F 0758 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Few Implement gradual dose reductions(GDR) and non-pharmacological interventions, unless contraindicated, prior to initiating or instead of continuing psychotropic medication; and PRN orders for psychotropic medications are only used when the medication is necessary and PRN use is limited. **NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on interview and record review, the facility failed to follow the prn (as needed) guidelines for psychotropic medications (medications which alters the mind) for one of five residents (Resident 33) selected for Medication Review, when: 1. A specific behavior was not documented, indicating the necessity of a prn psychotropic medication; and 2. The physician did not document a rationale for the continued use of a prn psychotropic medication beyond the 14-day limit. This failure had the potential for Resident 33 to have increased risk of side effects and a prolonged duration of use. Findings: 1 Resident 33 was admitted to the facility on [DATE], with diagnoses which included non-traumatic intracerebral hemorrhage (bleeding in the brain), per the facility's Resident Face Sheet. On 7/10/24 Resident 33's clinical record was viewed: According to the physician's order, dated 3/17/24, Lorazepam (a drug used to treat anxiety, which act on the brain and nerves), 0.5 milligrams (mg) give twice a day, by mouth, under the tongue as needed for anxiety and/or shortness of breath. Open Ended. The Medication Administration Record (MAR) was reviewed from June 1, 2024, through July 12, 2024. On the June 2024 MAR, nursing documented Lorazepam was administered four times. The documented reasons for administration were listed as: crying inconsolable, yelling out, anxiety with agitation as exhibited by screaming and anxiety manifested by screaming. On the July 2024 MAR nursing documented Lorazepam was administered once. The documented reasons was listed as: yelling out and restlessness. On 7/11/24 at 7:59 A.M., an interview was conducted with Licensed Nurse 10 (LN 10). LN 10 stated Resident 33 was removed from hospice (end of life care) on 3/8/24, and her medication regimen was continued. LN 10 stated psychotropic prn medications required a specific behavior to be exhibited before the medication could be administered. LN 10 stated Resident 33 exhibits the behavior of yelling out constantly, either calling out her son's name or yelling for help. On 7/12/24 at 8:28 A.M., an interview was conducted with the Director of Nursing (DON). The DON stated Resident 33's physician listed a behavior of anxiety for the administration of prn Lorazepam, which was not a specific behavior.

F 0758 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm anxiety was subjected and open to interpretation. LN 11 stated anxiety was a generalized behavior and not specific, such as attempting to get out of bed, excessive crying, or striking out at staff. LN 11 stated the documented behavior must be exhibited before administrating a prn psychotropic medication. LN 11 stated it was the physician's responsibility to list the specific behavior and it was the nurse's responsibility to ensure a specific behavior was listed. Residents Affected - Few On 7/12/24 at 10:15 A.M., an interview and record review was conducted with the Minimum Data Set Nurse (MDSN). The MDSN stated she sat on the psychotropic review committee, which met every quarter. The MDSN reviewed Resident 33's order for Lorazepam prn and stated anxiety was not a specific behavior and was open to interpretation. The MDSN stated a specific behavior should be listed, so staff knew under what circumstances they should administer the medication. The MDSN stated psychotropic medications had the potential to cause serious side effects. According to the facility's policy, titled Antipsychotropic Medication Use, dated December 2016, .13. Residents will not receive a PRN dose of psychotropic medications unless that medication is necessary to treat a specific condition that is documented in the clinical record . 2. Resident 33 was admitted to the facility on [DATE], with diagnoses which included non-traumatic intracerebral hemorrhage (bleeding in the brain), per the facility's Resident Face Sheet. On 7/10/24 Resident 33's clinical record was viewed: According to the physician's order, dated 3/17/24, Lorazepam (a drug used to treat anxiety, which act on the brain and nerves), 0.5 milligrams (mg) give twice a day, by mouth, under the tongue as needed for anxiety and/or shortness of breath. Open Ended. On 7/11/24 at 7:59 A.M., an interview was conducted with LN 10. LN 10 stated prn psychotropic medications expired every 14-days. Once the medication expired, the physician was required to write a new order and to document in the progress notes why the medication was being renewed with a justification of its necessity. On 7/12/24 at 8:28 A.M., an interview was conducted with the DON. The DON stated she was aware the physician was required to write a justification when renewing a 14-day prn psychotropic medication. The DON stated she has informed all the physician's that this was a Federal requirement. The DON stated she does not believe Resident 33 had experienced any harm from the continued use of prn Lorazepam, but agreed they were not following the Federal regulation set by CMS (Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Service). On 7/12/24 at 10:05 A.M. a review of the facility's monthly Medication Regimen Review (MRR) binder was conducted. The consulting pharmacist (CP) made the following recommendations for Resident 33 in March and April 2024; The patient has orders for PRN Lorazepam. Please clarify a STOP DATE or if needed to continue beyond 14 days then the MD (Medical Doctor) needs to document the reason why in progress notes or on this letter. The March 2024 MRR contained a handwritten note from the physician which read may stop it, however the medication was continued. The April 2024 MRR contained no documentation from the MD. There were no recommendations made for May and June of 2024 from the CP, even though the prn Lorazepam was renewed every 14-days. On 7/12/24, Resident 33's physician progress notes were reviewed from May 2024 through July 2024.

