Ensure that nurses and nurse aides have the appropriate competencies to care for every resident in a way
that maximizes each resident's well being.
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
observations, record reviews and interviews, the facility failed to ensure nursing staff competency related to
therapy referrals for one resident (#5) out of ten residents sampled.On 07/14/2025 at 12:30 p.m., Resident
#5 was observed sitting up in his bed with his tray table in front of him. He was observed trying to drink out
of a cup and spilling fluids on his shirt. On 07/16/2025 at 8:41 a.m. Resident #5 was observed sitting up in
his bed sleeping, with his breakfast placed in front of him untouched. The resident did not feed self. Record
review of an admission record dated 07/17/2025 revealed Resident #5 was admitted to the facility originally
on 9/22/2023 and readmitted on [DATE] with diagnoses to include unspecified dementia, moderate, with
psychotic disturbance, need for assistance with personal care, type 2 diabetes mellitus with diabetic
neuropathy, unspecified, and failure to thrive. Review of a Minimum Data Set (MDS) dated [DATE] revealed
Resident #5 had a Brief Interview for Mental Status (BIMS) score of 09, which indicated moderate cognitive
impairment. Review of the Change in Condition (CIC) report dated 06/29/2025 revealed Resident #5's
change was reported due to food and/ or fluid intake, decreased or unable to eat and /or drink adequate
amounts. The CIC revealed nursing observed, evaluated, and completed the referral to therapy form to have
speech evaluate Resident #5. Review of a form Referral to Therapy dated 06/26/2025 revealed Nursing
referred Resident #5 to be evaluated by therapy for eating/swallowing due to holding food or medication.
The referral revealed the nurse observed Resident #5 pocketing medication. Further review revealed
nursing completed section one and two on the referral. On 07/16/2025 at 2:18 PM, an interview was
conducted with the Therapy Director. She stated she did not receive an evaluation for Resident #5 on
6/29/2025. While reviewing the therapy referral the Therapy Director stated, The nurse who initiated the
referral saved and locked the referral so, therapy was not notified through the electronic system. She stated
when a referral is initiated the first section is completed by the person requesting the referral. The second
section on the referral is always completed by therapy with a response. However, the nurse completed both
sections on the referral, so therapy did not receive the notification. She stated the referral process is
whoever requests a therapy referral completes the first section, then the referral would show in the system
that the referral is in progress. Then therapy will receive notification, then therapy will complete section two
on the referral. The Director of Therapy confirmed his department did not receive the referral because the
nurse completed both sections and locked it in the electronic system. On 07/16/2025 at 4:00 p.m. an
interview was conducted with the Director of Nurses (DON). She stated when a nurse enters a referral in
electronic medical record they are supposed to complete the first section and therapy completes the
second section. She stated the nurse completed the referral wrong and that was why the resident was not
seen by therapy for the pocketing and swallowing concerns. She stated the nurse that initiated the referral
in the system is new so she will provide the nurse with more education. She stated nurses are given
education when they are hired on how to use the electronic medical record and how to complete therapy
referrals. The facility did not have a policy for nursing competencies.

Ensure drugs and biologicals used in the facility are labeled in accordance with currently accepted
professional principles; and all drugs and biologicals must be stored in locked compartments, separately
locked, compartments for controlled drugs.
Based on observations, staff interviews, resident interviews, medical record review, and facility policy
review, it was determined that the facility failed to ensure all drugs and biologicals were stored in locked
compartments and kept under proper temperature controls.Findings included: 1. During a tour of the Rapid
Recovery Unit (RRU) medication room on 7/15/25 at 2:30 p.m. an observation of the small, locked
medication refrigerator was made with the Director of Nursing (DON). The top open shelf portion of the
refrigerator was observed to be covered in hard white frost. The white frost was observed to take up most of
the room in the top shelf area.The thermometer inside the refrigerator was observed to read 28 degrees ( )
Fahrenheit (F). The thermometer was shown to the DON and she was asked to confirm the temperature
was reading 28 F. She stated yes. She then stated I guess this refrigerator needs to be defrosted.A review
of the temperature log for this refrigerator revealed temperatures were recorded twice a day which ranged
from 31 F to 38 F from July 1, 2025 thru July 15, 2025. The top of this log had printed information which
stated, refrigerator should be between 32 F and 41 F. Observation of medications stored inside this
refrigerator revealed three Mounjaro 7.5mg/0.5ml (milliliter) pens with a label that stated refrigerate, do not
freeze, and one Orencia Clickject 125mg/ml pen with a label which stated, high alert, refrigerate, do not
freeze.The DON was asked if these medications remained stable having been stored at 28 F. She stated I
will call the pharmacy.In a second interview with the DON on 7/15/25 at 3:00 p.m., she stated I spoke with
one of our pharmacists. He said the Mounjaro must be stored at 36 F to 46 F and is compromised. He told
me to remove it and obtain an order to have it replaced. She was asked about the second medication in the
refrigerator. She stated I will call back to ask about that one. The DON returned and stated the pharmacist
said the Orencia cannot be subjected to freezing and they should discard the dose. The DON said, We will
replace the dose by reordering it.On 7/16/24 at 10:15 a.m. an interview was conducted with Staff
C,Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN)/Unit Manager for RRU. She was asked who checks the temperatures for
the refrigerators in the medication room. She stated the night shift. She was asked who is responsible to
defrost the refrigerators. She stated the night shift. She was asked how often they are defrosted. She stated
it's based on pharmacy recommendations, when they say to do it, monthly. She was asked if there is a log
showing the dates the refrigerator was defrosted. She stated no. She was asked when the refrigerator was
last defrosted. She stated I don't know. A review of the facility policy titled Medication Storage (2017,
revised as necessary) revealed:Purpose: To provide guidelines for proper storage of medications within the
facility.Policy: Medications will be stored in a manner that maintains the integrity of the product ensures the
safety of the residents and is in accordance with Department of health guidelines.Procedure:Medication will
be stored at the appropriate temperature in accordance with the pharmacy and/or manufacturing labeling.
