On two days in November, staff at Claremont Nursing and Rehabilitation Center failed to distribute hundreds of doses of medications for a host of conditions including pain, diabetes, heart failure and mental illness, according to the Pennsylvania Department of Health. The department said “these missed medications had the potential to cause the residents discomfort or pain, to exacerbate medical conditions including blood pressure, cardiac and diabetic issues, increase the potential for seizures, and jeopardize the health and safety.”
It prompted the department to declare “immediate jeopardy” at the skilled nursing facility on the outskirts of Carlisle in Cumberland County. Immediate jeopardy, the most severe designation the department can apply, means residents are in immediate danger of severe harm.
