Honor the resident's right to request, refuse, and/or discontinue treatment, to participate in or refuse to
participate in experimental research, and to formulate an advance directive.
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
interview and record review, the facility failed to ensure 2 residents (Resident #16 and Resident #19) of 12
residents reviewed for advanced directives were informed and provided written information concerning their
right to choose and formulate an advance directive.
Findings include:
Review of the admission record for Resident #16 documented the resident was admitted into the facility on
9/13/2019 with diagnoses that included trigeminal neuralgia, unspecified calorie-protein malnutrition, major
depressive disorder, anxiety disorder, unspecified atrial fibrillation, and chronic obstructive pulmonary
disease. Review of the records failed to reveal Resident #16 had an advanced directive or was informed of
the right to choose an advanced directive.
Review of the admission record for Resident #19 documented the resident was admitted into the facility on
[DATE] with diagnoses that included hemiplegia and hemiparesis following cerebral infarction affecting right
dominant side, unspecified protein-calorie malnutrition, chronic pain syndrome, acute kidney failure and
unspecified atrial fibrillation. Review of records failed to reveal Resident #19 had an advanced directive or
was informed of the right to choose an advanced directive.
During an interview on 9/13/2022 at 12:26 PM, the facility admissions staff stated the residents' right to
choose an advance directive is included with the facility admission packet but there was no policy related to
providing the resident with their right to choose an advance directive. The admission staff member verified
she was unable to locate documentation Resident #16 and Resident #19 had been informed of the right to
choose an advance directive.

Immediately tell the resident, the resident's doctor, and a family member of situations (injury/decline/room,
etc.) that affect the resident.
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
observation, interview, and record review the facility failed to immediately consult with the resident's
physician and notify the residents' representatives when there was a change of condition for 2 of 2
residents reviewed for changes in condition, Resident #29 and #42, resulting in the residents having to be
treated by IV (intravenous) antibiotic therapy due to infection. Delay in notifying the physician of a wound,
critical labs, and resident change in condition due to infection can result in the spread of the infection into
the deeper tissues of the body, the infection can travel through the blood to other parts of the body and
could become life threatening.
Findings include:
1. Review of the admission record documented Resident #29 was admitted to the facility on [DATE] with the
following diagnoses: encounter for surgical aftercare following surgery on the circulatory system,
atherosclerotic heart disease of native coronary artery (heart disease) with angina pectoris (chest pain),
acute systolic (congestive) heart failure (a chronic condition in which the heart doesn't pump blood as well
as it should), pleural effusion (fluid that builds up between the tissue that lines the lungs and the chest due
to poor pumping of the heart), acute and chronic respiratory failure (a condition in which the lungs cannot
get enough oxygen into the blood or remove the carbon dioxide) with hypoxia (low oxygen levels in the
blood), pneumonia, cardiac pacemaker, pressure ulcer sacral region, stage 3, hyperlipidemia (high
cholesterol), type 2 diabetes mellitus, major depressive disorder, right leg below the knee amputation,
essential hypertension (high blood pressure), non ST elevation myocardial infarction (a heart attack),
paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (an irregular heart beat), peripheral vascular disease (a blood circulation
disorder that causes the blood vessels to narrow), chronic kidney disease, and left below the knee
amputation.
Review of the Tissue Analytics (TA) wound care note for Resident #29 dated 8/29/2022 reads, Sacral

Review of the medical record for Resident #29 does not document the physician or Advanced Practice
Registered Nurse (APRN) were notified of the final culture report dated 9/3/2022 through 9/7/2022.
Review of the physician order for Resident #29 dated 9/7/2022 reads, Midline/PICC [peripherally inserted
central catheter] placement for IV [intravenous] ABX [antibiotics].
Review of the physician order for Resident #29 dated 9/10/2022 reads, Gentamycin Sulfate solution use 90
mg [milligrams] every 12 hours. For MRSA wounds for 10 days in 0.9% NSS [normal saline solution] 100 ml
[milliliters].
Review of the document from The IV Company for Resident #29 dated 9/8/2022 reads, Consultation:
Reason for consultation: Midline; reason for insertion: drugs. Post insertion data -line removal: Line
insertion: Midline Insertion site: left, attempts: 1; Cephalic, blood return: positive; internal length 15; arm
circumference: 33. Comments: Midline left cephalic. No complications. Time in 1333 [1:33 PM], Time out:
1353 [1:53 PM].
During an interview on 9/14/2022 at 8:05 AM, the Director of Nursing (DON) stated, I did not call the nurse
practitioner with the critical lab result of the wound. I gave it to the nurse. I don't see that the critical lab
result was called. The lab result should have been called. I'm not sure why it wasn't. There is no progress
note and no change of condition done. We failed this resident [Resident #29]. We did not do what we should
have for the resident. I did not make sure that the staff called the practitioner. I was not aware that the final
culture results weren't called. We should have called the results to the nurse practitioner.
During an interview on 9/14/2022 at 10:38 AM, the Advanced Practice Registered Nurse (APRN) stated, I
was not notified of any critical lab results. I saw the full wound culture report the day that I ordered the
midline and antibiotics because the Gentamycin covered everything that was present in the coccyx wound
culture. I believe I was notified that the culture report was back on 9/7/2022. I would have changed the
antibiotics to IV Gentamycin sooner had I been notified. I would have discontinued the Doxycycline on
9/3/2022 because it did not cover the other organisms. I would say this was a delay in care. He [Resident
#29] definitely could have worsened without appropriate treatment and the appropriate antibiotics for his
wound. I expect that all labs will be called so we can provide care that is appropriate for any given infection.
During an interview on 9/15/2022 at 10:35 AM Staff F, Registered Nurse (RN) stated, I did speak with
[APRN's name] on September 2, to let her know that the coccyx wound culture had MRSA, but the rest of
the culture was not available. I was not on the next several days and did not call the culture reports. There is
no documentation that anyone called the doctor or the practitioner. They should have. I finally called
[APRN's name] and she came in and ordered the midline and the antibiotics.

Review of the lab results report for Resident #29 dated 9/11/2022 reads, Gentamicin trough result: 5.4 mcg

staff name]. Results were read back to caller. [Aiming for a level of < 1 mcg/mL approximately 6 hours
prior to the next dose ensure there is a drug-free window in order to minimize drug accumulation within
proximal tubules/major component of the kidney].
Review of the medical record for Resident #29 does not document the physician, pharmacist or APRN were
notified of the critical laboratory result.
Review of the lab results report for Resident #29 dated 9/12/2022 reads, Gentamycin trough result: 2.6
mcg/ml. Critical lab result called to [Staff name] on 9/13/2022 at 11:47 AM by [Laboratory Staff name].
Results were read back to caller.
Review of the medical record does not document the physician, pharmacist or APRN were notified of the
critical laboratory result.
During an interview on 9/15/2022 at 11:15 AM the Medical Director stated I understand that the culture
reports were not called to the physician or mid-level. I told them that there were two different areas, and
they are independent of one another, and no one should wait for another culture of a different area to come
back. This is a breach of protocol and this needs to be improved. We have much space for improvement
and training and education needs to be done for the staff. We need to reach a better-quality matrix for the
residents, and I think we will. All critical lab reports should be called to the physicians.
During an interview on 9/15/2022 at 3:10 PM the DON stated, It does not look like we have called these
results [Gentamycin trough results] to the pharmacist or the nurse practitioner. They are critical results and
should be called immediately. We usually have a doctor's order to have pharmacy dose gentamicin, I don't
know why we don't. I see there were two critical results and neither of them were called when they should
have been.
During a telephone interview on 9/16/2022 at 9:22 AM the pharmacist stated, We were not informed of the
critical gentamycin trough that was completed on 9/11/2022. We did attempt to contact the facility multiple
times and have notes to indicate that multiple messages were left requesting that the nursing staff call us
back and they did not. I see a note that we spoke to [Staff O, Licensed Practical Nurse's name] on
9/13/2022, we recommended that the gentamycin dose get reduced to 80 mg twice a day and a repeat
peak and trough be completed after the second dose. We are having a hard time maintaining
communication with the nurses. The gentamycin is currently on hold until we get another peak and trough
and then we will decide further dosing. The potential side effects would be damage to the eight cranial
nerves which would have an effect on hearing, causing possible hearing loss and nephrotoxicity [a rapid
decline in kidney function due to toxic effects of medications].
Review of the policy and procedure titled, Lab and Diagnostic Results - Clinical Protocol with an approval
date of 1/27/2022 reads, Review by Nursing: 1. When test reports are reported to the facility, a nurse will
first review the results. a. If staff who first receive or review lab and diagnostic test results cannot follow the
remainder of this procedure for reporting and documenting the results and their implications, another nurse
in the facility (supervisor, charge nurse, etc.) should follow or coordinate the procedure. 2. Before contacting
the physician, the person who is to communicate results to a physician will gather, review, and organize the
information and be prepared to discuss the following (to the extent that such information is available): c.

