Level of Harm - Minimal harm
or potential for actual harm
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
observations, interviews, and record reviews the facility failed to ensure that residents were free from any
significant medication errors for 1 (Resident #88) of 4 residents reviewed for pharmacy services.-The facility
failed to ensure Losartan (a blood pressure (BP) medication given to lower high blood pressure and help
protect the kidneys) was administered to Resident #88 per physician order from [DATE] through [DATE].
-The facility failed to ensure accurate reconciliation (a process of comparing and verifying a resident's
current list of medications with all prescribed medications to ensure accuracy and safety), of Resident #88's
Losartan medication. -MA A administered Losartan 25 mg give 1/2 tablet to equal 12.5mg by mouth daily to
Resident #88 and documented they administered Losartan 100 mg give 1 tablet by mouth daily. These
failures could place residents at risk of not receiving desired therapeutic outcomes, increased side effects,
adverse reactions and or decline in health. Findings included: Record review of Resident #88's admission
Record dated [DATE] revealed he was an [AGE] year old male who admitted to the facility on [DATE] with
some of the following diagnoses: acute respiratory failure with hypoxia, (a condition where the lungs cannot
adequately oxygenate the blood leading to dangerously low levels of oxygen in the bloodstream), type 2
diabetes mellitus with diabetic nephropathy,(a chronic condition where the body does not produce or
properly use insulin resulting in complications with damage to nerves throughout the body including the
heart) chronic kidney disease, stage 3 (moderate kidney damage where the kidneys are not filtering waste
and fluid as effectively as they should leading to build-up of waste products in the blood which can cause
high blood pressure), and hypertensive heart disease without heart failure (a heart condition caused by
long term high blood pressure, which can put extra strain on the heart increasing pressure in the arteries
and or, over time, can lead to thickening of the heart muscle). Record review of Resident #88's admission
MDS dated [DATE] revealed his BIMS (a score used to assess cognitive function) was 12 out of 15
indicating he had moderate cognitive impairment in decision making, had clear speech and was able to
make himself understand and could understand others. The MDS also indicated he used a walker for
mobility and required maximum assistance with bathing, dressing and personal hygiene and moderate
assistance with toileting, bed mobility and transfers. Section I of the MDS for Active Diagnoses had him
coded as having, 13. Medically Complex Conditions, and 10700. Hypertension. Continued record review of

Resident #88 said he had no care concerns at that time, and consented to the observation of his
medication administration to be performed by MA A. MA A was observed obtaining Resident #88's BP and
HR, which he reported to surveyor as: BP=161/70 and HR=66. MA A stated, his blood pressure is a little
high today. MA A did not say what Resident #88's regular BP readings were, and surveyor was able to view
Resident #88's blood pressures in the EMR. MA A said that Resident #88 took BP medications that had
parameters (specific instructions or measurable factors that guide the proper and safe administration of
medications). Observed MA A remove multiple blister packets of medication from the MA cart he was using
and proceeded to read his computer screen and place pills in a 30 ml clear plastic cup, passing the blister
packet to surveyor after each pill was added to the cup. MA A passed surveyor a blister packet numbered

