Quantity Requested: 0.5 mg. Time: 11:45 PM. Prescriber: Facility doctor. Faxed three times on 12/20/20 with the following times listed: 12:01 AM, 12:50:15 AM and 1:40:31 AM. The Pharmacy Response section on the authorization reads: Quantity: 1(one) Reads: (given at 0030). Dated 12/20/20. Time: illegible. Reads: code given to LPN #5 at 12:24 AM. According to the Physician's order summary dated 12/19/20 Resident #8 was scheduled to receive as needed Percocet 10-325 mg (Oxycodone-Acetaminophen) 2 tablets every 4 hours for pain. LPN #5 stated that the emergency lock boxes no longer have percocets inside. On 4/16/20 at 1:26 PM an interview was conducted with the Pharmacy Manager at Omnicare concerning the request for removal of scheduled medications and emergency locked box. She stated, the medication was given at 12:30 AM on 12/20/20. The dilaudid is kept in the box but not the Percocet. There was a pull from the STAT box at 12:30 Midnight. She got the code at Midnight and pulled the medication from the narcotic box. You really can't tell when she opened the box or gave it. The only paper trail is when they fax over the request and when we fax it back. So we usually call each other so no one will get hold of the four digit code. The Pharmacy system failed. There could be situations where their fax machines may not be working or our lines are down. They are required to fax all hard scripts and schedule IV (5) orders. The back-up pharmacy would have been the CVS Pharmacy. They were not opened. They (facility staff) could have called in or the doctor could have called if there were issues. The surveyor asked Pharmacist if she could explain how the ER (Emergency Box) code system works). She stated, There's an electronic pad that requires a code because the DEA (Drug Enforcement Administration) is very strict. They fax a hard script and removal form gives the facility permission to take morphine out for the resident. Giving her the code doesn't mean she went to the box right then. On 4/27/21 at 3:17 PM spoke to the Omnicare Pharmacy Account Manager concerning Pharmacy Response section on the Request for Removal of Schedule 2-5 medications from the Emergency Supply. The Pharmacy Account Manager verified under the Pharmacy Response section the authorization number was correct.

F323G · Actual harm, isolated

Based on observation, staff interviews, clinical record review and facility document review the facility staff failed to implement an assistive device to prevent an avoidable accident during a transfer that resulted in a fracture for one of 21 residents in the survey sample, Resident #12. The facility staff failed to implement a (Hoyer) mechanical lift device to transfer Resident #21 from the bed to a wheelchair per the resident's identified needs and plan of care. On 10/12/16 during a pivot transfer the resident's leg gave out and the resident sustained [REDACTED]. Hoyer lifts, or mechanical lifts, are devices used to transfer heavy or completely dependent patients. The lifts are designed to protect both patient and worker from injury during transfer. The findings included: Resident #12 was admitted to the facility on [DATE] with [DIAGNOSES REDACTED]. The current MDS (Minimum Data Set) a significant change with an assessment reference date of 10/24/16 coded the resident as scoring a 15 out of a possible 15 on the Brief Interview for Mental Status, indicating the residents cognition was intact. The resident required assistance of two staff for bed mobility and transfers and had limited range of motion to the lower extremities. The resident was coded as having a fall with a major injury. Review of the comprehensive plan of care dated 6/24/16 identified two problems related to falls as follows: 1. The resident was at risk for falls related to weakness, impaired mobility, incontinence, history of falls, non-ambulatory, flaccid left sided hemiparesis. The goal was that the resident would demonstrate the ability to transfer without a fall related injury. Two interventions listed were to remind the resident to call for assistance before moving from bed-to-chair and from chair-to-bed, and use Hoyer lift for transfer. 2. Patient (resident) has a history of refusing mechanical lift. The goal was that the patient will use the Hoyer lift for transfers. Interventions listed was for the staff to educate the patient (resident) on safety and importance of Hoyer lift for transfers and to transfer using Hoyer lift with two person assist for all transfers. An initial Facility Reported Incident (FRI) was faxed to the State Survey Agency on 10/12/16 of an unusual occurrence involving Resident #12. The FRI indicated the resident was transferred by a CNA (Certified Nurse Aide) without the use of a mechanical lift. Upon transfer from the bed to the wheelchair the CNA heard a pop from the residents left shoulder and immediately notified a nursing staff. An X-ray was obtained and showed a sub-acute left humerus fracture (long bone in the arm or forelimb that runs from the shoulder to the elbow). The FRI summary report of the