interviews, and record review, the facility failed to ensure residents were receiving person-centered Quality
of Care for 1 residents (CR#1 ) of 8 residents reviewed.
Residents Affected - Some
The facility failed to ensure CR #1 was properly transferred from the floor to the bed when displaying
signs/symptoms of a fracture (pain, deformity, etc). CR #1 sustained a hip fracture.
The facility failed to acknowledge CR#1's verbal complaint of pain by picking her up off the floor possibly
causing more harm.
The facility failed to follow physician orders and administer CR #1's pain medication (PRN).
This failure could affect residents currently residing in the facility resulting in not receiving needed care to
maintain optimum health and placing them at risk for injury and/or deterioration in their condition.
An Immediate Jeopardy (IJ) was identified on [DATE] at 4:34 p.m. While the IJ was removed on [DATE] at
7:22pm, the facility remained out of compliance at the severity level of no actual harm with potential for
more than minimal harm that is not immediate jeopardy with a scope identified as pattern due to the
facility's need to evaluate the effectiveness of the corrective systems.
These failures placed residents at risk of physical harm, emotional distress, mental anguish, and death.

During a interview on [DATE] at 4:05pm with LVN A, she stated CNA B returned to the nursing desk and
said CR#1 was on the floor and bleeding. She stated when she arrived at CR#1's room she observed CR#1
on floor, face down, and bleeding from her face. LVN A stated she did not assist in putting resident in the
bed. She stated she noted there was a laceration above CR#1 eye area where she was bleeding. Stated at
no time had the roommate come to the desk. Stated WCN did vitals and cleaned up resident face before
leaving. Stated she arrived in the room and told WCN, CR#1 needed to go to the hospital she hit her head.
This was after 6am. Stated CNA C called 911. She worked 300 Hall. LVN A stated CR#1 was stated she
needed crème for her hip.
Residents Affected - Some
During a telephone interview on [DATE] at 5:06pm with CNA D stated she was not assigned the 100 hall
and CR#1 was not on her list. She stated she heard CR#1 had fallen.
During a follow Up Interview on [DATE] at 10:00pm with CNA A, she was asked to clarify the earlier
interview. CNA A stated she was assigned to 100 hall but was 30 minutes late. She stated she arrived at
6:30am. CNA A stated when she got on the 100 hall, she was informed by another CNA that CR#1 had
fallen. She stated she went in the room and the WCN was cleaning blood off CR#1's face, while she was
lying on her bed. CNA A stated WCN directed her to get additional towels and blankets so that he could
clean the blood off the floor as he was stepping in it. CNA A stated about 10 minutes later (6:40am) EMS
arrived at CR#1's door.
During a telephone interview on [DATE] at 10:15pm with CNA E, she stated she worked the 100 hall and
was responsible for CR#1. She stated she worked on ([DATE]) Tuesday night (10:00pm -6:00am). CNA E
stated she made her last round between 4:30am-4:45am. She stated CR#1 was in her bed. CNA E stated
its really odd that CR#1 fell out of bed, since the resident is bedbound and rarely moves. CNA E stated she
clocked out at 6:15am and there were no issues with the resident.
During an Interview on [DATE] at 4:00pm with DON, she stated the protocol for unwitnessed fall with injury
was staff should alert nurse, complete patient assessment, stay with patient, depending on nursing
assessment patient can go out to hospital and MD, family notified. The DON stated staff should not move a
resident with a head injury; unless the resident is in a position where additional harm may exist, then the
nurses are to use their judgement.
The DON stated CR#1 should have been moved to determine what could be done in house until EMS
arrives. She further stated CR#1 should have been picked up and placed in bed based on the nursing
assessment. She stated CR#1 did hit her head; however, there were no bulging and/or abnormalities to
determine if she needed to stay on the floor or moved. DON stated in this case, CR#1, after nursing
assessments, there were no abnormalities. The DON stated 911 was called because of head bleeding. It
was considered an emergency because she was on blood thinners. DON stated she was notified at 6:30am
and believes staff followed protocol in CR#1's case and there is nothing she would have expected
differently. She reiterated she believed what nursing staff did what they had to do to get CR#1 treatment.
DON stated CR#1 was not mobile. She stated CR#1 could wiggle but not sit up on her own. DON stated
that speaking with nursing staff that work with CR#1, she was able to scootch her body. DON stated she
feels like CR#1 may have scooted and slid off the side of the bed. The DON stated CR#1 could feed herself
slightly, but staff would have to straighten her up in the bed to eat. The DON stated she has never had an
extensive conversation with CR#1 but stated she could ask for drinks from time to time and she would give
it to her. DON stated CR#1 was not in therapy.

