F 0550 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Few Honor the resident's right to a dignified existence, self-determination, communication, and to exercise his or her rights. **NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on observation, interview and record review, the facility staff failed to ensure one (1) of 22 sampled residents (Resident 18) was cared for in a dignified way by failing to sit and be at eye level while feeding Resident 18 on 4/22/2024. This failure had the potential to negatively affect Resident 18's dignity and self-worth. Findings: A review of Resident 18's admission Record, indicated Resident 18 was admitted to the facility on [DATE] and was readmitted on [DATE] with diagnoses including, but not limited to Parkinson's disease (a condition that causes nerve damage in the brain that affects, speech and movement) and dementia (the loss of cognitive functioning - thinking, remembering, and reasoning - to such an extent that it interferes with a person's daily life and activities). A review of Resident 18's Physician's Orders, dated 3/30/2023, indicated the resident should receive a regular dysphagia (difficulty swallowing foods or liquids) puree (a smooth, creamy substance) texture, thick liquids- nectar consistency (a liquid slightly thicker than water) double portions as ordered. A review of Resident 18's Minimum Data Set (MDS, a standardized assessment and care screening tool), dated 3/21/2024, indicated Resident 18 was severely impaired with cognitive (mental action or process of acquiring knowledge and understanding) skills for daily decision making. Resident 18 was dependent (helper does all of the effort. Resident does none of the effort to complete the activity or the assistance of 2 or more helpers is requires for the resident to complete the activity) on staff to help with feeding. During a concurrent observation and interview on 4/22/2024 at 12:27 PM with Certified Nursing Assistant 1 (CNA1) and Infection Preventionist Nurse (IPN) in Resident 18's room, CNA 1 was standing and leaning in front of Resident 18, while feeding the resident in a wheelchair. IPN stated it is important to sit while feeding the resident to make sure nothing is being pushed down the resident's mouth and to be at eye level. During an interview on 4/25/2024 at 8:22 AM with Restorative Nursing Assistant (RNA), RNA stated staff should sit down while feeding the resident to provide dignity. During an interview on 4/25/2024 at 10:52 AM with the Director of Nursing (DON), the DON stated the (continued on next page) Any deficiency statement ending with an asterisk (*) denotes a deficiency which the institution may be excused from correcting providing it is determined that other safeguards provide sufficient protection to the patients.

F 0558 Reasonably accommodate the needs and preferences of each resident. Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm **NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Findings: Residents Affected - Some 1.b. A review of Resident 24's admission Record indicated Resident 24 was initially admitted to the facility on [DATE] and readmitted on [DATE], with diagnoses that included history of fall, history of transient ischemic attack (a temporary disruption in the blood supply to part of the brain), generalized muscle weakness, and other lack of coordination. During a review of Resident 24's Minimum Data Set (MDS- a comprehensive assessment and screening tool) dated 2/20/2024, the MDS indicated Resident 24 was unable to follow commands, and required maximum assistance with the toilet, personal hygiene, change of position and transfer. A review of Resident 24's care plan titled At risk for falls, injury related due to fall related to impaired safety judgment, impaired gait and mobility weakness dated 10/25/2021, revised on 02/20/2024, indicated Resident 24 required assist with transfer and mobility as needed (PRN) and Resident 24 also required monitoring of fall. The care plan indicated interventions included Certified Nurse Assistant (CNA) to remind resident to use call light when attempting to ambulate or transfer, CNA will make sure Resident 24's call light is placed within reach while in bed or proximity to the bed. During a concurrent interview and observation on 4/22/2024 at 8:00 AM, in the Resident 24's room, Resident 24 was observed resting in bed and tried to get up to her right-side of the bed and she was asking for help and there was no CNA present. During the observation, Resident 24's call light device was out of the resident's reach and was placed on the floor near the middle of the headboard closed to the wall. Resident 24 stated she was not able to find her call light device. Resident 24 stated she needed help to get up from her bed. During an interview on 4/22/2024 at 08:03 AM with CNA 6 (assigned to Resident 24 on 4/22/2024 during the 7 AM to 3 PM), CNA6 stated the call light should have been placed on Resident 24's bed close to the resident for easy reach, so that the resident is able to get service in a timely manner. CNA 6 also stated this way, Resident 24 can be prevented from having another fall. During an interview on 4/22/2024 at 10:31 AM with Licensed Vocational Nurse (LVN) 8, LVN 8 stated the call light should have been on Resident 24's bed close to the resident for easy reach. LVN 8 stated it is important to ensure the call light was withing the resident's reach so that Resident 24 can get service in a timely manner and can prevent resident from another fall incident. During a review of the facility's policy and procedure titled Answering the call light revised September 2022, indicated each resident is provided with a means to call staff directly for assistance from his/her bed and the purpose of the call system is to ensure timely responses to the resident's requests and needs. The policy also indicated, ensure that the call light is accessible to the resident when in bed, from the toilet, from the shower, bathing facility and from the floor. Based on observation, interview, and record review, the facility failed to ensure the call light was within reach for two of 22 sample residents (Resident 94 and 24). This deficient practice had the potential for a delay in necessary care and services for Resident 94 and 24.

