Residents Affected - Few
Based on observation, interview, and record review, the facility failed to ensure a newly admitted resident
(#6) out of five newly admitted residents reviewed was free from significant medication errors as evidenced
by not receiving physician ordered medications for a period of seven days resulting in a readmission to a
local hospital due to a hematoma and exacerbation of her medical diagnoses to include a flare-up of
Multiple Sclerosis (MS) symptoms to include paralysis in her hands, confusion, and a low hemoglobin
requiring a transfusion of packed red blood cells (PRBCs) .
On 8/9/24, Resident #6 was admitted to the facility with medication orders from the acute facility. Resident
#6's ordered medications were not entered into the electronic medical record. On 8/16/24, Resident #6
went to a scheduled outside medical appointment, which resulted in a transfer and admission back to the
hospital on 8/16/24 with a hematoma. Facility staff did not discover Resident #6's missed medications until
the re-admission back to the hospital.
The failure to administer significant medications for a period of 7 days to include Prednisone, Amiodarone,
Gabapentin, Ferrous Sulfate, and Wellbutrin resulted in serious harm and could have led to additional
medical complications to include further serious medical complications, injury and possible death. This
failure resulted in the determination of Immediate Jeopardy on 8/9/24. The findings of Immediate Jeopardy
were determined to be removed on 8/29/24 and the severity and scope was reduced to a D.
Findings included:
Review of the census page in the electronical medical record revealed Resident #6 was initially admitted to
the facility on Friday, 08/09/24 at 4:20 PM from an acute care facility. Review of the admission Record
showed Resident #6 was re-admitted to the facility on [DATE] and had diagnoses to include subsequent
encounter fracture with routine healing, multiple sclerosis (MS), paraplegia, urinary tract infection (UTI),
major depressive disorder recurrent, ventricular fibrillation, paroxysmal atrial fibrillation and other
pulmonary embolism without acute COR pulmonale (alteration in the structure and function of the right
ventricle of the heart caused by a primary disorder of the respiratory system), acute kidney failure, anemia,
acute respiratory failure with hypoxia, and personal history of other venous thrombosis and embolism.
Review of the [Local Hospital] Discharge Patient Med Rec (Medication Reconciliation) - Single report, dated
08/08/24, showed: This is the list of medications for you to take upon discharge. Please take this list to your
primary care doctor at the next visit. Your hospital doctor wants you to take the drugs on this list when you
go home. The list of medications included the following:

During an interview on 08/27/24 at 9:50 a.m. Resident #6 stated she was out of it and did not remember
much about her stay at the facility between 08/09/24 and 08/16/24. Resident #6 stated she knew the
medications she took and why. Resident #6 stated that had she not been confused during the initial
admission on [DATE]. She reported that if she had not become confused, she would have asked about the
facility not administering her regular medications. Resident #6 stated her family member was very upset
about the facility not administering all the medications as ordered during the initial admission. Resident #6
stated both she and her family member still did not understand why the facility was not treating the multiple
sclerosis (MS) flareup causing her hands to be paralyzed and did not understand why the facility would not
provide her with Prednisone, which assists her in regaining her functions when MS attacks. Resident #6
stated because of the latest MS flareup she was not able to feed herself because the MS flareup attacked
her hands.
Residents Affected - Few
During an interview on 08/27/24 at 10:32 a.m. Resident #6's family member stated the Director of Nursing
(DON) from the facility called him to let him know Resident #6 did not receive her medications from the
initial admission date on 08/09/24 through her hospitalization on 08/16/24. The family member stated the
DON told him the facility did not input Resident #6's medications into the medical record. The family
member stated when he came to visit Resident #6, he spoke with staff who came into Resident #6's room
and voiced his concerns that Resident #6 seemed to be out of it. The family member stated Resident #6
was fuzzy about things and was not able to pay attention, which was not her normal. The family member
stated prior to her initial admission on [DATE] Resident #6 was her normal self, and he noticed the change
in her status during the week after her initial admission to the facility until the time of discharge to the
hospital on [DATE]. The family member stated Resident #6 went out to the wound center and when the
wound care physician was looking at the wound, they noticed the hematoma on her arm. The family
member stated the wound care center immediately sent her over to the ER (emergency room) where she
was admitted into the hospital. The family member stated he noticed a positive change in her mental status
back to normal once she was at the hospital and stated she began acting more like her coherent self again.