Residents Affected - Some
Surveyor confirmed the facility implemented their plan of removal and monitoring began on [DATE].
During a telephone interview[DATE] 11:42pm with LVN B stated she had training before her shift started.
Stated the training was on abuse and neglect, reporting incidents. She stated the Admin and ADON took
employees to office, where the employees were given a posttest then training. She stated abuse can be
identified by bruises on a resident, or when resident says don't hurt me when providing care, the resident is
jumpy and acting in an unusual behavior like scared. LVN B stated the assessment training was about falls,
etc , which when a resident has a witnessed or unwitnessed fall, a full body assessment should be
completed immediately. Any incident of finding resident do not move call 911. Stated if any resident is
bleeding from head, I call 911 immediately. LVN stated nursing staff should never leave resident by
themselves always have someone with resident. The head-to-toe assessment consists of checking entire
body, vital signs, check body for any injuries, if able, move patient limbs ROM. All nursing staff is required to
document in PCC (nursing notes) and complete an incident report. She stated she worked the morning that
the situation occurred with CR#1 but did not assist anyone in putting resident in the bed.
During a telephone interview [DATE] 11:59pm with LVN A - Stated she received training on full body
assessments. Call 911 tell them that it is an emergency. Abuse coordinator is the Administration. LVN A
stated the ADON gave a pretest on falls and abuse. They were true false questions on falls and abuse.
Stated a resident with a fall and obvious head injuries complete assessments, take vitals, call MD and EMS
services if need to be sent out. Stated it's important to document on an incident report and transferred to
the nurses' notes in PCC. LVN A stated and another lady got her off the floor. One leg was bent under the
other. Stated her leg was folded. Not sure if it was a fixed position. Believes it was a left leg under the right
folded at a 45-degree angle. A resident should never be left alone, and someone should be with the
resident at all times because anything can happen. LVNA stated she believe the CNA that assisted WCN
was CNA D.
During a telephone interview[DATE] at 12:20am with CNA E stated she had in service 3-4 times this week.
CNA E stated she had a training on abuse and neglect. Completed a quiz a true or false test. Stated if she
comes up on a resident that has fallen, she will summon her nurse, ensure resident is secured if alone, and
call out loud from hallway to get a nurse. She stated there should always be an urgency. Stated if a resident
was on ground you don't touch until a nurse is available to assess them then follow their directions. Stated
an example of abuse was refusing to clean patient, using resident personal property for own personal gain,
and physical abuse. She stated she did not assist resident in bed. She did not know CR#1 had fallen.
During a telephone interview on [DATE] at 12:35am with CNA I stated she was on vacation the last (two) 2
weeks and returned last night. Stated she had in-service training on abuse, reporting, posttest. Abuse is
verbally badgering a resident; an example of exploitation is personal gain for something that belongs to a
resident. If you see resident on floor, do not touch, go, and get nurse, stated after the nurse completes her
assessment the nurse will instruct you on whether the resident can be moved. You must follow instructions
given by the nurse. Was not at the facility when CR#1 fell. If there is a fall or other unusual activities it
should be reporter to nursing staff and followed up by

Level of Harm - Immediate
jeopardy to resident health or
safety
During an Interview on [DATE] at 6:15am with CNA D stated she has been in serviced on abuse and 911
calls. She stated she learned that to call 911 you have to say it's an emergency. CNA D stated she would
call 911 if nurse tells her to call, she will call. CNA D stated the types of abuse are physical, can't hit
residents. If an employee put their hands on a resident, it should be reported to nurse or the DON and
ADON and Admin. Admin was the Abuse Coordinator. CNA D stated some of the s/s of resident abuse are
observed by bruises or suspicious injuries on the resident's body. CNA D stated she just helped the WCN
pick CR#1 up off the floor, she was doing patient care on another resident. She stated CNA B came and
got her and said CR#1 was on the floor. CNA D was leaving room [ROOM NUMBER] and then went to
resident room and CR#1 was on the floor. CNA D said CR#1's head was at the headboard and her feet
were at the floorboard and CR#1 was laying on her side right side, but head was on the floor. CNA D stated
she was shaken up because she had never seen CR#1 move. She stated the staff in the room when she
arrived was WCN, CNA B, and CNA C. CNA D stated she thought WCN did an assessment on CR#1, but
wasn't because she walked out of the room. WCN had CR#1 from the shoulders and CNA D had her legs.
