  • Develop and Implement Policies and Procedures to Ensure Employees Report Any Suspicion of a Crime against Any Resident and Prevent Retaliation for Reporting – citation #F608 date May 25, 2018
  • According to state investigators, “the facility failed to implement the abuse policy when [a resident’s] allegation of misappropriation medication was not reported to the police department within 24 hours.” This failure affected one resident “reviewed for abuse.”

    The investigators reviewed a Self-Reported Incident (SRI) submitted to the State Agency on January 9, 2018.” The report “indicated there was an accusation against [and Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN)] for narcotic discrepancy involving [one resident’s opioid pain medication], which occurred on December 13, 2017.”

    On that date, the Director of Nursing “went to give [the resident] their ‘as needed’ medication” when the resident “mentioned it had been a couple of weeks and she took the medication.” During the investigation, a Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) pulled up the Medication Administration Record and “there was no evidence of a police report in the SRI file.”

    An LPN wrote an undated witness statement indicating that on that day the resident asked for two pain medication tablets. When the resident received the drug from the LPN, “she questioned the color as they were white instead of blue.” The LPN reminded the resident “that she had taken [the pills] twice the day before and did not remember what they looked like.”

    The resident stated that she had not asked for the pain medication “for a couple of weeks and said, “someone else probably took them.” The LPN “reassured her that she would try to find out what happened and the Director of Nursing was notified.”

    The investigators interviewed the facility Administrator who revealed that “the allegation of misappropriation of [that resident’s] narcotic medication was reported to the police department on December 27, 2017.” The Administrator also “verified the allegation of misappropriation of [that resident’s] narcotic medication was not reported to the police department within twemty-four hours” as required by law.

★★★★★
Jonathan did a great job helping my family navigate through a lengthy lawsuit involving my grandmother's death in a nursing home. Through every step of the case, Jonathan kept my family informed of the progression of the case. Although our case eventually settled at a mediation, I really was impressed at how well prepared Jonathan was to take the case to trial. Lisa

After I read Jonathan’s Nursing Home Blog, I decided to hire him to look into my wife’s treatment at a local nursing home. Jonathan did a great job explaining the process and the laws that apply to nursing homes. I immediately felt at ease and was glad to have him on my side. Though the lawsuit process was at times frustrating, Jonathan reassured me, particularly at my deposition. I really felt like Jonathan cared about my wife’s best interests, and I think that came across to the lawyers for the nursing home. Eric
