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 that included
the accurate acquiring and receiving of all drugs and biologicals to meet the needs of each resident noted
in 1 of 3 medication areas (medication room) reviewed for medication storage.
The facility medication room contained 3 prescription medications that were expired.
The facility's failure to ensure medications were stored in accordance with currently accepted professional
principles could result in a resident receiving the incorrect medication or a medication that would be
ineffective for their treatment resulting in exacerbation of the resident's condition and disease processes.
Findings include:
During an observation on 09-12-2023 at 09:31 AM of the facility's medication room with the DON and CRN
present the following medications were noted to be expired that were present in the overflow bin for room
[ROOM NUMBER]A:
Atorvastatin 1 bottle with expiration of 4-26-2023 and one bottle with expiration of 8-30-2023
Losartan 1 bottle with expiration of 6-21-2023 and one bottle with expiration of 8-30-2023
Gabapentin 1 bottle with expiration of 8-30-2023
During an interview on 9-12-2023 at 09:33 AM the DON and CRN they verified that the three prescription
medication were expired, were part of the overflow stock, and that if the primary medication cart on the
floor was out of medication, then the nurse would grab what they needed from this stock in the medication
room. The DON reported that she did not feel the expired medication would be a problem because the staff
are trained to check each medication for expiration prior to being administered. The DON stated, The
chance an expired medication would be given would be slim. We check dates when we pass any meds. The
CRN agreed. The DON reported that the expired medications were brought in when the resident in room
[ROOM NUMBER]A was admitted recently and they expected him to be short term but he has since
decided to stay and the medications he brought in were not discarded as they should have been.
During an interview on 09-13-2023 at 08:52 AM LVN A reported that if a resident is out of a prescription
medication in the medication cart, they will check the medication room for the overflow

Give their staff education on dementia care, and what abuse, neglect, and exploitation are; and how to
report abuse, neglect, and exploitation.
Based on interview and record review the facility failed to provide training to their staff for abuse, neglect,

trainings.

BOM/HR verified that the 4 employees were not trained upon hire and reported that the nursing department
