- Failure to Immediately Notify the Resident’s Doctor or Family Member of a Change in the Resident’s Condition – citation #F157 date June 29, 2017
The state investigators determined that “the facility failed to ensure a safe discharge for [one resident].” This deficiency was evidenced by the failure to “follow up with [the resident] when she did not return back to the facility from an appointment.”
The state investigators reviewed the resident’s electronic clinical record that revealed the resident was found to “have a lowered hemoglobin value of 7.4 (where normal is 12 – 16). The Physician was notified, and the resident was sent to the hospital for evaluation.”
A review of the resident’s Nursing Progress Notes from that day indicate that a family member (brother) was aware that the resident had been transferred to the hospital. Four days later, the resident “was readmitted to the facility for continued skilled nursing and therapy services.” At that point, the resident’s hemoglobin was 10.7.
On June 19, 2017, the resident’s blood work revealed a low potassium level and lowered hemoglobin of 8.8. The Physician provided new order to recheck the resident’s blood work in a week “and administer a dose of oral potassium now.”
By the following day (June 20, 2017, at 1:43 PM) the resident indicated that “she wishes to be discharged home.” A call was placed to the resident’s doctor, and the doctor “will be here this afternoon. The patient was notified.” The patient stated that “she will wait for him to see her.”
One hour later, the Social Services Progress Note indicates that the resident “is very ambivalent and reluctant to accept” home health. The resident states that she has durable medical equipment at home, including a four-wheel walker with a seat, walker, and a 3-1 commode.
However, a review of the electronic Nursing Progress Notes at 10:52 PM that day indicate that the resident had gone to the doctor’s appointment and wanted to be discharged later that day. The resident had “not returned to the facility since leaving her doctor appointment.”
The nursing staff called the resident’s home number, but “no one answered. A second call was made to a number listed for her brother, but the number was a wrong number.” There was no other way of reaching the resident. The doctor was notified through an answering service, and the nursing staff was awaiting the return call.
