Findings include:The facility's policy regarding intravenous catheter flushing, dated March 13, 2025, indicated that catheters were to be flushed at regular intervals to maintain patency, before and after administration of medications. Staff were to use only preservative free 0.9 % sodium chloride for saline flushes (a mixture of water and salt, with a salt concentration of 0.9%).An admission Minimum Data Set (MDS) assessment (a mandated assessment of a resident's abilities and care needs) for Resident 34, dated September 26, 2025, revealed that the resident was cognitively impaired, required assistance for care needs, received an antibiotic and intravenous medications, and had a diagnosis that included Osteomyelitis (an infection of the bone).Physician's orders for Resident 34, dated November 4, 2025, included an order for the resident to receive two grams (gm) of Ceftriaxone (an antibiotic) intravenously daily for five days.A review of Resident 34's Medication Administration Record (MAR), dated November 2025, revealed that staff administered the two gm of Ceftriaxone intravenously daily on November 4 and 5, 2025; however, there was no documented evidence that Resident 34's intravenous line was flushed with saline solution before and after the administration of the Ceftriaxone.

F 0699 Provide care or services that was trauma informed and/or culturally competent. Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Based on clinical record review and staff interview, it was determined that the facility failed to ensure that residents were assessed and received trauma-informed care to eliminate or mitigate triggers for residents with the diagnosis of Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) (a mental and behavioral disorder that develops related to a terrifying event) for one of 35 residents reviewed (Resident 8).Findings include: A Quarterly Minimum Data Set (MDS) assessment (a mandated assessment of a resident's abilities and care needs) for Resident 8, dated November 3, 2025, indicated that the resident was cognitively impaired, was dependent on staff for daily care needs, and had diagnoses that included depression, anxiety, and PTSD. A review of Resident 46's care plan, dated August 13, 2024, indicated that the resident had PTSD, anxiety, and Traumatic Brain Injury. There was no documented evidence the facility identified Resident 8's specific triggers that could re-traumatize the resident or implement measures as to how facility staff could prevent or minimize triggers from occurring. Interview with the Nursing Home Administrator on December 4, 2025, at 2:15 p.m. revealed that she believed Resident 8 did not trigger PTSD and if the doctor thought it was a real diagnosis the resident would have been reassessed for it quarterly.
