other nurses working on the first floor during night shift last night. When asked if RN #126 had notified the resident's physician or nurse practitioner of Resident #1 requesting her medications late, RN #126 stated that she had reached out to the DON via text message on how to proceed. Interview on 09/09/25 at 5:10 P.M. with the DON revealed Resident #1 tended to single-out one person and it happened to be RN #126 and there always was an issue with Resident #1 and RN #126. Resident #1 had care-planned interventions regarding medication administration. The DON stated that Resident #1's medications were due at midnight, and RN #126 was following the care plan to not wake Resident #1. At 4:30 A.M., Resident #1 began yelling and calling the nurse derogatory names. The DON verified another nurse in the facility could have approached Resident #1 to administer medications. She further confirmed that the RN refusing to administer Resident #1's medications, further elevated her behaviors.A follow-up interview on 09/15/25 at 8:00 A.M. with RN #126 revealed RN #126 verified it was her duty to administer medications and Resident #1 usually received her as needed medications with her scheduled medications. A follow-up interview on 09/15/25 at 12:05 P.M. with the DON verified RN #126 did not call Resident #1's physician or nurse practitioner to inquire about administering the resident's midnight medications late and verified Resident #1 could have been administered as needed pain medication. Interview on 09/15/25 at 3:20 P.M. with CNA #129 revealed Resident #1 pushed her call light around 4:00 A.M. and was very demanding and rude asking for her medications. RN #126 was on lunch at the time, so CNA #129 notified RN #126 when RN #126 returned from lunch. Review of the Disciplinary Action form dated 09/09/25 revealed RN #126 failed to administer scheduled medications causing a delay in care. It stated RN #126 failed to comply with standard nursing practices or facility policy and procedures. RN #126 was terminated from employment on 09/11/25.
