**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
observation, staff and resident interviews, medical record review, and facility policy review, the facility failed
to appropriately store resident's medication by leaving medication at bedside for one (Resident #4) of three
residents sampled for unsecured medication. Resident #4 who had not been assessed for
self-administration of medication was observed taking medications that had been left on his overbed table.
These medications were also accessible to other residents who should not have access to them.
The findings include:
During an interview with Resident #4 on 04/23/2025 at 10:22 AM, the resident picked up a medicine cup
from his overbed table containing multiple pills in it. When asked if the pills were his morning medications
he stated, yes and then took them.
A medical record review for Resident #4 indicated he was admitted to the facility on [DATE] and had a Brief

required to pass a medication administration competency as well as being monitored while administering
medications. The DON stated the entire nursing staff will be re-educated on the medication administration
policy immediately and the unit manager will observe nursing during medication administration times. When
asked about a policy for self-administration of medications or assessments of residents for
self-administration, she stated they did not have an assessment and would look for the policy.
Residents Affected - Few
On 04/23/2025 at 12:32 PM, an interview was conducted with Employee D, Registered Nurse (RN). She
stated she had worked at the facility for 2 years. When asked about leaving medication in Resident #4's
room, she stated she was attempting to get therapy to assist her in replacing the resident's mattress. She
got distracted and left the medication on his overbed table. She stated her normal procedure is to stay with
the resident, assess for pain or changes and watch them take all of the medications before leaving the
room.
On 04/23/2025 at 12:50 PM, an interview was conducted with the Assistant Director of Nursing (ADON).
When asked about residents' self-medicating, she stated they have a policy for this. When asked if they
completed an assessment to ensure the resident is capable of self-medicating, she stated, No, we look at
the BIMS score and we know the residents.
A review of the facility's policy titled Self-Administration of Meds (revised 3/01/2021) read:
Standard: It is the standard of this facility that residents who wish to self-administer their medications may
do so, if it is determined that they are capable of doing so.
Guidelines:
1. As part of the overall evaluation, the staff and practitioner will assess or evaluate each resident's mental
and physical abilities to determine whether a resident is capable of self-administering medications.
