F 0697 Level of Harm - Actual harm Residents Affected - Few Review of nursing progress notes dated 11/18/19 at 12:39 P.M. revealed documentation from the nurse practitioner stating the resident was found sitting up in bed in no acute distress. The resident was calm and cooperative. The resident complained of gout to his great toes on both feet. Interview with the resident's significant other on 11/19/19 at 9:50 A.M. revealed he was in a lot of pain. She stated she was constantly calling the nurse yesterday to get the medication for him due to his gout pain. She was very frustrated and stated she could not get anyone to help him. Observation of the resident on 11/19/19 at 11:00 A.M. revealed the resident asleep in bed. The resident's significant other stated the resident had finally fallen asleep, and she hoped he slept for awhile because he was not feeling good and still having pain, and had not eaten anything. When asked if he got the medicine for his gout, she stated no. She stated he had not received anything for pain. She stated he now had other things going on and was now having bad abdominal pain on top of the gout pain. Further review of the physician orders revealed he was ordered Tylenol 325 mg two tablets every four hours as needed for general discomfort. Review of the resident's Medication Administration Record (MAR) for the month of November 2019 revealed he had not received Tylenol for his complaints of gout pain.

Review of the nursing progress notes dated 11/18/19 at 10:58 P.M. revealed the Colchicine had not been given because it was not available. Review of the nursing progress notes dated 11/19/19 at 8:00 A.M. revealed the Colchicine was not given because it had not been delivered from the pharmacy. Review of the MAR revealed the evening dose of Colchicine on 11/19/19 was not administered because the resident refused all medication due to abdominal pain and nausea. Interview with LPN #304 on 11/21/19 at 10:00 A.M. revealed she took care of the resident on Monday (11/18/19) night shift. She stated the resident was complaining of gout pain, but she could not remember if he was showing signs and/or symptoms of pain. She verified she did not give the resident his ordered dose of Colchicine because she did not have the medication. She also stated there was a discrepancy with the order because the nurse practitioner ordered 0.625 mg, and Colchicine only comes in 0.6 mg. She contacted the physician the night of 11/18/19 to verify the ordered dosage amount and how often it should be given. She stated the physician did call her back, and he clarified the order to read Colchicine 0.6 mg two times a day. She then contacted the pharmacy and told them the correct order, and she told them she needed the medication delivered. When questioned if the she had given the resident anything for pain since she did not have the Colchicine, she stated she did not remember. She stated if she had given the resident Tylenol, she would have signed it off.
