stated R22 has a sitter with him, the doors are alarmed, and R22 won't leave the facility. V27 stated R22
has a tracker on his ankle, and they can track him if he would leave. V27 stated anyone who sees R22
should redirect him back to his area. V27 stated if R22 starts walking the sitter follows him but once he
takes his medications, he is chill.
On 1/29/25 at 11:36 AM, V12 (Maintenance Director) stated he was aware R22 had eloped on 1/29/25 and
had already checked all the doors to make sure they were working correctly, and they were. V12 stated he
makes daily rounds and hadn't had any door locks/alarms not working. At 11:41 AM on this same date, this
surveyor walked with V12 to the exit door located near the beauty shop. V12 opened the door, and it
alarmed as it should. This surveyor walked with V12 to see if the alarm could be heard on the halls the
residents reside on and/or near the nurse's station. The alarm was no longer able to be heard after turning
the corner and prior to reaching the nurse's station and/or resident room areas on the south hall. This
surveyor and V12 walked toward the north hall and the alarm sound was no longer able to be heard near
the entrance door of the dining room which is prior to the north hall nurse's station and resident room
areas. V12 also confirmed he could not hear the alarms. When asked if they couldn't hear the alarms how
would staff know someone had exited the facility, V12 stated, he knows they have a 1:1 staff sitting with

especially if they are short staffed.
On 1/29/25 at 9:28 PM, V24 (CNA) stated R22 doesn't have a 1:1 staff with him on night shift. V24 stated
they watch him the best they can. V24 stated it is easy to watch him through the night it's in the morning
when they are trying to get people up that is it harder. V24 stated R22 is very smart and has the concept of
holding the door until it opens. V24 stated he wears the safety vest so people can see him if he gets out.
V24 stated she was working when R22 eloped on 1/29/25 but he wasn't one of her assignments. V24
stated none of the alarms sounded. When asked if she could hear the alarms V24 stated, Not very well.
V24 stated R22 is supposed to always have the safety vest on.

accounted for. Facility interviewed all staff, and no one answered an alarm and shut it off. Facility has
educated all staff on duty and will educate all staff who haven't previously been educated for the next three
days about monitoring door closure behind them when they come in the facility or when they leave the
facility to make sure door closes securely and properly. Facility placed (R22's initials) on 1:1 supervision
and will continue until re-evaluate by the IDT (Interdisciplinary Team) to decide if is safe to remove the
supervision. Facility contacted the sister and will send referrals to all TBI (Traumatic Brain Injury) facilities
that can be located in the state of Illinois. Facility has ordered additional door exit alarms for the three doors
that are the furthest from the nurse's station as added precaution. Facility has ordered Stop Sign door
guards to be applied at each exit door with the exception of the front lobby door where visitors and staff
enter and exit many times a day. Staff will be educated to not remove the door guards. 4. How will you
monitor the corrective action (s) to ensure the deficient practice will not recur .Admin (administrator), DON,
and/or designees will do random observations of at least one staff member entering and exiting the facility
a minimum of 5 times per week for 4 weeks. Admin, DON, and/or designees will do random observations of
Stop Sign door guards properly applied to each exit door a minimum of 5 times per week for 4 weeks.
Results of the observations will be discussed in the Quarterly QA (Quality Assurance) Meeting times 2 with
educational needs discussed as need by the Facility Administrator, DON, and or designee. Completion

