- Failure to Immediately Notify the Resident, the Resident’s Doctor or Family Members of a Change in the Resident’s Condition Including a Decline in Their Health or Injury – citation date March 27, 2017
The state surveyors initiated an Immediate Jeopardy situation related to the facility’s failure to notify the physician concerning “changes in condition, or clinical complications, and when the resident was not receiving medications or treatments as ordered.” The nursing home never notified the Physician when the resident developed a serious medical condition, the resident’s “oxygen saturation’s were low while receiving oxygen, diabetic medications were not administered as ordered, daily weights were not obtained as ordered, and breathing treatments were not administered as ordered.”
As a result of poor care, the resident was admitted to the hospital. “A chest x-ray obtained to the hospital on the same day documented an impression of cardiomegaly with mild vascular congestion and small bilateral effusions with the left effusion.”
The Oklahoma State Department of Health “verified an Immediate Jeopardy situation existed related to the facility’s failure to provide notification of changes in resident conditions or clinical complications to Physicians.” As a result of the failure, “all licensed Registered Nurses (RNs) and Licensed Practical Nurses (LPNs) have been placed on suspension until in-service on properly assessing, monitoring, and intervening when a change in resident status has been identified.”
Also, “all licensed RNs and LPNs have/will be in-service on notification of change to Physician. All current residents’ medications have been checked to ensure all prescribed medications are available for administration per Physician’s orders.” Additionally, “all RNs and LPNs have/will be in-serviced on ensuring breathing treatment are given per Physician’s orders [and] all CMAs and CNAs have/will be in-service on notifying Charge Nurse when they identify a resident has a change in condition.”
The facility had been informed that an Immediate Jeopardy was removed when all components of the plan of removal had been implemented. The deficiency remained at actual harm level at a pattern.”
