Citation history
Health deficiencies cited at Friendship Manor Nursing & Rehab Center during CMS and state inspections, most recent first.
A resident with a kidney transplant and immunodeficiency received an incorrect dose of tacrolimus due to a transcription error in the EHR, which was not identified by the pharmacy consultant during an Interim MRR. Additionally, the facility failed to act on recommendations for lab tests to monitor the resident's tacrolimus levels, missing opportunities to detect the dosage error.
A resident with a kidney transplant and immunodeficiency was given an incorrect dose of tacrolimus due to a charting error, receiving 25mg daily instead of the prescribed 2.5mg. This error occurred for 29 out of 37 days, as identified through record reviews and staff interviews.
A CNA with an expired license continued to provide direct care to residents, despite a position change to Direct Care Partner (DCP), which does not involve patient care. The lapse occurred due to the DSD's unawareness of the cancellation of a COVID waiver allowing CNAs to work without a license. The DON and ADM acknowledged the risk of harm to residents from unlicensed staff providing care.
The facility failed to ensure a licensed nurse completed mandatory annual abuse training after returning from leave, as required by Federal regulations. The nurse had last attended training in December 2022, but upon returning to work in February 2024, there was no documentation of updated training. This deficiency was identified during an unannounced visit following an abuse complaint, highlighting a risk to resident safety due to potential unpreparedness of staff to handle abuse situations.
Failure to Identify Medication Irregularities and Conduct Lab Monitoring
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to ensure that a licensed pharmacist identified irregularities during a medication regimen review for a resident who was admitted with a kidney transplant and immunodeficiency. The resident's tacrolimus dosage was incorrectly entered into the Electronic Health Record (EHR) as 5 mg instead of the prescribed 0.5 mg. This error was not identified by the pharmacy consultant during the Interim Medication Regimen Review (MRR), as the After Visit Summary was not available in the resident's chart at the time of review. Consequently, the resident received an excessive dose of tacrolimus throughout their stay at the facility. Additionally, the facility did not act upon the pharmacy consultant's recommendation to obtain laboratory tests to monitor the resident's tacrolimus levels. Despite recommendations made on two separate occasions, the necessary lab work was not conducted, which could have identified the irregularity in the medication dosage. The Director of Nursing expressed an expectation for the pharmacy to identify such irregularities and emphasized the importance of completing pharmacy recommendations to prevent harm to residents.
Significant Medication Error Due to Incorrect Dosage Entry
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to ensure that a resident was free from significant medication errors when the prescribed dose of tacrolimus was not administered according to the physician's orders. The resident, who had a history of kidney transplant and immunodeficiency due to drugs, was admitted with instructions to take tacrolimus 0.5mg capsules, totaling 2.5mg per day. However, the medication was incorrectly entered into the resident's chart as 5mg, resulting in the administration of 25mg per day for 29 out of 37 days during the resident's stay. This error was identified during a record review and confirmed through interviews with the Director of Staff Development and the Medical Director. The Medical Director emphasized the importance of administering the correct dose to prevent potential adverse effects, such as infection. The facility's policy on administering medications, which mandates safe and timely administration as prescribed, was not followed, leading to this significant medication error.
Unlicensed CNA Providing Direct Care
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to ensure that one of its nursing staff, a Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA), had the required continuing education and state certifications necessary for working with the resident population. This deficiency was identified during an unannounced visit following a Facility Reported Incident. The CNA in question had an expired license but continued to work full-time, providing care to residents. The lapse in checking licenses was attributed to the Director of Staff Development (DSD), who was unaware of the cancellation of the COVID blanket waiver that previously allowed CNAs to work without a license due to delays in issuing licenses. The CNA's personnel file indicated that their license had expired, and despite a position change from CNA to Direct Care Partner (DCP), they continued to perform CNA duties, which involved direct patient care. The Director of Nursing (DON) clarified that a DCP's role does not include patient care tasks, yet the CNA was utilized as a CNA until the deficiency was discovered. Interviews with the DON and Administrator confirmed that having unlicensed staff providing direct care could potentially harm residents due to insufficient training for the required care tasks.
Failure to Ensure Mandatory Abuse Training for Staff
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to ensure that a licensed nurse, LN 1, completed the annual Federal mandatory abuse training, which is a requirement for all staff. LN 1 was hired in May 2018 and had last attended an in-person abuse training session in December 2022. However, after returning from a leave of absence from June 2023 to February 2024, there was no documentation to show that LN 1 had completed the required abuse training upon returning to work. This oversight was confirmed by the Director of Staff Development (DSD), who acknowledged that LN 1 should have been provided with the training immediately upon return. The deficiency was identified during an unannounced visit to the facility in response to a complaint alleging abuse. Interviews with staff, including a certified nursing assistant and the Director of Nursing (DON), confirmed that abuse training is mandatory and should be conducted at least annually. The facility's policy mandates that all employees attend resident rights and abuse prevention training before having any resident contact. The lack of training for LN 1 put all residents at risk for potential abuse, as staff may not be adequately prepared to recognize and handle situations involving abuse, neglect, or isolation.
