During a telephone interview on 6/10/2024 at 10:05 AM, Nurse Practitioner #16 stated if they ordered acute labs for a resident, they typically followed up the next day to review the results. If routine scheduled labs were completed, they expected nursing to notify them as soon as possible of any alterations.
Lab results such as a high white blood cell count and elevated blood urea nitrogen were labs they wanted to be notified about.
They stated they believed they did not work on 2/16/2024 and did not review the resident's labs until after the resident was discharged to the hospital. If they had known the resident's white blood cell count was high, they would have intervened and ordered a chest x-ray and/or urinalysis (often used to check for urinary tract infections).
For the elevated blood urea nitrogen, they would have ordered extra hydration (fluids) by mouth or intravenously (through a vein).
Earlier intervention could have resulted in a different outcome for the resident.
