Findings included:Record review of Resident #32's face sheet dated 01/14/26 indicated a [AGE] year-old female admitted to the facility on [DATE] with diagnosis of protein-calorie malnutrition (insufficient intake of protein and caloric-energy), primary hypertension (high blood pressure) and chronic ischemic heart disease (decreased blood flow to heart).Record review of Resident 32's quarterly MDS dated [DATE] indicated she had a BIMS 6 of 15 indicating she had severely impaired cognitive skills for daily decision making. Record review of Resident #32's undated care plan included: Focus - Resident #32 has Osteoporosis inadequate calcium intake and Interventions - encourage intake of dairy products, cereals enriched with calcium and vitamin D and to give medications as ordered.Record review of Resident #32's physician orders dated 01/14/26 included a physician order for vitamin D3(Cholecalciferol) give 2000 unit by mouth one time a day for supplement.

MA H said the order was for vitamin D 2000 units which would have been 2 tablets of the 1000 unit tablets. MA H said she gave one tablet instead of two and stated it was her mistake and just missed it. She said she checks the medication cart drawers for each medication to ensure she has everything needed. She said then she takes each medication container and dispenses the drug into cups while checking the order again before finally administering. MA H said she received in-services from the facility regarding following physician orders, medication administration and medication errors. MA H did not see there would be any severe risk to Resident #32 when Resident #32 did not receive the full dose of vitamin D and MA H said she thought she was following the orders at the time. She said it was a medication error and (continued on next page) Any deficiency statement ending with an asterisk (*) denotes a deficiency which the institution may be excused from correcting providing it is determined that other safeguards provide sufficient protection to the patients.