Residents Affected - Some
time. Follow-up interview and observation with MA A on [DATE] at 11:58 am regarding Resident #88's
Losartan and review of blister packet revealed there were two 1/2 tablets out of 60 left in the blister packet.
MA A said he realized after the medication administration pass with Resident #88 in the morning, that the
order for his Losartan was incorrect and needed to be changed. MA A said he had not noticed the change
in Resident #88's Losartan dose from 25mg, 1/2 tablet PO daily to 100mg, 1 tablet PO daily and thought he
had been administering the correct medication and correct dosage. MA A said he let Resident #88's charge
nurse know about the discrepancy and that Resident #88's order for Losartan needed to be clarified
because Losartan/POT TAB 25 MG. Give 1/2 tablet by mouth daily. Hold for SBP <110 or HR <60, was the
only Losartan blister pack and only Losartan medication on the medication aide cart for Resident #88. MA
A said that LVN A was notified around 9:30 am about Resident #88 receiving the incorrect dose of
medication and reviewed Resident #88's medications with LVN A at that time. MA A said LVN A told him
she would notify Resident #88's physician and get a clarification of Resident #88's Losartan order. MA A
said that a resident could potentially have low blood pressure if they did not receive enough medication or if
they received an incorrect dose of medication and that he had been trained on the 6 rights of medication
administration., he just did not recognize it was the wrong dose. Interview and observation with LVN A on
[DATE] at 12:00pm LVN A said MA A just told her earlier today around 10:00 am about the error in Resident
#88's Losartan and she advised MA A at that time she would contact Resident #88's physician to clarify or
change the order. When asked if she had already reached out Resident #88's physician about the error and
order, as it was already lunchtime, LVN A said she would do it now. LVN A pulled up Resident #88's EMR
on her computer screen on her nurse' cart and read the order for Losartan as Losartan Potassium Tablet
100 MG Give 1 tablet by mouth one time a day for hypertension hold if bp <110/60, pulse <60. LVN A said
she did not see any blister pack or any other medication or pill bottle for Resident #88's Losartan Potassium
Tablet 100 MG Give 1 tablet by mouth one time a day for hypertension hold if bp <110/60, pulse <60. LVN A
said the only blister pack she saw was for Resident #88's resident's Losartan/POT TAB 25 MG. Give 1/2
tablet by mouth daily. Hold for SBP <110 or HR<60 and the MA's gave Resident #88 his daily blood
pressure medications because the MAs gave the facility residents their scheduled medications. LVN A said
she did not know what MA A had documented. LVN A said she was unsure who was responsible for
verifying a residents physician order and usually it was the nurse who received the order from the
physician. LVN A said she was unaware of who was responsible for monthly medication reconciliation at the
facility and that she had been trained on the 6 Rights of Medication Administration. LVN A said a residents'
blood pressure could bottom out or a resident could become dizzy or unresponsive if they were given the
incorrect dose of blood pressure medication. Interview and observation with DON on [DATE] at 12:09 pm
the DON said she first found out about the order discrepancy in Resident #88's Losartan order from her
staff, LVN A and MA A. The DON confirmed that Resident #88's blister pack of Losartan revealed two (1/2)
tablets left in blister pack that read Losartan Pot Tab 25 MG Give 1/2/Tablet by mouth Daily Hold for
SBP<110 OR HR <60. Dated 30 TABS-delivered [DATE] and expired [DATE]. Record review with DON of
Resident #88's EMR order for Losartan revealed Losartan Potassium Tablet 100 MG Give 1 tablet by mouth
one time a day for hypertension hold if bp <110/60, pulse <60.The DON said she would speak with Medical
Director who was also Resident #88's attending physician and complete a facility medication error form, as
the Medical Director was in the facility. The DON said the Medical Director would reevaluate and assess
Resident #88, since he was in the building. The DON said the Pharmacy Consultant was the person
responsible for reconciliation of all facility resident medications. The DON said the Pharmacy Consultant
came to the facility monthly and completed

