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.
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
observation, interview, and record review, the facility failed to ensure all drugs and biologicals were stored
in locked compartments and controlled drugs must be stored in separately locked, permanently affixed
compartments for 1 of 1 container reviewed (Resident #3) for proper storage for destruction of narcotics.
Resident #3's, a DEA controlled substance (valium), was not stored appropriately in a double locked
container. This failure could place residents at risk of not receiving prescribed medications as ordered and
drug diversions. The findings include: Record review of Resident #3's face sheet dated 1/13/26 reflected the
resident was a [AGE] year-old male admitted on [DATE]. The resident's diagnoses included: surgical
aftercare on the digestive system, vertigo (dizziness) and intestinal obstruction. The RP was listed as a
family member. Record review of Resident #3's quarterly MDS dated [DATE] reflected the resident's BIMS
score was 13 indicative of no impairment in cognition. The resident's ADLs indicated the resident was
continent and only required supervision for transfer and mobility. The resident had no range of motion
impairments and used a walker as an assistive device. Record review of Resident #3's physician orders for
December 2025 reflected no order for diazepam (valium). Record review of Resident #3's December 2025
reflected no administration of diazepam (valium). Observation on 1/13/26 from 11:15 AM to 12:30 PM of
medication carts, and medication room revealed all narcotic medications were reconciled. [Cart 100, Cart
200, Cart 300, and Cart 400]. Further observation of the drug storage room (DON's Office) revealed there
was a double lock system in place. Further there was a locked container with narcotics and a biological
waste box with multiple medications in the vicinity of the locked container. Observation of inventory and
reconciliation of the locked narcotic cabinet revealed all narcotic drugs, and resident sheets were reconciled
by LVN E. Also, observation of the biological waste box no [NAME] locked with multiple medications
revealed one narcotic blister pack without a resident sheet in the waste box belonging to Resident #3. The
narcotic medication was diazepam 5 mg 1 tab PRN 30 minutes prior to imaging (dated 1/5/2026) for
Resident #3. During an interview on 1/13/26 at 12:25 PM, LVN E stated the narcotic blister pack found in
the biological waste basket was not correct for narcotic storage. LVN E stated the said medication was also
missing a corresponding resident medication sheet detailing the medication, dosage, and administration.
LVN E stated the lack of a resident medication sheet could lead to drug diversion. LVN E stated she had no
explanation why a narcotic sheet was not present with the narcotic medication found in the biological waste
box for destruction. During a telephone interview on 1/13/26 at 12:35 PM, the Pharmacist stated that
narcotic medications intended for destruction needed to be stored with other narcotics in a locked container
with the corresponding resident sheet. The Pharmacist stated the facility did not follow correct storage
procedures based on the narcotic blister sheet found in a waste box. The Pharmacist stated that not safely
storing narcotics and not having corresponding medication sheets could lead to drug diversion. During an
interview on 1/13/26 at 3:19 PM, the Administrator stated by per their drug diversion policy, -controlled
substances scheduled for destruction need to be stored in a 2-lock system. The Administrator stated the
facility's two lock system was a locked storage room in DON's Office with a locked container. The
Administrator stated the controlled substance needed a corresponding resident sheet. The Administrator
stated he had no explanation for Resident #3's blister pack found in a waste box not safely stored and no
resident sheet. The Administrator stated the former DON responsible for the destruction of storage room left
employment 12/12/25. During an interview on 1/13/26 at 3:57 PM, the current DON stated
