F 0644 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Few Coordinate assessments with the pre-admission screening and resident review program; and referring for services as needed. Based on medical record review, review of the Pre-admission Screening and Resident Review (PASRR screening to determine if specialized services are needed) and staff interview, the facility failed ensure PASRR screenings were accurately completed. This affected one (#19) of three residents reviewed for PASRR screenings. The facility census was 58. Findings include: Review of the medical record for Resident #19 revealed an admission date of 03/13/25. Diagnoses included unspecified psychosis not due to a substance or known physiological condition, unspecified dementia, unspecified hearing loss, and muscle weakness. Review of the Minimum Data Set (MDS) assessment, dated 03/31/25, revealed Resident #19 had a Brief Interview Mental Status (BIMS) score of 15, indicating intact cognition. The resident was dependent upon staff for activities of daily living (ADLs). Review of the PASRR, completed on 03/11/25, revealed Resident #19's diagnosis of unspecified psychosis not due to a substance or known physiological condition was not documented on the screening. Interview with Social Services Director (SSD) #272 verified Resident #19's PASRR did not accurately reflect the resident's mental health diagnosis and further confirmed a diagnosis of unspecified psychosis not due to a substance or know physiological condition should have been included on the PASRR screening.

F 0761 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Some Ensure drugs and biologicals used in the facility are labeled in accordance with currently accepted professional principles; and all drugs and biologicals must be stored in locked compartments, separately locked, compartments for controlled drugs. **NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** 2. Observation on 05/21/25 at 12:49 P.M. of the 200-hall main medication room refrigerator, with the Director of Nursing (DON), revealed a plastic container which held eight vials of insulin. There were two vials of Novolog N 100 units per 10 milliliters (U/ml) with expiration dates of 12/31/24 and 01/31/25, a vial of Novolog R 100 U/10 ml with an expiration date of 03/31/25, two vials of Novolog 70/30 with an expiration date of 01/31/25 and one vial of Novolin R 100 U/10 ml with an expiration date of 03/31/25. Interview on 05/21/25 at 1:05 P.M. with the DON revealed the vials of insulin in the mail medication room refrigerator were used by all three halls of the facility for emergency situations, such as residents out of insulin or with new admissions. The DON verified the eight vials of insulin in the main medication room refrigerator were expired. Review of the facility policy titled, Medication Storage in the Facility, dated November 2018, revealed medications were stored safely, securely and properly, following manufactures recommendations or those of the supplier. Further review revealed outdated, contaminated, or deteriorated medications and those in containers that were cracked, soiled or without secure closures were immediately removed from inventory. All expired medications would be removed from the active supply and destroyed in the facility, regardless of the amount remaining. Based on observation, staff interview, medical record review and review of the facility policy, the facility failed to ensure medications were not left unattended at a resident's bedside. This affected one (#111) of five residents reviewed for medication administration. In addition, the facility failed to ensure medications were removed from use and disposed of upon expiration. This had the potential to affect eight (#16, #22, #27, #30, #36, #39, #44 and #49) residents identified by the facility as receiving insulin. The facility census was 58. Findings include: 1. Review of the medical record reveal Resident #111 was admitted on [DATE].
