diagnoses which included CVA (stroke, occurs when blood flow to the brain is blocked or a vessel ruptures,
causing brain tissue damage), hemiplegia (form of paralysis affecting one side of the body, caused by brain
or spinal cord damage such as stroke, trauma, or congenital conditions), and hyperlipidemia (condition
characterized by abnormally high levels of lipids [fats] in the blood). Record review of Resident #32's

at 10:12 a.m., Resident #32 stated she missed her cholesterol medication injection at the end of January
and no one called the MD to let her know. Resident #32 stated it was very important to get the injection
because she had strokes in the past from having blockages in her arteries from cholesterol build up. She
stated her family brought the medication to the facility the day after it was due. She stated she worried
about it for two weeks until she got another injection. Resident #32 stated it had not caused her to miss

date it was due. LVN A stated there were no adverse effects to the resident because a lipid panel was done
when the MD was notified and her cholesterol was in normal limits. During an interview on 02/19/2026 at
2:30 p.m., the DON stated Resident #32 missed her injection of Repatha on 01/26/2026 because the family
member could not make it to the facility to bring it because of the ice storm. She stated it was worked out

medication or send the resident to the hospital if the MD felt the missed medication, was an urgent

the injection was given on 02/09/2026. She stated it was the responsibility of the floor nurses to ensure
medications were reordered and available for administration. The DON stated the nurses were instructed to
contact her immediately if they were having issues getting medications. During an interview on 02/19/2026
at 3:30 p.m., the ADM stated she expected the nurses to follow MD orders and contact the physician, the
