**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
interview and record review, the facility failed to properly reconcile medications and wound care treatment
orders upon admission from the hospital for one of three sampled residents (Resident 1). when:1.The
wound care treatment order was not transcribed from the hospital discharge instructions from 9/5/2025 to
9/11/2025, which resulted in two missed wound care treatments.2. There was no documented evidence that
wound care treatment was provided on 9/15/2025.3. Two insulin aspart orders were not transcribed from
the hospital discharge instructions onto the facility's medication list from 9/5/2025 to 9/16/2025. As a result,
blood sugar levels were not checked, and insulin was not administered per sliding scale orders during this
period.These failures resulted in missed wound care treatments and unmonitored blood sugar levels, which
had the potential to compromise Resident 1's health and well-being. 1. A review of Resident 1's clinical
record indicated Resident 1 was admitted to the facility on [DATE] with diagnoses that included type 2
diabetes mellitus (a chronic condition characterized by hyperglycemia due to the body's inability to use
insulin effectively or produce enough insulin), skin ulcers, and a non-pressure chronic ulcer of the right
ankle. A review of the hospital discharge instructions dated 9/5/2025 indicated wound care orders for the
right lower extremity, with dressings to be changed on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday using the following
materials:1) Prisma activated by saline2) Gauze3) Two ABD pads4) Kerlix5) ACE bandageA review of the
facility's Treatment Administration Record (TAR) for September 2025 indicated a wound care treatment
order for the right lower extremity that included Prisma (activated with saline), gauze, ABD pads, kerlix, and
ACE wrap from below the knee. The order, scheduled for every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday on the day
shift, was not entered until 9/12/2025.2. A review of the TAR of September 2025 and nursing progress
notes from 9/5 to 9/17/2025 indicated no evidence that wound care treatments were provided on 9/8
(Monday), 9/10 (Wednesday), and 9/15 (Monday). During an interview and concurrent record review on
9/23/2025 at 2:20 p.m., Licensed Vocational Nurse (LVN) A reviewed the September 2025 TAR and nursing
progress notes from 9/5 to 9/16. LVN A confirmed that the wound care order was not transcribed on
admission [DATE]). The order was instead entered on 9/12/2025. LVN A acknowledged there was no
documented evidence of wound care treatments on 9/8, 9/10, and 9/15. LVN A stated the wound care nurse
should have transcribed the wound care treatment order on 9/5/2025 per the hospital discharge instructions
and that the treatments should have been provided as ordered.3. A review of the hospital discharge
instructions dated 9/5/2025 also indicated updated medication orders to carry over to the skilled nursing
facility (SNF), including:1)Insulin aspart correctional scale, subcutaneously before meals (three times
daily)2)Insulin aspart correctional scale, subcutaneously at bedtimeA review of the facility's medication list
indicated insulin aspart (Novolog 100 units/mL) was not started until 9/17/2025. The order included a sliding
scale:150-189 = 1 unit190-249 = 2 units250-309 = 3 units310-369 = 4 units370-429 = 5 units430-479 = 6
units480-500 = 7 unitsAbove 500 = call MDThe order also required blood sugar checks and

insulin administration before meals and at bedtime.A review of Resident 1's blood sugar results on
9/17/2025 showed elevated values, including:12:52 p.m. - 174 mg/dL5:37 p.m. - 214 mg/dL9:40 p.m. - 228
mg/dL10:10 p.m. - 282 mg/dLDuring an interview on 9/23/2025 at 2:29 p.m., LVN A reviewed the above
documents and confirmed that the insulin aspart orders should have been initiated on 9/5/2025. LVN A
acknowledged that he reconciled medications using the hospital inpatient medication list instead of the
discharge to SNF medication list, which resulted in a delay in entering the orders. He further confirmed that
blood sugar checks and insulin administration were not completed from 9/5 to 9/16/2025. LVN A stated that
if the orders had been entered on 9/5/2025, Resident 1's blood sugar levels could have been maintained
within the normal range.A review of the facility's policy titled Reconciliation of Medication on admission
(Revised July 2017) indicated:.use an approved medication reconciliation form or other record; list all
medications from the medication history, the discharge summary, the previous MAR (if applicable), and the
admitting orders ('sources'). List the dose, route, and frequency for all medications.
