F 0773 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm 06/24/2023 for urinalysis and BMP. She again was unable to find the results in the physician's notebook nor in the hard chart. She printed them from the lab's computer site. She verified there was no documentation the physician or family was called with the results. Then Staff A reviewed Resident #3's labs and progress notes and verified the labs were performed on 06/12/2023 but the antibiotic was not ordered until 06/20/2023. She stated that she did not know why there was such a delay in reporting to the physician. Residents Affected - Some During an interview on 06/26/2023 at 3:59 p.m. the Director of Nursing (DON) stated they were to get an order and follow that order. They insert the order into the e-chart. Once the labs have been drawn or picked up, they would advise the physician of the pick-up time and date, if it was going to be delayed. The nurse was then to look for the results on the lab's website. They were to use the nurse-to-nurse report to let the next nurse know of the labs. Each nurse was to follow-up during their shift until the lab results were obtained. She stated a C & S result could take up to three or four days. They were to check on the lab's website in the computer. They were to print the results. She stated sometimes the lab will fax over the results. The nurse should then notify the physician and obtain orders as needed. If the resident was their own person, the nurse can notify the resident of the results. If they aren't then the families are to be notified of the lab results and any changes in orders. Some of the families want to know everything and if the resident was okay with that, then they are told. They follow the wishes of the resident. The nurse should document in the chart they notified the physician and resident and/or family of the results. The lack of following up on the lab results and informing the physician could result in a negative outcome they could miss something; they could miss a critical lab result.
