the prescribed medications. During this time C1 was observed to start having a seizure, emergency services were then called. Before emergency services arrived the pharmacy came by and dropped off C1's medication. Emergency services checked C1 and were notified about C1 missing their medication and were informed the medication was now available. Decision was made to give C1 the medication they were missed and C1 was to be monitored for an hour. After an hour C1 was declared medically stable and did not need to go to the hospital. Facility contacted C1's conservator who agreed that C1 did not need to go to the hospital. Based on the information obtained through interviews and documentation it was found that C1 did have a seizure due to not receiving their medication timely but it was not the facilities fault. Facility contacted the pharmacy the day before when they realized C1 did not receive their medication and followed up again the next morning. As a result of the pharmacy failing to drop off the medication timely the facility decided to go with another pharmacy. Therefore all three allegations are deemed Unsubstantiated at this time. No deficiencies cited. Exit Interview conducted.
