Develop the complete care plan within 7 days of the comprehensive assessment; and prepared, reviewed,
and revised by a team of health professionals.
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
observation, interview, and record review, the facility failed to ensure care plan was updated and revised for
one of 15 residents (Resident 37) reviewed for care plans when Resident 37's care plan for self-care deficit
was not revised in a timely manner.
This failure did not reflect Resident 37's current care status which had the potential to result in inconsistent
care coordination and unmet care needs for Resident 37.
Findings:
During an observation with Resident 37, on February 6, 2023, at 11:20 AM, inside the room, Resident 37
was lying in bed, with a splint (an appliance used for supporting and protecting tissues) on the right arm
and holding a rolled towel on the left hand. Resident 37 was awake, non-verbal, calm, and did not appear to
be in any acute distress.
A review of Resident 37's clinical record, the admission Record (contains demographic and medical
information) indicated Resident 37 was admitted to the facility on [DATE], with diagnoses that included
hemiplegia/hemiparesis (brain injury resulting in varying degree of weakness on one side of the body)
following cerebral infarction (damage to the brain from interruption of its blood supply) affecting right
dominant side, contracture (a condition of shortening and hardening of muscles, tendons, or other tissues,
often leading to deformity and hardening of joints) of the right elbow and hand, and aphasia (language
disorder that affects a person's ability to communicate).
During an interview and concurrent record review of Resident 37's clinical record with Registered Nurse 1
(RN 1) on February 8, 2023, at 1:38 PM, RN 1 verified that an order dated March 22, 2022 was made for
Restorative Nursing Assistant (RNA) to perform bilateral (both) upper extremity (BUE) Passive Range of
Motion (PROM) 5 x week and then put on right elbow splint and right resting hand splint for 6-7 hrs. or as
tolerated in order to maintain her Range of Motion (ROM) for prevention of worsening contractures. RN 1
also stated the nurse who received this order should have updated the care plan to reflect this intervention
when the order was made. RN 1 further stated Minimum Data Set (MDS - resident assessment tool) nurse
was expected to review and revise the care plan after every quarterly or annual assessments.
During an interview and concurrent record review with the MDS Coordinator on February 8, 2023, at 1:56
PM, the MDS Coordinator stated care plans should reflect resident's problems, goals, and interventions.
The MDS Coordinator also stated the care plan must be accurate, complete, updated and revised as
needed. The MDS Coordinator reviewed Resident 37's Self-care Deficit (ADL - activities of daily

splinting was missed during the past quarterly reviews, and the care plan should have been revised and
updated. The MDS Coordinator further added updating the care plan was important for everyone to be
aware of the resident's plan of care.
During an interview and concurrent record review with the Director of Nursing (DON) on February 9, 2023,
at 2:15 PM, the DON stated care plans should be revised or updated whenever there was a change of
condition, services, and new orders or interventions were made. The DON also stated nurses were
expected to update the care plan when they get an order and for MDS to oversee, review and revise care
plans. DON acknowledged the RNA for bilateral upper extremity PROM and splinting was not reflected in
the care plan.
The facility's policy and procedure, titled, Comprehensive Care Plan, revised 2013, indicated, Policy: A
comprehensive care plan shall be developed for each resident that includes measurable objectives and
timetables to meet the resident's medical, nursing and psychological needs. Procedure: 2. The
comprehensive care plan has been designated to: a. Incorporate identified problem areas .d. Reflect
treatment goals and objectives in measurable outcomes. e. Identified the professional services that are
responsible for each element of care. g. Enhance the optimal functioning of the resident by focusing on a
rehabilitative program .4. Care plans are revised as changes in the resident's condition dictate. Reviews are
made at least quarterly.

