Level of Harm - Minimal harm
or potential for actual harm
Based on clinical record review and staff interview, it was determined that the facility failed to provide
physician ordered treatment for wounds for four of five residents reviewed (Residents CR1, 1, 2, and 4).
Findings include: Clinical record review for Resident 1 revealed a physician's order dated July 26, 2025, for
the resident to have treatment to a Stage 3 (full thickness skin loss that extends to the fat layer) of the right
heel daily cleansing with a normal saline solution (NSS), pat dry, apply skin prep to the wound and leave
open to air. There was no evidence this treatment was completed on September 11, and 17, 2025. Closed
clinical record review for Resident CR1 revealed a physician's order dated August 25, 2025, for the resident
to have a left lateral foot wound cleaned with NSS and have a betadine (antiseptic) soaked cover, pads, and
gauze applied and covered with a bandage wrap every three days. The resident also had an order dated
August 25, 2025, to receive treatment to venous ulcers (due to poor circulation) on his right foot first toe, left
foot third toe, and the left heel to cleanse with NSS, paint with betadine, leave open to air, and to be done
daily. Review of Resident CR1's treatment record for August 2025, revealed the resident was not
documented as receiving the treatment on August 31, 2025, as ordered/scheduled. Clinical record review
for Resident 2 revealed a physician's order dated September 19, 2025, for the resident to have treatment
with negative pressure wound therapy (a vacuum to remove fluid and debris from wounds to promote
healing) continuously, with a treatment to include the wound cleansed with wound cleanser, gauze placed
into the wound, apply skin prep to intact skin around the wound, apply a dressing and secure the vacuum
tubing per the manufacturer's guidelines every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday. Review of Resident 2's
treatment record for September 2025, revealed the resident was not documented as receiving the
treatment as ordered on Friday, September 26, 2025. Clinical record review for Resident 4 revealed a
physician's order dated September 10, 2025, for the resident to have treatment completed to a pressure
ulcer (wound of the skin due to prolonged pressure to an area) on the resident's coccyx to be cleansed with
normal saline and apply calcium alginate (cream used for wound treatment), and cover with foam dressing
every day. Review of Resident 4's treatment record for September 2025, revealed no evidence that the
resident received the treatment as ordered on September 15, 19, 22, 29, 30, 2025. Further review for
Resident 4 revealed a physician's order dated September 8, 2025, for negative pressure wound therapy
continuously to the resident's left hip with a treatment to the wound itself including cleansing the wound with
cleanser, placing foam into the wound, covering the wound with a dressing, and securing the wound
vacuum tube every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday. Review of the resident's treatment record for
September 2025, revealed no evidence the treatment was completed as ordered on September 15, 19, 22,
or 29, 2025. A nursing note dated September 30, 2025, at 5:17 PM noted the resident's wound vacuum had
been alerting full canister from the start of shift and the resident indicated the wound nurse came to his
room that morning to change it but didn't have the supplies and was told the wound nurse had to order the
supplies. The information regarding no evidence of the above

noted treatments was reviewed with the Director of Nursing and Nursing Home Administrator on October 1,
2025, at 3:30 PM. There was no additional information to indicate whether the treatments were completed
as ordered or that the resident had refused or was not available for the treatment to be completed. The
Director of Nursing indicated Resident 4 utilized a different negative pressure machine for his wound than
others in the facility and supply delivery was delayed, which may have impacted Resident 4's treatments. 28

