Residents Affected - Few
Protect each resident from all types of abuse such as physical, mental, sexual abuse, physical punishment,
and neglect by anybody.
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
observation, interview, and record review the facility failed to ensure all residents were free from medical
neglect. The facility failed to ensure licensed practical nurses had the appropriate skills and competency to
administer intravenous (IV) medication via central line access devices for 1 of 1 residents, Resident #197.
The lack of IV certification and validation of competency for IV medication administration can result in an
increased risk of infection, damage to veins and the injection sites, an air embolism (a blood vessel
blockage cause by one or more bubbles of air or other gas in the circulatory system), phlebitis
(inflammation of a vein), and blood clots. The lack of training and verification to assess IV patency (the line
is open and not blocked allowing the treatment to flow directly into patients' vein) can increase the spread
of infection and can result in the likelihood of increased harm and/or death.
Findings include:
During an observation on [DATE] at 9:03 AM Resident #197 was in his room lying in bed. There is a double
lumen peripherally inserted central catheter (PICC) covered with a transparent dressing observed to the
resident's upper right arm. The transparent dressing was dated [DATE] written with a black marker.
During an interview on [DATE] at 9:04 AM Resident #197 stated, I have this IV [intravenous catheter] for
antibiotics to treat the infection I have in my big toe.
Review of Resident #197's admission record documented the resident was admitted to the facility on
[DATE] with a diagnosis including paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (irregular heart rhythm, osteomyelitis of ankle
and foot (infection of the bone), cerebral aneurysm (a weak or think spot on an artery in the brain),
depression, heart failure unspecified, and type 2 diabetes mellitus.
Review of the physician order report for [DATE] through [DATE] documented an order dated [DATE] for
Resident #197 that read, Normal Saline Flush [sodium chloride 0.9% flush] syringe; amt [amount to
administer]: 10 ml [milliliters]; injection. Special Instructions: Flush before and after each IV medication
administration. Every shift. [Dated] [DATE] Meropenem recon soln [reconstituted solution]; 1 gram; amt]: 1
gram; intravenous. Dx [diagnosis]: Other [osteomyelitis, ankle and foot]. Every 8 hours. [Dated] [DATE]
Vancomycin recon soln; 1.25 gram; amt: 1.25 gram; intravenous. Dx Other [osteomyelitis, ankle and foot].
Once a day.
Review of the Medication Administration History for Resident #197 documented Staff A, License Practical
Nurse (LPN), administered 10 ml of sodium chloride 0.9% before and the administration of Meropenem 1
gram on [DATE] at 3:32 PM and on [DATE] at 2:00 PM.
Review of the Medication Administration History for Resident #197 documented Staff G, LPN, administered
10 ml of sodium chloride 0.9% before and after the administration of the IV medication Meropenem 1 gram
reconstituted solution on [DATE] at 11:56 PM, [DATE] at 10:00 PM, [DATE] at 6:00 AM, [DATE] at 10:00 PM
and [DATE] at 6:00 AM. Dated [DATE] Staff G, LPN administered 1.25 grams of Vancomycin reconstituted
solution IV on [DATE] at 5:31 AM.
During an interview on [DATE] at 10:09 AM the Director of Nursing (DON) stated, We have no IV