During an interview on 08/27/24 at 2:50 p.m. the DON stated Resident #6 went to a scheduled outside
appointment on 08/16/24. The DON stated it was then that the outside provider sent Resident #6 to the ER.
The DON stated she reviewed Resident #6's medical record when Resident #6 was hospitalized . This was
when she recognized Resident #6 was not administered all her physician ordered medications. The DON
stated Resident #6 did not have a DVT (deep vein thrombosis) and the hospital said it was just cellulitis.
The DON stated upon reviewing Resident #6's medications it was discovered they were not reconciled and
were not entered into the medical record. The DON stated that Staff E, Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN),
was the admitting nurse for Resident #6 on Friday, 08/09/24. The DON stated that Staff E, LPN should have
ensured all medications were entered into the electronical medical record as medications are a priority. The
DON stated her understanding was Staff E, LPN started the admission process and was called away and
failed to communicate with the oncoming nurse that all the medications were not added into the electronical
medical record. The DON stated nurses are supposed to document the medication reconciliation. The DON
stated after speaking with Staff E, LPN she was informed that Staff E, LPN left at 7:00 p.m., the end of her
scheduled shift, and assumed the oncoming nurse scheduled for the 7:00 p.m. to 7:00 a.m. shift would
complete Resident #6's physician ordered medications. The DON stated she then spoke with Staff F, LPN
(the oncoming nurse) for the 7:00 p.m. to 7:00 a.m. shift. The DON discovered Staff F, LPN thought the
admission was completed by the 7:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m. nurse since some entries were completed in the
physician orders of Resident #6's medical record. The DON stated chart scrubs

(reviews) should be completed on Mondays (more than 48 hours after Resident #6's admission), however
the Unit Manager ended up having to work on the medication cart passing medications and the Assistant
Director of Nursing (ADON) was not in the facility.
During an interview on 08/27/24 at 5:50 p.m. Staff E, LPN stated the admission process was to get a list of
admissions, and the nurses were responsible for getting the chart ready. Staff E, LPN stated the nurse was
also responsible for checking the new admissions' medication lists. Staff E, LPN stated that her work
schedule was usually 7:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m. shift and medications were the responsibility of the night shift
nurse working 7:00 p.m. to 7:00 a.m. since the medications were usually delivered after 7:00 p.m.
During an interview on 08/28/24 at 1:45 p.m. Staff F, LPN stated he has worked in the facility for two years.
Staff F, LPN stated when the new admission comes to the facility it is the nurse's responsibility to complete
the admission, however if the nurse is new, a seasoned nurse will help to train them. Staff F, LPN stated the
nurse's responsibility for a resident who is newly admitted would consist of assessments to include skin and
wounds, consents for treatment, and then the physician orders for medications are entered into the
electronical medical record. Staff F, LPN stated, ensuring everything is entered into the electronical medical
record, a seasoned nurse would check to make sure a medication reconciliation was completed. Staff F,
LPN stated if medications were not available the nurse could also look in the [Emergency Drug Kit] for the
medications.
An interview was conducted with the Consultant Pharmacist on 8/28/24 at 8:37 a.m. The consultant
reported that although he does not review new admissions, new admission medications should arrive to the
facility within 24 hours.
During an interview on 08/28/24 at 12:00 p.m. the NP confirmed Resident #6 had medications that were not
entered into the medical record when she was initially admitted into the facility on [DATE]. The NP stated
the missing medications were not found until after Resident #6 went out to the hospital.
