Ensure that residents are free from significant medication errors.
Level of Harm - Actual harm
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
interview and record review the facility failed to ensure a resident was free of significant medication errors
for 1 of 3 residents (R1) reviewed for medication errors in the sample of 8. This failure resulted in R1
experiencing iatrogenic hypotension which required hospitalization from 2/2/26 through 2/9/26.The surveyor
confirmed by observation, interview and record review that the deficient practice occurred on 2/2/26 and
was corrected on 2/2/26 prior to the start of this survey, and was therefore Past Noncompliance.The
findings include:R1's face sheet showed she was a [AGE] year-old female, admitted to the facility on [DATE]
with diagnoses to include cellulitis of right lower limb, cellulitis of left lower limb, sepsis, anemia in chronic
kidney disease, hypertensive heart and chronic kidney disease, acute pulmonary edema, paroxysmal atrial
fibrillation, chronic congestive heart failure, and venous insufficiency. R1's admission Assessment showed
she was alert to person and time. R1's Initial Nursing assessment dated [DATE] showed she is alert and
oriented to person and place and confused at times. R4's face sheet showed she was admitted to the
facility 1/26/26 with diagnoses to include gastroparesis, chronic kidney disease, mixed hyperlipidemia,
hypertensive chronic kidney disease, nonrheumatic aortic valve insufficiency, atherosclerotic heart disease,
peripheral vascular disease, and acute kidney failure. On 2/10/26 at 9:44 AM, V10 (R1's daughter) said, My
mom was admitted to the facility on [DATE] after she was treated at the hospital for cellulitis in her legs. She
was there Saturday and Sunday and then on Monday, 2/2, I was called by [the acute care hospital] telling
me that they had her there. They told me that she had been given her medicine and also another resident's
medicine and she was in ‘shock'. They had to give her some intravenous medications really quick to bring
her blood pressure up. The hospital told me she had been given 4 different blood pressure lowering
medications. [the facility] never has told me about the drugs. I asked my mom and she said she
remembered sitting at the table and then they gave her some medicine. She said it was around lunchtime
so 11ish. Then she said the room got black and she couldn't remember anything after that. [The acute care
hospital] told me poison control was involved. She went to the emergency room on the 2/2 and then
discharged yesterday (2/9/26) to [another long-term care facility]. She was in ICU (Intensive Care Unit) from
2/2/26 through 2/4/26 because they were administering a medication that they said can only be given in the
ICU. On 2/4/26 she was transferred to another floor and then discharged on 2/9/26. I have her discharge
paperwork from the hospital it says her diagnoses was Iatrogenic Hypotension (low blood pressure that
occurs as a result of medical treatment or intervention, often due to. medication effects) . R1's 2/2/26
Nursing Note entered at 2:02 PM showed, Resident was received at the start of the shift in bed, clean,
comfortable, and without signs or symptoms of distress. During morning medication pass, resident was
seated in chair and presented without complaints or observable concerns. At approximately 10:00, a
nursing assessment was completed. Resident assessment findings were within normal limits and
consistent with documented baseline. Scheduled morning medications were administered per physician
orders.

No immediate adverse reactions were observed. Later in the shift, resident was observed seated in
wheelchair at the nurse's station leaning to the left side, which was not consistent with baseline
presentation. Immediate nursing assessment was performed. Vital signs were obtained and noted to be
outside of the residents established baseline parameters. Due to a cute change in condition, emergency
medical services were activated via 911 for urgent evaluation and transport. Resident was transferred by
EMS (emergency medical services) without further observed decline at the time of departure. Incident
referred for administrative and clinical review. R1's February 2026 eMAR (electronic Medication
Administration Record) showed she received Bumetanide 1 mg (diuretic used to treat fluid retention
associated with congestive heart failure).R4's February 2026 eMAR (electronic Medication Administration
Record) showed the following medications scheduled to be administered at 9:00 AM: Venlafaxine 225 mg
(antidepressant), Furosemide 20 mg (diuretic), Carvedilol 25 mg (blood pressure medication), Entresto
97-103 mg (blood pressure medication), Procardia 60 mg (blood pressure medication), aspirin 325 mg,
Clopidogrel Bisulfate 75 mg (antiplatelet medication) . R4's 2/2/26 Nurses Note entered at 1:14 PM showed,
Resident came to nurse's station questioning her am (morning) medications. Vitals were obtained, resident
stated she didn't want her medications and requested to discharge today.R4's Weights and Vitals Tab
showed a blood pressure obtained at 7:42 AM on 2/2/26 of 95/60. This blood pressure was then struck out
as inaccurate documentation at 12:22 PM. On 2/10/26 at 1:25 PM, V9 LPN (Licensed Practical Nurse) said,
First of all I apologize for whatever happened, that day I was doing morning medications, [R1] was new to
the facility, I checked the picture in the system, it looked like her, I went up and asked her if her name was
[R4's Name] and she nodded yes, I asked her about pain, how she was doing, and she said her day was
going good. Her blood was normal, so I didn't give her two of blood pressure pills, I don't remember the
name of the medications I didn't give. After that, sometime passed and the other patient [R4] came and
asked about her medications. I then realized I might have given other resident (R1) the wrong medications.
