Record review of Resident #1's progress notes dated 1/1/24 through 1/30/24 revealed there was no nursing
entry made on 1/14/24 and no entry indicating the medications were refused or the physician was notified.
An entry dated 1/17/24 at 10:39 PM by LVN H reflected: Resident stated she did not get her medication on
Sunday night [1/14/24]. Resident agitated and wanting to take her night medication at [8:30 PM] every day.
This nurse inform medication aide to give her medications at [8:30 PM] as requested.
During an interview on 1/30/24 at 11:01 AM, MA B stated if a resident did not wish to take their medications
at the time they were offered, she would circle back and try again. If they still did not wish to take them, she
would attempt to find out the reason and then go and report it to the charge nurse. She stated the charge
nurse handled the situation from that point on and it was the charge nurse's responsibility to document the
missed doses. MA B stated she had the issue come up a couple of times on her hall but did not recall ever
having an issue with Resident #1. She stated Resident #1 had taken her medications that morning and was
participating in activities at the time of the interview.
During an interview on 1/30/24 at 11:22 AM, LVN C stated if a resident did not want their medications and
preferred them at a given time, the MA or nurse should go back and attempt to give them at that time. She
stated if the time requested was outside the dose range, the nurse should call the physician and obtain
guidance. She stated some medications may conflict with others due at a later time so it was up to the
physician to determine whether it was okay to administer them. LVN C stated any changes or medication
refusals should be documented in the MAR and progress notes and it was the nurse's responsibility to
ensure the documentation was completed. She stated the risk for missing medications depended on the
medication as they were prescribed for a reason. She stated, if a resident missed a blood pressure
medication, it could cause an increase in their blood pressure and that was why they needed to let the
physician know. LVN C stated she cared for Resident #1 and, from what she had heard, Resident #1 had
preferences for her medication times and would call and let them know when she wanted them.

An observation and interview on 1/30/24 at 12:27 PM revealed Resident #1 was in her room, sitting in her
wheelchair, clean and well-groomed. Resident #1 complained she had missed her evening medications on
1/14/24. She stated it was a Sunday night about 7:30 PM and a MA came in to deliver her medications. She
stated she told the MA it was too early and she did not want them yet. She could not remember the name of
the MA. Resident #1 stated she later got changed and was waiting for him to return; she was playing a
game on her phone and fell asleep. She stated she did not wake up until the next morning and remembered
she did not get her medications the evening before. She stated she called for the morning nurse [LVN C]
and complained to her that she had not received her medications the evening prior. Resident #1 stated LVN
C asked her if she had called the evening nurse and asked about the medications and she told the nurse,
No, because I was sleeping and it's not my job. Resident #1 stated she became angry and asked to speak
to a manager. Resident #1 stated Unit Manager A came to see her and she reported the situation to him.
She stated Unit Manager A returned later and stated he had spoken with the MA who admitted he had
forgotten to follow-up on the medications but he had checked on her three times and she had been
sleeping. Resident #1 stated she did not believe that was true because staff usually woke her up to take her
medications. She stated Unit Manager A told her he planned to write-up the staff involved and give
additional training and asked her if she felt better about the situation. Resident #1 stated she told him it did
not make her feel better and she was going to call the State and make sure it didn't happen again. Resident
#1 stated the Administrator came to see her the next day to investigate and she told the Administrator she
did not want this to happen to other residents. Resident #1 stated the staff had previously offered to change
her dose times but she refused and wanted the dose times to remain as they were.
In an interview on 1/30/24 at 1:30 PM, LVN D stated residents had a right to refuse their medications and
the MA or nurse should try to determine the cause. She stated the MA could try again and administer the
medication if it was still within the dose window, otherwise they should report the refusal to the charge
nurse. She stated it was the nurse's responsibility to determine the reason for the refusal, notify the
physician and RP, and document the refusal and physician contact in the MAR and progress notes, and
follow the physicians' orders.
During an interview on 1/30/24 at 1:35 PM, Unit Manager A stated he was aware of Resident #1's
complaint about missing her evening medications on 1/14/24. He stated they had in-serviced the staff and
had 1 on 1 counseling with the MA involved, [MA E]. He stated he had done a full assessment of Resident
#1 and she did not appear to have any adverse effects . He stated the pharmacy consultant had also come
and provided 1 on 1 training to the medication aides related to medication rights and medication errors. Unit
manager A stated staff should always follow the rights of medication administration. Medications could be
administered 1 hour before to 1 hour after the scheduled dose time. He stated, if a resident did not take
their medication, the MA should notify the charge nurse and could try again if it was still within the dosage
window. He stated medications should never be signed as administered unless the medication was taken
by the resident. He stated the medications were not signed out in the instance with Resident #1 and the MA
was waiting for her to call and let him know she was ready. He stated the MAs did not document medication
refusals. Unit Manager A stated the MA should report the occurrence to the charge nurse who then should
assess the resident and document the refusal as they are responsible to follow-up with the resident and
intervene when necessary. Contact information was requested for the MA and the LVN who worked with
Resident #1 on 1/14/24.
During a follow-up interview with LVN C on 1/30/24 at 2:30 PM, she stated she spoke with Resident #1 on
the morning of 1/15/24 and she complained that she had missed her medications the evening before. She
stated Resident #1 told her she had initially declined her medications because

