F 0605 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Some Prevent the use of unnecessary psychotropic medications or use medications that may restrain a resident's ability to function. Based on interview and record review the facility failed to provide adequate monitoring for antipsychotic medications (a class of psychiatric drugs that helps manage severe mental health symptoms) for two out of five sampled residents (Residents 2 and 5) and PRN (as needed) medications were ordered beyond 14 days for three out of five sampled residents (Residents 7,8,18).This failure had the potential to result in adverse consequences ranging from functional decline, hospitalization, permanent injury, or death. Findings: During a concurrent interview and record review on 12/04/2025 at 5:37 PM with Licensed Vocational Nurse 1 (LVN1), Resident 2's blood pressure values on 11/07/2025 was reviewed. The blood pressure values indicated, Resident 2's blood pressure was documented as 156/77 on 11/07/2025 at 11:51 AM, 136/83 on 11/07/2025 at 4:17PM, and 135/77 on 11/08/2025 at 02:38 AM. LVN1 verified no additional blood pressure values were documented on 11/7/2025. Review of Resident 2's Medication Administration Record (MAR) dated 11/1/2025- 11/30/2025, indicated, Orthostatic BP (blood pressure) r/t (related to) antipsychotics every day shift every Fri (Friday) laying, sitting, and standing with an order start date of 11/07/2025. LVN1 defined Orthostatic blood pressure as Take BP (blood pressure) in sitting, lying, and standing position, wait at least 5 mins in each position before taking new bp (blood pressure). It should be documented in the vitals tab, the tab that we just reviewed. LVN1 verified Resident 2's November 2025 MAR, orthostatic blood pressure values on 11/7/25, 11/14/2025, 11/21/2025, and 11/28/2025 were All same blood pressures with no documentation on time BP was taken. LVN1 stated, This is not right. I don't think she would have same BP each time. During a concurrent interview and record review on 12/04/2025 at 5:57 PM with the Assistant Director of Nursing (ADON), Resident 2's November 2025 MAR was reviewed. The MAR indicated, duplicate blood pressure readings were documented for each orthostatic blood pressure order. ADON stated side effects of antipsychotic drug use are monitored to assess orthostatic blood pressure changes and potential fall hazards. ADON and LVN1 confirmed only one blood pressure was documented per shift. ADON validated documentation does not accurately reflect orthostatic blood pressure monitoring and increases risk for Resident 2 Becoming hypotensive and falling. During a concurrent interview and record review on 12/05/2025 at 12:20 PM with ADON, Resident 7 and 8's Note to Attending Physician/Prescriber, dated 11/06/2025 were reviewed.

F 0605 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Some During a review of Resident 18's, Order Summary Report, dated October 2025, November 2025 and December 2025, indicated Resident 18 was prescribed olanzapine (antipsychotic medication for the treatment of schizophrenia), oral tablet 5 milligrams, give one tablet by mouth every 24 hours as needed for agitation/psychosis (severe mental condition in which thought and emotions are so affected that contact is lost with external reality) which was started on 10/20/25 and did not have an end date, meaning the medication would have had a stop date for taking the medication. During a review of Resident 18's, Medication Regime Review dated 8/7/ 2025 conducted by the pharmacist indicated the medications the Resident 18 had been admitted to the facility were reviewed and no other pharmacist review had been conducted through to 12/4/2025 at the time of the survey.

LSA stated the reason why this medication does not have a stop date was that it was not prescribed by the usual doctors at the facility and this resident really needed the medication as it was written. The MAR was reviewed for November 2025, and it appeared that Resident 18 did not use or need the medication once that month, LSA stated she did not know anything about that, but Resident 18 had needed it in the past. LSA stated if this medication had been prescribed by the doctors at the facility, then it would have had a stop date at 14 days, so LSA stated they did not know why the medication did not have an end date. During a concurrent interview and record on 12/4/25 at 2:12 PM with Director of Nursing (DON), Resident 18's, Order Summary Report dated December 2025 was reviewed with the DON.

DON stated, as needed medication usually has a stop date of 14 days and DON stated they thought the order could be placed indefinitely if the behaviors were still in place and the resident needed the medication as ad needed bases than it would be acceptable. DON stated, as in this case, this medication does not need a stop date and can continue as needed indefinitely. During a review of the facility's policy and procedure titled, Medication Regime Review, dated 2001, indicated, 1. A licensed consultant pharmacist performs a medication regimen review (MRR) for every resident in the facility receiving medication.g. other medication errors, included related to documentation.1.

Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm **NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on observation, interview and record review, the facility did not ensure one out of two sampled residents (Resident 11) had adequate monitoring of their dialysis (a life sustaining medical treatment that filters waste products, excess fluid, and salt from the blood when kidneys fail, performing the kidneys job of cleaning the blood and balancing minerals) access site (a surgically created connected to the bloods stream that allows blood to be removed, cleaned by a dialysis machine); when it had been surgically changed from one site of the body to another.This failure in inadequate nursing assessment and documentation of Resident 11's current dialysis access stie had the potential for missed bleeding or other untoward side effects a dialysis resident could experience without adequate monitoring of the access site resulting in harm and even death.During a review of Resident 11's, admission Record, dated 6/19/24 indicated Resident 11 had been admitted to the facility on [DATE] with a history of diabetes and chronic kidney disease requiring dialysis treatment. During a review of Resident 1's, Order Summary Report dated December 2025, November 2025, October 2025 and September 2025, indicated Resident 11 had a physician order to Check A.V. (atrio-venous fistula, a surgically created connection between an artery and a vein, typically in the arm for hemodialysis) site to right upper chest dressing QS (every shift) leave intact for 4-6 hours following dialysis, change (dressing or bandage) if soiled or fallen off. If bleeding is noted from dialysis access site, immediately apply pressure to site to stop bleeding., also included the order for dialysis treatment to occur routinely on Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday at a specified offsite location The orders were written on 6/19/2024 and had not been discontinued when the surveyor had reviewed Resident 11's medical record on 12/3/25. During an observation and interview on 12/3/25 at 9:30 AM with Resident 11, Resident 11 was asked where the access for dialysis was located, and Resident 11 had pointed to the left upper arm bandage. Resident 11 was asked if there was anything on his chest and Resident 11 stated that there was nothing on his chest. Resident 11 was wearing a white t-shirt, and the surveyor was unable to observe anything underneath the shirt and no indication Resident 11 was unable to provide an accurate history. During a concurrent interview and medical record on 12/3/25 at 1:25 PM. with Director of Nursing (DON), DON, Resident 11's, Order Summary Report dated December 2025 and November 2025 was reviewed with the corresponding, Medication Administration Record (MAR) for December 2025 and November 2025 where the order to Check A.V. site to right upper chest dressing QS, leave intact for 4-6 hours following dialysis. was indicated for the nurses to document on the MAR each shift for each day of the month. DON stated when reviewing the physician order on the Order Summery Report for November and December 2025, that Resident 11 did not have an access sit on his right upper chest and that had been changed (surgically) in November 2025 and Resident 11's current access site for dialysis was on his left upper arm. All physicians' orders were reviewed, and no other access site physician orders were found. DON stated that it was strange, since the site had been changed back in November and Resident 11 no longer had an access site on his chest. DON was asked where the nurses would document Resident 11's access site and the MAR was reviewed for November and December 2025; where the same physician order of checking Resident 11's right upper chest order was found. The months of November 2025 and December 2025 indicated the nurses documented each day of the month that Resident 11's access site for dialysis was located on the chest compared to the current site of the left upper arm. DON stated they were aware of Resident 11's current left upper arm access site and was asked if documenting on the wrong site was a problem, DON stated it could be a problem if the nurses had no other place to document that the dialysis access site was clean, dry and intact but could not explain why the physician order had not been Residents Affected - Few (continued on next page) FORM CMS-2567 (02/99) Previous Versions Obsolete Event ID: Facility ID: 555276 If continuation sheet Page 11 of 18 Printed: 05/15/2026 Form Approved OMB No. 0938-0391 Department of Health & Human Services Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services STATEMENT OF DEFICIENCIES AND PLAN OF CORRECTION (X1) PROVIDER/SUPPLIER/CLIA IDENTIFICATION NUMBER: (X2) MULTIPLE CONSTRUCTION 555276 B.

