On 10/9/23, client was seen by APRN as follow up due to a possible infected bug bite (he received a dose of Rocephin and started Kelfex 500 mg on weekend). APRN ordered that he be taken to Arkansas Children’s Hospital. Client was seen in the ER and stayed overnight for observation. He received IV antibiotics and fluids and the area was drained by the physician. Client returned to facility 10/10/23. He will be on oral antibiotics for 1 week and follow-up with APRN on 10/13/23.
Licensing requested the hospital discharge paperwork from facility. The facility responded the hospital did not know what the bug bite was from, the antibiotics cleared the bite and the resident is doing well.
