(Resident 1) Findings include:Clinical record review revealed that Resident 1 had diagnoses that included
diabetes, history of sepsis, resistance to multiple antimicrobial drugs, dementia and chronic kidney disease.
The Minimum Data Set assessment dated [DATE], indicated that he had memory impairment. On January
19, 2026, a physician ordered for an endocrinologist to evaluate and treat the resident. On January 21,
2026, a nurse practitioner endocrinologist conducted an evaluation. Review of the endocrinologist's note
revealed that Resident 1 had diagnoses that included diabetes with hyperglycemia and neuropathy and
Stage IV chronic kidney disease. At that time, the endocrinologist made recommendations for laboratory
(lab) tests to be completed, including blood work to test his blood sugar levels and thyroid function. In
addition, the endocrinologist recommended a consultation by a nephrologist (kidney specialist). There was
no evidence that the lab tests had been ordered and/or completed as recommended by the endocrinologist.
In addition, there was no evidence that a consultation by a kidney specialist was ordered as recommended
by the endocrinologist. In an interview on February 4, 2026, at 12:27 p.m., the Administrator stated that the
recommendations from the endocrinologist had not been acted upon nor addressed by the resident's
attending physician. CFR 483.25 Quality of CarePreviously cited 7/3/25.28 Pa. Code 211.12(d)(1)(3)(5)
