Level of Harm - Potential for minimal harm Based on observation, interview, and record review, the facility failed to ensure nurse staffing data including the facility name, the current date, the total number and the actual hours worked was posted and readily accessible to residents and visitors for 2 (05/14/24 and 05/15/24) of 3 days reviewed for nurse staffing information. Residents Affected - Many The facility failed to post the required staffing information on 05/14/24 and 05/15/24. The facility failed to post the required staffing information in a prominent place readily accessible to residents and visitors on 05/14/24. These failures could place residents, their families, and facility visitors at risk of not having access to information regarding staffing data and facility census. Findings included: An observation on 05/14/24 from 9:42 AM to 9:45 AM revealed no posted staffing information readily accessible. During an observation and interview on 05/14/24 at 9:47 AM, the DON stated the posting was on the bulletin board at the nurse's station. The data sheet was in a plastic sleeve, posted on a bulletin board between several other hanging documents intended for nursing staff. The bulletin board was behind the nurse's station. The document did not contain the facility name. An observation on 05/15/24 at 11:06 AM revealed the posted staffing document did not contain the facility name. The document was dated 06/15/24. An observation on 05/16/24 at 8:51 AM revealed the posted staffing document dated 06/15/24 was still posted. During an interview on 05/15/24 at 9:30 AM, the Corporate Nurses stated the facility did not have a policy regarding posted staffing. During an interview on 05/16/24 at 4:17 PM, the ADM stated he expected the posted staffing to be completed daily and accurately. He stated the page that was dated wrong was a clerical/human thing that could be easily fixed. He stated he believed the form had been updated on 5/15/24 when they were made aware of the error. He stated that other than the one day with the wrong date, the facility consistently posted the information daily. During an interview on 05/17/24 at 9:30 AM, the DON stated it was her expectation that the staffing be posted daily. She stated they recently changed to the staffing coordinator posting the document, previously, the ADON had been responsible. She stated not having the numbers posted could lead to family members who think there should have been more staff and that could turn into a customer service issue. Review of the facility Nursing Department Staffing documents for the last 30 days revealed the facility name was not listed on the documents.

She stated where she was from, they call it burping but it is the same thing as priming the needle. She stated there was so much going on and she thought she had attached the needle prior to burping it. She stated she was aware that the procedure must be done ever time prior to giving the insulin or the resident may not get the proper dose. Residents Affected - Some During an interview on 05/16/24 at 4:17 PM, the ADM stated he expected medications to be administered as ordered and per the manufacturer's guidelines. He stated adverse outcomes could range from severe to benign (meaning almost nothing) depending on the situation. During an interview on 05/17/24 at 9:15 AM, the DON verbalized the process for ordering over the counter medications. She stated the med aides were supposed to notify the nurse if a medication was not available. She stated there was an order form the med aide filled in and dated.

Review of the Insulin Administration policy, revised September 2014, reflected in part, Preparation 5. The nursing staff will have access to specific instructions (from the manufacturer if appropriate) on all forms of insulin delivery system(s) prior to their use.

The policy did not reflect any other information regarding insulin pens. Review of the Administering Medication policy, revised April 2019, reflected in part, 10. The individual administering the medication checks the label THREE (3) times to verify the right resident, right medication, right dosage, right time and right method (route) of administration before giving the medication. 14. Insulin pens containing multiple doses of insulin are for single-resident use only. Changing the needle does not make it safe to use insulin pens for more than one resident. 15. Insulin pens are clearly labeled with the resident's name or other identifying information. Prior to administering insulin with an insulin pen, the nurse verifies that the correct pen is used for that resident.

LVN A stated that the carts should be locked at all times. LVN A stated that stated she forgot to lock the med cart. A potential negative outcome of an unlocked med cart was that residents could get into the cart, medications or any other supplies inside of the med cart.

Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm An interview conducted on 05/15/24 at 10:50 AM with ADON revealed that she was not aware of the expired medications in the medication room [ROOM NUMBER]. She stated that a potential negative outcome of providing expired medications to a resident was that it can cause an adverse reaction to the resident. ADON stated that the expectation was that residents do not receive expired medications, and the medications should be thrown away as soon as possible. Residents Affected - Some An interview was completed with Administrator on 05/16/2024 at 04:35PM revealed that the expectation for expired medications is that they should be disposed of properly and follow the proper process. Administrator stated a potential negative outcome of providing expired medications to residents is that multiple outcomes could occur anywhere from something bad to something nothing at all. He stated depending on the medication could cause death. The expectation for dating medications is that it should be done in compliance within regulation and manufacture. He believes that the staff should be labeling it when they open the medication and place into the cart and stored properly. He stated that a new employee has been hired to ensure that medications are labeled properly. He stated that once this employee starts working, the goal is to have a plan for how often the medication expiration dates are checked. An interview conducted on 05/17/2024 at 09:48AM with MA G revealed that medication administration rights included right route, right dose, right patient, right documentation, right time. MA G stated that steps that she takes to ensure that medications are not expired is to go through her med cart every day and compare it with the expiration date. She stated a potential negative outcome of providing expired medications to residents is that they could get sick. The process for expired medications is to put it in the expired medication box inside of the med room or give to the DON. An interview conducted on 05/17/2024 at 09:52AM with RN A revealed that medication administration rights included right dose, right patient, right route, right documentation and right time. RN M stated that before providing medications she ensures the medication is not expired by looking at the expiration dates on the bottles. A potential negative outcome of providing expired medications to a resident is negative side effects. The process to remove expired medications from the cart is to put them in the discontinued box waiting for the pharmacist to come and destroy them. An interview on 05/17/2024 at 10:30 AM with DON revealed that the expectation for expired medications is that they should be removed from the medication cart, placed in the medication room for destruction, and then logged. A potential negative outcome of residents receiving expired medications is that it depends on the medication, but it could be dangerous.
