**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
interviews and record reviews, the facility failed to notify attending doctor of an outside consultant
order/recommendations. This deficient practice affects one resident (R18) of three residents reviewed for
physician notification.
Findings Include:
R18 is a [AGE] year old with diagnoses but not limited to: Acute Diastolic Congestive Heart Failure,
Arteriosclerotic Heart Disease of Native Coronary Artery, Multiple Sub segmental Pulmunary Emboli, Acute
Embolism and Thrombosis Deep Vein of Right Lower Extremity.
R18 hospitalized on [DATE] for chest tightness and was diagnosed with bilateral proximal pulmonary artery
emboli with right heart stain, underwent thrombectomy. Returned in the facility on 1/23/23, and was place
on anticoagulant medication.
R18 went to see Cardiologist on 6/1/23 and returned with an order of: May discontinue Eliquis
(Anticoagulant) medication on 7/18/23 and follow up with cardiologist in 6 months.
Nurse notes dated 6/1/23, reads in part: R18 returned from cardiologist. New orders to discontinue Eliquis
on 7/18/23. Follow up appointment needs to be scheduled in 6 months. Orders carried out.
Physician Order Sheet reviewed and on 6/1/23, the order was carried out and entered by V34 (RN). V34 did
not document that Attending MD (V46) was informed and the family of R18 was informed.
V34 no longer an employee of the facility and was not able to reach for an interview.
On 3/8/24 at 9:40 AM, V2 (Director of Nursing) stated that upon return of any residents from outside
appointment, my expectation is for the staff to notify attending physician for any new orders or
recommendations and to enter the orders in the resident's chart. Staff to also document in resident's chart
the attending doctor and family were informed of the changes.
On 3/8/24 at 12:30 PM, V46 (Attending Physician) stated V46 does not recall if V46 was informed by staff
with the medication discontinuation upon returned from cardiologist appointment on 6/1/23, and stated that
usually the facility staff informs V46 for any outside consultant recommendation and V46 would then agree
with the orders.
Notification for Change in Condition policy is the policy provided by V2 (Director of Nursing)

results.
Based on interviews and record reviews, the facility failed to notify the attending physician of one resident's
urine culture and sensitivity results noting the antibiotic the resident was receiving for UTI (urinary tract
infection) was ineffective in treating resident's UTI. This affected one of three residents (R10) reviewed
abnormal labs on the sample list of 49.
Findings include:
On 3/12/24 at 1:07 PM, V51 (attending physician) stated that typically V51 will order macrobid (antibiotic
medication) for UTI (urinary tract infection) until the urine culture and sensitivity results are known. V51
stated that it takes 3-4 days for culture results and V51 does not want to wait to start treatment. V51 stated
that macrobid treats most UTIs. V51 stated that V51 expects the nurse to call him with the urine culture and
sensitivity results once results are known so antibiotic can be changed if the current antibiotic is not
effective in treating UTI. V51 stated that V51 does not recall R10. V51 was informed that R10 had urine for
a urinalysis collected on 9/21/23 with results noting UTI on 9/21/23. V51 was notified of results and started
on macrobid by mouth for 7 days. On 9/24/23 at 9:14 AM R10's urine culture and sensitivity results were
reported to this facility. These results were not reviewed by nurse until 9/25/23 at 12:17 PM. On 9/29/23,
V52 (former infection prevention nurse) notified V51 that R10 completed macrobid and urine culture does
not note macrobid effective in treating R10's pseudomonas aeruginosa UTI. R10 was started on
ciprofloxacin (antibiotic) by mouth x 7 days at that time. V51 stated that the nurse should have notified V51
on 9/24/23 so macrobid could have been discontinued and R10 started on appropriate antibiotic to treat
UTI.
On 3/8/24 at 1:55 PM, V21 IP nurse (Infection Prevention nurse) stated that the IP nurse is expected to
review the resident's antibiotic after the third day as well as review culture and sensitivity results to ensure
resident is receiving an effective antibiotic to treat the infection.
On 3/8/24 at 2:49 PM, V47 RN (Registered nurse) stated that the nurse is expected to call the physician
and relay all laboratory results and obtain new orders if needed. V47 stated that the nurse is expected to
check and review laboratory results daily. V47 stated that the nurse reports to the oncoming nurse
laboratory tests resulted and if orders were obtained and any pending laboratory results. V47 stated that
the nurse marks the laboratory result(s) has been reviewed and the computer system notes name, date,
and time result(s) reviewed. V47 stated that the nurse reviewing the results is responsible for contacting the
physician and relaying results, and documenting in the resident's progress notes that physician notified and
any orders received. R10's urine culture and sensitivity results were reviewed with V47. V47 acknowledged
that V47's name appears at the top of this report with the date and time result was reviewed.
There is no documentation found in R10's medical record noting V47 notified V51 of R10's urine culture and
sensitivity results on 9/25/23 after V47 reviewed results.
On 3/12/24 at 3:00 PM, V1 (Administrator) stated that this facility does not have a policy specific to notifying
physician of laboratory results. V1 stated that this facility follows its notification for change in condition
policy.
R10's medical record, dated 9/21/23, V52 (former Infection Prevention nurse) noted urinalysis with culture
and sensitivity ordered for R10's complaints of dysuria (painful or difficult urination)

Facility was unable to provide any documentation of testing conducted on residents 2/16/24 and 2/23/24.
Facility policy Covid 19 Testing plan and response revised 12/26/23 documents: For facility experiencing an
outbreak or that has identified its first case, the facility must promptly report to the LHD (local health
department). Outbreak testing can be done in two ways: Contact tracing is a more focused approach and
starts on the unit where the positive covid-19 case was identified. Contact tracing is done and all identified
as exposed based on CDC definition of close contact or prolonged exposure are going to be tested three
times (Day one, Day three and Day five). Once initial testing is completed and no positives then testing will
stop. If results show positive recommended to change to broad based testing to continue every 3-7 days
and test everyone until there are no longer positive cases x 14 days. Broad based testing requires testing of
all residents and staff in either the unit or floor or entire facility. Testing is done every 3-7 days and test
everyone until there are no longer positive cases x 14 days.
