**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
medical record review, interview and review of the facility policy, the facility failed to ensure Resident #22's
resident representative was informed of a medication change and a fall. This affected one resident (#22) of
three residents reviewed for changes in condition. The facility census was 65.
Findings include:
Review of the medical record for Resident #22 revealed he was admitted to the facility on [DATE] with
diagnoses including fracture of the nasal bone with routine healing, fracture of the distal phalanx of the right
little finger with routine healing, emphysema, encounter after fall, repeated falls, severe protein-calorie
malnutrition, muscle weakness, laceration of unspecified cheek and temporomandibular area, ischemic
cardiomyopathy, presence of a cardiac pacemaker, and type two diabetes mellitus.
Review of the resident profile and contact information revealed the daughter of Resident #22 was listed as
his emergency contact and responsible party.
Review of the admission Minimum Data Set (MDS) 3.0 assessment completed on 12/29/24 revealed
Resident #22 had intact cognition, no behaviors, received insulin injections and hypoglycemic medication.
Further review of the MDS revealed Resident #22 had sustained falls within one month of admission, within
two to six months of admission, and since being admitted to the facility.
Review of the physician orders dated 12/26/25 revealed Resident #22 had an order to increase Insulin
Glargine-yfgn 100 units per milliliter (ml) to 13 unit subcutaneously daily. Review of the electronic and paper
progress notes from 12/16/24 through 01/31/25 revealed no documented evidence that Resident #22's
responsible party was notified of his medication dosage change.
Review of the facility incident log revealed Resident #22 sustained an unwitnessed fall on 01/13/25. Review
of the progress notes and the fall investigation revealed no documented evidence that Resident #22's
responsible party was notified of his fall.
Interview on 01/31/25 at 5:19 P.M. with the Director of Nursing (DON) confirmed the medical record
contained no evidence of family/responsible party notification of Resident #22's insulin dose change on
12/26/24 or his fall on 01/13/25.

Create and put into place a plan for meeting the resident's most immediate needs within 48 hours of being
admitted
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
record reviews, interviews and facility policy review, the facility failed to implement baseline care plans
within 48 hours after admission for Resident #22, Resident #38 and Resident #62. This affected three
residents (#22, #38, and #62) of three residents reviewed for baseline care plans. The facility census was
65.
Findings include:
1. Review of the medical record for Resident #22 revealed an admission date of 12/18/24 with diagnoses
including fracture of nasal bones, displaced fracture of distal phalanx of the right little finger, diabetes, and
emphysema.
Initial review of the of the electronic medical record (EMR) and the hard chart on 01/28/25 revealed there
was no baseline care plan in place. Review of the binders containing paper documentation from 12/22/24
through 12/31/24 provided by the Director of Nursing (DON) revealed there was no baseline care plan in
place. A subsequent review of the EMR (days after survey entrance) revealed a written baseline care plan
dated 12/19/24 was uploaded into the EMR the evening of 01/28/25 for Resident #22. Further review of the
baseline care plan revealed it was incomplete, as it contained the functional and medical history
assessment criteria but listed no goals or care plan interventions.
Interview on 01/30/25 at 5:19 P.M. with the DON confirmed Resident #22 had no interventions or goals
listed on his baseline care plan.
2. Review of the medical record for Resident #38 revealed an admission date of 01/13/25 and readmission
on [DATE]. Diagnoses included diabetes, hypertensive heart and chronic kidney disease with heart failure,
and chronic diastolic congestive heart failure.
Review of the EMR, the hard chart and binders provided by DON revealed there were no baseline care
plan in place for Resident #38.
3. Review of the medical record for Resident #62 revealed an admission date of 01/16/25 with diagnoses
including congestive heart failure, atrial fibrillation, and dementia.
Review of the EMR, the hard chart and binders provided by DON revealed there was no baseline care plan
in place for Resident #62.
Interview on 01/29/25 at 3:45 P.M. with Social Service Designee (SSD) #334 verified Resident #22 only had
a nutritional goal in the system and no other care plan (including baseline) was in place.
Interviews on 01/30/25 at 10:00 A.M. with DON and Administrator revealed they gave surveyors all the
resident chart information they had verifying there were no baseline care plans for Residents #22, Resident
#38, and Resident #62.
Review of the facility policy titled Care Plans-Baseline, revised 03/2022, revealed baseline care plans
should be developed for each resident within forty-eight hours of admission.

