F 0658 Ensure services provided by the nursing facility meet professional standards of quality. Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Based on observation, clinical record review, review of facility documentation and staff interview, it was determined that the facility failed to adhere to acceptable standards of nursing practice related to medication administration for three of six residents observed during medication administration (Residents R13, R83, R88). The Pennsylvania Code, Title 49, Professional and Vocational Standards, State Board of Nursing, 21.11(b), General Functions of the Registered Nurse (RN), and 21.14(a), Administration of Drugs, indicated that the RN is fully responsible for all actions as a licensed nurse and is accountable to patients for the quality of care delivered, and administers medication ordered for the patient in the dosage and manner prescribed. The Pennsylvania Code, Title 49, Professional and Vocational Standards, State Board of Nursing, 21.145(a)(b), Functions of the Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN), indicated that the LPN functions as a member of the health-care team by exercising sound nursing judgement based on preparation, knowledge, experience in nursing and competency, and administers medication ordered for the patient.On February 2, 2026, at 9:53 a.m., observed that Employee E12, a Licensed Nurse, decanted Colace (Docusate) 100MG, two capsules; and Aspirin Chewable 81MG, one tablet for Resident R13. E12 crushed the Aspirin Chewable 81MG tablet in a plastic pouch. E12 opened the Colace (Docusate) capsules and poured the medication into a dispenser- cup. E12 poured the crushed Aspirin Chewable 81MG tablet into the same dispenser cup which had the Colace medication. E12 mixed all the medications with one and half teaspoon of apple sauce and administered half of the mixture to R13 by mouth; and quickly discarded the remaining medications in the dispenser-cup, by throwing it away into the trash can, in R13's room, before being prevented from discarding the half quantity of the medications for R 13.On February 2, 2026, at 9:59 a.m., observed that Employee E12, the Licensed Nurse, decanted Aspirin Chewable tablet 81MG, one tablet; Sertraline HCl tablet 25 MG, three tablets; and Losartan Potassium tablet 100 MG, one tablet. E12 crushed all the medications in a plastic pouch and poured the medications into a plastic dispenser cup and mixed all with one and a half teaspoon of Apple sauce.E12 administered, half of the mixture to R83 by mouth; and initiated to throw away the remaining medications into the trash can in R83's room, but immediately being prevented from discarding the remaining medications, and enquired why did E12 want to discard half the quantity of medications without administering it to R 83; then only E12 did administer the remaining medications to R83.On February 2, 2026, at 10:07 a.m., reviewed the physician order for R13. It revealed an order dated August 30, 2018, to administer Aspirin Chewable tablet 81MG, one tablet. Review of physician order indicated an order dated August 7, 2024, to administer Colace (Docusate) 100MG, two capsules, do not crush or open Colace (Docusate) capsules, switch to tablets if crushing is needed.Reviewed literature, and it indicated as follows:Opening the Docusate Sodium capsule is not recommended due to the potential for throat irritation and the medication's unpleasant taste. Additionally, altering the capsule's form could affect the medication's absorption and efficacy. If the physician has ordered not to open the Colace Capsule, the nurse should follow this instruction to ensure patient safety and medication effectiveness. If the nurse intends to crush the Docusate use tablet form, they should consult with a healthcare provider for guidance on safe usage and potential alternatives.Administering only half the quantity of Docusate sodium to a patient can lead to insufficient stool softening, resulting in harder stools that may cause straining or fecal impaction. The medication's primary function is to soften stool, making it easier to pass, and if not enough is administered, it may not achieve the desired effect, potentially causing discomfort and complications. Therefore, it is crucial for nurses to ensure that the correct dosage is administered to prevent these consequences.Administering only half the quantity of Aspirin 81 can lead to reduced effectiveness in preventing Residents Affected - Few (continued on next page) FORM CMS-2567 (02/99) Previous Versions Obsolete Event ID: Facility ID: 395545 If continuation sheet Page 4 of 22 Printed: 05/15/2026 Form Approved OMB No. 0938-0391 Department of Health & Human Services Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services STATEMENT OF DEFICIENCIES AND PLAN OF CORRECTION (X1) PROVIDER/SUPPLIER/CLIA IDENTIFICATION NUMBER: (X2) MULTIPLE CONSTRUCTION 395545 B.

