ON or about May 22, 2024, AV was given half of his/her regular pain medication dose, but it was caught by an audit, and AV was given the second (2nd) half of his/her regular pain medication dose. Alleged Perpetrator 2 (AP2) dispensed AV’s pain medication of May 21st and 22nd, 2024, and he/she completed the medication tech training on May 15, 2024. As a result of the medication errors, AV suffered pain and states he/she suffered cramps, felt shaky, nauseous and swats.

The facility failed to assure AV received a safe medication administration system, which is a violation of Oregon Administrative Rules.
