for further - physician evaluation.
Record review of the hospital records, dated 7/20/24, indicated Resident #1's admitting diagnoses were
sepsis (a life-threatening complication of an infection, pneumonia, leukocytosis (elevated white blood cells),
altered mental status, COVID-19, influenza, and dehydration. The hospital records indicated Resident #1's
assessment revealed sepsis, pneumonia, COVID-19, influenza B, and oliguric renal failure (also known as
acute kidney failure, when a person's urine output is very low).
Record review of the record of death, dated 7/22/24, indicated Resident #1's cause of death was COVID-19
with pulmonary comorbidity.
During an interview on 7/30/24 at 9:30 a.m., the NP said he was out of the country from 7/14/24 through
7/19/24 and was not on call. The NP said the physician was on call during the time he was out of the
country. The NP said when he returned, he was informed Resident #1 was in the hospital.
During an interview on 7/30/24 at 9:33 a.m. the Physician said he was somewhat familiar with Resident #1.
The Physician said he was not notified on 7/1/5/24 regarding Resident #1's change of condition including
head leaning heavily to the left, heavy incontinence, confusion, weakness, and need for 2-person assist.
The Physician said he would not have expected to have been notified for one of the changes of condition,
but with the cumulative changes in condition he would have expected to have been notified. The Physician
said he was not notified of Resident #1's respiratory distress on 7/20/24 at 10:47 am. The Physician said he
would have expected a notification from the facility of a resident having respiratory distress. The Physician
said the importance of him being notified regarding a resident's change in condition was so the resident
could be assessed and a plan of care decided on. The Physician said Resident #1's cause of death was
respiratory failure due to COVID pneumonia.
During an interview on 7/30/24 at 10:01 a.m., CNA B said she had worked at the facility for approximately 2
years and had worked the 6:00 a.m.to 2:00 p.m. shift in the secured unit for approximately 4 months. CNA B
said she was familiar with Resident #1. CNA B said Resident #1 was normally ambulatory and able to feed
herself. CNA B said Resident #1 needed encouragement with eating and would require assistance as
needed when she was tired. CNA B said the week of 7/15/24-7/20/24 she was off a few days. CNA B said
Resident #1 was out of it during the days she worked the week on 7/15/24. CNA B said Resident #1 was
more confused and less active during the week of 7/15/24. CNA B said Resident #1's change was reported
to RN A.
During an interview on 7/30/24 at 11:26 a.m., RN A said she was no longer employed at the facility. RN A
said her last day to work was 7/23/24. RN A said she was familiar with Resident #1. RN A said when
Resident #1 had a change in condition on 7/15/24 they observed her and provided assistance as needed.
RN A said she was not sure if the physician was contacted regarding Resident #1's change of condition on
7/15/24. RN A said normally the NP was sent a text regarding changes in condition and lab results, but he
was out of town during the week of 7/15/24. RN A said when Resident #1's respirations were 30 and her
oxygen saturation was 88% she monitored her closely and faxed the physician.
During an interview on 7/30/24 at 2:37 p.m., the DON said if a resident had a decrease in oxygen
saturation, shortness of breath, or respiratory distress she expected the nurses to use nursing judgement
as to whether the resident needed to be sent to the emergency room immediately or to if notification to the
physician would be sufficient.
