locked, compartments for controlled drugs.
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
observations, staff interviews, record review, and review of the facility policy, the facility failed to ensure
medications were stored in a safe and secure manner when the medication cart was left unlocked in the
facility. This had the potential to affect 20 residents (#1, #2, #3, #4, #5, #7, #8, #9, #10, #11, #13, #14, #15,
#17, #19, #20, #22, #23, #24, and #25) residing in the facility, as the facility identified nine residents as
immobile (Residents #6, #12, #16, #18, #21, #26, #27, #28, and #29). Also, the facility failed to ensure
medications were not removed from original labeled packaging and pre-poured prior to administration to
residents. This affected four residents (Resident #1, #7, #8 and #16) of four residents reviewed for
medication administration. The facility census was 29. Findings include: 1. On 01/28/26 at 8:55 A.M., an
observation revealed a medication storage cart labeled 100/300 Halls was unlocked. The medication cart
was located in an open hallway in front of the nurses' station and was unattended at the time of the
observation. An interview on 01/28/26 at 8:56 A.M. with the Assistant Director of Nursing (ADON) #144
confirmed the medication cart was unlocked and stated the cart was required to be locked when
unattended. A review of the facility policy titled Storage of Medication, dated 04/2007, revealed the facility
policy stated all drugs and biologicals to be stored in a safe, secure, and orderly manner. The policy further
stated nursing staff were responsible for maintaining medication storage and preparation areas in a clean,
safe, and sanitary condition. The policy specified that compartments including, but not limited to, drawers,
cabinets, rooms, refrigerators, carts, and boxes containing drugs and biologicals must be locked when not
in use, and carts or trays used to transport medications must not be left unattended if open or otherwise
accessible. 2. Review of the medical record revealed Resident #1 was admitted on [DATE] with significant
diagnoses including epilepsy. Physician orders included Phenobarbital 32.4 milligram (mg), take one tablet
by mouth one time daily for seizure control. Review of the Minimum Data Set (MDS) assessment dated
[DATE] revealed Resident #1 was cognitively intact, had a seizure disorder and received anticonvulsant
medications. Review of the care plan dated 12/03/25 identified Resident #1 had a seizure disorder with
interventions to administer seizure medications as ordered. 3. Review of the medical record revealed
Resident #7 was admitted on [DATE] with diagnoses including localization-related idiopathic epilepsy and
epileptic seizures. Physician orders included Phenobarbital 64.8 mg, give one tablet by mouth twice daily
for seizure control. Review of the MDS assessment dated [DATE] revealed Resident #7 was cognitively
intact, and received anticonvulsant medications. Review of the care plan dated 01/12/26 identified Resident
#7 had altered neurological status secondary to seizure disorder with interventions to administer
medications as ordered. 4. Review of the medical record revealed Resident #8 was admitted on [DATE] with
diagnoses including chronic cholecystitis, psychoactive substance abuse, muscle weakness, and difficulty
walking.

Physician orders included Tramadol 50 mg, give one tablet by mouth every six hours as needed for pain.
Review of the MDS assessment dated [DATE] revealed Resident #8 was cognitively intact and used opioid
pain medications. Review of the care plan for Resident #8 dated 01/06/26 addressed altered comfort
related to pain, difficulty walking, and muscle weakness, with interventions to administer medications as
ordered. 5. Review of the medical record revealed Resident #16 was admitted on [DATE] with a diagnosis of
opioid dependence in remission. Physician orders included Buprenorphine HCl-Naloxone (Suboxone) 8-2
mg, one tablet sublingually daily for history of substance abuse. Review of the MDS assessment dated
[DATE] revealed Resident #16 was cognitively intact and received opioid medications. Review of the care
plan for Resident #16 dated 11/05/25 identified Suboxone therapy related to substance abuse history, with
interventions to administer medications as ordered. On 01/28/26 at 8:30 A.M. an observation of the
medication pass revealed a clear plastic medication cup labeled with Resident #1's name contained a
single pill and was sitting on top of the medication cart. Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) #115 identified the
pill as Resident #1's phenobarbital. A second clear medication cup labeled with Resident #7's name
contained a single pill and was sitting on top of the medication cart. LPN #155 identified the pill as Resident
#7's phenobarbitol. A third clear medication cup labeled with Resident #8's name contained a single pill and
was sitting on top of the medication cart. LPN #115 identified the pill as Resident #8's tramadol. A fourth
clear medication cup labeled with Resident #16's name contained a single pill and was sitting on top of the
medication cart. LPN #115 identified the pill as Resident #16's Suboxone. LPN #115 verified she had
pre-poured Resident #1, #7, #8 and #16's medications at one time into the medication cups so she did not
have to keep going back and forth into the narcotic drawer for each resident during the medication pass. An
interview on 01/28/26 at 1:30 P.M. with the Director of Nursing confirmed medications were not to be
pre-poured prior to administration to each resident. An interview on 01/28/26 at 1:34 P.M. with LPN #115
revealed she routinely prepared all narcotics before beginning her medication pass to avoid repeatedly
accessing the locked narcotics drawer. LPN #115 stated she believed this practice was acceptable because
the medication cups were labeled with the resident names. Review of the facility policy titled Medication
Administration, dated 08/22/22, revealed medications are to be administered in accordance with
professional standards of practice. The policy requires medications to be removed from their source
immediately prior to administration, administered as ordered, and observed for resident consumption. This
deficiency represents non-compliance investigated under Complaint Number 2667734.
