Based on interview and record review the facility failed to notify a Physician for a resident change in
condition.
Residents Affected - Few
This applies to 1 of 3 residents (R1) reviewed for change in condition in a sample of 3.
The findings include:
On 9/8/24 at 9:50 AM, R1 stated that on last Friday, 8/30/24, from around 6pm - 630 pm, he began vomiting
and having diarrhea until 8:00 AM the next morning.
On 9/7/24 at 10:20 AM, V9 CNA (Certified Nurse's Assistant) stated that last Friday, 8/30/2024 she was
R1's CNA for 1st and 2nd shift. V9 stated that during 2nd shift, R1 had 2 episodes of vomiting where she
and V3 (Nurse) each emptied a wash basin of emesis. V9 stated that she also changed R1's linen 5 to 6
times because R1 had 4-5 episodes of diarrhea during 2nd shift and the last episode was around 10 pm 10:30 PM. V9 stated that she notified V3 of R1's episodes of vomiting and diarrhea and she recorded his
bowel movements but the electronic charting only allows to chart bowel movement once per shift, so she
recorded his bowel movements as large.
On 9/7/24 at 3:17 PM, V3 (Nurse) stated that he did not recall calling R1's doctor about R1 having emesis
and diarrhea on 8/30/24. R1 stated that if a resident has 2 episodes of vomiting and 4-5 episodes of
diarrhea the nurse should assess the resident and call the doctor.
On 9/7/24 at 3:45 PM, V4 (R1's Nurse Practitioner/NP) stated she was not informed on 8/30/24 nor any
other time that R1 had vomiting and diarrhea. V4 stated that if a resident had 2 episodes of vomiting and
4-5 episodes of diarrhea, she would order labs, including C-diff and order Imodium (anti-diarrhea
medication) for the resident.
On 9/8/24 at 1:40 PM, V6 (R1's Physician) stated that he had no knowledge of R1 having diarrhea or
vomiting on Friday 8/30/2024.
On 9/7/24 at 4:12 PM, V2 DON (Director of Nursing) stated that she has no knowledge that R1 had
diarrhea and vomiting on 8/30/24. V2 stated that if a resident has episodes of vomiting and four to five
episodes of diarrhea her expectations are for the nurse to check the resident's vitals and call the doctor and
if it is not resolved the resident should be transferred to the emergency room for evaluation.
On 9/7/24 at 4:30 PM, V1 (Administrator) stated that he has no knowledge that R1 had episodes of