certification records for Staff A, LPN. He was contacted and cannot produce a certification. If the MAR
[Medication Administration Record/Medication Administration History] is initialed by a nurse, it means the
medication was given by that nurse unless if there is parenthesis which means they made a note. The Staff
Developer and Human Resources are responsible for verification of staff certification. During the interview a
request was made for the IV Certification for Staff G.
During an interview on [DATE] at 10:30 AM Staff C, Unit Manager LPN, stated, LPNs need to have IV
certification. The Human Resource staff and Staff Development is responsible for making sure staff have all
certifications upon hire.
During an interview on [DATE] at 10:41 AM Staff A, LPN, stated, Yesterday I helped administer medication.
The Assistant Director of Nursing was in the room with me. I hung medication, flushed, and cleaned the
port. I was supervised. I am always supervised by an RN [Registered Nurse]. The facility did not request IV
certification from me upon hire. I did not know I needed IV certification. I have done IV medication
administration before. I do not know how to place an IV in an arm [to insert an IV] but I know how to hang
medication. When I was hired, I was trained and shown how to administer medication via IV. The first time
the nurse showed me [how to administer IV medications]. After that, she has always supervised me doing
the administration and flushes. The RN is always with me at all times. Normally I will do it and chart under
my name since he is my resident.
During an interview on [DATE] at 12:55 PM the Human Resource/ABOM (Assistant Business Office
Manager) stated, The IV certification would be kept in the employee file only if provided, it is not requested.
During an interview on [DATE] at 12:55 PM the Staffing Coordinator stated, Staff is assigned to halls. I
leave it up to the nursing staff to tell me if they are capable or not of treating the resident. I hold a CNA
[Certified Nursing Assistant] license. I am aware that the RN is the only one who is able to do PICC lines. I
do not have copies of all the nurses' certifications. I am the only one who schedules. The head nursing
department is responsible to verify certifications. I assume that all the credentials have been verified by the
head of nursing. We do not have a 24-hour RN on the schedule. From 7 PM to 7 AM we do not have an RN.
During an interview on [DATE] at 1:21 PM the Staff Developer stated, Upon hire, I will request the license,
CPR [cardiopulmonary resuscitation], and any certifications. Prior to me, it was [name of the previous
owner company] who was in charge of all the onboarding. Upon hire, I request the IV certification and give
them up to 30 days. If the staff does not provide the certification, I have to readdress. During orientation, I
asked [Staff A's name] for his certification. [Staff A's name] stated he had it. When [Staff A's name] did not
provide it in the 30-day time frame, I readdressed, and we were in the process of a teachable moment.
Review of the personnel record for Staff A, LPN documented the LPN's hire date as [DATE].
During an interview on [DATE] at 1:21 PM the DON stated, Newly hired staff are told upon hire if there is
something that they are not able to do or do not feel comfortable there is a 24-hour RN that is on call that is
able to assist. We stress constantly that if a task is not in their scope of practice or they are unable to
complete ask for assistance. Upon hire, the Staff Development will do the competency and skills fair. My
expectation for [Staff A's name] would be to get an RN that was on duty and assist and perform the task for
him. It is not the practice of the facility to allow a non-IV Certified LPN to administer IV medications
supervised. That was not the case there was no RN in

the building that approved of [Staff A's name] to administer IV medications. It would be falsification of
documentation to only initial; an LPN will not be allowed to initial the task if they had not performed the task
themselves.
During an interview on [DATE] at 1:40 PM the ADON stated, I have not been in the room with an LPN to
supervise or walk through IV medication administration for [Resident #197's name]. Onboarding is done by
Staff Development and Human Resources goes behind with a checklist. I don't get an official notification of
who is certified. I understand that someone will learn in school what their scope is that would be my
expectation. The Staff Developer is the one who should be checking the paperwork and verifying that all
LPNs have all certifications. I don't know if the Staff Developer reports to the DON since everything in the
building falls under her. I will find out who is responsible for verifying agency [LPNs]. I have provided
emergency cover for 7 PM-7 AM.
During an interview on [DATE] at 2:05 PM the Medical Director stated, If nursing staff is non-IV certified,
they should not be doing medication administration via IV. I was not aware that LPNs were administering
medications via IV and were not certified. If the staff is not certified they might not know what they are doing
and there is a risk for infection, mishandling of the IV port, bleeding, pain, the list can go on, but it is only a
potential.
During an interview on [DATE] at 10:35 AM, the DON stated, The facility does not have IV Certification for
[Staff A's name] and [Staff G's name].
During an interview on [DATE] at 2:56 PM, Staff G stated, I became a nurse in the 1990s and while working
at [Name of facility], I took a [Name of pharmacy] IV certification course in [Name of City], but I have not
been able to locate the paperwork.
During an interview on [DATE] at 2:58 PM, the DON, stated, There was an IV certified LPN, but I don't know
why [Staff G's name] didn't ask for assistance. Ultimately, as far as the nursing department, I oversee
nursing staff qualifications and the Staff Developer. [Staff G's name] verbally told us that she is IV certified.
IV certification was requested. No documentation was provided of IV certifications for Staff A or Staff G.
During an interview on [DATE] at 7:20 AM the Administrator stated, I understand there is a certification
LPNs need to obtain that certifies them for IVs. The hiring process is new with all the corporate buy outs.
Now we have a Human Resource Manager. Upon hire employees are ask for any and all certificates they
have; if they do not produce the certifications, we assume they do not have them.
During an interview on [DATE] at 9:30 AM the DON stated, It is not up to me to determine what neglect is. I
would have to refer to my neglect policy.
During an interview on [DATE] at 9:30 AM with Administrator stated, It would be neglect if we were aware
and condoned it. Our policy does not condone. This was a [NAME] employee. We expect the staff to work
within their scope of practice.
During an interview on [DATE] at 9:34 AM the Director of Clinical Services, stated, I would consider it
neglect if the staff worked outside their scope. We did not have a system in place to check for qualifications.
We expect staff to work within their scope of practice, we trusted them.

