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, medical record review, and facility P&P review, the facility failed to ensure the medical record was
complete and accurately maintained for one of three sampled residents (Resident 1).
* Resident 1 had a blood sugar level of 58 mg/dL. There was no documentation a COC was initiated for the
blood sugar level of 58 mg/dL. Additionally, there was no documentation the resident's representative was
notified of the low blood sugar.
* Resident 1's vital signs were documented as taken after the resident had already been discharged from
the facility.
These failures had the potential for not providing the necessary care and services due to incomplete
medical record information.
Findings:
Review of the facility P&P titled Charting and Documentation revised 7/2017 showed the following:
1. Documentation in the medical record will be objective (not opinionated or speculative), complete, and
accurate.
2. The following information is to be documented in the resident medical record:
a. Objective observations;
b. Medications administered;
c. Treatment or services performed;
d. Changes in the resident's condition;
e. Events, incidents or accidents involving the resident; and
f. Progress toward or changes in the care plan goals and objectives.
3. Documentation of procedures and treatments will include care-specific details, including:

Review of the facility P&P titled Nursing Care of the Resident with Diabetes Mellitus revised 12/2015
showed approximate reference ranges for hypoglycemia are: mild hypoglycemia 55-70 mg/dL; moderate
hypoglycemia 40-55 mg/dL; and severe hypoglycemia < 40 mg/dL.
Closed medical record review for Resident 1 was initiated on 5/15/25. Resident 1 was admitted to the
facility on [DATE], and discharged to the acute care hospital on 6/17/24.
a. Review of Resident 1's Care Plan Report dated 5/31/24 showed the resident was at risk for
hypoglycemia (low blood sugar) and hyperglycemia (high blood sugar) related to diabetes (high blood
sugar).
Review of Resident 1's Progress Notes showed a late entry note dated 6/7/24, showed in the morning,
Resident 1 had a blood sugar level of 58 mg/dL. Resident was alert, oriented, answering the questions
appropriately and stating he felt fine. Resident 1 did not have any signs or symptoms of low blood sugars.
The vital signs were within normal limits. Resident 1 was given a glass of orange juice with two packets of
sugar. The resident's blood sugar was rechecked with a reading of 94 mg/dL.
Review of Resident 1's Weights and Vital Summary dated 6/7/24, did not show Resident 1's blood sugar
reading of 58 mg/dL.
Review of Resident 1's Medication Administration Record for June 2024 did not show Resident 1's blood
sugar reading of 58 mg/dL.
Review of Resident 1's eINTERACT Version 5.0 did not show Resident 1 had a COC for low blood sugar
level of 58 mg/dL.
On 5/23/25 at 1028 hours, and interview and concurrent closed medical record review was conducted with
LVN 1. LVN 1 stated the process for a COC would be to open the eINTERACT COC form, which included
notifying the physician and resident's representative. When asked what the parameters for hypoglycemia
would be, LVN 1 stated for the blood sugar levels below 70 mg/dL. When asked if the blood sugar levelof 58
mg/dL would require a COC, LVN 1 stated yes definitely, they should have done a COC. When asked if
there was a COC for Resident 1's blood sugar level of 58 mg/dL, LVN 1 stated unfortunately no, not even a
daily skilled note. LVN 1 verified the findings.
On 5/23/25 at 1500 hours, an interview and concurrent closedmedical record review was conducted

with the DON. The DON stated a blood sugar level below 70 mg/dL would indicate hypoglycemia. The DON

COC, the DON stated it should andthat was why they notified the physician. When asked if there was a
