Saint Anthony: Care Protocol Deficiency - IN
The resident, identified in records only as Resident J, has diabetes mellitus and receives insulin through a sliding scale, meaning the dose depends on where the blood sugar lands. A physician's order in place since March 2023 spells out the doses precisely: a reading between 150 and 199 calls for two units of Lispro insulin; between 200 and 249, four units; between 250 and 299, six units. Anything over 400 requires 10 units and a call to the doctor.
The medication administration records tell a different story. On October 8, a 6:00 a.m. blood sugar of 155 was recorded. No insulin was given. On October 22, the reading was 185 at the same hour. No insulin was given. In November, a 4:00 p.m. blood sugar of 244 went untreated. On November 30, the reading climbed to 290 at 4:00 p.m. No insulin was given. In December, a morning reading of 222 was documented with no medication administered.
The resident also receives Glargine insulin, a long-acting form ordered at 25 units each night at bedtime. Records show that dose was skipped on October 30 and again on November 30.
When inspectors spoke with the administrator on the morning of December 23, she said she had no further information about the missed dosages.
Resident J had no documented cognitive impairments, according to a November 2025 assessment. The care plan, updated as recently as November 25, listed diabetes mellitus as a diagnosis and noted that medications were to be given as the physician ordered.
Five missed doses. Blood sugar at 290 with nothing given. The administrator had no answers.
