During an interview on 4/4/25 at 10:04 a.m., Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) 17 indicated she was aware that Resident 366 was incontinent of bowel. He had been incontinent of bowel since his admission so she assumed that was just his baseline.
The resident had not mentioned to her that he had not been incontinent prior to admission or had concerns about being incontinent.
When LPN 17 observed that the majority of bowel movements were documented as loose/diarrhea, she indicated that resident was also receiving a stool softener so that might be something they should review. LPN 17 indicated she did have to change the wound vac to the resident's sacrum daily at least due to the bowel movements and it was painful for the resident.
She gave him two pain pills prior every time to help with the pain.
The NP was in the building and LPN 17 would mention the diarrhea and the resident stating it started with the antibiotics to see if they should test for Clostridioides difficile (C-diff).
During an interview on 4/4/25 at 11:00 a.m., LPN 13 indicated she was a nurse manager for the facility and would help cover the unit but was not as familiar with the residents. In general, if a resident was new and having loose stool or diarrhea for more than a day, they would notify the doctor to inform them and possibly get orders for a c-diff test. If a resident had orders for stool softeners and was having loose stools, then the stool softeners should be held.
During an interview on 4/4/25 at 11:26 a.m., Nurse Practitioner (NP) 15 indicated they were aware Resident 366 had diarrhea and had stopped the stool softener and started him on probiotics at the beginning of the week.
The Medical Director indicated the resident had been severely malnourished and they were working on fixing that and helping with wound healing. He was also a diabetic that was on medication that could cause diarrhea. NP 15 indicated they would test for c-diff since he was on antibiotics too.
The Medical Director indicated the resident had just informed him that he was severely lactose intolerant so they would ensure that he was not receiving milk products or proteins as well. NP 15 indicated the resident's current dietary supplements did not have lactose.
A policy related to bowel incontinence was requested from the Regional Nurse Consultant (RNC) on 4/4/25 at 11:29 a.m.
The RNC was informed of the concern related to administering stool softeners to a resident with diarrhea for 3 days on 4/4/25 at 1:12 p.m. and a policy was requested.
