F 0842 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Some assumed the dose withdrawn at 6:00 A.M. was given then but not documented on the MAR. Because the 6:00 A.M. dose was not documented she assumed a dose was given at 9:05 A.M. when withdrawn but it was documented late in the MAR at 11:59 A.M. (instead of at the time of administration) then a dose was given at 5:14 P.M. as indicated on the MAR. On 05/15/25 at 8:00 A.M., an oxycodone tablet was signed off on the controlled substance accountability sheet but not recorded on the MAR. The next dose was signed as administered at 1:13 P.M. which was closer than the ordered every eight hours. On 05/20/25 a dose of oxycodone was removed from the supply but not documented on the MAR as administered. Interview on 07/01/25 between 9:55 A.M. and 10:14 A.M. the DON stated she believed the discrepancies were documentation errors. One of nurses who did not document administration had worked seven days straight. This deficiency is an incidental finding discovered during the complaint investigation. 365152 Page 6 of 6
