Findings include: Review of the medical record for Resident #15 revealed an admission date of 04/10/25 with medical diagnoses of pulmonary hypertension, disorder of the autonomic nervous system, left hemiplegia, and atrial fibrillation. Review of the medical record for Resident #15 revealed an admission MDS assessment, dated 04/16/25, which indicated Resident #15 was cognitively intact and required partial/moderate staff assistance for eating, was dependent upon staff for toilet hygiene, and bathing, and required substantial/maximum assistance with bed mobility. Review of the medical record for Resident #15 revealed a communication form, dated 05/16/25 at 12:00 A.M., which stated Resident #15 was administered Meclizine (antihistamine) via percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy (peg) tube in error around 10:30 P.M.

Review of the facility Medication Error Report, dated 05/16/25, stated on 05/15/25 Resident #15's roommate, Resident #16, had requested his Meclizine. The report stated the nurse administered the Meclizine to Resident #15 instead of Resident #16 and that Resident #15 did not have an order for Meclizine.
