This survey cited 2 deficiencies. The full statement and the facility’s plan of correction follow, verbatim from the federal record.

F 0684 Provide appropriate treatment and care according to orders, resident’s preferences and goals. Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Based on interview and record review the facility failed to administered physician ordered medications in accordance with professional standards for 2 of 6 residents, Residents #10 and #18, reviewed for medication administration. Residents Affected - Few Findings include: Review of Resident #10's Medication Administration Record (MAR) for November of 2024, the physician's order read, Insulin Glargine Subcutaneous Solution: 100 UNIT/ML (Insulin Glargine) Inject 12 unit subcutaneously at bedtime for diabetes mellites (DM). Start Date 09/19/2024 9:00 PM (2100). Review of Resident #10's physician orders did not provide parameters to hold the Glargine long-acting insulin. Review of the Resident #10's MAR for November 2024 documented the physician ordered Glargine Insulin was held on 11/15/2024 and 11/17/2024 and documented 4: Vitals outside of parameters for administration. Review of Resident #10's Care Plan documented Focus Area - [Resident #10's name] has a physician's order for insulin or hypoglycemic r/t [related to] DM. Goal - Resident will be free of adverse drug reactions from insulin administration through the next review date. Interventions - administer insulin as ordered. Monitor/document for side effects and effectiveness. Monitor and report blood glucose levels per physician's order. Date Initiated: 09/19/2024. Review of Resident #10's Progress Notes did not provide documentation on 11/15/2024 or 11/17/2024 of the blood sugar values at bedtime, notification to the physician when not administering the physician ordered Glargine long-acting insulin, and the reason for not administering the insulin. During an interview on 11/20/2024 at 2:15 PM, the Director of Nursing (DON) stated, For medications that do not have parameters, such as long-acting insulin, the expectation is that if they hold the medication, they notify the doctor. During an interview on 11/21/2024 at 8:40 AM, Physician A stated, I don't recall getting any calls about [Resident #10's name] or giving any orders to hold the long-acting insulin. Usually, we don't hold the long-acting insulin. It's the short-acting [insulin] that's usually the culprit [for dropping blood sugar levels]. If it was just a couple of days, there wouldn't be any significant harm. During an interview on 11/21/2024 at 8:50 AM, Physician B stated, I haven't gotten any calls about [Resident #10's name] insulin, and I did not give any orders to hold her long-acting insulin.

F 0684 was held a couple of times, it shouldn't have caused any harm. Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Review of Resident #18's Medication Administration Record (MAR) for October 2024 documented a physician order which read, Metoprolol Tartrate Tablet 25 MG [milligrams] - Give 1 tablet by mouth two times a day for HTN [hypertension] HOLD for SBP [systolic blood pressure] <110 [less than] OR HR [heart rate] <60 - Start Date 05/23/2020 1700 [5:00 PM]. Review of the documentation of the administration of the Metoprolol documented the medication was held, with a 4: vitals outside of parameters for administration, on 10/19/2024 at 9:00 AM, 10/23/2024 at 5:00 PM, and 10/26/2024 at 9:00 AM. On 10/26/2024 at 5:00 PM documented was 9. 9: Other/See progress notes. Residents Affected - Few Review of Resident #18 vital signs when the medication was held documented on 10/19/2024 the B/P was 110/54; the HR/pulse was 73, dated 10/23/2024 at 4:10 PM B/P 110/50; HR/pulse 88, dated 10/26/2024 at 7:58 AM B/P 110/54; HR/pulse 73 and on 10/26/2024 at 3:33 PM B/P 119/69; HR 76. During an interview on 11/20/2024 at 1:15 PM, Staff C, RN stated, The aids do vital signs at the beginning of the shift. If the blood pressures are low, like with [Resident #18's name] they will let me know. If the reading is off, I will re-take it myself. The certified nursing assistants will tell me all of the vital signs. If [Resident #18's] blood pressure was 112/54 and her pulse rate was 64, I would hold her Metoprolol. I know her and know that she bottoms out. I would check her vital signs again. If it starts getting to be a routine, like three days in a row, I would go ahead and tell the doctor. During an interview on 11/20/2024 at 2:15 PM, the DON stated, The expectation for medications with parameters for metoprolol for example, that would have an order to hold for a [systolic] blood pressure of less than 110, if the blood pressure was below 110, they would hold the medication. If they are holding the medication [outside of the parameters] they will let the doctor know. During an interview on 11/21/2024 at 8:40 AM, Physician A stated, I don't recall getting any calls about [Resident #18's name]. I think we need to do some education with the nurses about Beta Blockers. For Beta Blockers we go with the heart rate, not the systolic blood pressure. We don't hold for B/P, it is the heart rate. If it was just a couple of days, there wouldn't be any significant harm. Review of the policy and procedure titled Medication Administration, last reviewed on 01/17/2024, read, Policy: Medications are administered by licensed nurses, or other staff who are legally authorized to do so in this state, as ordered by the physician and in accordance with professional standards of practice, in a manner to prevent contamination or infection.
