F 0684 Provide appropriate treatment and care according to orders, resident’s preferences and goals. 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 record review, and staff interview, it was determined that the facility failed to notify the physician of decreased Capillary Blood Glucose (CBG) levels per physician orders and failed to implement the facility's hypoglycemia protocol for two of four residents (Residents R65 and R66). Residents Affected - Few Findings include: Review of facility policy Hypoglycemia Protocol dated 1/2/25, indicated a CBG reading of less than 70 milligrams per deciliter (mg/dL) and symptomatic or a CBG of less than 60 mg/dL regardless of symptoms, hold all diabetic mediations and insulin until reviewed with physician, provide treatment, recheck CBG in 15 minutes, treat according to protocol, and notify physician. May repeat such administrations of this medication up to 2 times within 30 minutes time period in the event of an acute hypoglycemic episode. The Centers for Disease Control defines diabetes as: Diabetes Mellitus is a chronic (long-lasting) health condition that affects how your body turns food into energy. Most of the food you eat is broken down into sugar (also called glucose) and released into your bloodstream. When your blood sugar goes up, it signals your pancreas to release insulin. Insulin acts like a key to let the blood sugar into your body's cells for use as energy. If you have diabetes, your body either doesn't make enough insulin or can't use the insulin it makes as well as it should. When there isn't enough insulin or cells stop responding to insulin, too much blood sugar stays in your bloodstream. Over time, that can cause serious health problems, such as heart disease, vision loss, and kidney disease. Hypoglycemia is a condition that occurs when blood glucose is lower than normal, usually below 70 mg/dL. If left untreated, hypoglycemia may lead to weakness, confusion, unconsciousness, arrhythmias and even death. People with Diabetes Mellitus may be prescribed injectable insulin to assist in maintaining acceptable levels of CBG's. Review of the clinical records indicated Resident R65 was admitted to the facility on [DATE]. Review of Resident R65's MDS (Minimum Data Set, periodic assessment of resident care needs) dated 2/5/25, indicated diagnoses of depression, coronary artery disease (damage or disease in the heart's major blood vessels), and diabetes (a metabolic disorder in which the body has high sugar levels for prolonged periods of time). Review of a physician order dated 3/3/25, indicated to administer Humalog (a type of insulin) subcutaneously (beneath the skin into the fatty tissue layer) with meals, inject as per sliding scale: - If blood sugar is less than 70 call physician; - If 70 - 140 = 0 units; - 141 - 180 = 2 units; - 181 - 220 = 4 units; - 221 - 260 = 6 units; (continued on next page) FORM CMS-2567 (02/99) Previous Versions Obsolete Event ID: Facility ID: 395606 If continuation sheet Page 7 of 32 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 395606 B.