Review of the facility policy and procedure titled, Administrative Policies for Infusion Therapy Facility
Policies and Procedures with a last review date of [DATE], read, The policies and procedures of a facility
may be more stringent, and duties may be more restrictive than what is permitted by state regulations but
may never be more lenient. For example: The State Board of Nursing may indicate that it is within the scope
of practice for LPNs to flush Central Venous Catheters in long term care facilities, but it is the individual
facility's decision to allow or not allow LPNs to perform the procedure. On the other hand, if the State Board
of Nursing prohibits LPNs from flushing Central Venous Catheter in long term care facilities, then a facility
may NEVER allow an LPN to perform that procedure.

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
observation, interview and record review the facility failed to ensure licensed practical nurses (LPNs) had
the appropriate skills and competencies to administer intravenous (IV) medication via central line access
devices for 1 of 1 residents, Resident #197. The lack of IV certification and validation of competency for IV
medication administration can result in an increased risk of infection, damage to veins and injection sites,
an air embolism, phlebitis, and blood clots, causing tissue damage or even be life threatening. The lack of
training and verification to assess IV patency (the line is open and not blocked allowing the treatment to
flow directly into patients' veins) can increase the spread of infection and can result in the likelihood of
increase harm and/or death.
Findings include:
During an observation on [DATE] at 9:03 AM Resident #197 was in his room lying in bed. There is a double
lumen peripherally inserted central catheter (PICC) covered with a transparent observed to the resident's
upper right arm. The transparent dressing was dated [DATE] written with a black marker.
During an interview on [DATE] at 9:04 AM Resident #197 stated, I have this IV [intravenous catheter] for
antibiotics to treat the infection I have in my big toe.
Review of the physician order report for [DATE] through [DATE] documented an order dated [DATE] for
Resident #197 that read, Normal Saline Flush [sodium chloride 0.9% flush] syringe; amt [amount to
administer]: 10 ml [milliliters]; injection. Special Instructions: Flush before and after each IV medication
administration. Every shift. [Dated] [DATE] Meropenem recon soln [reconstituted solution]; 1 gram; amt]: 1
gram; intravenous. Dx [diagnosis]: Other [osteomyelitis, ankle and foot]. Every 8 hours. [Dated] [DATE]
Vancomycin recon soln; 1.25 gram; amt: 1.25 gram; intravenous. Dx Other [osteomyelitis, ankle and foot].
Once a day.
Review of the Medication Administration History for Resident #197 documented Staff A, License Practical
Nurse (LPN), administered 10 ml of sodium chloride 0.9% before and the administration of Meropenem 1
gram on [DATE] at 3:32 PM and on [DATE] at 2:00 PM.
Review of the Medication Administration History for Resident #197 documented Staff G, LPN, administered
10 ml of sodium chloride 0.9% before and after the administration of the IV medication Meropenem 1 gram
reconstituted solution on [DATE] at 11:56 PM, [DATE] at 10:00 PM, [DATE] at 6:00 AM, [DATE] at 10:00 PM
and [DATE] at 6:00 AM. Dated [DATE] Staff G, LPN administered 1.25 grams of Vancomycin reconstituted
solution IV on [DATE] at 5:31 AM.
During an interview on [DATE] at 10:09 AM the Director of Nursing (DON) stated, We have no IV
certification records for Staff A, LPN. He was contacted and cannot produce a certification. If the MAR
[Medication Administration Record/Medication Administration History] is initialed by a nurse, it means the
medication was given by that nurse unless if there is parenthesis which means they made a note. The Staff
Developer and Human Resources are responsible for verification of staff certification. During the interview a
request was made for the IV Certification for Staff G.
During an interview on [DATE] at 10:30 AM Staff C, Unit Manager LPN, stated, LPNs need to have IV
certification. The Human Resource staff and Staff Development is responsible for making sure staff