**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
review of select facility policies, clinical record review, and resident and staff interview, it was determined
that the facility failed to provide timely medications to one of five residents reviewed (Resident 3) and failed
to obtain and provide medications for one of five residents reviewed (Resident CR1). Findings include:
Review of the facility's current policy entitled Medication Administration General Guidelines, revealed it is
the facility's policy that medications are administered within 60 minutes of scheduled times, except before
or after meal orders, which are administered based on mealtimes. In an interview with Resident 3 on
October 1, 2025, at 3:14 PM the resident indicated she sometimes needs to tell staff she needs her
medications because they are late. Resident 3 stated she used to get her morning medication closer to
8:00 AM but it has been closer to 10:30 AM at times, and that she believes her medication times were
going to change because staff were working on two floors. Review of Resident 3's medication
administration record for September 2025, revealed the following medications administered outside the
60-minute window of the scheduled administration time. Breo Ellipta Inhalation Aerosol Powder (a
maintenance medication to assist with breathing conditions) scheduled for 8:00 AM was administered late
between 10:00 and 11:00 AM on September 26, 27, 28, and 29, 2025. Diltiazem HCL Extended Release
(used to treat blood pressure) scheduled for 8:00 AM was administered late between 10:00 and 11:00 AM
on September 26, 27, 28, and 29, 2025. This medication was also ordered to be held for the resident for a
systolic blood pressure (top/upper number, pressure when your heart beats) less that 90, and a heart rate
less than 50. There was no evidence that Resident 3's blood pressure or heart rate was checked prior to
the administration of this medication on September 27, 28, 29 or 30, 2025. Eliquis (blood thinner)
scheduled for administration two times a day at 8:00 AM and 8:00 PM was administered late between 10:00
and 11:00 AM on September 26, 27, 28, and 29, 2025, and too early for the second dose between 5:00 PM
and 6:00 PM on the same days the morning dose was administered late on September 26, 27, and 28,
2025. The resident was not documented as being administered, the evening dose on September 29, or the
morning or evening dose on September 30, 2025. There was no evidence to indicate the resident refused
or was not available for staff to administer the medication. Metoprolol Succinate Extended Release (blood
pressure and heart medication) scheduled to be given one time a day at 8:00 AM was administered late
between 10:00 and 11:00 AM on September 26, 27, 28, 29, 2025. The medication was also ordered to be
held for a systolic blood pressure less than 90 and a heart rate less than 50. There was no evidence that
Resident 3's blood pressure or heart rate was checked prior to the administration of this medication on
September 27, 28, 29 or 30, 2025. Potassium Chloride Extended Release (mineral supplement to maintain
fluid balance and heart and kidney function) scheduled to me administered three times a day at 6:00 AM,
2:00 PM, and 8:00 PM was not documented as administered for the 6:00 AM dose on September 16, and
24, and late between 9:00 AM and 10:00 AM on September 30th, 10:00 and 11:00 AM on September 26,
27, 28, 29, 2025. Resident 3 was then documented as receiving the next dose of the extended-release
medication within the scheduled time of 1:00 PM - 3:00 PM (one hour before/after scheduled 2:00 PM)
potentially leaving only 4 hours between doses. Tylenol (mild pain reliever) scheduled to be administered
two times a day at 8:00 AM and 8:00 PM was administered late between 10:00 and 11:00 AM on
September 26, 27, 28, 29, 2025, and the evening dose was documented as being administered early
between 5:00 and 6:00 PM on September 26, 27, and 28, 2025, three of the same days the morning dose
was administered late. The resident was not documented as being administered, the evening dose on
September 29, or the morning or evening dose on September 30, 2025. There was no evidence to indicate

resident refused or was not available for staff to administer the medication. In an interview with the Director
of Nursing on October 1, 2025, at 2:30 PM she indicated Resident 3 is permitted to self-administer
medications, but the time documented on the Medication Administration Record would be the time staff
provided the resident with the medication. Closed clinical record review for Resident CR1 revealed the
resident was re-admitted to the facility on [DATE], from the hospital where the resident was being treated
for a wound of the left foot and returned to the facility with a PICC line (flexible tube inserted into a vein
used for long-term intravenous medication administration). A facility physician history and physical note
dated August 22, 2025, at 8:02 PM indicated that Resident CR1 was admitted and treated at the hospital
for a left foot abscess, and was discharged from the hospital with Levofloxacin (potent, broad-spectrum
antibiotic used to treat bacterial infections), 750 milligrams to be given orally every 48 hours, and
Vancomycin (powerful antibiotic used for systemic infections throughout the body), to be given
intravenously (IV) every 24 hours until September 27, 2025. The physician's plan indicated to continue the
Vancomycin and Levofloxacin as directed. There was no evidence Resident CR1 was ordered Levofloxacin
or Vancomycin upon admission to the facility on August 22, 2025. Review of Resident CR1's physician
orders revealed Vancomycin as noted above was not ordered and administered until August 25, 2025, three
days later, and Levofloxacin was not ordered until August 27, 2025, and administered on August 28, 2025,
six days later. A follow up physician's note dated August 27, 2025, at 10:10 PM indicated that staff did not
transcribe the Vancomycin order because it was not clearly documented on the hospital discharge
instructions from the hospital and noted facility nursing staff contacted the provider on August 22, 2025,
indicating the resident had a PICC line and needed IV medication and was advised to talk to the hospital
discharging physician about which IV antibiotic, and noted the IV antibiotic was never transcribed and was
not given noting the resident missed two doses (August 23, and 24, 2025). The note did not address the
Levofloxacin not being ordered or administered. Results of a Vancomycin trough (lab measure obtained to
assess the concentration of the antibiotic in the bloodstream to ensure the drug is at a level high enough to
be effective and not too high to be toxic) ordered and obtained on August 25, 2025, revealed a level of 9
ug/ml (microgram/milliliter) below the desired minimum level of 10. Review of Resident CR1's hospital
discharge instructions revealed one page of the resident's medications and discharge instructions was
missing (page 9 of a 23-page document), of which facility staff indicated would have contained the IV
medication and the Levofloxacin. It could not be determined if the page was available upon the resident's
admission. Resident CR1 did not receive the antibiotics as noted above and noted by the physician on
August 22, 2025, upon admission to the facility to continue as part of the resident's plan of care. The above
findings regarding Resident 3's timing of medication administration, and Resident CR1's missed doses of
antibiotics were reviewed with the Nursing Home Administrator and Director of Nursing on October 1, 2025,
