11326 HEARTLAND OF PRESTON COUNTY 515072 300 MILLER ROAD KINGWOOD WV 26537 2009-02-12 309 E 0 1 IH3P11 **NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on observation, record review, review of manufacturer's dosing instructions, and staff interviews, the facility did not ensure antibiotics were administered at times that would maintain blood levels of the medication for optimal effect. Two (2) of nineteen (19) residents on the sample were identified as being affected, and review of the February medication administration records (MAR) for the 100 hall identified an additional two (2) residents. Resident identifiers: #52, #15, #95, and #51. Facility census: 106. Findings include: a) Resident #15 Review of the resident's medical record found that, on 01/19/09, [MEDICATION NAME] (an antibiotic) had been ordered given three (3) times a day pending the culture of the resident's [MEDICAL CONDITION] site. Review of his MARs revealed the antibiotic had been scheduled for administration at 8:00 a.m., 12:00 p.m., and 5:00 p.m. That meant the three (3) antibiotic doses were given in an approximately nine (9) hour period, leaving fifteen (15) hours between the 5:00 p.m. dose and the 8:00 a.m. dose on the following day. b) Resident #51 The resident's current orders included Bactrim DS to be given twice a day for five (5) days. The antibiotic was scheduled for administration at 9:00 a.m. and 5:00 p.m. on the MAR. This schedule provided for the doses for one (1) day to be given eight (8) hours apart, and the next dose would not be given for approximately sixteen (16) hours. c) Resident #52 The resident's current MAR indicated [REDACTED]. The antibiotic was scheduled for administration at 8:00 a.m., 12:00 p.m., and 5:00 p.m. d) Resident #95 A current order for Bactrim DS to be given twice a day for ten (10) days was noted on the resident's current MAR. The medication was scheduled to be given at 8:00 a.m. and 5:00 p.m. e) The director of nursing was interviewed on 02/11/09. When asked about the scheduling of antibiotics, she was unable to offer a reason for the current schedules. During a discussion regarding maintaining serum levels of certain drugs, especially antibiotics, she acknowledged it would be important to maintain the levels. f) Review of package inserts (obtained for in the Food and Drug Administration's website) from the pharmaceutical companies for each of these antibiotics found that, under the section for "Dosage and Administration", each included instructions that doses should be administered every twelve (12) hours if the medication was given twice a day and every eight (8) hours if given three (3) times a day. . 2014-06-01
