surveyor asked the facility if they had been made aware that the Entresto for Resident #3 was not available and not administered prior to the resident being sent out to the emergency room for high blood pressure?
The ADON stated they were not made aware of missing medications. When asked if the facility waits to see if insurance will pay for a medication prior to providing it, the LNHA stated the facility will purchase and provide the required medicine. The surveyor informed the facility of the hospital documentation that questioned why Resident #3 became suddenly hypertensive if they received their medications. The LNHA stated they interviewed LPN #1 who confirmed there was no documentation regarding the unavailability of
the Entresto, and no further information was provided. NJAC 8:39-27.1(a)
