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 **NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on interview, medical record review, and facility P&P review, the facility failed to ensure one of six final sampled residents (Resident 7) reviewed for psychotropic use was informed of the indication for the use of psychotropic medications (medication affecting brain activities associated with mental processes and behavior). Residents Affected - Few * The facility failed to ensure Resident 7's informed consent was obtained when the indication for the use of risperidone (an antipsychotic medication used for mental illness that causes disturbed or unusual thinking) was changed to racing thought. This failure had the potential for Resident 7 to not be informed of the medication and potential effects of risperidone. Findings: Review of the facility's P&P titled Psychotropic Medication Use dated 7/2023 showed the residents, families, and/or representatives are involved in the medication management process. Residents (and/or representatives) have the right to decline treatment with psychotropic medications. Medical record review for Resident 7 was initiated on 9/19/24. Resident 7 was admitted to the facility on [DATE]. Review of Resident 7's H&P examination dated 6/17/24, showed the resident had the capacity to understand and make decisions. Review of Resident 7's Facility Verification of Informed Consent form dated 6/17/24 , showed risperidone 0.5 mg at bedtime for schizoaffective disorder manifested by injury to self (suicidal ideation) signed by the physician on 6/19/24. Review of Resident 7's Order Summary Report dated 9/19/24, showed an order dated 7/26/24, for risperidone 0.5 mg tablet by mouth at bedtime for schizoaffective disorder manifested by racing thoughts. Review of Resident 7's MAR for September 2024 showed Resident 7 had received risperidone 0.5 mg tablet by mouth at bedtime since 7/11/24. On 9/19/24 at 1444 hours, an interview and concurrent medical record review was conducted with LVN 2. LVN 2 verified the Facility Verification of Informed Consent form showed risperidone 0.5 mg at bedtime for schizoaffective disorder manifested by injury to self . LVN 2 stated the informed consent should have been obtained to indicate the use of risperidone for the manifestation of racing (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 0554 Allow residents to self-administer drugs if determined clinically appropriate. Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm **NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on observation, interview, medical record review, and facility P&P review, the facility failed to assess one of 21 final sampled residents (Resident 74) for their self-administration of the medications. This failure had the potential to negatively impact the residents' physiological well-being and could administer the medications inaccurately. Residents Affected - Few Findings: Review of the facility's P&P titled Self-Administration of Medications revised February 2021 showed the residents have the right to self-administer medications if the interdisciplinary team has determined that it is clinically appropriate and safe for the resident to do so. The IDT assesses each resident's cognitive and physical abilities to determine whether self-administering medications is safe and clinically appropriate for the resident. Further review of the policy showed resident who are identified as being able to self-administer the medication are asked whether they wish to do so. The policy also showed any medications found at the bedside that are not authorized for self-administration are turned over to the nurse in charge for return to the family or responsible party. On 9/17/24 at 0904 hours, a concurrent observation and interview was conducted with Resident 74. Resident 74 was observed sitting on the side of the bed, the tetrahydrozoline (medication that can relieve minor eye irritation and redness) eye drop medication was observed on the table located at the left side of the bed. Resident 74 stated she had been self-administering the eye drops. Medical record review for Resident 74 was initiated on 9/17/24. Resident 74 was admitted to the facility on [DATE]. Review of Resident 74's H&P examination dated 4/19/24, showed Resident 74 had no capacity to understand and make medical decisions. Review of Resident 74's Admission/readmission Data Tool v2 dated 4/18/24, under the self administration of medication evaluation section, showed Resident 74 did not want to self-administer the medications. Furthermore, there was no documented evidence of a physician's order for self-administration of the tetrahydrozoline eye drop and to be stored at the resident's bedside. On 9/17/24 at 0907 hours, an observation, interview, and concurrent medical record review for Resident 74 was conducted with LVN 6. LVN 6 verified Resident 74 had the tetrahydrozoline eye drop at the bedside and verified Resident 74 had no physician's order for the eye drop medication. LVN 6 stated Resident 74 should not have the eye drop medication at the bedside. On 9/19/24 at 1237 hours, an interview with the DON was conducted. The DON was informed and acknowledged the above findings.