F 0758 Lorazepam. Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm On 7/12/24 at 10:15 A.M., an interview and record review was conducted with the MDSN of Resident 33's MRR for March through June 2024. The MDSN stated she sat on the psychotropic review committee, which met every quarter. The MDSN stated the physician was required to document a justification each time a 14-day prn psychotropic medication was renewed. The MDSN reviewed Resident 33's MRR and stated the consulting pharmacist made the recommendation to discontinue the Lorazepam or else write the reason why it was renewed and required. The MDSN could not find any documentation in the MRR from Resident 33's physician indicating the prn psychotropic medication was justified for continued use. Residents Affected - Few On 7/12/24 at 11:04 A.M., a voice message was left for Resident 33's physician asking for a return call. The physician did not return the call. On 7/12/24 at 1:51 P.M., an interview was conducted with the Consulting Pharmacist (CP). The CP stated Resident 33's prn psychotropic recommendations was based on the Federal requirement, which required the physician to provide a written justification for renewing the 14-day prn. The CP stated she noticed there was no written justification, so the recommendation was made to the physician. According to the facility' policy, titled Antipsychotropic Medication Use, dated December 2016, .14.

F 0842 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Few Safeguard resident-identifiable information and/or maintain medical records on each resident that are in accordance with accepted professional standards. **NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on interview and record review, the facility failed to ensure information in one of 13 resident's (Resident 3) medical/clinical record was readily accessible. As a result, it could not be determined if Resident 3 had been administered a controlled medication (medication with high potential for abuse). Findings: A review of Resident 3's admission Record indicated the resident was readmitted to the facility on [DATE]. On 7/11/24 at 4 P.M., copies of Resident 3's physician's orders, medication administration record (MAR), and controlled drug record (CDR, a written record that tracked when a controlled medication was removed from supply) for the resident's lorazepam (a controlled medication) 0.5 milligram tablets was requested from the medical records director (MRD). The MRD confirmed the requested documents would be available by 8 A.M. the following day. On 7/12/24, Resident 3's lorazepam 0.5 mg order, MAR, and CDR were reviewed. Resident 3's CDR indicated the resident's lorazepam had been removed from supply on: 6/26/24 at 6 A.M. 6/27/24 at 6 A.M. 6/28/24 at 6 A.M. 6/29/24 at 6 A.M. 6/30/24 at 6 A.M. Resident 3's MAR did not reflect the resident had been administered the lorazepam 0.5 mg on 6/26/24 through 6/30/24 at 6 A.M. A review of Resident 3's physician orders indicated the resident's 6 A.M. dose of lorazepam 0.5 mg had been discontinued on 6/25/24. On 7/12/24 at 1 P.M., an interview was conducted with licensed nurse (LN) 11. LN 11 stated when administering a controlled medication to a resident, the LN had to sign the CDR and then sign off on the MAR to show that the resident received the medication. On 7/12/24 at 1:08 P.M., an interview was conducted with the director of nursing (DON). The DON was notified that Resident 3's MAR did not reflect the administration of lorazepam 0.5 mg on 6/26/24 through 6/30/24 at 6 A.M. The DON stated she would review the resident's medical record for that documentation.

F 0842 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Few On 7/12/24 at 2:10 P.M., an interview was conducted with the DON. The MRD was also present. The DON stated they were unable to retrieve the requested documentation from Resident 3's medical record. The DON stated this was not a medication diversion (when a controlled medication was unaccounted for and used for illegal purposes), but a matter of the resident's complete MAR being unavailable. The DON stated all of Resident 3's medical/clinical record should have been readily accessible and it was not. The DON acknowledged that because Resident 3's complete MAR was not accessible, it could not be determined if the resident had received her lorazepam. A review of the facility's policy titled Electronic Medical Records revised March 2014, did not provide guidance related to residents' medical records being readily accessible.
