacy. RN A stated the blood sugar was 211
and the resident required insulin. After hygiene, the nurse obtained 2 units of insulin and went back to
Resident #85 with the door still open and the privacy curtain not pulled. The nurse administered the insulin
in the resident's left lower abdomen. When asked whether she provided privacy during the process, she
replied, I completely forgot about that.
On 2/22/22 at 11:45 AM, Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) B obtained the necessary equipment for blood
glucose monitoring and entered Resident #5's room. The nurse did not knock on the resident's door, did not
ask permission to enter, and left the door open after verifying the resident's identity. LPN B pricked the
resident's finger for blood and obtained a blood glucose result without pulling the resident's curtain to
provide privacy. Resident #5 was in the bed close to the door and could be observed from the hallway. LPN
B stated the blood sugar reading was 463. He added that the blood sugar was beyond the parameters and
the resident's physician would have to be contacted. He returned to the resident and stated LPN D/Unit
Manager contacted the physician and orders were given to administer 12 units of insulin and recheck the
resident's blood sugar after an hour. LPN B obtained the 12 units of insulin, entered the resident's room
without closing the door or pulling the curtain for privacy, and administered the insulin in the resident's left
upper arm.
During a medication administration observation on 2/23/21 at 9:07 AM, LPN C was observed entering
Resident #5's room without knocking on the door or requesting permission to enter. LPN C left the door
open, and did not pull the privacy curtain closed before administering medication to the resident.
In an interview on 2/23/22 at 9:30 AM, LPN C confirmed that she had not provided privacy to Resident #5
during medication administration.

Ensure medication error rates are not 5 percent or greater.
Level of Harm - Minimal harm
or potential for actual harm
Based on observations, record reviews, and staff interviews, the facility failed to ensure a medication error
rate of less than 5%, based on 2 errors with 35 opportunities for error, resulting in an error rate of 5.714%.
Residents Affected - Few
The findings include:
During a medication administration observation on 2/23/21 at 9:07 AM, Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) C
was observed obtaining medication for Resident #5. The nurse obtained and administered one tab of Lasix
20 milligrams (mg) ( medication to remove excess fluid ), and one tablet of glipizide 2 mg (medication to
help regulate blood sugar) to Resident #5.
A review of Resident #5's medical record, revealed that her current physician's orders included Glipizide 5
mg two tablets by mouth two times a day for diabetes, and Furosemide (Lasix) 20 mg two tablets by mouth
one time a day related to edema. (Copies obtained)
In an interview on 02/23/22 at 9:30 AM, LPN C confirmed that she had administered one Lasix pill and one
glipizide pill. When asked to review Resident #5's physician's orders, LPN C stated, I overlooked the order. I
needed to give 2 pills of Lasix and glipizide. She stated she would go back and administer the two
remaining pills to Resident #5.
A review of the facility's policy and procedure titled: Standards and Guidelines: Medication Administration
(Last revised on 01/01/2021), revealed the standards read, It will be the standard of this facility to
administer medication in a timely manner and as prescribed by the physician, unless otherwise clinically
indicated or necessitated by other circumstances, such as lack of availability of medication or refusal of
medication by the resident.
The guideline included:
2. The Director of Nursing services is responsible for the supervision and direction of all personnel with
medication administration and duties and functions.
5. Should a dosage seem excessive considering the resident's age and medical condition, or medication
orders seem to be unrelated to the resident 's current diagnosis or medical condition the person preparing
/administering the medication shall contact the resident's physician or the facility's Medical Director for
further instruction.
8. After successfully identifying the resident to receive medication administration, the individual
administering the medication should ensure that right medication , right dosage right time and right method
of administration are verified.
