In addition, a dietary progress note, dated 5/2/18 indicated .Current [MEDICAL TREATMENT] labs are unavailable to me here at this time. The [MEDICAL TREATMENT] labs were recommended to be obtained by our facility at today's morning/clinical meeting. In an interview on 5/2/18 at 1:34 PM, Licensed Nurse #82 was asked how the [MEDICAL TREATMENT] center and the facility communicate. She explained she did not work the floor very often, but had been pulled to do so that day. She stated they used to have a little form, with pre and post weights. Vital signs. She looked through the resident's record but was unable to locate any communication. In an interview on 5/2/18 at 1:37 PM, the Assistant Director of Nursing #88, stated We have a little form, with weights, treatment changes. Might be in her packet. Probably downstairs with (Receptionist). Let me go check. At 5/2/18 at 1:51 PM Staff #33 provided a blank copy of the [MEDICAL TREATMENT] Patient Data Sheet. It goes in the envelope and the van driver takes it to [MEDICAL TREATMENT], then they fill it out, bring it back. I don't know what happens then, I guess the nurse puts it in the computer? This resident went to the hospital. I wonder if we didn't make her a packet (to send to [MEDICAL TREATMENT]) when she got back? I will go do that. At 5/2/18 at 2:00 PM, ADON #88 stated she asked the transportation driver what he did with the papers he brought back from the [MEDICAL TREATMENT] Center. She said he left the envelope in the resident's room after each appointment. ADON #88 located the 4/28 and 5/1/18 [MEDICAL TREATMENT] Patient Data Sheets in the resident's room. She stated the nurse should have obtained and reviewed them and put them in the chart. She explained if medication orders changed or something significant occurred at [MEDICAL TREATMENT], the center would usually call and notify the facility. However, the [MEDICAL TREATMENT] Center recorded vital signs, weights, lab results and other communication on the forms and the facility should still be obtaining these. | 2020-09-01 |
