stated there would be a new order for the new rate. RN A stated if the resident needed a change that would
be documented in the chart. RN A stated she did not see any changes in the resident's clinical record for a

included procedures that assured the accurate acquiring, receiving, dispensing, and administering of all
drugs and biologicals, to meet the needs of each resident for 1 of 23 residents (Residents #42) reviewed for
pharmacy services.
The facility failed to ensure Midodrine (a low blood pressure medication) given to elevate hypotension (low
blood pressure) was administered to Resident #42 as ordered by the physician.
This failure could place residents at risk of not receiving desired therapeutic outcomes, increased side
effects, or a decline in health.
Findings include:
Record review of Resident #42's admission face sheet dated 11/14/2023, reflected a [AGE] year-old female

included: rheumatoid lung disease with rheumatoid arthritis on multiple sites (a chronic inflammatory
disorder affecting many joints), systemic lupus erythematosus (inflammatory disease caused when the
immune system attacks its own tissues), pulmonary fibrosis ( scarring of the lung tissue), Sjogren
syndrome ( an immune disorder characterized by dry eyes and dry mouth), hypertension (elevated blood
pressure) and Percutaneous Endoscopic Gastrostomy (PEG) ( a flexible feeding tube placed through the
abdominal wall to allow nutrition, fluids and medications to be put directly into the stomach).
Record review of Resident #42's care plan date initiated 04/15/2022 reflected:
Focus: Resident #42 had a diagnosis of altered cardiovascular status related to hypotension (heart
condition related to low blood pressure) history.
Goal: Resident will remain free from symptoms of cardiac problems through the review date.
Interventions: Administer medications per physician's orders.
Record review of Resident #42's quarterly MDS , dated 09/16/2023, reflected the resident's BIMS was

resident was able to make herself understood. The resident had the ability to understand others. The
resident required extensive assistance of one staff for her bed mobility, transfers, dressing, toilet use and
personal hygiene. The MDS identified an active diagnosis of medically complex conditions.
Record review of Resident #42's Medication Review Report, dated on or before 11/14/2023, reflected
Midodrine 10 Mg. Give one tablet by PEG-tube three times a day for hypotension. Hold for systolic blood
pressure (the top blood pressure number which measures the pressure in the arteries when the heart
beats) greater than 130. Order start dated 02/17/2023.

had no concerns with her medications.
In an interview and record review on 11/15/2023 at 9:25 AM, the DON reviewed Resident #42's MAR. The
DON stated Resident #42 should have received the Midodrine if the resident's blood pressure was not
greater than 130. The DON stated the documentation reflected the Midodrine was held due to blood
pressure out of parameters. The DON stated Resident #42's blood pressure was not outside parameters.
The DON stated the risk to the resident was her blood pressure could go low. The DON stated the nurse
was responsible for medication administration accuracy. The DON stated the ADON was responsible for
monitoring the medication administrations accuracy daily. The DON stated the results of the monitoring
were discussed during the 24-hour meeting.

ADON M stated she did not see the Midodrine was held. ADON M stated the medication should have been
given. ADON M stated the risk of not administering the medication was the resident's blood pressure could
go lower. ADON M stated to prevent missing an error in the future, she would monitor the MAR closer.
In a telephone interview on 11/15/2023 at 10:03 AM, the Pharmacist stated the medication Midodrine was
to be given for low blood pressure. The Pharmacist stated when there was a parameter hold ordered by the
physician the order was to be followed. The Pharmacist stated the blood pressure readings when