F 0558 Findings: Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm 1. A review of Resident 94's admission Record indicated resident was admitted on [DATE] with the following diagnosis of hemiplegia (paralysis on one side of the body) affecting the right dominant side and muscle weakness. Residents Affected - Some A review of Resident 94's History and Physical (H&P), dated 3/9/2024, indicated resident does not have the capacity to understand and make decisions. A review of Resident 94's Minimum Data Set (MDS), dated [DATE], indicated resident is moderately impaired in cognitive skills (ability to understand and make decision) for daily decision making. The MDS also indicated resident required substantial/maximal assistance (helper does more than half the effort. Helper lifts or hold trunk or limbs and provides more than half the effort) with eating, oral hygiene, and personal hygiene. Resident 94's is dependent (helper does all of the effort. Resident does none of the effort to complete the activity. Or, the assistance of 2 or more helpers is required for the resident to complete the activity) with toileting hygiene, shower/bath self, upper body dressing, lower body dressing and putting on/taking off footwear. A review of Resident 94's Occupational Therapy (OT) Evaluation, dated 3/6/2024, indicated resident's right elbow/ forearm can flex up to 45 degrees, right shoulder flex 0 degrees, and right wrist flex 0 degrees. OT evaluation also indicated resident's right upper extremity strength is impaired. During an observation on 4/22/2024 at 11:40 AM, Resident 94 was observed with a call light placed on the bed beside of the resident's right shoulder. During an interview on 4/24/2024 at 8:14 AM, Director of Staff Development (DSD) stated resident is unable to move her right arm since admission. During an interview on 4/24/2024 at 8:27 AM, Physical Therapy (PT) stated Resident 94's right elbow can only move 45 degrees actively (the space in which you move a part of your body by using your muscles). During an interview on 4/24/2024 at 8:39 AM, DSD stated the call light is not within Resident 94's reach and it is too high for the resident to reach. DSD also stated it is not okay because the resident is unable to use the call light to call facility staff in case of an emergency. During an interview on 4/29/2024 at 10:45 AM, the Director of Nursing (DON) stated it is not okay for the call light to not be within Resident 94's reach because the facility needs to make sure the resident's needs are promptly met or if the resident were to have an emergency. A review of the facility's Policy and Procedure titled Answering the Call Light, revised 9/2022, indicated to ensure that the call light is accessible to the resident when in bed, from the toilet, form the shower or bathing facility and from the floor.

