71 GUARDIAN ELDER CARE AT WHEELING 515002 20 HOMESTEAD AVENUE WHEELING WV 26003 2019-08-06 684 D 1 1 WJ7O11 **NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** > Based on medical record review, Hospice service contract and staff interview, the facility failed to ensure prescribed Hospice services were provided to a resident in accordance with professional standards of practice. This practice was found for one (1) of one (1) Hospice resident reviewed during the survey. In addition the facility failed to ensure staff followed physician orders [REDACTED]. This practice was found for one (1) of thirty-one (31) residents reviewed during the survey. Resident identifiers: #130 and #233. Facility census: 140. Findings include: a) Resident #130 On 07/31/19 at 11:45 AM, review of the medical record revealed Resident #130 was admitted to Hospice services on 07/19/19 for a terminal health condition. Continued review of the medical record found no evidence of documentation of further Hospice care visits following her admission to Hospice services. Review of the Hospice care plan created on admission was silent for the identification of services to be provided. After reviewing the medical record on 07/31/19 at 12:35 PM, the Director of Nursing (DON) was unable to locate documentation of Hospice visits following Resident #130's initial admission to Hospice services. The DON stated, I am sure that they have been here to visit, but there is nothing to prove it. I agree their care plan does not even tell who is going to visit and when. Review of the facility agreement/contract with the contracted Hospice services provided by the DON revealed the following (typed as written): .III Services provided by Hospice: .C. Hospice shall develop the Plan of care to be provided to the Home specifying information pertinent to the resident's treatment. The Plan will be updated bi-weekly by the hospice team . M. Documentation of all visits by Hospice staff shall be placed on the Home chart at the time of the visit . b) Resident #233 Review of medical records for Resident #233, found an order with a start date of 07/26/19 to give Meropenem Solution one (1) gram intravenously (IV), to treat an infection. On 07/30/19 at 11:16 AM a bag of Meropenem Solution hanging on a pole contained liquid which was approximately one (1) inch from the bottom of the bag, that had not been delivered to the resident intravenously. At this time registered nurse (RN) #97 agreed she had disconnected the IV medication and agreed all of the medications was not delivered to the resident and stated I could have run it all. Registered nurse #97 then removed the IV medication from the pole. 2020-09-01
