licensed pharmacist.
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
interview and record review, the facility failed to provide pharmaceutical services (including procedures that
assured the accurate acquiring, receiving, dispensing, and administering of all drugs and biologicals) to

hospitalization.

she was cognitively intact. Section N (Medications) reflected she was taking an antidepressant, a diuretic,
an opioid, and hypoglycemic.
Review of Resident #1's admission care plan, dated 05/22/24, reflected she was on diuretic therapy related
to edema (swelling) with an intervention of administering medication as ordered.
