The MAR also did not have the medication Trazadone 50mg added to it although the medication had been ordered by NP #1 on 03/20/25. This resulted in Res #1 not receiving doses of the Trazadone on 03/20/25, 03/21/25, and 03/22/25.On 08/13/25 at 11:23 a.m., the DON was asked about Res #1's order for Seroquel that was prescribed for dementia.

The DON stated that prior to taking some time off they had instructed the ADON to hold off implementing any psychotropic medications (medications use to treat various mental health disorders) while they were gone. They were asked why Trazadone 50mg at bedtime was not added to the resident's medication regimen when it had been ordered by NP#1. They stated they told the ADON they would take care of those orders when they returned. They stated by the time they had returned from their time off, Res #1 had been discharged from the facility.On 08/13/25 at 11:41 a.m., the ADON was asked why they had not implemented the medication orders from NP #1 for Res #1 on 03/20/35. The ADON stated they were told by the DON not to implement psychotropic medications while they were off work. They stated they put those in a folder for the DON to take care of when they returned. On 08/14/25 at 12:37 p.m., the DON stated they felt it was probably not in the best interest of the resident to hold those orders until they had returned from their time off.