F 0578 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Few Honor the resident's right to request, refuse, and/or discontinue treatment, to participate in or refuse to participate in experimental research, and to formulate an advance directive. **NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on observation, interview, and record review, the facility failed to ensure one of five (5) sampled Residents (Resident 107) was given information to formulate an advance directive (written statement of a resident's wishes regarding medical treatment, often including a living will, made to ensure those wishes are carried out should the resident be unable to communicate them to the doctor). This deficient practice had the potential to cause conflict in carrying out the Resident 107's wishes for medical treatment and health care decisions. Findings: A review of Resident 107 admission Record indicated resident was admitted on [DATE] with the following diagnoses of arthritis (joint inflammation) and sciatica (pain, weakness, numbness, or tingling in the leg). A review of Resident 107's History and Physical (H&P), dated 4/5/2024, indicated resident has the capacity to understand and make decisions. A review of Resident 107's Minimum Data Set (MDS, a standardized care screening and assessment tool), dated 4/8/2024, indicated resident had an intact cognitive (ability to understand and make decision) skills for daily decision making. MDS also indicated Resident 107 required set up or clean up assistance (helper sets up or cleans up; resident completes the activity. Helper assists only prior to or following the activity) with eating, oral hygiene, toileting hygiene and personal hygiene. Resident 107 required substantial/maximal assistance (helper does more than half the effort. Helper lifts or holds trunk or limbs and provides more than half the effort) with shower/bathe self and upper body dressing. During a record review on 4/23/2024 at 12:07 PM, there was no advance directive noted in the chart. Resident 107's Physician Orders for Life Sustaining Treatment (POLST, form is a written medical order form a physician that give people more control over their own care by specifying the types of medical treatment they want during serious illness) was noted with advance directive box unchecked. During a concurrent interview and record review of Resident 107 POLST on 4/24/2024 at 11:41 AM, Administrator (ADM) and Assistant Administrator (AADM) stated the Social Services Director (SSD) was not supposed to put a check mark on the No Advance Directive box on Section D. ADM also stated SSD needs to confirm if the resident has an advance directive or not before adding the check mark; and if not, the SSD should provide the resident an option to formulate an advance directive. ADM also stated it should be done at the time of admission. ADM stated there was no documented evidence that the resident was given an option to formulate an advance directive. A review of the facility's Policy and Procedure titled, Advanced Directive, dated 3/23/2022, indicated at the time of admission, admission staff or designee will inquire about the existence of an Advance Directive. Policy also indicated the facility will honor resident's Advance Directive and will provide information but if no Advance Directive exist then the facility provides the resident with an opportunity to complete one.

F 0580 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Few Immediately tell the resident, the resident's doctor, and a family member of situations (injury/decline/room, etc.) that affect the resident. **NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on interview and record review, the facility failed to notify the resident's physician/ medical doctor (MD) when there was a delay in discharging one (1) of 22 sampled residents (Resident 108) to home from 3/8/2024 to 3/9/2024. This deficient practice had the potential to result in an unsafe discharge. Findings: A review of Resident 108's admission Record indicated Resident 108 was admitted to the facility on [DATE], with diagnoses of generalized osteoarthritis (the cartilage within a joint begin to break down and the underlying bone begins to change causing reduced function and disability), syncope (fainting) and collapse, and history of falling. A review of the Resident 108's Physician Order Summary Report, dated 2/29/2024, indicated Resident 108's last covered day (LCD, the last day insurance company pays for in full or in part) on 3/7/2024 and discharge home on 3/8/2024. A review of Resident 108's Minimum Data Set (MDS, a comprehensive standardized assessment and screening tool), dated 3/1/2024, indicated Resident 108's cognitive (mental action or process of acquiring knowledge and understanding) skills for daily decision making were intact. The MDS indicated Resident 108 required partial/moderate assistance (helper does less than half the effort) with shower/bathe, lower body dressing, chair/bed-chair transfer, toilet transfer, and walking ten feet. A review of Resident 108's Change of Condition (COC, tool used by health care professionals when communicating about critical changes in a resident's status), dated 3/7/2024, indicated Resident 108 was found in kneeling position next to foot of bed on right side. Resident 108 stated she tried to go to the restroom by herself and lost footing. A review of Resident 108's Nursing Notes, dated 3/8/2024, indicated to discharge Resident 108 home on 3/9/2024, Saturday. A review of Resident 108's Nursing Notes, dated 3/9/2024, indicated Resident 108 was discharged home. A review of Resident 108's Physician Progress Notes (PPN), dated 3/9/2024, indicated the Medical Doctor (MD) came to see Resident 108 but was Resident 108 was discharged today (3/9/2024). MD was not able to see the resident. PPN indicated MD had to check Resident 108's records since MD was notified Resident 108 had a fall on 3/7/2024 at 5:30 AM and was waiting for X-Ray (an imaging study that takes pictures of bones and soft tissues) reports after the fall. During an interview on 4/25/2024 at 3:19 PM with Registered Nurse 1 (RN 1), RN 1 stated when residents' insurance had a last covered day, the doctor would be notified of the LCD, and the doctor would order for the resident to be discharged at a later date. RN 1 stated if a resident was not discharged home on the day of the discharge in accordance with the physician's order, the nurse need to notify the MD.

Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm During a concurrent interview and record review of Resident 108's medical records on 4/25/2024 at 3:24 PM with RN 2, RN 2 stated MD ordered for Resident 108 to be discharged on 3/8/2024. RN 2 stated Resident 108 was not discharged on 3/8/2024. RN 2 stated Resident 108 was discharged on 3/9/2024, which was not what the MD had ordered. Residents Affected - Few During a concurrent interview and record review of Resident 108's medical records on 4/25/2024 at 3:56 PM with the Director of Nursing (DON), the DON stated Resident 108 was discharged from the facility on 3/9/2024. The DON stated Resident 108 had an order to be discharged on 3/8/2024 which was placed on 2/29/2024. The DON stated the doctor needed to be notified and an order received to discharge Resident 108 on 3/9/2024. The DON stated, according to the COC report, Resident 108 had a fall on 3/7/2024 (two days prior to being discharged ) and according to the PPN, it did not seem that MD was aware that Resident 108 was discharged home when the MD came to the facility on 3/9/2024. A review of the facility's Policy and Procedure titled, Notification of Change in Condition, dated 8/25/2021, indicated physicians are informed of changes in the resident's condition. The facility must immediately consult with the resident's physician and/or Nurse Practitioner (NP) where there is a decision to discharge the resident from the center. When making notification of above, the facility must ensure that all pertinent information is available and provided upon request to the physician and/or NP. A review of the facility's Policy and Procedure titled, Transfer and Discharge, dated 3/23/2022, indicated the Interdisciplinary Team (IDT, group of healthcare professionals from diverse fields who work in a coordinated manner toward a common goal for the resident) and the Attending Physician will determine that the resident may be appropriate for discharge.

F 0641 Ensure each resident receives an accurate assessment. 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 the Minimum Data Set (MDS, an assessment and care screening tool) accurately reflected the status of two (2) of 2 sampled residents (Residents 77 and 31) by failing to: Residents Affected - Some 1. Resident 77 did not have an accurate assessment for falls. 2. Resident 31 did not have an accurate assessment for restorative nursing program (a program that helps residents maintain any progress made during therapy treatments, enabling them to achieve their highest practicable level of functioning) received. This deficient practice had the potential for the facility to not develop and implement an individualized care plan, which could negatively affect Resident 77 and 31's overall well-being. Findings: 1. A review of Resident 77's admission Record, indicated resident was originally admitted on [DATE] with the following diagnoses of muscle weakness and dementia (impaired ability to remember, think, or make decisions that interferes with doing everyday activities). A review of Resident 77's History and Physical, dated 10/11/2023, indicated resident does not have the capacity to understand and make decisions. A review of Resident 77's Minimum Data Set (MDS, a standardized assessment and care screening tool), dated 2/8/2024, indicated resident is severely impaired (never/rarely made decisions) with cognitive (mental action or process of acquiring knowledge and understanding through thought, experience, and the senses) skills for daily decision making. MDS indicated resident required partial/moderate assistance (helper does less than half the effort. Helper lifts, holds, or supports trunk or limbs, but provides less than half the effort) with eating, oral hygiene, and personal hygiene. Resident required substantial/maximal assistance (helper does more than half the effort. Helper lifts or holds trunk or limbs and provides more than half the effort) with upper and lower body dressing. Resident 77 was dependent (helper does all of the effort. Resident does none of the effort to complete the activity or the assistance of 2 or more helpers is required for the resident to complete the activity) toileting hygiene, shower/bathe self and putting on/taking off footwear. A review of Resident 77's Interdisciplinary Team (IDT, a group of healthcare professionals from complementary fields who work in tandem to treat a patient) fall, dated 6/12/2023, indicated resident had a fall incident on 6/8/2023. A review of Resident 77's Progress Notes, dated 7/10/2023, timed at 7:03 PM, indicated resident had a Change of Condition (COC, a sudden clinically deviation from a resident's baseline in physical, cognitive, behavioral, or functional domains) for falls. During a concurrent record review of Resident 77's MDS, dated [DATE] and interview with the Director of Nursing (DON) on 4/25/2024 at 12:32 PM, the DON stated the MDS did not and should have accurately reflected Resident 77's fall of two or more falls since reentry on 5/28/2023 in accordance with the MDS.

