obtain alternate physician/prescriber orders, as necessary.

During an interview on 4/29/25, at 9:56 a.m. the Director of Nursing (DON) stated, Resident R1 was
admitted in 2023 on this cancer medication. He's his own person, but he has a brother involved. This cancer
medication is $1500 a month, his brother pays out of pocket for it. We recently found out that this brother is
now unable to order and provide the medication. He got it from a pharmacy in Delaware. He has another
brother who is willing to take over and supply the medication, however since Resident R1 is his own person
and responsible party, we can't give the other brother any of his medication information without his
permission and Resident R1 has stated he doesn't want us to talk to his brother.
During an interview on 4/29/25, at 10:41 a.m. the DON stated the facility was unable to provide
documentation that the physician was made aware of Resident R1's medication being unavailable and that
the facility failed to ensure the physician was appropriately notified of missed medication doses for Resident
R1.