Residents Affected - Few * The facility failed to ensure Residents 4 and 72's call lights were kept within the residents' reach. This failure had the potential to negatively impact the residents' psychosocial well-being or result in a delay to provide care and services to the residents. Findings: Review of the facility's P&P titled Answering the Call Light revised 9/2022, showed the purpose of this procedure is to ensure timely responses to the resident's requests and needs. Ensure that the call light is accessible to the resident when in bed, from the toilet, from the shower or bathing facility and from the floor. 1. Medical Record review for Resident 4 was initiated on 9/19/24. Resident 4 was admitted to the facility on [DATE], and readmitted on [DATE]. Review of Resident 4's MDS Quarterly assessment dated [DATE], Section B, showed the resident could make self-understood and can understand others. Section GG for functional abilities and goals showed Resident 4 had impairment in mobility of both upper extremities and in one of the lower extremities. Review of Resident 4's H&P examination dated 9/5/24, showed Resident 4 had the capacity to understand and make decisions. On 9/20/24 at 0814 hours, Resident 4 was observed in bed with the breakfast tray on the overbed table in front of the resident. Resident 4 requested for assistance from the surveyor as she could not reach the call light which was observed to be placed by her left knee on the bed. Resident 4 wanted to reach her juice in the meal tray that was placed on the right upper side of the meal tray. A facility staff was called to assist the resident.

The DON stated the weekly weight orders should be communicated to the RNA, so they would know to weigh the residents weekly. The DON reviewed Resident 4's order for weekly weights and weight entries and verified weekly weights were not completed as ordered. The DON stated the resident should have been weighed withing 24 hours of the order date, then every seven days from that first weekly weight. The DON stated the order was discontinued on 9/1/24, when the resident was transferred to the acute care hospital and was reordered when they returned on 9/4/24. The DON stated the resident missed two weekly weights. Based on interview, medical record review, and facility P&P review, the facility failed to ensure three of six final sampled residents reviewed for weight loss (Residents 4, 13, and 35) received the appropriate services needed to maintain acceptable parameters of nutritional status. * The facility failed to implement interventions to maintain Resident 13's nutritional status when the resident experienced severe weight loss. The facility failed to notify Resident 13's physician and responsible party in timely manner and failed to ensure the IDT analyzed and implemented the necessary interventions to address Resident 13's severe weight loss. * Residents 4 and 35's weekly weights were not completed as ordered by the physicians. These failures had the potential to result in the lack of implementation, monitoring, and evaluation of the effectiveness of nutritional interventions and related outcomes and increase the potential for further weight loss and/or nutritional decline. Findings: 1. Review of the facility's P&P titled Weight Assessment and Intervention dated May 2023 showed the resident weights are monitored for undesirable or unintended weight loss or gain. The P&P showed the suggested parameters: a). 1 months- 5% weight loss is significant, greater than 5% is severe; b). 3 month- 7.5% weight loss is significant; greater than 7.5% is severe; and, c). 6 months- 10% weight loss is significant; greater than 10% is severe.

RN 2 verified Resident 27's administration record for September 2024 showed the resident was administered their routine oxygen at 2-3 liters per minute and did not receive PRN oxygen up to 10 liters per minute. Based on observation, interview, medical record review, and facility P&P review, the facility failed to provide the necessary respiratory care for five of six final sampled resident (Residents 2, 4, 27, 72, and 442) and one nonsampled resident (Resident 12) reviewed for respiratory care and services. * The facility failed to ensure the physician's order for oxygen therapy was followed for Resident 442. In addition, the facility failed to clarify the physician's order when the order did not show how high the oxygen could be titrated for Resident 442. * Resident 12's oxygen concentrator was observed in the hallway, and the door was closed with compressing oxygen tubing. This failure posed the risk of Resident 12 not receiving her oxygen. * Resident 27 was not administered continuous oxygen as ordered by the physician. *The facility failed to ensure Resident 72's oxygen titration order included the parameter for the oxygen to be titrate up to. * The facility failed to ensure there was a physician's order for the administration of oxygen for Resident 2. In addition, the facility failed to ensure the licensed nurse documented Resident 2's change of condition when the resident had low oxygen saturation level at 89%. * Resident 4's suction machine and two suction machine canisters were observed on the floor. These failures had the potential to negatively affect the residents' medical conditions.
