A review of the facility's policy titled Self-Administration of Medication at Bedside (revised [DATE]) revealed: The resident may request to keep medications at bedside for self-administration in accordance with Resident Rights. Criteria must be met to determine if a resident is both mentally and physically capable of self-administering medications and to keep accurate documentation of these actions. Procedure: The eMAR must identify that meds are self-administered and the medication nurse will need to follow-up with resident as to documentation and storage of medication during each med pass. If kept at bedside, the medication must be kept in a locked drawer. . FORM CMS-2567 (02/99) Previous Versions Obsolete Event ID: Facility ID: 105917 If continuation sheet Page 2 of 2
