Protect each resident from the wrongful use of the resident's belongings or money.
Level of Harm - Minimal harm
or potential for actual harm
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on a
review of facility policy, clinical records, incident investigations, and staff interviews, it was determined that
the facility failed to ensure that residents are free from misappropriation of property for four of nine
residents (Resident R1, R2, R3, and R4).
Residents Affected - Some
Findings include:
Review of the facility policy Abuse, Neglect, & Misappropriation dated 7/31/24, previously reviewed
12/15/23, defined misappropriation of resident property as the deliberate misplacement, exploitation, or
wrongful, temporary, or permanent use of a resident's belongings or money without the resident's consent.
Review of the facility policy Identifying Exploitation, Theft and Misappropriation of Resident Property dated
12/15/23, indicated misappropriation of resident property is strictly prohibited, with drug diversion (taking
the resident's medication) provided as an example of misappropriation.
Review of the Resident Assessment Instrument 3.0 User's Manual effective October 2023, indicated that a
Brief Interview for Mental Status (BIMS) is a screening test that aides in detecting cognitive impairment.
The BIMS total score suggests the following distributions:
13-15: cognitively intact
8-12: moderately impaired
0-7: severe impairment
Review of the clinical record revealed that Resident R1 was admitted to the facility on [DATE].
Review of the Minimum Data Set (MDS - periodic assessment of care needs) dated 6/3/24, included
diagnoses of chronic kidney disease (gradual loss of kidney function), muscle weakness, and care needed
after surgical amputation. Review of Section C revealed Resident R1's BIMS score to be 15.
Review of a physician's order dated 5/26/24, indicated Resident R1 received Oxycodone HCL 5 mg
(milligrams) tablet (a narcotic pain medication), to give 5 mg mouth every 4 hours as needed for pain
moderate 5-7 AND give 10 mg mouth every 4 hours as needed for severe pain 8-10.
Review of Resident R1's Medication Administration Record (MAR) for July 2024, indicated nine

Residents Affected - Some
there was a suspicious med administration. The med administration involved [Resident R1]. It was reported
that [Resident R1] received PRN (as needed) pain meds at 4:30 a.m., but the resident denied receiving
them when [RN Employee E2] inquired. Upon learning of this situation, the narcotic medication book was
inspected for accuracy. Patterns with the off going nurse, [LPN Employee E1], were apparent. Another
resident [Resident R2], also seem to have a questionable med administration documented. I went to talk to
[Resident R1], who is alert and oriented. He, again, stated that he had not received any pain medications
this morning. I asked him if he received any pain medications throughout the night, he responded no. I
asked him if he had received any pain medications last evening, he admitted to taking pain meds sometime
around dinner. Between approximately 4pm and 4:30 am, [Resident R1] had four administrations
documented by [LPN Employee E1]. After speaking with this resident, I went to speak with [Resident R2],
who is also alert and oriented. [Resident R2] told me that she does not want to take narcotics because of a
past addiction, but she does take Tylenol (acetaminophen, a non-prescription pain reliever). I asked her
when the last time was that she took her oxycodone. She said sometime over the weekend. I asked her
specifically if she received the pain medications last night, she responded no. [LPN Employee E1]
documented the administration of [Resident R2's] narcotics at approximately 9:00 p.m. last night.
Investigation has been launched and [LPN Employee E1] has been removed from the schedule, pending
the investigation.
Review of a statement provided to the DON, signed by Resident R1, dated 8/15/24, indicated, DON asked
[Resident R1] if he received pain medication early this morning. He responded that he did not remember
getting pain medication at that time. DON asked when the last time he received pain meds, he responded
around dinner time. DON asked if he received pain meds at all throughout the night, he said that he did not
and that he slept through the night.
During an interview on 8/31/24, at 12:28 p.m. RN Employee E2 stated that on the morning of 8/15/24, LPN
Employee E1 had already left the facility when she arrived. RN Employee E2 stated she reviewed the report
sheet left by LPN Employee E1 and noted multiple narcotic medication administrations that were not
consistent with what was normally provided to the residents. RN Employee E1 stated she asked Resident
R1 if he had taken any pain medication overnight, and he stated that he had not. RN Employee E1 stated
that at this time she communicated her concerns to nursing administration.
Review of the clinical record indicated Resident R2 was admitted to the facility on [DATE].
Review of the MDS dated [DATE], included diagnoses of arthritis (inflammation of one or more joints,
causing pain and stiffness), presence of a left artificial knee joint, and care after joint replacement surgery.
Review of Section C revealed Resident R2's BIMS score to be 15.
Review of a physician's order dated 8/2/24, indicated to give 5 mg mouth every 4 hours as needed for pain
moderate 4-6 AND give 10 mg mouth every 4 hours as needed for severe pain 7-10.
Review of Resident R2's MAR for August 2024, (8/1/24 - 8/15/24) indicated 15 administrations of
oxycodone:
8/04/24: 10 mg at 10:18 a.m., 10 mg at 4:29 p.m.
8/05/24: 10 mg at 9:26 a.m.

