Based on staff interview and clinical record review, the facility staff failed to follow the medical provider orders for medication administration for 1 of 16 sampled residents (Resident #6). The findings included:For Resident #6, the facility staff failed to administer the oral medication, Cyclobenzaprine as ordered by the medical provider. Cyclobenzaprine is a muscle relaxant used to treat skeletal muscle conditions such as pain and injury. Resident #6's diagnosis list indicated diagnoses, which included, but not limited to Encephalopathy, Hemiplegia and Hemiparesis, Congestive Heart Failure, Epilepsy, Multiple Rib Fractures Left Side, Fracture of Nasal Bones, Fracture of Left Thumb, and Fracture of Shaft of Left Clavicle. The most recent minimum data set (MDS) with an assessment reference date (ARD) of 1/23/25 assigned the resident
a brief interview for mental status (BIMS) summary score of 15 out of 15 indicating the resident was cognitively intact. Resident #6's clinical record included a medical provider order for Cyclobenzaprine HCL 10 mg by mouth three times a day for muscle spasms. A review of Resident #6's September 2024 Medication Administration Record (MAR) revealed an omission for the administration of Cyclobenzaprine
on 9/08/24 at 6:00 AM. On 9/05/25 at 12:25 PM, surveyor spoke with the Interim Administrator concerning
the Cyclobenzaprine omission. She stated the medication was not signed off and she would assume that meant it was not given. No further information regarding this concern was presented to the survey team prior to the exit conference on 9/05/25.