**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
medical record review, interview, and review of facility policy the facility failed to ensure a comprehensive
care plan was developed and implemented for Resident #22. This affected one resident (#22) of three
residents reviewed for care plans. The facility census was 65.
Findings include:
Review of the medical record for Resident #22 revealed he was admitted to the facility on [DATE] with
diagnoses including fracture of the nasal bone with routine healing, fracture of the distal phalanx of the right

Review of the admission Minimum Data Set (MDS) 3.0 assessment completed on 12/29/24 revealed
Resident #22 had intact cognition. Further review of the MDS revealed Resident #22 had sustained falls
within one month of admission, within two to six months of admission, and since being admitted to the
facility.
Review of Resident #22's comprehensive care plan dated 12/23/24 revealed a nutritional care plan focus
only.
Interview on 01/30/25 at 5:19 P.M. with the Director of Nursing (DON) confirmed Resident #22's
comprehensive care plan only contained one nutritional focus and did not reflect the complete and accurate
care planning needs for Resident #22.
Review of the undated policy titled Care Plans, Comprehensive Person-Centered revealed a
comprehensive care plan was to be developed within seven days of completion of the required
comprehensive MDS which included the services, goals and objectives needed for the resident to attain or
maintain their physical, mental, and psychosocial well-being.
This deficiency was an incidental finding identified during the complaint investigation.

Ensure that a nursing home area is free from accident hazards and provides adequate supervision to
prevent accidents.
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
medical record review, interview and review of the facility policy, the facility failed to ensure Resident #22's
fall was thoroughly investigated and failed to ensure fall interventions were in place to prevent a subsequent
fall. This affected one resident (#22) of three residents reviewed for falls. The facility census was 65.
Findings include:
Review of the medical record for Resident #22 revealed he was admitted to the facility on [DATE] with
diagnoses including fracture of the nasal bone with routine healing, fracture of the distal phalanx of the right
little finger with routine healing, emphysema, encounter after fall, repeated falls, severe protein-calorie
malnutrition, muscle weakness, laceration of unspecified cheek and temporomandibular area, ischemic
cardiomyopathy, and presence of a cardiac pacemaker, and type two diabetes mellitus.
Review of the baseline care plan completed on 12/19/24 revealed Resident #22 was a fall risk and was
admitted for a previous fall. Further review of the baseline care plan revealed there were no goals or
interventions related to falls or fall prevention.
Review of the progress notes revealed a note dated 12/22/24 at 12:00 A.M. that Resident #22 was found on
his bed holding a napkin to a previous facial laceration that was re-bleeding. The note further revealed
Resident #22 reported to the nurse that he had fallen when he was in his bathroom and hit his head on the
rail in the bathroom.
Review of the comprehensive care plan dated 12/23/24 revealed there was no care plan focus related to
falls and no intervention in place to prevent falls.
Review of the admission Minimum Data Set (MDS) 3.0 assessment completed on 12/29/24 revealed
Resident #22 had intact cognition, no behaviors, and no rejection of care. Further review of the MDS
revealed Resident #22 had sustained falls within one month of admission, within two to six months of
admission, and since being admitted to the facility.
Review of the facility incident logs from 11/01/24 through 01/27/25 revealed Resident #22 sustained only
one fall while in the facility, an unwitnessed fall on 01/13/25. There was no incident logged for a fall that
Resident #22 sustained on 12/22/24.
Interview on 01/30/25 at 2:15 P.M. with the Director of Nursing (DON) confirmed only two incidents were
logged on paper during their scheduled electronic medical record (EMR) downtime between 12/22/24 and
12/31/24, and Resident #22 was not one of them. A follow-up interview on 01/30/25 at 5:19 P.M. confirmed
the facility was to conduct an investigation into falls to try to find the root cause of the fall and a way to
prevent future falls. She also confirmed there was no fall investigation, just an initial Fall Review
assessment completed by the floor nurse at the time of the incident, and no evidence an interdisciplinary
team (IDT) meeting was held to review Resident #22's fall, interventions, or the need to alter or add new
interventions. During this interview, the DON confirmed Resident #22 had no interventions for falls in his
baseline care plan (dated 12/19/24) or his comprehensive care plan (dated 12/23/24).

