the potential for Resident 443 to administer medications inaccurately.
Residents Affected - Few
Findings:
Review of the facility's P&P titled Self-Administration of Medications revised 12/2012 showed the residents
have the right to self-administer medications if the staff and practitioner have determined that it is clinically
appropriate and safe for the resident to do so. Determination of a resident's ability to self-administer
medications shall be documented in the resident's medical record.
On 10/2/23 at 0924 hours, an observation and concurrent interview was conducted with Resident 443 and
CNA 1. Resident 443 was observed with two medicine cups containing pink cream on the bedside table.
Resident 443 stated the cream was for the inflamed skin between his groins. Resident 443 stated the nurse
left the cream at his bedside. CNA 1 was asked about the cream and stated the cream was for Resident
443's rash.
Medical record review for Resident 443 was initiated on 10/2/23. Resident 443 was admitted to the facility
on [DATE].
Review of Resident 443's Order Summary Report dated 10/3/23, showed a physician's order dated
9/26/23, for Resident 443 having the capacity to make health care decisions and the following physician's
orders:

**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
observation, interview, medical record review, and facility P&P review, the facility failed to ensure one of 23
final sampled residents (Resident 24) with an existing pressure ulcer received the necessary treatment and
services consistent with professional standards of practice.
Residents Affected - Some
* The Treatment Nurse did not date, time, and initial Resident 24's left heel wound treatment dressing when
performed wound care. This failure had the potential for Resident 24 to not receive appropriate care and
services to prevent the wound to worsen.
Findings:
Review of the facility's P&P titled Wound Care dated 10/2010 showed to mark tape with initials, time, and
date; and apply to dressing.
Review of the facility's matrix showed Resident 24 had developed a Stage 4 pressure ulcer on her left heel
at the facility.
Medical record review for Resident 24 was initiated on 10/2/23. Resident 24 was admitted to the facility on
[DATE], and readmitted on [DATE].
Review of Resident 24's H&P examination dated 6/30/23, showed Resident 24 did not have the capacity to
understand and make decisions.
Review of Resident 24's Order Summary Report dated 10/3/23, showed a physician's order dated 9/4/23,
to cleanse the left heel Stage 4 pressure injury with normal saline, pat dry, apply Tetracyte (a topical
antibiotics) and pack with an alginate silver (an antimicrobial dressing), and wrap with Kerlix (a bandage
roll) every day shift every other day.
On 10/4/23 at 0846 hours, a wound care observation for Resident 24 was conducted with the Treatment
Nurse. The Treatment Nurse was observed preparing wound care supplies on an established clean field.
The Treatment Nurse performed hand hygiene using soap and water, donned a pair of clean gloves,
cleaned the wound with gauze pads and normal saline and dried the surrounding areas of the wound with
dry gauze pads. The Treatment nurse performed hand hygiene and donned a pair of clean gloves, applied
Tetracyte wound spray to the left heel wound, packed wound with calcium alginate silver dressing, wrapped
with Kerlix, and secured with tape.
On 10/4/23 at 1434 hours, an interview was conducted with the Treatment Nurse. The Treatment Nurse
verified the wound dressing was not dated and initialed. The Treatment Nurse stated it had been her
practice not to date and initial on the wound dressing because she had been doing the wound treatments
all the time.
On 10/5/23 at 1329 hours, an interview was conducted with the DON. The DON verified the above findings
and stated she spoke with the Treatment Nurse. The DON stated the wound dressing should have been
dated and initialed to know when it was last changed and who changed the dressing.

Resident 21 was observed lying in bed. Resident 21 stated she had fallen in the past at home and in the
facility. Resident 21's bed was observed with two floor mats positioned underneath her bed.
On 10/3/23 at 1135 hours, an observation and concurrent interview was conducted with PTA 1. Resident 21
was observed lying in bed. Resident 21's bed was observed with two floor mats positioned underneath her
bed. PTA 1 verified the floor mats should be positioned adjacent to each side of Resident 21's bed rather
than positioned underneath Resident 21' s bed. PTA 1 stated Resident 21 was at risk for falls due to
generalized weakness.
Cross reference to F656, example #1.
Based on observation, interview, medical record review, and facility P&P review, the facility failed to ensure
three of 23 final sampled residents (Residents 10, 21, and 37) remained free from accident hazards.
*The facility failed to implement bilateral floor mats as per the physician's order and as care planned for
Resident 37.
*The facility failed to ensure the bilateral floor mats were implemented as per the care plan for Resident 21.
*The facility failed to continue to monitor and document assessment every shift for 72 hours post fall
incident for Resident 10.
These failures had the potential to place the residents at risk for serious injury.
Findings:
1. Review of the facility's P&P titled Falls and Fall Risk, Managing revised 12/2007, showed staff will identify
interventions related to the resident's specific risks and causes to try to prevent the resident from falling,
and to try to minimize complications from falling.