have all certifications upon hire.
Level of Harm - Immediate
jeopardy to resident health or
safety
During an interview on [DATE] at 10:41 AM Staff A, LPN, stated, Yesterday I helped administer medication.
The Assistant Director of Nursing was in the room with me. I hung medication, flushed, and cleaned the
port. I was supervised. I am always supervised by an RN [Registered Nurse]. The facility did not request IV
certification from me upon hire. I did not know I needed IV certification. I have done IV medication
administration before. I do not know how to place an IV in an arm [to insert an IV] but I know how to hang
medication. When I was hired, I was trained and shown how to administer medication via IV. The first time
the nurse showed me [how to administer IV medications]. After that, she has always supervised me doing
the administration and flushes. The RN is always with me at all times. Normally I will do it and chart under
my name since he is my resident.
Residents Affected - Few
During an interview on [DATE] at 12:55 PM the Human Resource/ABOM (Assistant Business Office
Manager) stated, The IV certification would be kept in the employee file only if provided, it is not requested.
During an interview on [DATE] at 12:55 PM the Staffing Coordinator stated, Staff is assigned to halls. I
leave it up to the nursing staff to tell me if they are capable or not of treating the resident. I hold a CNA
[Certified Nursing Assistant] license. I am aware that the RN is the only one who is able to do PICC lines. I
do not have copies of all the nurses' certifications. I am the only one who schedules. The head nursing
department is responsible to verify certifications. I assume that all the credentials have been verified by the
head of nursing. We do not have a 24-hour RN on the schedule. From 7 PM to 7 AM we do not have an RN.
During an interview on [DATE] at 1:21 PM the Staff Developer stated, Upon hire, I will request the license,
CPR [cardiopulmonary resuscitation], and any certifications. Prior to me, it was [name of the previous
owner company] who was in charge of all the onboarding. Upon hire, I request the IV certification and give
them up to 30 days. If the staff does not provide the certification, I have to readdress. During orientation, I
asked [Staff A's name] for his certification. [Staff A's name] stated he had it. When [Staff A's name] did not
provide it in the 30-day time frame, I readdressed, and we were in the process of a teachable moment.
Review of the personnel record for Staff A, LPN documented the LPN's hire date as [DATE].
During an interview on [DATE] at 1:21 PM the DON stated, Newly hired staff are told upon hire if there is
something that they are not able to do or do not feel comfortable there is a 24-hour RN that is on call that is
able to assist. We stress constantly that if a task is not in their scope of practice or they are unable to
complete ask for assistance. Upon hire, the Staff Development will do the competency and skills fair. My
expectation for [Staff A's name] would be to get an RN that was on duty and assist and perform the task for
him. It is not the practice of the facility to allow a non-IV Certified LPN to administer IV medications
supervised. That was not the case there was no RN in the building that approved of [Staff A's name] to
administer IV medications. It would be falsification of documentation to only initial; an LPN will not be
allowed to initial the task if they had not performed the task themselves.
During an interview on [DATE] at 1:40 PM the ADON stated, I have not been in the room with an LPN to
supervise or walk through IV medication administration for [Resident #197's name]. Onboarding is done by
Staff Development and Human Resources goes behind with a checklist. I don't get an official notification of
who is certified. I understand that someone will learn in school what their scope is