of an upset stomach. She stated Resident #1 told her the MA returned a second time and she told him she
was not ready and asked him to leave the meds on her table and he refused. LVN C stated she had asked
Resident #1 if she had called for her medications when she was ready for them, and she felt Resident #1
was annoyed with her for asking. She stated she reported the matter to Unit Manager A. LVN C stated she
assessed Resident #1 and did not note any adverse reactions to missing her medications .
Residents Affected - Few
During an observation and interview on 1/30/24 at 3:22 PM, LVN F was observed performing a medication
pass. After the medication pass, LVN F stated if a resident had refused to take their medications when
offered, she would have tried to determine why they did not want their medications and when they would
want to take them. If the time was outside the administration window, she would document the refusal,
notify the physician and RP and document the event in the progress notes.
During a telephone interview with MA E on 1/30/24 at 3:45 PM, he stated he was aware of Resident #1's
complaint about missing her medications on 1/14/14. He stated he attempted to administer medications to
Resident #1 that evening and she told him she was nauseated and wanted to wait and asked him to come
back later. MA E stated he reported what she told him to RN G. MA E stated he returned to Resident #1's
room to try again at around 8:30 PM and she told him she would call when she was ready for them. MA E
stated he locked her medications in his cart and forgot about it afterward. He stated his shift ended at 10:00
PM and he did not recall notifying anyone else about medications and repeated that he had informed the
charge nurse when she initially refused them. He stated he did not notify the oncoming shift about the
missed doses and should have taken it up with the nurse. He stated he did not document the missed doses
anywhere because he did not have access to do so. When asked about the risks to residents if there was a
failure to administer their medications, MA E stated, I did not fail to administer the medications. I attempted
to give them. Failing is when you don't go; I went.
In an interview on 1/30/24 at 3:57 PM, Unit Manager A provided contact information for RN G. Attempts to
call RN G two times were unsuccessful and no voicemail box was available to leave a message.
In an interview with the DON on 1/30/24 at 5:01 PM, she stated all residents had a right to refuse
medications. If a resident requested to take them later and they were still within the administration window
they should be administered. If outside the administration window or the resident outright refused the
medication, the charge nurse should call the physician and discuss the situation and follow their guidance.
She stated the nurse should document the refusal. The DON stated she was aware of the incident involving
Resident #1 and MA E and had investigated it. She stated MA E told her Resident #1 had initially refused
the medications complaining of nausea and refused them again a second time. She stated MA E told her
he had reported the situation to the nurse. The DON stated she questioned RN G and he told her he was
not aware Resident #1 had refused her medications. She stated she did not investigate the night nurse
because the matter was between MA E and RN G. She stated the night nurse would not have known the
medications were not administered because the MAR would only reveal medications due to be
administered on their shift. She denied receiving any reports of medications left on the medication cart and
that MA E told her he had destroyed the medications after the resident refused them. The DON stated she
wrote up both employees the next day and could not tell what was what. She stated the pharmacy
consultant conducted in-service training with the MAs. The DON stated it was important for the nurses to
notify the physician when medications were missed so that the physician could determine if they needed to
order different medications or change the plan of care. She stated the general risk for missing medications
depended on the medication and number of doses missed.

During a follow-up interview and record review with Unit Manager A and the DON on 1/30/24 at 5:40 PM,
Unit Manager A stated he notified the physician the next day [1/15/24] and informed them of the missed
doses. He stated the resident was fully assessed and had no adverse reactions. He stated he monitored
MARs daily for missed doses or other concerns and discussed them in daily meetings. He stated, in
Resident #1s instance, the complaint came to him first thing in the morning before he had pulled his
reports. He stated Resident #1 had a thorough assessment and had no adverse effects. Unit Manager A
reviewed the missed medications and stated he did not believe the missed medications contributed to her
anxiety. He stated Resident #1 had a history of getting angry with staff and calmed down when they talked
to her. He stated they had offered to change her medication times in the past and she never wanted the
dose times changed. When deficient practice was discussed, the DON stated they did not feel they had
deficient practice as the resident had refused her medications. She stated the refusal was documented on
the MAR. When asked to identify the area on the MAR where the refusal was documented, the entries
revealed =. The associated legend on the MAR reflected the symbol meant Previously Scheduled. There
were no entries located on the MAR Legend which would indicate a resident refusal. Neither Unit Manager
A or the DON were able to explain how a refusal was documented on the MAR and no documentation was
provided to indicate anyone had documented Resident #1's refusal of her medications or that the physician
had been notified on 1/14/24.
In an interview with Physician I on 1/30/24 at 6:21 PM, he stated his Nurse Practitioner had been notified of
Resident #1 missing her evening medications and had discussed the issue with him. He stated he was not
certain when his Nurse Practitioner was notified. He reviewed the missed medications and did not believe
there had been any risk posed to the resident when the medications were missed.
Record review of an In-Service training Report dated 1/15/24 and conducted by Unit Manager A reflected,

acceptable without a MD's order and documentation of the MD's intervention for the missed dose. This
includes missed doses for new admissions. All other situations such as [patient's] refusal of a med or
treatment must be explained with appropriate MD notification. Additional notes must be documented in the
nurses notes.
-The MD must be notified of a [patient's] initial refusal of a med or tx; if there are three consecutive refusals
the MD must be notified again. MD's intervention MUST be documented!!!