Ensure that feeding tubes are not used unless there is a medical reason and the resident agrees; and
provide appropriate care for a resident with a feeding tube.
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
observation, interview, and record review, the facility failed to flush the gastrostomy tube (g-tube - a tube
inserted through the wall of the abdomen directly into the stomach that can be used to give food and
medication to a person) before medication administration for one of one resident (Resident 21) with g-tube
during medication administration observation.
This deficient practice resulted in a clogged g-tube for Resident 21 during medication administration, and
had the potential to delay and compromise Resident 21's nutritional needs.
Findings:
During an observation and concurrent interview with Licensed Vocation Nurse 1 (LVN 1), on February 8,
2023, at 8:28 AM, in the room, LVN 1 was observed administering medications for Resident 21 through
g-tube by gravity. LVN 1 did not flush the g-tube with water before administering the medications. Resident
21's medications were not flowing down, and the g-tube was observed to be clogged while LVN 1 was
giving the medications. LVN 1 stated Resident 21 did not have an order to flush the g-tube with water before
medication administration.
During an interview and concurrent record review with LVN 1, on February 8, 2023, at 8:44 AM, the
Electronic Medication Administration Record indicated Resident 21 had an order to flush the g-tube with 15
ml (milliliter - a unit of measure that equals to one thousandth of a liter) of water before medication
administration. LVN 1 verified the order, and stated the flushing of the g-tube was missed before medication
administration. LVN 1 further stated, It is important to flush the g-tube before giving medications to avoid the
clog.
During an interview with the Director of Nursing (DON), on February 8, 2023, at 9:32 AM, the DON stated,
When giving the medications via g-tube, I will check the order if needs flushing before administration. The
DON further stated, It is important to flush the g-tube before giving the meds [medications] to facilitate the
flow of medications and to avoid clog.
During a review of Resident 21's admission Record (contains demographic and medical information),
indicated that Resident 21 was admitted to the facility on [DATE], with diagnoses which included
Unspecified Dementia (a mental disorder in which a person loses the ability to think, remember, learn,
make decisions, and solve problems), Chronic Kidney Disease (a condition in which the kidneys are
damaged and cannot filter blood as they should), and Encounter for Attention to Gastrostomy (a surgical
opening through the skin of the abdomen to the stomach).
During a review of Resident 21's Order Summary Report (a document with list of physician's orders), order
date November 30, 2022, indicated, Enteral Feed (a way of delivering nutrition directly to the stomach)
Order every shift Flush GT (Gastrostomy Tube) with 15 ml of water before and after medication
administration.
The facility's policy and procedure titled, Specific Medication Administration Procedures, effective date
October 2017, indicated, IIB13: Enteral Tube Medication Administration .G. Flush the tube with at least 15
ml of water prior to medication administration.

Provide pharmaceutical services to meet the needs of each resident and employ or obtain the services of a
licensed pharmacist.
Based on observation, interview, and record review, the facility failed to ensure accurate accounting of two
controlled substances (medications which are used and distributed with control because of the potential for
abuse) for two residents (Residents 2 and 37) in one of two sampled medication carts (Station 1 Medication
Cart A).
This deficient practice had the potential for loss of accountability and increased the risk that medications
may not be available for Residents 2 and 37, when needed, and increased the facility's risk for potential
loss, diversion (transfer of a medication from legal to an illegal use), or accidental exposure to controlled
substances.
Findings:
During an observation of Station 1 Medication Cart A, with Licensed Vocational Nurse 2 (LVN 2), on
February 8, 2023, at 1:31 PM, the following discrepancies were found between the Controlled Drug Record
(a log signed by the nurse with date, time, and amount of medication each time a controlled substance is
given to a resident) and the medication container:
1. Resident 2's Controlled Drug Record for Morphine Sulfate (a drug used to treat moderate to severe pain)
100 mg (milligram - a unit of measurement that equals to a thousandth of a gram) / (per) 5 ml (milliliter - a
unit of measurement that equals to a thousandth of a liter) indicated there were 18.75 ml left. However, the
medication container measurement indicated it was above the line of 20 ml.
2. Resident 37's Controlled Drug Record for Morphine Sulfate 100mg/5mL indicated there were 4.5 ml left.
However, the medication container measurement indicated it was above the line of 8 ml.
During an interview with LVN 2, on February 8, 2023, at 1:31 PM, LVN 2 verified there were discrepancies
between the Controlled Drug Record and amount of medications left in the container as it appears based
on the line measurement. LVN 2 further stated, You can under drug or overdose the resident if not properly
documenting the right amount. Probably somebody gave the incorrect dose. LVN 2 added, During narcotic
drug reconciliation [the process of counting the physical controlled substances and document what is left],
we should accurately document what's the actual amount of medications left in the bottle. I did not notice
the discrepancy this morning when we checked. The error happened when you did not come to work for a
month.
During an observation and concurrent record review with Registered Nurse 1 (RN 1), on February 9, 2023,
at 8:19 AM, in Station 1 office room across the nurse station, RN 1 presented the following documents:
1. Resident 2's Controlled Drug Record for Morphine Sulfate 100mg/5ml indicated there were 18.75 ml left.
However, the medication container measurement indicated it was above the line of 20 ml. RN 1 verified the
discrepancy.
2. Resident 37's Controlled Drug Record for Morphine Sulfate 100mg/5ml indicated there were 2.5 ml left.
However, the medication container measurement indicated it was above the line of 4 ml. RN 1 verified the
discrepancy.