tests were obtained (for example, as a routine screening or follow up); to assess a condition change or
recent onset of signs and symptoms, or to monitor a serum medication level; d. How test results may relate
to the individual's current condition and treatment. 3. A nurse will identify the urgency of communicating,
with the Attending Physician based on physician request, seriousness of any abnormality, and the
individual's current condition. 4. A nurse will try to determine whether the test was done: b. To assess a
condition change or recent onset of signs and symptoms. Identifying situations that warrant immediate
notification: 1. Nursing staff will consider the following factors to help identify situations requiring prompt
physician notification concerning lab or diagnostic test results: Whether the result should be conveyed to a
physician regardless of other circumstances (that is, the abnormal result is problematic regardless of any
other factors); Whether the resident/patients' clinical status is unclear or he/she has signs of acute illness or
condition change and is not stable or improving, or there are no previous results for comparison. Options for
physician notification: 1. A physician can be notified by phone, fax voicemail, e-mail, mail, pager, or a
telephone message to another person acting as the physician's agent (for example, office staff) b. Direct
voice communication with the physician is the preferred means for presenting any results requiring
immediate notification, especially when the resident's clinical status is unstable or current treatment needs
review or clarification.
Review of the policy and procedure titled Change in Condition issued on 4/1/2022 reads Policy: It will be the
policy of this facility to notify the physician, family, resident, and/or responsible party/resident representative
(as is applicable) of significant changes in condition and providing treatment(s) according to the residents
wishes and physician orders. Procedure: 2. When a change is noted, gather pertinent data such as vital
signs, weights, and other clinical observations. 4. When significant changes in skin condition or weight are
noted it is appropriate to contact the physician and responsible party/resident representative if applicable to
notify them and receive orders such as consultations, root cause analysis or implementation of further
monitoring. 7. Contact the primary physician to update him/her to the change in condition. In the event the
primary physician cannot be notified, attempt to contact the facility's medical director.
2. Record review of the admission record documented Resident #42 was admitted to the facility on [DATE]
with the following diagnoses: type 2 diabetes mellitus, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, chronic pain,
generalized anxiety disorder, bipolar disorder, essential (primary) hypertension, atherosclerotic heart
disease of native coronary artery (heart disease) without angina pectoris (chest pain), and primary
osteoarthritis right shoulder.

During an interview on 9/13/2022 at 1:45 PM the DON stated, I see that there were no treatment orders in
place for [Resident #42's name], after her fall. I do not see any provider notification or request for wound
care orders for her skin tear. I see the culture and that she needed to have a midline and antibiotics for the
infection of the skin tear. We should have asked for treatment orders, and we did not. I could see that you
might consider that we did not provide her the proper care and it was part of the reason she needed the
midline and antibiotics. I don't see any notes or a change of condition form in the chart where we notified
the doctor or nurse practitioner until the arm was red and swollen.
During an interview on 9/14/22 at 7:48 AM Resident #42 stated, I was having a lot of pain in my arm after I
fell. I kept telling them, but they weren't listening. Finally, someone did and that's when they got the wound
culture. No one would look at it when I asked and told them how much it was hurting me. They did not
change the dressing on it at all.

During an interview on 9/14/22 at 8:59 AM Staff E, Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN), stated, I did find her
[Resident #42] on the floor. I heard a thud and found her on her knees on the floor. She had a skin tear and
had a cut on her forehead. I assessed her and cleaned her forehead and right elbow. I was able to close the
wound on her elbow with steristrips directly after she fell. I think I left a message for the nurse practitioner,
but don't recall that she called back. We should follow up when a resident has any injuries and see if the
practitioner wants any type of skin care done. I did not obtain any orders to treat her skin tear and I
probably should have, but I did provide immediate treatment to her wounds. I did an assessment. I probably
should have called the nurse practitioner back before I went off shift.
During a telephone interview conducted on 9/14/2022 at 10:25 AM the APRN stated, I do not think that I
was notified of the patient's fall until 9/6/2022 late in the evening, a nurse notified me that she had a red
and draining arm from the skin tear. I gave orders for treatment and saw her the next day when I took a
wound culture. I was not called and asked for any wound treatments prior to that time. I absolutely feel that
the wound became infected due to a lack of wound care and that she would not have required additional
treatments had she been provided daily wound care. I do feel this was a delay in treatment and caused a
need for additional, more invasive treatments. I expect that staff will inform me of any changes in patient
condition. All skin concerns should be addressed, and we should be called.
During an interview conducted on 9/14/2022 at 2:10 PM the Regional Nurse Consultant stated, We have
not provided change of condition notification to the providers for [Resident #42 and #29's names]. We were
notified of the critical lab results for [Resident #29's name]. We did notify the provider. There is a note in the
chart, but when the final culture was back, we did not call the provider. I don't see that there was
information about whether the additional sensitivities were sensitive to the oral antibiotic he [Resident #29]
was on. We should have called. There is no excuse that I could give you for why they weren't notified.
[Resident #42's name] was not provided any wound care after the skin tear. We should have notified the
physician or nurse practitioner and we should have gotten orders for wound care. I can't give you any clear
reason why this was not done. She did have a need for a midline and antibiotics because the wound
became infected. We did not do what we should have.
Review of the policy and procedure titled Wound Care issue date of 4/1/2022 reads, Policy: It is the policy
of this facility to provide assessment and identification of residents at risk of developing pressure injuries,
other wounds and treatment of skin impairment. Procedure: 2. Skin will be assessed/evaluated for the
presence of developing pressure injuries or other changes in skin condition on a weekly basis at least once
each week or as needed by a licensed nurse. 11. Document the progression of the wound being treated.
Such observations should include items size, staging (if applicable), odors, exudate, tunneling, etiology, etc.
12. Contact the physician for additional order changes as is appropriate or to notify of skin condition

The Immediate Jeopardy was removed onsite after the receipt of an acceptable immediate jeopardy
removal plan. The survey team verified the facility's actions for removal of immediacy to prevent the
likelihood of harm and/or possible death: Residents #29 and #42 were assessed for skin impairments and
their physicians were notified on 9/13/2022. Ad Hoc QAPI [Quality Assurance Performance Improvement]
was held on 9/13/2022 attended by Medical Director, Administrator, Director of Nursing, Infection
Preventionist, and Social Services Director to implement a performance improvement plan. The facility has
conducted root cause analysis on 9/14/2022 for delay in treatment and neglect. The facility completed skin
assessments on 93 residents for any wound concerns and obtained orders for three additional residents
identified with concerns. On 9/14/2022, the Administrator and Director of Nursing