receiving pain medications, as she needs/requests them. Resident responded that she only asks for
Tylenol, but she does receive it when requested. DON inquired if Tylenol works, resident responded that
Tylenol takes the edge off and makes it bearable. DON explained to the resident that she has the option of
taking her prescribed narcotics. Resident declined the invitation to take narcotics, stating that she was
afraid of becoming addicted since she had a prior addiction sometime in the past. DON inquired if the
resident had taken the narcotics the night prior, resident responded No.
Review of a progress note dated 8/19/24, at 11:20 a.m. indicated, resident being reviewed for recent
medication concerns. Resident is currently functioning at psychological baseline. Resident still insists on
only taking Tylenol for pain, even after being educated about other available alternatives. Resident's care
plan has been updated to reflect possible mood changes in connection with medication concerns.

The MAR indicated all administrations between 8/10/24, through 8/15/24, at 4:33 a.m. were provided by
Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) Employee E1.
Review of facility submitted documentation on 8/16/24, indicated that on 8/15/24, at approximately 0700
(7:00 a.m.), the oncoming nurse was informed via shift change report that the resident had received 10mg
of oxycodone at 0430. When the assigned nurse went to pass the routine morning medications to the
resident, the nurse inquired about the administration of the PRN oxycodone. Resident informed nurse that
he had not received any pain medication at the reported time. The nurse that documented the completed
med administration is an agency nurse.
Review of a statement written by the Director of Nursing (DON) dated 8/15/24, indicated, At approximately
9:15 this morning, [Registered Nurse (RN) Employee E2] assigned to cart 1 reported to me that there was
a suspicious med administration. The med administration involved [Resident R1]. It was reported that
[Resident R1] received PRN (as needed) pain meds at 4:30 a.m., but the resident denied receiving them
when [RN Employee E2] inquired. Upon learning of this situation, the narcotic medication book was
inspected for accuracy. Patterns with the off going nurse, [LPN Employee E1], were apparent. Another
resident [Resident R2], also seem to have a questionable med administration documented. I went to talk to
[Resident R1], who is alert and oriented. He, again, stated that he had not received any pain medications
this morning. I asked him if he received any pain medications throughout the night, he responded no. I
asked him if he had received any pain medications last evening, he admitted to taking pain meds sometime
around dinner. Between approximately 4pm and 4:30 am, [Resident R1] had 4 administrations documented
by [LPN Employee E1]. After speaking with this resident, I went to speak with [Resident R2], who is also
alert and oriented. [Resident R2] told me that she does not want to take narcotics because of a past
addiction, but she does take Tylenol (acetaminophen, a non-prescription pain reliever). I asked her when
the last time was that she too her oxycodone. She said sometime over the weekend. I asked her specifically
if she received the pain medications last night,

