Ensure services provided by the nursing facility meet professional standards of quality.
Level of Harm - Minimal harm
or potential for actual harm
Based on interview, and record review, the facility failed to ensure professional standards of care were
followed for one of three sampled residents (Resident 1) when: 1. A physician's weekly order to collect labs
was not followed, 2. A SBAR (situation, background, assessment, recommendation-a communication tool
used by healthcare workers when there is a change of condition [COC] among the residents) was not
initiated after the facility received abnormal lab results pertaining to Resident 1's kidney (organs that filters
blood to removed waste, excess fluid and toxins from the body) function, and; 3. The abnormal lab results
was not reported to Resident 1's physician. This failure increased Resident 1's risk for prolonged pain,
discomfort, and a delay in care and treatment which decreased the facility's potential to prevent Resident
1's kidneys from critical injury. A review of Resident 1's admission record indicated she was initially
admitted to the facility in December 2025 with medical diagnosis which included displaced bimalleolar
fracture of right lower leg (fractures of both the tibia [the larger bone in the lower leg] and fibula [the outer
and smaller bone in the lower leg] resulting in injuries to both sides of the ankle [a joint that connects the
foot to the lower leg]) and chronic kidney disease (a progressive condition where kidney damage prevents
them from filtering waste from the blood effectively, leading to waste buildup and kidney failure). A review of
Resident 1's Minimum Data Set (MDS-a federally mandated resident assessment tool) dated 12/15/25,
indicated her Brief Interview of Mental Status (BIMS-a cognition [the processes of thinking and reasoning]
assessment) score was 12, which indicated her cognition was moderately impaired (a score of 1-7
indicates cognition is severely impaired, 8-12 indicates cognition is moderately impaired, and 13-15
indicates cognition is intact). A review of Resident 1's order summary report indicated the following active
order as of 12/10/25, CBC (complete blood count- a blood test that measures key parts of the blood), BMP
(basic metabolic panel-a blood test that measures the body's chemical balance, metabolism [a chemical
process that occurs in the body to convert food into energy], and kidney function) weekly in the morning
every Wednesday for four (4) weeks. A review of Resident 1's electronic Medication Administration Record
(MAR) dated December 2025 indicated the CBC and BMP were documented on 12/17/25 and 12/31/25 as
completed [check marked]. A review of Resident 1's Electronic Medical Record (EMC) (other than the
eMAR) did not include any evidence that the CBC and BMP were collected on 12/17/25. A review of
Resident 1's Lab Results Report dated 1/02/26, indicated a CBC and BMP were collected on 12/31/25 at
7:05 a.m. The report indicated the CBC and BMP were reported on 1/02/26 at 11:51 a.m. The report was
flagged [meaning, it required attention]. The report indicated Resident 1's WBC (white blood cells-a blood
cell that helps attack infection or injury in the body) was 14.2 K/mm3 (thousands per cubic millimetermeasure of unit used to report WBC counts) [a normal range is between 3.8-10.1]. Resident 1's BUN (blood
urea nitrogen- measures the amount of nitrogen from waste in the blood to evaluate kidney function) was
reported as 42 mg/dL (milligrams per deciliter- a unit of measure) [a normal range is between 6-25]. The
report indicated Resident 1's creatine (measures how efficiently

kidneys filter waste from muscle metabolism) was 1.34 mg/dL [a normal range is 0.60-1.20]. The report also
indicated Resident 1's BUN/CREAT ratio (a medical marker of kidney function) was 31 [a normal range is
9-30]. Resident 1's WBC, BUN, creatine, and BUN/CREAT was all flagged as high. A review of Resident 1's
EMR indicated no evidence that a SBAR was completed on 1/02/26, or that the physician was contacted
regarding the abnormal lab results that were reported to the facility on 1/02/26. A review of Resident 1's
SBAR form, dated 1/03/26 at 5 p.m., indicated, [Resident 1] Increased edema [swelling in the body tissues
caused by excess fluid buildup] to BLEs [bilateral lower extremities]. A review of Resident 1's SBAR form,
dated 1/04/26 at 9 p.m., indicated, Decrease urine output.lower abdominal pain or tenderness.AM
[morning] staff reported the resident [Resident 1] have difficulty voiding [urinating]. The writer performed a
bladder scan [a device used to measure how much urine is in the bladder] and results shows the resident
[Resident 1] is retaining urine about 1 L [liter- a metric unit of capacity]. A review of Resident 1's progress
notes, type Nurse's Note, dated 1/07/26 at 11:31 a.m., indicated, Resident [Resident 1] notes with c/o
[complaints of] pain level 10/10 [numerical pain scale ranging from 0 [no pain] to 10 [worst imaginable
pain]], located in her back. Resident noted to be in distressed.MD [medical doctor] order for resident to be
sent to ER [emergency room] for further evaluation.A review of Resident 1's ED (Emergency Department)
Provider Notes dated 1/08/26, indicated, Chief complaint.patient presents with back pain.BUN 102 mg/dL,
creatine 1.67 mg/dL.Clinical Impressions.Back pain.urinary tract infection [UTI- an infection in the
bladder/urinary tract].AKI [acute kidney injury- a sudden loss of kidney function where the kidneys can no
longer filter waste from the blood, leading to a buildup of waste products and fluid in the body].dehydration
[a condition where your body loses more fluid than it takes in].During an interview on 1/22/26 at 2:43 p.m.
with Licensed Nurse 1 (LN 1), she stated when lab values were out of range nurses were required to report
this information to the MD for review. LN 1 further stated provider notification should be documented by the
reporting staff in the resident's EMR. During an interview and concurrent record review on 1/22/26 at 12:05
p.m., the DON stated she expected nursing staff to contact the MD to report critical or abnormal lab results
and document this notification. The DON stated she expected a SBAR to be completed if lab values were
out of range. The DON verified Resident 1's MD orders for weekly CBC and BMP placed on 12/10/25. The
DON confirmed Resident 1's December 2025 eMAR indicated that the CBC and BMP were completed on
12/17/25, but there was no evidence of this on Resident's 1 EMR. The DON stated, I don't know what
happened to this [the lab collection]. The DON was given the opportunity and inquired with the facility's
medical record department to provide documents indicating the CBC and BMP were collected, and results
communicated to the MD, but she was unable to provide the evidence requested. The DON further
confirmed Resident 1's BUN of 42 mg/dL, creatine of 1.34 mg/dL, BUN/CREAT ratio of 31, and WBC of
14.2 K/mm3 from 1/02/26 should had been reported to the MD, but was unable to locate evidence of this.
The DON further stated, I would expect that [the labs] to be included in the SBAR to inform the MD so that
the doctor can do the interventions right away. The DON stated, If an elevated BUN is left untreated, it can
cause kidney injury. The DON stated if nurse staff documented an order as complete, she expected it to be
completed. A review of the facility policy and procedure (P&P) titled, Test Results, revised in 2007,
indicated, The resident's attending physician will be notified of the results of diagnostic tests [medical
procedures used to identify, rule out, or monitor disease]. Should the test results be provided to the facility,
the attending physician shall be promptly notified of the results.The director of nursing services or charge
nurse receiving the test results, shall be responsible for notifying the physician of such test results.A review
