F 0552 Ensure that residents are fully informed and understand their health status, care and treatments. Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm A review of Resident 20's admission Record, indicated Resident 20 was admitted in October 2023 with diagnoses including dementia (a decline in cognitive abilities that affects a person's ability to think, remember, and perform daily activities), psychotic disturbance, and schizophrenia (serious mental illness that affects a person's thoughts, feelings, and behaviors). Residents Affected - Few A review of Resident 20's Minimum Data Set (MDS; a tool used to assess the health status of residents in nursing homes), dated 6/19/24, indicated Resident's 20 Brief Interview on Mental Status (BIMS) score was four out of 15 with severe cognitive impairment. A review of Resident 20's Physician's Order Summary Report, indicated on 12/8/23 Resident 20 was orderd half tablet, 25 mg of quetiapine fumarate (a medication used to treat certain mental/mood disorders) by mouth two times a day for schizophrenia manifested by paranoia (the irrational and persistent feeling that people are out to get you or that you are the subject of persistent, intrusive attention by others), striking out, auditory hallucinations (hearing voices) informed consent by medical doctor. A review of Resident 20's Medication Administration Record, dated 8/24, indicated Resident 20 was receiving half tablet of quetiapine 25 mg by mouth two times a day for schizophrenia. A review of Resident 20's MD progress notes, dated 8/26/24, indicated an informed consent for quetiapine was not completed. A review of Resident 20's Psychiatric Visit Progress Report, indicated Resident 20 was seen by a psychiatrist on 5/10/23 and 8/11/23. A review of Resident 20's electronic record indicated there were no progress notes that indicated an informed consent had been obtained by the physician nor by the psychiatrist. During an interview on 9/4/24 at 3:30 p.m., with Licensed Nurse 5 (LN 5), LN 5 stated licensed nurses might not start residents on antipsychotic medications until the physician had obtained an informed consent from the resident or RP. LN 5 further stated the physican was in charge of explaining and obtaining the informed consent for the prescribed antipsychotic and the licensed nurse should have called or talked to the resident or the RP to ensure the discussion occurred with the prescriber on the new medication and if they agreed to the medication and once this was confirmed then the medication can be started as prescribed to the resident. During an interview on 9/4/24 at 4:25 p.m., with the DON, DON stated the practice in the facility was the physician who ordered the antipsychotic medication must obtain the informed consent from 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 0552 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm resident or RP. The physician will then document the informed consent was obtained in the clinical record of the resident. The informed consent has to be verified by the licensed nurse and then the medication or treatment can begin. DON further stated in general nurses could not give the medication unless the informed consent was verified, or in case of an emergency the physician will be notified and the physician might approve for the medication to be given. Residents Affected - Few During an interview on 9/4/24 at 10 a.m. with the DON, DON stated there was no informed consent completed from 12/8/2023 through 9/3/24 for Resident 20. DON confirmed Resident 20 was started on quetiapine since 12/8/2023 through 9/3/24 without a duly completed informed consent. DON further stated an informed consent should had been verified before the administration of any antipsychotic medication. During an interview on 9/4/24 with the Quality Services Consultant (QCS), QSC stated nurses could not begin an antipsychotic medication without an informed consent being obtained by the physician and residents must have an informed consent before beginning the antipsychotic medication unless it was an emergency. QSC further stated the expectations were licensed nurses must verify with the resident or the RP that an informed consent was discussed, and completed by the physician. A review of facility's policy and procedure titled, Informed Consent, revised June 2021, indicated: 1. The facility shall ensure the resident's rights are maintained and a copy of these