During a telephone interview with the Pharmacy Consultant (Ph-C), on February 9, 2023, at 9:01 AM, the
Ph-C stated nurses were counting the narcotics every shift. The Ph-C further stated, I don't think there will
be variance of 4 or 5 ml in the bottle once they receive medication from the pharmacy, maybe about 2 ml
but not 4 to 5 ml. The Ph-C added, If there's a discrepancy in the amount of medication in the container and
amount in the count sheet, I will ask the DON to investigate and find out what happened because it should
match. The expectation is in the facility policy.
During an observation, interview, and concurrent record review with the DON, RN 2, and LVN 2, on
February 9, 2023, at 9:56 AM, in Station 1 Medication Room, LVN 2 measured Resident 37's Morphine
Sulfate 100mg/5ml, using a tuberculin syringe (a syringe that can hold up to 1 ml of liquid). Controlled Drug
Record indicated there were 1.5 ml left, however, the medication container measurement indicated it was 4
ml. LVN 2 was observed aspirating the medication from the container and then tapping the syringe to
remove air bubbles. LVN 2 measured 2.5 ml of medication from the container. RN 2 measured it again by
using same tuberculin syringe. RN 2 was observed aspirating medication from the container and then
tapped the syringe with spillage to remove air bubbles. RN 2 measured 2.75 ml of medication from the
container. The DON and RN 2 verified there was a discrepancy between the actual amount of medication in
the container and what was documented in the Controlled Drug record. The DON stated there was a
discrepancy.
During an interview with the Administrator, on February 9, 2023, at 2:10 PM, the Administrator stated they
would talk to their pharmacy and order for an alternative form of Morphine Sulfate to avoid issues with
accountability. The Administrator added, That's a good catch, at least now we know there's a problem with
the measurement that is not exact. We will call the pharmacy maybe we can request for a pre-filled syringe
so it's accurate, and we make sure we're giving the right dose to our residents.
During an interview with the DON, on February 10, 2023, at 9:33 AM, the DON stated, It's always not exact
when we receive that medication from the pharmacy. The measurement in the bottle is not accurate. The
DON further stated, It's always above the line but I never receive any report from the nurses that there was
a discrepancy.
During an interview with LVN 1, on February 10, 2023, at 9:59 AM, in Station 2 hallway, LVN 1 stated, I
never had an experience to see like there was 4 or 5 ml over in the Morphine bottle. LVN 1 further stated, If
ever it happens to me that there's a big discrepancy like 2 to 3 ml, I will report it to the DON.
During an interview with the Administrator, on February 10, 2023, at 10:12 AM, the Administrator stated,
They just go with the flow in signing the sheet. We need to do something that it should match. Our system
has to be right. The Administrator added, We need to follow our policy that any discrepancies should be
reported and investigated to fix the problem right away. I don't have any reports form the DON that there
was an investigation in the past regarding discrepancies.
During a review of Resident 2's The Administrator Record (contains demographic and medical information)
indicated that Resident 2 was admitted to the facility, on March 4, 2020, with diagnoses which included
Chronic Kidney Disease (a condition in which the kidneys are damaged and cannot filter blood as they
should), Bilateral Primary Osteoarthritis of Hip (a condition of wear and tear of bone related to aging on
both hips), and Other Chronic Pain (pain that carries on for a long time despite medication or treatment).

