Safeguard resident-identifiable information and/or maintain medical records on each resident that are in
accordance with accepted professional standards.
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY**
Based on observation, interviews, and record reviews, the facility failed to maintain medical records that
were complete and accurately documented in accordance with accepted professional standards and
practices for 1 (100/200 hall crash cart) out of 2 crash carts and 1 (Resident #18) out of 5 residents
reviewed for medical records.
1. Facility night nurses did not initial on the crash cart supply verification sheet after checking supplies
inside the 100/200 hall crash cart on 04/08/2025, 04/09/2025, 04/10/2025, 04/16/2025, 04/17/2025, and
04/18/2025.
2. Facility medication aide-C did not document exact times when she administered Resident #18's
medications on the resident's medication administration record.
This failure placed residents at risk for missed treatment and medications which could result in decline in
heal and well-being.
Findings included:
1. Observation on 05/06/2025 at 4:00 p.m. revealed there were two crash carts located at the 100/200 hall
nursing station and 300/400 hall nursing station, and inside the crash carts had all supplies per the crash
cart supply verification such as Ambu bag with mask (tool that is used to deliver positive pressure
ventilation to any subject with insufficient or ineffective breaths), backboard, blood pressure cuff, and so on.
Record review of Daily Emergency/Crash Cart Supply Verification Sheet, from 04/01/2025 to 04/30/2025,
revealed there were no nurse's initials on 04/08/2025, 04/09/2025, 04/10/2025, 04/16/2025, 04/17/2025,
and 04/18/2025 (total 6 days) on the sheet of the 100/200 hall crash cart.
Interview on 05/06/2025 at 4:08 p.m. with ADON acknowledged there were no nurse's initials on
04/08/2025, 04/09/2025, 04/10/2025, 04/16/2025, 04/17/2025, and 04/18/2025 (total 6 days) on the Daily
Emergency/Crash Cart Supply Verification Sheet of the 100/200 hall crash cart from 04/01/2025 to
04/30/2025. ADON said night nurse should check the supplies inside the crash cart per the sheet and initial
if the crash cart had all supplies every day. ADON said she found out which night nurses worked at those
dates and what reason they did not initial. Further interview with ADON on 05/06/2025 at 4:14 p.m., ADON
called the night nurses with the surveyor, but the nurses did not answer the phone so left message. Further
interview on 05/08/2025 at 10:30 a.m. with ADON stated the night nurses called to ADON on 05/08/2025
and said they checked the supplies inside the 100/200 hall crash carts per the sheet, and no issues were
noted. However, they said they forgot initialing on the sheet on 04/08/2025, 04/09/2025, 04/10/2025,
04/16/2025, 04/17/2025, and 04/18/2025 (total 6 days).
Interview on 05/08/2025 at 12:31 p.m. with DON stated night nurses should have initialed on 04/08/2025,
04/09/2025, 04/10/2025, 04/16/2025, 04/17/2025, and 04/18/2025 on the Daily Emergency/Crash Cart
Supply Verification Sheet of the 100/200 crash cart because they said they checked, and all supplies were

facility crash carts and sheets regarding if nurses document on the sheets.
Record review of facility policy, titled Crash Cart / Emergency Cart, dated 1/10/2017, revealed Charge
nurses will be responsible for enduring the cart is appropriately stocked and will check this daily and as
needed.
2. Record review of Resident #18's face sheet, dated 05/08/2025, revealed the resident was [AGE] years
old female, originally admitted on [DATE], and re-admitted to the facility on [DATE] with diagnosis of type 2
diabetes mellitus (not control blood sugars in the body), hypertension (high blood pressures),
hyperlipidemia (high fat in the body), cellulitis (skin infection), and kidney failure (the kidneys lose the ability
to remove water and balance fluids).
Record review of Resident #18's quarterly MDS, dated [DATE], revealed the resident's BIMS was 13 out of
15, which indicated the resident's cognitive was intact and was independent to most activities of daily life
such as sit to stand, chair-to-bed, and toilet transfer.
Record review of Resident #18's physician order, dated 12/19/2024, revealed the resident had the order of
Carvedilol tablet 25 mg one tablet by mouth twice a day for hypertension - hold for systolic blood pressure
less than 110 or pulse less than 60.
Record review of Resident #18's medication administration record from 04/01/2025 to 04/30/2025 revealed
the resident's Carvedilol 25 mg for hypertension was scheduled at 8:00 am and 8:00 pm. Further record
review of the resident's medication administration record from 04/01/2025 to 04/30/2025 revealed on
04/08/2025, charted time was 12:13 pm but administered on time, on 04/09/2025, charted time was 11:43
pm but administered on time, and on 04/13/2025, charted time was 11:32 pm but administered on time, and
there were no exact times when Resident #18 received it at those dates.
Interview on 05/07/2025 at 4:24 p.m. with medication aide-C stated she administered Resident #18's
Carvedilol 25 mg on time between 8 and 9 am on 04/08/2025, 04/09/2025, and 04/13/2025, but she was so
busy, she did not chart on the resident's medication administration record after Resident #18 took it.
Medication aide-C stated she charted after she completed passing all medications to 100/200 hall
residents. Further interview with medication aide-C stated she should have charted right away after
Resident #18 took her Carvedilol 25 mg by mouth to give accurate information regarding what time the
resident was receiving her blood pressure medications per the facility policy.
Interview on 05/07/2025 at 4:41 p.m. with ADON stated there were no exact times when Resident #18
received her Carvedilol 25 mg at 04/08/2025, 04/09/2025, and 04/13/2025 on the resident's medication
administration record, and medication aide-C should have charted what time the resident took it on the
medication administration record by clicking the time on the computer right away after Resident #18 took it
per the facility policy.
Interview on 05/08/2025 at 12:31 p.m. with DON stated medication aide-C should have charted what time
Resident #18 took her Carvedilol 25 mg by mouth on the medication administration record by clicking the
time on the computer right away after the resident took it per the facility policy. If the medication aide did not
chart exact time when Resident #18 received her blood pressure medications on the medication
administration record, the resident might receive her medications at an incorrect time because the
medication administration record was one of communication methods among health care professionals
such as physician, nurse practitioner, and charge nurses. DON had responsibility to