rights and pertinent policies are made available to the resident and to any representative of the resident. Among these rights under this section are the right to: a. Receive in advance all information that is material to a decision to accept or refuse treatment, Guidelines 2. The facility staff shall verify the resident or his/her surrogate has given informed consent to the proposed treatment or procedure prior to the initiation of psychotherapeutic drugs, antipsychotic drugs . A review of an All Facilities Letter (AFL) 24-07 dated February 28, 2024 indicated: .Effective January 1, 2024, AB (Assembly Bill) 48 codifies existing regulations that state residents have the right to be free of psychotherapeutic drugs .Examination and Signatures .Before prescribing a psychotherapeutic drug, the prescriber must personally examine the resident and obtain informed written consent signed by the resident or or the resident's representative along with, the signature of the health care professional declaring the required material has been provided .Medical records .The signed written consent must be recorded in the resident's medical record. Before initiating treatment with psychotherapeutic drugs, facility staff must verify that the resident's health record contains written informed consent with the required signatures .Renewals of Informed Consents .Facilities must renew the written informed consent every 6 months .Updates to Federal Regulations for SNFs [Skilled Nursing Facility], ICFs [Intermediate Care Facility] and Hospices [specialized care that provides physical comfort and emotional, social and spiritual support for people nearing the end of life] .AB 48 updates references to Federal regulations found in the HSC [Health and Safety Codes] section 1599.1(i)(2). The updated references align with the 2017 version of Title 42 of the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR). Based on interview and record review, the facility failed to ensure two of 20 sampled residents (Resident 11 and Resident 20) had an informed consent for the use of antipsychotic medications (drugs that mainly treat psychosis-related conditions and symptoms), when: 1. Resident 11's antipsychotic informed consent was not updated every six months; and, 2. Resident 20 had no informed consent for an antipsychotic.

F 0552 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm This failure decreased the facility's potential to ensure residents or their responsible person(s) were fully informed of the risks, benefits, and alternative treatment options prior to the use of an antipsychotic medication. Findings: Residents Affected - Few A review of Resident 11's admission Record, inidcated Resident 11 was admitted to the facility in 2021 with diagnoses including depression (a serious medical illness that negatively affects how you feel, the way you think and how you act) and bipolar disorder (a mental health condition that causes extreme mood swings). The record further indicated Resident 11's sister was the Responsible Party (RP, a person designed to make healthcare decisions for the resident). A review of Resident 11's Order Summary Report, dated 9/5/24, indicated Resident 11 had orders for aripiprazole (antipsychotic medication) 15 milligrams (mg, a unit of measurement) by mouth one time a day for bipolar disorder. Resident 11 had buspirone (an antianxiety medication) 100 mg by mouth at bedtime and venlafaxine (a depression medication) extended release (cannot be crushed) 75 mg by mouth in the morning for crying spells. A review of Resident 11's Verification of Informed Consent Physical Restraint & Psychotropic Medications, dated 6/16/21, indicated Resident 11 had informed consent for buspirone, aripiprazole, and venlafaxine in 6/16/21. During an interview on 9/6/24 at 10:42 a.m. with the Director of Nursing (DON), the DON was aware Resident 11's informed consents for the psychotropic medications were last obtained in 2021 and confirmed informed consents needed to be updated every six months. A review of the facility's policy titled, Informed Consent, dated 6/2021, indicated, .Obtaining informed consent is the responsibility of the licensed healthcare practitioner acting within the scope of his/her professional licensure performs . The policy further stipulated, The facility staff shall verify the resident or his/her surrogate has given informed consent . prior to the initiation of psychotherapeutic drugs .

