Record review of Resident #1's Hospital Records, dated 11/18/2023, reflected the resident had a diagnosis
of heparin overdose and fluid overload. The resident had minor bleeding from the mouth/lip prior to admit.
The treatment ordered to treat the heparin overdose was to hold the medication for two days. The resident

his patient for that day, and the resident was currently stable, with vital signs within normal limits.
An observation and interview on 12/07/2023 at 2:30 PM with Resident #1 revealed she was seated in her
wheelchair in her room. She said she was doing well and glad to be back home from the hospital. She said
she did not have any concerns about her hospital stay and she did not realize on 11/18/23 she received too
much heparin. She said the injection did not hurt. She said she did not have any side effects from the
heparin.

single dose vials and he administered the entire vial to Resident #1. He was aware now the vial was
actually 10 doses (50,000 units) and it was inappropriate to administer the medication all at once. He stated
the potential outcome could have been resident harm and/or additional illness. He stated the facility

where she was currently. It was determined by her investigation that RN F administered a 50,000-unit vial of
heparin to Resident #1, and not the 5,000 units as prescribed. She stated the resident's responsible party,
physician, and nurse practitioner were informed. After a period of observation, Resident #1 was transferred
to the hospital. She then stated she began extensive in-services in response to the incident.
