**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
observation, interview and record review, the facility failed to ensure residents were treated with dignity and
respect for two of three sampled residents (Residents 69 and 191) when Residents 69 and Resident 191's
urinary catheter (flexible tube inserted into bladder to drain urine) bag were uncovered and visible to other
residents and visitors to see and not in accordance with facility's policy and procedure.
This failure resulted in the violation of Residents 69 and 191's right to privacy and dignity.
Findings:
During a concurrent observation and interview on 1/6/25 at 7:50 a.m. in Resident 69's room, Resident 69
was lying in bed and observed with contractures (stiffening/shortening at any joint, that reduces the joint's
range of motion) of right arms and left legs. Resident 69 had a urinary bag connected to urostomy (surgical
opening in the abdomen to allow urine to drain from the body) and placed on top of Resident 69's bed.
Resident 69's urinary catheter bag was uncovered and placed on top of the mattress. Resident 69 did not
answer any questions asked.
During a review of Resident 69's admission Record (AR-a document with personal identifiable and medical
information), dated 1/9/25, the AR indicated Resident 69 was admitted to the facility on [DATE] with
diagnoses which included quadriplegia (paralysis [loss of the ability to move some or all parts of the body]
from the neck down, including legs, and arms, usually due to spinal cord injury) and artificial openings of
urinary tract status.
Review of Resident 69's Minimum Data Set (MDS-a federally mandated resident assessment tool)
assessment dated [DATE], indicated Resident 69's Brief Interview for Mental Status (BIMS-screening tool
used in nursing home to assess cognition) assessment score was 4 out of 15 (0-15 scale [0-6 severe
cognitive deficit, 7-12 moderate cognitive deficit, 13-15 no cognitive deficit]) indicating Resident 69 had
severe cognitive deficit.
During a concurrent observation and interview on 1/6/25 at 9:05 a.m. in Resident 191's room, Resident 191
was sitting at the edge of the bed. Resident 191 stated he had been in the facility since 12/20/24 and had a
colostomy (opening in the abdominal wall to allow waste to exit the body) and urinary catheter for a few
weeks. Resident 191 stated he did not realize his catheter was on the floor under the bed. Resident 191
stated he preferred the urinary catheter covered and not visible for everyone walking by to see.

Allow residents to self-administer drugs if determined clinically appropriate.
Level of Harm - Minimal harm
or potential for actual harm
Based on observation, interview, and record review the facility failed to provide the right to self-administer
medication for one of seven sampled residents (Resident 92), when Resident 92 had not been assessed for
her ability to keep her albuterol (a medication which makes it easier to breathe) inhaler at bedside and
self-administer it as needed.
Residents Affected - Few
This failure violated Resident 92's right to self-administer her own medication and had the potential to
cause her to experience breathing difficulties as a result of not having her inhaler nearby.
Findings:
During a review of resident 92's admission Record (AR- a document which provides resident contact
details, a brief medical history level of functioning, preferences, and wishes), dated 1/9/25, the AR
indicated, Resident 92 was her own responsible party (person designated to make decisions regarding
treatment) and was admitted with asthma (lung disease which makes breathing difficult as a result of
swelling in the airway), and shortness of breath (the feeling of not being able to breathe normally or deeply
enough).
During a review of Resident 92's Minimum Data Set (MDS- resident assessment tool which indicates
physical and cognitive [ability to think, memorize and process information] abilities), dated 11/20/24, the
MDS indicated a brief interview for mental status (BIMS- an assessment used to determine the cognitive
ability of a resident) score of 13 out of 15 (0-7 severe cognitive impairment, 8-12 moderate cognitive
impairment, 13-15 no cognitive impairment), indicating Resident 92 had no cognitive impairment.
During a concurrent observation and interview on 1/6/25 at 8:21 a.m. in Resident 92's room with Resident
92, no albuterol inhaler was available on Resident 92's bedside table or nightstand. Resident 92 stated she
used an inhaler for asthma. Resident 92 stated she would like to keep her inhaler at bedside, and she had
asked staff if she could, but they told her no.
During an interview on 1/6/25 at 8:22 with Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA) 1, CNA 1 stated she had
heard Resident 92 request an inhaler before. CNA 1 stated she told Resident 92 she could not keep
medications at bedside as none of the residents were allowed to. CNA 1 stated she was not aware nurses
could allow residents to keep their medications at bedside.
During an interview on 1/9/24 at 2:31 p.m. with CNA 2, CNA 2 stated none of the residents were allowed to
keep inhalers with them at bedside or self-administer medications. CNA 2 stated she told residents the
nurses will provide all of their medications once they need them.
During an interview on 1/9/24 at 2:55 p.m. with Registered Nurse (RN) 1, RN 1 stated nurses do not allow
residents to keep their inhalers or self-administer their own medication. RN 1 stated no resident was
allowed to keep an inhaler at bedside or self-administer it, they must wait for the nurses to provide their
medication.
During a concurrent interview and record review on 1/10/25 at 10:53 a.m. with Licensed Vocational Nurse
(LVN) 1, Resident 92's Order Summary Report, dated 1/10/25 was reviewed. The Order Summary Report
indicated Resident 92 had no orders to self-administer her albuterol. LVN 1 stated in order for Resident 92
to be able to self-administer her inhaler she would need a doctor's order. LVN 1 stated