**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
record review, observation, interview, manufacturer's instructions for use of Insulin Glargine - yfgn and
review of the facility policy, the facility failed to ensure a medication error rate of less than five percent. This
affected three residents (#4, #38, and #54) of five residents observed for medication administration and
yielded a 13.79 percent medication error rate. The facility census was 65.
Residents Affected - Few
Findings include:
1. Review of the medical record for Resident #38 revealed an admission date of 01/13/25 and a re-entry
date of 01/18/25. Admitting diagnoses included type two diabetes mellitus, hypertensive heart and chronic
kidney disease with heart failure, chronic diastolic congestive heart failure (CHF), stage three chronic
kidney disease, morbid obesity, gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), hyperglycemia, obstructive sleep
apnea, chronic pain, hypothyroidism, and long-term use of insulin.
Review of the admission Minimum Data Set (MDS) 3.0 assessment completed on 01/23/25 revealed the
Brief Interview for Mental Status (BIMS) was not completed and her cognition was not assessed; however,
the BIMS completed on 11/28/24 during a previous admission to the facility revealed Resident #38 had
severely impaired cognition. Further review of the admission MDS revealed Resident #38's primary medical
condition was type two diabetes mellitus with chronic kidney disease, and she received insulin daily, as well
as medications from other high-risk categories which included antidepressants, diuretic, antiplatelet, and
hypoglycemic medications.
Review of the January 2025 physician orders revealed an order dated 01/18/25 for Insulin Glargine-yfgn
100 units per milliliter (ml) solution pen-injector, 27 units subcutaneously two times a day for glucose.
Further review of the orders dated 01/18/25 revealed an order for Omeprazole oral capsule delayed release
(DR) 40 milligrams (mg) by mouth one time a day for GERD. Review of the medication administration
record (MAR) revealed the Omeprazole was scheduled to be administered at 7:00 A.M.
Observation of medication preparation and administration on 01/28/25 from 9:30 A.M. to 9:46 A.M. revealed
Registered Nurse (RN) #310 did not prime the insulin needle by dialing and wasting two units prior to
setting the dose in the insulin pen to the ordered 27 units when preparing Resident #38's medications.
Further observation revealed the ordered Omeprazole was not placed in the medicine cup for
administration.
Interview on 01/28/25 at 9:40 A.M. with RN #310 confirmed the Omeprazole was not in stock, and she
would have to order more from the pharmacy after she completed the medication pass. Another interview
with RN #310 on 01/28/25 at 11:45 A.M. revealed she learned the facility had Omeprazole in stock and
planned to administer the medication to Resident #38 shortly and would notify the surveyor when ready to
give this medication. RN #310 did not notify the surveyor that the Omeprazole was administered. A
follow-up interview with RN #310 at 3:44 P.M. confirmed she did administer Resident #38's Omeprazole, but
not until around 2:00 P.M.
Interview on 01/28/25 at 3:22 P.M. with Resident #38 confirmed she received the Omeprazole (scheduled
for 7:00 A.M.) that afternoon when she stated, The nurse just came a little bit ago to give me that stomach
pill. Further interview with Resident #38 revealed she typically received her morning insulin after breakfast
and that her blood sugar was sometimes high in the morning because the nurses do not check it until after
she eats.

Interview on 01/28/25 at 5:00 P.M. with RN #310 confirmed she did not prime Resident #38's insulin needle
with two units prior to setting the ordered dose of 27 units on the insulin glargine - yfgn pen and
administering the medication. RN #310 further confirmed she was unaware of the manufacturer's
instructions to prime the needle with two units prior to administration.
Review of the manufacturer's instructions for use of Insulin Glargine - yfgn prefilled pen revealed Step three
required the needle to be primed to make sure the needle was working properly, and the resident received
the correct dose of the insulin. Further review of the instructions revealed the user was to dial two units on
the dose selector and then press the injection button all the way in, causing the insulin to come out of the
tip of the pen prior to turning the dial on the dose selector to the ordered number of units. The instructions
further cautioned the pen should not be used unless insulin was seen coming from the needle prior to
preparing and administering the proper dose.
Review of the facility policy titled Administering Medications, dated April 2019, revealed medications were
to be administered in accordance with prescriber orders, including any required timeframes, and
medications were to be administered within one hour of their prescribed time, unless otherwise specified,
such as before and after meal orders.