facility's internal investigation and conclusion was reviewed. The resident had requested to sit on her wheelchair. The resident told the CNA, help me stand on my good leg so I can Pivot to the chair because I hate the lift. The CNA performed the transfer manually instead of the mechanical lift, that resulted in a fracture. On 1/18/16 at 10:40 a.m., the CNA (certified nurse aide #2) was interviewed. The CNA stated the resident had requested to be transferred from the bed to the wheelchair. The resident had refused the lift stating, She doesn't like to use the machine at all .she has a fear of the lift . The CNA stated she had taken care of the resident previously and was aware that if the resident refused to use the mechanical lift she was to report this to the charge nurse first. The charge nurse would then come to the room and educate the resident about the need to use the mechanical lift, at times the residents daughter would also be called to speak with the resident. The CNA stated during the pivot transfer she had placed her arms around the resident like a bear hug, the resident lost balance, the residents left arm went up, and then she heard a pop. The CNA stated she immediately left the room to get a nurse after placing the resident in the wheelchair. The CNA was questioned if she had access to a gait belt to be used during resident transferred, she stated, Yes, they are kept in the staff lounge. The CNA was asked if she used the gait belt for the transfer of Resident #12, she stated, No. The CNA stated, I had pivoted her before without using a gait belt. A gait belt is a device used to transfer people from one position to another, from one thing to another or while ambulating people that have problems with balance. For example, you would use a gait belt to move a patient from a standing position to a wheelchair. On 1/18/17 at 2:27 p.m., the staff development coordinator (SDC) was interviewed. The SDC stated, I was coming down the hallway and saw the CNA, she looked as if she was in need of someone .she looked upset and distressed. She asked me if I could come and take a look at the resident .I immediately looked at the resident's shoulder .the resident stated she was okay. The SDC left to get the unit manager. On 1/18/17 at 2:40 p.m., the Bayside unit manager was interviewed. The unit manager stated, I was called to the room by (name of SDC), we both went to the resident's room and assessed the resident .her shoulder looked swollen . The unit manager stated, the CNA took matters into her own hands .the resident wanted to be transferred .the CNA shouldn't have transferred the resident .during the pivot her legs got weak .it was done incorrectly .she did cause harm. The resident refused to go to the emergency room for evaluation. An x-ray was done at the facility and evidenced a fracture to the proximal humerus. The resident was prescribed Percocet 325 milligrams 2 tablets every 4 hours as needed for pain, a left arm sling was placed on the resident and an orthopedic appointment was made, On 1/17/16 at 2:30 p.m., the resident was observed sitting up in the wheelchair at the bedside. A sensor alarm was attached to the back of the wheelchair to alert staff if the resident attempted to get up unassisted. The resident stated she has lower leg pain on and off, and denied any other pain at this time. The resident stated she gets up out of bed with a lift. During the survey days residents were observed to be transferred according to their plan of care. In response to the inappropriate transfer the facility developed a corrective action plan as follows: 1. The resident refused to go to the emergency room . X-rays were obtained. An orthopedic appointment was scheduled. The interdisciplinary team reviewed the resident's plan of care with revisions developed and implemented to address the resident's individualized needs to include pain management regiment and therapy evaluation for transfer needs. 2. Identification of all residents requiring a mechanical lift who have the potential to be affected. 3. The SDC/Designee will provide education to the nursing staff and new nursing staff regarding standards of practice for performing resident transfers. Education will include validation of skills competency for the nursing staff regarding the operation of the mechanical lift by October 25, 2016. The nursing staff will perform resident transfers in accordance with the resident's plan of care and the established standards. 4. The DON (Director of Nursing)/ Designee will review 100% of the medical records of resident's that require the utilization of a mechanical lift for transfer assistance to validate implementation of appropriate measures per the residents' plan of care. The Clinical Managers will conduct staff observations of 10% of resident to validate adherence to the plan of care during transfers for four weeks then monthly for three months. Findings will be reported to the QAPI (Quality Assurance Performance Improvement) Committee for further review and recommendations. 5. Date of completion October 25, 2016.