resident medication reconciliations. The DON said that there was no in-house staff member in the facility,
who was responsible for completing the monthly medication reconciliation reviews. The DON said that staff
had been trained on the 6 rights of medication administration. The DON said she was still investigating and
educating/reeducating staff. The DON said a resident could have increased blood pressure, or their blood
pressure could not be controlled properly if they did not receive the correct dose of blood pressure
medication. Interview with the Medical Director on [DATE] at 12:33 pm who was also the attending MD for
Resident #88 said he had been notified by LVN A and MA A, a short while ago regarding Resident #88's
Losartan order being incorrect. He said he had reviewed the residents file and found hospital records from
an [DATE] hospitalization and readmission and said it looked like the Losartan medication dosage changed
in [DATE] after Resident #88's readmission. The Medical Director said he was on his way to evaluate
Resident #88 and further assess the situation. The DON was present and said she would be completing a
facility medication error report, audit of at least Resident #88's orders and staff education/reeducation and
would provide copies to surveyor once completed. In a follow-up interview with the Medical Director/MD for
Resident #88, on [DATE] at 1:54 pm, he was notified by surveyor that upon continued record review, of
Resident #88's CMA MARS from [DATE], through [DATE], and physician Order Summary Reports from
[DATE], through [DATE], revealed Resident #88 had possibly received the incorrect dose of Losartan since
[DATE]. The Medical Director said without actual medication packs and observations of the incorrect dose
of Losartan being given to Resident #88 it would be difficult to definitively say the resident received the
incorrect dose for the entire time. When asked if he considered that length of time to be a significant error,
he said that sometimes Resident #88 had really good blood pressures and sometimes they were not good.
He said he believed Resident #88 was stable, despite the error and was also taking Hydralazine (a
medication primarily used to treat high blood pressure) if his blood pressure was up. The Medical Director
also said he had requested a nephrology (branch of medicine that deals with the kidneys) consult for
Resident #88 to ensure his kidneys were functioning ok and that Resident #88's laboratory test results so
far were ok for the resident's kidney function. When asked who reconciled the medications for the facility
monthly, he stated, as the Medical Director, I should have an answer for that, but I don't. The Medical
Director said I should be reconciling the medications monthly, but to be honest, I usually just sign the
orders. The Medical Director said he tried to make adjustments when he noticed changes or saw changes
in medication orders but said he was not sure who at the facility actually completed the monthly medication
reconciliation process, but they would be discussing and reviewing it. The Medical Director confirmed today
([DATE]) was the first day he was notified of the incorrect dose of Resident #88's Losartan and said the
medication error was one of the good things to come out of the survey process, , was catching things that
had been missed that would ultimately improve resident outcomes and thanked surveyor stating, good
catch. The Medical Director said he had already reassessed Resident #88 and based on his blood pressure
at that time, ordered a one-time does of Losartan. The Medical Director repeated that Resident #88 was
stable, and he would be meeting with the administrative team at the facility to discuss, review and improve
the medication reconciliation process. He said he had reviewed Resident #88's orders and found no other
errors or discrepancies. Record review on [DATE] at 1:56 pm of copy of handwritten Medication Order for
Resident #88 dated 8/19.Give Losartan 75 mg PO X 1 now. The order was signed by the Medical Director
and there was no time or year indicated on the order. Interview with MA A on [DATE] at 1:57 pm MA A said
he did not know why he documented that he had given Losartan 100 mg 1 tab PO daily instead of Losartan
25 MG 1/2 tab PO daily. MA A said he was used to documenting at the time of the medication
administration and had not

really looked at the blister pack until after the medication administration pass with the surveyor that morning
and had a chance to review it. MA A said he should not have documented incorrectly because there was no
Losartan 100 mg on the cart for Resident #88 as ordered and he had given the Losartan 25 mg 1/2 tab
instead. MA A said he was not sure how long he had incorrectly documented on Resident #88's MAR but
corrected it today as soon as he recognized his error, by reporting it to LVN A who was Resident #88's
charge nurse. MA A said he was unsure how long he had been giving Resident #88 Losartan 25 MG 1/2
tab PO, but said it was the only blister pack of Losartan on the cart for Resident #88. Telephone interview
with Pharmacy Consultant on [DATE] at 3:00pm said she was unaware of Resident #88's incorrect dose of
Losartan. They said they had been the Pharmacy Consultant for about 6-7 years and conducted monthly
consultations that included reconciliation of medications. They then said they did not conduct full MAR to
MD order to cart type of medication reconciliations. The Pharmacy Consultant said they reconciled the
orders at the facility. The Pharmacy Consultant said they did not understand how Resident #88''s Losartan
25 mg 1/2 tab to = 12.5 mg by mouth daily was still being delivered and said Pharmacy A should have the
correct medication prescription and wondered aloud, how the incorrect medication dose continued to be
delivered, stating, Why would Pharmacy A keep delivering the wrong medication?. When asked if they
thought that Resident #88 potentially receiving the incorrect dose of Losartan since [DATE], the Pharmacy
Consultant said Resident #88 's blood pressures looked good and had often had the medication held per
parameters, so perhaps the Medical Director should look at the 100 mg dose because Resident #88 was
being maintained on the lower 25 mg (1/2tab dose) per her own simultaneous, EMR record review. The
Pharmacy Consultant said today was the first day they became aware of Resident #88's Losartan
discrepancy and incorrect dose and said they did not remember doing a medication administration pass on
Resident #88 but had done Medication pass/MAR to cart reviews in the past and facility staff had
performed well. The Pharmacy Consultant said a possible outcome to the resident could be increased
blood pressures if they did not receive the correct dose of medication. The Pharmacy Consultant stated, I
really do not have an answer for how that happened and would be speaking with the facility about the
incident. Record review of facility pharmacy review binder on [DATE] at 3:06pm for [DATE] through [DATE]
revealed there were monthly pharmacy reviews conducted by Pharmacy Consultant, but there were no
letters of recommendations or changes in medication reviews or orders for Resident #88. In a follow up
interview with the DON on [DATE] at 3:12 pm she said the facility used Pharmacy A, but they were not fully
integrated/computerized with Pharmacy A and still had to fax orders to the pharmacy. The DON said LVN A
contacted Pharmacy A today with the faxed order for Losartan 100 mg one tablet by mouth daily, as
previously ordered in Resident #88's EMR from [DATE]. The DON said a cart search for another blister
pack of Resident #88's Losartan 100 mg tablets did not reveal any other Losartan medication for Resident
#88 except the incorrect dose of Losartan 25 mg Give 1/2 tab PO daily that was removed from the cart
after the medication administration pass. The DON said she had not completed her investigation as to how
long Resident #88 had received the incorrect dose of Losartan but based on her audit of Pharmacy A
delivery slips for Resident #88 since his admission to the facility in [DATE], she could only find pharmacy
delivery slips for the month of [DATE]. The DON said the only Losartan delivered for Resident #88 was on
[DATE] for Losartan POT TAB 25 MG.Qty 30. When asked if she thought Resident #88 potentially receiving
Losartan 25 mg 1/2 tab since [DATE] was a significant medication error, the DON did not answer. The DON
said MA A should not have been documenting that he administered the correct Losartan medication for
Resident #88 because it was not the correct dose as ordered and that would be considered falsifying
documentation. The DON said she was still conducting the medication error report and staff one

