Lidocaine patches for her back yesterday and several days last week, and the week before. Resident #4
stated when she admitted to the facility, she was using the Lidocaine patches already and her doctor had
told her it was alright to continue to use them. She stated this was the only month (March) that had been
inconsistent, the other months had been fine, and she had received her patches without any problems.
Resident #4 stated she had asked every day, but sometimes they have them and sometimes they do not,
when I asked the lady that was supposed to put them on my back, she tells me the patches have been
ordered but they have not come in. Resident #4 stated she had been okay without them so far, her back
was stiff, but did not hurt, her back feels better when she has them, I still can do everything I usually do
without any pain.
In an interview on 03/27/24 at 2:00 p.m. with LVN B revealed if there was an over-the-counter medication
that required re-ordering than I would tell the DON or the central supply personal. LVN B stated the
Lidocaine patches are kept in the medication room on the shelf if you don't have any on the cart. If they are
not there or on the cart, then I would look on the other carts to see if there are any.
In an interview on 03/27/24 at 2:10 p.m. with LVN A revealed the over-the counter drugs are given by the
medication aide and not the nurse. If the medication needed to be reordered the medication aide would tell
me and I would reorder in the computer system. LVN A stated we have a lot of residents that are on
Lidocaine patches, I am not aware of needing to reorder the lidocaine patches for anyone.
In an interview on 03/27/24 at 2:20 p.m. with the DON and Administrator revealed the Lidocaine patches
had been a problem. The DON stated the doctors wanted to order the Lidocaine patches 5% and our
pharmacy formulary will not pay for those. The DON stated she was just made aware of this problem
yesterday. The DON stated she had contacted the physician and their nurse practitioners to inform them
that the Lidocaine patches 4% would be covered by the formulary on yesterday. I told the physicians that
the new orders should read Lidocaine patches 4%. The DON stated she was not aware the Resident #4
had not been receiving her lidocaine patches as the physician ordered.
An interview on 03/27/24 at 2:45 PM with the Medical Director revealed the physician was not aware of the
facility having had an issue with getting medications from the pharmacy . The DON informed me yesterday
that the Lidocaine patches that were ordered were not covered by the pharmacy and I had to order the
lesser strength. (4
%) I was not informed that Resident #4 had only been receiving Lidocaine patches inconsistently this
month. The facility was good about communicating with me, but I did not know about the failure to provide
medication that had been ordered.