Level of Harm - Minimal harm
or potential for actual harm
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
observation, interview, and record review, the facility failed to ensure one of six sampled residents
(Resident 347) was free from significant medication error when Resident 347's controlled medication
(medication used and distributed with control because of the potential for abuse) was not administered
according to physician's order.
Residents Affected - Few
This deficient practice had the potential for Resident 347 not to receive the scheduled medication which
could lead to the resident's decline in health, hospitalization, or death.
Findings:
During medication administration observation with Licensed Vocational Nurse 2 (LVN 2), on February 8,
2023, at 7:56 AM, in Station 1 hallway, LVN 2 was observed preparing medications, and administered all
prepared medications to Resident 347.
During an interview and concurrent record review with LVN 2, on February 8, 2023, at 8:17 AM, the
Electronic Medication Administration Record for Resident 347 indicated an order of Lacosamide
(medication used to treat seizures [uncontrolled body movements and changes in behavior that occur
because of abnormal activity in the brain]) 100 mg (milligram - a unit of measure that equals to one
thousandth of a gram) every 12 hours for Todd's Paralysis (a condition experienced by individuals with
seizures in which is followed by a brief period of temporary paralysis [loss of ability to move some or all of
your body]). The Lacosamide was omitted and was not observed to be given to Resident 347. LVN 2 stated
the Lacosamide medication was given along with other medications to Resident 347.
During an observation and concurrent interview with LVN 2, on February 8, 2023, at 8:22 AM, in Station 1
hallway, LVN 2 was observed checking all the medication bubble packs (a type of packet containing sealed
compartments for medicines to be taken at particular time of the day) in Medication Cart A for Resident
347. The Lacosamide medication bubble pack was missing. LVN 2 stated she would check the medication
room first. LVN 2 came back from the medication room and stated, The medication is in controlled meds
[medication] drawer. LVN 2 was observed searching for the Lacosamide medication bubble pack in one of a
locked drawer in medication cart. When LVN 2 found the Lacosamide medication bubble pack, LVN 2
stated, Sorry, I forgot to give this medication. It happens when you're gone for a month and just came back.
LVN 2 further stated, It's important to check all the orders and give all medications to resident so you don't
under drug them.
During an interview with the Director of Nursing (DON), on February 8, 2023, at 9:32 AM, the DON stated,
All medications should be given as ordered.
During a review of Resident 347's admission Record (contains demographic and medical information),
indicated that Resident 347 was admitted to the facility on [DATE], with diagnoses which included Cerebral
Infarction (occurs as a result of lack of adequate blood supply to brain cells depriving oxygen and vital
nutrient which cause parts of the brain to die off), Hemiplegia and Hemiparesis (paralysis of one side of the
body), and Todd's Paralysis.
During a review of Resident 347's Order Summary Report (document with list of physician's orders), order
date February 3, 2023, indicated, Lacosamide Oral Tablet 100 mg (Lacosamide) Give 1 tablet by mouth two
times a day related to Todd's Paralysis .

indicated that Resident 4 was admitted to the facility on [DATE], with diagnoses which included Unspecified
Atrial Fibrillation (condition of an irregular and often very rapid heart rate that can lead to blood clots in the
heart) and Chronic Combined Congestive Heart Failure [condition when heart ventricles (part of the heart
that receives blood and pump it to the rest of the body) cannot produce enough pressure to push blood into
circulation and cannot relax, expand, or fill with enough blood].
2. During an observation and concurrent interview with LVN 2, on February 8, 2023, at 1:31 PM, in Station
1 Medication Cart A, one bottle of Magnesium SRT Supplement (commonly used for low magnesium [a
nutrient that the body needs in regulating muscle, nerve function, blood sugar levels, and blood pressure]
levels and for a certain type of irregular heartbeat) was found for Resident 26 with an expiration date of
01/2023. LVN 2 verified the medication was expired and stated expired medications should be disposed
and not stored in the medication cart.

Conduct and document a facility-wide assessment to determine what resources are necessary to care for
residents competently during both day-to-day operations (including nights and weekends) and
emergencies.
Based on interview and record review, the facility failed to create a facility assessment specific to the needs
of the facility's population and location as part of the required facility assessment, when the facility
assessment did not include the required water management program.
This deficient practice failed to establish an individualized facility assessment to meet the requirement for a
water management program which had the potential to place the residents at risk for outbreak of an
opportunistic waterborne (a disease or infection that people can catch from infected water) pathogen
causing disease.
Findings:
During an interview and concurrent record review of the Facility Assessment with the Administrator on
February 7, 2023, at 3:08 PM, the Facility Assessment did address a water management program. The
Administrator stated the facility did not have a water management program in place to prevent the
development and transmission of Legionnaires' disease (a severe, often lethal, form of pneumonia [lung
inflammation caused by bacterial, in which the lung air sacs fill with pus], caused by the bacterium
Legionella pneumophila (a bacteria that can be found in water systems such as air conditioners, showers,
sinks, and water fountains) found in both potable and non-potable water systems [showers, sinks and water
fountains]) and other opportunistic waterborne pathogens. The Administrator verified the facility's
assessment failed to show a water management program and assessment was conducted for the facility.
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) guideline, titled, Legionella - Water Management in
Healthcare Facilities, last reviewed on March 25, 2021, indicated, CDC encourages healthcare facilities
included in the scope of ASHRAE [American Society of Heating and Air-Conditioning Engineers] Standard
188 (Section 5.2) to develop and implement comprehensive water management programs. Water
management programs can help reduce the risk for Legionella growth and transmission. A comprehensive
water management program can have additional benefits in the control of other water-related
healthcare-associated infections. Water management programs should therefore be monitored for their
efficacy in reducing risk for a variety of pathogens.