Level of Harm - Minimal harm
or potential for actual harm
Based on observation, interview, and record review the facility failed to ensure the privacy of 1 resident,
Resident #69, of 2 residents reviewed for dementia care.
Residents Affected - Few
Findings include:
On 9/12/2022 at 9:08 AM, Resident #69 was observed from the hallway lying in his bed attempting to use a
urinal. Resident #69's privacy curtain was not pulled around Resident #69's bed. Resident #69 was not
clothed, and his unclothed body was exposed through the open door of his bedroom to passersby.
During an interview on 9/12/2022 beginning at 9:10 AM, Staff A, Licensed Practical Nurse, stated Resident
#69 is still trying to use the urinal. She confirmed Resident #69's unclothed body was visible through the
open door of his bedroom. She reported that she spoke to Resident #69 and told him his door was open so
everyone walking down the hall can see you. Staff A added Resident #69 replied oh, that's not good.
Review of the facility policy titled ADL (Activities of Daily Living) Care and Assistance, issued 4/1/2022 read

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 residents were free from medical
neglect when they did not immediately consult with the resident's physician and notify the residents'
representatives when there was a change of condition for 2 of 2 residents, Residents #29 and #42,
resulting in a delay of care. Delay in notifying the physician of a wound, critical labs, or resident change in
condition can result in the spread of infection into the deeper tissues of the body, the infection can travel
through the blood to other parts of the body and could become life threatening.
Findings include:
1. Review of the admission record documented Resident #29 was admitted to the facility on [DATE] with the
following diagnoses: encounter for surgical aftercare following surgery on the circulatory system,
atherosclerotic heart disease of native coronary artery (heart disease) with angina pectoris (chest pain),
acute systolic (congestive) heart failure (a chronic condition in which the heart doesn't pump blood as well
as it should), pleural effusion (fluid that builds up between the tissue that lines the lungs and the chest due
to poor pumping of the heart), acute and chronic respiratory failure (a condition in which the lungs cannot
get enough oxygen into the blood or remove the carbon dioxide) with hypoxia (low oxygen levels in the
blood), pneumonia, cardiac pacemaker, pressure ulcer sacral region, stage 3, hyperlipidemia (high
cholesterol), type 2 diabetes mellitus, major depressive disorder, right leg below the knee amputation,
essential hypertension (high blood pressure), non ST elevation myocardial infarction (a heart attack),
paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (an irregular heart beat), peripheral vascular disease (a blood circulation
disorder that causes the blood vessels to narrow), chronic kidney disease, and left below the knee
amputation.
Review of the Tissue Analytics (TA) wound care note for Resident #29 dated 8/29/2022 reads, Sacral
wound 1.97 cm [centimeters] x 3.33 cm x 0.20 cm cleanse with n/s [normal saline] Med Honey, calcium
alginate cover with bordered gauze, daily. In house acquired 8/23/22, Recommendation: obtain wound

Review of the medical record for Resident #29 does not document the physician or Advanced Practice
Registered Nurse (APRN) were notified of the final culture report dated 9/3/2022 through 9/7/2022.
Review of the physician order for Resident #29 dated 9/7/2022 reads, Midline/PICC [peripherally inserted
central catheter] placement for IV [intravenous] ABX [antibiotics].
Review of the physician order for Resident #29 dated 9/10/2022 reads, Gentamycin Sulfate solution use 90
mg [milligrams] every 12 hours. For MRSA wounds for 10 days in 0.9% NSS [normal saline solution] 100 ml
[milliliters].
Review of the document from The IV Company for Resident #29 dated 9/8/2022 reads, Consultation:
Reason for consultation: Midline; reason for insertion: drugs. Post insertion data -line removal: Line
insertion: Midline Insertion site: left, attempts: 1; Cephalic, blood return: positive; internal length 15; arm
circumference: 33. Comments: Midline left cephalic. No complications. Time in 1333 [1:33 PM], Time out:
1353 [1:53 PM].
During an interview on 9/14/2022 at 8:05 AM, the Director of Nursing (DON) stated, I did not call the nurse
practitioner with the critical lab result of the wound. I gave it to the nurse. I don't see that the critical lab
result was called. The lab result should have been called. I'm not sure why it wasn't. There is no progress
note and no change of condition done. We failed this resident [Resident #29]. We did not do what we should
have for the resident. I did not make sure that the staff called the practitioner. I was not aware that the final
culture results weren't called. We should have called the results to the nurse practitioner.
During an interview on 9/14/2022 at 10:38 AM, the Advanced Practice Registered Nurse (APRN) stated, I
was not notified of any critical lab results. I saw the full wound culture report the day that I ordered the
midline and antibiotics because the Gentamycin covered everything that was present in the coccyx wound
culture. I believe I was notified that the culture report was back on 9/7/2022. I would have changed the
antibiotics to IV Gentamycin sooner had I been notified. I would have discontinued the Doxycycline on
9/3/2022 because it did not cover the other organisms. I would say this was a delay in care. He [Resident
#29] definitely could have worsened without appropriate treatment and the appropriate antibiotics for his
wound. I expect that all labs will be called so we can provide care that is appropriate for any given infection.
During an interview on 9/15/2022 at 10:35 AM Staff F, Registered Nurse (RN) stated, I did speak with
[APRN's name] on September 2, to let her know that the coccyx wound culture had MRSA, but the rest of
the culture was not available. I was not on the next several days and did not call the culture reports. There is
no documentation that anyone called the doctor or the practitioner. They should have. I finally called
[APRN's name] and she came in and ordered the midline and the antibiotics.

Review of the lab results report for Resident #29 dated 9/11/2022 reads, Gentamicin trough result: 5.4 mcg

staff name]. Results were read back to caller. [Aiming for a level of < 1 mcg/mL approximately 6 hours
prior to the next dose ensure there is a drug-free window in order to minimize drug accumulation within
proximal tubules/major component of the kidney].
Review of the medical record for Resident #29 does not document the physician, pharmacist or APRN were
notified of the critical laboratory result.
Review of the lab results report for Resident #29 dated 9/12/2022 reads, Gentamycin trough result: 2.6
mcg/ml. Critical lab result called to [Staff name] on 9/13/2022 at 11:47 AM by [Laboratory Staff name].
Results were read back to caller.
Review of the medical record does not document the physician, pharmacist or APRN were notified of the
critical laboratory result.
During an interview on 9/15/2022 at 11:15 AM the Medical Director stated I understand that the culture
reports were not called to the physician or mid-level. I told them that there were two different areas, and
they are independent of one another, and no one should wait for another culture of a different area to come
back. This is a breach of protocol and this needs to be improved. We have much space for improvement
and training and education needs to be done for the staff. We need to reach a better-quality matrix for the
residents, and I think we will. All critical lab reports should be called to the physicians.
During an interview on 9/15/2022 at 3:10 PM the DON stated, It does not look like we have called these
results [Gentamycin trough results] to the pharmacist or the nurse practitioner. They are critical results and
should be called immediately. We usually have a doctor's order to have pharmacy dose gentamicin, I don't
know why we don't. I see there were two critical results and neither of them were called when they should
have been.
During a telephone interview on 9/16/2022 at 9:22 AM the pharmacist stated, We were not informed of the
critical gentamycin trough that was completed on 9/11/2022. We did attempt to contact the facility multiple
times and have notes to indicate that multiple messages were left requesting that the nursing staff call us
back and they did not. I see a note that we spoke to [Staff O, Licensed Practical Nurse's name] on
9/13/2022, we recommended that the gentamycin dose get reduced to 80 mg twice a day and a repeat
peak and trough be completed after the second dose. We are having a hard time maintaining
communication with the nurses. The gentamycin is currently on hold until we get another peak and trough
and then we will decide further dosing. The potential side effects would be damage to the eight cranial
nerves which would have an effect on hearing, causing possible hearing loss and nephrotoxicity [a rapid
decline in kidney function due to toxic effects of medications].