CNA A was interviewed on 5/8/2025 at 8:57 AM. She verified Resident #11 required EBP. She was unsure
why there was no PPE cart in the room, and she stated she would obtain PPE from the central supply area
before providing resident care, if a PPE cart was not present. CNA A reported potential harm to residents of
not using indicated PPE was contamination or illness to residents.
The IP was interviewed on 5/7/2025 at 11:30 AM. She stated the facility expectation is to post signage of
TBP and obtain PPE carts as soon as possible for any resident requiring isolation precautions. The IP was
notified the survey team's observation, and she reported potential harm to residents from staff not
implementing isolation precautions appropriately was the spread of organisms that are contagious. The IP
reported frequent in-services to staff regarding infection prevention and PPE, and the most recent one she
could recall was in April 2025.
A record review of the facility police titled Infection Control- Precautions dated 12/2017 and revised 3/2024,

review of the quarterly MDS submitted on 3/25/2025 revealed in question C0100 that the resident is
rarely/never understood, thus making a BIMS score not able to be assessed. Question M0300 of the MDS
reflected one stage 4 pressure ulcer. Review of Resident #12's EMR revealed a physician's order dated
11/4/2024 indicating staff may utilize EBP for high contact resident care. The comprehensive care plan
contained a focus area dated 4/17/2025 directing staff to utilize EBP during high contact care. The listed

Level of Harm - Minimal harm
or potential for actual harm
On 5/7/2025 at 8:13 AM, Resident #12 was heard yelling. Resident #12's room was open and the curtain
was drawn around the bed making the resident not visible from the hallway. Three staff members, including
the ADON were observed exiting the curtained area of the room. None of the staff members were wearing
PPE at the time they exited the curtained area. The three staff members were observed removing gloves
prior to exiting the room and using hand sanitizer from the dispenser located in the hallway. Signage was
present on the resident's door indicating EBP.
Residents Affected - Some
The ADON was interviewed at this time, and she reported Resident #12 was undergoing insertion of a
peripheral IV into his arm for a medication infusion. She stated the other two staff members were registered
nurses from a third-party vendor company who provided the infusion service, including the initiation of the
IV. The ADON stated this procedure did not require the use of PPE.
In a subsequent interview with the ADON on 5/7/2025 at 10:00 AM, she reported for resident's with EBP,
PPE is indicated when changing residents' clothes, transfering, or accessing indwelling catheters. She also
stated she did not feel an IV catheter initiation procedure met the requirements for PPE because it was not
listed on the rules of the EBP sign and the staff were not accessing his wounds. Resident #12's care plan
was reviewed with ADON, including the intervention that explicitly listed IV sites as cause for PPE
utilization. The ADON responded we don't normally use PPE for starting an IV. She reported potential harm
of not utilizing PPE for residents with EBP as the spread of bacteria.
A record review of the facility police titled Infection Control- Precautions dated 12/2017 and revised 3/2024,
in section titled Enhanced Barrier Precaution Guidance, subheading Considerations:
1. For residents for whom EBP are indicated, EBP is employed when performing the following high-contact
resident care activities: . wound care: any skin opening requiring a dressing.