Ensure a licensed pharmacist perform a monthly drug regimen review, including the medical chart,
following irregularity reporting guidelines in developed policies and procedures.
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
interview, medical record review, and facility P&P review, the facility failed to ensure the Pharmacy
Consultant's recommendations from drug regimen review in August 2023 were acted upon for one of 23
final sampled residents (Resident 9). This failure placed the resident at risk for receiving unnecessary
medications, increasing their risk for side effects.
Findings:
Review of the facility's P&P titled Medication Therapy revised date 4/2007 showed the Consultant
Pharmacist shall review each resident's medication regimen monthly, as requested by the staff or
practitioner, or when a clinically significant adverse consequence is confirmed or suspected. Periodically,
and when circumstances are present that represent a greater risk for medication-related complications, the
staff and practitioner will review the medication regimen for continued indications, proper dosage and
duration, and possible adverse consequences. The Physician will identify situations where medications
should be tapered, discontinued, or changed to another medication, for example: when a medication is
being given in excessive doses, for excessive periods of time, without adequate monitoring, or in the
absence of a valid clinical rationale; when the results of ongoing assessment, or the presence of clinically
significant adverse consequences monitoring, suggest that a medication should be reduced or discontinued
entirely; and when a medication is being prescribed to treat, or in anticipation of, an adverse consequence
of another prescribed drug.
Medical record review for Resident 9 was initiated on 10/2/23. Resident 9 was admitted to the facility on

feeling depressed; and a physician's order dated 12/20/22, for amitriptyline HCL (antidepressant and nerve
pain medication) tablet 50 mg one tablet by mouth at bedtime for neuropathy (weakness, numbness, and
pain from nerve damage).
Review of the Note to Attending Physician/Prescriber dated 8/6/23, showed a recommendation from the
Pharmacy Consultant to consider reevaluating the continued use or a dose reduction of fluoxetine and
amitriptyline.
Review of the Behavior Management Follow-up dated 9/25/23, did not show documentation regarding the
fluoxetine and amitriptyline medications, identified/target behaviors, and progress/updates/side effects.

Level of Harm - Minimal harm
or potential for actual harm
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
observation, interview, medical record review, and facility P&P review, the facility failed to ensure the
medication error rate was below 5%. The facility's medication error rate was 7.41%. Two of two licensed
nurses (LVNs 2 and 4) were found to have made errors during the medication administration observations.
Residents Affected - Few
* Resident 10 had a physician's order to apply 2 grams of 1% Voltaren (pain relief gel); however, the LVN
failed to utilize the dosing card to determine the dose of Voltaren administered to Resident 10.
* Resident A had a physician's order for Pulmicort inhalation (corticosteroid medication) for hypoxia which
was scheduled to be administered at 0900 hours; however, the LVN did not administer Resident A's
Pulmicort until approximately 5 hours after the mediation was ordered to be administered.
These failures had the potential to negatively affect the residents' health.
Findings:
Review of the facility's P&P titled Administering Medications revised 12/2012 showed the medications must
be administered in accordance with the orders, including any required time frames. The medications must
be administered within one hour of their prescribed time, unless otherwise specified.
1. On 10/4/23 at 0816 hours, a medication administration observation for Resident 10 was conducted with
LVN 2. LVN 2 prepared and administered Resident 10's medications which included 1% Voltaren external
topical gel 2 grams for pain. LVN 2 was observed squeezing the 1% Voltaren gel from a medicine tube into
a plastic medicine cup (without having utilized the dosing card). LVN 2 then administered the 1% Voltaren
topical gel to Resident 10.
Medical record review for Resident 10 was initiated on 10/2/23. Resident 10 was admitted to the facility on
[DATE].
Review of the physician's order dated 9/28/23, showed to apply 2 grams of 1% Voltaren external gel
topically to bilateral knees two times a day for pain.
At the conclusion of the medication administration observation for Resident 10, LVN 2 was asked how she
determined she administered the ordered dose (2 grams) of 1% Voltaren topical gel to Resident 10. LVN 2
stated the 1% Voltaren topical gel came with a dosing card used to ensure accurate dosing of the
medication. LVN 2 stated she should have utilized the dosing card, which showed 2.25 inches of 1%
Voltaren topical gel, when applied to the dosing card, equated to 2 grams of the medication.
2. On 10/5/23 at 0809 hours, a medication administration observation for Resident A was conducted with
LVN 3. LVN 3 prepared and administered Resident A's medications.
On 10/5/23 at 1010 hours, after having administered Resident A's scheduled medications, a medical record
review was conducted with LVN 3. Review of Resident A's physician's order dated 9/26/23, showed an
order for Pulmicort inhalation suspension 0.5 mg/2 ml one vial two times a day (at 0900 hours and 1700
hours) for hypoxia. LVN 3 verified she failed to administer Resident A's Pulmicort inhalation suspension 0.5
mg/2 ml as ordered by the physician.