During an interview on 08/28/24 at 3:11p.m., the Pharmacist in Charge (PC) stated in review of Resident
#6's medications upon admission all the medications put into the electronical medical record system were
house stocked medications except for Metoprolol. The PC stated that should the drug Amiodarone be
stopped abruptly this drug was a serious drug for the heart and should be tapered off if possible. The PC
stated for the drug Gabapentin this drug should be tapered off gradually over a week's time and had
withdrawal side effects such as Tachycardia and Seizures. The PC stated for the drug Wellbutrin this drug
should also be tapered off and if stopped abruptly withdrawal symptoms would be depression, irritation and
confusion however all these medications could cause confusion.
Review of the website medlineplus.gov showed: Gabapentin should be gradually reduced. Do not stop
taking gabapentin without talking to your doctor, even if you experience side effects such as unusual
changes in behavior or mood. If you suddenly stop taking gabapentin tablets, capsules, oral solution, you
may experience withdrawal symptoms such as anxiety, difficulty falling asleep or staying asleep, nausea,
pain, and sweating. If you are taking gabapentin to treat seizures and you suddenly stop taking the
medication, you may experience seizures more often. Your doctor may decrease your dose gradually over
at least a week.
Review of the website addictionresources.com showed: Wellbutrin if discontinued may cause the following
withdrawal symptoms within two to four days after discontinuation of the drug:

Review of the website medlineplus.gov showed: Amiodarone You may need to be closely monitored or even
hospitalized when you stop taking amiodarone .
Cognitive Effects: Difficulty concentrating, memory lapse and cognitive fog.
Review of the website https://my.clevelandclinic.org/health/drugs/14568-iron-oral-supplements-for-anemia
showed: Ferrous sulfate is a type of iron supplement. Iron is one of the minerals your body needs to
function properly. Your body needs iron to produce hemoglobin and myoglobin. Hemoglobin is a protein in
your red blood cells. Hemoglobin helps your blood carry oxygen from your lungs to all your body's tissues
and organs. Myoglobin is a protein in your muscles and helps supply oxygen to the cells in your muscles. If
you don't have enough iron, your body can't make these proteins, and you may develop iron-deficiency
anemia. Iron-deficiency anemia is the most common type of anemia. Anemia is a blood disorder in which
your body doesn't have enough red blood cells.
During an interview on 08/28/24 at 4:12 p.m., the Medical Director (MD)(who was the resident's primary
care physician at the facility) stated the process for new admissions would be medications are uploaded
into the electronic medical record system by the nurse and then facility staff would message him so he
could look at the new resident's profile within 24 hours. The MD stated he was not aware that Resident #6
was not getting all her medications. The MD stated that he was at the facility and met with Resident #6 on
08/12/24. The MD stated that according to his physician notes, he only discussed Metoprolol with Resident
#6 so that must have been the only medication that was documented in her medical record. The MD stated
he was not aware all the medications were not entered into the electronic medical record system, but stated
he did remember questioning that she only had one medication and had found it odd. The MD stated that if
you review my physician note when I came to the facility and examined Resident #6 for her re-admission
you will see I listed a lot more medications because the facility had entered all the medications into the
electronic medical record system during the re-admission process.
During an interview on 08/29/24 at 4:00 p.m. Registered Nurse (RN)/Regional Director of Clinical Services
(RDCS) confirmed the medication errors for Resident #6 at the time of her initial admission on [DATE]. The
RN/RDCS stated a resident missing a cardiac medication is significant.
Review of the policy titled, Physician Orders, revised 3/3/21, revealed: The center will ensure that physician
orders are appropriately and timely documented in the medical record. The policy described the procedure
for admission orders as Information received from the referring facility or agency to be reviewed, verified
with the physician, and transcribed to the electronic medical record. The attending physician will review and
confirm orders. Confirmation of admission orders requires that the physician sign and date the order during,
or as soon as practical after it is provided, to maintain an accurate medical record.