Before picking her up he checked temp, blood pressure and asked her what day it was. She picked her up
and then walked out, she couldn't see her like that. CR#1 said she needed cream for her right hip, but she
says that every day. CNA D noticed that her hip looked like it was out of place, after she got her in the bed,
she said it looked like something was wrong with her hip. Her leg was just limp. She told WCN that and he
had CNA C call 911. It was the WCN's idea to pick her up off the ground. She said she didn't realize the hip
looked like that until they got her in the bed. She said she didn't think she could have injured her she had
her ankles. WCN's arms were under CR#1's arm pit cradled, and CNA D had her ankles. The bed was low.
CR#1 did not have a scoop mattress.

intervene if she was witnessing abuse and would report immediately. She stated one sign of abuse is when
a resident has been physically abused and their behavior changes. CNA F stated s/s of abuse is residents
being jumpy, saying don't hurt me, suspicious injuries, bruises. She stated when told to call 911 you must
tell them it's an emergency. With unwitnessed or witnessed falls, the nurses perform head to toe

During an Interview on 3/5/2025 at 2:50pm with WCN stated he heard CR#1 complain her hip was hurting
and there was no pain in her head. WCN stated after A completed the assessment, and he ruled out any
head injury, he felt it was okay to move resident to the bed. He stated he and LVN A picked CR#1 up and
put her in the bed. WCR stated CR#1 sustained a 1cm gash above her, he believes, right eye. WCN stated
after CR#1 continued to be complained about her hip he directed CNA C to call 911.
During an Interview on 3/6/2025 at 4:00pm with DON, she stated the protocol for unwitnessed fall with
injury was staff should alert nurse, complete patient assessment, stay with patient, depending on nursing
assessment patient can go out to hospital and MD, family notified. The DON stated staff should not move a
resident with a head injury; unless the resident is in a position where additional harm may exist, then the
nurses are to use their judgement.
The DON stated CR#1 should have been moved to determine what could be done in house until EMS
arrives. She further stated CR#1 should have been picked up and placed in bed based on the nursing
assessment. She stated CR#1 did hit her head; however, there were no bulging and/or abnormalities to
determine if she needed to stay on the floor or moved. DON stated in this case, CR#1 could be moved,

CR#1 was on the floor. CNA D said CR#1's head was at the headboard and her feet were at the floorboard
and CR#1 was laying on her side right side, but head was on the floor.
CNA D stated WCN had CR#1 from the shoulders and CNA D had her legs. Before picking her up he
checked temp, blood pressure and asked her what day it was. She picked her up and then walked out, she
couldn't see her like that. She stated CR#1 said she needed cream for her right hip, but she says that every
day. CNA D noticed that her hip looked like it was out of place, after she got her in the bed, she said it
looked like something was wrong with her hip. Her leg was just limp. She told WCN that and he had CNA C
call 911. It was the WCN's idea to pick her up off the ground. She said she didn't realize the hip looked like
that until they got her in the bed. She said she didn't think she could have injured her she had her ankles.
WCN's arms were under CR#1's arm pit cradled, and CNA D had her ankles. The bed was low. CR#1 did
not have a scoop mattress.
During an Interview on 3/8/2025 at 6:54am with ADON he stated no one should ever move a resident
unless assessment determines no harm was done. ADON stated he does not have x-ray vision so he would
ask the resident about pain and if resident says no pain, then its ok, but if the resident says they have hip
pain, that resident should not be moved and staff would want call ambulance, because a stretcher would
stabilize the resident. You don't want to further injure the resident. ADON stated every resident that hits the
floor doesn't mean that they fractured something. He stated that what's included in an assessment, is pain
level, resident alertness, bleeding, bruising, anything new scarring skin tears. All vitals, blood pressure,
pulse, oxygen, blood sugars, O2 sats and temperature should be documented in the computer
(PCC-Nursing Notes). ADON stated if it's not documented it's not done.
During a Telephone Interview on 3/8/25 at 7:00pm with DON- stated a head-to-toe assessment was for
emergency situations was to assess the resident for pain or injury, alertness, consciousness, abnormalities,
broken bones, bleeding, and breathing. The DON stated she was notified of CR#1's fall at 6:31am. The
DON stated the proper way to move the resident off the floor is to ensure resident and staff are not injured
during the move. She stated two people must pick up a person from the floor.