2. Review of the medical record for Resident #4 revealed he was admitted to the facility on [DATE] with
diagnoses including hemiplegia and hemiparesis following a cerebral infarction affecting the left
non-dominant side, polyneuropathy, toxic encephalopathy, muscle weakness, major depressive disorder,
localized edema, dysphagia, chronic pain, unspecified convulsions, age-related cognitive decline, and
glaucoma.
Review of the quarterly MDS 3.0 assessment completed on 10/12/24 revealed Resident #4 had impaired
vision and intact cognition. Further review of the MDS revealed Resident #4 had impaired range of motion
(ROM) of the upper and lower extremities on one side of his body and required substantial to maximal
assistance with personal care and transfers.
Review of the January 2025 physician orders revealed an order dated 09/08/24 for brimonidine tartrate
ophthalmic solution 0.2 % (a medication used to lower intraocular pressure), one drop in both eyes two
times a day. Further review revealed an order dated 09/09/24 for dorzolamide HCl-timolol solution 22.3-6.8
mg per ml, one drop in both eyes two times a day for glaucoma. Review of the medication administration
record (MAR) revealed the dorzolamide/timolol eye drops were scheduled for 7:00 A.M. and 7:00 P.M. and
the brimonidine tartrate drops were scheduled to be administered at 9:00 A.M. and 9:00 P.M.
Observation on 01/28/25 from 9:10 A.M. to 9:15 A.M. revealed Resident #4 sitting in his wheelchair in the
dining hall during morning medication administration. During the observation, RN #310 administered one
drop of the dorzolamide/timolol solution into each eye of Resident #4 and informed him she would return in
approximately five minutes to administer the other ordered eye drops (the brimonidine tartrate).
Observation on 01/28/25 at 9:50 A.M. revealed RN #310 returned to the dining hall to administer Resident
#4 his brimonidine tartrate ophthalmic solution 0.2 %, but Resident #4 was unable to lean his head back
and she was unable to successfully administer the prescribed drops. At this time, RN #310 informed
Resident #4 she would try again later after the Certified Nurse Aides (CNAs) laid him down in bed.

0.2 % administration on 01/28/25 revealed the eye drops were scheduled to be given at 9:00 A.M. and 9:00
P.M. and the 9:00 A.M. dose was not documented as given until 3:47 P.M. (the evening dose was then
administered at 8:22 P.M. on 01/28/25).
Review of the facility policy titled Administering Medications, dated April 2019, revealed medications were
to be administered in accordance with prescriber orders, including any required timeframes, and
medications were to be administered within one hour of their prescribed time, unless otherwise specified.
3. Review of the medical record for Resident #54 revealed he was admitted on [DATE] with diagnoses
including type two diabetes mellitus with diabetic chronic kidney disease, unspecified severe dementia with
agitation, epilepsy, moderate protein-calorie malnutrition, anxiety disorder, mental disorder not otherwise
specified, anemia, hyperlipidemia, alcohol dependence (in remission), and long-term (current) use of
insulin.
Review of the January 2025 physician orders revealed Resident #54 had an order dated 10/17/24 for
insulin lispro 100 units per milliliter (units/ml) per sliding scale subcutaneously two times a day as follows:
notify physician or nurse practitioner of blood sugar less than 70 or greater than 400; three units for blood
sugar 181 to 250; six units for blood sugar 21 to 300; 12 units for blood sugar 301 to 400; and 15 units for
blood sugar greater than 401. Review of the MAR revealed the insulin lispro was scheduled to be
administered at 7:00 A.M. and 1:00 P.M. Further review of the physician orders revealed an order dated
11/26/24 for insulin glargine subcutaneous solution 100 units/ml, 14 units subcutaneously once daily for
diabetes mellitus. Review of the MAR revealed the insulin glargine was scheduled for 7:00 A.M.
Observation on 01/28/25 at 10:11 A.M. revealed RN #310 performed a fingerstick blood sugar (FSBS) test
on Resident #54, which confirmed the FSBS result at that time was 297. During the FSBS test, Resident
#54 was noted to be agitated and had bilateral hand tremors. RN #310 then exited Resident #54's room
and began preparing medications for another resident. When asked what time the surveyor should return to
watch insulin administration for Resident #54, RN #310 stated she would do it later when he called down.
This surveyor instructed RN #310 to notify the surveyor when she was ready to prepare the insulin injection
for Resident #54 and informed RN #310 that the surveyor would remain in her sight at the nurse's station.