F 0641 residents plan of care. Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm A review of the facility's Policy and Procedure titled, Resident Assessments, revised 10/2023, indicated information in the MDS assessments will consistently reflect information in the progress notes, plans of care and resident observations/ interviews. Residents Affected - Some 2. Resident 31 did not have an accurate assessment for restorative nursing program (a program that helps residents maintain any progress made during therapy treatments, enabling them to achieve their highest practicable level of functioning) received. These deficient practices have the potential for the facility to not develop and implement an individualized care plan, which could negatively affect Resident 77 and 31's overall wellbeing. Findings: 2. A review of Resident 31's admission Record indicated Resident 31 was initially admitted to the facility on [DATE] and readmitted on [DATE], with diagnoses of abnormal posture, contracture (a condition of shortening and hardening of muscles, tendons, or other tissue, often leading to deformity and rigidity of joints) of the right knee, and contracture of the left knee. A review of Resident 31's MDS, dated [DATE], indicated Resident 31's cognitive (mental action or process of acquiring knowledge and understanding) skills for daily decision making were intact. The MDS indicated Resident 31 was dependent (helper does all the effort) toileting hygiene, shower/bathe self, lower body dressing, putting on/taking off footwear, sit to lying, lying to sitting on bed, chair/bed-to-chair transfer, and tub/shower transfer. The MDS indicated Resident 31 had a functional limitation in range of motion on both lower extremities (LEs - hip, knee, ankle, and foot). The MDS indicated Resident 31 did not receive restorative nursing care. A review of Resident 31's Medication Review Report are as follows: a. Order dated 8/4/2024, Restorative Nurse Aide (RNA) order, passive range of motion (PROM, the range that can be achieved by external means such as another person or a device) on bilateral upper extremities (BUE - both arms from shoulder to hands) every day seven (7) times per week as tolerated. a. Order dated 2/21/2024, RNA PROM exercise on head and neck motion as tolerated five (5) times per week. b.

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 provide necessary respiratory care services for one (1) of 1 sampled resident (Resident 17) for respiratory care area by failing to ensure Resident 17's nasal cannula (NC, device used to deliver supplemental oxygen placed directly on a resident's nostril) tubing was changed weekly per facility's policy. Residents Affected - Few This deficient practice had the potential for Resident 17 to develop a respiratory infection. Findings: A review of Resident 17's admission Record indicated Resident 17 was initially admitted to the facility on [DATE] and readmitted on [DATE], with diagnoses of pleural effusion (fluid buildup in the space between the lung and the chest wall), hypertensive heart (heart problems caused by high blood pressure) and chronic kidney disease (gradual loss of kidney damage where kidneys cannot filter the blood the way they should) with heart failure (a lifelong condition in which the heart muscle cannot pump enough blood to meet the body's needs for blood and oxygen) and with end stage renal disease (the final, permanent stage of chronic kidney disease where kidney has declined and can no longer function on their own), and hypoxemia (an abnormally low concentration of oxygen in the blood). A review of Resident 17's Minimum Data Set (MDS, a standardized assessment and care planning tool), dated 3/6/2024, indicated Resident 17's cognitive (mental action or process of acquiring knowledge and understanding) skills for daily decision making were severely impaired. The MDS indicated Resident 17 required supervision or touch assistance for toileting hygiene, shower/bathe self, lower body dressing and chair/bed-to-chair transfer. The MDS also indicated Resident 17 received oxygen therapy. A review of Resident 17's Physician's order, dated 1/30/2024, indicated oxygen at two (2) to four (4) liters per minute (LPM, volume of oxygen supplied over a period of time) via nasal cannula as needed to keep oxygen saturation (SpO2, measures how much oxygen is carried by the hemoglobin [Hgb, a protein in red blood cells that carries oxygen to the body's organs and tissues and transports carbon dioxide from the resident's organs and tissues back to the lungs] in the blood or how well a resident is breathing) equal to or greater than 92% as needed. A review Resident 17's Oxygen Saturation Summary indicated Resident 17 received oxygen via nasal cannula on the following dates: 3/27/2024, 3/28/2024, 3/29/2024, 3/30/2024, 3/31/2024, 4/1/2024, 4/2/2024, 4/3/2024, 4/6/2024, 4/7/2024, 4/8/2024, 4/9/2024, 4/12/2024, 4/13/2024, 4/14/2024, 4/15/2024, 4/18/2024, 4/19/2024, 4/20/2024, 4/21/2024, 4/23/2024.