The DON stated staff were to make sure patient is secured from floor to bed, the upper body, lower body
should be secured. The DON stated when picking up residents you are not to grab them by their clothing or
ankles. She stated the lower body was described as grabbing the resident under their bottom and the other
hand supporting their legs and lifting them up. The upper body was supporting their head and back. She
stated sometimes during a residents' fall, getting a Hoyer lift may create more time for transporting resident
off the floor.
The DON stated that based on what the nurses told her during CR#1's assessment, she would not do
anything differently. She stated she also spoke with the Medical Director and the doctor was also in
agreement with nursing staff's actions.
An Immediate Jeopardy (IJ) was identified on 03/27/2025 at 4:34 p.m. While the IJ was lowered on
03/29/2025 at 3:30pm, the facility remained out of compliance at the severity level of no actual harm with
potential for more than minimal harm that is not immediate jeopardy with a scope identified as pattern due

During a telephoned Interview on 3/4/25 at 10:02am with FM stated CR #2 is no longer able to walk, talk,
eat or swallow because of sepsis in his blood from having a serious UTI that the facility would not ensure
he received his medicine for. FM stated her Resident #2 came to the facility because of his chronic UTI and
Infusion (antibiotics through IV). She stated her Resident #2 had a picc line (a thin, flexible tube inserted
into a vein near the heart), which is where the antibiotics were administered by a nurse. She stated the UTI
is a chronic issue for CR #2. FM stated CR #2 did not have sepsis when he was released from the hospital
February 13, 2025. FM stated she came to the facility Tuesday February 25, 2025, at 9:00am. Stated she
gave CR #2 a kiss on his forehead and his eyes were rolling in the back of his head. She spoke with the
nurse at this time. She stated she was a little irritated that the nurse didn't know he had a temperature but
did not checked vitals. She stated ADON A came to the room and the nurse was finally getting the
temperature. She stated the nurse took Resident #2's temperature and it was 102.8 and he appeared to be
lethargic. At this time, she requested CR #2 to be put on oxygen. She stated CR #2 had received orders
when he was released from the hospital on February 13, 2025, for antibiotics due to his UTI. FM stated at
this time she was informed by the ADON A, that the medication (Tobramycin) for his UTI that was ordered
on February 13, 2025, was never administered, and had expired because the Dialysis never gave it to him
per hospital orders. FM stated this negligence caused CR #2 to have a more serious UTI and infection in
his blood. FM stated ADON A told her the dialysis people were supposed to give the anti-biotics through the
picc line, but they hadn't as of this date. She further stated the ADON A told her the medication had
expired; however, due to CR #2's fever, ADON A administered a medication called, Rocephin (used for
infections). FM stated after being administered the shot CR #2 immediately broke out into a profuse sweat
all over his body. The ADON A told her that CR #2 was breaking his fever and that the sweating was okay.
FM stated she's not sure how long CR #2 had been in this feverish lethargic condition. She stated facility
sent CR #2 out to the hospital early that morning and never called her to even ensure he was sent out. She
stated CR #2 had fallen a few weeks ago and now he has seizures. She stated CR #2 was in ICU a few
weeks ago before he was released from the hospital, he now has had dialysis and he had the dialysis port,
which is how the medication for his UTI was to be administered. FM stated the ADON told her that CR #2
would get antibiotics in the dialysis, but failed to tell her Dialysis never gave him the anti-biotics. She stated
now the infection has spread from a UTI to Blood Infection.
During an Interview on 3/4/25 at 2:44pm with ADON stated CR #2 was sent to hospital because he was
lethargic. He stated there was an order for Tobramycin, an antibiotic for the UTI, which was

identified through labs while at the hospital. ADON A stated CR #2 returned to facility from hospital on
2.13.25. The CR #2 also returned from hospital with and order to be given 3 doses of tobramycin over the
next 3 dialysis services which was to be administered after dialysis session, starting February 14, 2025.
