Medication Storage Deficiency
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to ensure proper storage of medications for a resident during a medication administration observation. A Licensed Vocational Nurse (LVN) left medication belonging to a resident in a medication cup on top of an unattended medication cart while she left the unit to find another nurse. This action was observed on January 28, 2025, at 8:35 AM. The LVN confirmed that the medications were left unsecured and out of her sight. The facility's policy, dated January 2024, requires that the medication supply be accessible only to licensed nursing personnel, pharmacy personnel, or staff members lawfully authorized to administer medications. Interviews with the Director of Staff Development and the Director of Nursing confirmed that medications should be secured and under the supervision of licensed personnel, and that nurses must not leave medications unattended. The Executive Director also stated that the expectation was for nurses not to leave medication unsecured.
Infection Control Lapse During Eye Drop Administration
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to ensure proper infection prevention and control practices during the administration of eye drops to Resident #35. The facility's policy on infection prevention and control, revised in January 2024, mandates the use of standard precautions, including hand hygiene and glove use when contact with bodily fluids is likely. Additionally, the facility's policy on medication administration for eye drops, dated January 2023, specifies that gloves should be worn during the procedure. However, during an observation on January 28, 2025, Licensed Vocational Nurse (LVN) #2 administered timolol maleate ophthalmic solution to Resident #35 without washing or sanitizing her hands and without wearing gloves. Resident #35, who was admitted to the facility on November 17, 2023, has a medical history of Alzheimer's disease with late onset, unspecified visual loss, and bilateral, severe primary open-angle glaucoma. The resident's care plan, initiated on November 18, 2023, directed staff to administer medication as ordered. Despite these directives, LVN #2 acknowledged not following the infection control policy during the eye drop administration. The Director of Staff Development and the Director of Nursing both confirmed that nurses are expected to adhere to the facility's infection control policy, which includes hand hygiene and glove use during such procedures. The Executive Director also stated that the expectation was for nurses to wear gloves and wash their hands when required.
