The facility failed to identify and incorporate care plan interventions related to changes in condition and emergency response, including the use of Naloxone (Narcan), despite known risk factors.This failure resulted in staff responding to ongoing fall risk, behavioral escalation, and changes in condition without clear, individualized guidance.This failure could place residents at risk for unmet medical and nursing needs, delayed response to changes in condition, and inconsistent care. Record review of CR #1's face sheet dated 01/23/26 identified a [AGE] year-old male with diagnoses including metabolic encephalopathy, bipolar disorder with psychotic features, impaired mobility, muscle weakness, and a history of repeated falls.Record review of the quarterly MDS dated [DATE] revealed a BIMS score of 6, indicating moderate cognitive impairment and impaired safety awareness. The resident required extensive assistance with ADLs and transfers.Record review of facility fall tracking documentation dated 1/22/26 reflected CR #1 experienced repeated falls over multiple months, including multiple falls on the same day (09/02/25), demonstrating an ongoing pattern of unsafe transfer attempts, impulsive behavior, and poor safety awareness.Review of the CR #1's care plan (revised 8/27/25 and 9/8/25) identified the resident as high risk for falls related to confusion, impaired balance, incontinence, unaware of safety needs, use of narcotic pain meds, will attempt to transfer from bed to chair without assistance. Poor balance, psychotropic drug use, unsteady gait. The resident has had an actual fall. Interventions included encourage the resident to participate in activities, follow facility fall precautions and refer to therapy as ordered, the resident needs safe environment with even floors free from spills and/or clutter, adequate, glare free light, a working and reachable call light, the bed in lowest position at night, handrails on walls, personal items within reach, appropriate footwear when ambulating or mobilizing in w/c, and the appropriate adaptive equipment is available and in use.

combative episodes.Record review of CR #1's MAR for September 2025 revealed an active physician order for Naloxone (Narcan) nasal spray to be administered as needed for suspected opioid overdose, as well as an order to monitor the resident each shift for signs and symptoms of overdose. The resident's care plan did not identify suspected overdose or changes in condition requiring emergency response as a care-planned need, nor did it include interventions to guide staff on when or how to respond to suspected overdose.Interview on 01/21/26 with CNA A revealed CR #1 frequently became agitated during care, attempted to strike staff, and threw himself during transfers. CNA A stated staff were aware the resident's behaviors escalated over time but did not identify a care-planned approach for managing these behaviors during hands-on care.Interview on 01/21/26 with LVN A confirmed the resident exhibited impulsive and combative behaviors and that staff often had to respond in the moment without structured guidance in the care plan.Interview on 01/21/26 with the DON confirmed CR #1 experienced multiple falls over time and acknowledged that no new interventions were added to the care plan despite the recurrence of falls and behavioral concerns.No careplan policy provided upon exit on 2/28/26.

This failure could affect residents who were a fall risk which could result in injury and contribute to avoidable accidents.Findings include: Record review of CR#1's face sheet dated 1/23/26 identified a [AGE] year-old male admitted on [DATE] (initial admission 6/10/24) with diagnoses including metabolic encephalopathy, lack of coordination, bipolar disorder with psychotic features, muscle weakness, muscle wasting and atrophy, wedge compression fracture of the first lumbar vertebra, and history of falls. Review of CR #1's quarterly MDS dated [DATE] revealed a BIMS score of 6, indicating moderate cognitive impairment, and documented a history of falls since the prior assessment. The resident required partial to moderate assistance with sit-to-stand and bed-to-chair transfers. Review of the CR #1's care plan (revised 8/27/25 and 9/8/25) identified the resident as high risk for falls related to confusion, impaired balance, incontinence, unaware of safety needs, use of narcotic pain meds, will attempt to transfer from bed to chair without assistance.