DON was asked if there was a new nurse who did not know Resident 11 and viewed the physician orders, wouldn't they assess and document the old access site and not assess the current access site? DON stated Resident 11 would alert the nurse as to the current access site since he was very knowledgeable and would make sure the nurse assessed the correct access site. DON was asked since there was documentation that an audit was done every month to check the physician orders for accuracy for situations such as this why wasn't this update in Resident 11's current dialysis access caught, DON stated I do not know again I would have to look into this situation. During a concurrent interview and record review on 12/3/25 at 2:25 PM with Licensed Staff A (LSA), Resident 11's, Medication Administration Record (MAR) for November 2025 and December 2025 was reviewed. LSA reviewed the current date of 12/3/25 and reviewed the physician order of Check AV site to right upper chest. LSA reviewed the MAR with surveyor and stated that was the only place where the nursing would be able to document Resident 11's dialysis access site, even though LSA stated Resident 11 no longer had that as the current access site for dialysis. LSA stated as an example most dialysis days when Resident 11 was having dialysis, they would not see Resident 11 on day shift and would document not at the facility but on the days when Resident 11 was not having dialysis, then that's the only place to document that Resident 11's dialysis site was okay (not bleeding and the bandage were clean and dry). During a review of the facility's policy and procedure titled, Hemodialysis Catheters-Access and Care of dated 2001, indicated, Documentation The nurse should document in the resident's medical record every shift as follows: 1. Location of catheter (a flexible tube acting as an access point to the bloodstream for filtering waste and excess fluid). 2. Condition of dressing (bandage) (interventions if needed). 3. If dialysis was done during shift. 4. Any part of report dialysis nurse post - dialysis being given. 5. Observation post- dialysis.

These failures had the potential to cause harm from adverse consequences related to medication therapy, due to lack of timely implementation of pharmacy recommendations. 1. During a record review of Resident 18's, admission Record, dated 8/6/25, indicated Resident 18 was admitted to the facility 8/6/25 with a history of schizophrenia (a chronic brain disorder that disrupts how a person thinks, feels and behaves, causing them to lose touch with reality through symptoms like hallucinations (hearing/seeing things) and delusions (false beliefs), leading to disorganized thinking, difficulty with emotion and problems with focus) and low blood pressure. During a review of Resident 18's, Order Summary Report, dated October 2025, November 2025 and December 2025, indicated Resident 18 was prescribed olanzapine (antipsychotic medication for the treatment of schizophrenia), oral tablet 5 milligrams, give one tablet by mouth every 24 hours as needed for agitation/psychosis (severe mental condition in which thought and emotions are so affected that contact is lost with external reality) which was started on 10/20/25 and did not have an end date, meaning the medication would have had a stop date for taking the medication. During concurrent interview and record review on 12/4/25 at 12:21 PM with Licensed Nurse A (LNA), Resident 18's, Order Summary Report, dated December 2025 and Resident 18's, Medication Administration Record (MAR) dated December 2025 were reviewed. Resident 18's order for Olanzapine, 5 milligrams, one tablet by mouth every 24 as needed for agitation/psychosis. was reviewed and LNA stated the medication was prescribed or started on 10/20/25 and confirmed the facility policy for as needed medications was usually for doctors to only prescribe medications for 14 days at a time and then either renew the medication or discontinue. LSA stated the reason why this medication does not have a stop date was that it was not prescribed by the usual doctors at the facility and this resident really needed the medication as it was written. The MAR was reviewed for November 2025, and it appeared that Resident 18 was not administered or need the medication once that month, LSA stated she did not know anything about that, but Resident 18 had needed it in the past. LSA stated if this medication had been prescribed by one of the doctors at the facility, then it would have had a stop date at 14 days, and so LSA stated they did not know why the medication did not have an end date. During a concurrent interview and record review on 12/4/25 at 2:12 PM with Director of Nursing (DON), Resident 18's, Order Summary Report dated December 2025 was reviewed with the DON. [NAME] confirmed the olanzapine was prescribed as needed and the start date of 10/20/25 was confirmed. DON confirmed the facility policy was regarding as needed medications was to prescribe the medication for 14 days only. DON stated in this case with Resident 18, they continued to have the same behaviors necessitating the prescribed medication so it would then be acceptable to prescribe the mediation as needed but indefinitely without a stop date. 2.

DON was asked if there were any other reviews by the pharmacist and DON stated no, the pharmacist reviews were done on admission and then every quarter so Resident 18 would not have been due until later that month (December). DON stated that would have been the facility policy to have the resident medication reviews done every quarter after the initial admission. DON stated in the case of Resident 18 for example, there would have been no need to review their as needed medications stop dates since the application for a stop date did not apply to this particular resident for the olanzapine medication prescription.
