F 0835 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Many looked up and wiped his finger in the white substance and brushed it against his nose. Following the incident, Resident #300 left voluntarily with emergency services and the police. No documentation was available as to what occurred after the resident left with emergency services. On 08/26/19 at 10:58 A.M. interview with the Director of Nursing (DON) revealed the facility does admit residents into a drug rehab program which is associated with a local drug treatment center. All residents accepted into the program sign an agreement allowing the facility to obtain random urine drug screens as well as random room searches for those residents suspected of possible drug abuse. If the resident refuses to submit to either request an emergency discharge notice or a 30 day discharge notice can be given to the involved resident. The DON said she did not recall anyone being discharged for refusals as the majority of those residents in the program are homeless and there is nowhere they can safely discharge the resident to. Interview with Rehab Liaison (RL) #925 on 08/26/19 at 3:30 P.M. revealed she is the facility's contact person for those people participating in their IOP for substance abuse. RL #925 said the residents in the program attend the program three times per week for counseling. They are also seen by the program's physician who orders lab work, drug screens, and other medical tests as required. The facility's medical director is also part of the rehab center's staff so he is constantly updated on his residents conditions. The rehab center does weekly drug screening on those in the program which is more sensitive than the screens provided at the facility. If one of the facility's residents enrolled in their program were to be emergently discharged from the facility for a violation of the substance abuse agreement the rehab center would be able to refer the discharged resident to a safe location outside the facility. Interview with Corporate RN #926 and the Administrator on 08/26/19 at 3:50 P.M. revealed the facility would be making changes to their substance abuse program to provide a safer environment for their residents, staff, and visitors.

At the time of the interview, RN #926 and the Administrator were not able to provide information on how they would protect the residents, staff, and visitors from residents offering to sell them drugs, to prevent future overdoses and other problems from occurring associated with illegal substance/drug use that was occurring in the facility.
