The policy stated the medications must be administered in accordance with the orders, including any required time frame. The policy also stated staff shall follow established facility infection control procedures (i.e. handwashing, antiseptic technique, gloves, isolation precautions, etc.) for the administration of medications as applicable. The deficiency was based on incidental findings discovered during the course of this complaint investigation.