F 0658 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Few heart attacks and strokes. Aspirin works by reducing blood clot formation, and a lower dose may not provide the same protective benefits. Therefore, it is crucial to ensure that the correct dosage is administered to avoid adverse effects and maintain the medication's therapeutic efficacy.At the time the finding the same was confirmed with E12.On February 2, 2026, at 10:11 a.m., reviewed the physician order for R83. It revealed an order dated March 18, 2025 to administer by mouth Aspirin Chewable tablet 81MG, one tablet, related to Cerebral Infraction; an order dated March 4, 2025, to administer by mouth, Sertraline HCl tablet 25 MG, three tablets, for Major Depressive Disorder; and an order dated May 8, 2023, to administer by mouth, Losartan Potassium tablet 100 MG, one tablet, related to Hypertension.Reviewed literature, and it indicated as follows:Administering only half the quantity of Aspirin 81 can lead to increased risk of bleeding and reduced effectiveness in preventing heart attacks and strokes. Aspirin works by reducing blood clot formation, and a lower dose may not provide the same protective benefits. Therefore, it is crucial to ensure that the correct dosage is administered to avoid adverse effects and maintain the medication's therapeutic efficacy.Administering only half the quantity of Sertraline HCl can lead to inadequate treatment of symptoms, such as depression or anxiety. It can also cause increased risk of side effects, including gastrointestinal issues, sleep disturbances, and mood changes. It is crucial for healthcare providers to ensure that patients receive the appropriate dosage of their medications to avoid these consequences.Administering only half the prescribed dosage of losartan can lead to ineffective antihypertensive treatment, which may result in high blood pressure and increase the risk of stroke. The reason for this consequence is that losartan is a first-line treatment for hypertension, and its effectiveness is directly related to the dosage. Administering a lower dose than prescribed can compromise the medication's ability to lower blood pressure effectively, potentially leading to serious health risks.At the time the finding the same was confirmed with E12.On February 3, 2026, at 8:20 a.m., reviewed the physician order for R88.The physician order dated January 21, 2026, indicated an order to administer Insulin Aspart Injection Solution 100 UNIT/ML (Insulin Aspart), Inject 15 unit subcutaneously with meals related to Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus Without Complications; administer within 15 minutes of meals. The physician order dated August 30, 2025, indicated to administer Insulin Aspart Injection Solution 100 UNIT/ML (Insulin Aspart), Inject as per sliding scale: if 150 - 200 = 2 units; 201 - 250 = 4 units; 251 - 300 = 6 units; 301 - 350 = 8 units; 351 - 400 = 10 units, subcutaneously with meals for Insulin-Dependent Diabetes Mellitus (IDDM), administer within 15 minutes of meals.On February 3, 2026, at 8:27 a.m., observed that E13, a Licensed Nurse checked the Blood Sugar (BS) level of R88, and the BS was 218. E13 stated that R88 would get 15 units of Insulin Aspart Injection Solution, and additionally per the sliding scale order, four units of Insulin Aspart Injection Solution 100 UNIT/ML totaling 19 units of Insulin Aspart Injection Solution. On February 3, 2026, at 8:29 a.m., observed that E13 drew Insulin Aspart Injection Solution 100 UNIT/ML. E13 was going to inject the drawn Insulin Aspart Injection Solution to R88, but prevented before injecting it, requested E13 to recheck how many units of Insulin Aspart Injection Solution were drawn in the syringe. E13 rechecked the syringe and found that only 16 units of Insulin Aspart Injection Solution was drawn in the syringe instead of the ordered 19 units of Insulin Aspart Injection Solution. Then, E13 redrew additional 3 units of Insulin Aspart Injection Solution to make the total drawn unit of Insulin Aspart Injection Solution as 19 units.On February 3, 2026, at 8:31 a.m., reviewed literature and it indicated that underdosing Insulin Aspart (administering 16 units instead of the ordered 19 units) primarily results in hyperglycemia (high blood sugar), because the patient is receiving less fast-acting medication than needed to manage their glucose levels, particularly around mealtimes.

