On 10/10/17 in the morning, an inspection of the medication room revealed four vials of a clear liquid substance stored in the refrigerator. The vials had hand written labels with residents names. The labels on 3 of the 4 vials had been placed so that the original label identifying the type of medication was obscured and illegible. A Registered Nurse (RN) present at the time of inspection indicated all of the vials were for a long-acting insulin and could be identified by the size of the vial. The RN agreed it would have been difficult to identify the medication if one did not know the difference in size of the vials. The RN agreed there was potential for the wrong medication to be administered without a proper label. The facility policy titled, Medication Labels 04/1/03, indicated each prescription medication label includes resident's name, specific instructions for use including route of administration, .drug product name, .strength of medication, .physician's name, date medication is dispensed, quantity, expiration date, name, address and telephone number of provider pharmacy, prescription number, .storage requirements, and initials of dispensing pharmacy.	2020-09-01