F 0655 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Few Create and put into place a plan for meeting the resident's most immediate needs within 48 hours of being admitted Based on observation, interview and record review, the facility failed to ensure a baseline care plan (instructions needed to provide effective and person-centered care for the resident developed within 48 hours of admission) for one of 20 sampled residents (Resident 331), when Resident 331's baseline care plan did not include an indwelling urinary catheter (IUC; a medical device that drains and collects urine from the bladder). This failure had the potential to place Resident 331 at risk for unmet care needs. Findings: A review of Resident 331's admission record indicated Resident 331 was admitted to the facility in August of 2024 with diagnoses that included urinary tract infection (when bacteria multiply in the urinary tract [kidneys, ureters, bladder and/or urethra]), sepsis (a severe response to infection which can lead to organ damage) and chronic kidney disease (when kidneys are damaged and can't filter blood properly). During an observation on 9/3/24 at 10:29 a.m., in Resident 331's room, Resident 331 was walking with use of a walker in his room while an IUC drainage bag was hanging from the walker. A review of Resident 331's Order Summary Report, dated 9/4/24, indicated Resident 331 had an active order for an IUC and was started on 8/19/24. A review of Resident 331's care plans, initiated 8/19/24, did not indicate any care plan for an IUC. During an interview on 9/4/24 at 4:11 p.m. with Licensed Nurse 3 (LN 3), LN 3 stated if a resident had an IUC then she would expect the resident's care plan to indicate it, so staff will know the care the resident required. During a concurrent interview and record review on 9/4/24 at 4:24 p.m. with the Director of Staff Development (DSD), Resident 331's care plan was reviewed. The DSD confirmed Resident 331's care plan did not indicate Resident 331 had an IUC. The DSD confirmed Resident 331 was admitted with an IUC and she expected the IUC to be reflected on the resident's baseline care plan. The DSD added, the care plan is used to communicate to staff the care a resident needed and if an IUC was not on the care plan, staff might not know that an IUC existed or what care the resident needed related to it. During an interview on 9/6/24 at 10:43 a.m., with the Assistant Director of Nursing (ADON), ADON stated care plans were important to provide guidance on how to care for the resident and expected a resident's IUC to be on the baseline care plan. A review of facility policy and procedure titled, Care Plans-Baseline, dated March 2022, indicated, .A baseline plan of care to meet the resident's immediate health and safety needs is developed for each resident within forty-eight (48) hours of admission . the baseline care plan includes instructions needed to provide effective, person-centered care of the resident . and must include .but not limited to the following .physician orders .the baseline care plan is used until the staff can conduct the comprehensive assessment and develop a .comprehensive care plan (no later than 21 days after (continued on next page) FORM CMS-2567 (02/99) Previous Versions Obsolete Event ID: Facility ID: 055289 If continuation sheet Page 4 of 27 Printed: 05/15/2026 Form Approved OMB No. 0938-0391 Department of Health & Human Services Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services STATEMENT OF DEFICIENCIES AND PLAN OF CORRECTION (X1) PROVIDER/SUPPLIER/CLIA IDENTIFICATION NUMBER: (X2) MULTIPLE CONSTRUCTION 055289 B.

F 0657 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Develop the complete care plan within 7 days of the comprehensive assessment; and prepared, reviewed, and revised by a team of health professionals. Based on observation, interview and record review the facility failed to revise and implement a communication care plan for one of 20 sampled Residents (Resident 20) who did not speak English. Residents Affected - Few This failure increased Resident 20's potential to receive inadequate and inaccurate care. Findings: A review of Resident 20's admission Record, indicated she was admitted with diagnoses of dementia (the loss of cognitive functioning - thinking, remembering, and reasoning), schizophrenia (a serious mental illness that affects how a person thinks, feels, and behaves), apraxia (a neurological disorder that makes it difficult to perform purposeful movements or tasks, even though the person understands the request and is willing to do it). During an observation on 9/3/24 at 11:24 a.m., Resident 20 was sitting in her wheelchair. The Department was unable to communicate with Resident 20 in English. Resident 20 was observed communicating in a different language and had no communication board in her room. During an interview on 9/3/24 at 11:26 a.m. with Certified Nursing Assistant 4 (CNA 4), CNA 4 stated he was assigned to Resident 20. CNA 4 confirmed Resident 20 spoke a different