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. **NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on observations, interviews and record reviews, 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 1 of 19 residents (Resident #42) reviewed for pharmacy services. LVN A failed to ensure Resident # 42's medications were secure and left physician ordered medications at the bedside. LVN A failed to ensure Resident #42 swallowed her medications. These failures could place residents at risk for not receiving the therapeutic effects of ordered medications and consuming medications that were not ordered for them. Findings include: Record review of Resident #42's quarterly MDS dated [DATE] reflected an [AGE] year-old female who was admitted to the facility on [DATE]. She had diagnoses which included hypertension (elevated blood pressure), stroke (damage to the brain from interruption of its blood supply), and history of urinary tract infection (infections that occur in any part of the urinary system) Resident #42 had a BIMS score of 10 which indicated her cognition was moderately impaired. Record review of Resident #42's physician orders dated January/2024 reflected Resident #42 had orders for medications to be administered at least once a day which included including cranberry supplement (for urinary health), potassium (to treat low potassium), calcium (osteoporosis), vitamin B12 (for malnutrition), vitamin D3 (bone health), Plavix (to prevent blood clots), Lasix (fluid overload), Remeron (appetite stimulant), and Mybertriq (to treat overactive bladder). Record review of Resident #42's Medication Administration Record for 01/22/2024 reflected LVN A had administered the medications ordered to be given between 06:00 AM-10:00 AM. Record review of Resident #42's physician orders dated January 2024 did not reflect an order for the resident to self-administer medications. Record review of Resident #42s medical records did not reflect an assessment of the resident's ability to self-administer medications safely was completed.

F 0755 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Few Review of Resident #42's Care Plan for January 2024 did not reflect Resident #42 was to be allowed to self-administer her own medications. During an observation and interview on 01/22/2024 at 10:33 AM, Resident #42 was noted to be sitting in a wheelchair in her room with an over-the-bed table in front of her. No staff were in the room. Resident was alone. paper towel with 2 (two) small, white pills lying on it was noted on the table top along with a small plastic medication cup with 1 (one) large white capsule and 1 (one) large dark red capsule in it. Resident #42 picked up one of the small white pills and put it into her mouth. After taking a sip of water, Resident #42 picked up the second small white pill, placed it in her mouth and took a sip of water. Resident #42 could not identify what the 2 white pills were. She then pushed the plastic medication cup with the 2 capsules in it back on the table and said she wanted to trade one of the capsules. She could not identify the capsules. Resident #42 said some staff stayed with her until she took her medicine and some of the staff left her medications with her to take on her own. During observations at 10:47 AM, LVN A returned to Resident #42's room, picked up the plastic medication cup with the 2 capsules in it and asked resident #42 why she had not taken those medications. Resident #43 told the nurse that she did not like to take all her medications at the same time and was waiting a little while to take the white capsule. LVN A identified the white capsule as potassium and asked Resident if she would take it. Resident #42 then took the white capsule, placed it in her mouth, and took a sip of water. Resident #42 told LVN A she did not want to take the red capsule and that she wanted to trade it for a tablet of the same drug. Resident #42 told LVN A that she could swallow tablets easier than capsules. LVN said the red capsule was a cranberry supplement and she would check the resident's orders and get back with the resident. During an interview with LVN A on 01/22/2024 at 10:41 AM, she said she left Resident #42's medications on the over-the-bed table for the resident to take. LVN A said she was supposed to stay with the resident until she had taken all her medications. LVN A said the policy for administering medications was for the nurse to stay with the resident to ensure the medications are taken. LVN A did not respond to being asked if there was a reason for leaving the medications at bedside and not ensuring the resident took her medications. During an interview with LVN B on 01/22/2024 at 11:40 AM, she said the nurses were responsible for administering medications to residents. LVN B said nurses were required to stay with each resident until medications were taken and swallowed. During an interview with the DON on 01/22/2024 at 11:05 AM, she said she expected the nurses to stay with the residents when giving medications and ensure they took them. She said residents who did not take their medications were at risk for not receiving the intended therapeutic effect of their medications. She said residents could hoard their untaken medications and risk overdosing themselves and residents who wander may take unattended medications if left sitting out. Record review of the facility's general policy titled Administering Medications including the following: 24. Residents may self-administer their own medications only if the Attending Physician, in conjunction with the Interdisciplinary Care Planning Team, has determined that they have the decision-making capacity to do so safely.
