On 07/25/2024 at 8:55 AM, during medication administration observation, a nurse pulled out of the Residents Affected - Few medication cart an empty medication packet labeled Lasix Oral Tablet 40 mg. The nurse explained the Lasix was not available in the cart and would order it from the pharmacy. The nurse reported did not know how long it would take the pharmacy to deliver the Lasix. The nurse confirmed the Lasix was not administered to Resident R56 along with the rest of Resident R56's medication.
On 07/26/2024 in the morning, review of Resident R56's medication administration record revealed the nurse had documented administered Lasix Oral Tablet 40 mg on 07/25/2024 at 9:24 AM.
The medical record lacked documented evidence of where the nurse had obtained the administered medication from.
On 07/26/2024 at 12:30 PM, the Director of Nursing (DON), explained Lasix was a medication available in
the Pyxis (an automated medication dispensing system) which the nurse could have accessed. The DON further explained the Nurse could have also requested medication from the pharmacy, however, the Pyxis was the first choice to best administer medication to residents in a timely manner as ordered.
On 07/26/2024 at 2:05 PM, the DON confirmed the Lasix administered to Resident R56 had not been removed from
the Pyxis and also confirmed the pharmacy did not provide the medication to the Nurse. The DON further explained had contacted the nurse who admitted to the DON the Lasix administered to Resident R56 was borrowed from another nurse and belonged to another resident. The DON acknowledged the Lasix belonging to another resident should not have been borrowed from another nurse, both for safety reasons and it created a shortage of medication for another resident.
A policy titled Medication Administration General Guidelines revised 01/01/2023, documented medications were to be administered as prescribed in accordance with good nursing principles and practices. Medications supplied for one resident were never to be administered to another resident.

A Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) indicated Resident R188 had been admitted on [DATE REDACTED] around 6:00 PM, was dependent on tube feeding (TF), and was NPO (nothing per Orem or nothing by mouth). The LPN explained Resident R188 had requested water, but due to swallowing difficulties, Resident R188 could not drink. The LPN further explained the TF solution had caused Resident R188 stomach discomfort, leading to a hold on the TF while awaiting instructions.
On 07/23/2024 at 10:11 AM, Resident R188 expressed the tube feeding (TF) and water flushes had not been administered immediately upon admission because the TF pumps were not working properly and had to be changed three times. Resident R188 verbalized upon receiving a small amount of TF infusion, Resident R188 experienced stomach discomfort, leading to the TF being held and no water flushes being given. Resident R188 indicated the following day after admission had requested a sip of water because Resident R188's mouth was very dry and uncomfortable, making it hard to cough out the phlegm but the LPN had declined to honor the request.
The Dietitian assessment dated [DATE REDACTED], documented Resident R188's hydration needs as follows:
-1080 ml of free water.
-Flush order: 250 ml every 6 hours (1000 ml/day).
-Flush the enteral tube with 30 ml of water before and after each medication administration.
