This survey cited 4 deficiencies. The full statement and the facility’s plan of correction follow, verbatim from the federal record.

F 0605 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Few Prevent the use of unnecessary psychotropic medications or use medications that may restrain a resident's ability to function. Based on interview and record review the facility failed to ensure as needed (PRN) psychotropic medications (a class of psychiatric drugs that helps manage severe mental health symptoms) for two out of three residents (Residents 10 and 30) were limited to 14 days and/or attending physician or prescribing practitioner documentation to support medication order extension.This failure had the potential to result in adverse consequences ranging from functional decline, hospitalization, permanent injury, or death.Findings:During a concurrent interview and record review on 1/08/2025 at 1:45 PM with Pharmacy Manager (Pharm), Resident 30's Hospital Medication Detail (undated) was reviewed. The hospital medication detail indicated, an order for Lorazepam (ATIVAN) tab 2 mg.Frequency: Bedtime PRN for Anxiety, Trouble Sleeping.Start Date/Time:01/02/26.End Date/Time: --. Pharm stated, the order was a low dose psychotropic medication, that was appropriately prescribed as needed (PRN) for anxiety and insomnia (trouble sleeping). When asked if as needed (PRN) medications required a specific duration, Pharm stated, Oh yes. I'm sorry. The system just puts the medication in, but we should be able to manually go in and add a 14-day stop date. I'll look into that. Pharm acknowledged no stop date was noted on Resident 30's current order. Pharm was unable to locate clinical documentation to support use beyond 14-day limit. During a concurrent interview and record review on 1/08/2025 at 2:37 PM with Nurse Manager (NM), Resident 10's Hospital Medication Detail undated was reviewed. The hospital medication detail indicated, an order for Lorazepam (ATIVAN) tab 2 mg.Frequency: Every 5 minutes PRN for Seizures (a sudden burst of electrical activity in the brain), If develops convulsive (irregular movement of a limb or of the body) seizure > 2 minutes, administer 2mg IV Ativan.Start Date/Time:03/07/25.End Date/Time: -- . NM stated, the reviewed medication order was currently active on Resident 10's electronic medical record and indicated for as needed use. When asked if as needed (PRN) medications required a specific duration, NM stated, My understanding is that a 14 day stop date is needed for this anti-anxiety medication, so if I were to see this order then I would call the pharmacy and ask them to add a stop date. NM was unable to locate clinical documentation to support use beyond 14-day limit. During an interview on 1/8/2026 at 2:42 PM with Pharm, Pharm provided confirmation that pharmacy staff has access to manually add stop dates to as needed (PRN) psychotropic medication orders, unless attending physician or prescribing practitioner rationale is documented. Pharm stated, Yes. We will do that moving forward. That will be our fix.During a review of the facility's policy and procedure titled, Procedure- Post Acute Services- Behavior Monitoring and Psychotherapeutic Drug Use, Protocol, last revised on 12/19/2019, indicated, .2. PRN Psychotherapeutic Drug; PRN Psychotherapeutic drugs should be limited to 14 days, unless appropriate documentation is provided in the medical record.

The NM only found stated weights within her records. The NM explained stated weight was what Resident 14 told staff her weight was. The NM confirmed staff did not put Resident 14 on a scale and obtained an actual weight. The NM also searched Resident 14's records for any clinical reasons (pain, refusal, out of the facility etc.) why staff did not obtain an actual weight.

F 0757 Ensure each resident’s drug regimen must be free from unnecessary drugs. Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm **NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on interview and record review, the facility failed to ensure Resident 14 (one out of 12 sample residents) was free from unnecessary medication when Remeron (a medication that treats depression and other conditions by adjusting brain chemistry to improve mood, energy, and feelings of well-being, helping to regulate mood, sleep, and appetite ) was prescribed with no identified target behaviors and no diagnosis related to depression (a serious mood disorder causing persistent sadness, loss of interest, and impacting daily life, affecting how you feel, think, and handle activities like sleeping, eating, or working). This failure may result in the use of Remeron as an unnecessary medication.Findings: Review of Resident 14's record titled Manage Orders, dated 12/21/2025, indicated Resident 14 was prescribed 15 mg (milligram) of Remeron at bedtime. Review of Resident 14's record titled Minimum Data Set (MDS), dated [DATE], indicated she was admitted to the Skilled Nursing Facility (SNF) on 12/19/2025 and had multiple diagnoses. None of the diagnoses was depression or related to depression.

The RNL stated she will also search for documented evidence of an actual depression diagnosis and how staff were monitoring target symptoms related to depression. RNL stated these depression target symptoms may manifest as: self-isolation, insomnia, loss of interest, tearful, etc. and she will search the records for these symptoms. After searching Resident 14's records, RNL was unable to find documentation for the items discussed. During a concurrent interview and record review on 1/8/2026 at 2:37 PM, the Pharmacy Manager (Pharm), the Pharm stated an anti-depression should not be prescribed without an active diagnosis of depression or other forms of depression.

The Pharm stated if indication for use was not documented, there would be a discussion with the care team (including a physician). The Pharm stated there are off label use for Remeron such as for anxiety and insomnia. The Pharm was asked to search Resident 14's records for any clinical rationale and/or diagnosis for Resident 14's use of Remeron. The Pharm was unable to find a diagnosis for use of Remeron for Resident 14 (after admission to the SNF). The Pharm did find a check box indicating Remeron was discussed with the care team. The Pharm explained they may have to re-examine their drug prescribing system as the current system did not prevent Remeron from being prescribed without documented diagnoses and/or clinical rationales. Review of the facility's policy titled Post Acute Services Behavior Monitoring and Psychotherapeutic Drug Use, Protocol, revised on 12/19/2019, indicated .To outline the management and documentation requirements for patients with behavioral symptoms .diagnosis with a description of symptoms.discussion of the differential psychiatric and medical diagnosis. description of the justification of the choice of a particular treatment .
