the resident received an anticonvulsant medication during the seven-day assessment period.Physician's
orders for Resident 3 dated May 1, 2025, included an order for the resident to receive 300 milligrams (mg)
of Gabapentin two times a day for diabetic neuropathy (nerve damage that can cause pain, numbness,
tingling, and weakness in the hands and feet, and sometimes other parts of the body). The resident's
Medication Administration Record (MAR) for May 2025 revealed that the resident received Gabapentin
twice a day from May 1 through 28, 2025.A quarterly MDS assessment for Resident 3, dated May 24, 2025,
revealed that Section N0415K1 was not checked, indicating that the resident did not receive any
anticonvulsant medications during the seven days of the assessment period. Physician's orders for

times a day for neuropathy. The resident's Medication Administration Record (MAR) for May 2025 revealed
that the resident received Pregabalin three times a day from May 1 through 31, 2025.A quarterly MDS
assessment for Resident 38, dated May 9, 2025, revealed that Section N0415K1 was not checked,
indicating that the resident did not receive any anticonvulsant medications during the seven days of the
assessment period. Physician's orders for Resident 53 dated May 1, 2025, included an order for the
resident to have 1% Silvadene External Cream (antibiotic) applied to the sacrum gluteal fold (horizontal
crease or fold located at the base of the buttocks) every day and evening shift for wounds. The resident's
Treatment Administration Records (TAR's) for May 2025 revealed that the resident received Silvadene
External Cream every day and evening from May 2 through 10, 2025.A quarterly MDS assessment for
Resident 53, dated May 9, 2025, revealed that Section N0415F1 was not checked, indicating that the
resident did not receive any antibiotic medications during the seven days of the assessment period. An
interview with the Director of Nursing on July 30, 2025, at 2:59 p.m. confirmed that assessments for
Residents 3, 38, and 53 were coded incorrectly.28 Pa. Code 211.5(f) Medical records.

Develop the complete care plan within 7 days of the comprehensive assessment; and prepared, reviewed,
and revised by a team of health professionals.
Based on review of clinical records, as well as staff interviews, it was determined that the facility failed to
ensure that a resident's care plan was updated/revised to reflect the resident's specific care needs for two
of 28 residents reviewed (Residents 4 and 9). A facility policy for Care Plan Revisions Upon Status Change
dated April 7, 2025, indicated that the comprehensive care plan will be reviewed, and revised as necessary,
when a resident experiences a status change. A significant change Minimum Data Set (MDS) assessment
(a mandated assessment of a resident's care needs and abilities) for Resident 4 dated May 2, 2025,
indicated that the resident was cognitively intact, required assistance with daily care needs, and had
diagnoses that included Multiple Sclerosis (disease in which the immune system eats away at the
protective covering of nerves). The Care plan for Resident 4 dated October 13, 2023, indicated that the
resident was receiving diuretic therapy (water pills, to increase urine production and help the body eliminate
excess fluid and sodium). Review of the Medication Administration Record (MAR) for Resident 4 dated July
2025, revealed no documented evidence that the resident was receiving a diuretic medication. An interview
with Licensed Practical Nurse Assessment Coordinator on July 31, 2025, at 9:53 am confirmed that
Resident 4 was not receiving diuretic medications and that Resident 4's care plan should have been
revised to reflect that, however it was not. An admission MDS assessment for Resident 9 dated July 2,
2025, indicated that the resident was cognitively intact, required assistance with daily care needs, and had
diagnoses that included necrotizing fasciitis (a severe bacterial infection that rapidly destroys skin, fat, and
muscle tissue).The Care plan for Resident 9 dated July 3, 2025, indicated that the resident was receiving
anticoagulant therapy (medications that prevent blood clots from forming or existing clots from getting
larger).Review of the MAR for Resident 9 revealed that the resident had not received any anticoagulant
medications since July 8, 2025.An interview with the Nursing Home Administration on July 31, 2025, at
12:04 p.m. revealed that the Resident 9 was no longer receiving anticoagulant medication and that his care
plan should have been revised to reflect that, however, it was not. 28 Pa. Code 211.12(d)(5) Nursing

milligram (mg) capsules of Gabapentin (a medication used to treat nerve pain) daily and one 300 mg
capsule of Gabapentin at bedtime. Observations during the medication administration on July 31, 2025, at
8:24 a.m. revealed that Licensed Practical Nurse 1 obtained Resident 37's blister pack (commonly used as
unit-dose packaging for pharmaceutical tablets, capsules or lozenges) containing the resident's
Gabapentin. The label on the blister pack containing the Gabapentin revealed that the resident was to
receive one 300 mg capsule of Gabapentin daily and two 300 mg capsules of Gabapentin at bedtime.
Interview with Licensed Practical Nurse 1 at the time of observation confirmed that the label on the blister
pack containing the resident's Gabapentin did not match the resident's current orders for Gabapentin and
that there should have been a change in direction sticker (a label used to indicate that a change has been
made to the instructions or directions for something, often medication or a process) on the blister pack
containing the resident's Gabapentin. Interview with the Director of Nursing on July 31, 2025, at 1:48 p.m.
