Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm **NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on observation, interview, and record review, the facility failed to ensure the correct dosage of insulin (medication that lowers the level of glucose [sugar] in the blood) was in the prefilled pen injector per physician's sliding scale order for Resident 291. This failure had the potential to result in hypoglycemia (medical condition where blood sugar level is too low) and death for Resident 291.

During a review of Resident 291's Face Sheet (demographics), the Face Sheet indicated Resident 291 was admitted on [DATE] with diagnoses including diabetes mellitus type 2 (disease that causes high blood sugars). During a concurrent observation and interview on 1/15/25 at 4:15 p.m. with Registered Nurse (RN) 3 in Resident 291 ' s room, RN 3 checked Resident 291's blood sugar with a glucometer (handheld device that measures the amount of sugar in the bloodstream) and stated the result was 205 milligram/deciliter (mg/dL, unit of measurement). RN 3 went to the medication cart and documented 305 mg/dL into Resident 291's Medication Administration Record (MAR) for the blood sugar result. RN 3 stated the sliding scale for blood sugar result of 305, was to administer 8 units of insulin (medication that manages blood sugar levels). RN 3 turned the dial to 8 units of insulin and confirmed the prefilled pen injector was turned to 8 units. RN 3 stated, Yes, I'm ready to give, and began to walk towards Resident 291. RN 3 was then stopped and was asked to show the history on the glucometer results. RN 3 recalled the history on the glucometer and stated the value was 205! Oh, my god! That would have been so bad. RN 3 reviewed Resident 291's MAR and confirmed the correct dose of insulin should have been 4 units.

Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Based on interview and record review, the facility's Quality Assurance Performance Improvement (QAPI, data-driven approach to improving quality in healthcare facilities) committee failed to maintain documentation and demonstrate evidence that the QAPI program was sustained during transitions in leadership when there were no follow-ups for medication administration audits (observations to help identify potential and actual medication errors at different stages) conducted by Pharmacy (Cross-reference F658,
F726, F759, F760). Residents Affected - Many These findings resulted in a medication error rate of 24%, including one considered significant, and had the potential to result in severe adverse effects for all residents. The facility census was 94. Findings: During a review of the facility's QAPI Minutes (a written record of a QAPI meeting that documents topics discussed, decisions made, and actions taken), dated January to December 2024, the minutes indicated that for January and February of 2024, Medication Administration Audits by the Pharmacist (PHARM) were planned to be completed monthly and reported to QAPI.

F 0867 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Many Set up an ongoing quality assessment and assurance group to review quality deficiencies and develop corrective plans of action. Based on interview and record review, the facility's Quality Assurance and Performance Improvement (QAPI, data-driven approach to improving quality in healthcare facilities) program failed to identify, address, and evaluate the following systemic quality deficiencies (issues that fall below the standards of quality for a facility's care, which QAPI programs were designed to identify and fix): 1. Nursing Medication Administration Competency (Cross-reference F658, F726, F759, F760) 2. Infection Control (Cross-reference F880, F881) 3. Abuse Program (Cross-reference F606, F607, F943) 4.
