This was evident for one (1) of seven (7) sampled residents. Resident identifier: #7. Facility census: 101. Findings included: a) Resident #7 The medical record was reviewed on 07/08/19 and 07/09/19. On 02/20/19 the consultant pharmacist completed a consultation report whereby she recommended to discontinue the [MEDICATION NAME] (anti-anxiety medication) 0.5 milligrams every four (4) hours prn (as needed), unless the physician deemed the medication should not be discontinued at that time. The physician accepted the recommendation to discontinue the prn [MEDICATION NAME]. The physician and director of nursing (DON) signed the pharmacy consultation report form on 02/22/19. A nurse progress note dated 05/17/19 conveyed that the resident's responsible party expressed in a telephone conversation earlier that day her concern about the resident no longer having the prn order for [MEDICATION NAME]. After first speaking with the Hospice, the nurse re-entered the order for [MEDICATION NAME] every four (4) hours prn per order of the resident's attending physician. A telephone interview was conducted with the resident's responsible party on 07/09/19 at 3:45 PM. She said she was unaware that the resident's [MEDICATION NAME] was discontinued until about the middle of May, 2019, at which time the resident had a urinary tract infection and was scratching herself. Upon inquiry as to whether she was informed in (MONTH) 2019 of the discontinuation of the [MEDICATION NAME], she replied in the negative. An interview was conducted with the DON and the administrator on 07/09/19 at 4:00 PM. After they reviewed nurse progress notes, physician visit notes, and the 02/25/19 care plan meeting notes, they reported they were unable to find evidence that the responsible party was notified when the [MEDICATION NAME] was discontinued in (MONTH) 2019. 2020-09-01
