F 0625 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Few Notify the resident or the resident’s representative in writing how long the nursing home will hold the resident’s bed in cases of transfer to a hospital or therapeutic leave. **NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on interview and record review, the facility failed to ensure a written notice of bed-hold policy (reserving a resident's bed while resident is out of the facility for therapeutic leave or hospitalization) was provided to the resident/and or resident representative, for one of one resident reviewed (Resident 25) when Resident 25 was transferred to the acute hospital. This failure had the potential for the resident or resident representative not to be informed of their right to hold the bed while out of the facility and the right to be readmitted back to the facility. Findings: On January 12, 2024, Resident 25's record was reviewed. Resident 25 was admitted to the facility on [DATE], with diagnoses which included respiratory failure (a serious condition that makes it difficult to breathe on your own). A review of the facility document titled, Interact, dated January 4, 2024, indicated Resident 25 was transferred to the acute hospital for a change of condition. There was no documented evidence Resident 25 and/or resident representative was provided a written notice of the facility's bed hold policy at the time of transfer to the acute hospital. On January 11, 2024, at 11:06 a.m., a concurrent interview and record review was conducted with Registered Nurse (RN) 3. She stated Resident 25's SNF/NF (Skilled Nursing Facility/Nursing Facility) to Hospital Transfer Form, dated January 4, 2024, indicated Resident 25 was transferred to (name of hospital) on January 4, 2024 at 4:57 p.m. due to abnormal hemoglobin or hematocrit (low). RN 3 stated there was no documentation the facility's bed hold notice was provided to Resident 25's representative when she was transferred tot he acute hospital. She stated the bed hold notification should have been provided to Resident 25's representative and documented in the progress notes upon transfer to the acute hospital. On January 11, 2024, at 4:09 p.m., an interview was conducted with the Director of Nursing (DON). The DON stated the written notice of bed hold should have been provided upon transfer to Resident 25's representative. The facility's policy and procedure titled, Bed Holds, revised June 2008, was reviewed. The policy indicated, .The resident and/or legal representative will be given written notice of the facility's (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 0693 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Few Ensure that feeding tubes are not used unless there is a medical reason and the resident agrees; and provide appropriate care for a resident with a feeding tube. **NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on observation, interview, and record review, the facility failed to ensure an enteral feeding (a tube is inserted through the abdominal wall, through which liquid nutrition is administered) was provided within the safe timeframe to prevent bacterial growth in accordance with the enteral feeding manufacturer's recommendations, for one of 34 residents (Resident 30). This failure had the potential to result in food borne illness for Resident 30. Findings: On January 10, 2024, at 1:18 p.m., a concurrent observation and interview with Resident 30 was conducted. One bag of enteral tube feeding formula (Fibersource HN - type of formula) with a label indicating Resident 30's name and dated January 6, 2024, at 7 p.m., were observed hanging on the bedside pole in the resident's room. Resident 30's enteral feeding bag was observed to have approximately 400 milliliters (ml - unit of measurement) of enteral solution. In a concurrent interview with Resident 30, she stated she received enteral feeding on January 9, 2024, at 7 p.m., and was turned off on January 10, 2024, at around 5 a.m. On January 10, 2024, at 3:14 p.m., a concurrent interview and record review with Licensed Vocational Nurse (LVN) 1 was conducted. She stated there was an enteral feeding bag of Fibersource HN hanging on the pole for Resident 30 when she started her shift this morning. During a concurrent record review with LVN 1, she stated Resident 30 had an order for enteral feeding of Fibersource HN to start at 7 p.m. and off at 5 a.m. daily. She further stated the enteral feeding bag can be used for several days after it was initially started. On January 10, 2024, Resident 30's record was reviewed. Resident 30 was admitted to the facility on [DATE], with diagnoses which included gastrostomy (surgical procedure used to insert a tube through the abdomen and into the stomach). A review of Resident 30's physician's order, dated December 29, 2023, indicated, .Enteral Feed Order every shift Nocturnal Enteral feeding: Formula: Fibersource HN 1.2 .Rate: 20ml (milliliters) x (times) 10 (ten) hours .START AT 7 PM (p.m.) AND OFF AT 5 AM (a.m.) . A review Resident 30's Medication Administration Record (MAR), from January 6 through 10, of 2024, indicated Resident 30 received enteral feeding daily (7 p.m. to 5 a.m.). On January 10, 2024, at 3:20 p.m., an interview with the Director of Nursing (DON) was conducted. He stated all enteral feeding can be used up to forty-eight hours (48 hours), after it was initially started, per manufacturer's guidelines. The DON stated Resident 30's enteral feeding of Fibersource HN that was dated January 6, 2024, at 7 p.m. and should have been discarded on January 8, 2024, at 5 a.m. The DON further stated the enteral feeding of Fiber Source HN was not changed within the required timeline for safe administration (forty-eight hours after it was started).

F 0700 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Some Try different approaches before using a bed rail. If a bed rail is needed, the facility must (1) assess a resident for safety risk; (2) review these risks and benefits with the resident/representative; (3) get informed consent; and (4) Correctly install and maintain the bed rail. **NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on observation, interview, and record review, the facility failed to ensure: 1. A risk for entrapment (an event in which a resident is caught, trapped, or entangled in the space in or about the bed rail) assessment and least restrictive alternatives were conducted prior to use of bed rails, for sixteen of sixteen residents reviewed for bed rails (Residents 1, 2, 3, 4, 9, 13, 16, 22, 27, 28, 30, 31, 32, 35, 37, and 40). In addition, the risk for entrapment assessment did not indicate the resident's size and weight in relation to the dimensions of the bed being used for the resident according to the facility's policy and procedure. 2. The risk for entrapment assessments conducted were not specific to the bed rails being used by the residents, for six of sixteen residents reviewed for bed rails (Residents 2, 3, 16, 28, 37, and 40); and 3. An appropriate indication for the use of bed rails, for three of sixteen residents reviewed for bed rails (Residents 1, 2, and 9). These failures had the potential for residents to be at risk for injuries and entrapment. Findings: 1. On January 9, 2024, at 12:20 p.m., Resident 27 was observed lying in bed with bilateral (both) half-length bed rails raised. On January 11, 2024, Resident 27's record was reviewed. Resident 27 was admitted to the facility on [DATE], with diagnoses which included seizures (sudden uncontrolled electrical activity in the brain). A review of Resident 27's document titled, Bed Rails, dated March 3, 2023, indicated the use of pillows was used as alternative prior to the use of bed rails, and was ineffective. The document did not indicate the reason why the use of pillows was ineffective. There was no documented evidence other alternatives were used prior to the use of bed rails. A review of Resident 27's physician's order, dated November 22, 2023, indicated bilateral padded half-length side rails (bed rails) for seizure precaution. The facility documented titled, Bed System Measurement Device Test Results Worksheet (entrapment risk assessment), dated August 14, 2023, indicated, Bed Assessment .PASS . for the use of bilateral half bed rails. The document indicated the entrapment risk assessment was conducted after the bed rail assessment on March 3, 2023 (five months after initiation of use of bed rails) and prior to the physician's order, dated November 22, 2023 (more than three months prior to the physician's order). In addition, the entrapment risk assessment did not indicate Resident 27's size and weight in relation to the dimension of the bed being used. 2.
