32 | The investigation revealed the following:
Allegation: Staff are not providing resident with their medication as prescribed.
It is alleged that for the past four months S1 has refused to assist R1 with medication. LPA interviewed 6 Residents and 5 out of 6 residents denied the allegation, R1 stated that MedTechs/Caregivers assist with medication, however, their doctor is not signing off on a new order. LPA interviewed 3 staff and each denied the allegation and stated they always assist resident with medication upon request and hav never witnessed other staff refuse to assist residents with medication. S1 stated that they do not administer medication but do help the residents with doctor appointments and reordering medication, however, sometimes certain medication need a new doctors order or sometimes are waiting for the insurance to pay for the mediation therefore a delay may happen in these situations. LPA conducted a medication review and did not observe any issues with medication.
Based on statements and interviews conducted with Staff/Residents, and review of medication, there was not enough supportive evidence to concur with the reported allegation. Although the allegation may have happened or is valid, there is not a preponderance of evidence to prove the alleged violation did or did not occur, therefore the allegation is UNSUBSTANTIATED. Exit interview held, and a copy of this report was provided. |