I called the Director of Nursing and stayed with R1] and checked her vitals. I don't know which medications I
held. She was alert and talking to me before and when I checked her again, she was confused. I called the
Assistant Director of Nursing right away and the other nurse was with me. I was trying to talk to her. She
was responding by nodding her head, we were trying to get her blood pressure, but I don't remember what
the numbers were. It was very low. I'm a new nurse. They had me do training with pharmacy and again with
the staff. They said I'm safe to pass medications. my DON went through the training with me again. The
statement provided by the facility from V9 LPN dated 2/2/26 showed, [V9] went to [R1] who was sitting near
nurse's station in wheelchair, verified verbally by asking [R1] if her name was [R4] in which [R1] said yes
and nodded yes as well. Checked vitals around 7:30-7:40 AM at this time [V9] noted BP was lower than
parameter when she went back and checked the eMAR for [R4]. After preparing medications, she went
back to patient and administered the medication with no issues. Around 10:15 AM [V9] realized another
resident hadn't gotten her medication yet but medications were not in the cart, she alerted another nurse
that she mistakenly gave patient [R1] medication that was supposed to go to patient [R4]. Both nurses
immediately assessed [R1] and noted [R1] to be hypotensive, 911 was called, medical director was present
during this and also assessed patient with orders to send out.On 2/10/26 at 11:54 AM, V5 RN (Registered
Nurse) said, I just got done with all of my medications. [R1] was my last patient I saw. I gave [R1] her
medication last. Then another resident came up and started arguing with [V9-LPN] saying that she didn't
receive her medications. I noticed that my patient was the only one that had been in that area. I went to
assess [R1], and her blood pressure was around 64/40 something. Her head was slumped to the side and
her pulse was so faint that I couldn't get her bp

with a manual blood pressure cuff. When the paramedics got there, I asked them what they got for a blood
pressure, and it was 55/30 something if I remember right. I had called 911 immediately as soon as I got that
blood pressure because I assumed she was the one who got the other resident's medications and [R1]
didn't receive anything from me that would do that to her. she was confused and talking off the wall. In
report I got that she was alert and oriented x 2. By the time I got her blood pressure, she was not alert at
all. Very lethargic but she was responsive, just inappropriate responses. I was talking to the paramedics
when they got there, and I told them she received some kind of medication because the other nurse said
she got the two patients confused. I asked to see [R4's] medication list to see what [R1] was given, and she
was given blood pressure medications. I wrote out a quick list and sent with the EMS in the case the
doctors there would need to see that. Immediately after this, they did in-servicing and they continued it
throughout that day. On 2/10/26 at 10:38 AM, V1 (Administrator) said, . In this situation, [V9] has been a
nurse for about a year. We had a new patient admitted over the weekend. She went to the resident and
asked her, using the name, and [R1] responded back appropriately. She gave her the medications and
30-45 seconds later, [R4] came and asked when she was going to get her medications. she immediately
notified the DON or ADON, they stopped, assessed the patient, and sent out 911. She held some of the
blood pressure medications, she gave one of the meds that was able to be given with her blood pressure
being in the parameters. When [V3 DON] comes in she will bring in the info, she can tell you for sure what
she was given. We know exactly the medications that were given because they were checked off in the
MAR for the resident who should have received them. (R4's eMAR showed all medications as refused by
R4. Nothing was documented as being given.On 2/10/26 at 10:47 AM, V3 DON (Director of Nursing) said, I
was alerted by the nurses that [V9 LPN] had administered the medication to the wrong patient. They
assessed the patient and because her blood pressure was lower, they sent her out . the bp was the reason
why she was sent out. Immediately, we checked the MAR (medication administration record) to see what
the medication she was given was. We called the doctor right away; the Medical Director was here in the
facility at the time and she was made aware of the incident. We started in-servicing right away. We asked
the nurse what happened, she pretty much said that she asked the resident if her name was the other
resident's name and she nodded that yes, she was. She said she looked at the picture in the MAR and it
looked like the resident. [R1] received [R4's] medications. R1 received venlafaxine, furosemide, aspirin,
Entresto, iron, omeprazole, oxybutynin, and Procardia. She also received her own medications that day, she
takes Bumex. She doesn't take blood pressure medications.On 2/10/26 at 2:06 PM, V11 (Medical Director)
said, There was a medication error, It happened right in front of me actually. I was rounding at that time. The
patient was kind of confused, nurse tried checking blood pressure, I tried checking her blood pressure. I
was not able to get the blood pressure because it was very feeble. When the paramedics arrived, I think
they were able to get one. It was a pretty low hypotensive number. I talked to them that morning regarding
that this should not have happened. The facility's policy and procedure dated 03/2021 showed, Medication
Administration: General Guidelines. Policy: To ensure that medications are administered safety as
prescribed. All medications shall be administered as prescribed by personnel authorized to do so in
accordance with standard practice and current regulations. The resident is identified prior to administration