staff by patient family, other staff or any other person will be considered as possible abuse if it meets any of
the following criteria: d. Any complaint of deprivation by an individual caregiver of goods and services
necessary to maintain physical, mental, and psychological well-being to include toileting issues.
Review of the policy and procedure titled, Lab and Diagnostic Results - Clinical Protocol with an approval
date of 1/27/2022 reads, Review by Nursing: 1. When test reports are reported to the facility, a nurse will
first review the results. a. If staff who first receive or review lab and diagnostic test results cannot follow the
remainder of this procedure for reporting and documenting the results and their implications, another nurse
in the facility (supervisor, charge nurse, etc.) should follow or coordinate the procedure. 2. Before contacting
the physician, the person who is to communicate results to a physician will gather, review, and organize the
information and be prepared to discuss the following (to the extent that such information is available): c.
Why the lab and diagnostic tests were obtained (for example, as a routine screening or follow up); to assess
a condition change or recent onset of signs and symptoms, or to monitor a serum medication level; d. How
test results may relate to the individual's current condition and treatment. 3. A nurse will identify the urgency
of communicating, with the Attending Physician based on physician request, seriousness of any
abnormality, and the individual's current condition. 4. A nurse will try to determine whether the test was
done: b. To assess a condition change or recent onset of signs and symptoms. Identifying situations that
warrant immediate notification: 1. Nursing staff will consider the following factors to help identify situations
requiring prompt physician notification concerning lab or diagnostic test results: Whether the result should
be conveyed to a physician regardless of other circumstances (that is, the abnormal result is problematic
regardless of any other factors); Whether the resident/patients' clinical status is unclear or he/she has signs
of acute illness or condition change and is not stable or improving, or there are no previous results for
comparison. Options for physician notification: 1. A physician can be notified by phone, fax voicemail,
e-mail, mail, pager, or a telephone message to another person acting as the physician's agent (for example,
office staff) b. Direct voice communication with the physician is the preferred means for presenting any
results requiring immediate notification, especially when the resident's clinical status is unstable or current
treatment needs review or clarification.
Review of the policy and procedure titled Change in Condition issued on 4/1/2022 reads Policy: It will be the
policy of this facility to notify the physician, family, resident, and/or responsible party/resident representative
(as is applicable) of significant changes in condition and providing treatment(s) according to the residents
wishes and physician orders. Procedure: 2. When a change is noted, gather pertinent data such as vital
signs, weights, and other clinical observations. 4. When significant changes in skin condition or weight are
noted it is appropriate to contact the physician and responsible party/resident representative if applicable to
notify them and receive orders such as consultations, root cause analysis or implementation of further
monitoring. 7. Contact the primary physician to update him/her to the change in condition. In the event the
primary physician cannot be notified, attempt to contact the facility's medical director.
2. Record review of the admission record documented Resident #42 was admitted to the facility on [DATE]
with the following diagnoses: type 2 diabetes mellitus, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, chronic pain,
generalized anxiety disorder, bipolar disorder, essential (primary) hypertension, atherosclerotic heart
disease of native coronary artery (heart disease) without angina pectoris (chest pain), and primary
osteoarthritis right shoulder.

During an interview on 9/13/2022 at 1:45 PM the DON stated, I see that there were no treatment orders in
place for [Resident #42's name], after her fall. I do not see any provider notification or request for wound
care orders for her skin tear. I see the culture and that she needed to have a midline and antibiotics for the
infection of the skin tear. We should have asked for treatment orders, and we did not. I could see that you
might consider that we did not provide her the proper care and it was part of the reason she needed the
midline and antibiotics. I don't see any notes or a change of condition form in the chart where we notified
the doctor or nurse practitioner until the arm was red and swollen.
During an interview on 9/14/22 at 7:48 AM Resident #42 stated, I was having a lot of pain in my arm after I
fell. I kept telling them, but they weren't listening. Finally, someone did and that's when they got the wound
culture. No one would look at it when I asked and told them how much it was hurting me. They did not
change the dressing on it at all.
During an interview on 9/14/22 at 8:59 AM Staff E, Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN), stated, I did find her
[Resident #42] on the floor. I heard a thud and found her on her knees on the floor. She had a skin tear and
had a cut on her forehead. I assessed her and cleaned her forehead and right elbow. I was able to close the
wound on her elbow with steristrips directly after she fell. I think I left a message for the nurse practitioner,
but don't recall that she called back. We should follow up when a resident has any injuries and see if the
practitioner wants any type of skin care done. I did not obtain any orders to treat her skin tear and I
probably should have, but I did provide immediate treatment to her wounds. I did an assessment. I probably
should have called the nurse practitioner back before I went off shift.
During a telephone interview conducted on 9/14/2022 at 10:25 AM the APRN stated, I do not think that I
was notified of the patient's fall until 9/6/2022 late in the evening, a nurse notified me that she had a red
and draining arm from the skin tear. I gave orders for treatment and saw her the next day when I took a
wound culture. I was not called and asked for any wound treatments prior to that time. I absolutely feel that
the wound became infected due to a lack of wound care and that she would not have required additional
treatments had she been provided daily wound care. I do feel this was a delay in treatment and caused a
need for additional, more invasive treatments. I expect that staff will inform me of any changes in patient
condition. All skin concerns should be addressed, and we should be called.
During an interview conducted on 9/14/2022 at 2:10 PM the Regional Nurse Consultant stated, We have
not provided change of condition notification to the providers for [Resident #42 and #29's names]. We were
notified of the critical lab results for [Resident #29's name]. We did notify the provider. There is a note in the
chart, but when the final culture was back, we did not call the provider. I don't see that there was
information about whether the additional sensitivities were sensitive to the oral antibiotic he [Resident #29]
was on. We should have called. There is no excuse that I could give you for why they weren't notified.
[Resident #42's name] was not provided any wound care after the skin tear. We should have notified the
physician or nurse practitioner and we should have gotten orders for wound care. I can't give you any clear
reason why this was not done. She did have a need for a midline and antibiotics because the wound
became infected. We did not do what we should have.
Review of the policy and procedure titled Wound Care issue date of 4/1/2022 reads, Policy: It is the policy
of this facility to provide assessment and identification of residents at risk of developing pressure injuries,
other wounds and treatment of skin impairment. Procedure: 2. Skin will be assessed/evaluated for the
presence of developing pressure injuries or other changes in skin condition on

The Immediate Jeopardy was removed onsite after the receipt of an acceptable immediate jeopardy
removal plan. The survey team verified the facility's actions for removal of immediacy to prevent the
likelihood of harm and/or possible death: Residents #29 and #42 were assessed for skin impairments and
their physicians were notified on 9/13/2022. Ad Hoc QAPI [Quality Assurance Performance Improvement]
was held on 9/13/2022 attended by Medical Director, Administrator, Director of Nursing, Infection
Preventionist, and Social Services Director to implement a performance improvement plan. The facility has
conducted root cause analysis on 9/14/2022 for delay in treatment and neglect. The facility completed skin
assessments on 93 residents for any wound concerns and obtained orders for three additional residents
identified with concerns. On 9/14/2022, the Administrator and Director of Nursing were educated by the
Regional Director of Clinical Operations on the components of administration to include monitoring of
facility systems during administrative/clinical stand up and standdown to identify areas that may rise to the
level of investigating ANEMMI. By 9/16/2022, the facility trained 28 of 28 licensed nursing staff on change in
condition, skin and wound care and abuse and neglect, which was verified through staff interviews.

