Findings included:
Residents Affected - Few
Resident #76 was admitted to the facility on [DATE] with diagnoses of sepsis, chronic kidney disease,
urinary tract infection, and obstructive and reflux uropathy.
A review of Resident #76's care plan revealed that Resident #76 used a urinary catheter with risk of
infection and/or complications related to obstructive uropathy with an intervention to keep the catheter
tubing free of kinks.
A review of Resident #76's physician's orders revealed an order to observe Resident #76's [indwelling]
catheter each shift. Resident #76's physician's orders also revealed an order to drain Resident #76's
catheter bag every shift and as needed.
An interview was conducted on 02/05/20 at 10:34 a.m. with Resident #76 regarding care at the facility.
Resident #76 stated that he had experienced frequent UTIs associated with his [indwelling] catheter and
that his [indwelling] catheter had not been emptied by certain staff members at the facility as it should be
every shift. An observation of Resident #76's [indwelling] catheter bag at the time of the interview confirmed
a small amount of clear yellow urine in Resident #76's [indwelling] catheter bag. During the observation, a
small bend was observed in Resident #76's [indwelling] catheter tubing at the point that the catheter tubing
attached to the catheter drainage bag. No urine was observed in the [indwelling] catheter tubing at the time
of the observation.
An observation was made on 02/06/20 at 10:27 a.m. of Resident #76's [indwelling] catheter drainage bag
and tubing. Resident #76's catheter tubing was observed to be kinked at the point that the catheter tubing
attached to the catheter drainage bag, causing urine to collect approximately half way up the urinary
catheter tubing (photographic evidence obtained). Resident #76 then pushed his call light and Staff E,
Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA) responded. Staff E observed Resident #76's catheter tubing and noticed
that the tubing was kinked with urine backed up into the tubing. Staff E then repositioned the catheter
tubing and ensured that urine was following into Resident #76's catheter drainage bag. Staff E stated that
she would let the nurse know that the catheter tubing was kinked and not draining urine properly.
A follow up observation was made on 02/06/20 at 6:11 p.m. of Resident #76's catheter tubing and drainage
bag. Resident #76's catheter tubing was observed to be kinked at the point that the catheter tubing
attached to the catheter drainage bag, causing urine to collect approximately half way up the urinary
catheter tubing. A small amount of clear yellow urine was observed in Resident #76's catheter drainage
bag.
An observation was made on 02/07/20 at 7:55 a.m. of Resident #76's catheter tubing and catheter drainage
bag. Resident #76's catheter tubing was observed to be kinked, causing urine to be backed up about one
quarter of the way up the catheter tubing. Resident #76's catheter drainage bag had a small amount of
clear yellow urine inside.
An observation and interview was made on 02/07/20 at 9:58 a.m. with Staff C, CNA and Staff D, Registered
Nurse (RN) of Resident #76's catheter tubing and care. Staff C stated that she emptied Resident #76's

attached to the catheter drainage bag, causing urine to collect approximately one third up the urinary
catheter tubing. Staff D stated that if catheter tubing is kinked and urine flow is obstructed then they would
reposition the tubing to allow urine to flow in the drainage bag or change the catheter tubing and drainage
bag. Staff D also stated that Resident #76's catheter tubing needed to be changed due to the tubing being
kinked. Staff C stated that if they discovered a resident had catheter tubing that was kinked or obstructed,
then she would inform the nurse so it could be assessed.
A follow up interview was conducted on 02/07/20 at 10:22 a.m. with Staff D regarding Resident #76's
catheter tubing. Staff D stated that she changed Resident #76's catheter tubing and drainage bag due to
the kink in the tubing. Staff D stated that Staff E did not inform her on 02/06/20 that Resident #76's catheter
tubing was kinked and also stated that Staff E may have gotten busy and forgot to inform her. Staff D stated
that the CNAs had been emptying Resident #76's catheter drainage bag due to increase fluids and that
build up of urine in the catheter tubing could contribute to UTIs if not corrected timely.
An interview was conducted on 02/07/20 at 4:48 p.m. with the facility's Director of Nursing (DON) regarding
care of urinary catheters and expectations of staff. The DON stated that CNAs are able to empty the
catheter drainage bags as well as provide catheter care and that nurses address concerns such as
blockages, leakage, or occlusions in the resident's catheter tubing. The DON also stated that if a kink in a
resident's catheter tubing is found by a CNA, then it should be reported to the nurse. The DON stated that if
drainage of urine is occluded by blockage or kinked tubing then it can cause risk for infection or discomfort
for the resident. The DON also stated that if catheter tubing is kinked then the nurse would assess or
evaluate the tubing to determine the next step and determine if the catheter tubing and bag need to be
replaced. The DON stated that staff should be observing the resident's catheter tubing and bag whenever
they are in the room performing care.

**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
observations, record review and interviews the facility failed to ensure that medications were delivered as
prescribed for one resident (#120) of eight sampled residents. This resulted in medications being
administered crushed in a manner that was not recommended by the manufacturer for Resident #120.
These 2 errors observed during the medication administration of 25 total medications represented an error
rate of 8.0%.
Residents Affected - Few
Findings included:
Resident #120 was admitted to the facility on [DATE] with diagnoses of cerebral infarction, essential
hypertension, type 2 diabetes mellitus, dementia, hypokalemia, peripheral vascular disease and
hyperlipidemia.