language and would communicate by gesturing. CNA 4 stated he communicated with Resident 20 by gesturing and she seemed to understand. CNA 4 was not certain what language Resident 20 was speaking. CNA 4 stated he could not find the communication board and if needed Resident 20 had a relative who worked in the dietary department and would be asked to interpret for the staff. During an interview on 9/3/24 at 11:35 a.m. with the Licensed Nurse 4 (LN 4), LN 4 confirmed Resident 20 spoke a different language and would communicate by gestures. LN 4 communicated with Resident 20 using gesturing. LN 4 was aware of a relative that worked in the kitchen who would be the interpreter and was not sure about the language Resident 20 was speaking. LN 4 was not aware if the facility had any translator services available. During an interview on 9/3/24 at 1:30 p.m. with the Director of Staff Development (DSD), DSD stated there were a language communication board and translator services available via phone. The translation services book had listed as Mien and translation services were available 24 hours a day seven days a week via phone. A review of Resident 20's Electronic Health Record (EHR) Resident Detail indicated Resident 20 spoke Laotian. During an interview on 9/4/24 at 2:30 p.m. with the Dietary Aide 2 (DA 2), DA 2 stated she had the same last name as Resident 20 but they were not relatives. DA 2 spoke the same language as Resident 20 and would help out whenever she was at work. DA 2 confirmed she was not the official interpreter for the facility and was only helping out when it came to interpreting. A review of Resident 20's care plan identified on 10/3/20, indicated Resident 20 had a psychosocial well-being problem related to problem solve and had language barrier. Care plan interventions indicated to increase communication between resident/family caregivers about care and living environment.

F 0657 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Few During an interview on 9/5/24 at 3 p.m. with the Director of Nursing (DON), DON stated for residents with language communication problems who could not speak English, the staff if they spoke the resident's language would be asked to act as an interpreter. The use of a translation service interpreter was available 24 hours a day via phone. DON confirmed Resident 20 had a language barrier and some command of English and had a relative that would act as an interpreter. Other helpful tools would be a communication board at the resident's bedside and could be obtained from the activities department. The DON confirmed and stated the interpreter services and the language interpreter services via phone were not part of Resident 20's care plan interventions. The DON also confirmed the care plan was last revised on 10/3/2020 and the interpreter services should have been part of the interventions. A review of facility policy titled, Translation and/or Interpretation of Facility Services, revised 11/2020, indicated: .This facility's language access program will ensure that individuals with limited Engligh proficiency (LEP) shall have meaningful access to informationand services provided by the facility .When encoutering LEP individuals, staff members will conduct the initial language assessment (e.g., I Speak Cards) and notify the staff person in charge of the language access problem.

F 0658 Ensure services provided by the nursing facility meet professional standards of quality. Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm 2. A review of Resident 135's admission Record, indicated Resident 135 was admitted to the facility with diagnoses of pneumonia (lung infection), urinary retention, and the presence of a urine catheter. Residents Affected - Few During an observation on 9/3/24 at 12 p.m. Resident 135 had a foley catheter (a flexible tube that drains urine from the bladder into a bag outside the body) which was connected to a drainage bag. The drainage bag was draining amber colored clear urine and was found hanging on the resident's top bedside rail. The head of the bed was elevated approximately 30 - 35 degrees. The drainage bag was positioned higher than the resident's bladder, this prevented the free flow and drainage of urine from the bladder. There was no privacy bag to conceal the urinary drainage bag from view. Also, the drainage bag's collecting tubing was found to be kinked near the drainage bag. The presence of a kink in the collecting tubing prevented the free flow of urine into the drainage bag. During an interview on 9/3/24 at 1230 p.m., with Certified Nurse Assistant 3 (CNA 3), CNA 3 stated Resident 135's drainage bag must be enclosed in in a privacy bag and confirmed the drainage bag must not be hanging from the top siderail and must be hanging lower than the resident's bladder. CNA 3 also stated the drainage bag must be below the level of the bladder of the resident and confirmed a kinked urine collection tubing. CNA 3 stated the kink in the collecting tubing, prevented the flow of urine into