message for LPN #806 who then wrote it on an appointment paper and passed the information to the

iodine. She stated the radiology department returned the resident to the facility without completing the
surgery and set up a new date of 12/22/23 for the nephrostomy tube placement and possible stent removal.

surgery on 12/26/23 to remove a right kidney stone and/or replace the kidney/ureter stent. The DON

orders. The DON confirmed the note was accidentally placed in the resident's record and the appointment
was not placed in the computer or provided to the scheduler. The DON confirmed transportation was not