After investigation, IDT concluded that resident (R22) followed an employee out of a door. During
investigation all door alarms were checked and functioning properly on 1/29/25. In addition, door alarms are
checked daily by maintenance or designee. IDT identified QAPI (Quality Assurance and Performance
Improvement) and implemented staff in-servicing immediately.
On 1/30/25 at 12:02 PM, V28 (Family Member) stated the facility hadn't communicated with her at all
recently. When asked how long it had been since the facility had called her with an update, V28 stated it
had been a couple of months since she heard anything from them. V28 stated she was R22's surrogate
mom and she was the only one they would contact regarding R22's condition and care. V28 stated she was
told awhile back (date unknown) R22 had attempted to escape the facility. V28 stated that is the only
elopement she was made aware of. V28 stated she hadn't been contacted by the facility at all the past few
days. V28 stated she is concerned with the care R22 is getting because she is the one who always looks
after him and she hadn't been getting any communication from the facility.
On 1/30/25 at 1:15 PM, V1 (Administrator) stated they have a tracking tag on R22 so if he exits the facility,
they call her or the Director of Nursing and they track where R22 is located. V1 stated they don't have a
wander guard system because it would be expensive to implement in the building. V1 stated V31 (Social
Services Director) was the staff member who contacted V28 (Family Member) after R22's elopement on
1/29/25.
On 1/30/25 at 2:00 PM, V31 (Social Services Director) stated R22 eloped once while she was at the facility.
V31 stated he made it to the facility parking lot. V31 stated he just gets out and the facility staff get him and
bring him back in. V31 stated he doesn't make it very far. When asked if she called V28 (Family Member) to
discuss possible placement in a TBI (Traumatic Brain Injury) facility after he eloped on 1/29/25, V31 stated
she had not spoken with her and hadn't sent out any referrals. V31 stated she tries to call everyone's power
of attorneys who are on her advocate list and V28 had never returned her calls. V31 stated, she (V28) is
[NAME] (missing in action). V31 stated she had worked at the facility since 12/2023 and had never had
contact with V28. V31 stated she had left a number for V28 to return calls and she had never called her

Murphysboro Road and Tower Road.
On 1/30/25 at 1:32 PM, V29 (Medical Records/CNA) stated she had been working when R22 had eloped in
the past. V29 stated R22 wanders and has a staff member who sits with him. V29 stated they try to have

toward Old Murphysboro Road. V32 stated one time (date unknown) he did make it to the gym located
close to the intersection of Old Murphysboro Road and New Route 13 (4 lane highway). V32 stated she
was busy providing care to another resident that day and she thought V33 (CNA Supervisor) was the one
who picked R22 up. V32 stated R22 didn't have a staff member sitting with him that day. V32 stated the front
door was alarming and they were able to hear it. V32 stated R22 wasn't injured or upset when he returned
to the facility. V32 stated she had heard R22 had gotten into the houses across the street from the facility
but that was before she started working at the facility in 2023.

V33 stated R22 usually elopes at shift change when they are getting the residents up in the morning. V33
stated R22 made it to the gym located at the corner of Old Murphysboro Road and New Route 13. V33
stated it occurred around 7:00 AM. V33 was unable to recall the exact date but stated it was in October or
November of 2024. V33 stated on that day, she saw R22 make a lap around the unit and when R22 starts
wandering, they redirect him back to his room. V33 stated she happened to hear the alarm go off and she
knew she needed to look for him. V33 stated she got in her car, and she went one way and other staff went
another way. V33 stated she found him wandering around the gym parking lot (located at the intersection of
Old Murphysboro Road and New Route 13), with a cup in his hand. V33 stated she got R22 in the car and
took him back to the facility. V33 stated another time R22 left, he made it onto Old Murphysboro Road and
was found near the funeral home (located 2 miles from the facility). V33 stated R22 had the reflective vest
on and that happened a long time ago (unable to provide a date). V33 stated if it's quiet enough they can
hear the alarms on the doors.

