F 0698 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Few On 4/2/25 At 1:54pm V2 (Director of Nursing / DON) stated hemodialysis, should have a physician order in resident's record and should be followed. She said when a resident going out for HD (hemodialysis), Dialysis assessment is printed out by nurses and sent with resident together with Face sheet and POS (physician order sheet) and should be documented in progress/resident's record that resident received HD. V2 said dialysis assessment is a form of communication between facility and dialysis center. She said if resident refused or missed dialysis treatment, physician should be informed and documented. V2 said HD is very important to be received by resident as ordered by physician to remove toxins off their body system and to maintain kidney function. She said if resident missed dialysis treatment, it could potentially lead to fluid overload. She said best nursing practice is to document every dialysis treatment day in resident's health record. V2 said it is standard nursing principle, if it's not documented, it wasn't done. She said R5 is on HD 3x per week Monday/Wednesday/Friday. V2 said on 2/28/25 (Friday), R5 was not able to receive HD due to a transportation issue. V2 said she is not sure if R5 received HD on 3/1/25 and on 3/3/25. V2 stated I don't know why R5 missed dialysis. Surveyor reviewed R5's EHR with V2 and V2 stated unable to find documentation or dialysis assessment if R5 received hemodialysis on 2/28/25 (Friday) and 3/3/25 (Monday) as ordered by physician.
