32 | On 12/17/2021, LPA interviewed R1, who was unsure about medications, even though doctor’s notes indicate R1 is handling R2’s medications. R1 stated they checked R2’s glucose every evening and would give insulin if it measured over 250. Staff 1 (S1) stated R1 gets confused and S1 would try to supervise R1 regarding R2’s medications. When R2 returned from the hospital, they took the insulin and needles away from R1.
Regulation 87629- Injections indicates that the licensee can accept or retain a resident who requires injections, if the resident or an appropriately skilled professional administers the injections. It also indicates licensees who admit or retain residents who require injections are responsible to ensure injections are administered by as appropriately skilled professional should the resident require assistance. Community Care Licensing's Medications Guide version 8/30/2021 indicates only the resident who requires an injection or an appropriately skilled medical professional can administer an injection, not a family member.