Staff A, LPN proceeded to crush all of the tablets and open the capsule and place the contents into a
medicine cup. Staff A, LPN mixed all of the pill contents with applesauce for administration to Resident
#120. Staff A, LPN entered the resident room with the medication cup and proceeded to administer the
medications to Resident #120 with a spoon. Staff A, LPN returned to the medication cart after
administration of the medications.
An interview with Staff A, LPN was conducted at the medication cart directly after exiting the room. Staff A,
LPN was asked how she is able to identify when medications can be crushed. Staff A, LPN stated she can
identify if medications can be crushed by reviewing the orders in the computer for each resident and by
looking at the medication packaging. Staff A, LPN identified an order for Resident #120 that allows for
medications to be given in any form needed.

Personnel authorized to administer mediations do so only after they have familiarized themselves with the
medication.
Procedures:
Residents Affected - Few
1-Medications are prepared only by licensed nursing, medical, pharmacy or other personnel authorized by
state regulations to prepare medications.
3-Prior to administration, review and confirm medication orders for each individual resident on the
Medication Administration Record (MAR). Compare the medication and dosage schedule on the resident's
MAR with the medication label.
5-If it is safe to do so, medication tablets may be crushed or capsules emptied out when a resident has
difficulty swallowing or is tube-fed, using the following guidelines and with a specific order from prescriber.
a-The need for crushing medications is indicated on the resident's orders and the MAR so that all
personnel administering medications are aware of this need and the consultant pharmacist can advise on
safety and alternatives, if appropriate, during medication regimen reviews.
b-Long-acting, extended release or enteric-coated dosage forms should generally not be crushed; an
alternative should be sought.
f-Crush medications if indicated for this resident only after referring to the Medications Not To Crushed List.
For products that appear on the Medications Not To Be Crushed List, check with pharmacist regarding a
suitable alternative, and request a new prescriber order if appropriate.
A review of the Pharmacy Name Medications Not To Be Crushed document (revised 01/12) provided by the
facility for review indicated Aspirin enteric coated tablets and Potassium Chloride tablets were not to be
crushed for administration.

a week and the physician is in at least once a week.
During an interview on 2/06/20 at 1:26 p.m. with staff member F, LPN, she stated they notify the family for
new orders and put the orders in the computer. When they receive the results they notify the doctor. Staff
member F, LPN stated she notifies the doctor if the resident refuses then will try again the next day. Staff
member F, LPN stated she would look at the lab book or the orders if she was out to see what labs were
ordered and received.
During an interview on 2/06/20 at 1:31 p.m. The DON stated the lab book and tracker are filled out for each
resident with requisition form. The lab tech comes in and the tech should document in the lab book if the lab
was completed or not. The lab tech should discuss with the nurse any issues they encountered. The DON
stated the lab book comes to the morning meeting and they discuss it every day and look to see if the
nurses are completing the book by recording the labs were received and the physician and family notified
and any new orders documented. The DON stated they have had management change and she has told
the nurses to make the lab books their best friends by looking at the book several times and making sure
they have contacted the family and the physician.
The DON was asked where Resident #4's CBC (complete blood count) and BMP (basic metabolic panel)
results were from 12/12/19 and CBC results from 1/20/20 and she stated she was concerned as she could
not find the completed labs except from the ones taken at the hospital. The DON stated that the nurses
would draw labs if the resident had a central line in the facility. The DON confirmed Resident #4 had IV's
that were maintained but was unsure if they were midlines or central lines and stated the lab could not draw
off those only the nurses. The DON could not answer why the resident's vanco orders were followed and
the CBC and BMP were not. The DON stated that she would expect the nurse to followup and reattempt the
lab and confirmed the lab log was not completed for the 1/20/20 labs.

risk manager and Risk Manager (RM). The Risk manager stated she was notified of an investigation for
Resident #4 while he was out to the hospital in January. The RM stated she reviewed the record and did not
look at the resident's labs. She stated she reviewed the record related to wounds and stated if she was
looking for albumin related to healing wounds she would have looked at the labs but did not. The RM stated
she did see a lab that the resident refused but did not further investigate to see if the lab was completed.
During an interview on 2/07/20 at 10:03 a.m. with the ADON, she was asked when the last CBC was
located for Resident #4 and she stated she would look. The last CBC the facility completed for Resident #4
was obtained on 10/9/19.
During an interview on 2/07/20 at 4:30 p.m. with Staff member I, Regional Nurse Consultant (RNC) she
stated the facility is working on notification related to labs and x-rays but did not realize they were not
capturing on the 24 hour reports the missing lab results if the lab was not drawn for a day or two. The RNC
stated if a resident refuses or the lab can't be drawn and a new order is not written, the 24 hour report does
not catch this problem and the labs are missed. The RNC stated the system is broken and the are
continuing to work at capturing the labs. The RNC stated the physician's order should remain open until
completed or canceled by the physician.
