The ADM stated his concerns would have been that residents could be chasing symptoms or there could have been a breakthrough in the disease process, and it would be harder to get it in control. Depending on how late the medication was, it could also have been too much if the late dose is given too close to the next dose and the therapeutic level could be off. During an interview on 9/25/2025 at 4:08 pm, the NP stated her expectation on medications orders would be that the orders were carried out and if there were any questions, the facility would call her in case she wanted to do something different for that resident.

She stated her expectation on the timing of medication of Carbidopa-Levodopa was that most residents are admitted on the medication and the facility will get as close as possible to the scheduled time. She stated some residents would get symptomatic and have an increase in tremors or shaking if they did not get it when scheduled. She stated she was not aware of any adverse reactions due to the late medications.
