9/10/2025. I was not able to administer the IV vancomycin because the IV pump was malfunctioning. I called the pharmacy and was told that the pharmacy had to receive the malfunctioning pump back before
they would send a replacement IV pump. I spoke with the in-house nurse practitioner, [Name of APRN #1], who was in the building at that time. The nurse practitioner gave an order to hold the vanco, but I don't remember if the NP [nurse practitioner] said to hold the vanco for one dose or for one day. On 9/11[2025] there was a stat lab to check his vancomycin level. I had a conversation with a provider regarding the results of the vanco level and it would have been [APRN #1's name] I would have called. I can't remember if I told [APRN #1's name] that the pump was still not there. I called the pharmacy again regarding the IV pump and was told the pump would be delivered that day. The pump arrived before the end of my shift on
the day before he went to the hospital. During an interview on 10/09/2025 at 10:37 AM the Administrator stated, Nurses are educated in orientation regarding medication administration and the associated processes, including ordering medications and equipment from the pharmacy. The expectation was that when a resident was admitted their medication orders were sent to the pharmacy. The facility had previously had issues regarding medication availability and administration, and it was a topic they all focused on. The process with the pharmacy was to deliver the medications and any equipment on their next run. If medication was not available from the pharmacy, the nurses had access to the [name of automated medication dispensing machine] and the pharmacy was able to get medications from a sister pharmacy if necessary. During an interview on 10/10/2025 at 2:06 PM with the DON when asked regarding the significant medication errors related to the administration of vancomycin and cefepime for Resident #1 the DON stated, I am new to the facility.
