Visit Reason
The inspection was conducted as a Recertification Survey combined with a complaint investigation regarding medication errors at the facility.

Complaint Details
The complaint investigation (#NY00327781) substantiated that Resident #271 received an incorrect medication dose due to a transcription error of a telephone order. The error was identified during preparation for a regulatory visit and was reported to the New York State Department of Health.
