32 | Facility staff mismanaged resident's medication.
Documents obtained indicates that resident (R1) arrived at the facility on 3/23/20. Interviews with the licensee and live-in caregiver, revealed that R1 arrived on an ambulance and that R1 did not arrive with all medications and doctor's orders. On 3/30/20, the licensee stated in an interview with a Licensing Program Analyst that it took three days before she was able to secure all doctors orders and medications for R1. The licensee stated to this analyst on 4/26/20 that she was able to get doctor's orders and resident medications by the next day. Licensee should not have accepted R1 without verifying that all medications had been secured at admission to ensure that the facility could meet the residents medication needs.
Staff not administering resident's medication as prescribed
In an interview with the licensee on 3/30/20, the licensee states that when the resident was admitted to the facility, "they were only given 2 out of 10 medications that the resident was prescribed" R1 was also prescribed the drug, Coumadin, and the licensee did not administer the medication because the licensee failed to obtain updated lab work that is required to administer the medication.
Based on interviews conducted and records reviewed, this analyst finds the above stated allegation to be SUBSTANTIATED - a finding that means that the allegation is valid because the preponderance of the evidence standard has been met.
