Provide safe and appropriate respiratory care for a resident when needed.
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 respiratory care services for two (2) of
two sampled residents (Resident 1 and 2) in accordance with the facility's policy and procedure by failing to
ensure: 1. Resident 1 received oxygen on 11/18/2025 as ordered via nasal cannula (NC, device used to
deliver supplemental oxygen placed directly on a resident's nostril). 2. Resident 2's oxygen saturation (level
of oxygen found in a person's blood, normal reference= 95-100 %) which was below 92% on 10/4/2025,
10/11/2025 and 10/15/2025 was reported to the physician per physician's order.These deficient practices
have the potential to place Resident 1 and 2 at risk for shortness of breath and/or hypoxia (low levels of
oxygen in the body tissues) which could lead to irreversible health damages and/or death.Findings:1.
During a review of Resident 1's admission Record, the admission record indicated Resident 1 was admitted
to the facility on [DATE]. Resident 1's diagnoses included acute and chronic respiratory failure with
hypercapnia (occurs when a resident with a pre-existing, long-term condition that causes high carbon
dioxide levels experiences a sudden, acute worsening of the condition), acute respiratory failure (occurs
when the resident do not have enough oxygen in the blood) with hypoxia, asthma (a condition in which the
resident's airways narrow and swell and may produce extra mucus), and dementia (a progressive state of
decline in mental abilities) During a review of Resident 1's Minimum Data Set (MDS, resident assessment
tool), dated 9/11/2025, the MDS indicated Resident 1 had intact cognitive skills (mental action or process of
acquiring knowledge and understanding) for daily decision making. The MDS indicated Resident 1 needed
substantial/ maximal assistance (helper does more than half the effort. helper lifts, holds trunk or limbs, and
provides more than half the effort) in toileting hygiene, shower/ bathe self, upper and lower body dressing,
putting on/ taking off footwear, roll left and right, sit to lying, lying to sitting on the side of the bed and chair/
bed-to-chair transfer. During a record review of Resident 1's Order Summary, dated 3/10/2025, the order
summary indicated: Oxygen at three (3) liters per minute (lpm, unit of measurement) via nasal cannula
continuously. Diagnosis: Respiratory Failure every shift. Monitor Oxygen Saturation every shift. Notify MD
(physician) if Oxygen Saturation was less than 90%. During a record review of Resident 1's undated care
plan, the care plan indicated Resident 1 has Oxygen Therapy related to Respiratory illness, acute and
chronic respiratory failure with hypercapnia (occurs when a patient with a pre-existing, long-term condition
that causes high carbon dioxide levels experiences a sudden, acute worsening of the condition). The care
plan indicated Resident 1 has oxygen via nasal prongs/mask at 3lpm continuously. During a concurrent
observation and interview on 11/18/2025 at 9:37AM inside Resident 1's room, Resident 1 was sleeping,
and observed not wearing a nasal cannula. The oxygen tubing with the cannula was placed on top of
Resident 1's chest. The oxygen concentrator was running and was set up at 2.5 lpm. Resident 1 observed
to have woken up and stated her oxygen cannula came off this morning and added that she was feeling
weak and tired. During a concurrent observation and interview on 11/18/2025

Residents Affected - Some
at 9:28 AM with the Director of Nursing (DON) inside Resident 1's room, the DON saw Resident 1's oxygen
tubing with the cannula on top of resident's chest. The DON asked Resident 1 if why was her nasal cannula
on top of her chest. Resident 1 stated it came off this morning. During an observation and interview on
11/18/2025 at 11:30 AM, inside Resident 1's room, Resident 1 was observed not wearing her oxygen
cannula, which was resting on the resident's chest. The oxygen concentrator was observed to be on and
set at 2.5 lpm.During a concurrent observation and interview on 11/18/2025 at 11:31 AM inside Resident
1's room, the DON observed and confirmed Resident 1's oxygen tubing with the cannula was resting on top
of Resident 1's chest. The DON stated Resident 1's oxygen concentrator was set up at 2.5 lpm which was
the incorrect setting. The DON stated Resident 1 can experience low oxygen saturation. The DON added
Resident 1 should be administered oxygen continuously per order. During a concurrent observation and