Resident 17 stated she had used her nasal cannula to receive oxygen earlier today. The nasal cannula tubing connected to the oxygen tank was not dated. The end of the nasal cannula tubing containing the prongs were placed inside of a clear bag. The bag containing the nasal cannula was dated 3/27/2024 (27 days prior to observation date 4/23/2024). During a concurrent observation and interview on 4/23/2024 at 4:21 PM with Licensed Vocational Nurse 3 (LVN 3), LVN 3 stated oxygen tubing was supposed to be labeled with the first date the oxygen tubing was used. LVN 3 stated there was no date on Resident 17's oxygen tubing. LVN 3 stated the bag containing Resident 17's tubing was dated on 3/27/2024. LVN 3 stated the oxygen tubing should be labeled upon using and changed regularly for infection control. LVN 3 stated if the oxygen tubing was not changed regularly, the tubing could harbor bacteria because of the moisture and cause an infection. During an interview on 4/24/2024 at 5:25 PM with the Infection Prevention Nurse (IPN), the IPN stated the oxygen tubing should be labeled to know when the tubing was last changed. The IPN stated the oxygen tubing should be changed once a week. The IPN stated if the oxygen tubing being used by the resident was undated, it could already be old and dirty. The IPN stated the bacteria from the tubing could expose the resident to an infection. During an interview on 4/25/2024 at 10:52 AM with the Director of Nursing (DON), the DON stated the oxygen tubing should be dated to ensure the oxygen tubing was being replaced weekly. The DON stated the use of an oxygen tubing longer than a week could create cross contamination and put the resident at risk for an infection. During a follow up interview on 4/25/2024 at 6:28 PM with the DON, the DON stated the facility did not have a policy which indicated to date the oxygen tubing to ensure it was changed every seven (7) days. The DON stated there should be a policy for dating the oxygen tubing since it was the best standard of practice to change the oxygen tubing every 7 days. A review of the facility's undated Policy and Procedure titled, Changing of Nasal Cannula/Oxygen Tubing, indicated it is the policy of the facility to change the nasal cannula and oxygen tubing weekly and as needed if the nasal cannula is visibly soiled or damaged. Setup bags are dated and placed with each nasal cannula to prevent the nasal cannula from touching the floor when not being used.

During a Medication Pass observation, Licensed Vocational Nurse 7 (LVN 7) failed to administer Resident 16's medications within 60 minutes of scheduled time of 9 AM on 4/24/2024. This deficient practice had the potential for Resident 16's health and well-being to be negatively impacted due to unintended consequences, such as decreased effectiveness of the medications and adverse reactions (an unwanted effect caused by the administration of a drug) from the medications. b. During a Medication Pass observation, LVN 7 failed to check Resident 48's blood glucose (blood sugar, main sugar found in the blood) and administer insulin (medicine to lower the level of glucose [type of sugar] in the body) before lunch meal on 4/24/2024. This deficient practice had the potential for Resident 48's diabetes not to be effectively managed which could result place the resident at risk for hypoglycemia (low blood sugar), hospitalization, and death. Findings: a. A review of Resident 16's admission Record indicated Resident 16 was originally admitted on [DATE] and readmitted on [DATE], with diagnoses that included asthma (a condition in which a resident's airways become narrow which makes it difficult to breathe), dysphagia (difficulty swallowing), and hypertension (high blood pressure). A review of Resident 16's Minimum Data Set (MDS, a standardized assessment and care screening tool), dated 2/20/2024, indicated Resident 16 had moderately impaired (decisions poor; cues/supervision required) cognitive skills (mental action or process of acquiring knowledge and understanding through thought and the senses) for daily decision making.

