The DON stated she was educating all nurses on pulling medications from the Omnicell (emergency medication back-up system) or notifying the physician to ensure medications can be held and started the next day when the medications were available from the pharmacy. Review of an undated policy titled, Administering Medications, revealed medications must be administered in accordance with the orders, including any required timeframes. This deficiency represents non-compliance investigated under Complaint Number OH00148733.
