F 0755 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Few Provide pharmaceutical services to meet the needs of each resident and employ or obtain the services of a licensed pharmacist. **NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on observation, interview and record review the facility failed to provide pharmaceutical services, including procedures that assure the accurate acquiring, receiving, dispensing, and administering of all drugs and biologicals, to meet the needs of each resident for 1 of 5 residents (Resident #60) reviewed for narcotic medication. The facility failed to ensure Resident #60's Lorazepam Medication was accounted for. This failure could place residents at risk for not receiving prescribed medication and drug diversion. Findings include: Record review of Resident #60's, face sheet, dated 06/11/25, indicated an [AGE] year-old female who was admitted to the facility on [DATE]. Resident #60 had diagnoses which included: anxiety (feeling of uneasiness), insomnia (difficulty falling asleep) and mood disturbance (disruptions in a person's emotional state). Record review of Resident #60's admission MDS, dated [DATE], indicated a BIMS of 05, which indicated severe cognitive impairment. Record review of Resident #60's physician orders, dated 06/10/25, indicated an active order for Lorazepam Oral tablet 1 mg, Give 1 tablet by mouth every four hours as needed for anxiety. Further review of Resident #60's Physician orders for 04/2025 indicated no order for Lorazepam (medication used to treat anxiety). Record review of Resident #60's Individual Control Drug Record Narcotic Count sheet for the Lorazepam Oral tablet 1 mg indicated the facility received the medication from the pharmacy on 03/31/25 and the quantity received was 30 tablets. The record indicated the following on: -04/01/25, at 8:00 p.m. MA P administered 1 tablet leaving 29 tablets -04/02/25 at 8:00 p.m. MA F administered 1 tablet leaving 28 tablets -04/07/25 at 8:00 p.m. LVN E administered 1 tablet leaving 27 tablets with a line drawn through LVN E's name and error written beside her name (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.

Record review of Resident's #60's Medication Administration Record for the month of 04/2025 indicated no order for Lorazepam and no indication that Lorazepam was administered to Resident #60 for the month of 04/2025. Observation of a random narcotic count with LVN K on 06/10/25 at 1:30 p.m. indicated Resident #60's Lorazepam 1 mg, Narcotic Count Sheet indicated there were 22 tablets of Lorazepam 1 mg, Further observation indicated a line drawn through LVN E's name and error written beside her name for 04/07/25, 8:00 p.m. During an interview on 06/10/25 at 1:30 p.m., LVN K said she had not given Resident #60 any Lorazepam and noticed the scratch thru name, but the narcotic count was correct, so she thought nothing of it. She said per the facility protocol if the narcotic count was off, staff must stay at the facility, the DON must be notified to re-count the narcotics and attempt to locate the narcotics. The staff involved in any missing narcotics would be required to take a drug test. She said the risk to residents could be drug diversion if meds were not accounted for or signed out as administered on the medication administration record. During an interview on 06/11/2025 at 9:30 a.m., the ADON said she was not aware of Resident #60 not having an order for Lorazepam for the month of April 2025. She said she monitored administration of narcotics by doing random counts of the medication cart and she would look at the narcotic record sheets for any mistakes. The ADON said medication carts were to be counted at shift change. She said she expected staff to count the medication carts, make sure medication orders were there before administering and to document correctly, notify the DON and herself immediately if there was a problem, staff were to remain at the facility until administrative staff arrived. The ADON stated no medications were to be given without a physician's order, because residents could receive the wrong dose of medications. During an interview on 06/11/2025 at 10:30 a.m., MA C said she never administered the medication to Resident #60 because she didn't have and order and she drew a line thru her name but did not administer the medication. She said if she would have seen it on the medication administration record she would have given it. MA C said she did not notify her nurse Resident #60 didn't have an active order because she didn't give the Lorazepam. MA C said giving medication without a physician order put them at risk of taking medications they didn't need. During an interview on 06/11/2025 at 12:18 p.m., MA F said medications carts were supposed to be counted at the time of shift change.

F 0755 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Few carts one staff to check the paper record and the other staff to check the medication to ensure they matched. She said the facility in-serviced all nurses and medication aides on counting all narcotic medication in the medication carts and how to document on the medication administration record. She was not sure why she did not document in the eMAR for Resident #60 to show she received the Narcotic she logged out on the individual narcotic record. MA F said she knew better than to administer Resident #60 Lorazepam without it being on the medication administration record. MA F said because Resident #60's Lorazepam blister card was on her cart she thought there was already an order for the medication on the eMAR but she did not sign it out. MA F said administering medication without an doctor's order could mean giving residents medication they could be allergic too. MA F said next time she would report it to her ADON or DON. During an attempted interview on 06/11/25 at 12:25 p.m., MA G did not answer the phone call, or reply to the voice message that was sent to her regarding the investigation. During an attempted interview on 06/11/25 at 12:30 p.m., LVN E did not answer the phone call, or reply to the voice message that was sent to her regarding the investigation. During an interview on 6/11/25 at 2:00 p.m., the DON said she was not aware of any concerns with Narcotics not being given or any documentation discrepancies until state surveyor intervention. The DON explained her expectation was for anyone administering to sign out on the individual narcotic record and then immediately sign the eMAR after the resident took the medication. The DON said she expected the nurses to do follow-up documentation after the narcotic was given to document effectiveness in the nurse's progress notes. The DON said the ADON was responsible for monitoring the pain management of residents and the narcotic logs looking for discrepancies such as scratch outs, frequency of person giving Narcotics. The DON said administer medications and not signing off on the medication administration record put the resident at risk of double dosing and taking something they didn't need. Record review of the facility's policy titled Medication Administration, dated 10/24/22, read in part: Medications are administered by licensed nurses or other staff who are legally authorized to do so in this state as ordered by the physician and in accordance with professional standards of practice in a manner to prevent contamination or infection so . 11.