believed it was V33 (CNA Supervisor) who located him that time. V43 was not able to remember the date it
occurred but believed it was 2-3 months ago. V43 stated he knew R22 had eloped two other times and was
trying to get into someone's residence and someone's car but that was probably two years ago. V43 wasn't
sure if R22 had a 1:1 present with those elopements. V43 stated it is very hard to do 1:1 with him if no one
is assigned to him. V43 stated it is very hard to keep track of him.
On 2/6/25 at 10:22 AM, V51 (CNA) stated she was working when R22 eloped once. V51 stated she
believed it was in December of 2024 but couldn't remember the exact date. V51 stated staff heard the alarm
on the laundry room door, and all went to see why it was alarming. V51 stated R22 was found in a
neighbor's yard by V45 (RN). V51 stated R22 didn't have staff with him and when they located him, he was
trying to wrap himself in a blanket. V51 stated she didn't think he was gone long because the neighbors
called the facility and believed it happened around 8:00 AM.
On 2/6/25 at 9:40 AM, V50 (CNA) stated she was working when R22 eloped in the past. V50 stated she
couldn't remember the exact date, but she knows the elopements occurred in 2024. V50 stated it happened
twice. V50 stated one of the times (date unknown) she was in or near the dining room when a resident told
her the door alarm was sounding on R22's unit. V50 stated as she went around the corner onto the unit,
she could hear the alarm and see the door was cracked. V50 stated she spotted R22 across the main busy
street, walking on the sidewalk, towards the stop sign located at the intersection of Tower Road and Old
Murphysboro Road. V50 stated R22 was alone with no staff with him. V50 stated she yelled his name, and
he kept walking. V50 stated she caught up to him close to the intersection, turned him around, brought him
back to the facility, and notified nursing. V50 stated the other time she walked to the nurse's station on the
north hall and heard the door alarm sounding. V50 stated she quickly walked to the door and when she
looked out, she saw R22 outside without staff, walking toward the stop sign. V50 stated she caught up to
him close to the intersection. V50 stated she didn't remember the date of these occurrences, but they were
both in 2024.
On 1/30/25 at 3:51 PM, V44 (Former Director of Nurses) stated she worked at the facility from 2/24/23 to
1/10/25. V44 stated R22 did leave the facility when she was working and he either went out the front door or
out the door at the end of his hall and staff were with him. V44 stated when R22 doesn't have a sitter
everyone keeps an eye on him. V44 stated they try to keep him away from the beauty shop hall since that

R22's Care Plan/Behavior Tracking Record was reviewed from 1/2024 to 2/3/2025 and documents under
Problem Statement, (R22) will wander putting his health and safety at risk. The Goal is documented as,
(R22) will be easily redirected in the next review. With Interventions documented as, 1. Point in the direction
you would like (R22) to go. 2. Get (R22) snacks/drink. 3. Redirect. 4. Refer to nursing as needed. These
same records document R22 wandered 9 days in 1/2024, 6 days in 2/2024, 28 days in 3/2024, 16 days in
4/2024, 22 days in 5/2024, 28 days in 6/2024, 23 days in 7/2024, 30 days in 8/2024, 22 days in 9/2024, 17

R22 wandered has multiple episodes of wandering documented. The facility was unable to provide any
behavior tracking specific to elopements.
On 01/29/25 at 12:32 PM, V8 (MDS Coordinator) stated she was responsible for updating and
implementing interventions on resident care plans. V8 stated R22 didn't have any new interventions
implemented to prevent elopements in the year 2024. V8 stated she didn't implement any new interventions
because R22 was never out of eyesight of staff. V8 stated she just implemented new interventions when
she was directed to by the Administrator and Director of Nursing. When asked what their usual routine was
if someone had a new event occur, V8 stated they discuss it in meetings and implement an intervention to
try to decrease risk. When asked why they didn't do that each time R22 eloped, V8 stated, I couldn't tell
you. V8 stated she didn't remember any details about R22's elopements and she didn't believe any notes
were taken when they met. This surveyor reviewed the care plan interventions documented on R22's
current care plan and asked V8 if R22 had eloped in December 2024 and if not why was there a new
intervention of the safety vest documented on 12/11/2024. V8 stated she would have to check on it.
On 1/29/25 at 1:48 PM, V8 (MDS Coordinator) stated the intervention of the vest was implemented before
12/11/24 it just wasn't documented on R22's care plan. V8 stated it was found when the previous regional
nurse was doing a review of R22's record and she added it to the care plan. V8 stated she wasn't sure
when they implemented the safety vest intervention.
On 2/3/25 at 2:07 PM, V1 (Administrator) stated she was not able to locate any other documentation on
R22's elopements for the year 2024. V1 stated the IDT (Interdisciplinary Team) had not met yet to
determine if R22 was safe to not have a 1:1, 24 hours a day. V1 stated R22 was currently on 1:1, 24 hours
a day. When asked why he wasn't on it on the night when I called and spoke with staff V1 stated, Ok. When
did you call. This surveyor responded with 1/29/25 and asked again if he had 1:1, 24 hours a day. V1 stated,
We are working on it. When asked what that meant, V1 stated, We are working to schedule 1:1, 24 hours a
day. When asked does he currently have 1:1 supervision 24 hours a day, V1 stated, I will have to check with
the person who does scheduling. This surveyor reviewed with V1 that V31 (Social Services Director) had
stated she did not talk with V28 (Family Member) after the elopement on 1/29/25 and had not spoken with
her since she started working at the facility. V1 stated they reached out to V28 and V28 didn't answer so
they kept calling until they got a hold of her. V1 stated they spoke with V28 on 2/3/25. When asked if she
could remember what happened each time R22's progress notes document an elopement, V1 stated
possibly after reviewing everything. This surveyor reviewed with V1, the interviews documenting R22 was
found at the gym located 0.8 miles from the facility and V1 stated she was not aware of that. This surveyor
asked V1 if they should notify the family and physician with each elopement and V1 stated, I would have to
check. When asked if she could say

