medication could be given. Also stated a potential negative outcome to the resident was the resident could
have side effects, there could be behaviors and the family would not know. She stated the consent should
have been obtained prior to increase in dosage.

person-centered care plan based on assessed needs with measurable objectives that could be evaluated
or quantified to attain or maintain the resident's highest practicable physical, mental, and psychosocial
well-being for 1 (Resident #1) of 5 residents reviewed for comprehensive person-centered care plans.
The facility failed to develop care plans based on the assessed needs with measurable objectives and
timeframes for hospice services for Resident #1.

including acute and comprehensive. The DON stated MDS Coordinator was responsible for initiating care

professional principles; and all drugs and biologicals must be stored in locked compartments, separately
locked, compartments for controlled drugs.
Based on observation, interview, and record review, the facility failed to ensure drugs and biologicals used
in the facility were labeled with currently accepted professional principles, and included the appropriate
accessory and cautionary instructions, and the expiration date when applicable for and 1 of 3 medication
carts (Hall 400 nurse medication cart) reviewed for medication storage.
The facility failed to ensure the nurses cart #1 for the 400 Hall did not contain nebulizers and inhalers that
were opened and not labeled with the open date.
This failure could place residents at risk of adverse medication reactions.
Findings included:
Observation on 05/28/25 at 11:30 AM revealed the nurse's medication cart #1 for the 400 Hall had the
following opened medications with no open date labeled:
1. Advair diskus inhaler

3. Albuterol Sulfate HFA
4. 2 boxes Ipratropium Bromide and albuterol sulfate inhalation solution
Interview on 05/28/25 at 11:31 AM with RN B, she said once inhalers, nasal spray, and nebulizers are
opened they need to be dated with open dates. She said it was the responsibility for all nurses to check
carts for labelling and dating every shift, but she did not check the whole cart that morning. She stated
insulins are good for 28 days and inhalers are also good for 30 days. She stated the risk of not having an
opening date was they would not be able to know when they expire, and they will not be effective.
Interview on 05/28/25 at 1:36 PM with the DON revealed she said inhalers, insulin, and nasal spray when
opened should be dated. She stated it was the responsibility of nursing management to check and audit the
carts after the nurses. The DON said the nurses were responsible for dating the medication when opened.
She stated insulin was good for 28 days, and the inhalers and nebulizer should be dated once the box was
opened.
Record review of the Recommended Medication Storage policy, dated 7/2012, reflected the following:
1.
Medications that require an open date as directed by the manufacturer should be dated when opened in a
manner that it is clear when the medication was opened.