The ADON A stated he personally sent the medication to dialysis, along with the order from hospital. He
stated he did not know that the initial dose was not administered to CR #2 until he went into the medicine
refrigerator on February 17, 2025, to retrieve CR #2's second dose. At this time, he stated he seen the
initial dose from February 14, 2025. He stated he immediately called Dialysis and was informed that their
protocol was to receive an email from the hospital, and they would fill the medication through their own
system. The ADON A stated they further told him that they are not allowed to accept medication. ADON
stated resident had been without the medication for a week and he wasn't getting any antibiotics during that
time. He stated he called the doctor. Stated the Dr stated to send the order to dialysis, but ADON A told her
that they refused to administer. At this time, he was given an order from the NP to put an IV in Resident
#2's arm so facility nurses could administer the antibiotic. He stated on February 17, 2025, at 1:13pm,
attempted prevention measures by trying to put an IV in Resident #2's arm and he refused on 2/17/25 at
1:13pm and again on 2/18/25 at 10:11am. The ADON A stated with Resident refusal for the IV port, the
medication expired. ADON A stated he received an order from the NP to administer the Rocephin 1mg and
Tylenol 650. He stated he was not aware that Resident #2 began to sweat profusely. He stated Resident #2
was talking to his FM during this time. The ADON stated on 2/20/2024, he faxed the order to dialysis in
hopes of them filling the Thrombosis prescription. He stated he called dialysis to let them know he just
faxed the order and was told they did not have the medication and it would take 7-10 to get it.
During an Interview on 3/5/2025 at10:00am with HAP- HAP stated CR #2 had an admittance from February
5, 2025 and discharged on February 13, 2025. HAP stated on February 6, 2025, CR #2 labs showed he
had a bacteria called pseudomonas, which is why he was prescribed Tobramycin. He stated there was an
order for the medication to be administered by dialysis staff after his procedure. The antibiotic was for three
doses. He stated the medication should have been given by the dialysis staff through the dialysis IV port,
not the facility staff. He stated that according to the records, on February 11, 2025, at 10:00am, dialysis
was set up by the hospital social worker. At this time, the order was given to the dialysis staff. HAP stated
that there must have been a mix-up in the communication between the hospital, dialysis, and the facility.
However, he stated that the attending physician at the nursing facility should've figured it out even if CR #2
was sent back to the hospital to get the medication. This medicine was extremely important as the resident
had an active bacterium. HAP stated CR #2 return to the hospital, February 26, 2025, and he now has a
different bacteria called Staphylococcus Aureus. The order for Tobramycin would not have been affective for
CR #2 anyway. Therefore, the resident, even if he had taken, the order would not have gotten better
because he had a different bacterium. Doctor indicated that both bacteria are more healthcare bacteria,
where they are contracted in healthcare rehab facilities.
During an Interview on 3/5/25 at 12:10pm with Dialysis CNM who stated he was made aware CR #2 was to
receive 3 doses of Tobramycin; however, dialysis did not receive any notification from the hospital which is
protocol. CR #2's first dialysis appointment was 2/14/2025. States the order was sent with medication and
they don't take orders from other doctors. He also stated there was no medicine on hand at this time. He
stated he received a fax order from the facility on February 20, 2025, and the medicine arrived at the
Dialysis center on February 28, 2025. He stated they have no records of the orders from the hospital on
2/11/2025.

told her that based on CR#2's wounds he would require surgery to insert a rectal tube. She stated the
doctor reiterated CR#2's should be strongly considered for Hospice due the wound and blood infection.
During a follow up Interview on 3/10/2025 at 9:45am with FM - who stated the facility never called and say
CR#2 was refusing medication. The facility would call FM when he needed a shower and was refusing, then
family would talk with CR#2 and CR#2 would comply.
Residents Affected - Few
During a follow-up Interview on 3/11/2025 at 10:00am with FM stated the facility has always called her or
another family member whenever CR #2 would refuse showers. She stated either of them would come to
the facility and assist staff in giving Resident #2 his showers. FM stated this has happened on at least two
occasions. She stated other times the facility had called was when CR #2 was walking and naked and pee,
poop, and urine everywhere in the middle of the night. The facility called FM. However, FM stated she never
received a called saying there was any problem getting the meds thru dialysis or that CR #2 had refused
his med. She stated when she was informed by the facility that CR #2 hadn't had his medicine from dialysis,
she went to the dialysis to speak with someone. FM stated Dialysis told her that they had already explained
to the nursing facility they could not administer that kind of medication, so they would have to get another
kind of med. During this time, FM stated CR #2 had already missed all 3 doses of his medication and at this
time he was not talking, his fever was 102, and his forehead was hot, yet the ADON stated he was ok. FM
stated the ADON told nurse to go get meds so they can start administering medications for his infection.