why there were no new interventions implemented after each elopement for the year 2024, V1 stated, I
cannot. When asked if there should have been new interventions implemented, V1 stated, I am not sure. I
will need to check.
On 2/4/25 at 8:46 AM, V1 (Administrator) stated she couldn't remember the exact date the 1:1 staff
supervision on day shift started for R22, but she believed it was in July or August of 2023. V1 stated they
didn't implement that intervention to prevent elopements but had implemented it to keep R22 from taking
other residents' food out of their rooms and they didn't set it up to have to be consistent with the time
frames that R22 had 1:1 staff but they tried to have them during meal hours.
On 01/30/25 at 2:19 PM, V34 (Physician) stated he was not notified that R22 had eloped and did not feel
that he was safe in the community alone. V34 stated he was aware R22 had a history of wandering and
stealing food but does not recall any communication regarding him leaving the facility.

region stage 4, infection, and inflammatory reaction due to internal left hip prothesis.
R47's Minimum Data Set (MDS) dated [DATE] documented a Brief Interview for Mental Status (BIMS) score
of 5, which indicates severely impaired cognition. Section GG of the MDS documented R47 is dependent
with toileting and turning and repositioning. Section H documented indwelling catheter.
R47's Care Plan documents a focus area of R47 is at risk for UTI (Urinary Tract Infection) r/t (related to) use
of (Urinary) Catheter (Indwelling Catheter) with date initiated of 01/29/25.
On 01/29/25 at 3:38PM, V20 (Licensed Practical Nurse/LPN) went into R47's room to perform catheter
care. V20 cleansed her hands and put on gloves and gown. V20 stated that she had a basin filled with
warm soapy water and wash cloths that she was going use to perform catheter care. V20 cleaned the area
to right side and then flipped her washcloth and cleaned the area to the left side of R47's groin. V20 placed
that washcloth in clear trash bag. V20 got a new soapy washcloth and cleansed the area to the top of R47's
groin and placed that washcloth in the clear trash bag. V20 got another soapy washcloth and cleaned R47's
penis then placed that washcloth in the clear trash bag. V20 grabbed another soapy washcloth and started
at the tip of the penis and washed R47's catheter outwards toward the tubing. At this time, V20 then stated
that she was done with catheter care. V20 began to clean everything up and put items away.
On 01/29/25 at 3:45PM, V20 was asked by this surveyor if she was done with catheter care, and she stated
yes. V20 was asked if she should have rinsed off the groin and catheter area with clean water after using
soapy water to cleanse the groin and catheter area. V20 stated that she should have cleansed the area with
plain water after she used soapy water, and she also should have patted the area dry since it was wet.

Ensure that feeding tubes are not used unless there is a medical reason and the resident agrees; and
provide appropriate care for a resident with a feeding tube.
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
record review, observation, and interview, the facility failed to follow facility policy and procedure by failing to
check the placement of a gastrostomy tube prior to administering medication and flusing with water and
feeding for 1 of 1 resident (R47) reviewed for gastrostomy tube use in the sample of 42.
Findings include:
R47's admission Record printed on 01/30/25 documents an admission date of 12/03/24 with diagnoses that
included dysphagia, muscle weakness, gastrostomy status and hyponatremia.
R47's Minimum Data Set (MDS) dated [DATE] documents a Brief Interview for Mental Status (BIMS) score

