F 0755 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Few Provide pharmaceutical services to meet the needs of each resident and employ or obtain the services of a licensed pharmacist. Based on interview, record review, and facility policy review, the facility failed to ensure medication was ordered from the pharmacy within enough time to ensure routine doses were available for administration to 1 (Resident #116) of 5 residents reviewed for medication availability. This had the potential for residents not to receive medications as their physician's ordered and negatively impact their physical and emotional well-being. Findings included: A facility policy titled, Medication Ordering and Receiving from Pharmacy, reviewed 09/2023, indicated, Medications and related products are received from the dispensing pharmacy on a timely basis. The facility maintains accurate records of medication order and receipt. The policy further indicated, 2) If not automatically refilled by pharmacy, repeat medications (refills) are [written on a medication order form/ordered by peeling off the top label from the physician order sheet and placing it in the appropriate area on the order form provided by the pharmacy for that purpose and or ordered electronically]. The policy specified, Reorder medication [three to four] days in advance of need, as directed by the pharmacy and delivery schedule, to ensure an adequate supply is on hand, and indicated medications that required Special processing should be ordered at least [seven days] in advance of need. Resident #116's admission Record indicated the facility admitted the resident on 07/09/2024. A quarterly Minimum Data Set (MDS), with an Assessment Reference Date (ARD) of 10/16/2024, revealed Resident #116 had a Brief Interview for Mental Status (BIMS) score of 15, which indicated the resident had intact cognition. Resident #116's Order Summary Report contained an order dated 07/09/2024 for Biktarvy oral tablet 50-200-25 milligrams (mg), one tablet by mouth at bedtime. Resident #116's November 2024 Medication Administration Record (MAR) revealed the resident's Biktarvy was scheduled to be given at 8:00 PM each day. The MAR indicated Licensed Vocational Nurse (LVN) #1 documented the resident's 11/30/2024 dose of Biktarvy as 9, for Other See Nurses Notes. Resident #116's Progress Notes revealed a note, dated 11/30/2024 at 10:13 PM, that indicated the resident's Biktarvy was ordered but did not arrive from the pharmacy. According to the note, the nurse called the pharmacy, who informed the nurse that the medication would be delivered on 12/01/2024. Resident #116's December 2024 MAR revealed LVN #2 documented the resident's 12/01/2024 dose of Biktarvy as 9, for Other See Nurses Notes.

F 0755 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Few During an interview on 12/04/2024 at 9:37 AM, LVN #1 stated Resident #116's Biktarvy was unavailable, so she called the pharmacy. Per LVN #1, Resident #116's Biktarvy medication container did not have a sticker on it to attach to a fax to reorder it, so she thought the medication had already been reordered. During an interview on 12/04/2024 at 11:14 AM, LVN #2 stated Resident #116's Biktarvy was ordered but was not delivered from the pharmacy. LVN #2 then stated the dayshift nurse called the pharmacy to see why the medication was not delivered and was notified the medication would be delivered on the evening of 12/01/2024; however, according to LVN #2, the Biktarvy was not delivered on 12/01/2024. LVN #2 further stated she normally reordered medications when there was about a seven-day supply left, and she was not sure why the pharmacy did not deliver the Biktarvy on time. During an interview on 12/04/2024 at 11:35 AM, the Director of Nursing (DON) stated she could not provide evidence the facility reordered Resident #116's Biktarvy prior to 12/01/2024.

During an interview on 12/04/2024 at 12:47 PM, the Pharmacy Technician stated the facility ordered Resident #116's Biktarvy on 12/01/2024 but the pharmacy did not have it in stock, so they sent it on 12/02/2024.

The DON said she thought the nurse likely saw the sticker was pulled off Resident #116's Biktarvy and assumed the medication had already been reordered. During an interview on 12/04/2024 at 3:44 PM, the Physician stated he was aware of Resident #116's missed doses of Biktarvy and since it was a long-term medication, missing two doses would not have any negative outcome. During an interview on 12/05/2024 at 9:22 AM, the DON stated she expected her staff to monitor when medications were low and to reorder them in a timely manner. During an interview on 12/05/2024 at 9:42 AM, the Administrator stated he did not have a medical background and deferred to the DON on the process for ordering medications. The Administrator further stated it was important to ensure residents received their ordered medications promptly and as ordered by the physician. 555147 Page 5 of 7 555147 12/05/2024 Oak River Rehab 3300 Franklin Street Anderson, CA 96007

F 0880 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Few wet one of the washcloths in the soapy water and washed the resident's urethral area without using a clean portion of washcloth with each stroke, and placed the washcloth back into the basin, swishing it around in the water, wrung it out and used it again to finish washing Resident #57's peri area. She then put the dirty washcloth on top of the bedside table, next to the wash basin, with no barrier under it. Without rinsing the resident's peri area, CNA #5 grabbed a dry washcloth and dried the resident off, placing that dirty washcloth on top of the wet one on the bedside table. CNA #6 assisted in turning Resident #57 on their left side, and CNA #5 used the third washcloth with soapy water to clean the resident's buttocks, placing the soiled washcloth on top of the bedside table, and without rinsing the resident, used the fourth dry washcloth to dry the resident off. Both CNA #5 and CNA #6 assisted the resident in placing on a clean brief and repositioning the resident in the bed. CNA #5 then grabbed one of the wet, soiled washcloths and wiped down the catheter tubing from the leg strap attached to Resident #57's right thigh, to the catheter bag hanging on the resident's trashcan. When finished, she exchanged the wet soiled washcloth for a soiled dry washcloth from the bedside stand and dried the catheter tubing from the leg strap to the catheter bag. CNA #5 then took the used washcloths and basin of water into the bathroom, emptying the basin and rinsing it out, and placing the washcloths in a trash bag for transport to the laundry. During an interview on 12/03/2024 at 8:48 AM, immediately following catheter care, CNA #5 stated, I don't know, when asked why she did not clean the catheter tubing from the end of the meatus toward the leg strap. CNA #5 stated that she always put her dirty linens on top of the bedside table like that and then took them into the bathroom to put them in a bag. She stated there were disinfectant wipes available in the enhanced barrier precautions bins if they wanted to use them; however, she did not use a barrier for catheter care supplies. During an interview on 12/04/2024 at 2:14 PM, the Director of Staff Development (DSD) stated not using a barrier for the catheter care supplies, using soiled linens for the catheter care instead of a clean surface for each wipe, and not cleaning the catheter tubing, moving away from the urethra, were all breeches of infection control. During an interview on 12/05/2024 at 10:06 AM, the Director of Nursing (DON) stated her expectation was for staff to maintain infection control practices during all treatments and procedures to include indwelling urinary catheter care, and she agreed there were breeches of infection control and would [NAME]-service on the process of indwelling urinary catheter care to ensure the CNAs had a good understanding going forward. During an interview on 12/05/2024 at 10:55 AM, the Administrator stated his expectation was for the staff to abide by the infection control policies and procedures set for the facility, including catheter care. 555147 Page 7 of 7
