This occurred during 1 of 28 medication pass observations. The findings include: On 1/30/18 at approximately 1:01 PM, RN (Registered Nurse) # 1 released one capsule of Tamsulosin 0.4 mg ER (extended release) from a punch card into his/her bare hand, then placed the capsule in a medicine cup and administered to Resident 202.
