AI-Generated Summary

State inspectors found that Ballard Landmark had an unsafe medication delivery system that resulted in multiple medication errors for a named resident. One error involved giving the resident another resident's medication, and a second error involved administering a sedating medication on top of another sedating medication the resident received in the ER — contributing to heavy sedation that prevented a needed MRI. The resident fell, was hospitalized overnight, and experienced altered mental status. Inspectors did not find violations related to the family notification allegation, as the facility appropriately contacted the family when the resident's condition changed. A citation was written under the medication management regulation (WAC 388-78A-2210).