administered 1 carton of Nutren 2.0 and then another flush of 165ml of water. V20 did not check placement
of R47's g-tube prior to flush and feeding.
On 01/30/25 at 1:16PM, V10 (Registered Nurse/RN) said that placement to g-tubes are checked prior to
administering a flush, feedings, or medications. V10 said that she checks placement to a g-tube by
aspirating back the contents in the g-tube. V10 said that is when she aspirates back the stomach contents,
if there is more than 100ml of content in the syringe she will hold the feeding, flush, or medication and

purpose of this procedure is to ensure proper placement of feeding tube to prevent aspiration during
feedings. The policy further documents To confirm placement of tube .#3. Observe for changes in residual
volume: a. a sharp increase in residual volume may indicate that a small bowel tube has moved into the
stomach; b. little to no residual volume may suggest that the tube has migrated from the stomach to the
esophagus. #4. If the above suggests improper tube positioning, do not administer feeding or medications.
Notify the Charge Nurse or Physician.

Ensure that residents are free from significant medication errors.
Level of Harm - Immediate
jeopardy to resident health or
safety
Based on interview and record review, the facility failed to ensure physician's orders were followed, for 1 of
5 residents (R55) reviewed for significant medication errors in the sample of 30. This failure resulted in R55
missing three doses of long- acting insulin from 1/17/25 to 1/19/25, causing R55's blood sugars to be
extremely elevated. This has the potential to lead to ketoacidosis which could result in coma and possible
death.
Residents Affected - Few
This failure resulted in an Immediate Jeopardy.
An Immediate Jeopardy was identified to have begun on 01/17/25 at approximately 9:00 PM when the
facility was unable to provide R55's scheduled long-acting insulin and did not notify the physician. The
facility also failed to administer R55's long-acting insulin as ordered on 01/18/25 and 01/19/25.
V1 (Administrator) and V2 (Director of Nursing), were notified of the Immediate Jeopardy on 02/04/25 at
3:13 PM. The surveyor confirmed by observation, interview, and record review that the Immediate Jeopardy
was removed, and the deficient practice corrected on 02/04/25, but the noncompliance remains at Level
Two due to additional time needed to evaluate implementation and effectiveness of training.
Findings include:
R55's admission record documents an admission date of 01/17/25 and list the following diagnoses in part;
vascular dementia, mild with psychotic disturbances and type 2 diabetes mellitus.
R55's MDS (Minimum Data Set) dated 01/24/25, documents a BIMS (Brief Interview for Mental Status) of
11, indicating that R55 is moderately cognitively impaired. Section I-active diagnoses documents an active
diagnosis of diabetes mellitus.
R55's care plan documents an initiation date of 01/28/25 for a focus area that states R55 is at risk for
complications r/t (related to) dm (diabetes mellitus).
R55's Physician's Order Sheet (POS) documents an order with an order date and a start date of 01/17/25
for Toujeo Solostar Subcutaneous Solution pen-injector 300 Units/ML, (Insulin Glargine) (long-acting
insulin), Inject 70 units at bedtime for diabetes mellitus.
R55's Physician's Order Sheet (POS) documents an order with a start date of 01/18/25 for Blood glucose
per fingerstick as needed for signs/symptoms of hyperglycemia/hypoglycemia.
On 01/27/25 at 10:03am, V36 (Family member) stated that they continued to ask the nurse about R55's
meds the first couple of days of being in the facility because she wasn't getting all of them or her insulin,
they continued to be told they were still working on it. V36 stated staff reported they were still working on
her admission through Sunday. V36 stated R55 was not getting her blood sugar checked at meals either.
V36 stated that R55 had her blood sugar checked four times a day at the hospital and she had continuous
monitoring at home.
On 01/29/25 at 12:01pm, V37 (Family member) stated R55 was admitted on Friday 01/17/25 in the evening,
and it was a struggle all weekend getting her medications. V37 said that they asked the nurses several
times from Friday to approximately Sunday or Monday for R55's medications and insulin's and