Review of the document from The IV Company for Resident #29 dated 9/8/2022 reads, Consultation:
Reason for consultation: Midline; reason for insertion: drugs. Post insertion data -line removal: Line
insertion: Midline Insertion site: left, attempts: 1; Cephalic, blood return: positive; internal length 15; arm
circumference: 33. Comments: Midline left cephalic. No complications. Time in 1333 [1:33 PM], Time out:
1353 [1:53 PM].
During an interview on 9/14/2022 at 8:05 AM, the Director of Nursing (DON) stated, I did not call the nurse
practitioner with the critical lab result of the wound. I gave it to the nurse. I don't see that the critical lab
result was called. The lab result should have been called. I'm not sure why it wasn't. There is no progress
note and no change of condition done. We failed this resident [Resident #29]. We did not do what we should
have for the resident. I did not make sure that the staff called the practitioner. I was not aware that the final
culture results weren't called. We should have called the results to the nurse practitioner.
During an interview on 9/14/2022 at 10:38 AM, the Advanced Practice Registered Nurse (APRN) stated, I
was not notified of any critical lab results. I saw the full wound culture report the day that I ordered the
midline and antibiotics because the Gentamycin covered everything that was present in the coccyx wound
culture. I believe I was notified that the culture report was back on 9/7/2022. I would have changed the
antibiotics to IV Gentamycin sooner had I been notified. I would have discontinued the Doxycycline on
9/3/2022 because it did not cover the other organisms. I would say this was a delay in care. He [Resident
#29] definitely could have worsened without appropriate treatment and the appropriate antibiotics for his
wound. I expect that all labs will be called so we can provide care that is appropriate for any given infection.
During an interview on 9/15/2022 at 10:35 AM Staff F, Registered Nurse (RN) stated, I did speak with
[APRN's name] on September 2, to let her know that the coccyx wound culture had MRSA, but the rest of
the culture was not available. I was not on the next several days and did not call the culture reports. There is
no documentation that anyone called the doctor or the practitioner. They should have. I finally called
[APRN's name] and she came in and ordered the midline and the antibiotics.
Review of the lab results report for Resident #29 dated 9/11/2022 reads, Gentamicin trough result: 5.4 mcg
[micrograms]/ml [milliliter]. Critical lab result called to [Staff name] on 9/11/2022 1:40 PM by [Laboratory
staff name]. Results were read back to caller. [Aiming for a level of < 1 mcg/mL approximately 6 hours
prior to the next dose ensure there is a drug-free window in order to minimize drug accumulation within
proximal tubules/major component of the kidney].
Review of the medical record for Resident #29 does not document the physician, pharmacist or APRN were
notified of the critical laboratory result.
Review of the lab results report for Resident #29 dated 9/12/2022 reads, Gentamycin trough result: 2.6

Results were read back to caller.
Review of the medical record does not document the physician, pharmacist or APRN were notified of the
critical laboratory result.
During an interview on 9/15/2022 at 11:15 AM the Medical Director stated I understand that the culture
reports were not called to the physician or mid-level. I told them that there were two different areas, and
they are independent of one another, and no one should wait for another culture of a

different area to come back. This is a breach of protocol and this needs to be improved. We have much
space for improvement and training and education needs to be done for the staff. We need to reach a
better-quality matrix for the residents, and I think we will. All critical lab reports should be called to the
physicians.
During an interview on 9/15/2022 at 3:10 PM the DON stated, It does not look like we have called these
results [Gentamycin trough results] to the pharmacist or the nurse practitioner. They are critical results and
should be called immediately. We usually have a doctor's order to have pharmacy dose gentamicin, I don't
know why we don't. I see there were two critical results and neither of them were called when they should
have been.
During a telephone interview on 9/16/2022 at 9:22 AM the pharmacist stated, We were not informed of the
critical gentamycin trough that was completed on 9/11/2022. We did attempt to contact the facility multiple
times and have notes to indicate that multiple messages were left requesting that the nursing staff call us
back and they did not. I see a note that we spoke to [Staff O, Licensed Practical Nurse's name] on
9/13/2022, we recommended that the gentamycin dose get reduced to 80 mg twice a day and a repeat
peak and trough be completed after the second dose. We are having a hard time maintaining
communication with the nurses. The gentamycin is currently on hold until we get another peak and trough
and then we will decide further dosing. The potential side effects would be damage to the eight cranial
nerves which would have an effect on hearing, causing possible hearing loss and nephrotoxicity [a rapid
decline in kidney function due to toxic effects of medications].
Review of the policy and procedure titled ANE (Abuse, Neglect and Exploitation) and Investigations issue
date of 4/1/2022 reads Policy: It will be the policy of this facility honor resident rights and address with
employees the seven (7) components regarding mistreatment, abuse, neglect, sexual misconduct, injuries
of unknown source, involuntary seclusion, corporal punishment, misappropriation of resident property or
funds or use of physical or chemical restraint not required to treat the residents symptoms in accordance
with federal law. It will be the policy of this facility to ensure that all alleged violations of federal or state
laws, which include mistreatment, neglect, abuse (verbal mental physical or sexual, injuries of
undetermined source, involuntary seclusion, corporal punishment, misappropriation of resident property or
funds or use of physical or chemical restraint) not in accordance with regulation to treat residents'
symptoms will be reported immediately to the administrator/DNS abuse coordinator designee. Appropriate
agencies will be notified in accordance with existing laws. Definitions: Neglect is the failure of the facility, its
employees or service providers to provide goods and services to a resident that are necessary to avoid
physical harm, pain, mental anguish, or emotional distress. 3. Prevention: Staff, residents, and resident
representatives will be instructed of how to identify and report concerns, events, and grievances. They will
also be given the name of the facilities designated abuse contact person as well as numbers for state
agencies. This will be done through resident council, family council, in service training, one to one if
indicated, information posted in the facility. The facility environment will be monitored to prevent any
additional ANE through: Monitoring staff actions while caring for residents. The facility will monitor reported
events to determine if any pattern, trend, or frequency exists to attempt to minimize the occurrence or
injury. All events will be addressed at the monthly Quality Assurance Performance Improvement (QAPI)
meeting.

results and their implications, another nurse in the facility (supervisor, charge nurse, etc.) should follow or
coordinate the procedure. 2. Before contacting the physician, the person who is to communicate results to a
physician will gather, review, and organize the information and be prepared to discuss the following (to the
extent that such information is available): c. Why the lab and diagnostic tests were obtained (for example,
as a routine screening or follow up); to assess a condition change or recent onset of signs and symptoms,
or to monitor a serum medication level; d. How test results may relate to the individual's current condition
and treatment. 3. A nurse will identify the urgency of communicating, with the Attending Physician based on
physician request, seriousness of any abnormality, and the individual's current condition. 4. A nurse will try
to determine whether the test was done: b. To assess a condition change or recent onset of signs and
symptoms. Identifying situations that warrant immediate notification: 1. Nursing staff will consider the
following factors to help identify situations requiring prompt physician notification concerning lab or
diagnostic test results: Whether the result should be conveyed to a physician regardless of other
circumstances (that is, the abnormal result is problematic regardless of any other factors); Whether the
resident/patients' clinical status is unclear or he/she has signs of acute illness or condition change and is
not stable or improving, or there are no previous results for comparison. Options for physician notification:
1. A physician can be notified by phone, fax voicemail, e-mail, mail, pager, or a telephone message to
another person acting as the physician's agent (for example, office staff) b. Direct voice communication with
the physician is the preferred means for presenting any results requiring immediate notification, especially
when the resident's clinical status is unstable or current treatment needs review or clarification.
Review of the policy and procedure titled Change in Condition issued on 4/1/2022 reads Policy: It will be the
policy of this facility to notify the physician, family, resident, and/or responsible party/resident representative
(as is applicable) of significant changes in condition and providing treatment(s) according to the residents
wishes and physician orders. Procedure: 2. When a change is noted, gather pertinent data such as vital
signs, weights, and other clinical observations. 4. When significant changes in skin condition or weight are
noted it is appropriate to contact the physician and responsible party/resident representative if applicable to
notify them and receive orders such as consultations, root cause analysis or implementation of further
monitoring. 7. Contact the primary physician to update him/her to the change in condition. In the event the
primary physician cannot be notified, attempt to contact the facility's medical director.
2. Record review of the admission record documented Resident #42 was admitted to the facility on [DATE]
with the following diagnoses: type 2 diabetes mellitus, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, chronic pain,
generalized anxiety disorder, bipolar disorder, essential (primary) hypertension, atherosclerotic heart
disease of native coronary artery (heart disease) without angina pectoris (chest pain), and primary
osteoarthritis right shoulder.