LVN 7 stated, If medications were not administered on time, for example blood pressure medications, it can affect the blood pressure of the residents which can cause a change in the residents' condition. b. A review of Resident 48's admission Record indicated Resident 48 was originally admitted on [DATE] with diagnoses that included type 2 diabetes (abnormal blood sugar), muscle weakness, and dementia (long term and often gradual decrease in the ability to think and remember severe enough to affect a person's daily functioning). A review of Resident 48's MDS, dated [DATE], indicated Resident 48 had severely impaired cognitive skills (mental action or process of acquiring knowledge and understanding through thought and the senses) for daily decision making and required supervision with eating and personal hygiene. The MDS indicated, Resident 48 required partial/moderate assistance (helper does more than half the effort) with oral hygiene, upper body dressing. It also indicated that Resident 48 required substantial assistance (helper does more than effort) with toileting hygiene and shower and was dependent with lower body dressing and lower body dressing. A review of Resident 48's Physician's order, dated 3/27/2024, indicated an order on 3/26/2024 to administer insulin Lispro (a fast-acting insulin used to control high blood sugar) per sliding scale (the increasing administration of the pre?meal insulin dose based on the blood sugar level before the meal), subcutaneously (SQ, method of giving a medication in the fatty layer of tissue just under the skin) before meals and at bedtime for diabetes. The MRR indicated sliding scale as follows: For blood sugar less than 70 milligram per deciliter (mg/dL, unit of measurement), follow hypoglycemia protocol and call Doctor. For blood sugar of 0 mg/dL to 199 mg/dL, give 0 units of insulin. 200 mg/dL to 249 mg/dL = give 1 unit of insulin 250 mg/dL to 299 mg/dL = give 2 units of insulin 300 mg/dL to 349 mg/dL = give three (3) units of insulin 350 mg/dL to 399 mg/dL = give four (4) units of insulin 400 mg/dL to 449 mg/dL = give five (5) units of insulin 450 mg/dL to 999 mg/dL = give six (6) units of insulin and call the doctor During an interview on 4/24/2024 at 12:03 PM, ADON stated Resident 48 was due for blood sugar check and insulin administration per sliding scale at 11:30 AM. During a concurrent observation in the dining room and interview with LVN 7 on 4/24/2024 at 12:05 PM, LVN 7 stated, Resident 48 had already started eating and had consumed a small portion of his lunch plate. During a concurrent interview and medication pass observation on 4/24/2024 at 12:07 PM, ADON and LVN 7 checked Resident 48's blood sugar. Resident 48's blood sugar result was 245 mg/dL.

F 0755 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Some stated per the physician's order, Resident 48 should receive 1 unit of insulin Lispro. The ADON added that Resident 48's blood sugar result of 245 was not reliable since it was checked after Resident 48 had already eaten. During an interview on 4/24/2024 at 5 PM with LVN 3, she stated, prior to giving insulin, licensed nurse should have checked Resident 48's blood sugar to see if resident would need to be administered insulin Lispro in accordance with the physician's order. LVN 3 added, checking the blood sugar level and administering the ordered insulin was important to prevent resident from developing hyperglycemia after eating. During an interview on 4/25/2024 at 11:35 AM, the ADON stated that it was important to administer medication as ordered to get the full benefit of the medication and to prevent complications of inconsistent timing of medication administration. The ADON stated, Resident 48's blood sugar check and insulin order were to control the resident's blood sugar, and if it was not given timely, Resident 48 can develop uncontrolled high blood sugar and can cause complications such as death. A review of facility's Policy and Procedure titled, Administering Medications, revised in April 2019, indicated medications are administered in a safe and timely manner, and as prescribed. Medications are administered in accordance with prescriber orders, including any required time frame.

