The PASRR 1 Level screening did not indicate a diagnosis of mental illness, although the diagnosis was present upon admission. This failure could place residents who had a mental illness at risk of not receiving a needed assessment (PASRR Evaluation), individualized care, or specialized services to meet their needs. Findings included:Record review of Resident #85's face sheet, dated 01/05/2026, indicated she was an [AGE] year-old female, admitted to the facility on [DATE] with diagnoses including bipolar disorder, chronic kidney disease stage 4, and frontotemporal neurocognitive disorder.

She said she called dialysis and they said he did not need labs more than monthly at this time and he had labs done 12/5/25 and labs were due again today. Record review of a progress notes written by the PA indicated: 1/2/26.We're continuing to follow weekly labs and patient plans to discharge home. 12/5/25.Patient is a recent new admission to the facility from the hospital resting comfortably in bed and no acute distress patient's workup at the hospital revealed UTI (urinary tract infection), end-stage renal disease, .and patient will continue with hemodialysis three times weekly on Monday, Wednesdays, and Fridays.

The risk of Resident #9 not getting his labs as ordered were negative consequences to the resident, if the labs were not in normal range. She said that order should have been caught before today. She said a new nurse, RN B, should have put that lab order for Resident #9 on the 24-hour report and everyone would have been aware of the order, and she could have asked the PA about it.

The facility reported the resident left AMA and could take him back but he would have to commit to staying. The physician's evaluation on 04/17/23 at 11:57 AM indicated the resident had stayed at the hospital previously from 4/11/23 until 04/15/23 for mitral valve endocarditis (infection of the heart's inner lining affecting a heart valve), and was supposed to have received ampicillin and Rocephin through his PICC line since the diagnosis.

During an interview on 06/21/23 at 9:00 AM LVN D said the DON at the time of the reportable incident was fired on 04/17/23. She said the administrator at the time of the reportable incident left last week. She said she had just been elevated to ADON, treatment nurse, and infection preventionist. LVN D said she was working the day shift (6 AM-6 PM) on 04/15/23 in the memory care unit. She said the day shift nurse on 200 hall (new admissions) was very busy and she came out to assist her with a new admission coming later that day. She said the nurses can type in the basic medication orders when they are expecting a new admission. She said the medications and diagnoses can be typed in prior to admission but just not activated (ordered). She said she typed in the information for Resident #1. She said those referral orders are not the final orders and she said those orders did not have any IV or oral antibiotics listed. She said she told the charge nurse she would have to double check the orders when the resident arrived at the facility with the final discharge orders and the physician or NP. She said he did not arrive before she left her shift at 6 PM. She said new admission orders are entered into the computer but not activated because the resident was not yet admitted to the facility. She said they are pending until they had final orders in hand. She said she thought an agency nurse was working the 6PM-6 AM on 04/15/23. She said the hospital will send a packet of paperwork that would contain discharge information, notes from day 1 of the hospital stay, discharge medication orders and what medications had been given at time of the discharge. She said the charge nurses are to call the physician or NP at the time of entry and go over the list and the physician or NP will decide what they want to keep giving or if they want to change any of the medications. She said that was not a new practice and they had always done new admissions in that way. She said the physician also had standing lab orders they like to get at the time of admission. She said the next shift nurse usually checks or re-reads the new admission orders. She said the 400 hall charge nurse was an employee of the facility and would have been available to assist the agency nurse if she had needed any assistance. She said only regular staff and not agency staff have access to the emergency medication kit (e-kit) so any medications needed to be pulled would need to be a facility employee. She said the nurses have to call the pharmacy for orders received on the weekend after hours. She said they can still get immediately needed medications they just have to call the pharmacy instead of it being ordered through the integrated system. LVN D said to her knowledge there were no IV antibiotics in the e-kit but some oral antibiotics were available. She said she was not aware of any problems with receiving medications they needed after hours. She said if there was a problem with obtaining a medication the physician would be called and asked what he wanted them to do and how should they proceed until the medication was available. She said medication orders were reviewed during the morning meeting held every weekday morning. She said the department heads, MDS, DON, BOM, and charge nurses would review the 24-hour report. She said weekend admissions were reviewed on Monday. During an interview on 06/21/23 at 10:40 AM RN E, a corporate resource nurse, said there were no residents in the facility currently receiving IV antibiotics. She said the DON at the time of the reported incident was let go but not entirely due to the incident. She said there were other issues the DON had not been following through on. She said the DON told her she had called the pharmacy on Sunday 04/16/23 and spent hours on the phone with them. RN E said if any medications are needed over the weekend and it was after the pharmacy closed, the pharmacy had to be physically called with the order. If the medication was just ordered through the integrated system it would just stay in the pharmacy received file until they opened for their regular hours. She said IV Rocephin was available in the e-kit but the ampicillin was not. She said Resident #1 left the faciity on [DATE] at 9:52 PM and returned between 9:30-10:00 AM on 4/17/23 and was angry due to not receiving IV medications. She said the granddaughter was very vocal and the DON tried to assist her and tell her they could give the Rocephin and order the ampicillin and it would be there within 4 hours. She said the granddaughter said they were leaving and would not be back. She said when he returned on 04/17/23 at 7:45 PM he received a dose of Rocephin at 9:00 PM. RN E said neither of the IV antibiotics were administered on 04/15/23 and 04/16/23. She said the facility began inservicing employees on medications ordering, after hours ordering, and a packet was developed to give to agency and new staff explaining how to use the electronic record software as well as how to order from the pharmacy when something was needed quickly. She said a new procedure was also put in place for new admissions. She said the medical record would be reviewed within 24 hours including orders by nurse management.