sugar of 411 and did not contact the physician.
On 01/30/25 at 09:58am, V41 (Pharmacy medical records) reviewed medication orders for R55. V41 stated
a new order was received from the facility for long-acting insulin on 1/17/25. V41 stated an emergency order
was called to the backup pharmacy (a local pharmacy) on 1/17/25. V41 stated the order was never picked
up by facility. V41 stated on 1/19/25, a nurse from the facility called to ask about it and the pharmacy
informed them it was to be delivered later that evening or there was an emergency order called in to the
backup pharmacy and they stated they will wait for the delivery. V41 confirmed the long-acting insulin was

pharmacy for a code to open the bin the medication was in.
On 02/03/25 at 03:43pm, V2 (DON) stated that discharge orders from residents admitted from the hospital
are to be put into the computer system as soon as possible, copied and then faxed to the pharmacy. V2
stated if they are not faxed by 8pm, they will not be received that day. V2 stated some medications,
including insulin's are kept in the emergency kit in the medication room. V2 stated if they are not in there,
they should contact the pharmacy and see if they can bring them on an emergency run or from the backup
pharmacy (local pharmacy). V2 stated if it comes from the backup pharmacy, she believes they deliver it. V2
stated she was not aware that R55 missed multiple doses of long-acting insulin before she reviewed her
admission packet on 1/20/25 or 1/21/25. V2 stated at that time she contacted V34 (Physician) to see if he
wanted R55 to have sliding scale insulin. V2 stated that her process for new admission orders is that two
nurses independently review the orders and then she will review the admission packet also. V2 stated she
would have expected V34 be contacted with any missed doses of insulin or blood sugars above 300.
On 02/03/25 at 12:03pm, V42 (RN) stated the process for admitting new residents with medications, is that
the admitting nurse puts the orders in, and if they are not finished by the next shift, the oncoming nurse
should finish them. V42 stated if she put an order in for an as needed (PRN) blood glucose fingerstick for
R55, it was because it was either on her discharge sheet or ordered by the

doctor. V42 stated that she did not notify the doctor of a blood sugar of 308 for R55 because they are not
required to. V42 stated if they need medications, they call the pharmacy, if they cannot get them then they
should notify the doctor. V42 stated on 01/19/25 when she was taking care of R55, her meds were still not
available in the facility and she did not notify the physician.
On 02/03/25 at 12:19pm, V4 (License Practical Nurse/LPN) stated when a new admit comes, they get
discharge orders and the nurse that receives the resident is to put them in. V4 stated they are then checked
by a second nurse and then by V2 (DON). V4 stated this is a new process that was put in place by V2 since
she started a few weeks ago. V4 stated the process for obtaining medications is to call the pharmacy and
order the medication, see if it is in the emergency supply and then the backup pharmacy. V4 stated she was
not sure who's responsibility it was to get meds from the backup pharmacy, but she has seen them come
via door dash from a local pharmacy before. V4 stated residents should not miss a dose of insulin and if
that were to happen, the doctor should be notified. V2 stated she did R55's admission but could not recall
what the situation was with R55's medications when she was admitted .
On 01/30/25 at 02:19pm, V34 (Physician) stated on 01/17/25 he was notified late at night about R55 having
a drug allergy and order clarification for a medication. V34 stated he was not contacted again until 1/21/25.
V34 reviewed his communication with the facility and stated he had not been contacted at all about R55's
insulin not being available or blood sugar until 1/21/25. V34 stated he was contacted on 01/21/25 by V2
(Director of Nursing/DON) about orders for sliding scale insulin for R55. V34 stated yes and he directed
them to call his office if they were not familiar with his standard sliding scale. V34 stated he would expect to
be contacted about any resident, not just a new resident, with a blood sugar of 308 and 411, especially the
411. V34 stated his expectation would also be that they recheck R55's blood sugar after numbers like that.
V34 could not say for sure what would have happened or the level of harm that could have happened
because everyone responds differently, but that he had not been notified of any of it. V34 stated his
expectation would be for R55 to not miss any doses of insulin, especially if there was a script waiting at a
pharmacy in town the same day. V34 stated his expectation would be to be notified in those instances.
On 02/03/25 at 02:45pm, V26 (LPN) stated she was working on 01/17/25. V26 stated she did not recall the
situation with R55 and not receiving insulin. After a review of R55's medication administration record
(MAR), V26 verified she did not administer R55's insulin and she recalled being told in report from the day
shift nurse that the medication was on its way. V26 stated she could not recall if she notified the doctor or
not but should have.
On 02/10/25 at 07:51am, V50 (Pharmacy medical records) stated it is the responsibility of the pharmacy
couriers to pick up medications filled at the backup pharmacy. V50 stated she had no documentation as to
why R55's insulin was not picked up from the backup pharmacy or that anyone from the facility contacted
them about R55 until 01/19/25. V50 stated the facility did not attempt to obtain the medication from the
Emergency kit for R55. V50 stated when the facility calls in the order to the pharmacy, if it is the emergency
kit (E-kit), the pharmacy technician would advise them to pull from E-kit if it were available there. V50 stated
the pharmacy technician would then walk them through the process and grant them access to the
medication. V50 stated judging by the fact that an order was sent to the backup pharmacy immediately, the
medication may not have been available in the E-kit. V50 confirmed there was not R55's type of insulin
available in the facility emergency kit from 01/17/25-01/20/25. V50 confirmed there was no correspondence
between the facility and the pharmacy from 01/17/25 and 01/19/25 regarding R55's insulin.