Appropriate temperature will be determined as per the following:Cold place: 36-46 degrees FMedications
requiring refrigeration will be stored in a refrigerator that is maintained between 36 -46 F.Refrigerators used
for medication storage will contain a thermometer to indicate the temperature within.Temperature will be
checked daily to ensure it is within a specified range. If temperature is out of range, the refrigerator
thermostat will be adjusted.Refrigerator should be defrosted regularly, if required (every 3-4 weeks).A
review of the medication Mounjaro, on the manufacturer's website (www.mounjarolilly.com) revealed this is
an injectable medication use to treat type 2 diabetes.Under the instructions for use on the website, it
stated:Storage and handling: Store your pen in the refrigerator between 36 F to 46 F. You may store your
Pen at room temperature up to 86 F

for up to 21 days. Do not freeze your Pen. If the Pen has been frozen, throw the Pen away and use a new
Pen. A review of the medication Orencia, on the manufacturer's website (www.Orencia.com) revealed this is
an injectable medication used to treat rheumatoid arthritis. Under the frequently asked questions on the
website, it stated: How should I store my Orencia prefilled syringe or autoinjector? Store Orencia in the
refrigerator at 36 F to 46 F until you are ready to use it. DO NOT freeze Orencia. 2. On 7/14/25 at 11:45
a.m., during an interview with Resident #3, there was a large box (approximately 3 feet by 2 feet in size)
observed on the floor of his room. The box was against the wall and visible as you walked into the resident's
room. The box flaps were open which exposed the contents on the top as visible. Three medication cards
(the style of medication cards used by the facility) were visible at the top of the top contents. The resident
was asked permission to remove the medication cards from the box, and he agreed. The medication cards
were found to contain: Card 1: Tamsulosin capsules 0.4mg (milligram) (22 tablets); a prescription
medication used to treat benign prostate hyperplasia.Card 2: Finasteride 5mg (25 tablets); a prescription
medication used to treat benign prostate hyperplasia.Card 3: Oxycodone IR (immediate release) 20mg (5
tablets); a prescription medication used to treat moderate to severe pain. This medication is also classified
as a Schedule II controlled substance by the USDEA (United States Drug Enforcement Agency.)The
observation revealed each card had this resident's name on the card from [Name of Pharmacy]. The
resident was asked if he knew why the medications were in his box on the floor. He stated no, I don't know,
they just came with my stuff. He was asked if anyone had gone through the box. He stated no. He was
asked where the box came from, and how long it's been in his room. He stated I don't know, I think it came
with me when I came here. He was asked if he needed staff to assist him to go through the box. He stated
no.On 7/14/25 at 3:30 p.m., The DON was asked to come to Resident #3's room. Resident #3 was
observed in his room. He was asked if the DON could look in the open box on his floor, he stated yes. The
DON was asked why there were medication cards in this box, unattended in the resident's room. She
removed a total of 5 medication cards from the box (3 were visible right on top, 2 were under other items.)
The additional two medication cards were:Card 4: Eliquis 5mg tablets (25 tablets); a prescription medication
used to treat and prevent blood clots.Card 5: a second card of Oxycodone IR 20mg (10 tablets); a
prescription medication used to treat moderate to severe pain. This medication is also classified as a
Schedule II controlled substance by the USDEA. The DON stated the family brought this box in. She stated
this box did not come with Resident #3 when he arrived to the facility on 6/26/25. The resident then stated
he thought the box came with him when he arrived but stated he wasn't sure. He then stated he went
through the box, but he didn't take any of the medications in the box. The DON removed the medication
cards from the resident's room. In a continued interview, the DON stated the family must have brought the
box in over the weekend, because she was in his room on Thursday and she stated she would have noticed
this box on the floor if it were there. She stated she will have a Certified Nurse's Aide (CNA) come in to
inventory the remaining items in the box. She was asked if the cards were from the pharmacy the facility
uses. She stated yes, I think these went home with him when he was discharged from here to an Assisted
Living Facility (ALF) on 6/11/25. She was asked to confirm what the medications were. She stated Eliquis,
Tamsulosin, Finasteride, and two cards of Oxycodone. She was asked what the process is when residents
or family brings items into the facility. She stated staff would add the items to the residents' inventory. She
was asked if the items in this box were added to the resident's inventory. She stated no, I don't think so. On
7/14/25 at 3:50 p.m. an interview with Staff A, LPN/weekend supervisor. She was asked if she saw family
bring in this box over the weekend. She stated I didn't see any visitors for Resident #3 this weekend, but I