Interview on 01/28/25 at 11:45 A.M. with RN #310 confirmed she had not notified the surveyor when she
was ready to administer Resident #54's scheduled 7:00 A.M. insulin but revealed she had given Resident
#54 his insulin around eleven (11:00 A.M.) with the assistance of another floor nurse.
Review of the facility policy titled Administering Medications, dated April 2019, revealed medications were
to be administered in accordance with prescriber orders, including any required timeframes, and
medications were to be administered within one hour of their prescribed time, unless otherwise specified.

Level of Harm - Minimal harm
or potential for actual harm
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
observation, interview, review of the manufacturer's instructions for use of Insulin Glargine - yfgn and review
of facility policy, the facility failed to ensure medications were administered according to physician's orders
for Residents #22, #38, and #54. This affected three residents (#22, #38 and #54) of three residents
reviewed for insulin administration and had the potential to affect ten additional residents (#2, #3, #5, #12,
#16, #25, #26, #34, #44 and #45) identified by the facility with physician's orders for insulin. The facility
census was 65.
Residents Affected - Some
Findings include:
1. Review of the medical record for Resident #38 revealed an admission date of 01/13/25 and a re-entry
date of 01/18/25. Admitting diagnoses included type two diabetes mellitus, hypertensive heart and chronic
kidney disease with heart failure, chronic diastolic congestive heart failure (CHF), stage three chronic
kidney disease, morbid obesity, gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), hyperglycemia, obstructive sleep
apnea, chronic pain, hypothyroidism, and long-term use of insulin.
Review of the admission Minimum Data Set (MDS) 3.0 assessment completed on 01/23/25 revealed the
Brief Interview for Mental Status (BIMS) was not completed and Resident #38's cognition was not
assessed; however, the BIMS completed on 11/28/24 during a previous admission to the facility revealed
Resident #38 had severely impaired cognition. Further review of the admission MDS revealed Resident
#38's primary medical condition was type two diabetes mellitus with chronic kidney disease, and she
received insulin daily, as well as medications from other high-risk categories which included
antidepressants, diuretic, antiplatelet, and hypoglycemic medications.
Review of the physician orders revealed an order dated 01/18/25 for Insulin Glargine-yfgn 100 units per
milliliter (ml) solution pen-injector, 27 unit subcutaneously two times a day for glucose. Further review of the
orders revealed orders dated 01/18/24 for insulin lispro 100 units per milliliter (units/ml), 10 units
subcutaneously with meals for diabetes and per sliding scale to be administered before meals and at
bedtime subcutaneously as follows: notify physician if blood sugar was greater than 400; give zero units for
blood sugar 0 to 150; one unit for blood sugar 151 to 200; two units for blood sugar 201 to 250; three units
for blood sugar 251 to 300.
Observation of medication preparation and administration on 01/28/25 from 9:30 A.M. to 9:46 A.M. revealed
Registered Nurse (RN) #310 did not prime the insulin needle by dialing and wasting two units prior to
setting the dose in the insulin pen to the ordered 27 units when preparing Resident #38's medications.
Further observation revealed the ordered Omeprazole was not placed in the medicine cup for
administration. During the observation, Resident #38 was informed by RN #310 how much insulin lispro
coverage she would receive per the sliding scale and Resident #38 replied, well, that's because I already
ate.
Interview on 01/28/25 at 5:00 P.M. with RN #310 confirmed she did not prime Resident #58's insulin needle
with two units prior to setting the ordered dose of 27 units on the insulin glargine - yfgn pen and
administering the medication. RN #310 further confirmed she was unaware of the manufacturer's
instructions to prime the needle with two units prior to administration.
Review of the medication administration record (MAR) revealed no documentation of the administration of
insulin lispro 10 units/ml subcutaneously with meals on 01/18/25, no documented blood sugar

each day.
Review of the manufacturer's instructions for use of Insulin Glargine - yfgn prefilled pen revealed insulin
glargine should be given the same time each day.
Review of the policy titled Administering Medications, dated April 2019, revealed medications were to be
administered in accordance with prescriber orders, including any required timeframes, and medications
were to be administered within one hour of their prescribed time, unless otherwise specified, such as before
or after meals.