the drainage bag. During a concurrent interview on 9/6/24 at 11:19 a.m. with the Director of Nursing (DON), (ADON) and the Quality Services Consultant (QSC), they all confirmed the expectations were all the residents' foley drainage bags must be positioned lower than the level of the resident's bladders. The urinary drainage bag must be off the floor, and should have no kinks in the collecting drainage tube. All urinary drainage bags must be covered with a privacy bag. Review of the facility policy titled, Catheter Care, Urinary, revised 9/14, indicated: .Check the resident frequently to be sure he or she is not lying on the catheter and to keep the catheter tubing free of kinks. The urinary drainage bag must be held or positioned lower than the bladder at all times to prevent the urine in the tubing and drainage bag from flowing back into the bladder. Based on observation, interview, and record review the facility failed to provide care and services in accordance with acceptable professional standards of quality for two of 20 sampled residents (Resident 331 and Resident 135) when: 1. Resident 331's peripherally inserted central catheter intravenous line (PICC IV: used to deliver medications into a vein over a long period of time) flushes (a procedure that uses a mixture of salt and water to clear an IV line and reduce the risk of infection) were not documented in accordance with professional standards; and, 2. Resident 135's urinary drainage bag was not enclosed in a privacy bag, the urinary drainage bag collection tube was not kept properly positioned and kept free from kinks for optimal drainage. These failures decreased the facility's potential to prevent worsening of the residents' clinical condition.

F 0658 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Few 1. A review of Resident 331's admission record, indicated Resident 331 was admitted to the facility in August of 2024 with diagnoses that included urinary tract infection (UTI: when bacteria multiplies in the urinary organs), sepsis (a severe response to infection which can lead to organ damage), and chronic kidney disease (when kidneys are damaged and can't filter blood properly). A review of Resident 331's Order Summary Report, dated 9/4/24, indicated an order for Resident 331's PICC IV to be flushed every shift. During an interview on 9/4/24 at 2:49 p.m. with Licensed Nurse 5 (LN 5), LN 5 stated the nurse who performed a PICC IV flush was expected to document they did it. LN 5 added, it was not acceptable for a nurse who did not perform the flush to document that another nurse had done it. During an interview on 9/4/24 at 4:11 p.m. with LN 3, LN 3 stated when a nurse gave a medication then that same nurse should have documented giving the medication and it was not acceptable for a nurse who did not give the medication to document it was given. During a concurrent interview and record review on 9/4/24 at 4:24 p.m. with the Director of Staff Development (DSD), Resident 331's August 2024 medication administration record (MAR) and August 2024 progress notes were reviewed. The DSD confirmed the MAR indicated the PICC IV flush scheduled for 10 p.m. on dates 8/20-8/31/24 indicated a code nine on each date. The DSD stated code nine meant there should be a progress note related to the administration. The DSD reviewed Resident 331's progress notes from 8/21/24 through 8/31/24 and confirmed the progress notes indicated a nurse documented either a different nurse had done the flush or the other nurse would do the flush. The DSD stated she expected the nurse who administered a medication or flush to document they gave it on the resident's MAR. The DSD confirmed it was not acceptable for one staff member to document that another staff member gave a medication or flush. During a concurrent interview and record review on 9/6/24 at 10:43 a.m. with the Assistant Director of Nursing (ADON), Resident 331's August 2024 MAR and August 2024 progress notes were reviewed. The ADON confirmed from 8/20/24-8/31/24 the 10 p.m. PICC IV flush was documented code nine and corresponding notes indicated a nurse had documented that another nurse had either administered the PICC IV flush or would administer the PICC IV flush. The ADON acknowledged the documentation related to the flushes were not aligned with facility expectations, and the nurse who administered a medication or flushed must document they did it. The ADON confirmed the documentation did not align with professional standards expected of nurses. A review of facility's policy and procedures (P&P) titled, administering medications, dated April 2019, indicated, . medications are administered in a safe and timely manner, and as prescribed . Only persons licensed or permitted by this state to prepare, administer and document the administration of medications may do so medications are administered in accordance with prescriber orders . the individual administering the medication initials the resident's MAR on the appropriate line after given each medication .

