F 0557 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Few Honor the resident's right to be treated with respect and dignity and to retain and use personal possessions. Based on observation, interview, and record review, the facility failed to ensure one of two sampled residents (Resident 1) was treated with respect and dignity when the Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA) 1 repeatedly told Resident 1 to wait for a brief change. This failure had the potential to negatively impact Resident 1's sense of self-worth, self-esteem, and overall quality of life. Findings: During a review of Resident 1's admission Record (AR), dated 11/27/24, the AR indicated, Resident 1 was admitted with diagnoses including encephalopathy (disturbance of brain function), Arthritis (swelling and tenderness of one or more joints), and muscle weakness. During a review of Resident 1's, MDS (Minimum Data Sheet - a federally mandated process of clinical assessment for nursing home patients) Assessment, dated 11/22/24, the MDS indicated, Section C - Brief Interview of Mental Status (BIMS) assessment indicated, Resident 1 had a BIMS Score of 10 (The BIMS assessment uses a points system that ranges from 0 to 15 points: 0 to 7 points suggests severe cognitive impairment, 8 to 12 points suggests moderate cognitive impairment, 13 to 15 points suggests that cognition is intact.) During a record review of Resident 1's MDS record dated 11/22/24, Resident 1's assessment for Toileting, indicated, Resident 1 is dependent (helper does all the effort to complete the activity). During an interview on 12/10/24 at 2 p.m. with Resident 1, Resident 1 verbalized had turned on her call light because assistance was needed for a brief change, a tall female staff member answered the call light, and told Resident 1 to wait for assigned CNA, [name of staff] and then turned off the call light. Resident 1 waited for a while and then turned on the call light again. The same staff came to Resident 1's room and again said to wait for [name of staff] and turned off the call light again. During an interview on 12/10/24 at 5 p.m. with CNA 1, CNA 1 verbalized that at the beginning of night shift, Resident 1 had called around 10:30 p.m. for a brief change. CNA 1 told Resident 1 to wait for the assigned CNA. Approximately 30 minutes later, she answered Resident 1's call light the second time and again told Resident 1 to wait for the assigned CNA. Then, 20 minutes later, Resident 1's CNA arrived and changed the brief. CNA 1 further stated that it is everyone's responsibility to answer residents call lights and provide the care residents need. CNA 1 stated that they were not aware Resident 1's CNA was going to be late.