Findings include:
1. On 01/27/25 at 9:30 AM, a container of sugar was observed on the counter between the kitchen and
dining room. The container of sugar was sitting by the coffee and tea on the dining service counter within
residents' reach. There was a small plastic portion cup in the sugar container that was utilized by both staff
and residents to get sugar for the drinks.
On 01/27/25 at 11:30 AM, R12 was observed getting sugar from the container with the small plastic portion
cup.
On 01/27/25 at 11:53 AM, V21 (Certified Nurse Aide/CNA) used the portion cup in the sugar container to

portion cup back into the sugar container.
On 01/29/25 at 10:15 AM, during Resident Council meeting, residents were asked if the container of sugar
that sits on the counter by the coffee canister is what they use to sweeten their beverages, and R2, R6,
R12, R37, R46, and R45, all confirmed it was. All agreed that they use the small plastic portion cup to get
the sugar out, then it is placed back in the container.

station. R51 used the scoop to get ice for her cup. R51 grabbed the handle of the scoop but then shifted it
in her hand where she was touching the lower portion, or body of the scoop. After touching her wheelchair
handles, her pants, her cup and the beverage cart handle, R51 placed the scoop back in the cooler full of
ice.
On 01/27/25 at 3:07 PM, on the south hall, R46 used the scoop placed on the side of the cooler to get ice
for his cup.
On 01/27/25 at 3:20 PM, on the south hall, V7 (CNA) used the scoop to place ice in a cup and delivered it
to R16.
On 01/27/25 at 3:40 PM, on the south hall, V11 (Registered Nurse/RN) stated the cooler of ice by the
nurse's station is the ice that is used for the drinks for the residents.
On 01/29/25 at 2:44 PM, R51 used the scoop placed on the side of the cooler to get ice for her cup. R51
again grabbed the handle of the scoop, but then shifted it in her hand, touching the body of the scoop. After
touching her cigarette, the door leading to the inside, her wheelchair handles, her pants, her cup, and the
cooler lid, R51 placed the scoop back in the bin full of ice.

On 01/27/25 at 10:30 AM, on the north hall, V21 (CNA) used the scoop to get ice for R11.
On 01/29/25 at 10:15 AM during Resident Council meeting, residents were asked if the scoops and ice
coolers on the halls are what they use to obtain ice for their drinks, and R2, R12, R6, R37, R45, and R46 all
confirmed it was. All agreed the residents can get the ice themselves or the staff will get ice for those
residents that cannot or do not come out of their room.
On 01/30/25 at 3:18 PM, V14 (Dietary Director) stated the facility does not have sugar packets because
they are too expensive, but they should not have a portion cup in the sugar container, especially that
everyone touches and puts back into the container. V14 stated she will have to find a new method to have
sugar for distribution. V14 stated the ice coolers on the north and south halls should be used by staff only in
a sanitary manner. The lower portion (body) of the scoop should not be touched, and if the scoop touched
any item that was not a clean surface it should be washed and sanitized before putting it back in the ice.
The Long-Term Care facility application for Medicare and Medicaid dated 01/27/25 documents 54 residents
residing at the facility.