Resident 92 did not have an order to self-administer her medications. LVN1 stated Resident 92 was her
own responsible party and was capable of making her own decisions which made her a good candidate to
self-administer her inhaler and keep it at bedside. LVN 1 stated nurses should have assessed Resident 92
for her ability to keep and properly self-administer her inhaler and then obtain a doctors order. LVN 1 stated
it was important to allow Resident 92 to be able to keep her inhaler at bedside because staff may be too
busy to give her the inhaler immediately in cases of an emergency.
During an interview on 1/10/25 at 3:01 with the Director of Nursing (DON), the DON stated residents had
the right to be able to self- administer their own medication. The DON stated nurses should have assessed
Resident 92 to see if she was capable of administering her own medication.
During a review of the facility's Policy and Procedure titled, Bedside Medication Storage, dated 2019,
indicated, . Bedside Medication storage is permitted for residents who are able to self-administer, upon the
written order of the prescriber and when it is deemed appropriate in the judgment of the facility's
interdisciplinary team .

Assessment (an assessment which captures a major decline or improvement in a resident's condition) in
the Minimum Data Set (MDS-a federally mandated resident assessment tool) assessment for one of five
sampled residents (Resident 67) when Resident 67 developed a facility acquired Stage 3 pressure ulcer (a
wound which develops as a result of prolonged pressure to one area) to left buttock and did not have a
significant change of condition assessment in accordance with facility's policy and procedure.
Residents Affected - Few
This failure placed Resident 67 at risk for further decline in health including worsening of her wounds.
Findings:

room. Resident 67 was observed lying in bed watching television, clean and well groomed. Resident 67 was
alert and oriented and understood questions clearly. Resident 67 stated she had a wound on her buttock
and nurses were providing wound treatment.
During a record review of Resident 67's admission Record (AR), dated 1/9/25, the AR indicated, Resident
67 was admitted to the facility on [DATE] with diagnoses of hypertensive heart disease with heart failure (a
condition when the heart muscle doesn't pump enough blood to meet the body's needs which can cause
fatigue and shortness of breath), morbid obesity (overweight-weight is more than 80 to 100 pounds above
the ideal body weight), quadriplegia (a condition causes a partial or total loss of function of both arms and
legs), and spinal stenosis (narrowing of the spaces within the spinal column or backbone).
During a review of Resident 67's MDS dated 11/13/24, the MDS section C indicated, Resident 67 had a
Brief Interview for Mental Status (BIMS-an assessment tool used by facilities to screen and identify
memory, orientation, and judgement status of the resident) assessment score was 14 out of 15 (a score of
13-15 indicates cognitively intact, 08-12 indicates moderately impaired, and 00-07 indicates severe
impairment), which indicated Resident 67 was cognitively intact. Resident 67's MDS dated [DATE] Section
M (Skin Conditions) indicated Resident 67 was at risk for developing pressure ulcers/injuries.
During an interview on 1/8/25 at 10:18 a.m. with Wound Doctor (WD), the WD stated he assessed Resident
67's wounds on 12/4/24 and diagnosed Stage 2 pressure ulcers to right thigh/inner aspect and Stage 3
pressure ulcer to left buttock.
During a concurrent interview and record review on 1/8/2025 at 10:20 a.m. with the Wound Nurse (WN), the
WN stated Resident 67 developed facility acquired pressure ulcers to left buttock and right thigh. The WN

**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
observation, interview and record review, the facility failed to develop and implement a comprehensive
person-centered care plan (CP-a detailed approach to care customized to an individual resident's needs)
for two of 12 sampled residents (Residents 94 and 63) when:
1. Licensed nurses (LNs) did not implement CP for Resident 94's foley catheter (a thin, flexible tube that is
inserted into your bladder to drain urine) to monitor signs and symptoms of infectious disease process.
This failure had the potential for Resident 94 to develop an infection and placed an increased risk on
Resident 94's health and safety.
2. Resident 63 did not have a comprehensive care plan for his diagnosis of Post Traumatic Stress Disorder
(PTSD- a disorder in which a person has difficulty recovering after witnessing or experiencing a terrifying
event).
This failure had the potential to result in Resident 63 to not received the care needed for his PTSD which
could result in serious mental health.

