Ensure drugs and biologicals used in the facility are labeled in accordance with currently accepted professional principles; and all drugs and biologicals must be stored in locked compartments, separately locked, compartments for controlled drugs.
Based on observation, interview, and policy review, the facility failed to properly store medications. This had the potential to affect all 133 residents in the facility.
Findings include: On 07/24/23 at 8:42 A.M. during preparation of medication administration observation, Registered Nurse (RN) #108 had unlocked the medication cart, exposing one five-ounce drinking cup approximately half full of white tablets. The cup was uncovered and written on the outside of the cup, with marker, was sodium bicarb 325 mg. Interview with the RN revealed she was unsure how many tablets were in the cup and she verified there was no expiration date listed for the medications. RN #108 revealed she was unsure how many days the cup with the white tablets had been stored in the cart. Further interview revealed sodium bicarb was an over the counter medication and there was only one cart that had a bottle of sodium bicarb 325 mg available for resident administration, so the medication was shared by pouring some of the tablets into a medication cup to store them in the medication cart for resident administration. Interview on 07/25/23 at 2:00 P.M. with the Director of Nursing (DON) verified medications were to be stored in the original packaging with the appropriate label and expiration date and never be stored outside of the original package with clear labeling. Review of the facility undated policy titled, Medication Storage revealed it was the facility policy to ensure all medications housed on the premises would be stored in the pharmacy and or medication rooms according to the manufacturer's recommendation and sufficient to ensure proper sanitation, temperature, light, ventilation, moisture control, segregation, and security. This deficiency represents non-compliance investigated under Complaint Number OH00144205.
