Medication Security and Labeling Deficiencies
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to ensure that medication carts were locked and secured when unattended, as observed on two separate occasions. On one occasion, a medication cart in the Middle Hall was found unlocked and unattended, out of the visual sight of a nurse. The LPN responsible for the cart stated that she had counted the cart at shift change and believed she had locked it, but it was found unlocked. On another occasion, a second medication cart was also found unlocked and unattended, which was confirmed by the returning LPN who acknowledged that the cart should have been locked when not in use. Additionally, during an inspection of the medication storage room, it was discovered that two containers of Calmoseptine ointment did not have expiration dates. This was verified by the Assistant Director of Nursing, who subsequently removed the medications from the room. The facility's policy mandates that all drugs and biologicals be stored in locked compartments and that only authorized personnel have access to the keys. Despite in-service training provided to the nursing staff on securing medications, the deficiency in securing medication carts and ensuring proper labeling of medications was evident.
Medication Storage Deficiency
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to ensure that a resident, identified as R42, did not have medication at the bedside, which could lead to unsafe self-administration. The facility's policy allows bedside medication storage only for residents who are able to self-administer medications, with a written order from the prescriber and approval from the interdisciplinary resident assessment team. However, R42, who had a Brief Interview for Mental Status (BIMS) score of 12 indicating moderate cognitive impairment, did not have a physician's order or a care plan for self-administration of medication. During an observation, a container of Hibiclens antiseptic skin cleanser was found on R42's bedside table. A registered nurse confirmed the presence of the medication and removed it, acknowledging it should not have been in the resident's room.
