F 0582 Give residents notice of Medicaid/Medicare coverage and potential liability for services not covered. Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Based on interview and record review, the facility failed to provide an explanation for not providing a SNF ABN (Skilled Nursing Facility Advanced Beneficiary Notice of Non-coverage) and a NOMNC (Notice of Medicare Non-Coverage), to one of three residents (Resident 220), prior to discharge from the facility. This failure had the potential to prevent the resident from making an informed decision about their discharge from the facility. Residents Affected - Few Findings: During an interview on 6/18/24 at 10 AM, the Administrator was given three SNF (Skilled Nursing Facility) Beneficiary Notification Review Forms (Form CMS-20052). Each form contained the name of a resident who had been discharged from the facility. Per Form CMS-20052, The intent of the checklist is to provide the surveyor with all copies of the forms issued to the resident, and if the notification was not required, an explanation of why the form was not issued. During a record review on 6/19/24 at 3:24 PM, the SNF Beneficiary Protection Notification Review for two of three Residents was completed correctly. The SNF Beneficiary Protection Notification Review for Resident 220 was not filled in. During an interview and record review on 6/20/24 at 11 AM, the Regional Director of Operations confirmed the Beneficiary Protection Notification Review for Resident 220 had not been completed correctly. The Regional Director of Operations further stated she would complete the Beneficiary Notification Review for Resident 220. During an interview and record review on 6/21/24 at 9:15 AM, the Regional Director of Operations verified the SNF Beneficiary Protection Notification Review for Resident 220 included the Medicare Part A skilled services episode start date and the last covered day of Part A services. The Regional Director of Operations also verified the SNF Beneficiary Protection Notification Review indicated the SNF ABN and the NOMNC were not acknowledged by the beneficiary or the beneficiary's representative. The Regional Director of Operations stated the facility did not have any documentation to explain why the SNF ABN and the NOMNC were not provided to Resident 220. 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. (See instructions.) Except for nursing homes, the findings stated above are disclosable 90 days following the date of survey whether or not a plan of correction is provided. For nursing homes, the above findings and plans of correction are disclosable 14 days following the date these documents are made available to the facility.

F 0684 Provide appropriate treatment and care according to orders, resident’s preferences and goals. Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Based on observation, interviews and record reviews, the facility failed to ensure that three of eight sampled residents, Resident 2, 38, and 51, received care and services that met their physical, mental, and emotional needs, and according to the facility's policy and procedure on answering call lights and repositioning, when these residents had to wait for a long time before they were assisted after pushing their call light buttons to request for assistance from their aides. These failures had the potential to result in skin breakdown, when the residents were left soiled in urine or feces (the material in a bowel movement), or when residents were left in a certain position for a significant amount of time and could also affect their emotional well-being. Residents Affected - Few Findings: A review of Resident 2's MDS (Minimum Data Set- is part of the federally-mandated process for clinical assessment of all residents in Medicare and Medicaid certified nursing homes) Section C- Cognitive (Cognitive means relating to the mental process involved in knowing, learning, and understanding things) Patterns, dated 2/22/24, indicated Resident 2 had a BIMS (Brief Interview for Mental Status) score of 14, (BIMS scores: 0-7= severe cognitive impairment; 8-12= moderate cognitive impairment; 13-15= cognition is intact). During an interview on 6/21/24, at 11:13 a.m., with Resident 2, she stated she waited as long as one hour after she pushed her call button on. She stated she pushed her call light button to be repositioned in bed. She stated she had a wall clock hanging on the wall to know how long it was taking for staff to respond to her call light. She stated she would scream for help, so the staff would respond to her call light. A review of Resident 38's MDS Section C, dated 5/11/24, indicated, Resident 38 had a BIMS score of 15, no cognitive impairment. During a concurrent observation and interview on 6/21/24, at 1:41 p.m., with Resident 38, inside her room, she stated she would wait for about ten minutes to about 45 minutes before a CNA (Certified Nursing Assistant) would come and assist her with care. She stated she usually called for assistance to use her BSC (bedside commode) for a bowel movement. She stated the longest she had to wait was about an hour. She stated she knew it was about an hour because she had a wall clock hanging on the wall. This was observed by the Surveyor, the wall clock was working and was showing the right time of the day. When the resident was asked if she had an accident while waiting for assistance to use the BSC for a bowel movement, she stated she did not, but sometimes she stated she had already lost the urgency to have a bowel movement. A review of Resident 51's MDS Section C, dated 4/19/24, indicated, Resident 51 had a BIMS score of 15, no cognitive impairment. During an interview on 6/21/24, at 11:32 a.m., Resident 51 stated one time during the NOC (night) shift, she called for assistance to have incontinence care, and she waited for around 45 minutes to an hour before somebody come to help her. She stated she knew how long she was waiting because she had wall clock hanging on the wall in front of her. During an interview with the facility's Director of Nursing (DON) on 6/21/24, at 12:23 p.m., she stated it was her expectation that residents' call lights were responded to as promptly as possible.

