What the inspector wrote

This survey cited 2 deficiencies, 2 of them serious (actual harm or immediate jeopardy). The full statement and the facility’s plan of correction follow, verbatim from the federal record.

F 0755 Level of Harm - Immediate jeopardy to resident health or safety Residents Affected - Few Provide pharmaceutical services to meet the needs of each resident and employ or obtain the services of a licensed pharmacist. **NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on interview and record review, the facility failed to provide pharmaceutical services (the process of receiving and interpreting prescriber's orders and to provide procedures that assure the accurate acquiring, receiving, dispensing, and administration of all drugs) to meet the needs of each resident for one (Resident #1) of four residents reviewed for pharmaceutical services. The facility failed to ensure the hospital discharge order to continue Eliquis (anticoagulant commonly known as a blood thinner medication) was accurately transcribed and administered to Resident #1 as ordered from 8/26/2024 to 9/26/2024 (30 days). The noncompliance was identified as past noncompliance (PNC). The IJ began on 8/26/2024 and ended on 10/19/2024. The facility had corrected the noncompliance before the state's investigation began. This failure could place residents at risk for not receiving medications as ordered by their physician or per manufacturer's directions. Findings included: Record review of Resident #1's PPS MDS assessment dated [DATE] revealed Resident #1 was a [AGE] year-old female admitted to the facility on [DATE] with diagnoses of atrial fibrillation (irregular heart rhythm), displaced intertrochanteric fracture of the left femur (fractured left hip), and encounter for other orthopedic aftercare (care after surgery). The MDS also revealed a BIMS score of 15 (suggested no cognitive impairment). Record review of Resident #1's care plan revised on 10/23/2024 revealed Resident #1 was at risk for bleeding due to anticoagulant use and interventions included evaluating the skin for evidence of impaired coagulation (bruising, petechia, bleeding). Record review of Resident #1's MAR for August 2024 revealed Eliquis was ordered and administered to Resident #1 from 8/08/2024 until 8/23/2024. Record review of Resident #1's hospital H&P dated 8/26/2024 revealed Resident #1 was transferred to the hospital on 8/23/2024 and was on Eliquis for atrial fibrillation. Record review of Resident #1's hospital Discharge summary dated [DATE] revealed orders to continue Eliquis after discharge from the hospital.