that would be my expectation. The Staff Developer is the one who should be checking the paperwork and
verifying that all LPNs have all certifications. I don't know if the Staff Developer reports to the DON since
everything in the building falls under her. I will find out who is responsible for verifying agency [LPNs]. I have
provided emergency cover for 7 PM-7 AM.
During an interview on [DATE] at 2:05 PM the Medical Director stated, If nursing staff is non-IV certified,
they should not be doing medication administration via IV. I was not aware that LPNs were administering
medications via IV and were not certified. If the staff is not certified they might not know what they are doing
and there is a risk for infection, mishandling of the IV port, bleeding, pain, the list can go on, but it is only a
potential.
During an interview on [DATE] at 10:35 AM, the DON stated, The facility does not have IV Certification for
[Staff A's name] and [Staff G's name].
During an interview on [DATE] at 2:56 PM, Staff G stated, I became a nurse in the 1990s and while working
at [Name of facility], I took a [Name of pharmacy] IV certification course in [Name of City], but I have not
been able to locate the paperwork.
During an interview on [DATE] at 2:58 PM, the DON, stated, There was an IV certified LPN, but I don't know
why [Staff G's name] didn't ask for assistance. Ultimately, as far as the nursing department, I oversee
nursing staff qualifications and the Staff Developer. [Staff G's name] verbally told us that she is IV certified.
IV certification was requested. No documentation was provided of IV certifications for Staff A or Staff G.
During an interview on [DATE] at 7:20 AM the Administrator stated, I understand there is a certification
LPNs need to obtain that certifies them for IVs. The hiring process is new with all the corporate buy outs.
Now we have a Human Resource Manager. Upon hire employees are ask for any and all certificates they
have; if they do not produce the certifications, we assume they do not have them.
During an interview on [DATE] at 9:34 AM the Director of Clinical Services stated, We did not have a
system in place to check for qualifications. We expect staff to work within their scope of practice, we trusted
them.
During an interview on [DATE] at 12:57 PM with the Administrator stated, We didn't have a process in place
for verification of staff qualifications. The previous company took care of the onboarding and now the new
company has HR [Human Resource] in house. We have weekly meetings and daily staff meetings.
During an interview on [DATE] at 12:57 PM the Staffing Coordinator stated, I depend on higher nursing staff
for qualifications. I am responsible for the hours per resident care and PBJ [Payroll Based Journal, a system
for facilities to submit staffing information]. I rely on the head of nursing to verify staff certifications and
qualifications. I was trained on hours per resident care and PBJ.

of a facility may be more stringent, and duties may be more restrictive than what is permitted by state
regulations but may never be more lenient. For example: The State Board of Nursing may indicate that it is
within the scope of practice for LPNs to flush Central Venous Catheters in long term care facilities, but it is
the individual facility's decision to allow or not allow LPNs to perform the procedure. On the other hand, if

facilities, then a facility may NEVER allow an LPN to perform that procedure.