interdisciplinary care that reflects best practice .within seven days .
Based on observation, interview and record review, the facility failed to follow the policy and procedure
(P&P) to ensure the Care Plans (CP) were reviewed and revised for five of 23 sampled residents (Resident
45, 67, 74, 76, and 392) when:
1. The CP for Resident 45 was not reviewed and revised after Resident 45 had a fall and was sent to the
acute care hospital.
This failure placed Resident 45 at an increased risk for additional falls.
2. Resident 67's care plan was not updated and revised when his pressure ulcer (a wound which develops
as a result of prolonged pressure to one area) progressed to a stage III (a deep skin wound where the full
thickness of the skin is damaged, exposing the fatty layer underneath, but not reaching the muscle or bone)
wound.
This failure had the potential to result in Resident 67 to not receive the wound care needed.
3. Resident 74's care plan was not updated and revised for significant weight loss of above five percent in
30 days.
This failure had the potential for Resident 74's nutritional needs to not be met and put Resident 74 at risk
for further weight loss.
4. Resident 74's care plan was not updated and revised after a fall on 11/5/24.
This failure had the potential for Resident 74's needs to not be met and put Resident 74 at risk for further

**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
observation, interview and record review, the facility failed to complete personal hygiene and follow the
policy and procedure (P&P) Grooming Care of the Fingernails and Toenails for one of one sampled
residents (Resident 94), when staff did not cut Resident 94's fingernails on his contractured (a permanent
tightening of the muscles, tendons, skin, or nearby tissues that limits the range of movement of a joint or
body part) right and left hands.
Residents Affected - Few
This failure resulted in Resident 94 to have long fingernails that were growing into his hand with the
potential to cause pain and infection.
Findings:
During a review of Resident 94's admission Record (AR) the AR indicated, Resident 94 was admitted to the
facility on [DATE] with a diagnosis which included paraplegia (the inability to voluntarily move the lower
parts of the body), contracture of the left and right hand (a permanent tightening of the muscles, tendons,
skin, or nearby tissues that limits the range of movement of a joint or body part) and muscle weakness (loss
of muscle strength).
During a review of Resident 94's Minimum Data Set (MDS -a federally mandated resident assessment tool)
assessment dated [DATE], Resident 94's MDS assessment indicated Resident 94's Brief Interview for
Mental Status (BIMS -an assessment tool used by facilities to screen and identify memory, orientation, and
judgement status of the resident) assessment score was 13 out of 15 (0-6 severe cognitive deficit, 7-12
moderate cognitive deficit, 13-15 no cognitive deficit). The BIMS assessment indicated Resident 94 was
cognitively intact.
During a concurrent observation and interview on 1/7/25 at 10:38 a.m., with Resident 94 in his room,
Resident 94 was lying in his bed, semi-reclined with both of hands balled up in a fist. Resident 94 had long
fingernails with the pinky finger on his right and left hand curled back into his palm. Resident 94 stated his
fingernails were achy and hurt and probably going into my skin. Resident 94 stated due to his contractures
he could not see the pinky fingers on his hands. Resident 94 stated he had told staff about his nails but no
one had cut them.
During a concurrent observation and interview on 1/9/25 at 2:41 p.m., with Licensed Vocational Nurse
(LVN) 5 in Resident 94's room, Resident 94 had long fingernails with the pinky's on both hands curling back
into his palms. LVN 5 peeled back the right pinky and Resident 94 had a small skin indentation where the
nail was. LVN 5 attempted to peel back the left pinky and Resident 94 would not let her, he said it hurt to
move it. LVN 5 stated she had seen Resident 94's nails before and spoke to him about them, but he refused
care. LVN 5 stated those conversations (Resident 94's refusal) were not documented anywhere and either
were the long fingernails. LVN 5 stated she or a Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA) could have cut his
fingernails but he never had complained about them. LVN 5 stated that the skin assessments in the
electronic record were not accurate and needed to reflect the long curling fingernails of Resident 94.
During an interview on 1/9/25 at 3:25 p.m., with the CNA 10, CNA 10 stated she had told LVN 5 about
Resident 94's nails months ago. CNA 10 stated Resident 94 had requested to get his fingernails cut, but
when she attempted to do it, he would say no.