confirmed the resident's fall history at the time of transport to the emergency department for evaluation. Record review of the hospital records dated 09/07/2025 showed the resident was transported via EMS from the nursing facility to the local Hospital for evaluation of altered mental status. EMS documented a history of multiple falls and noted bruising in various stages of healing, including to the left cheek. The resident was documented as stable and discharged back to the facility the same day. Record review revealed this was the only fall CR #1 had an injury resulting a transfer to the hospital. Interview with CR #1's family member on 01/20/26 at 11:43 a.m. was questioned regarding CR #1's falls. Family member referred to the complaint investigation that she had submitted. An interview on 01/21/26 at 12:10 p.m. with the Admin said the facility was doing everything they could to prevent CR #1's falls. She said CR #1 was very impulsive and would not use his call light. She said CR #1 did not want to wait for staff to transfer him back to bed after he smoked. She said it was crazy, he would throw himself when he transferred. An interview on 1/21/26 at 11:30 a.m. with CNA A said she had been working at the facility for about a year. She said she was often assigned to the hall where CR #1 resided. She said CR #1 threw himself during transfers from bed to chair or chair to bed. She said the resident always had bruises from his falls and behaviors. CNA A said his whole face was one big bruise. She said as precautionary the Admin would pull a CNA to sit one-on-one with CR #1 when his behaviors were really bad to prevent falls. CNA A said they knew he would throw himself out of bed during those times. She said CR #1 had fall interventions such as lowering his bed, call light in place, and fall mat beside his bed. She said she had not been trained on the facility policy related to residents with behaviors, however, she was a certified EMT and had been trained as part of her certification. An interview on 1/21/26 at 1:45 p.m. with LVN A said when she first met CR#1 he could transfer himself to his chair, and transfer himself back to bed. She said then he got to where he needed the assistance of one person at times because he was weak in his lower extremities and his dementia was pretty bad. She said after the family installed cameras in CR#1's room his behavior worsened. He said she got along with CR #1 and he had no behavioral concerns with her. LVN A said she had not had behavioral training at the facility, but as a nurse she had behavioral training over time. She said if a resident was aggressive she would try to talk to them and ensure everyone's safety. She said sometimes the resident needs space. She explained the family member would talk to CR#1 through the camera to remind him it was smoke break time and he would try to get up and smoke. LVN A said once the cameras were installed CR #1 had a change in behaviors; he would yell all day long. She said the resident knew his legs were too weak to transfer himself but he would continue to throw himself in the wheelchair. LVN A said she tried to re-educate the resident to not transfer and use the call light, but he would do it anyway. She said often times when she found CR #1 on the floor he was in a kneeling position over his bed or a prone position on the floor. LVN A said the resident was impulsive and insistent to get up to go smoke. An interview on 1/21/26 at 1:37 p.m. with the Admin, DON, and ADON regarding CR#1, the DON said CR#1's family was not real involved with his care when he was first admitted and he did well. The DON said the family member installed cameras in the resident room and she would wake him up because it was smoke time and this would cause him to fall out of bed. The Admin explained the resident would transfer himself by throwing himself to his bed or wheelchair. The Admin said most of his falls were from the wheelchair to the bed. The Admin said the resident was impulsive and impatient and would not wait on anyone to assist him into bed. The Admin said the resident began to fall end of May or early June 2025. The Admin said the family member installed the cameras in the resident room end of June because of his falls and then the falls worsened. The Admin explained CR#1 started to yell out more and had more falls, his behaviors got really bad.

Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on interview and record review, the facility failed to ensure that pharmaceutical services (including procedures that assure the accurate acquiring, receiving, dispensing, and administering of all drugs and biologicals) were provided to meet the needs of each resident for 1 of 11 residents reviewed for pharmacy services (CR#1). The facility failed to administer Naloxone (Narcan), as ordered for suspected opioid overdose, to CR #1 on 09/09/2025. Despite staff suspicion of possible drug use and the resident presenting with unresponsiveness, facility nursing staff did not provide the emergency medication before EMS arrival. This failure could place residents at risk for delayed emergency intervention, exacerbation of life-threatening conditions, and increased potential for physical harm.Findings include: Record review of CR#1's face sheet dated 1/23/26 identified a [AGE] year-old male admitted on [DATE] (initial admission 6/10/24) with diagnoses including metabolic encephalopathy, lack of coordination, bipolar disorder with psychotic features, muscle weakness, muscle wasting and atrophy, wedge compression fracture of the first lumbar vertebra, and history of falls. Record review of CR #1's quarterly MDS dated [DATE] revealed a BIMS score of 6, indicating moderate cognitive impairment, and documented a history of falls since the prior assessment. The resident required partial to moderate assistance with sit-to-stand and bed-to-chair transfers. Record review of CR#1's care plan dated 1/23/26 revealed no use of Narcan or interventions identified for when to administer. Record review of the EMS Prehospital Care Report dated 09/09/2025 showed EMS was called by the facility at 2:48 pm. Upon EMS arrival at 3:35 pm an unknown facility staff informed Paramedic that Narcan had not been administered. EMS proceeded to give two doses of Narcan, after which the resident became alert. Documentation from EMS noted the unknown nurse stated they have not given the patient any narcotic medications and suspect that the patients family might be giving him drugs while they visits and state patient has a past history ofdrug abuse. Record review of the Prehospital Care Report dated 09/09/2025 revealed that Emergency Medical Services (EMS) were dispatched to the facility for Resident #1, who was found unresponsive but breathing. EMS documentation by the Paramedic states that upon arrival, the resident was unresponsive. EMS administered two doses of intranasal Naloxone (Narcan) at 3:46p.m. and 3:49 pm.The report notes, Patient became alert after second dose and screamed at me. Patient is now C/A/O x2. V/S stable. Record review of CR#1's MAR for September 2025 showed a standing medication for Naloxone (Narcan) nasal spray 1 spray every 2 minutes as needed for suspected opioid overdose. There was no documentation of administration by facility staff for this or any prior similar event. Record review of CR #1's September 2025 MAR revealed an order to monitor the resident for the following signs/ symptoms/ behaviors that might be indicative of abuse and/ or overdose each shift. Indicate Y for yes they are present and promptly notify the physician/ pharmacist if any occur. Indicate N if none are present. Every shift for Opioid use poor motor skills/ coordination, digestive issues, pupil constriction, slowed thinking/ impaired judgement/ problem-solving, unprovoked outbursts, requesting increased dosage, drowsiness, unresponsive/ unable to speak, slow breathing, and erratic pulse. Nursing notated a N or 0 for September 1st through September 14th 2025. An interview on 1/21/26 at 11:30 a.m. with CNA A said she had suspicions the family was bringing in street drugs. She said after the family would leave then CR #1 would have a change in condition. She said he would become unresponsive after family visits. She said one time she saw the EMS give the resident Narcan and he immediately came out of his lethargy. She stated the resident had a history of substance abuse before his admission to the facility. No timeframes were given in that interview. Family was unable to be interviewed about this statement.

toxicity, based on the resident's history and current symptoms such as congestive heart failure, hypertensive disorder, Bipolar disorder, chronic pain, chronic kidney disease, major depressive disorder, and acute respiratory failure. With symptoms of being unresponsive and lethargic. LVN B stated, We thought he might have taken something again, but we waited for EMS because we weren't sure if it was safe to give Narcan. Interview on 01/23/2026 at 11:30 AM with the DON confirmed Narcan was available in the facility at the time of the incident and nursing staff were trained on Narcan administration. The DON stated, Our policy says to administer Narcan if you suspect overdose. In this case, the nurse did not administer it before EMS arrival. The DON said she received the new policy via email from the corporate nurse and it was her responsibility to ensure the nurses were trained. Record review of facility policy, Prevention and Treatment of Substance Abuse Disorders (revised December 2022), states: If opioid overdose is suspected and naloxone administration is indicated, 911 should be called immediately and naloxone administered. All nurses will be provided with instructions regarding the administration of naloxone nasal spray. Two doses of naloxone nasal spray are provided in the Omnicell at all times.