Safeguard resident-identifiable information and/or maintain medical records on each resident that are in
accordance with accepted professional standards.
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Cross
Reference F760
Based on observation, review of medical records, policy and procedure review, interviews with residents,
resident representative, nursing staff, key management staff, the residents' physician and pharmacist, it
was determined the facility failed to ensure the medical records were complete and accurate in accordance
to accepted professional standards and practices for two residents (#3, and #6) out of 9 residents reviewed.
This failure contributed to the lack of communication amongst staff in delivering care and services for
Resident #3 and Resident #6 resulting in the residents not receiving physician ordered medications.
The facility staff did not ensure documentation was completed upon admission for Resident #6 related to
medication reconciliation. The facility failed to enter physician ordered medications resulting in the resident
not receiving prescribed medications from 8/9/24 to 8/16/24. In addition, an antibiotic, deemed to be
ineffective for Resident #6's urinary tract infection (UTI) by a lab result, was administered eight times upon
the readmission of Resident #6. The nursing staff administered two different antibiotic medications on the
same day at the same time for the same infection without consulting the physician.
The facility staff did not ensure Resident #3's physician order for Methadone was obtained or administered
for approximately 77 hours resulting in the resident suffering pain and withdrawal symptoms. The facility
staff failed to complete the medication reconciliation by not clarifying the physicians order for Methadone
timely with the physician. The report did not document if the physician or the date and time the physician
had been contacted to reconcile the discharged medications.
The failure created a situation that resulted in a worsened condition and the likelihood for serious injury and
or death and resulted in the determination of Immediate Jeopardy on 8/9/24. The findings of Immediate
Jeopardy were determined to be removed on 8/29/24 and the severity and scope was reduced to a D.
Findings included:
1. Review of the facility's policy titled, Nursing Documentation Guidelines, not dated, revealed Policy:

9:00 a.m. In addition, Resident #6 was also administered Bactrim DS Oral Tablet 800-160 MG on 08/23/24
at 9:00 a.m. The August MAR showed both the medications of Cipro and Bactrim were administered at their
scheduled times of 9:00 a.m. on 08/23/24 prior to the discontinuation of Cipro.
During an interview on 08/27/24 at 9:50 a.m. Resident #6 stated she was out of it and did not remember
much about her stay at the facility between 08/09/24 and 08/16/24. Resident #6 stated she knew the
medications she took and why. Resident #6 stated that had she not been confused during the initial
admission on [DATE], she would have asked about the facility not administering her regular medications.
Resident #6 stated her family member was very upset about the facility not administering all the
medications as ordered during the initial admission. Resident #6 stated both she and her family member
still did not understand why the facility was not treating the multiple sclerosis (MS) flareup causing her
hands to be paralyzed and did not understand why the facility would not provide her with Prednisone, which
assists her in regaining her functions when MS attacks. Resident #6 stated because of the latest MS
flareup she was not able to feed herself because the MS flareup attacked her hands.
During an interview on 08/27/24 at 10:32 a.m. Resident #6's family member stated the Director of

Nursing (DON) from the facility called him to let him know Resident #6 did not receive her medications from
the initial admission date on 08/09/24 through her hospitalization on 08/16/24. The family member stated
the DON told him the facility did not input Resident #6's medications into the medical record. The family
member stated when he came to visit Resident #6, he spoke with staff who came into Resident #6's room
and voiced his concerns that Resident #6 seemed to be out of it. The family member stated Resident #6
was fuzzy about things and was not able to pay attention, which was not her normal. The family member
stated prior to her initial admission on [DATE] Resident #6 was her normal self, and he noticed the change
in her status during the week after her initial admission to the facility until the time of discharge to the
hospital on [DATE].
During an interview on 08/27/24 at 2:50 p.m. the DON stated Resident #6 went to a scheduled outside
appointment on 08/16/24. The DON stated it was then that the outside provider sent Resident #6 to the ER.
