On the evening of February 08, 2025, Staff S1 was not prepared with the water pitcher when starting to provide medication to the residents. Staff S1 left the room to get water, with Resident R1's medication in hand.

Medication included Atorvastatin 40MG Tablet, Amlodipine 5MG Tablet and Clonazepam 0.5MG Tablet. Staff S1 immediately contacted the administrator.
