This survey cited 2 deficiencies, 1 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 0609 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Few Timely report suspected abuse, neglect, or theft and report the results of the investigation to proper authorities. **NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on interview and record review, the facility failed to ensure that all alleged violations involving abuse, neglect, exploitation or mistreatment, including injuries of unknown source and misappropriation of resident property, are reported immediately, but not later than 2 hours after the allegation is made, if the events that cause the allegation involve abuse or result in serious bodily injury, for 1 of 1 resident (Resident #1) was immediately reported to the State Survey Agency. 1. Resident #1 was administered the morning medications for another resident, which included three different blood pressure medications, on [DATE] at approximately 10:20 AM. 2. Resident #1 became unresponsive on [DATE] at 11:15 AM and was transported by ambulance to the local hospital emergency room. 3. The facility notified the resident's physician and responsible family member but did not report the incident to the State Survey Agency. This failure placed the resident at risk for potential future harm and decline in health status due to the incident not being investigated and corrective measures not being implemented to ensure medications were administered correctly. The findings included: Review of Resident #1's admission Record, dated [DATE], revealed a [AGE] year-old female admitted to the facility on [DATE]. The resident had an Out of Hospital DNR Code Status. The resident's diagnoses included sepsis (infection of the blood stream resulting in a cluster of symptoms such as drop in a blood pressure, increase in heart rate and fever), pneumonia, urinary tract infection, congestive heart failure (the heart's main pumping chamber - left ventricle - becomes stiff and unable to fill properly), hypertension (high blood pressure), dementia (impaired brain function and thought processes), and hypothyroidism (thyroid disorder). Review of Resident #1's comprehensive care plan, dated [DATE] revealed it addressed hypertension related to congestive heart failure. The care plan approaches included to give anti-hypertensive medications at ordered and monitor for side effects such as orthostatic hypotension and increased heart rate. Review of Resident #1's Nursing Progress Note, dated [DATE] at 10:33 AM revealed LVN A documented the resident's family and physician were contacted about the wrong medication being given. (continued on next page) Any deficiency statement ending with an asterisk (*) denotes a deficiency which the institution may be excused from correcting providing it is determined that other safeguards provide sufficient protection to the patients. (See instructions.) Except for nursing homes, the findings stated above are disclosable 90 days following the date of survey whether or not a plan of correction is provided. For nursing homes, the above findings and plans of correction are disclosable 14 days following the date these documents are made available to the facility. If deficiencies are cited, an approved plan of correction is requisite to continued program participation.

F 0760 Ensure that residents are free from significant medication errors. Level of Harm - Immediate jeopardy to resident health or safety **NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on observation, interview, and record review, the facility failed to ensure residents were free from significant medication errors for 1 of 7 residents (Resident #1) reviewed for medication regimen, in that: Residents Affected - Few Resident #1 was administered the morning medications for another resident, which included three different blood pressure medications, a narcotic medication, and a diuretic medication on 2/29/2024 at approximately 10:20 AM. Resident #1 became unresponsive on 2/29/2024 at 11:15 AM and was transported by ambulance to the local hospital emergency room. Resident #1 was admitted to the hospital on [DATE] with a diagnosis of hypotension (abnormally low blood pressure) due to drugs. An Immediate Jeopardy was identified on 03/07/2024. The Immediate Jeopardy Template was provided to the Administrator on 03/07/2024 at 5:15 PM. While the Immediate Jeopardy was removed on 03/08/2024 at 6:55 PM, the facility remained out of compliance at a scope of isolated and severity level of potential for more than minimal harm due to the facility's need to evaluate the effectiveness of the corrective actions. This failure placed residents at risk of significant medication errors and a decline in health status, serious injury, and/or death. The findings included: Review of Resident #1's admission Record, dated 3/01/2024, revealed a [AGE] year-old female admitted to the facility on [DATE]. The resident had an Out of Hospital DNR Code Status. The resident's diagnoses included sepsis (infection of the blood stream resulting in a cluster of symptoms such as drop in a blood pressure, increase in heart rate and fever), pneumonia, urinary tract infection, congestive heart failure (the heart's main pumping chamber - left ventricle - becomes stiff and unable to fill properly), hypertension (high blood pressure), dementia (impaired brain function and thought processes), and hypothyroidism (thyroid disorder). Review of Resident #1's comprehensive care plan, dated 2/28/2024 revealed it addressed hypertension related to congestive heart failure. The care plan approaches included to give anti-hypertensive medications at ordered and monitor for side effects such as orthostatic hypotension and increased heart rate. Review of Resident #1's Medication Administration Record, dated February 2024, revealed LVN A documented a blood pressure of 121/75 on the morning of 2/29/2024. The record documented Resident #1's medication orders included: Cozaar 50 mg daily (anti-hypertensive medication) Metoprolol succinate 12.5 mg daily (anti-hypertensive medication) Furosemide 10 mg daily (diuretic medication) Tramadol 50 mg daily at bedtime for pain (opioid pain relief medication).