The ADON administered Rocephin medication, which he gave a shot in the buttocks area. FM stated ADON
asked her to hold CR #2 while he administered the shot because it would typically burn. FM stated she tried
getting him to eat doughnuts, but CR #2 would only open his mouth but could not chew. FM stated the
ADON informed her that CR #2 had a sacrum wound. FM stated CR #2 had never had a wound prior to
admittance to this facility. She stated had she known CR #2 had a wound she would not have left him in the
facility. She found out about the wound Tuesday February 24, 2025, and he was sent to the hospital on
Wednesday February 25, 2025.
During an interview on 3/11/25 at 10:50am with NP - Confirmed CR#2 was his resident when CR#2 was in
the facility. NP initially stated he didn't' know why CR#2 was given the medication to be administered at
dialysis, then stated, I think it was an antibiotic because CR#2 had recurring UTI's. NP confirmed the
medication should have been administered to CR#2 while at dialysis. He stated it was an IV medication to
be administered in the dialysis port and the dialysis people know how to administer it. If the medication was
given at facility, it will be washed out by dialysis procedure, which is why the nephrologist always want to
administer at dialysis. However, NP stated dialysis did not carry the medication, and they refused to give
the medication that accompanied CR#2 from NF. He stated at this time he was informed that CR#2 had
missed one dose. NP stated he informed the nursing facility staff to reach out to the nephrologist to see if
they could order another medication or something else that they had since CR#2 was not getting the
medication he should be getting for an infection. He stated the nephologist was the physician who originally
ordered the medication and staff needed to follow up with them. The NP stated at this time he assumed the
facility had reached out to the nephrologist as directed and they were given a different type of medication.
NP further stated he directed staff to put in a Peripheral IV only with nephrologist approval to give
medication. He stated nursing staff can't just put line on dialysis patient without nephrologist approval. NP
stated nursing staff could have either got the medication changed or administer themselves through a
midline (a thin tube inserted into a vein), but they needed to consult with nephologist first. NP stated the
facility never called him back afterwards with any results, so he assumed the medication was either
changed or given. NP stated facility staff did not report any clinical symptoms that CR#2 had an

untreated infection, no fever no chills reported, and no change in mood. He stated there was nothing
reported to him that would indicate CR#2 had an untreated infection. NP stated he received a second
telephone call from the facility indicating CR#2 had a symptom but couldn't recall what it was. He stated the
exact time he was notified by nursing staff would be in the nursing notes, because he couldn't remember.
He stated he knew he was not getting it, but don't know how many doses were missed at that time. NP
stated he thought he ordered a dose of Rocephin, which was an antibiotic that would treat CR#2 symptoms
for 24-48 hours and directed nursing staff to monitor vitals, and report to him any changes of conditions. NP
stated he would have not advised staff to send CR#2 out to the hospital unless his vitals and symptoms
worsen after given Rocephin. NP stated he was not saying to wait for a problem before doing something,
but 24-48 hours would have been a good time to see if medication from nephologist could be changed. NP
stated he reinforced instructions to facility staff to follow-up with nephrologist. He doesn't know if the
nephologist ordered anything else. NP stated hospitals expects certain levels of care from nursing facilities
then just always sending residents out without doing a full work up. He stated hospitals diagnose and do
interventions, but they expect nursing facilities to treat residents as much as they can. He stated nursing
should report any other change of condition to him. NP stated a lot of things that could happen when a
resident's medication for infection isn't administered. He stated lethargy on dialysis patient could be caused
by conditions other than sepsis.
During an Interview on 3/11/2025 at 11:54 am. with DON stated she knew on Friday, February 14, 2025,
that the facility was sending abx with CR #2 to dialysis. DON stated she was at a function with other
administrative staff and was not in the facility the week of February 17, 2025, but to her understanding she
did not give any additional order, just waiting for dialysis to obtain the meds. DON stated she did know on
Friday February 14, 2025, CR #2 did not get his medication. She stated ADON informed her on Monday
February 17th, 2025, he was sending the orders to dialysis center. DON stated she never spoke with the
nephrologist concerning CR #2 not getting his medication. She stated when a resident does not get
prescribed antibiotics there is a potential to go septic (life threatening condition that occurs when a
body-wide infection causes dangerously low blood pressure and organ damage). DON stated CR #2
situation was unique because the order was for dialysis to administer the medication and not the facility.
DON stated CR #2's physician was Medical Director for the facility and was also aware of what was going
on. She stated the nursing notes noted CR #2's change of condition. The DON stated she understood that
there was an attempt to start IV on Resident #2 in the facility, but CR #2 refused the IV. DON feels staff
were communicating and following up with Resident #2's doctor, but unsure if staff painted a clear enough
picture of everything they did as far documentation goes.
