Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm
Based on observation, interview and record review, the facility failed to provide treatment and care for a resident with seizures for one (R14) of four residents reviewed for seizures in a sample of 12.
Residents Affected - Few
Findings include: On 06/06/23 at 10:06 AM during observation, R14 was observed sitting on a Geri-chair in the dining room when she started presenting with jerking body movements, eyelids fluttering, and eyes rolling back. V6 (Certified Nursing Assistant) noticed R14, checked her, and informed V3 (Licensed Practical Nurse). V3 checked R14 and stayed with her. R14's jerking movements stopped after approximately 15 seconds, but eyelids and eyes remained the same. After approximately another 10 seconds, R14's eyelids and eyes started to relax. V3 was observed taking R14 to her room. On 06/07/23 at 10:48 AM, V3 said she brought R14 to room to decrease stimuli and make her comfortable. V3 stated she didn't think that when R14 had the jerking movements and eyes rolling backwards she was having a seizure. V3 said she did not check R14's vital signs or call the doctor. On 06/07/23 at 10:52 AM, V2 (Director of Nursing) stated that R14 has diagnosis of seizure disorder and she might've been having seizures at that time. V2 added that R14 is on seizure medication but cannot locate any laboratory results for R14 to check therapeutic levels. On 06/08/2023 at 1:12PM, V2 said if a resident had a seizure, she expects the nurses to assess the resident including the vital signs, provide care as needed, and then notify the doctor and/or family. On 06/07/23 at 11:00 AM, V6 said he saw R14 having jerking body movements, so he checked on R14 and informed V3. R14's order summary report dated 6/7/23 indicated admission date of 10/23/2019, diagnoses including other seizures and other sequelae of cerebral infarction, and order for Levetiracetam 250 milligrams (mg) by mouth in the morning and 500mg by mouth in the evening with start date of 7/12/2022. Care plan revised 7/22/2022 indicated R14 is at risk for seizures, Levetiracetam with interventions including monitor lab values for therapeutic levels of anticonvulsant medications and report to MD (Doctor of Medicine). Review of physician orders from 7/12/2022 to 06/06/2023 did not show any current or previous laboratory order to check therapeutic levels of Levetiracetam. Facility unable to provide policy on change in condition.
