Allegation #2: Staff did not report resident’s change in condition to appropriate parties
LPA reviewed medication orders for R1, 24-hour staff communication log, and blood sugar readings for R1 as stated above. LPA also interviewed S1. Based on record reviews and interviews, it was determined that R1’s physician was to be notified if blood sugar reading above 400. During record review, it was further determined that blood sugar for R1 read at over 400 on multiple dates during June and July of 2022. A review of 24-hour communication log and R1s general record revealed no entries were made to indicate physician was notified of the blood sugar reading. An interview with S1 determined no confirmation of physician notified. Based on interviews and record reviews, the preponderance of evidence standard is met, and this allegation is SUBSTANTIATED.