Procure food from sources approved or considered satisfactory and store, prepare, distribute and serve
food in accordance with professional standards.
Based on observations, interviews, and record review, the facility failed to ensure food is stored, covered,
labeled, and discarded in the kitchen and failed to maintain sanitary standards for equipment used to
prepare, cook, and serve the residents. (Photographic evidence obtained).
Findings include:
A walk-through tour of the kitchen was conducted on 02/27/23 at 09:10 AM with the Certified Dietary
Manager (CDM). The walk-in cooler had a large container labeled Chili and labeled with a prepared date of
02/19/23 and a use by date of 02/22/23. A sheet pan was located on the bottom shelf of the walk in cooler
and the sheet pan was observed to have a bag of thawed raw chicken and a roll of raw ground beef with no
separation of the two items to prevent cross contamination. An observation was made of two quart
containers of raw liquid eggs stored directly over an opened box of raw bacon. An observation was made in
the walk-in freezer of ice buildup and open boxes exposing food. There was an observation in the dry
storage area of three dented cans stored on the ready to use shelving and not in the designated dented
can area. There was an observation of four storage bins with black garbage bags being used as liners to
hold the bulk foods. There was a soiled, wet cloth resting on the stainless table next to the food tray line.
An interview was conducted with the CDM on 2/27/23 at 9:30 AM. The CDM confirmed the walk-in cooler
had a large container labeled Chili and showing a prepared date of 02/19/23 and with a use by date of
02/22/23. The CDM stated the chili should have been discarded after 2/22/23. The CDM confirmed the
sheet pan containing the large bag of thawed raw chicken and a five pound roll of raw ground beef did not
have a separation of the two items to prevent cross contamination. The CDM confirmed the raw ground
beef and raw chicken should not be stored together on the same pan. The CDM confirmed there were
two-quart containers of raw liquid eggs stored directly over an opened box of raw bacon and that eggs
should be stored below other raw foods to prevent cross-contamination. The CDM verified in the walk-in
freezer there is an ice buildup and open boxes exposing food with the potential for freezer burn and
compromising the integrity of the food stored for preparation of menu items. The CDM confirmed in the dry
storage area, the three dented cans stored on the ready to use shelf and not in the designated dented can
area. The CDM confirmed four storage bins had black garbage bags being used as liners to hold the bulk
foods and garbage bags were not a food grade container for bulk products. The CDM confirmed that all
wiping cloths should be kept in a sanitizer bucket when not in use.
A review of the policy and procedure titled, Food Storage: Cold Foods last reviewed on 02/16/23 read,
Procedures: 5. All foods will be stored wrapped or in covered containers, labeled and dated, and arranged
in a manner to prevent cross contamination.

canned goods will be appropriately inspected for dents, rust or bulges. Damaged cans will be segregated
and clearly identified for return to vendor or disposal as appropriate.
During an observation on 2/28/23 at 6:45 AM with the CDM the meat slicing equipment was covered. The
CDM removed the covering and the meat slicer was observed to have rust-colored debris and food
particles on the center connector of the blade. An observation was made of a knife holder on the wall that
had a clear plexiglass covering. Food crumbs were observed in the base of the knife holder. An observation
of the convection oven showed it had a thick buildup of food and debris on the external

Administer the facility in a manner that enables it to use its resources effectively and efficiently.
Level of Harm - Immediate
jeopardy to resident health or
safety
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
observation, interview, and record review, the facility administration failed to effectively and efficiently attain
or maintain the highest practicable physical, mental, and psychosocial well-being of each resident by not
assuming full responsibility for the day to day operations of the facility by allowing unqualified facility staff to
work outside of their scope of practice, administering IV (intravenous) medications via midline catheters for
1 of 1 residents, Resident #197, without certification of education, training and validation of competency for
IV medication infusion to residents who are administered IV medications. IV infusion without IV certification
and validation of competency could result in the likelihood of serious harm and/or death for residents who
are administered IV medication infusions. This can result in an increased risk of infection, damage to veins
and injection sites, an air embolism, phlebitis, and blood clots, which can occur from a poorly administered
IV infusion. Phlebitis can cause blood clots, which can block important blood vessels, causing tissue
damage or even be life-threatening. Lack of proper training and verification to assess IV patency (the line is
open and not blocked allowing the treatment to flow directly into the patient's vein) can increase the spread
of infection. Lack of training and verified competency to assess the insertion site for signs and symptoms of
phlebitis or infection, fluid leaking (resulting in the treatment not being administered as ordered), redness,
pain, tenderness, and swelling can result in the likelihood of increased risk of serious harm and/or death.

