None of that prevented R5's IV medication from going unadministered as required.

The violation was classified as causing minimal harm or potential for actual harm, and inspectors noted it affected few residents. The finding falls under a federal tag that requires nursing homes to ensure services are provided in accordance with accepted standards of clinical practice.

The Administrator, the Director of Nursing, and a registered nurse all attended the exit conference on September 15, where inspectors reviewed the findings before closing out the inspection.

The inspection report does not describe what medication R5 was receiving, what condition it was meant to treat, or what, if any, consequences R5 experienced as a result of the lapse.
