F 0760 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Some medication located on the cart and stated the directions were to administer one 0.5 mg tablet three times a day. ADON B then reviewed Resident #29's MAR and stated the directions were to administer ½ tablet to equal 0.25mg. ADON B then explained to MA C that the 0.5 tablet meant ½ tablet and not 0.5 mg. ADON B also demonstrated on the computer screen how to expand the directions for the medication which then revealed to give ½ tablet to equal 0.25 mg. ADON B stated staff should have been administering ½ tablet, but the medication was delivered wrong by the pharmacy. ADON B stated staff should have checked the dose before administering the medication. ADON B stated the risks to the residents if not receiving the ordered dose depended on the medications, but it could cause sedation. In an interview on 2/12/2025 at 3:20 p.m., the DON stated Resident #29's clonazepam was increased in September due to a transcription error. The DON reported that the nurse that entered the order was not available for interview and was currently off work.

The DON stated the pharmacy consultant was also responsible for monitoring medications because she checked the MARs and medications monthly for any concerns. The DON reported staff received training for medication administration upon hire and annually. The DON also stated the risk to the residents if the incorrect dose of medication was given depended on the medication but could be sedation or altered mental status. In an interview on 2/13/2025 at 11:43 a.m., NP D stated she gave an order to increase the clonazepam from 0.25 mg to 0.5 mg, but there must have been a transcription error.

F 0761 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Some Ensure drugs and biologicals used in the facility are labeled in accordance with currently accepted professional principles; and all drugs and biologicals must be stored in locked compartments, separately locked, compartments for controlled drugs. Based on observation, interview, and record review the facility failed to ensure all drugs and biologicals were labeled in accordance with currently accepted professional principles and secured properly for two (500 hall medication cart and 200 hall medication cart) of four medication carts reviewed for medication labeling and storage. 1. The facility failed to ensure eye drops stored on the 500-hall medication cart were labeled with open dates for two bottles of timolol eye drops, one bottle of dorzolamide eye drops, one bottle of brimonidine eye drops, and one bottle of latanoprost eye drops. 2. The facility failed to ensure medications were secured or attended by authorized staff when the medication cart in hall 200 was left unlocked and unattended in the hallway with a pill in a medicine cup on top of the cart. These failures could place residents at risk of misappropriation of medications or harm due to accidental ingestion of unprescribed mediations and of not receiving the intended therapeutic effects of prescribed medicine. Findings included: 1. In an interview and observation on 2/11/2025 at 9:46 a.m., the 500-hall medication cart contained two bottles of timolol eye drops, one bottle of dorzolamide eye drops, one bottle of brimonidine eye drops, and one bottle of latanoprost eye drops that were open and did not have open dates. MA C reported eye drops needed an open date because they were good for 30 or 45 days after being opened. MA C stated the MAs monitored the dates on the medications and wrote open dates on the bottles when they opened them. When asked what the risks were if open dates were not on eye drops, MA C responded they just had to have an open date. In an interview on 2/11/2025 at 10:21 a.m., ADON B stated staff administering medications were supposed to put open dates on eye drops because they were only good for so many days. ADON B stated the risk would be that they would not know how long the medication had been open, and it would depend on the manufacturer as to what side effects occurred. ADON B stated the staff administering the medications should have monitored the dates, and she spot checked the carts two to three times a month. In an interview on 2/12/2025 at 3:20 p.m., the DON stated eye drops needed an open date, so they would know when they were opened. The DON stated she expected the staff to use the manufacturer's expiration date but was not sure at that time. The DON stated the pharmacy consultant was responsible for monitoring the dates on medications in the medication carts, and all staff that administered medications should have checked the dates. The DON stated she expected staff to dispose of expired medications, and that the risk of using expired medications would just depend on the medication.