interview on 11/18/2025 at 11:44 AM with Licensed Vocational Nurse 1 (LVN 1) inside Resident 1's room,
LVN 1 stated Resident 1's oxygen concentrator was set up at 2.5 lpm which was the incorrect setting. LVN1
stated, The oxygen concentrator should be at 3 lpm. The resident will not get enough oxygen, and her
oxygen saturation can go lower than 90%. During a record review of facility's Policy and Procedure (P&P)
titled, Oxygen Administration, revised 10/2010, the P&P indicated,1. Review the physician's orders or
facility protocol for oxygen administration.13.Observe the resident upon setup and periodically thereafter to
be sure oxygen is being tolerated.After completing the oxygen setup or adjustment, the following
information should be recorded in the resident's medical record:3. The rate of oxygen flow, route, and
rationale.4. The frequency and duration of the treatment. 2. During a review of Resident 2's admission
Record, the admission record indicated Resident 2 was admitted to the facility on [DATE] Resident 2's
diagnoses included chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD, a chronic lung disease causing difficulty
in breathing), iron deficiency anemia (which occurs when your body does not have enough iron {helps
make red blood cells [provide oxygen to body tissue]}) and dementia. During a review of Resident 2's MDS,
dated [DATE], the MDS indicated Resident 2 has modified independence (some difficulty in new situations
only) cognitive skills for daily decision making. The MDS indicated Resident 2 was dependent (helper does
all of the effort, resident does none of the effort to complete the activity) in shower/ bathe self, lower body
dressing, putting on/ taking off footwear, and personal hygiene. During a record review of Resident 2's
Order Summary, dated 3/10/2025, the Order Summary indicated: Oxygen at 2 lpm via nasal cannula
continuously. Diagnosis: Respiratory Failure every shift. Monitor Oxygen Saturation every shift. Notify MD if
Oxygen Saturation was less than 92%. During a review of Resident 2's Medication Administration Record
(MAR) dated 10/1/2025 to 10/31/2025 indicated Resident 2's oxygen saturation level indicated, On
10/4/2025, during 7-3 shift, Resident 2's oxygen saturation was 91%. On 10/11/2025, during 7-3 shift,
Resident 2's oxygen saturation was 91%. On 10/15/2025, during 3-11 shift, Resident 2's oxygen saturation
was 91%. During a concurrent interview and record review on 11/18/2025 at 12:53 PM with the DON,
Resident 2's Medication Administration Record (MAR) from 10/1/2025 to 10/31/2025 was reviewed. The
DON stated Resident 2's oxygen saturation level was below 92% on 10/4/2025, 10/11/2025 and
10/15/2025. During a concurrent interview and record review on 11/18/2025 at 12:55 PM with DON,
Resident 2's Situation, Background, Assessment, Recommendation (SBAR, is a verbal or written
communication tool that helps provide essential, concise information, usually during crucial situation) for
the month of 10/2025 was reviewed. The DON stated there was no documentation on 10/4/2025,
10/11/2025 and 10/15/2025 that the MD was notified regarding Resident 2's oxygen saturation below 92%.
During a concurrent interview and record review on 11/18/2025 at 12:59 PM with the DON, Nurses
Progress Notes for 10/1/2025 to 10/31/2025 were reviewed. The DON stated there was no licensed nurse's

that the MD was notified of Resident 2's oxygen saturation being below 92%. The DON stated if there was
no documentation in the progress notes, that means the licensed staff did not call the MD about the
resident's oxygen saturation below 92%. The DON stated the licensed nurses should have notified the MD
anytime Resident 2's oxygen saturation is below 92%. During an interview on 11/18/2025 at 12:59 PM with
the DON, the DON stated it was important to monitor vital signs (measure the basic functions of your body
that includes your body temperature, blood pressure, pulse and respiratory [breathing] rate) and oxygen
saturation to make sure that residents who were receiving oxygen were comfortable, were receiving
enough oxygen, and their oxygen saturation were within normal levels. During a record review of facility's
P&P titled, Oxygen Administration, revised 10/2010, the P&P indicated, after completing the oxygen setup
or adjustment, the following information should be recorded in the resident's medical record:6. All
assessment data obtained before, during, and after the procedure.The P&P also indicated in Reporting. 2.
