Review of Resident #18's progress notes revealed a note written on 03/13/25 at 10:25 A.M. by the Director
of Nursing indicating a call was received from the hospital surgical department indicating Resident #18's
surgery was being rescheduled due to a miscommunication about medications being held. The note
indicated that only basic surgical instructions were present in the facility not the neurological surgery
instructions. The neurology department was to contact the facility with a new appointment.
Residents Affected - Few
Review of Resident #18's March 2025 medication administration record revealed he received 81 milligrams
of aspirin, one tablet by mouth once daily as a blood thinner from 03/01/25 until 03/12/25. There were no
instructions to not administer the resident's aspirin prior to surgery.
In an interview on 04/10/25 at 2:00 P.M. Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) #175 stated when orders were
received that require transportation the receiving nurse enters the orders into the computer, notifying the
receptionist or the activity director so that they can arrange transportation and notify the resident and their
responsible party. If the resident is having testing, surgery or a procedure that requires preparation before
the procedure, those orders should be entered into the electronic medical record when received.
Medications that must be held can have a date entered to start holding the medication and a date entered
to stop holding the medication.
In an interview on 04/14/25 at 2:06 P.M. LPN #145 stated that the nurse who receives preoperative orders
should place them in the electronic medical record and make sure they are entered completely including
any orders to hold medications.
In an interview on 04/14/25 at 2:12 P.M. LPN #101 stated the nurse receiving preoperative orders should
enter those orders into the electronic healthcare record. If the resident is on any type of blood thinning
medication and the medication is not addressed in the preoperative orders a call should be made to the
surgeon for clarification on what to do about these medications.
In an interview on 04/14/25 at 2:42 P.M. Activities Director #136 revealed that when a resident goes out for
an appointment, they are accompanied by someone from the activities department or the facility
receptionist when that position is filled, the accompanying person is also the transportation driver. Activities
Director #136 stated they currently have a Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA), who is on light duty, filling the
receptionist position and she has only been filling the position for about three weeks. The previous
transportation driver is no longer employed at the facility. Activities Director #136 stated the driver obtains
the paperwork to take with the resident to the appointment from the nurse caring for the resident and gives
it to the medical staff at the appointment. The driver stays with the resident and receives any paperwork
returning with the resident to the facility and the driver gives that paperwork to the facility nurse who is
caring for the resident upon their return to the facility.
In an interview on 04/15/25 at 1:27 P.M. the Director of Nursing (DON) verified there were no preoperative
orders in the electronic medical record for Resident #18's surgery scheduled for 03/13/25. The DON
confirmed that Resident #18 received 81 milligrams of aspirin, one tablet by mouth once daily as a blood
thinner from 03/01/25 until 03/12/25. The DON further stated her expectations were that the nurse receiving
the preoperative orders would enter them into the electronic medical record, document them in the
progress notes and notify the responsible party and the resident's medical provider at the nursing home.
The DON stated the aspirin should have been held prior to the scheduled surgery date and if an order was
not received to hold it, with the preoperative orders, a call should have been made to the surgeon for
clarification. The DON verified LPN #147 was the nurse working the

day Resident #18 received his pre-operative orders but the nurse did not indicate what the resident's
specific pre-operative orders were and this resulted in the resident's survey having to be cancelled and
rescheduled because he received his aspirin prior to surgery. The DON verified LPN #147 was no longer
employed at the facility due to not following facility procedures.
In an interview on 04/15/25 at 2:20 P.M. LPN #200 with the hospital neurosurgery department stated
Resident #18's craniotomy surgery was cancelled the morning of 03/13/25 after he arrived at the hospital.
LPN #200 stated that during a review of Resident #18's medication administration record it was discovered
that he had received 81 milligrams of aspirin, one tablet by mouth once daily as a blood thinner on
03/12/25. The hospital called the facility, and the DON verified Resident #18 had received the medication.
The surgeon chose to cancel the craniotomy to remove a benign pituitary tumor because the resident was
at high risk for bleeding from receiving the aspirin. LPN #200 further stated the aspirin should have been
held for at least one week prior to the surgery.
Review of a Pharmacologic Profile used by the facility for antiplatelet agents such as aspirin revealed these
types of medications should be used cautiously in people who were at risk for bleeding from procedures
such as surgery.
Review of the policy titled Charting and Documentation revised July 2017 revealed that changes in the plan
of care goals and objectives and events and incidents involving the resident should be documented in the
resident medical record. Documentation should be complete and accurate.
This deficiency represents non-compliance investigated under Complaint Number OH00163835.

Make sure that the nursing home area is safe, easy to use, clean and comfortable for residents, staff and
the public.
Based on observation and staff interviews, the facility failed to maintain a clean and comfortable
environment for the residents residing in the facility. This affected one resident (Resident #6) of five
residents interviewed on the 100 and 200 units who utilized the community shower. The facility census was
63.
Findings include:
In an interview on 04/10/25 at 1:13 P.M. Resident #6 stated that she did not use the shower room on her
unit but went to the shower on the other side of the building because the shower on her side had a bad
odor and stains on the floor creating an unpleasant shower experience.
Observation of the shower room shared by the 100 hall and 200 hall on 04/10/25 at 1:43 P.M. revealed a
musty, rotten egg-like odor similar to sewage in the shower room and a gray-brown stain that was
approximately an inch wide and four inches in length, on the floor along the wall at the edge of the shower
stall, below the emergency call cord.
In an interview on 04/10/25 at 1:43 P.M. Housekeeper #138 confirmed the odor and the stain on the floor in
the shower room .
In an interview on 04/10/25 at 2:15 P.M. the Administrator verified the odor and the stain on the floor in the
shower room but she thought it had gotten better since there were no recent resident complaints.
In an interview on 04/14/25 at 10:10 A.M. Certified Nursing Assistant #174 stated the shower problem had
started about a month ago and got better for a short time. She stated that the shower room did not have an
odor in the morning but the odor became apparent after two or three showers were given.
This deficiency represents non-compliance investigated under Complaint Number OH00163775.
