or potential for actual harm
Based on review of clinical records and job descriptions, as well as staff interviews, it was determined that
the facility failed to follow pressure ulcer treatment recommendations from a wound consultation for one of
four residents reviewed (Resident 3).Findings include: The facility's job description for the wound care
coordinator, dated July 2024, indicates that the wound care coordinator maintains documentation and care
coordination in the electronic medical record for each resident and coordinates care with the attending
physician and rounds with the in-house wound physician regularly.An admission Minimum Data Set (MDS)
assessment (a mandated assessment of a resident's abilities and care needs) for Resident 3, dated July
12, 2025, indicated that the resident was cognitively impaired, required assistance for her care needs, and
had diagnoses that included atherosclerotic heart disease (hardening of your arteries from plaque building
up gradually inside them). Census data revealed the resident was discharged on July 25, 2025.Physician's

Provide pharmaceutical services to meet the needs of each resident and employ or obtain the services of a
licensed pharmacist.
Based on review of facility policy, review of clinical records, and interview with staff, it was determined that
the facility failed to provide pharmaceutical services to ensure accurate receiving, dispensing and
administration of medication to meet the needs of a resident for one of four residents reviewed (Resident
2).A facility policy for Medication Administration dated July 11, 2025, indicated that medications are
administered as prescribed in accordance with Manufacturers' specifications, good nursing principles and
practices and only by persons legally authorized to do so. Personnel authorized to administer medications
do so only after they have familiarized themselves with the medication. An admission Minimum Data Set
(MDS) assessment (a federally mandated assessment of the resident's abilities and care needs) for
Resident 2 dated April 20, 2025, indicated that the resident was moderately cognitively impaired, required
assistance from staff for daily care needs, and had diagnosis that included heart failure. Review of clinical
records revealed she was discharged from the facility on May 17, 2025.Physician's orders for Resident 2
dated April 16, 2025, indicated that the resident was to receive 40 milligrams (mg) of rosuvastatin calcium
(medication used to lower the amount of cholesterol in the blood) at bedtime for hyperlipidemia (abnormally
high levels of lipids (fats) in the bloodstream).A medication error report for Resident 2 dated May 12, 2025,
indicated that the medication card delivered to the facility from the pharmacy was labeled as rosuvastatin
calcium, however, it contained coumadin (a blood thinner) tablets instead of the labeled rosuvastatin
calcium tablets and Resident 2 was administered coumadin for several days before the error was noted.An
Advanced Practice Nurse's note for Resident 2 dated May 12, 2025, indicated that on May 11, 2025, at
5:49 p.m. she was made aware that a medication ordered for Resident 2 was packaged wrong from the
pharmacy, that Resident 2 had received Coumadin instead of rosuvastatin calcium, and orders were given
to obtain lab work including a Prothrombin Time (PT-test used to help detect and diagnose a bleeding
disorder or excessive clotting disorder), International Normalized Ratio (INR-used to monitor how well the
blood-thinning medication is working to prevent blood clots) and a complete blood count. A nurse's note for
Resident 2 dated May 12, 2025, at 1:15 p.m. revealed that staff was made aware of a medication error that
identified coumadin pills were in a medication card sent to the facility from the pharmacy that was labeled
as rosuvastatin calcium and was administered to the resident. The nurse immediately reached out to the
physician. The resident's lab work that was ordered and drawn on the morning of May 12, 2025, was
reviewed. The resident's INR was elevated and the physician ordered Vitamin K (can reverse the effects of
blood thinners likes coumadin), and to check the resident's INR for three days. Interview with the Nursing
Home Administrator on August 5, 2025, at 3:23 p.m. revealed that Resident 2 did receive that wrong
medication for several days due to the pharmacy packaging the medication incorrectly. The facility ended
their contract with that pharmacy on July 31, 2025, due to a breach in contract for services.28 Pa. Code

Ensure that residents are free from significant medication errors.
Level of Harm - Actual harm
Based on a review of clinical records, as well as staff interviews, it was determined that the facility failed to
ensure that residents were free from significant medication errors for one of four residents reviewed
(Resident 2) resulting in a critically abnormal blood clotting time.Findings include:An admission Minimum
Data Set (MDS) assessment (a federally mandated assessment of the resident's abilities and care needs)
for Resident 2 dated April 20, 2025, indicated that the resident was moderately cognitively impaired,
required assistance from staff for daily care needs, and had diagnoses that included heart failure. Review of
clinical records revealed she was discharged from the facility on May 17, 2025. A medication error report for
Resident 2 revealed that on May 11, 2025, a medication discrepancy was identified. The medication nurse
realized that the pills in the resident's medication card labeled by the pharmacy as rosuvastatin calcium (a
statin medication used to lower bad cholesterol and triglycerides) was actually Warfarin (coumadin-a blood
thinner) tablets and not rosuvastatin calcium. Resident 2 was administered the coumadin tablets for several
days before the error was noted. A nursing note for Resident 2, dated May 11, 2025 at 6:53 p.m. revealed
that a medication discrepancy was identified. The resident is alert and appears at baseline. The physician
was notified and new orders were received to obtain a CBC (a common blood test that provides information
about different types of cells in your blood: red blood cells, white blood cells, and platelets) and PT/INR (a
blood test that measures how long it takes for your blood to clot, assessing the effectiveness of your body's
blood clotting process) in the morning. A nursing note for Resident 2, dated May 12, 2025, at 1:15 p.m.
revealed that this nurse was made aware of the medication error of Warfarin pills in a medication card
labeled Rosuvastatin Calcium 40mg, sent from pharmacy. This nurse immediately reached out to the
physician who reviewed the resident's lab work drawn this morning. The resident's INR was 7.0 (the target
range is typically between 2.0 and 3.0 for most patients taking warfarin and anything higher indicates an
increased risk of bleeding because the blood is taking too long to clot). The physician gave an order for 5
milligrams (mg) STAT of Phytonadione Oral (Vitamin K) and to check the INR daily for three days. This
nurse immediately called family and explained the situation at hand. Review of Resident 2's Medication
Administration Record for May, 2025, revealed that the resident received 5 mg of Vitamin K orally on May
12, 13, and 14, 2025. A nurse's note for Resident 2 dated May 12, 2025, at 2:08 p.m. revealed that staff
spoke to the director of the pharmacy regarding the wrong pills being labeled as rosuvastatin calcium. The
card was to be replaced with a new card containing the correct medication and a representative from the
pharmacy was to retrieve the wrong medication card. There was no documented evidence that the facility
investigated the error to determine if other medication cards in the facility had been labeled incorrectly by
the pharmacy. Interview with the Nursing Home Administrator on August 5, 2025, at 3:23 p.m. confirmed
that Resident 2 received the wrong medication for several days due to the pharmacy packaging the
medication incorrectly. The facility ended their contract with that pharmacy on July 31, 2025, due to a
breach in contract for services. 28 Pa. Code 211.12(d)(1)(5) Nursing Services.
