Review of a physician order dated December 17, 2024, noted an order for Torsemide diuretic- used to treat
fluid retention/edema) 60 mg by mouth every 24 hours as needed for edema for 3 days.
Residents Affected - Some
A review of Resident A1's clinical records revealed a physician order dated December 17, 2024, for
Torsemide 60 mg (diuretic- used to treat fluid retention/edema) by mouth every 24 hours as needed for
edema for three days.
Further review of Resident A1's December 2024 Medication Administration Record from December 17,
through December 20, 2024, revealed the following:
December 17, 2024, no edema was noted on the evening or night nursing shift
December 18, 2024, there was no edema noted on the day shift
December 18, 2024, edema was noted on the evening and night shift
December 19, 2024, edema was noted on the day, evening, and night shift
December 20, 2024, edema was noted on the day, evening, and night shift.
Between December 17, 2024, and December 20, 2024, nursing documentation indicated that edema was
present on multiple shifts, yet the medication was never administered. Despite the presence of edema,
there was no documentation of a nursing assessment describing the extent or location of the edema, nor
was there any evidence that the physician was notified to clarify whether the medication should have been
given. The order required administration of Torsemide every 24 hours if edema was present, but the facility
failed to follow this directive.
Interview with the administrator on January 23, 2025, at approximately 11:00 AM confirmed that the facility
failed to ensure that Resident A1 received treatment and care in accordance with professional standards of
practice and that physician orders were followed as ordered.
Additionally, Resident A1 had a scheduled Pulmonary Medicine appointment on December 23, 2024, at
11:00 AM. A review of the clinical record found no evidence that transportation was arranged, and the
resident did not attend the appointment. An interview with the administrator on January 23, 2025, at
approximately 11:00 AM confirmed the facility failed to coordinate the necessary transportation, resulting in
a missed medical appointment.
The facility failed to ensure that Resident A1 received treatment and care in accordance with professional
standards of practice and physician orders, potentially impacting the resident's health and well-being.
