administered on 7/31/24 at 7 AM, 11 AM and 3 PM. [Resident #1 discharged home on 7/31/24.]
During an interview on 8/22/24 at 4:52 PM, the ADON stated Resident #1 was admitted for respite care on
7/17/24 and came with his bottles of medications. She stated she placed the orders in the computer and
selected inventory on hand to indicate they already had the medications available. She stated the orders
were based on what Resident #1 was taking at home. She stated, when that occurred, she typically did not
get medications delivered or received a call from the pharmacy for any clarifications they needed. The
ADON stated, the next day she noticed some of the medications had been changed to pending
confirmation status in the computer including his Carbidopa-Levodopa. She stated she had also noticed the
pharmacy had changed his Memantine order from 28 MG extended release once a day to 10 MG twice a
day and sent the medications. She stated he had already received some of those doses. She stated she
changed his Memantine order back to his original daily dose strength, but she had forgotten to change it
back to once a day and left it as twice a day in error. The ADON stated she thought Resident #1 had arrived
with a list of medications and would look for the list. She stated they were not aware of the error with his
Memantine until his day of discharge when the family noticed he had fewer doses left than he should have.
During an interview on 8/23/24 at 9:30 AM, the Administrator stated there were no current residents
receiving respite services in the facility.
In an interview on 8/23/24 at 9:50 AM, CNA A stated he typically worked the day shift and remembered
Resident #1 very well. He stated he did not notice any changes in his cognition or function throughout his
stay.
During an interview on 8/23/24 at 10:01 AM, RN B stated she was very familiar with Resident #1 but had
not been assigned as his charge nurse during his stay. She stated she did not notice any changes in his
cognition or mobility during his stay and had not heard about any issues related to his medications.
During an interview on 8/23/24 at 10:09 AM, LVN C stated she frequently care for Resident #1 during his
stay. She stated she was unaware of any issues with his medications other than possible missing his
Carbidopa-Levodopa on his first day as there were some pharmacy issues. He had also asked for his dose
time to be changed so that he received it before breakfast. LVN C stated he did not notice any changes in
his strength or cognition while he was there, and he would chat about his previous job while sitting with
them.
During an interview on 8/23/24 at 11:22 AM, the Medical Director stated she had heard from the DON and
been made aware of the dosing issue with Resident #1's Memantine in that it was an extended-release
dose and should have been administered only once a day. The Medical Director was unable to recall on
what day she was made aware by the DON. She stated they usually gave the lower dose two times a day at
the facility, and she had overlooked the transcription error as well. She stated the risk of double dosing a
resident was you were not supposed to overdose anyone. The Medical Director stated, for that particular
medication, she would not think it would cause significant issues for the

timeframe involved. She stated other medications such as anti-anxiety medications would cause more
serious issues. She stated she was aware Resident #1 missed 4 doses of his Carbidopa-Levodopa. She
stated, having Parkinson's and being on respite care, I really can't say there was too much risk. They
usually don't do well if they miss too many doses. They might not feel great and can feel a little tight but not
necessarily increased fall risks. She stated she did not believe Resident #1 missing his initial doses at the
facility contributed to his falls . The Medical Director stated she had not had any other issues with pharmacy
services at the facility and the staff were usually pretty good at letting her know of any concerns. She stated
respite residents typically came with their own medications from home.
In an interview on 8/23/24 at 12:01 PM, LVN D stated she had cared for Resident #1 during his respite stay
at the facility. LVN D denied noting any decline in Resident #1's cognition or strength while he was at the
facility. She stated she was not aware of any medication issues on her shifts.
In an observation and interview on 8/23/24 at 12:19 PM, Resident #2 was sitting up in his room watching
television. He stated he remembered Resident #1 very well and described him as a very nice guy. He
stated they often talked about his previous profession, and he would chat with his family as well. Resident
#2 stated he remembered him slipping out of bed on a couple of occasions. Resident #2 stated he had
never had any issues with his medications while staying at the facility and felt the staff did a good job.
