Actual Harm

out of the system by the nurses for Resident #43.Interview on 10/20/25 at 10:54 A.M. of Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) #311 revealed Resident #43's indwelling catheter became occluded frequently, and it was common for her to have sediment in her urine and that was probably why she changed Resident #43's catheter on 09/26/25. LPN #311 stated she did not remember changing the catheter on 09/26/25 or if Resident #43's urine was hazy and amber colored. LPN #311 revealed if she reported Resident #43's urine to the Physician or Nurse Practitioner she would have documented it. LPN #311 stated she remembered reporting Resident #43's urine culture results as soon as she received the lab report to the Physician on 10/10/25. LPN #311 stated she did not recall details of the lab report and why it took so long for her to receive it. LPN #311 revealed someone else might have printed it off for her.Interview on 10/20/25 at 3:50 P.M. of Nurse Practitioner (NP) #301 revealed if Resident #43's urine was slightly hazy yellow and had some sediment in it he should have been notified. NP #301 revealed any time there was a change in urine clarity and consistency it could warrant further looking into. NP #301 revealed it seemed like it took a long time for the on-call Physician to be notified of the urine results which were reported on 10/09/25 at 1:45 P.M. NP #301 stated if Resident #43's urine was positive for a urinary tract infection the Bactrim could have been administered sooner.
