F 0656 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Few Develop and implement a complete care plan that meets all the resident's needs, with timetables and actions that can be measured. **NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on observation, interviews and record reviews the facility failed to develop and implement a comprehensive person-centered care plan for each resident, that includes measurable objectives and timeframes to meet a resident's medical, nursing, and mental and psychosocial needs that are identified in the comprehensive assessment for 2 of 2 residents (Residents #23 and Resident #24) reviewed for care plans. 1.The facility failed to ensure Resident #23 had her fall mat in place while in bed. 2. The facility failed to ensure Resident #24's care plan included the use of the antidepressant medication. These failures could have placed residents at risk for not having their needs met. Findings included: 1.Record review of Resident #23's face sheet dated 06/10/25 indicated she was an [AGE] year-old female who admitted to the facility on [DATE] with the diagnoses dementia, chronic kidney disease, anxiety, and high blood pressure. Record review of Resident #23's quarterly MDS dated [DATE] indicated she understood others and was able to make herself understood. The MDS also indicated she had a BIMS score of 10 which meant she had moderate cognitive impairment. The MDS also indicated she required limited assistance with transfers, extensive assistance with dressing, toileting, and showering, and setup for eating. The MDS also indicated Resident #23 had had a fall with no injury. Record review of Resident #23's care plan dated 02/10/25 indicated she had an actual fall on 02/07/25 attempting to transfer herself with interventions in place to have a floor mat in use when she was in bed. During an observation on 06/09/25 at 10:25 AM Resident #23 was laying in her bed and the fall mat was folded by the chair at the end of the bed. During an observation on 06/10/25 at 08:26 AM Resident #23 was in bed and had her fall mat folded beside the chair. During an interview on 06/11/25 at 01:04 PM CNA said she did not usually work on that side of the facility where Resident #23 resided but she had placed the fall mat down for Resident #23 before. She said Resident #23 had been known to move the mat when she transferred herself but was unsure of why the fall mat had not been in use. During an interview on 06/11/25 at 01:14 PM the DON said she expected the fall mat to be on the floor beside Resident #23's bed while she was in bed. The DON said Resident #23 had moved the floor mat in the past and she got upset at the staff when they placed the floor mat and made them remove the fall mat. The DON said not having the fall mat in place placed a risk for Resident #23 to have an injury if she had a fall from the bed.

The DON said the DON, ADON, and the MDS nurse were all responsible for ensuring the resident care plans were completed with all diagnoses and medications pertinent to each resident. The DON said the failure of the antidepressant not being on his care plan placed a risk for staff not knowing Resident #24 had depression, the medication he was taking, or if he had any triggers. During an interview on 06/11/25 at 02:13 PM The Administrator said he would expect the antidepressant to be in Resident #24's care plan. He said all nursing staff were responsible for ensuring the care plans were completed and accurate. The Administrator said the failure placed a risk for the staff not knowing Resident #24 had depression and how to care for him. Record review of the facility policy Care Plans, Comprehensive Person-Centered revised December 2016 indicated: Policy Statement: A comprehensive, person-centered care plan that includes measurable objectives and timetables to meet the resident's physical, psychosocial and functional needs is developed and implemented for each resident.

RN B said she did not work the following days, and Resident #188's urine should have been set out on Monday, 06/02/2025. RN B said when she returned to work on Wednesday, 06/04/2025, she was under the impression his urine had been collected because she was not told it needed to be collected and sent out. RN B said if a lab is not collected it should be placed on the 24-hour report until it was collected. RN B said it was important to collect labs so they could have a baseline and know how to treat the residents. During an interview on 06/11/2025 at 1:37 PM, the DON said Resident #2 and Resident #29's labs were collected in January 2025. The DON said the labs were not drawn as ordered because she thought they had been discontinued.

During an interview on 06/11/2025 at 2:26 PM, the ADON said in the mornings the DON and herself conducted lab follow up with the charge nurses to ensure the labs were monitored. The ADON said Resident #2 and Resident #29's orders were old labs that were not taken out when they changed medical directors in March 2024. The ADON said this was why Resident #2 and Resident #29's labs were not completed. The ADON said Resident #188 admitted late Friday and the lab did not go to the facility on the weekends. The ADON said she was noticed by the charge nurse that she attempted to collect Resident #188's urine on Monday, and he refused. The ADON said nothing else was reported to her, and she did not know why it was not collected after that. The ADON said it was important for labs to be collected as ordered to monitor the residents for infections, medication monitoring, and to monitor disease processes.

The report did not reveal any new orders regarding Resident #25's Keppra. Residents Affected - Some Record review of the facility's 24-hour report dated 04/01/25, indicated Resident #25 had a new order to change her vitamin D to 2000 units daily and increase the levothyroxine (medication used to treat thyroid hormone deficiency) to 75mcg every morning. The report did not reveal any new orders regarding Resident #25's Keppra. Record review of Resident #25's progress notes dated 03/10/25- 06/11/25 did not reveal Resident #25's Keppra lab result was addressed. The progress notes did not indicate Resident #25 had any seizures. Record review of Resident #25's nursing MAR for the month of April 2025, indicated she received Keppra 100mg/ml 10 mls via her peg tube (tube inserted in the stomach for medications and nutrition) two times a day. The MAR did not indicate any Keppra doses had been held or refused. During an interview on 06/10/25 at 1:40 PM, the DON said no one ever responded to Resident #25's doctor when he asked what her current Keppra dosage was. She said LVN D worked on 03/31/25 and was responsible for following up on the labs. She said there was nothing charted in Resident #25's progress notes to indicate the lab was addressed. She said if it was not charted it was not done. The DON said since Resident #25's lab was not addressed she could have had a seizure. The DON said Resident #25 had not had any seizures. She said all nurses were responsible for following up on the lab results. She said nurse management discussed labs in the morning clinical meeting. The DON said somehow the ball was dropped on Resident #25's Keppra level. She said she was unsure of how Resident #25's lab was missed. The DON said Resident #25's Keppra lab was not written on the 24-hour report for follow up. During an interview on 06/10/25 at 5:32 PM, LVN D said she was unable to recall if she worked on 03/31/25. LVN D said if there was a lab she needed to follow up it would have been written on the 24-hour report. She said if it was not written on the 24 hour report she would not know if there was anything that needed to be addressed. She said if it had been discussed in clinical then it would have been addressed and charted. She said the nurse email was checked every shift for lab results and faxes. She said by not responding to the doctor regarding her Keppra order placed Resident #25 at risk for having an adverse reaction to an elevated Keppra level. She said Resident #25 could have had a seizure. She said any labs awaiting a response from the doctor were attached to the 24-hour report. During an interview on 06/11/24 at 12:45 PM, the Administrator said he expected the nurse to follow up with labs immediately once they were received.
