Per phone interview on 08/21/2024 at 10:30 a.m., MA I stated there was a list of residents that had crushed
and don't have crushed medications, the facility went by that list. That's what she was taught during
orientation. She was told to follow the list but when she started her shift on 08/20/2024 the list was not on
her cart. She voiced she had it on her cart and someone in the office took if off, she stated because they
knew State was coming in. MA I voiced on 08/20/2024 it was her first day alone doing medications and she
was nervous. MA I stated there was not anything on the medication name that would alert her that it is a do
not crush medication. It was listed on the list that was on the MA cart or in the MAR.
Interview on 08/21/2024 at 10:55 AM., MA J stated most of the time a do not crush med was noted in the
MAR. If it was not in the system staff were to inform a nurse or, staff were supposed to get that information
in report from the nurse who worked before they came on to the new shift. MA J stated it won't tell you on
the name (if a medication is do not crush) you have to read the back of the med book, that's usually on the
cart, it had a list of meds listed on there that were do not crush. MA J stated adverse effects for a resident if
they received crushed medications that did not require crushing were their blood pressure could go up, they
could get dizzy, they could throw up and some residents may break out in hives.
Interview on 08/21/2024 at 10:40 a.m., LVN A stated if a medication needed to be crushed it was noted in
