It was not until 12:00 pm, that the med-tech realized the error and then went to R1’s apartment and observed R1 sleeping. Med-tech woke up R1 and asked how R1 was feeling. R1 responded that R1 felt dizzy and tired.” On 1/26/23, LPA reviewed the incident report which indicates that emergency personnel were called and R1 had low blood pressure. The facility provided the wrong medication to R1 and failed to assist R1 with medication as prescribed by R1’s physician. Deficiency cited.
