A review of a quarterly Minimum Data Set assessment (Minimum Data Set - a federally mandated standardized assessment conducted at specific intervals to plan resident care) dated August 2, 2024, revealed her to be cognitively intact with a BIMS (Brief Interview for Mental Status - a mandatory tool used to screen and identify the cognitive condition of residents upon admission into a long-term care facility) score of 14 indicating that the resident is cognitively intact. A review of nurse's note dated August 9, 2024, at 2:26 PM, revealed Resident 9 complained of burning/itching to the vaginal area, and that the nurse practioner was made aware. A Physician's order dated August 9, 2024, included an order for Diflucan (an oral antifungal medicine that treats and prevents fungal infections in various parts of the body) 200 mg one time dose by mouth. A review of Resident 9's August 2024 medication administration record (MAR) revealed that Diflucan 200 mg by mouth was administered to Resident 9 on August 9, 2024, at 5:55 PM. A review of nurse's note dated August 11, 2024, at 6:31 AM, revealed Resident 9 received Diflucan on August 9, 2024, at 6 PM. The Resident was allergic to Diflucan as listed in her chart.

F 0658 Level of Harm - Actual harm Residents Affected - Few Resident approached the writer with signs and symptoms of an allergic reaction, including pruritic circular rash areas located on left upper extremity, posterior trunk (back side of the body), anterior (front side of the body) trunk, bilateral legs. Resident stated she first noticed the areas on August 10, 2024, shortly after waking, and was told that nursing staff would look into getting an order for hydrocortisone cream due to pruritus (itchy rash). It was noted that the Supervisor assessed the Resident as well, multiple failed attempts were made to reach the attending Physician, and noted to notify oncoming staff (7 AM to 3 PM) and encourage staff to contact attending Physician for appropriate orders for allergic reaction. A review of a nurse's note dated August 11, 2024 at 11:20 AM, revealed that the licensed nurse called the Attending Physician regarding the Resident's reaction to Diflucan given the prior night at 6:00 PM. The Physician ordered Benadryl (antihistamine medication) 50 mg three times a day for one day and Hydrocortisone (steroid cream) 1% for three days. Review of the MAR revealed that Benadryl 25 mg, give two tabs (50 mg) was administered to Resident 9 on August 11, 2024, at 4:00 PM. There was no evidence at the time of the survey that the Resident was given the additional two doses of the Benadryl that was Physician ordered. A review of a facility investigation dated August 9, 2024, at 5:00 PM, revealed Resident 9 had a documented allergy to the medication Diflucan. The medication was ordered by the Nurse Practioner on August 9, 2024. The Resident's care plan and the electronic face sheet indicated that the Resident had the noted allergy, however, when a medication is entered into the electronic clinical record as a verbal Physician order, the expected warning from the system did not appear. Employee 3 (LPN) entered the Physicians order for the diflucan into the electronic physician's ordering system without checking for an allergy. The medication was scheduled to be given Friday August 9, 2024, at 5:00 PM. The medication needed to be accessed from the electronic emergency system (PYXIS) located on the B2 resident unit. Employee 5 ( LPN) accessed the Diflucan 200 mg tablet from the PYXIS system and brought it to the floor. She did not check for allergies as the PYXIS system did not alert the nurse of the noted allergy prior to removing the medication from the machine. Employee 4 (LPN) administered the medication to the Resident August 9, 2024, at 5:55 PM. This Employee failed to check the Resident's allergies prior to administering the medication. A review of a witness statement dated August 9, 2024 at 12:30 PM, Employee 3 (LPN) stated, I received the order for Diflucan and entered it into the system. I asked another LPN to pull the med for me (from the PYXIS). I didn't verify the resident's allergies upon receiving the order was entered. I passed the medication on to the next shift (3 PM to 11 PM). A review of a witness statement dated August 9, 2024, (no time indicated) Employee 5 (LPN) stated, [Employee 3] asked me to pull the medication (Diflucan) from the PYXIS and bring it over to him. I pulled the med, no warning/alert was given in the PYXIS. Took the med over to [Employee 2 (LPN)]. I did not look at the allergies prior to pulling the med out of the machine.