F 0697 Provide safe, appropriate pain management for a resident who requires such services. Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Based on interviews and record reviews, the facility failed to ensure the nurses were following the Physician's Order for pain medication for one out of two sampled residents (Resident 37), when the nurses administered a pain medication that was not appropriate for the pain level Resident 37 was reporting. This failure could result in unrelieved pain, worsened pain, impaired mobility, and residents feeling upset, angry and frustrated. Residents Affected - Some Findings: A review of Resident 37's face sheet (demographics) indicated an admission date of 3/21/24. Her diagnoses include Chronic Pain Syndrome (CPS, a long-standing pain that persists beyond the usual recovery period or occurs along with a chronic health condition), Essential Hypertension (HTN, high blood pressure) and right Tibial fracture (a break in the shinbone).

A review of Resident 37's Physician Order Summary (POS, doctor's order including medications, treatments, laboratory tests) for 6/2024, indicated staff to monitor and assess level of pain using the following pain scale (PS, a way to rate or measure your pain): 0=no pain, 1 to 3=mild pain, 4 to 6=moderate pain and 7 to 10=severe pain, with a start date of 3/12/24, and an order for Acetaminophen 325 milligram (mg, a unit of weight) two tablets every six hours as needed for mild pain (1-3 PL), with a start date of 3/12/24. A review of Resident 37's Electronic Medication Administration record (EMAR, used to record drugs administered to patients in a healthcare facility) for 5/2024, indicated Resident 37 had an order for Hydrocodone-Acetaminophen 10-325 milligram (mg, a unit of weight) one tablet every 12 hours as needed for moderate pain, with a start date of 5/24/24. A review of Resident 37's EMAR for 5/2024, indicated she received Hydrocodone Acetaminophen 10-325 mg one tablet every 12 hours as needed for moderate pain (PS 4 to 6 out of 10), when she was reporting severe pain (PS 7 to 10) on these dates: 5/25/24, while her reported PS was 7 out of 10, on 5/27/24, while her reported PS was 7 out of 10, on 5/30/24, while her PS was 8 out of 10, and on 5/31/24, while her reported PS was 7 out of 10. A review of Resident 37's EMAR for 5/2024, indicated she received Acetaminophen 325 mg two tablets every six hours as needed for mild pain (PS of 1 to 3), even though she was reporting moderate pain (PS 4 to 6 out of 10). Resident 37 received this medication on 5/3/24, twice while reporting a PS of 5 out of 10, and 4 of 10, on 5/18/24, while reporting a PS of 5 out of 10, on 5/22/24, with a PS 6 out of 10, on 5/23/24, with a PS 5 out of 10, on 5/24/24, with a PS of 6 out of 10, on 5/31/24, with a PS of 4 out of 10.