certification records for Staff A, LPN. He was contacted and cannot produce a certification. If the MAR
[Medication Administration Record/Medication Administration History] is initialed by a nurse, it means the
medication was given by that nurse unless if there is parenthesis which means they made a note. The Staff
Developer and Human Resources are responsible for verification of staff certification. During the interview a
request was made for the IV Certification for Staff G.
During an interview on [DATE] at 10:30 AM Staff C, Unit Manager LPN, stated, LPNs need to have IV
certification. The Human Resource staff and Staff Development is responsible for making sure staff have all
certifications upon hire.
During an interview on [DATE] at 10:41 AM Staff A, LPN, stated, Yesterday I helped administer medication.
The Assistant Director of Nursing was in the room with me. I hung medication, flushed, and cleaned the
port. I was supervised. I am always supervised by an RN [Registered Nurse]. The facility did not request IV
certification from me upon hire. I did not know I needed IV certification. I have done IV medication
administration before. I do not know how to place an IV in an arm [to insert an IV] but I know how to hang
medication. When I was hired, I was trained and shown how to administer medication via IV. The first time
the nurse showed me [how to administer IV medications]. After that, she has always supervised me doing
the administration and flushes. The RN is always with me at all times. Normally I will do it and chart under
my name since he is my resident.
During an interview on [DATE] at 12:55 PM the Human Resource/ABOM (Assistant Business Office
Manager) stated, The IV certification would be kept in the employee file only if provided, it is not requested.
During an interview on [DATE] at 12:55 PM the Staffing Coordinator stated, Staff is assigned to halls. I
leave it up to the nursing staff to tell me if they are capable or not of treating the resident. I hold a CNA

and give them up to 30 days. If the staff does not provide the certification, I have to readdress. During

Review of the personnel record for Staff A, LPN documented the LPN's hire date as [DATE].
During an interview on [DATE] at 1:21 PM the DON stated, Newly hired staff are told upon hire if there is
something that they are not able to do or do not feel comfortable there is a 24-hour RN that is on call that is
able to assist. We stress constantly that if a task is not in their scope of practice or they are unable to
complete ask for assistance. Upon hire, the Staff Development will do the competency and skills fair. My
expectation for [Staff A's name] would be to get an RN that was on duty and assist and perform the task for
him. It is not the practice of the facility to allow a non-IV Certified LPN to administer IV medications
supervised. That was not the case there was no RN in the building that approved of [Staff A's name] to
administer IV medications. It would be falsification of documentation to only initial; an LPN will not be
allowed to initial the task if they had not performed the task themselves.
During an interview on [DATE] at 1:40 PM the ADON stated, I have not been in the room with an LPN to
supervise or walk through IV medication administration for [Resident #197's name]. Onboarding is done by
Staff Development and Human Resources goes behind with a checklist. I don't get an official notification of
who is certified. I understand that someone will learn in school what their scope is that would be my
expectation. The Staff Developer is the one who should be checking the paperwork and verifying that all
LPNs have all certifications. I don't know if the Staff Developer reports to the DON since everything in the
building falls under her. I will find out who is responsible for verifying agency [LPNs]. I have provided
emergency cover for 7 PM-7 AM.
During an interview on [DATE] at 2:05 PM the Medical Director stated, If nursing staff is non-IV certified,
they should not be doing medication administration via IV. I was not aware that LPNs were administering
medications via IV and were not certified. If the staff is not certified they might not know what they are doing
and there is a risk for infection, mishandling of the IV port, bleeding, pain, the list can go on, but it is only a
potential.
During an interview on [DATE] at 10:35 AM, the DON stated, The facility does not have IV Certification for
[Staff A's name] and [Staff G's name].
During an interview on [DATE] at 2:56 PM, Staff G stated, I became a nurse in the 1990s and while working
at [Name of facility], I took a [Name of pharmacy] IV certification course in [Name of City], but I have not
been able to locate the paperwork.
During an interview on [DATE] at 2:58 PM, the DON, stated, There was an IV certified LPN, but I don't know
why [Staff G's name] didn't ask for assistance. Ultimately, as far as the nursing department, I oversee
nursing staff qualifications and the Staff Developer. [Staff G's name] verbally told us that she is IV certified.
IV certification was requested. No documentation was provided of IV certifications for Staff A or Staff G.

of practice for LPNs to flush Central Venous Catheters in long term care facilities, but it is the individual
facility's decision to allow or not allow LPNs to perform the procedure. On the other hand, if the State Board
of Nursing prohibits LPNs from flushing Central Venous Catheter in long term care facilities, then a facility
may NEVER allow an LPN to perform that procedure.
