Resident #18 stated the medications were her chemotherapy drug (pomalidomide sodium).

In addition, there were were two round white pills sitting in a clear plastic cup on the bedside table. Resident #18 further stated the staff give her the Tylenol at night and sit them on her nightstand for her to take when she needs them. Interview with Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) #87 on 07/25/22 at 11:05 A.M. confirmed the medication on Resident #18's bedside table was Tylenol but was not sure how long they were there. LPN #87 also stated to Resident #18 that the Director of Nursing (DON) wanted to see the pills in the yellow bag. Resident #18 refused to give the bag to LPN #87 and the yellow bag remained in the open top nightstand drawer.

The two Tylenol tablets were no longer on the bedside table. Resident #18 stated she was given a lock box by the previous DON a long time ago and pointed to the top of her miniature refrigerator. Resident #18 stated she doesn't use the lock box because she can't open it herself and she could not reach it anyway. An interview with the Administrator on 07/27/22 at 5:30 P.M. confirmed the medication in Resident #18's room should have been securely stored. Review of the document titled Bristol [NAME] Squibb Prescribing Information, dated November 2020, revealed for pomalidomide sodium, the drug is to be kept out of reach of children and the capsule should be handled with as little exposure as possible.
