32 | Per Plan of Corrections documents received on 1/20/2020, facility has a "three-way" check system in place to reduce medication error. Per LPA's observation, the "three-way" check was not followed as there was no doctors order on hand, medication was approved via electronic Medication Administration Record (eMAR) without a doctor's order, and accepted at facility without verification. Facility also failed to provide a stamp and signatures verification in each step of the "three-way" check system.
Facility's eMAR indicates that S1 gave R1 Fluphenazine on 1/16/2020 at 9:05 AM with a notation that medication was received from pharmacy and given. Facility's eMAR also indicates that on 1/16/2020 at 9:40 AM, S2 had went into the system to change the time of the medication to be administered and S2 confirmed that a review of doctor's order was not verified as S2 assumed the "three-way" check was completed.
Based on LPA information obtained during investigation, the preponderance of evidence standard has been met; therefore, the above allegation is found to be SUBSTANTIATED. California Code of Regulations (Title 22, Division 6, Chapter 8), are being cited on the attached LIC 9099D.
Exit interview conducted and two copies of report will be mailed requesting for a returned copy with a wet signature.