professional principles; and all drugs and biologicals must be stored in locked compartments, separately
locked, compartments for controlled drugs.
3. On 10/5/23 at 0844 hours, and inspection of the facility's treatment cart was conducted with the
treatment nurse. The top drawer of the treatment cart was observed with several unpackaged gauze pads
lying on top of a pair of scissors. Additionally, a plastic cup was observed with an ointment inside of the
plastic cup, and located within the plastic cup was the end of an application stick. The top drawer of the
treatment cart also contained vinyl exam gloves, tape, and plastic bags. The Treatment Nurse verified the
findings. The Treatment Nurse stated the ointment in the plastic cup was Calmoseptine ointment (skin
barrier ointment). The Treatment Nurse stated she prepared the Calmoseptine ointment yesterday and
planned to apply the ointment to a resident; however, the resident was unavailable. The Treatment Nurse
stated she should have thrown the Calmoseptine ointment (inside of the plastic cup) and the unpackaged
gauze into the trash. The Treatment Nurse stated storing clean gauze unpackaged and Calmoseptine
ointment in a plastic cup (within the residents' treatment cart) was not in accordance with the facility's
infection control practices. The Treatment Nurse stated clean gauze was to be stored in a clean package
and Calmoseptine ointment not in use was to remain in the original package (tube).
2. On 10/4/23 at 0930 hours, Medication Cart A was observed parked in the hallway in front of Room A.
Medication Cart A was facing the hallway, unlocked, and unattended.
On 10/4/23 at 0956 hours, an observation and concurrent interview was conducted with LVN 2. LVN 2
verified Medication Cart A was unlocked and unattended . LVN 2 stated she forgot to lock Medication Cart
A when she moved to another cart. LVN 2 further stated the medication cart should be locked at all times
when not attended.
Based on observation, interview, and facility P&P review, the facility failed to ensure the medications were
stored and labeled properly two of four medication carts and failed to store resident biologicals and
treatment supplies in a safe manner for one of one treatment cart.
*The facility failed to ensure two medication carts (Medication Carts A & B) were kept locked when
unattended by staff.
* The facility failed to ensure medications were not left unattended on top of Medication Cart B.
* The facility's treatment cart was observed with several unpackaged gauze pads lying on top of a pair of
scissors and Calmoseptine ointment stored inside of a plastic cup.
These failures posed the risk of unauthorized persons having access to the medications and had the
potential to negatively impact the residents' well-being.
Findings:
Review of the facility's P&P titled Storage of Medications revised 4/2007 showed the facility shall store all
drugs and biologicals in a safe, secure, and orderly manner. Compartments (including, but not limited to,
drawers, cabinets, rooms, refrigerators, carts, and boxes) containing drugs and biologicals shall be locked
when not in use, and trays or carts used to transport such items shall not be left unattended if open or
otherwise potentially available to others.

Ensure therapeutic diets are prescribed by the attending physician and may be delegated to a registered or
licensed dietitian, to the extent allowed by State law.
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
observation, interview, medical record review, facility document review, and facility P&P review, the facility
failed to ensure one of 23 final sampled residents (Resident 343) was provided a prescribed therapeutic
diet. This failure posed the risk of Resident 343's nutrition needs not being met.
Findings:
Review of the facility's P&P titled Nutrition Care: Diet Orders for New Admission, Diet Changes, Nothing by
Mouth (NPO), or Hold Meals (undated) showed all residents/patients will have a written diet order on
admission which has been prescribed by the physician. Verbal telephone orders may be received and
recorded by a registered dietitian and will be signed by the prescriber.
On 10/2/23 at 1229 hours, during the dining observation, Resident 343 stated she had a thyroid surgery in
the past. Resident 343 stated she did not eat most of her protein in her plate because it was harder for her
to swallow, or the food got stuck in her throat. Resident 343's meal card ticket showed a regular soft diet
and bite-sized texture with thin liquids.
Medical record review for Resident 343 was initiated on 10/2/23. Resident 343 was admitted to the facility
on [DATE].
Review of Resident 343's H&P examination dated 9/28/23, showed Resident 343 had the capacity to
understand and make decisions.
Review of Resident 343's Order Summary Report for September and October 2023 did not show a
physician's order for Resident 343's diet.
Review of Resident 343's MAR for September and October 2023 did not show a physician's order for
Resident 343's diet.
Review of Resident 343's Nursing Progress Notes for September 2023 did not show an admission note or
documented evidence Resident 343 had a therapeutic diet order that was verified by the physician.
Review of Resident 343's Speech Therapy Evaluation and Plan of Treatment dated 9/27/23, showed
Resident 343 had history of thyroidectomy (a surgical removal of all or part of the thyroid gland). Resident
343 reported diet texture for approximately four to five years now after the surgery. Resident 343 was on a
regular diet, soft, and bite size texture, thin liquids consistency, and aspiration precautions.
Review of Resident 343's diet slip dated 9/27/23, showed a regular diet, mechanical soft texture, and thin
liquids.
On 10/2/23 at 1230 hours, an interview and concurrent medical record review was conducted with LVN 5.
LVN 5 verified there was no physician's diet order in the resident's electronic or paper medical record. LVN
5 showed a yellow diet slip of Resident 343 which showed a regular diet, mechanical soft texture, and thin