skin assessments or nursing progress notes indicating the physician or nurse practitioner were notified and
wound care orders obtained.
Review of the nursing progress note for Resident #42 dated 9/6/2022 at 10:45 PM reads, Swelling and
redness noted to right elbow some serosanguinous discharge noted. No odor. This nurse dressed site until
further evaluation.
Review of the Nursing Progress note for Resident #42 dated 9/7/2022 at 6:14 AM reads, Noted that skin
tear from previous fall is reddened, painful and warm to touch, with serosanguinous drainage. Call placed to
[APRN's name] to notify, awaiting call back with any new orders. Dressing orders clarified and dressing in
place CDI [clean, dry and intact].
Review of the Nursing Progress note for Resident #42 dated 9/7/2022 at 11:25 AM reads, Skin tear from
previous fall right elbow, red, warm, and tender. ARNP did a wound culture, cleaned, and applied new
dressing awaiting orders.
Review of the treatment administration record for the month of August revealed no evidence of physician's
orders related to care for the right elbow skin tear.
Review of the treatment administration record for the month of September documented treatment to the
right elbow skin tear began on 9/7/2022. There were no other orders related to care for the right elbow skin
tear.
Review of the physician order for Resident #42 dated 9/8/2022 reads, May insert midline with 1% lidocaine
for IV ABX.
Review of the physician order for Resident #42 dated 9/7/2022 reads Piperacillin Sod [sodium] Tazobactam So [sodium] solution reconstituted 3.0-375 gm [gram], use 3.375 gram intravenously every 6
hours for infection for 10 days.
Review of The IV Company document for Resident #42 dated 9/8/2022 reads Consultation: Reason for

During an interview on 9/13/2022 at 1:45 PM the DON stated, I see that there were no treatment orders in
place for [Resident #42's name], after her fall. I do not see any provider notification or request for wound
care orders for her skin tear. I see the culture and that she needed to have a midline and antibiotics for the
infection of the skin tear. We should have asked for treatment orders, and we did not. I could see that you
might consider that we did not provide her the proper care and it was part of the reason she needed the
midline and antibiotics. I don't see any notes or a change of condition form in the chart where we notified
the doctor or nurse practitioner until the arm was red and swollen.

During an interview on 9/14/22 at 7:48 AM Resident #42 stated, I was having a lot of pain in my arm after I
fell. I kept telling them, but they weren't listening. Finally, someone did and that's when they got the wound
culture. No one would look at it when I asked and told them how much it was hurting me. They did not
change the dressing on it at all.
During an interview on 9/14/22 at 8:59 AM Staff E, Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN), stated, I did find her
[Resident #42] on the floor. I heard a thud and found her on her knees on the floor. She had a skin tear and
had a cut on her forehead. I assessed her and cleaned her forehead and right elbow. I was able to close the
wound on her elbow with steristrips directly after she fell. I think I left a message for the nurse practitioner,
but don't recall that she called back. We should follow up when a resident has any injuries and see if the
practitioner wants any type of skin care done. I did not obtain any orders to treat her skin tear and I
probably should have, but I did provide immediate treatment to her wounds. I did an assessment. I probably
should have called the nurse practitioner back before I went off shift.
During a telephone interview conducted on 9/14/2022 at 10:25 AM the APRN stated, I do not think that I
was notified of the patient's fall until 9/6/2022 late in the evening, a nurse notified me that she had a red
and draining arm from the skin tear. I gave orders for treatment and saw her the next day when I took a
wound culture. I was not called and asked for any wound treatments prior to that time. I absolutely feel that
the wound became infected due to a lack of wound care and that she would not have required additional
treatments had she been provided daily wound care. I do feel this was a delay in treatment and caused a
need for additional, more invasive treatments. I expect that staff will inform me of any changes in patient
condition. All skin concerns should be addressed, and we should be called.
During an interview conducted on 9/14/2022 at 2:10 PM the Regional Nurse Consultant stated, We have
not provided change of condition notification to the providers for [Resident #42 and #29's names]. We were
notified of the critical lab results for [Resident #29's name]. We did notify the provider. There is a note in the
chart, but when the final culture was back, we did not call the provider. I don't see that there was
information about whether the additional sensitivities were sensitive to the oral antibiotic he [Resident #29]
was on. We should have called. There is no excuse that I could give you for why they weren't notified.
[Resident #42's name] was not provided any wound care after the skin tear. We should have notified the
physician or nurse practitioner and we should have gotten orders for wound care. I can't give you any clear
reason why this was not done. She did have a need for a midline and antibiotics because the wound
became infected. We did not do what we should have.
During an interview on 9/15/2022 at 1:25 PM the Director of Nursing stated, I should have reviewed and
brought both concerns to QAPI [Quality Assurance and Performance Improvement] when we did not
complete the skin assessments and when we needed to get midlines and antibiotics. We should have
completed full house skin sweeps and identified any other concerns. Absolutely should have investigated
these and brought them to QAPI. We failed the residents, and we can do much better.
During an interview on 9/16/2022 at 9:05 AM the Administrator stated, I am ultimately responsible for the
running of the facility, but the Director of Nursing is responsible for all the clinical operations.
Review of the policy and procedure titled Wound Care issue date of 4/1/2022 reads, Policy: It is the policy
of this facility to provide assessment and identification of residents at risk of developing pressure injuries,

The Immediate Jeopardy was removed onsite after the receipt of an acceptable immediate jeopardy
removal plan. The survey team verified the facility's actions for removal of immediacy to prevent the
likelihood of harm and/or possible death: Residents #29 and #42 were assessed for skin impairments and
their physicians were notified on 9/13/2022. Ad Hoc QAPI [Quality Assurance Performance Improvement]
was held on 9/13/2022 attended by Medical Director, Administrator, Director of Nursing, Infection
Preventionist, and Social Services Director to implement a performance improvement plan. The facility has
conducted root cause analysis on 9/14/2022 for delay in treatment and neglect. The facility completed skin
assessments on 93 residents for any wound concerns and obtained orders for three additional residents
identified with concerns. On 9/14/2022, the Administrator and Director of Nursing were educated by the
Regional Director of Clinical Operations on the components of administration to include monitoring of
facility systems during administrative/clinical stand up and standdown to identify areas that may rise to the
level of investigating ANEMMI. By 9/16/2022, the facility trained 28 of 28 licensed nursing staff on change in
condition, skin and wound care and abuse and neglect, which was verified through staff interviews.

**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** 3) Review of
the admission record for Resident #79 documented the resident was admitted to the facility on [DATE] with
diagnoses that include unspecified dementia with behavioral disturbance, generalized anxiety disorder and
psychotic disorder with delusions due to known physiological condition.
Review of Resident #79's Preadmission Screening and Resident Review (PASRR) Level I Screen showed
the facility had not completed Section IV: PASRR Screen Completion that documented whether Resident
#79 may or may not be admitted to a nursing facility or whether Resident #79 required a Level II evaluation
based on diagnoses of serious mental illness or intellectual disability.
During an interview on 9/13/2022 at 1:38 PM, the Social Services Assistant verified Resident #79's Level I
PASRR was incomplete and did not document whether Resident #79 may or may not be admitted to a
nursing facility or whether Resident #79 required a Level II evaluation based on diagnoses of serious
mental illness or intellectual disability.
Based on observation, interview, and record review the facility failed to maintain accurate and complete
medical records for midline catheter dressing changes for 2 of 3 residents, Residents #42, and #29, and
Preadmission Screening and Resident Review (PASRR) for 1 of 3 residents, Resident #79.
Findings include:
1. During an observation on 9/12/2022 at 12:14 PM Resident #42 was observed resting in bed with a left
upper arm single lumen midline catheter. The transparent dressing was dated 9/8/2022 and there was a
piece of gauze under the transparent dressing.
Review of the admission record documented that Resident #42 was admitted to the facility on [DATE] with