said she had only been the DON at the facility since the end of [DATE] and had previously been the ADON
at the facility. The DON said the Pharmacy Consultant was the person who completed the monthly
medication reconciliations at the facility. Interview with the Administrator on [DATE] at 3:46 pm who said she
the DON started in their roles at the facility around the same time, which was around the middle/end of
[DATE]. The Administrator said the DON was responsible for facility resident monthly medication
reconciliations along with the Pharmacy Consultant. The Administrator said she did not have anything to do
with the medication reconciliation process at the facility and had nothing to do with residents' medications.
The Administrator said the DON would be the on-site/in-house person responsible for monthly resident
medication reconciliations and was not aware of any issues with Resident #88's blood pressure medication.
The Administrator said she did not know anything about medications or risks. Interview with the DON on
[DATE] at 2:58pm surveyor requested the CMA MAR signature page for Resident #88's [DATE] MAR. The
DON advised surveyor there was no copy of any signature page for the CMA MAR. The DON was asked
which staff members initials were NPe, she replied, MA A. When the DON was asked how she could tell
which initials belong to which staff member, she said that NPe initials were MA A's and then said MA A and
another MA were the only MA's who passed Resident #88's medications and worked that cart and hall. The
DON then said that MA A was also the only MA who administered Resident #88's daytime medications on
[DATE] and admitted to the medication error. Requested a copy of the staffing schedule from [DATE] and
in-service trainings with staff. [DATE] at 3:10pm Telephone interview with Pharmacy A on [DATE] at 3:10 pm

**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
observation, interview and record review, the facility failed to maintain clinical records in accordance with
accepted professional standards and practices that are complete and accurately documented for 1 of 11
residents (Resident #88) whose records were reviewed for accuracy and completeness.MA A administered
Losartan 25 mg give 1/2 tablet to equal 12.5mg by mouth daily to Resident #88 and documented they
administered Losartan 100 mg give 1 tablet by mouth daily. This failure could place residents at risk for less
than therapeutic benefits and/or not receiving ordered medications due to incomplete documentation.

[AGE] year old male who admitted to the facility on [DATE] with some of the following diagnoses: acute
respiratory failure with hypoxia, (a condition where the lungs cannot adequately oxygenate the blood
leading to dangerously low levels of oxygen in the bloodstream), type 2 diabetes mellitus with diabetic
nephropathy,(a chronic condition where the body does not produce or properly use insulin resulting in
complications with damage to nerves throughout the body including the heart) chronic kidney disease,
stage 3 (moderate kidney damage where the kidneys are not filtering waste and fluid as effectively as they
should leading to build-up of waste products in the blood which can cause high blood pressure), and
hypertensive heart disease without heart failure (a heart condition caused by long term high blood
pressure, which can put extra strain on the heart increasing pressure in the arteries and or, over time, can
lead to thickening of the heart muscle). Record review of Resident #88's admission Minimum Data Set
(MDS) dated [DATE] revealed his Brief Interview for Mental Status (BIMS) (a score used to assess
cognitive function) was 12 out of 15 indicating he had moderate cognitive impairment in decision making,
had clear speech and was able to make himself understand and could understand others. The MDS also
indicated he used a walker for mobility and required maximum assistance with bathing, dressing and
personal hygiene and moderate assistance with toileting, bed mobility and transfers. Section I of the MDS
for Active Diagnoses had him coded as having, 13. Medically Complex Conditions, and 10700.