Level of Harm - Immediate jeopardy to resident health or safety In an interview on 3/01//2024 at 2:18 PM, the DON stated LVN A had made a medication error the prior day on 2/29/2024. She stated LVN A got distracted when someone was talking to her and she grabbed the wrong medication cup and gave Resident #1 the medications for another resident. She stated the medications included a blood pressure pill and Norco. The DON stated LVN A immediately told her at 10:30 AM. She stated LVN A realized what she had done when she did it. The DON stated she called Resident #1's physician at 10:33 AM, and he asked what BP medication Resident #1 had been given, which was Isosorbide 60 mg. The physician stated that was a high amount of blood pressure medication for her and to monitor her BP. The DON stated at 11:15 AM, Resident #1 was unresponsive, had no heartbeat or pulse, and oxygen was applied. The DON stated she did a sternum rub and someone called 911. The DON stated she called the physician at 11:24 AM and notified him Resident #1 was awake, alert, and on her way to the ER. The DON stated she had LVN A call and notify the resident's family. The DON stated the ADON accompanied LVN A on her next medication pass. The DON stated she completed an incident report for the med error. The DON stated LVN A was a new nurse and was hired within the last year. Residents Affected - Few In an interview on 3/01/2024 at 3:40 PM, the ADON stated she had made random observations of LVN A during the past few months and there was never anything observed that gave her reason for alarm or concern. The ADON stated she did not know when the medications were being given yesterday morning or if LVN A was passing medications from the medication cart or from the medication room. The ADON stated LVN A told her what happened. LVN A was asked if she had passed any more medications since the incident and she said no. The ADON stated she went through LVN A's next medication pass with her about noon on 2/29/2024. She stated LVN A passed medications from the medication room (carried the medication cup from the medication room rather than pushing the medication cart) due to not having a full medication pass at that time. The ADON stated she observed LVN A through the whole process from start to finish. She stated she observed LVN A review the resident's medication order, open the medication cart and find the correct medication, verify the labeled medication card with the order, pop the medication from the bubble pack card into the medication cup, and take it to the resident and verify, and administered the medication.

The DON stated the Administrator determined LVN A may need more training and needed to be taken off the schedule. The DON stated she came to the facility on Saturday and suspended LVN A's employment per the Administrator's directive. She stated the Administrator spoke with her corporate boss on 3/04/24 and he gave instruction for LVN A to have additional instruction for the medication pass with the medication pass checklist to be completed for 3 days - Thursday, Friday and Saturday. The DON stated LVN A was scheduled to return to work on Thursday 3/07/24 and the ADON would go with her during the medication pass with a checklist. The DON stated this was the first medication error LVN A had made since she started employment during November 2023. In a telephone interview on 3/06/2024 at 12:51 PM, Resident #1's physician stated he was aware of the incident and had been called immediately by a nurse at the facility. The physician stated he had been at the facility the morning of Thursday 2/29/24 before the incident. He stated Resident #1 was fine and was going to therapy. The physician stated Resident #1 became syncopal after being given the other resident's blood pressure medications. He stated she was responsive when the ambulance crew arrived to transport her to the ER. The physician stated the safety concern for Resident #1 was her blood pressure going too low and making her pass out. He stated the other medications did not have huge concerns (pain and diuretic medications). He stated the BP medications were the main concern.

F 0760 Level of Harm - Immediate jeopardy to resident health or safety Residents Affected - Few 1. Resident #1 was immediately assessed by the Licensed Nurse (LN) on 02/29/24 and the physician was notified of the medication error with a new order to monitor the resident's blood pressure closely. The order was noted by the LN. When the LN went to monitor Resident #1 after receiving the order, the resident was found unresponsive. The LN called EMS which responded quickly, and the resident was discharged to the ER for observation on 02/29/24. 2. The 24-hour report was reviewed on 3/7/24 by the Assistant Director of Nursing (ADON) for the past 72 hours to ensure there were no further medication errors and/or changes in any resident's condition. Any concerns will be addressed by a LN if identified. The results of the report covering the past 72 hours found no additional medication errors or changes in residents' condition. No further physician notification of actions by the licensed nurse was necessary. 3. When the Director of Nursing (DON) interviewed the LN on 02/29/24 who made medication error, it was determined that the LN dispensed the medication for a resident other than resident #1. She then realized that she needed to take resident #1's blood pressure, and subsequently also gave the other resident's medication to resident #1. The education provided to this LN by the DON included avoiding distractions and completing the medication pass one resident at a time once starting the medication administration process. Beginning 3/6/24, LNs and Certified Medication Aides (CMAs) will have a medication pass observation completed by a Registered Nurse (RN) prior to the beginning of their next shift and receive education as needed for any concerns identified by the RN conducting the observation. The RN will observe a minimum of 50% of the LNs or CMAs medication pass for that scheduled time to validate competency. The RN will stop the LN or CMA if they identify a problem and provide immediate reeducation in real time on the issue identified. The medication administration observations will be documented on the facility's Medication Administration/Technique Observation tool which follows the facility's Medication Management policy. On 3/8/24, the LNs and CMAs went through additional medication administration education that was provided by the ADON. This education included avoiding distractions to the medication pass and once starting to dispense medication for a resident, not to stop and perform any other non-emergent tasks. It also included following the facilities procedure on Medication Administration from the facilities Nursing Procedure Manual. The LNs and CMAs understanding of the education will be demonstrated through RN observed medication administration observations previously described. All newly hired LNs and CMAs will go through medication pass validations by a LN with the tools mentioned above during their orientation. 4.