The DON stated she reviewed Resident #6's medical record when Resident #6 was hospitalized . This was
when she recognized Resident #6 was not administered all her physician ordered medications. The DON
stated Resident #6 did not have a DVT (deep vein thrombosis) and the hospital said it was just cellulitis.
The DON stated upon reviewing Resident #6's medications it was discovered they were not reconciled and
were not entered into the medical record. The DON stated that Staff E, Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN),
was the admitting nurse for Resident #6 on Friday, 08/09/24. The DON stated that Staff E, LPN should have
ensured all medications were entered into the electronical medical record as medications are a priority. The
DON stated her understanding was Staff E, LPN started the admission process and was called away and
failed to communicate with the oncoming nurse that all the medications were not added into the electronical
medical record. The DON stated after speaking with Staff E, LPN she was informed that Staff E, LPN left at
7:00 p.m., the end of her scheduled shift, and assumed the oncoming nurse scheduled for the 7:00 p.m. to
7:00 a.m. shift would complete Resident #6's physician ordered medications. The DON stated she then
spoke with Staff F, LPN (the oncoming nurse) for the 7:00 p.m. to 7:00 a.m. shift. The DON discovered Staff
F, LPN thought the admission was completed by the 7:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m. nurse since some entries were
completed in the physician orders of Resident #6's medical record. The DON stated chart scrubs (reviews)
should be completed on Mondays (more than 48 hours after Resident #6's admission). The DON stated
Resident #6's medical record and medication reconciliation was just overlooked. The DON stated the
nurses were continually being educated on the importance of completing medication reconciliation,
documentation of admissions assessments, and who they spoke to in clarifying any medications. The DON
stated that both Staff E, LPN and Staff F, LPN were educated about the admission process after Resident
#6's 08/09/24 incident.
During an interview on 08/28/24 at 10:42 a.m. the DON stated all UA C&S results were reviewed by the
facility's nurse practitioner. The DON reviewed Resident #6's Lab Results Report with a reported date of
08/17/24 and stated that the R (resistance greater than four for Ciprofloxacin) meant that this specific
medication would not help Resident #6's UTI if administered. The DON stated after reviewing the Lab
Results Report she was not sure why the NP did not change the medication when reviewed. The DON
stated the only thing that could have happened was when Resident #6 was hospitalized , I didn't clear the
medication list, and when Resident #6 was re-admitted on [DATE] the medications that were ordered were
just resumed.
During an interview on 08/28/24 at 12:00 p.m. the NP reviewed Resident #6's Lab Results with a report
date of 08/17/24. The NP stated she ordered Ciprofloxacin but once Resident #6's Lab Report was
reviewed and showed Ciprofloxacin was resistant it was not administered. The NP stated Resident #6 did
not get a dose of Ciprofloxacin when re-admitted to the facility on [DATE]. The NP was presented with
Resident #6's August MAR and the NP responded, What is this? The NP reviewed Resident #6's

August MAR, and the NP responded, I don't ever look at that. The NP stated she did not have access to
residents' electronic medical records but had asked about obtaining access to the electronic medical record
system in the past. The NP confirmed that Ciprofloxacin being R resistant to the UTI bacteria would not
have helped clear Resident #6's UTI. The NP reviewed Resident #6's August MAR and stated Bactrim was
prescribed on 08/23/24 and this was S sensitive to the bacteria for Resident #6's UTI. The NP stated when
Resident #6 returned to the facility on [DATE] there should have been another order for labs. The NP looked
in Resident #6's electronical medical record and confirmed no further lab testing was completed upon
re-admission on [DATE]. Further interview with the NP was conducted regarding medication reconciliation
during admission. The NP stated Resident #6 had medications that were not entered into the medical
record when she was initially admitted into the facility on [DATE]. The NP stated the missing medications
were not found until after Resident #6 went out to the hospital. The NP stated that Xarelto was held upon
Resident #6's admission because she believed Resident #6 had some bleeding. The NP stated that any
medications that are considered on hold are not entered into a resident's medical record because the
facility was afraid the nursing staff would disregard the hold and give those medications anyway. The NP
stated that any medications on hold would not show up on a resident's MAR because it was simply not
entered in the medical record as a physician ordered medication. The NP stated that either the NP or the
Medical Director (MD) would revisit all medications on hold for a later time. The NP stated that no
medications were revisited for Resident #6 because she went out to the hospital and when she re-admitted
the medications were reconciled again off the hospital discharge summary. The NP stated that if the
hospital wanted Resident #6 to be on any additional medication the hospital would have made those
changes there and sent the updated medication list back on the discharge summary. The NP stated some
medications placed on hold may never be resumed or are not lifelong medications but stated the MD may
have different views about this.
