Residents Affected - Few On 01/07/25 at 11:46 AM, R52 was in the dining room with a urinary catheter bag partially filled with urine. The urinary catheter bag was hanging from R52's wheelchair without a privacy covering. On 01/08/25 at 12:15 PM, R52 was in the dining room with her urinary catheter bag wrapped with a blue absorbent pad and hanging from her wheelchair. On 01/08/25 at 12:30 PM, R52 stated her urinary catheter bag had not previously been covered and staff told her today the bag needed to be covered for privacy reasons. On 1/9/25 at 12:45 PM, V2 (Director of Nursing/DON) stated the facility did not have a policy regarding covering a catheter bag. Based on observation, interview, and record review the facility failed to ensure a resident's privacy was maintained (R59) and failed to cover a resident's indwelling urinary catheter bag with a privacy covering (R52) for two of 18 residents reviewed for privacy and dignity in a sample of 27.

On 1/9/25 at 1:30 PM, V9 (Registered Nurse/RN) stated V7 (Licensed Practical Nurse/LPN) gives the nurses a typed list of residents' names and new medication orders that were entered into the EMR by V6 (Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner).

V9 stated V6 and V7 conducted rounds on residents on 1/8/25 although V7 was not working on 1/9/25, therefore a list had not yet been provided to the nurses. On 1/10/24 at 9:30 AM, V7 (Licensed Practical Nurse/LPN) stated that V7 does resident rounds with V6 (Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner). V6 completes her own documentation and enters orders into the residents' electronic medical record (EMR). V6's orders will remain in a pending status until V7 confirms the order in the EMR. V7 reviewed R26, R37, R66, R72, R80, R85 MARs and stated the changes in medications were not administered as ordered. V7 stated I had an appointment yesterday and didn't get the orders (V6's orders from 1/8/25) confirmed. The nurses should know how to do that (confirm pending orders to activate the order) but I do it, so they (nurses) didn't know. V7 stated that between 1:30 PM to 3:30 PM on 12/30/24, V6 conducted resident rounds and entered orders into the residents' EMR. V7 stated she verified and completed the pending orders by 1/1/25, therefore the new medications ordered were not activated for the nurses to administer on 12/30/24 or 12/31/24.