Based on observation, interview and record review the facility failed to accurately check and test sanitizing solutions in the kitchen for a census of 81, when: Residents Affected - Some 1. The dishwasher sanitizing solution was not accurately checked for effectiveness; and, 2. The Quatenary Ammonium Compound (QAC; a type of chemical that is used to kill bacteria, viruses, and mold) was not tested at the right temperature and concentration. These failures had the potential to expose residents to foodborne illnesses from improperly sanitized eating utensils served with the residents' meals. Findings: 1. During a concurrent observation and interview with the Registered Dietitian (RD) and the Dietary Aide 1 (DA 1) on 9/4/24 at 1:34 p.m. in the kitchen, the dishwashing activity was observed. DA 1 stated she was doing the dishwashing and the dishwashing machine was a low temperature dishwasher. DA 1 also stated she did not know what should the low temperature dishwashing machine's minimum operational temperature be. The temperature gauge of the machine while operating was observed and registered a temperature of 110 degrees Fahrenheit (a unit of temperature measurement). DA 1 demonstrated how the sanitizing solution was checked to ensure it was at an effective concentration level, stated the sanitizing solution used was Chlorine, took a test strip and placed it into the liquid collected at the bottom of the machine. DA1 confirmed the Chlorine testing indicated a reading of 100 parts per million (ppm; described concentrations of chemicals dissolved in a solvent, typically water) after she compared it with the testing bottle's colored bars.The test strips container's color bars were observed to be faded and hard to read. The test strips container expiration date was also faded and difficult to visualize. DA 1 confirmed that the test strips container's color bars were faded and the expiration date was not visible and stated she compared the color to as close as she could to the faded color bars. RD confirmed the color bars were faded and the expiration date of the test strip container was also faded and difficult to read and stated the accuracy of the Chlorine test would be hard to visually verify the accuracy of the readings. 2. During a concurrent observation and interview with DA 1 on 9/4/24 at 1:34 p.m. in the kitchen, DA 1 demonstrated how to wash dishes with a three compartment sink. DA 1 stated QAC was used for the sanitation of dishes and the disinfection of the kitchen surfaces with a red bucket container. DA 1 conducted testing with a test strip after mixing a QAC solution and water form a QAC mixing station. DA 1 dipped the QAC test strip for 10 seconds and read the result, which was 400 ppm. The QAC testing strip instructions from the manufacturer were to dip the chemical strip into the formula at a temperature of 65 to 75. DA 1 measured the temperature in the QAC red bucket using the kitchen's digital thermometer which indicated 63 degrees Fahrenheit. DA 1 confirmed the solution was tested in cold water and was below the manufacturer's recommendation for testing. Duirng an interview on 9/4/24 at 2 p.m. with the RD, RD stated the QAC chemical test strip per manufacturer's recommendation must be tested at a minimum temperature of 65 degrees Fahrenheit. The temperature reading was verified with the RD and was below the manufacturer's recommendation. RD confirmed the QAC testing result was at 400 ppm and stated the manufacturer's recommendation must be followed to ensure the accuracy of the readings.

Therefore, a test kit is necessary to accurately determine the concentration of the chemical sanitizer solution. The FDA Food Code further explained in section 4-703.11 on Hot Water and Chemical Sanitation that Efficacious sanitization depends on warewashing being conducted within certain parameters. Time is a parameter applicable to both chemical and hot water sanitization. The time hot water or chemicals contact utensils or food-contact surfaces must be sufficient to destroy pathogens that may remain on surfaces after cleaning. Other parameters, such as rinse pressure, temperature, and chemical concentration are used in combination with time to achieve sanitization.