Set up an ongoing quality assessment and assurance group to review quality deficiencies and develop
corrective plans of action.
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
observation, interview, and record review the facility failed to utilize the Quality Assessment and Process
Improvement (QAPI) process when the administrative staff failed to investigate, develop, and implement
appropriate plans of correction to identify and correct quality deficiencies of the facility failing to notify the
physician of critical laboratory results, wound culture results and wound care needs resulting in a delay in
care and treatment for 2 of 2 residents, Residents #29 and #42. Delay in wound care treatment can result in
the spread of infection into the deeper tissues of the body, the infection can travel through the blood to other
parts of the body and could become life threatening.
Findings Include:
1. Review of the admission record documented Resident #29 was admitted to the facility on [DATE] with the
following diagnoses: encounter for surgical aftercare following surgery on the circulatory system,
atherosclerotic heart disease of native coronary artery (heart disease) with angina pectoris (chest pain),
acute systolic (congestive) heart failure (a chronic condition in which the heart doesn't pump blood as well
as it should), pleural effusion (fluid that builds up between the tissue that lines the lungs and the chest due

Review of the medical record for Resident #29 does not document the physician or Advanced Practice
Registered Nurse (APRN) were notified of the final culture report dated 9/3/2022 through 9/7/2022.
Review of the physician order for Resident #29 dated 9/7/2022 reads, Midline/PICC [peripherally inserted

Review of the physician order for Resident #29 dated 9/10/2022 reads, Gentamycin Sulfate solution use 90
mg [milligrams] every 12 hours. For MRSA wounds for 10 days in 0.9% NSS [normal saline solution] 100 ml
[milliliters].
Review of the document from The IV Company for Resident #29 dated 9/8/2022 reads, Consultation:
Reason for consultation: Midline; reason for insertion: drugs. Post insertion data -line removal: Line
insertion: Midline Insertion site: left, attempts: 1; Cephalic, blood return: positive; internal length 15; arm
circumference: 33. Comments: Midline left cephalic. No complications. Time in 1333 [1:33 PM], Time out:
1353 [1:53 PM].
During an interview on 9/14/2022 at 8:05 AM, the Director of Nursing (DON) stated, I did not call the nurse
practitioner with the critical lab result of the wound. I gave it to the nurse. I don't see that the critical lab
result was called. The lab result should have been called. I'm not sure why it wasn't. There is no progress
note and no change of condition done. We failed this resident [Resident #29]. We did not do what we should
have for the resident. I did not make sure that the staff called the practitioner. I was not aware that the final
culture results weren't called. We should have called the results to the nurse practitioner.
During an interview on 9/14/2022 at 10:38 AM, the Advanced Practice Registered Nurse (APRN) stated, I
was not notified of any critical lab results. I saw the full wound culture report the day that I ordered the
midline and antibiotics because the Gentamycin covered everything that was present in the coccyx wound
culture. I believe I was notified that the culture report was back on 9/7/2022. I would have changed the
antibiotics to IV Gentamycin sooner had I been notified. I would have discontinued the Doxycycline on
9/3/2022 because it did not cover the other organisms. I would say this was a delay in care. He [Resident
#29] definitely could have worsened without appropriate treatment and the appropriate antibiotics for his
wound. I expect that all labs will be called so we can provide care that is appropriate for any given infection.
During an interview on 9/15/2022 at 10:35 AM Staff F, Registered Nurse (RN) stated, I did speak with
[APRN's name] on September 2, to let her know that the coccyx wound culture had MRSA, but the rest of
the culture was not available. I was not on the next several days and did not call the culture reports. There is
no documentation that anyone called the doctor or the practitioner. They should have. I finally called
[APRN's name] and she came in and ordered the midline and the antibiotics.

staff name]. Results were read back to caller. [Aiming for a level of < 1 mcg/mL approximately 6 hours
prior to the next dose ensure there is a drug-free window in order to minimize drug accumulation within
proximal tubules/major component of the kidney].
Review of the medical record for Resident #29 does not document the physician, pharmacist or APRN were
notified of the critical laboratory result.
Review of the lab results report for Resident #29 dated 9/12/2022 reads, Gentamycin trough result: 2.6
mcg/ml. Critical lab result called to [Staff name] on 9/13/2022 at 11:47 AM by [Laboratory Staff name].
Results were read back to caller.
Review of the medical record does not document the physician, pharmacist or APRN were notified of the
critical laboratory result.
During an interview on 9/15/2022 at 11:15 AM the Medical Director stated I understand that the culture
reports were not called to the physician or mid-level. I told them that there were two different areas, and
they are independent of one another, and no one should wait for another culture of a different area to come
back. This is a breach of protocol and this needs to be improved. We have much space for improvement
and training and education needs to be done for the staff. We need to reach a better-quality matrix for the
residents, and I think we will. All critical lab reports should be called to the physicians.
During an interview on 9/15/2022 at 3:10 PM the DON stated, It does not look like we have called these
results [Gentamycin trough results] to the pharmacist or the nurse practitioner. They are critical results and
should be called immediately. We usually have a doctor's order to have pharmacy dose gentamicin, I don't
know why we don't. I see there were two critical results and neither of them were called when they should
have been.
During a telephone interview on 9/16/2022 at 9:22 AM the pharmacist stated, We were not informed of the
critical gentamycin trough that was completed on 9/11/2022. We did attempt to contact the facility multiple
times and have notes to indicate that multiple messages were left requesting that the nursing staff call us
back and they did not. I see a note that we spoke to [Staff O, Licensed Practical Nurse's name] on
9/13/2022, we recommended that the gentamycin dose get reduced to 80 mg twice a day and a repeat
peak and trough be completed after the second dose. We are having a hard time maintaining
communication with the nurses. The gentamycin is currently on hold until we get another peak and trough
and then we will decide further dosing. The potential side effects would be damage to the eight cranial
nerves which would have an effect on hearing, causing possible hearing loss and nephrotoxicity [a rapid
decline in kidney function due to toxic effects of medications].
During an interview on 9/15/2022 at 1:25 PM the Director of Nursing stated, I should have reviewed and
brought both concerns to QAPI when we did not complete the skin assessments and when we needed to
get midlines and antibiotics. We should have completed full house skin sweeps and identified any other
concerns. Absolutely we should have investigated these and brought them to QAPI. We failed the residents,
and we can do much better.