3. Review of the medical record for Resident #22 revealed he was admitted to the facility on [DATE] with
diagnoses including fracture of the nasal bone with routine healing, fracture of the distal phalanx of the right
little finger with routine healing, emphysema, encounter after fall, repeated falls, severe protein-calorie
malnutrition, muscle weakness, laceration of unspecified cheek and temporomandibular area, ischemic
cardiomyopathy, and presence of a cardiac pacemaker, and type two diabetes mellitus.
Review of the admission MDS 3.0 assessment completed on 12/29/24 revealed Resident #22 had intact
cognition, no behaviors, and received insulin injections and hypoglycemic medication.
Review of the physician orders dated 12/26/25 revealed Resident #22 had an order to increase insulin
glargine-yfgn 100 units per ml to 13 units subcutaneously daily. Further review of the orders revealed that
Resident #22's insulin glargine-yfgn 100 units per ml was increased to 15 units subcutaneously daily on
01/08/25. An order dated 12/19/24 revealed Resident #22 was to receive insulin lispro 100 units/ml per
sliding scale subcutaneously with meals. The sliding scale was as follows: give one unit for blood sugar 111
to 150; three units for blood sugar 151 to 200; six units for blood sugar 201 to 250; nine units for blood
sugar 251 to 300; 12 units for blood sugar 301 to 350; 15 units for blood sugar 351 to 400; and give 15 units

or potential for actual harm
Residents Affected - Some
Safeguard resident-identifiable information and/or maintain medical records on each resident that are in
accordance with accepted professional standards.
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
review of electronic medical records (EMR), hard charts and binders (utilized during transition of EMR) and
interviews with staff, the facility failed to maintain complete, accurate, and readily accessible records for
Residents #6, #17, #22, #51 and #53. This affected five (#6, #17, #22, #51 and #53) of seven resident
records reviewed for complete and accurate medical records. The facility census was 65.
Findings include:
1. Review of the medical record for Resident #6 revealed an admission date of 3/01/24 with a readmission
date of 07/05/24. Diagnoses included dementia with agitation, chronic kidney disease, and history of falls.
Review of the annual Minimum Data Set (MDS) 3.0 assessment dated [DATE] revealed Resident #6 was
cognitively impaired.
Review of the care plan initiated on 03/29/24 revealed a problem for resistive behaviors indicating Resident
#6 became easily agitated.
Review of a progress note dated 12/29/24 revealed Resident #6 was combative prior to a fall; however, it
did not specify the resident choked CNA #303 during a transfer (per interview below).
Review of Resident #6's Fall Risk assessment dated [DATE] revealed it was incomplete, missing the prior
number of falls, vision status, cognitive and behavioral symptoms, health conditions, medications and score
so the Fall Risk Assessment did not accurately reflect Resident #6's risk factors for falls.
Review of the Treatment Administration Record (TAR) for December 2024 revealed no evidence of behavior
tracking dated 12/29/24 when Resident #6 became combative and choked an aide. The TAR, on 12/30/24,
had a checkmark which indicated administered but no description on whether or not Resident #6 had a
behavior and what type of behavior was specified. No other dates indicated behaviors. There was no other
documented evidence that was provided regarding behavior tracking.
Further review of Resident #6's care plan revealed the new behavior of choking staff that occurred on
12/29/24 was not added to the care plan and there were no updated interventions.
Further review of the EMR, hard chart and binder for certified nursing assistant (CNA) documentation from
12/22/24 to 12/31/24 revealed no meal intake records for Resident #6, and no CNA documentation related
to incontinence care.
Interview on 01/28/25 at 9:30 A.M. with Administrator revealed she was unaware Resident #6 choked CNA
#303 on 12/29/24. The Administrator took a statement from CNA #303 on 01/28/25.
Interview on 01/28/25 at 9:45 A.M. with CNA #303 revealed Resident #6 had choked her while she was
trying to transfer him. She was unsure of the date but indicated it was at the end of December 2024. She
stated she reported Resident #6's behavior to the nurse. The nurse wrote a note stating, Resident #6 was
combative and completed a fall assessment on 12/29/24 as he fell off the bed during this

Review of the POC aide paper documentation binder revealed from 12/22/24 through 12/31/24 revealed the
only aide documentation of POC tasks included BM and meal intake tracking, and no documentation of
incontinence care.
