administering the medications to the residents. V8 stated a nurse's missing initials on a resident's
medication administration record for a scheduled medication for a resident would indicate that the
medication was not administered. V8 stated it is my expectation that the nurses are to use a code on the
medication administration record if a scheduled dose of medication for a resident is not administered to the
resident. V8 stated the code usually prompts the nurse to do a progress note and notify the doctor that the
resident did not take the medication.
On 11/15/2023 at 11:10am V11(LPN) stated the nurse is responsible for administering the medication to
the residents. V11 stated if there are missing initials on the medication administration record this indicates
the medication was not given by the nurse. V11 stated there are codes the nurse can use on the medication
administration record if a scheduled medication is not administered to the resident.
On 11/15/2023 at 11:36am V13(RN/Registered Nurse) stated the nurses are responsible for administering
medications to the residents. V13 stated if there were missing initials on the medication administration
record for a resident's scheduled dose of medication this would indicate that the medication was not given.
V13 stated there are codes a nurse can use if a scheduled dose of medication has not been administered
to a resident.

Provide safe, appropriate pain management for a resident who requires such services.
Level of Harm - Minimal harm
or potential for actual harm
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
interviews and record review, that facility failed to ensure that one resident (R3) was free from pain, after a
suspected unwitnessed fall. This failure affected one of 7 residents reviewed for pain management.
Residents Affected - Few
Findings include:
R3 is [AGE] year old with diagnosis including but not limited to: History of falling, Intervertebral disc
degeneration, Cervical disc degeneration, Muscle wasting and atrophy, Ataxic gait and Hypertension.
R3 has a BIMS (Brief Interview of Mental Status) score of 3 which indicates severe cognitive impairment.
On 11/13/23 during investigation, V2 (Assistant Director of Nursing) said, R3 was discharged after going
out to the hospital. She (R3) was complaining of pain and the family requested that she (R3) be sent to
hospital for further evaluation.
On 11/15/23 at 10:45 AM, V8 (Director of Nursing) said, I was not aware of R3 stating that she had a fall or
complaining of pain.
Surveyor inquired about the expectations regarding falls and pain management.
On 11/15/23 at 10:45 AM, V8 said, If a resident has a suspected fall, the nurse conducts a post fall
assessment, risk management, take vitals, call the family, call the Doctor and notify me (V8). For a patent
that is non-verbal or cognitively impaired, a non-verbal pain scale is used to assess for facial grimacing,
moaning etc.
Surveyor inquired about expectations regarding pain management.
On 11/15/23 at 10:50 AM, V8 said, If there is prn (as needed) pain medication it should be administered to
the resident complaining of pain. If there is no order for pain medication, an order should be obtained and
administered. If the resident's pain is not addressed, it could lead to anxiety, increased blood pressure, and
continued pain until it's addressed.
Surveyor asked how administered medications are documented.
On 11/15/23 at 10:50 AM, V8 said, Pain medication is documented in the MAR (Medication Administration
Record). If it is a one-time order it would also be documented on the MAR.Pain assessments are also
documented on the MAR and would indicate a checkmark for no pain and a number would indicate the
level of pain.
On 11/15/23 at 2:50 PM, V16 (Certified Nurse Assistant/ CNA) said, I am familiar with R3. I worked with her
the day that she kept saying that she fell and I told the nurse. I did not witness R3's fall, but there was a
change in her (R3). I (V16) have been working at the facility for a long time and I know when there is a
change in a patient. R3 kept ringing her call device and seemed uncomfortable. R3 kept saying that she fell.
When the family came in, they were upset because R3 was still complaining that she had a fall days before
and was complaining of leg pain. The family asked that R3 be
