interviews and record reviews the facility failed to establish a system of records of receipt and disposition of
all controlled drugs in sufficient detail to enable an accurate reconciliation for one (Resident #1) reviewed
for medications.The facility failed to document the receipt and disposition Resident #1's Oxycodone HCI
medication.This failure could result in controlled medications not accurately and periodically
reconciled.Findings included:Record review of Resident #1's face sheet reflected a [AGE] year-old female
with diagnoses which included chronic diastolic (congestive) heart failure, essential (primary) hypertension,
and generalized muscle weakness. Resident #1 also had diagnoses for pain in both the right and left knees,
along with other chronic pain issues, highlighting a potential need for effective pain management.A record
review of Resident #1's medication administration record (MAR), dated 12/22/2025, reflected on
11/20/2025, Resident #1 was ordered Oxycodone HCl oral tablets, 5 mg, to be administered as needed for
pain every 12 hours. The MAR reflected this medication was discontinued as of 11/18/2025.Record review
of Resident # 1's progress notes, dated 12/4/2025, reflected she was discharged home with all personal
belongings and prescriptions. The staff reviewed the medication orders with her, and she understood the list
provided. Notably, the patient refused to take her PRN oxycodone and was picked up by a family member in
a private vehicle. In an interview on 12/22/2025 at 2:08 PM, RN A stated if medications were left behind by
discharged residents, they should be signed for and documented by the Director of Nursing (DON).In an
interview on 12/22/2025 at 2:11 PM, RN B indicated all narcotics and discharge records were managed by
the DON and must be logged, with non-narcotic medications stored separately.In an interview on
12/22/2025 at 2:15 PM, LVN A noted any medications left with him would be reported to the DON

discharging residents, which included removing the blister pack and bringing the pills to the DON for proper
disposal.Observation on 12/22/2025 at 3:54 PM of the medication storage room revealed the facility did not
utilize written logs, only an electronic deviceIn an interview on 12/22/2025 at 3:55 PM, LVN A stated while
all narcotic drugs required two staff members for sign-out, the process differed for discharged patients, with
the understanding that drugs left behind should be logged by the DON.An attempted interview by telephone
with Resident #1 at 4:33 PM was unsuccessful. A voicemail was left and a return call was requested.In an
interview at 4:45 PM, the DON stated the issue surrounding the undocumented oxycodone and stated she
could not provide a log for medications left behind by residents. The DON stated she recognized this as a
serious problem and was committed to working with her staff to rectify the situation.Record review on
