interview and record review, the facility failed to ensure care and services were provided in accordance with
professional standards of practice for one of three residents (Resident 1) when the facility did not follow the
physician's order for Resident 1. This failure had the potential to result in Resident 1 not receiving needed
care and treatment, as ordered by the physician.

including dementia (a progressive state of decline in mental abilities), type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM-a
disorder characterized by difficulty in blood sugar control and poor wound healing), and essential
hypertension (HTN-high blood pressure).
Review of Resident 1's medical record review indicated KUB (kidney, ureter, and bladder) x-ray (a type of
radiation that creates images of the inside of the body) for abdominal pain was performed on 9/16/24 with
the impression: no bowel obstruction (blockage) or perforation (a hole), increased bowel distention (bloating
and swelling) from prior exam.

abdominal x-ray was performed. There was no result of the repeat abdominal x-ray.
During a telephone interview on 11/21/24 at 12:01 p.m. with physician A, he stated he was informed about
Resident 1's abdominal x-ray result of bowel distention and ordered to repeat an abdominal x-ray to follow
up the prior x-ray finding of bowel distention. The physician verified the repeat abdominal x-ray result was
not reported to him.
During a telephone interview and record review on 11/22/24 at 9:07 a.m. with licensed vocational nurse
