The following incidents were discussed with Memory Care Director (MCD), Megan Leone, and also with Administrator, Kathleen Gilbey, with additional information obtained, as follows:

MCD stated that R1 believed that her walker was no longer hers and wouldn't use it regularly with ambulating, which caused her to fall in the dining room.
Resident (R2) was administered a second dose of the evening dose of Nitrofurantoin to treat a urinary tract infection on 12/21/2021. Resident's physician was notified via fax by the facility and resident is doing well.
Resident (R3) displayed combative behaviors with other residents in Memory Care on/around November 2021 and on several other occasions in the months prior. MCD stated that R3 was unable to communicate her needs and was placed on hospice in early December 2021. Resident was receiving medication for pain and her physician was advised of resident's behaviors. Resident passed on 12/26/2021 and was provided with a copy of the death report (LIC624A) that was faxed to the Department on 12/27.2021.