E12 crushed the Aspirin Chewable 81MG tablet in a plastic pouch. E12 opened the Colace (Docusate) capsules and poured the medication into a dispenser- cup. E12 poured the crushed Aspirin Chewable 81MG tablet into the same dispenser cup which had the Colace medication. E12 mixed all the medications with one and half teaspoon of apple sauce and administered half of the mixture to R13 by mouth; and quickly discarded the remaining medications in the dispenser-cup, by throwing it away into the trash can, in R13's room, before being prevented from discarding the half quantity of the medications for R 13.On February 2, 2026, at 9:59 a.m., observed that Employee E12, the Licensed Nurse, decanted Aspirin Chewable tablet 81MG, one tablet; Sertraline HCl tablet 25 MG, three tablets; and Losartan Potassium tablet 100 MG, one tablet.

It revealed an order dated August 30, 2018, to administer Aspirin Chewable tablet 81MG, one tablet. Review of physician order indicated an order dated August 7, 2024, to administer Colace (Docusate) 100MG, two capsules, do not crush or open Colace (Docusate) capsules, switch to tablets if crushing is needed.Reviewed literature, and it indicated as follows:Opening the Docusate Sodium capsule is not recommended due to the potential for throat irritation and the medication's unpleasant taste. Additionally, altering the capsule's form could affect the medication's absorption and efficacy. If the physician has ordered not to open the Colace Capsule, the nurse should follow this instruction to ensure patient safety and medication effectiveness. If the nurse intends to crush the Docusate use tablet form, they should consult with a healthcare provider for guidance on safe usage and potential alternatives.Administering only half the quantity of Docusate sodium to a patient can lead to insufficient stool softening, resulting in harder stools that may cause straining or fecal impaction. The medication's primary function is to soften stool, making it easier to pass, and if not enough is administered, it may not achieve the desired effect, potentially causing discomfort and complications. Therefore, it is crucial for nurses to ensure that the correct dosage is administered to prevent these consequences.Administering only half the quantity of Aspirin 81 can lead to reduced effectiveness in preventing heart attacks and strokes. Aspirin works by reducing blood clot formation, and a lower dose may not provide the same protective benefits. Therefore, it is crucial to ensure that the correct dosage is administered to avoid adverse effects and maintain the medication's therapeutic efficacy.At the time the finding the same was confirmed with E12.On February 2, 2026, at 10:11 a.m., reviewed the physician order for R83.