performed by MA A. Observation and interview with MA A on 8/19/25 at 9:16 am of Resident #88's morning
medication administration pass. MA A was observed obtaining Resident #88's BP and HR, which he
reported to surveyor as: BP=161/70 and HR=66. MA A stated, his blood pressure is a little high today. MA A
did not say what Resident #88's regular BP readings were, and surveyor was able to view Resident #88's
blood pressures in the EMR. MA A said that Resident #88 took BP medications that had parameters
(specific instructions or measurable factors that guide the proper and safe administration of medications).

or potential for actual harm
Residents Affected - Some
pack and only Losartan medication on the medication aide cart for Resident #88. MA A said that LVN A was
notified around 9:30 am about Resident #88 receiving the incorrect dose of medication and reviewed
Resident #88's medications with LVN A at that time. MA A said LVN A told him she would notify Resident
#88's physician and get a clarification of Resident #88's Losartan order. MA A said that a resident could
potentially have low blood pressure if they did not receive enough medication or if they received an
incorrect dose of medication and that he had been trained on the 6 rights of medication administration., he
just did not recognize it was the wrong dose. Interview with MA A on 8/19/25 at 1:57 pm MA A said he did
not know why he documented that he had given Losartan 100 mg 1 tab PO daily instead of Losartan 25
MG 1/2 tab PO daily. MA A said he was used to documenting at the time of the medication administration
and had not really looked at the blister pack until after the medication administration pass with the surveyor
that morning and had a chance to review it. MA A said he should not have documented incorrectly because
there was no Losartan 100 mg on the cart for Resident #88 as ordered and he had given the Losartan 25
mg 1/2 tab instead. MA A said he was not sure how long he had incorrectly documented on Resident #88's
MAR but corrected it today as soon as he recognized his error, by reporting it to LVN A who was Resident
#88's charge nurse. MA A said he was unsure how long he had been giving Resident #88 Losartan 25 MG
1/2 tab PO, but said it was the only blister pack of Losartan on the cart for Resident #88. Interview with the
DON on 8/19/25 at 3:12 pm she said LVN A contacted Pharmacy A today with the faxed order for Losartan
100 mg one tablet by mouth daily, as previously ordered in Resident #88's EMR from 1/8/25. The DON said
a cart search for another blister pack of Resident #88's Losartan 100 mg tablets did not reveal any other
Losartan medication for Resident #88 except the incorrect dose of Losartan 25 mg Give 1/2 tab PO daily
that was removed from the cart after the morning medication administration pass. The DON said based on
her audit of Pharmacy A delivery slips for Resident #88 since his admission to the facility in December
2024, she could only find pharmacy delivery slips for the month of June 2025. The DON said the only
Losartan delivered for Resident #88 was on 6/13/25 for Losartan POT TAB 25 MG.Qty 30. The DON said
MA A should not have been documenting that he administered the correct Losartan medication for
Resident #88 because it was not the correct dose as ordered and that would be considered falsifying
documentation. Interview with DON on 8/20/25 at 2:58pm and requested the CMA MAR signature page for
Resident #88's [DATE] MAR. The DON advised surveyor there was no copy of any signature page for the
CMA MAR. The DON was asked which staff members initials were NPe, she replied, MA A. When the DON
was asked how she could tell which initials belong to which staff member, she said that NPe initials were
MA A's and then said MA A and another MA were the only MA's who passed Resident #88's medications
and worked that cart and hall. The DON then said that MA A was also the only MA who administered
Resident #88's daytime medications on 8/19/25 and admitted to the medication error. Record review on
8/20/25 at 4:02pm of facility Medication Discrepancy Report dated 8/19/25 at 9:20 am revealed the
following: Check items that are applicable: 3). Wrong Dose.Answer YES or NO 1. Was the order written
correctly? Yes, was check marked.2. Did you follow the THREE RULES? -LOOK at the medicine as you
