professional principles; and all drugs and biologicals must be stored in locked compartments, separately
locked, compartments for controlled drugs.
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
observation, interview, and record review, the facility failed to ensure all drugs and biologicals were stored
in locked compartments under proper temperature controls and permitted only authorized personnel to
have access to the keys for 1 of 3 medication carts (the Treatment Cart) reviewed for medication storage, in
that;
The facility failed to ensure the Treatment Cart was locked when it was left unattended in the common area
in front of the nurses' station, and then again left unlocked and unattended in the 200-hallway opposite of
room [ROOM NUMBER].
This deficient practice could place residents at risk of medication misuse or drug diversion.
The findings were:
In an observation on 10/03/2024 at 10:46 AM, the Treatment Cart was left unlocked and unattended in the
common area in front of the nurse's station. The cart contained scissors, prescription and over the counter
medications related to skin and wound care. There were staff, residents, and visitors in the immediate
vicinity.
In an interview on 10/03/2024 at 10:47 AM, RN A stated the Treatment Cart was her responsibility. RN A
stated the Treatment Cart should not be left unlocked when not in use. RN A stated she had been trained
not to leave it unlocked when not attended. RN A stated that the Treatment Cart had been unlocked and
unattended just while I stepped into the DON's office to pick up some print outs. RN A stated she was
unsure off the top of her head if any of the items in the Treatment Cart could cause harm if used
inappropriately. RN A stated that she believed some risk of harm was always possible.
In an observation on 10/03/2024 at 10:52 AM, the Treatment Cart was left unlocked and unattended in the
200-hallway opposite of room [ROOM NUMBER]. The cart contained scissors, prescription and over the
counter medications related to skin and wound care. There were staff, residents, and visitors in the
immediate vicinity. Specifically, an unidentified resident could be seen pacing in the hallway near where the
Treatment cart was parked during the provision of resident care. The drawers were facing out in to the
200-hallway.
In an interview on 10/03/2024 at 11:22 AM, RN A stated that she could not believe she had left the
Treatment Cart unlocked again. RN A stated that she had only been working at the facility for about a week
and had not ever been through a SA survey and was very nervous. RN A stated she had mistakenly left the
Treatment Cart unlocked when she stepped into room [ROOM NUMBER] to begin a procedure that was
being observed by a SA surveyor.
In an interview on 10/03/2024 at 1:50 PM, the DON stated that she had her eyes on the cart through the
window when it was at the nurses' station, when RN A was in her office at the printer. The DON stated she
did not believe the Treatment Cart should be considered unattended when it was left unlocked at the
nurses' station because she could see it from where she sat in the DON office. The DON conceded that she
did not intervene before the drawers on the Medication Cart were opened and assessed by this SA
surveyor. The DON inquired if the cart drawers opened into the room when the Medication

residents (Resident #12) with wounds observed for infection control, in that:
Residents Affected - Few
The facility failed to ensure hand hygiene was initiated between glove changes during wound care for
Resident #12 on 10/03/2024.
This deficient practice could affect residents who required wound care by contributing to the bacteria load