F 0757 Ensure each resident’s drug regimen must be free from unnecessary drugs. Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm **NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on observation, interview, and record review, the facility failed to ensure each resident's drug regimen was free of unnecessary drugs for 1 of 20 residents (Resident #41) reviewed for unnecessary medication. Residents Affected - Few The facility failed to monitor Resident #41 for side effects of the antidepressant medication, Duloxetine (used to treat depression). These failures could place the residents at risk for adverse consequences and decline in health. Findings include: Record review of Resident #41's face sheet, dated 06/09/25, indicated Resident #41 was a [AGE] year-old female who was admitted to the facility on [DATE] and readmitted [DATE].

Record review of Resident #41's MAR, dated 06/10/25, indicated Resident #41 received duloxetine 30 mg daily for bipolar disease with a start date of 04/21/25. Record review of Resident #41's physician orders, dated 06/11/25, indicated Resident #41 was prescribed duloxetine 30 mg daily for bipolar disease with a start date of 04/21/25. The orders did not address monitoring the antidepressant medication for side effects. Record review of Resident #41's care plan, with a target date of 06/25/25, indicated Resident #41 was prescribed the antidepressant medication duloxetine with interventions which included administer antidepressant medication as ordered by physician and monitor, document side effects and effectiveness every shift. Record review of Resident #41's electronic medical record, from 05/01/25 to 06/11/25, for Resident #41 did not indicate the nurses' documented monitoring of side effects of the antidepressant medication, duloxetine daily with medication administration. During an observation and interview on 06/11/25 at 8:45 a.m., Resident #41 was lying in bed and nodded in agreement that she received needed medication, received antidepressant medication but was unsure if was monitored for side effects. During an interview on 06/11/25 at 8:46 a.m., LVN B said she was providing care for Resident #41 today, but CMA C gave Resident #41's duloxetine.

F 0757 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Few in-serviced on and was aware antidepressant medication should be monitored for side effects. She said Resident #41's was overlooked. LVN B said the resident risk was the staff could miss behaviors or side effects if not monitored. During an interview on 06/11/25 at 8:50 a.m., CMA C said Resident #41 should be monitored for side effects for the duloxetine with the medication administrator but was not. She said she was responsible for providing medication to Resident #41 today and her duloxetine should be monitored for side effects but was not. She said the nurses were responsible for adding side effect monitoring to the computer system and the ADONs and DON were the back up to double check. She said Resident #41's side effect monitoring was overlooked. CMA C said she was educated on monitoring antidepressant medication for side effects. She said she gave Resident #41 medication which included duloxetine on 06/06/25, but had not given the duloxetine yet today. CMA C said the resident risk of a resident given an antidepressant medication and not monitored for side effects was the resident could get worse and more depressed. During an interview on 06/11/25 at 9:14 a.m., the DON said Resident #41's antidepressant medication should have been monitored for side effects when the medication was given to the resident. She said LVN A added it after state surveyor intervention. The DON said the nursing who admitted the resident was responsible for addition of side effect monitoring into the computer system and the ADONs were the back up. She said LVN D admitted resident #41 and was responsible, and ADON A was the back up. She said the ADON's ran daily reports to check for new medications, consents and side effect monitoring and did monthly monitoring charts for accuracy of orders. She said Resident #41 was overlooked. The DON said the resident risk was possible not capturing adverse reactions and not immediate intervention to a reaction. She said the side effect monitoring queued the nurses with specific side effects to monitor. The DON said her expectation was daily monitoring of psychotropic medication (drugs that affect mental processes and behaviors and often used to treat mental illness) and any noted side effect and addressed immediately. During an interview on 06/11/25 at 9:23 a.m., ADON A said the nurse who admitted the resident or wrote the order for the psychotropic medication was responsible for addition of the side effect monitoring into the computer system and the ADON was responsible for the resident's Hall she was admitted and for double checking for monitoring. She said she was responsible for hall 200 and memory care residents. ADON A said she was responsible for ensuring Resident #41's monitoring was added for her antidepressant medication. She said the antidepressant monitoring dropped off when the resident readmitted on [DATE] and was not added back into the computer system. She said she ran reports daily to ensure all new medication was reviewed and had monitoring as needed. ADON A said all the nurses were educated on monitoring antidepressant medication for side effects. She said the resident risk of an antidepressant medication not monitored for side effects was staff may not be aware of the specific side effects to monitor for, a side effect could go unnoticed, and the resident may not receive needed interventions for side effects. During an interview on 06/11/25 at 9:47 a.m., LVN D said she readmitted Resident #41 from the hospital on [DATE]. She said the ADON and DON were responsible to ensure all antidepressant medication was monitored for side effects. LVN D said she was educated on side effect monitoring and aware all antidepressant medication should be monitored. She said she did not know how to add side effect monitoring into the computer system but would find out immediately. LVN D said the resident risk was without a specific list of side effects to be monitored a resident could have side effects the nurse could be unaware and may not address the side effect.
