32 | Regarding the Allegation: Medication staff not properly trained. It was alleged that a Medication Technician (Med Tech) was not properly trained in preparing medications for residents who leave the facility for outings. Staff interviews indicated that Med Techs receive training from both a virtual Registered Nurse (RN) and an onsite Licensed Vocational Nurse (LVN). Training includes medication administration procedures and certification requirements. During an interview with S1, it was reported that the facility recently implemented a new system intended to reduce medication-related issues for residents who go on home visits. A review of training records confirmed that Med Techs receive three to six weeks of training, including shadowing. Interviews with the resident were not able to confirm this allegation.
Regarding the Allegation: Licensee retaliates against the resident. It was alleged that the facility retaliated against the resident. Interviews with R1, residents and staff unanimously denied this allegation.
Based on interviews, record review, and all information gathered, the above allegation(s) are determined to be UNSUBSTANTIATED.
Exit interview was conducted, and a copy of this report was provided to the Assistant Administrator.
