Interview on 10/05/23 at 12:16pm with LVN E revealed that Resident #1's psychotropic medications are evaluated by the psych doctor, but she was unsure if the Resident was seen in the facility or outpatient. She stated if he went outpatient then the after-visit notes should be uploaded to the EMR under the miscellaneous section and there should be a progress note from the date the resident left and returned to the facility.
