Based on medical record review, staff interviews, review of staff statement, and policy review, the facility failed to ensure a nurse observed a resident consume medications at the time of administration. Additionally, the facility failed to ensure the individual who removed medications from medication cart was the same individual who administered the medications to the resident. This affected one (#24) out of the three residents reviewed for medical administration. The facility census was 45.

Review of the medical record for Resident #24 revealed a Medication Administration Record (MAR) which had documentation to support Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) #100 signed the MAR on 12/20/24, 12/23/24, 12/24/24, 12/27/24, 12/28/24, 12/29/24, and 12/30/24 that she administered Resident #24's medications. Review of the medical record for Resident #24 revealed an Episodic event note, dated 12/14/24, which stated Resident #24's daughter accused LPN #100 of hitting the daughter in the arm. The root cause analysis stated Resident #24's daughter was attempting to stop LPN #100 from leaving Resident #24's room. Review of a statement by LPN #100, dated 12/15/24, stated the incident occurred on 12/14/24 at 6:00 P.M. after she observed Resident #24 had not taken the medications that LPN #100 had brought into the room at approximately 4:00-5:00 P.M. LPN #100 stated when she originally brought the medications into the room, Resident #24 was in the bathroom so the LPN #100 left the medications in Resident #24's room and trusted she would take them. Interview on 04/23/25 at 12:25 P.M. with LPN #100 confirmed she left medications in Resident #24's room unattended on 12/14/24 because Resident #24 was in the bathroom as per her statement dated 12/15/24. LPN #100 stated she returned to Resident #24's room about one hour after leaving the medications in Resident #24's room to discover Resident #24 had not taken the medications. LPN #100 stated she was removed from Resident #24's care for a few months after the incident with Resident #24's daughter on 12/14/24 but stated she continued to pull Resident #24's medications from the medication cart and another nurse would administer the medications to Resident #24. LPN #100 confirmed she was the nurse who signed off on the medication administration on the MAR in December 2024 even though she did not observe Resident #24 consume the medications. Interview with Director of Nursing (DON) on 04/23/25 at 1:46 P.M. confirmed Resident #24 was removed from LPN #100 assignment after December 14, 2024, for a short period of time after an incident between Resident #24's daughter and LPN #100.

Review of the facility policy titled, Administering Medications, stated medications shall be administered in a safe and timely manner and as prescribed. The policy stated the individual administering medications must check the label to verify the right resident, right medication, right dosage, right time and right method (route) of administration before giving the medication. The individual administering the medication must initial the resident's MAR after giving the mediation. The policy stated for residents not in their room or otherwise unavailable to receive mediation on the pass, the MAR may be flagged and after completing the medication pass, the nurse would return to the missed resident to administer the medication.
