Inspection Findings:
Recommendations
It is recommended that procedures for testing, transfers, operation, record
keeping, and labeling be made more robust, thorough, and organized.
Scanned copies of documents were accessible through the computer hard
drive; however, were not accessible through the POS system even though
they had been uploaded. It is recommended that the facility work with the
POS company to resolve this technical deficiency.
Transfer documentation was somewhat disorganized and, although all of the
required information was recorded, the documents had to be reviewed as a
whole because the information was spread throughout many forms and
records. It is recommended that the facility ensure that each record contains
all of the required information.
It is recommended that the facility move the signage to directly on the door to
the dispensing room (currently posted above the door) so that its more
conspicuous.