During an interview on 08/28/24 at 3:11p.m. the Pharmacist in Charge (PC) stated in review of Resident
#6's medications upon admission on [DATE] all the medications put into the electronical medical record
system were house stocked medications except for Metoprolol.
During an interview on 08/28/24 at 4:12 p.m. the Medical Director (MD) (who was the resident's primary
care physician at the facility) stated the process for new admissions would be medications are uploaded
into [Electronical Medical Record System] by the nurse and then facility staff would message me so that I
can look at the new resident's profile within 24 hours. The MD stated he was not aware that Resident #6
was not getting all of her medications. The MD stated he was at the facility and met with Resident #6 on
Monday, 08/12/24. The MD stated that according to his physician notes, he only discussed Metoprolol with
Resident #6 so that must have been the only medication that was documented in her medical record. The
MD stated he was not aware all the medications were not entered into the electronic medical record
system, but stated he did remember questioning that she only had one physician ordered medication and
had found it odd. The MD stated if you review my physician note when I came to the facility and examined
Resident #6 for her re-admission, you will see I listed a lot more medications because the facility had
entered all the medications into the electronic medical record system during that re-admission process. The
MD stated as far as Resident #6 being administered Ciprofloxacin for the UTI, it would not have made a
significant change in the UTI because it was resistant. The MD stated he remembered addressing the
concern as to why Resident #6 was ordered two antibiotics (Bactrim and Ciprofloxacin) when he visited
with Resident #6 and ordered the Ciprofloxacin at that time to be discontinued. The MD stated he was not
presented with the results of Resident #6's Urinalysis with Sensitivities for review. The MD reported this was
only reviewed by the NP.

During an interview on 08/29/24 at 10:16 a.m. the DON stated the nurse does assessments, checks the
papers, reconciles orders, and verifies MD orders, especially if they have a discrepancy. They should call
the acute care facility for clarification if needed. They are supposed to reconcile medications with the
primary care physician (PCP) with every admission. They reconcile the hospital records with the PCP. The
DON stated they review admissions over the weekend. She looks through what is uploaded. She checks to
see if the records are accurate with proper diagnoses based on what is uploaded in the computer. The
DON stated that she does not always get notification when the admit comes, but she would like to be
notified when they arrive. The DON stated that she does not look at the MAR; she looks on the dashboard
to see what was and was not done. The DON stated they (nurses) should be looking for new orders. When
they get a new admit, the next nurse would audit the admission.
During an interview on 08/29/24 at 4:00 p.m. RN/Regional Director of Clinical Services (RDCS) confirmed
the medication errors for Resident #6. She stated a resident missing a cardiac medication is significant.

#3 reported having pain all the time, has taken the opioid, Methadone, for the last 5 years, and has been on
pain management for the past 28 years. The resident described his current pain as achy sharp pains, and
rated the current pain between 7 and 8 out of a scale of 1 to 10, with 10 being the worst. The resident
stated while at the facility the pain has not been below a 6. Resident #3 reported being at the facility for 5
days and has started to go through withdraw symptoms. Resident #3