Residents Affected - Some
Interview on 01/29/25 at 3:59 P.M. with the DON regarding not receiving the documentation requested
beginning on 01/27/25 for Residents #6, #17, #22, #51 and #53, and the DON revealed she created
binders for each unit to use during the EMR transition from 12/22/24 to 12/31/24. Surveyors requested the
binders, and the DON was gone for 45 minutes. Surveyors then requested the binders from the
Administrator at 4:45 P.M. The DON brought them at 4:50 P.M. There were binders for the medication
administration records (MARs) and TARs for each medication cart, progress notes for each unit, and four
binders for the CNAs to document bowel and bladder information and meal intakes. There were 15 binders.
These were not provided to the surveyors until 01/29/25 at 4:50 P.M. despite asking for all resident
documentation throughout the survey beginning 01/27/25.
Interview on 01/29/25 at 4:50 P.M. with the DON and Administrator revealed the DON felt she had to dumb
it down for nursing regarding documentation during the EMR transition. She chose to create binders for
written documentation rather than have the staff document in the residents' hard charts. She stated any
completed handwritten documentation was to be given to the Assistant Directors of Nursing (ADONs) who
would then manage. Review of the progress notes and CNA binders with DON and Administrator verified
there was little to no documentation for Residents #6, #17, #22, #51 and #53.
Review of the undated facility policy titled Documentation and Communication revealed information
recorded should include all assessment data and reason for resident refusal of procedure and interventions
taken.
This deficiency was an incidental finding identified during the complaint investigation.

Level of Harm - Minimal harm
or potential for actual harm
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
observation, interview, review of the facility policy and review of the Centers for Disease Control and
Prevention (CDC) website's Considerations for Blood Glucose Monitoring and Insulin Administration
summary of recommendations for blood glucose monitoring, the facility failed to properly clean and disinfect
the blood glucose monitor (BGM) between resident use. This affected one resident (Resident #54) of five
residents observed during medication administration and had the potential to affect three additional
residents (#5, #12 and #38) who receive blood sugar monitoring in the 200 Mid Hall. The facility census
was 65.
Residents Affected - Few
Findings include:
Review of the medical record for Resident #54 revealed he was admitted on [DATE] with diagnoses
including type two diabetes mellitus with diabetic chronic kidney disease, unspecified severe dementia with
agitation, epilepsy, moderate protein-calorie malnutrition, anxiety disorder, mental disorder not otherwise
specified, anemia, hyperlipidemia, alcohol dependence (in remission), and long-term (current) use of
insulin.
Review of the physician orders revealed Resident #54 had an order dated 10/17/24 for insulin lispro 100
units per milliliter (units/ml) per sliding scale subcutaneously two times a day as follows: notify physician or
nurse practitioner of blood sugar less than 70 or greater than 400; three units for blood sugar 181 to 250;
six units for blood sugar 21 to 300; 12 units for blood sugar 301 to 400; and 15 units for blood sugar greater
than 401.
Observation on 01/28/25 at 9:30 A.M. revealed Registered Nurse (RN) #310 performed a fingerstick blood
sugar (FSBS) test on Resident #38. Further observation on 01/28/25 revealed RN #310 exited the
resident's room and placed the BGM in the top drawer of the medication cart at 9:32 A.M. without cleaning
it.
Observation on 01/28/25 at 10:11 A.M. revealed RN #310 performed a fingerstick blood sugar FSBS test on
Resident #54, after pulling the same BGM used to check Resident #38's blood sugar out of the top drawer
of the medication cart. RN #310 then exited Resident #54's room at 10:14 A.M. and placed the BGM in the
top drawer of the medication cart without cleaning it.
Interview on 01/28/25 at 10:18 A.M. with RN #310 confirmed the same BGM was used for both Resident
#38 and Resident #54 and that it had been stored in the top drawer of her medication cart without being
clean or properly disinfected in between uses. During the interview, RN #310 also confirmed she typically
had two BGMs in her medication cart but checked all the drawers at that time and found she only had the
one BGM. RN #310 further revealed she knew she was to use the disinfecting wipes on her cart and allow
for a five-minute dry time prior to reusing the BGM, but she was rushing to pass medications timely and
forgot.
Review of the CDC website's Considerations for Blood Glucose Monitoring and Insulin Administration
summary of recommendations for blood glucose monitoring revealed BGM's were to be cleaned and
disinfected per the manufacturer's recommendations after every use to prevent the spread of bloodborne
pathogens and infectious agents.