This deficient practice had the potential to negatively impact the delivery of services. Findings: 1. A review of Resident 18 admission Record indicated resident was originally admitted on [DATE] and was readmitted on [DATE] with the following diagnosis of anxiety (feeling of fear, dread, and uneasiness) and dementia (impaired ability to remember, think, or make decisions that interfere with doing everyday activities). A review of Resident 18 Minimum Data Set (MDS; a standardized care screening and assessment tool), dated 3/21/2024, indicated resident severely impaired in cognitive skills for daily decision making. The MDS also indicated resident is dependent (helper does all of the effort. Resident does none of the effort to complete the activity. Or, the assistance of 2 or more helpers is required for the resident to complete the activity). A review of Resident 18's Physician Orders, dated 2/24/2023, indicated Ativan/ lorazepam (medication for anxiety) tablet 0.5 milligrams (mg, unit of measure) give 0.25 mg (half tablet) by mouth at bedtime for anxiety as manifested by physical aggression towards staff. A review of Resident 18's Physician Orders, dated 4/24/2024, indicated amoxicillin (medication for infection) oral tablet 500 mg, give 500 mg by mouth two times a day for wound infection for 7 days until finished. During an observation of the Medication Cart A (Med Cart A), interview, and record review of Resident 18's narcotic drug record for amoxicillin undated, on 4/25/2024 at 10:05 AM, the narcotic drug record indicated refill date on 4/24/2024 (date facility received from the facility's pharmacy) with total of 14 tablets. In addition, it indicated last tablet taken out was signed on 4/24/2024 at 4 PM under tablet number 14.

Observed Resident 18's bubble pack for lorazepam 0.25 mg tablet with 11 tablet (0.25 mg tablets) left. ADON stated, the narcotic drug record for Resident 18's lorazepam was incorrect because it indicated there's 10 tablets left but there were really 11 tablets of lorazepam left in the bubble pack. ADON also stated, the licensed nurse who signed the narcotic drug record under tablet #11 made a mistake by signing under the lorazepam narcotic drug record instead of writing it under Resident 18's narcotic drug record. During an interview the Assistant Director of Nursing (ADON) on 4/25/2024 at 11 AM, the ADON stated he did an investigation of the discrepancy of Resident 18's lorazepam and amoxicillin narcotic drug record and the ADON found out that the licensed nurse (did not identify) who administered the amoxicillin to Resident 18 on 4/25/2024 at 8 AM, mistakenly signed under the lorazepam tablet #11. 2.

Wear Personal Protective Equipment (PPE, protective clothing such as gown, gloves, goggles, mask) when entering an Enhanced Standard Precaution (reducing transmission of organisms through health provider with the use of gown and gloves when caring for the resident) room. This deficient practice has the potential to spread infection to other residents. 2. Ensure the Legionella (a type of bacteria spread through small droplets of water that can cause legionellosis [Legionnaires' Disease, a serious and potentially deadly lung infection]) Water Management Program policy and procedure was fully implemented. This deficient practice had the potential to result in the infection (a process when a microorganism, such as bacteria, fungi, or a virus, enters a person's body and causes harm) and a spread waterborne illness in the facility. Findings: 1. A review of Resident 39's admission Record indicated resident was admitted on [DATE] with the following diagnoses of pressure ulcer (PU, localized skin and soft tissue injuries that form as a result of prolonged pressure and shear, usually exerted over bony prominences) and muscle weakness. A review of Resident 39's History and Physical (H&P), dated 1/13/2024, indicated resident has the capacity to understand and make decisions. A review of Resident 39's Minimum Data Set (MDS, a standardized care screening and assessment tool), dated 1/11/2024, indicated resident was moderately impaired with cognitive (mental action or process of acquiring knowledge and understanding through thought, experience, and the senses) skills for daily decision making. MDS also indicated Resident 39 required partial/moderate assistance (helper does less than half the effort.

There is a need to monitor to ensure the control measures are performing as designed. Control limits, in which a chemical or physical parameter must be maintained, should include a minimum and a maximum value. Examples of chemical and physical control measures and limits to reduce the risk of Legionella growth: Water quality should be measured throughout the system to ensure that changes that may lead to Legionella growth (such as a drop in chlorine levels) are not occurring. Water heaters should be maintained at appropriate temperatures. Decorative fountains should be kept free of debris and visible biofilm. Disinfectant and other chemical levels in cooling towers and hot tubs should be continuously maintained and regularly monitored. Surfaces with any visible biofilm (i.e., slime) should be cleaned.