In an interview on 8/23/24 at 12:41 PM, the facility's Pharmacy Consultant stated she had been informed
about Resident #1's medication issues. She stated she performed the monthly drug regimen reviews for the
facility but would not have done one for Resident #1 as he was only there two weeks. She stated the typical
dose of Memantine for residents was 10 MG twice a day and she understood he had received two doses of
the 28 MG extended-release doses twice a day instead due to a transcription error. The Pharmacy
Consultant stated she did not believe there was any real risk to the dose he had received, or it would have
been very minimal. The Pharmacy Consultant looked up Resident #1's doses of Carbidopa-Levodopa when
asked about missing the 4 doses. She stated there was still minimal to no risk as the medications were long
acting and had a half-life on 12-24 hours meaning there would still be medication in his system. She stated
the longer a patient was on the medication, the more of it would still be in his system. She did not know how
long Resident #1 had been taking the medication. She stated he may have felt some stiffness toward the
end of the last dose missed but it would have been doubtful.
During an interview on 8/23/24 at 1:08 PM, the ADON stated when orders were entered in the computer,
the medication may move to an interchange status and pending confirmation if medications were not
readily available and could be dispensed another way once confirmed with the physician. She reviewed the
MAR and orders in the electronic medical record. The ADON stated the doses of Carbidopa-Levodopa were
missed because when the pharmacy placed the order in pending confirmation status, the dose times on the
MAR would not show up for the nurses and medication aides. She stated that should not have occurred
because she had placed the status of his medications as on hand which let the pharmacy know the
medications were already available. She stated, when she arrived back to the facility on 7/18/24, she
noticed the interchange and pending confirmation status and called the pharmacy. She stated she
questioned the pharmacy why the medications had been showing an interchange when she clearly marked
them as 'on hand. The ADON stated the pharmacy contact looked at the orders and stated they had a new
technician who had missed it. She stated she informed the pharmacy she was going to discontinue the
interchanges made and reorder the medications the way they were supposed to be ordered. The ADON
stated she believed by the time the changes were made in the orders and system, Resident #1 had

missed the 4 doses of his Carbidopa-Levodopa. The ADON stated, as she was making the corrections, she
corrected the strength of Resident #1's Memantine but failed to change the doses back to once a day and
they remained twice a day. The ADON stated she had been unaware of the error until it came time to
discharge Resident #1 from the facility and they were handing over his medications to the family. She stated
his family noted the missing medications and questioned it and that was when she realized her mistake.
She stated she explained what had happened to Resident #1's family. She assessed Resident #1 and there
were no changes noted to his condition. The ADON stated she apologized to Resident #1's family and
assured them they would replace his medication stock. She stated the family member did not express any
concerns other than getting his medications returned and stated he would take care of Resident #1 and
ensure other family were aware. She stated Resident #1's family returned the next day to pick up his
medications and told her Resident #1 was doing fine. She stated she had explained everything to the
Administrator who had investigated the issue.
In an interview on 8/23/24 at 1:51 PM, the Administrator stated he was out of the country when the events
involving Resident #1's medication errors were discovered. He stated he had been in contact with the
outside Social Worker who had initially set hp his respite stay, had investigated the matter and discussed it
with them. He stated he learned there had been errors involving the pharmacy technician communication
and transcription of the orders. He stated he had interviewed the ADON about it and the ADON, DON and
Medical Director had reviewed the medication errors. The Administrator stated the incident had been added
to their QAPI ongoing issues and they had the pharmacy involved to ensure the situation did not occur
again. The Administrator stated the risk of medication errors including overdosing and missed medications
depended on the resident in terms of the medication, severity, and disease processes involved.
During an interview on 8/23/24 at 2:35 PM, the DON stated she had been made aware of the medication
errors from her ADON who had explained her transcription errors. She stated she had discussed it with the
Medical Director. She learned more about the pharmacy details, where they had missed the on-hand
portion of the order when the Administrator initiated the investigation. She stated the risk of medication
errors depending on the medications and resident's condition. Missed medications and extra doses could
lead to resident harm.
Record review of the facility's undated policy titled, Pharmacy Services reflected the following:
The facility provides routine and emergency drugs and biologicals to residents under