Aspirin works by reducing blood clot formation, and a lower dose may not provide the same protective benefits. Therefore, it is crucial to ensure that the correct dosage is administered to avoid adverse effects and maintain the medication's therapeutic efficacy.Administering only half the quantity of Sertraline HCl can lead to inadequate treatment of symptoms, such as depression or anxiety. It can also cause increased risk of side effects, including gastrointestinal issues, sleep disturbances, and mood changes. It is crucial for healthcare providers to ensure that patients receive the appropriate dosage of their medications to avoid these consequences. Administering only half the prescribed dosage of losartan can lead to ineffective antihypertensive treatment, which may result in high blood pressure and increase the risk of stroke. The reason for this consequence is that losartan is a first-line treatment for hypertension, and its effectiveness is directly related to the dosage. Administering a lower dose than prescribed can compromise the medication's ability to lower blood pressure effectively, potentially leading to serious health risks.At the time the finding the same was confirmed with E12.On February 3, 2026, at 8:20 a.m., reviewed the physician order for R88.The physician order dated January 21, 2026, indicated an order to administer Insulin Aspart Injection Solution 100 UNIT/ML (Insulin Aspart), Inject 15 unit subcutaneously with meals related to Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus Without Complications; administer within 15 minutes of meals. The physician order dated August 30, 2025, indicated to administer Insulin Aspart Injection Solution 100 UNIT/ML (Insulin Aspart), Inject as per sliding scale: if 150 - 200 = 2 units; 201 - 250 = 4 units; 251 - 300 = 6 units; 301 - 350 = 8 units; 351 - 400 = 10 units, subcutaneously with meals for Insulin-Dependent Diabetes Mellitus (IDDM), administer within 15 minutes of meals.On February 3, 2026, at 8:27 a.m., observed that E13, a Licensed Nurse checked the Blood Sugar (BS) level of R88, and the BS was 218. E13 stated that R88 would get 15 units of Insulin Aspart Injection Solution, and additionally per the sliding scale order, four units of Insulin Aspart Injection Solution 100 UNIT/ML totaling 19 units of Insulin Aspart Injection Solution. On February 3, 2026, at 8:29 a.m., observed that E13 drew Insulin Aspart Injection Solution 100 UNIT/ML. E13 was going to inject the drawn Insulin Aspart Injection Solution to R88, but prevented before injecting it, requested E13 to recheck how many units of Insulin Aspart Injection Solution were drawn in the syringe. E13 rechecked the syringe and found that only 16 units of Insulin Aspart Injection Solution was drawn in the syringe instead of the ordered 19 units of Insulin Aspart Injection Solution. Then, E13 redrew additional 3 units of Insulin Aspart Injection Solution to make the total drawn unit of Insulin Aspart Injection Solution as 19 units.On February 3, 2026, at 8:31 a.m., reviewed literature and it indicated that underdosing Insulin Aspart (administering 16 units instead of the ordered 19 units) primarily results in hyperglycemia (high blood sugar), because the patient is receiving less fast-acting medication than needed to manage their glucose levels, particularly around mealtimes. And it may cause increased thirst, frequent urination, headache, blurry vision, fatigue, and drowsiness etc.At the time of the finding the same was confirmed with E13.The facility incurred a medication error rate of 21.43%.Pa Code:211.12(d)(1)(2)(5) Nursing Services.

F 0760 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Few On February 3, 2026, at 8:27 a.m., observed that E13, a Licensed Nurse checked the Blood Sugar (BS) level of R88, and the BS was 218. E13 stated that R88 would get 15 units of Insulin Aspart Injection Solution, and additionally per the sliding scale order, four units of Insulin Aspart Injection Solution 100 UNIT/ML totaling 19 units of Insulin Aspart Injection Solution. On February 3, 2026, at 8:29 a.m., observed that E13 drew Insulin Aspart Injection Solution 100 UNIT/ML. E13 was going to inject the drawn Insulin Aspart Injection Solution to R88, but prevented before injecting it, requested E13 to recheck how many units of Insulin Aspart Injection Solution were drawn in the syringe. E13 rechecked the syringe and found that only 16 units of Insulin Aspart Injection Solution was drawn in the syringe instead of the ordered 19 units of Insulin Aspart Injection Solution. Then, E13 redrew additional 3 units of Insulin Aspart Injection Solution to make the total drawn unit of Insulin Aspart Injection Solution as 19 units. On February 3, 2026, at 8:31 a.m., reviewed literature and it indicated that underdosing Insulin Aspart (administering 16 units instead of the ordered 19 units) primarily results in hyperglycemia (high blood sugar), because the patient is receiving less fast-acting medication than needed to manage their glucose levels, particularly around mealtimes. And it may cause increased thirst, frequent urination, headache, blurry vision, fatigue, and drowsiness etc. At the time of the finding the same was confirmed with E13.
