During an interview on 02/18/2026 at 3:10 PM, LVN-E stated if there was a check mark on the MAR with letters, it would have meant the medication had been administered to the resident. She stated if there was blood sugar below the parameter of 120, she would hold the insulin and check it again at a later time. LVN-E stated if she had a resident with a sliding scale, she would give/hold the insulin depending on the doctor's order and what the sliding scale was in place. She stated there would not have been any reason for her to give insulin if the blood sugar were outside the parameters. She stated if insulin was given if below the parameters, the side effects of the residents could bottom out (low blood sugar), then they would have to give something to bring the sugars back up. LVN-E stated it was the nurse's responsibility to document in the MAR whether the medication was given or not. She stated she felt the order for Resident #102 used to have an order with no parameters and did not know when it had changed to having parameters. During an interview on 02/18/2026 at 3:38 PM, the DON stated the medication Lantus for Resident #102's order had a parameter to hold if less than (<) 120. She stated if there was a check mark, it meant the medication was given. The DON stated she felt there was an order of no parameter a couple of months ago. She stated if doctors change orders they were discussed in the twenty-four (24) hour report. She stated if you had a blood sugar below the parameters the insulin should be held and if there was an order change or update, the LVN's and RNs should be aware of the change. She stated the nurses are briefed on changes during IDT meetings. The DON stated if you give insulin outside of those parameters, the side

effects could be hypoglycemia (low blood sugar) and could have led to hospitalization and/or death. She stated the failure occurred with the nurses not paying attention to updated order changes and the DON for not monitoring the nurses close enough. During an interview on 02/18/2026 at 4:06 PM, MD-L, during a returned phone call, he stated if Resident #102's sugar was under the parameter, the nurses should not be giving his Lantus SoloStar Subcutaneous medication. He stated all nurses administering medications should have followed orders and it was his expectations to do so. Record review of the facility policy Physician Orders, dated 2015 revealed: Purpose:To monitor and ensure the accuracy and completeness of the medication orders, treatment orders, and ADL order for each resident. Written Orders by the Physician or Nurse Practitioner:1. Nurse will review the order and if needed contact the prescriber for any clarifications2.