maintain an ongoing facility wide quality assurance and performance improvement program that builds on
the quality assessment and assurance program to actively pursue quality of care and quality of life goals.
Policy interpretation and implementation the primary purpose of the quality assurance and performance
improvement plan is to establish data- driven, facility wide processes that improve the quality of care,
quality of life and clinical outcomes of our residents. Five strategic elements: 3. feedback, data systems and
monitoring. A. Systems are in place to monitor care and services. B. Systems are designed to incorporate
feedback from caregivers, residence, family, and staff as appropriate. C. Care processes and outcomes are
monitored using performance indicators. These performance indicators are measured against quality
benchmarks and targets that the facility has established. D. Adverse events are tracked, monitored, and
investigated as they occur. E. Action plans are implemented to prevent recurrence of adverse events. QAPI
action steps: 13. Gathering and using QAPI data in an organized and meaningful way. Areas that may be
appropriate to monitor and evaluate include a. clinical outcomes: pressure ulcers, infections, medication
use, pain, falls, etc. 14. Set measurable goals for improvement that may include percentage of reductions
(or increases) from the measured baseline of a particular goal. 16. Recognizing patterns in systems of care
that can be associated with quality problems. 17. Prioritizing identified quality issues based on risk of harm
and frequency of occurrence and determining which will become the focus of PIPS [Performance
Improvement Plans].18. Planning, conducting and documenting PIPS.19. Conducting root cause analysis to
identify the issues that contribute to recognized problems. 20. Taking systematic action targeted at the root
causes of identified problems. This encompasses the utilization of corrective actions that provides
significant and meaningful steps to improve processes and do not depend on staff to simply do the right
thing.
Review of the policy and procedure titled ANE (Abuse, Neglect and Exploitation) and Investigations issue
date of 4/1/2022 reads Policy: It will be the policy of this facility honor resident rights and address with
employees the seven (7) components regarding mistreatment, abuse, neglect, sexual misconduct, injuries
of unknown source, involuntary seclusion, corporal punishment, misappropriation of resident property or
funds or use of physical or chemical restraint not required to treat the residents symptoms in accordance
with federal law. It will be the policy of this facility to ensure that all alleged violations of federal or state
laws, which include mistreatment, neglect, abuse (verbal mental physical or sexual, injuries of
undetermined source, involuntary seclusion, corporal punishment, misappropriation of resident property or
funds or use of physical or chemical restraint) not in accordance with regulation to treat residents'
symptoms will be reported immediately to the administrator/DNS abuse coordinator designee. Appropriate
agencies will be notified in accordance with existing laws. Definitions: Neglect is the failure of the facility, its
employees or service providers to provide goods and services to a resident that are necessary to avoid
physical harm, pain, mental anguish, or emotional distress. 3. Prevention: Staff, residents, and resident
representatives will be instructed of how to identify and report concerns, events, and grievances. They will
also be given the name of the facilities designated abuse contact person as well as numbers for state
agencies. This will be done through resident council, family council, in service training, one to one if
indicated, information posted in the facility. The facility environment will be monitored to prevent any
additional ANE through: Monitoring staff actions while caring for residents. The facility will monitor reported
events to determine if any pattern, trend, or frequency exists to attempt to minimize the occurrence or
injury. All events will be addressed at the monthly Quality Assurance Performance Improvement (QAPI)
meeting.

reports are reported to the facility, a nurse will first review the results. a. If staff who first receive or review
lab and diagnostic test results cannot follow the remainder of this procedure for reporting and documenting
the results and their implications, another nurse in the facility (supervisor, charge nurse, etc.) should follow
or coordinate the procedure. 2. Before contacting the physician, the person who is to communicate results
to a physician will gather, review, and organize the information and be prepared to discuss the following (to
the extent that such information is available): c. Why the lab and diagnostic tests were obtained (for
example, as a routine screening or follow up); to assess a condition change or recent onset of signs and
symptoms, or to monitor a serum medication level; d. How test results may relate to the individual's current
condition and treatment. 3. A nurse will identify the urgency of communicating, with the Attending Physician
based on physician request, seriousness of any abnormality, and the individual's current condition. 4. A
nurse will try to determine whether the test was done: b. To assess a condition change or recent onset of
signs and symptoms. Identifying situations that warrant immediate notification: 1. Nursing staff will consider
the following factors to help identify situations requiring prompt physician notification concerning lab or
diagnostic test results: Whether the result should be conveyed to a physician regardless of other
circumstances (that is, the abnormal result is problematic regardless of any other factors); Whether the
resident/patients' clinical status is unclear or he/she has signs of acute illness or condition change and is
not stable or improving, or there are no previous results for comparison. Options for physician notification:
1. A physician can be notified by phone, fax voicemail, e-mail, mail, pager, or a telephone message to
another person acting as the physician's agent (for example, office staff) b. Direct voice communication with
the physician is the preferred means for presenting any results requiring immediate notification, especially
when the resident's clinical status is unstable or current treatment needs review or clarification.
Review of the policy and procedure titled Change in Condition issued on 4/1/2022 reads Policy: It will be the
policy of this facility to notify the physician, family, resident, and/or responsible party/resident representative

was part of the reason she needed the midline and antibiotics. I don't see any notes or a change of
condition form in the chart where we notified the doctor or nurse practitioner until the arm was red and
swollen.
During an interview on 9/14/22 at 7:48 AM Resident #42 stated, I was having a lot of pain in my arm after I
fell. I kept telling them, but they weren't listening. Finally, someone did and that's when they got the wound
culture. No one would look at it when I asked and told them how much it was hurting me. They did not
change the dressing on it at all.
During an interview on 9/14/22 at 8:59 AM Staff E, Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN), stated, I did find her
[Resident #42] on the floor. I heard a thud and found her on her knees on the floor. She had a skin tear and
had a cut on her forehead. I assessed her and cleaned her forehead and right elbow. I was able to close the
wound on her elbow with steristrips directly after she fell. I think I left a message for the nurse practitioner,
but don't recall that she called back. We should follow up when a resident has any injuries and see if the
practitioner wants any type of skin care done. I did not obtain any orders to treat her skin tear and I
probably should have, but I did provide immediate treatment to her wounds. I did an assessment. I probably
should have called the nurse practitioner back before I went off shift.
During a telephone interview conducted on 9/14/2022 at 10:25 AM the APRN stated, I do not think that I
was notified of the patient's fall until 9/6/2022 late in the evening, a nurse notified me that she had a red
and draining arm from the skin tear. I gave orders for treatment and saw her the next day when I took a
wound culture. I was not called and asked for any wound treatments prior to that time. I absolutely feel that
the wound became infected due to a lack of wound care and that she would not have required additional
treatments had she been provided daily wound care. I do feel this was a delay in treatment and caused a
need for additional, more invasive treatments. I expect that staff will inform me of any changes in patient
condition. All skin concerns should be addressed, and we should be called.
During an interview conducted on 9/14/2022 at 2:10 PM the Regional Nurse Consultant stated, We have
not provided change of condition notification to the providers for [Resident #42 and #29's names]. We were
notified of the critical lab results for [Resident #29's name]. We did notify the provider. There is a note in the
chart, but when the final culture was back, we did not call the provider. I don't see that there was
information about whether the additional sensitivities were sensitive to the oral antibiotic he [Resident #29]
was on. We should have called. There is no excuse that I could give you for why they weren't notified.
[Resident #42's name] was not provided any wound care after the skin tear. We should have notified the
physician or nurse practitioner and we should have gotten orders for wound care. I can't give you any clear
reason why this was not done. She did have a need for a midline and antibiotics because the wound
became infected. We did not do what we should have.
Review of the policy and procedure titled Wound Care issue date of 4/1/2022 reads, Policy: It is the policy
of this facility to provide assessment and identification of residents at risk of developing pressure injuries,
other wounds and treatment of skin impairment. Procedure: 2. Skin will be assessed/evaluated for the
presence of developing pressure injuries or other changes in skin condition on a weekly basis at least once
each week or as needed by a licensed nurse. 11. Document the progression of the wound being treated.
Such observations should include items size, staging (if applicable), odors, exudate, tunneling, etiology, etc.
12. Contact the physician for additional order changes as is appropriate or to notify of skin condition
changes or refusals of care.

The Immediate Jeopardy was removed onsite after the receipt of an acceptable immediate jeopardy
removal plan. The survey team verified the facility's actions for removal of immediacy to prevent the
likelihood of harm and/or possible death: Residents #29 and #42 were assessed for skin impairments and
their physicians were notified on 9/13/2022. Ad Hoc QAPI [Quality Assurance Performance Improvement]
was held on 9/13/2022 attended by Medical Director, Administrator, Director of Nursing, Infection
Preventionist, and Social Services Director to implement a performance improvement plan. The facility has
conducted root cause analysis on 9/14/2022 for delay in treatment and neglect. The facility completed skin
assessments on 93 residents for any wound concerns and obtained orders for three additional residents
identified with concerns. On 9/14/2022, the Administrator and Director of Nursing were educated by the
Regional Director of Clinical Operations on the components of administration to include monitoring of
facility systems during administrative/clinical stand up and standdown to identify areas that may rise to the
level of investigating ANEMMI. By 9/16/2022, the facility trained 28 of 28 licensed nursing staff on change in
condition, skin and wound care and abuse and neglect, which was verified through staff interviews.
