Inspector’s narrative

What the inspector wrote

This survey cited 1 deficiency. The full statement and the facility’s plan of correction follow, verbatim from the federal record.

F 0755 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Few Provide pharmaceutical services to meet the needs of each resident and employ or obtain the services of a licensed pharmacist. Based on observation, interview, and record review the facility failed to provide pharmaceutical services, including procedures that assure the accurate acquiring, receiving, dispensing, and administering of all drugs and biologicals, to meet the needs of each resident for 1of 2 medication storage rooms (Nurse's Station Room). The facility failed on 6/4/25 to ensure that expired lab testing supplies were removed from 1 of 2 medication storage rooms (Nurse's Station Room). This failure could place residents at risk for misdiagnosis from expired and possibly ineffective lab testing supplies. Use of these expired supplies would not meet acceptable standards of medical practice and could cause a resident to receive an incorrect treatment, which would allow their medical condition to worsen. Findings included: Observation on 6/4/25 at 3:55 PM of the Medication Storage Room located by the nurse's station revealed the following: 3 Lab swabs expired 2/9/2023. 4 Gray lab tubes expired 4/30/2023. 1 Gold lab tube expired 12/31/2023. 5 Lab swabs expired 7/1/2024. 3 Red tubes expired 9/19/2024. 6 Culture swabs expired 1/12/2025. In an interview on 6/5/25 at 1:20 PM, LVN-A stated the policy on expired medications and expired lab supplies was to pull them from stock, log them and destroy them. She stated the facility's contracted lab usually brings their own supplies. She stated MA's, nurses, and unit managers (including herself) were responsible for checking the medication rooms for expired items. She stated the negative outcome to residents if expired items were used (example lab tubes/cultures) was the expired cultures could cause inaccurate lab results. (continued on next page) Any deficiency statement ending with an asterisk (*) denotes a deficiency which the institution may be excused from correcting providing it is determined that other safeguards provide sufficient protection to the patients. (See instructions.) Except for nursing homes, the findings stated above are disclosable 90 days following the date of survey whether or not a plan of correction is provided. For nursing homes, the above findings and plans of correction are disclosable 14 days following the date these documents are made available to the facility.