Respond appropriately to all alleged violations.
Level of Harm - Minimal harm
or potential for actual harm
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
review of facility policy, clinical records, and staff interviews, it was determined that the facility failed to
implement policies and procedures to investigate misappropriation of resident property for eight of nine
residents (Resident R1, R2, R3, R4, R5, R6, R7, and R8)
Residents Affected - Some
Findings include:
Review of the facility policy Abuse, Neglect, & Misappropriation dated 7/31/24, previously reviewed
12/15/23, defined misappropriation of resident property as the deliberate misplacement, exploitation, or
wrongful, temporary, or permanent use of a resident's belongings or money without the resident's consent.
Review of the facility policy Controlled Substances Accountability Guide dated 12/29/21, indicated under
Chapter 8: Suspected Diversion, indicated In cases where diversion is suspected or the suspicion of
diversion needs to be ruled out, the facility should observe frequent PRN (as needed) use that cannot be
explained by resident condition, frequent PRN use limited to a specific nurse, and frequent PRN use of
narcotic analgesia not supported by pain assessment.
Review of the Resident Assessment Instrument 3.0 User's Manual, effective October 2023, indicated that a
Brief Interview for Mental Status (BIMS) is a screening test that aides in detecting cognitive impairment.
The BIMS total score suggests the following distributions:
13-15: cognitively intact
8-12: moderately impaired
0-7: severe impairment
Review of the clinical record revealed that Resident R1 was admitted to the facility on [DATE].
Review of the Minimum Data Set (MDS - periodic assessment of care needs) dated 6/3/24, included
diagnoses of chronic kidney disease (gradual loss of kidney function), muscle weakness, and care needed
after surgical amputation. Review of Section C revealed Resident R1's BIMS score to be 15.
Review of a physician's order dated 5/26/24, indicated Resident R1 received Oxycodone HCL 5 mg
(milligrams) tablet (a narcotic pain medication), to give 5 mg mouth every 4 hours as needed for pain
moderate 5-7 AND give 10 mg mouth every 4 hours as needed for severe pain 8-10.
Review of Resident R1's Medication Administration Record (MAR) for July 2024, indicated nine
administrations of oxycodone:
7/01/24: 5 mg at 8:10 p.m.
7/05/24: 10 mg at 7:02 p.m.
7/06/24: 10 mg at 12:09 p.m.

Residents Affected - Some
Provide enough nursing staff every day to meet the needs of every resident; and have a licensed nurse in
charge on each shift.
Based on review of facility policy, resident observations, resident and staff interviews, and grievance review,
it was determined that the facility failed to have sufficient nursing staff to provide nursing and related
services to attain or maintain the highest practicable physical, mental, and psychosocial well-being of five of
eight residents (Residents R1, R9, R10, R11, and R12).
Findings Include:
Review of the facility policy, Activities of Daily Living (ADLs), Supporting dated 7/31/24, previously reviewed
12/15/23, indicated residents who are unable to carry out activities of daily living independently will receive
the services necessary to maintain good nutrition, grooming and personal and oral hygiene.
During an interview on 8/31/24, at 2:15 p.m. Resident R12, when asked if she felt the facility maintained
sufficient staff, stated, No, and the evening shift doesn't do their jobs. When asked if call lights took a long
time to be answered, stated that she has waited 2 - 2 ½ hours for care to be provided, and further
confirmed that she has been left in soiled briefs and clothing.
During an interview on 8/31/24, at 2:22 p.m. Resident R9, when asked if she felt the facility maintained
sufficient staff, stated, No, they need more help. When you are on the toilet you have to wait like an hour to
get off. When asked if call lights took a long time to be answered, stated, A while, it's cause there's just not
enough help, that's all.
During an interview on 8/31/24, at 2:30 p.m. Resident R10, when asked if she felt the facility maintained
sufficient staff, stated, No. When asked if she has ever been left soiled for an extended period of time,
stated, Yes, constantly. I get left overnight. I rang the bell before shift change and didn't get changed until 1
p.m. today. I had diarrhea all up in my front parts. I've had diarrhea for four days and I've been left dirty for
hours. Resident R10 further stated, If I don't get everything after dinner, you can forget it.
Review of Resident R10's bowel record failed to reveal any incontinence care provided between 8/30/24, at
4:33 p.m. and 8/31/24, at 2:59 p.m.
During an interview on 8/31/24, at 3;47 p.m. Resident R1, when asked if he felt the facility maintained
sufficient staff, stated, No. When asked if call lights took a long time to be answered, stated, They come,
and they say they will come back, but they don't. I've waited an hour. Resident R1 further stated that he has
been left soiled multiple times, and has had staff members ask him why he cannot take himself to the
bathroom.
During an interview on 8/31/24, at approximately 4:55 p.m. the Director of Nursing confirmed that the facility
failed to have sufficient nursing staff to provide nursing and related services to attain or maintain the
highest practicable physical, mental, and psychosocial well-being of five of eight residents.
