(a) Drugs listed in Schedules II, III and IV
of the Federal Comprehensive Drug Abuse Prevention and Control Act of 1970
shall not be accessible to other than licensed nursing, pharmacy and medical
personnel designated in writing by the facility. The registered nurse in charge
of nursing services shall be designated by the licensee to be responsible for
the control of such drugs. Drugs listed in Schedule II of the above Act shall
be stored in a locked cabinet or a locked drawer separate from noncontrolled
drugs unless they are supplied on a scheduled basis as part of a unit dose
medication system.
(b) Separate
records of use shall be maintained on all Schedule II drugs. Such records shall
be maintained accurately and shall include the name of the client, the
prescription number, the drug name, strength and dose administered, the date
and time of administration and the signature of the person administering the
drug. Such records shall be reconciled at least daily and shall be retained at
least one year. If such drugs are supplied on a scheduled basis as part of a
unit dose medication system, such records need not be maintained
separately.
(c) Drug records shall
be maintained for drugs listed in Schedules III and IV of the above Act in such
a way that the receipt and disposition of each dose of any such drug may be
readily traced. Such records need not be separate from other medication
records.