.Resident name: [Resident 40] . Staff Making Referral: [LVN 8] . Concrete Needs: . Podiatry consult .
Additional Comments: Please place on list for podiatry .
During an interview on 1/9/25 at 3:59 p.m., with the Director of Nursing (DON), the DON stated she was not
aware of Resident 94's nails. The DON stated nursing staff and SSA should have escalated the need for
immediate toenail care to her and they did not. The DON stated CNA's and licensed staff should have

they were grown out, thick and to the side. LVN 8 stated Resident 40's family members told her his nails
were really grown out and she put in the SSR to put him on the podiatry list. LVN 8 stated she did not want
to cut them because they were too thick for clippers at the facility. LVN 8 stated Resident 40's nails would
qualify as abnormal during assessment. LVN 8 stated the expectation for toenails was to be well groomed
and not grown out. LVN 8 stated Resident 40's nails were grown out sideways and should have been
trimmed.
During an interview on 1/10/25 at 5:30 p.m., with Medical Doctor of Podiatry (MDP- a Doctor that
specializes in foot care), the MDP stated Resident 40's toenails should have been trimmed every two
months and they were not. The MDP stated due to the nails not being trimmed, Resident 40's toes could
have been infected and cause an injury or pain.

**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
observation, interview and record review, the facility failed to follow the policy and procedures Medication
Storage, Disposal of Medications and Medication Related Supplies and have a secure medication
destruction bin (MDB- a bin for unused medications that are set to be destroyed) for two of two medication
rooms (Medication room [ROOM NUMBER] and Medication room [ROOM NUMBER]), when the
medication destruction bins' lids were not sealed.
This failure had the potential for drug diversion (when healthcare providers obtain or use prescription
medicines illegally) and overall unsafe medication practices.
Findings:
During a concurrent observation and interview on 1/8/25 at 10:58 a.m., with the Nurse Supervisor (NS) 2 in
the second-floor medication room, the medication room had a MDB with a lid that was loose and crooked.
The MDB lid was not sealed. The NS 2 stated the lid was not secure to the bin and staff could have taken
medications out of it. The NS 2 stated narcotics (highly addictive drug used for treating pain) and other
controlled medications (A drug or other substance that is tightly controlled by the government because it
may be abused or cause addiction) get wasted in this MDB after they were crushed and rendered into
powder form. The NS 2 stated there was currently powder in the MDB and that could be a controlled
medication. The NS 2 stated the MDB not secure put employee safety at risk and had the potential for drug
diversion.
During a concurrent observation and interview on 1/8/25 at 11:33 a.m., with a Licensed Vocational Nurse
(LVN) 3 in the third-floor medication room, the medication room had a MDB with a lid that was loose and
crooked. The MDB lid was not sealed. LVN 3 stated the MDB lid was not secure and it should be locked
shut. LVN 3 stated nursing staff discard narcotics in that bin in powdered form and it would be easily
identifiable for a staff member who wanted to divert medication. LVN 3 stated staff members could take any
pills or powder from the MDB.
During an interview on 1/10/25 at 9:12 a.m., with the Pharmacy Consultant (PC), the PC stated the MDB lid
not secured was a problem. The PC stated best practice would be for the MDB to be sealed so staff
members could not access the discarded medication. The PC stated an employee could have easily
accessed the bin and took medication out. The PC stated that if narcotics were in powder form, staff would
have had access to that as well. The PC stated drug diversion could have taken place and it was not safe.
During an interview on 1/10/25 at 10:02 a.m., with the Infection Preventionist (IP-- professional who make
sure healthcare workers and patients are doing all the things they should to prevent infections), the IP the
stated MDB not being secured was an infection control issue. The IP stated the expectation would be for
the MDB to be secured at all times, and it was not. The IP stated this was a drug diversion issue and
anyone with access to that room could have taken medications from the MDB.
During an interview on 1/10/25 at 1:43 p.m., with the Director of Nursing (DON), the DON stated the MDB
lid was not on properly in both of the medication rooms. The DON stated the expectation was for the lid to
be secure and it was not. The DON stated the policy and procedure (P&P) for Disposal of Medications and
Medication Storage were not followed.

Multiple-Victim Crime: Patterns of Diversion, Scope, Consequences, Detection, and Prevention, dated July
2012, (found at https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC3538481/) indicated, .healthcare workers who are
diverting drugs from the health care facility workplace pose a risk to their patients, their employers, their
co-workers, and themselves. It is essential that all health care institutions have a robust system in place to
identify and investigate suspected diversion as rapidly and efficiently as possible and that they implement
policies and procedures that enable a standardized and effective response to confirmed diversion. Drug
diversion by healthcare workers violates the core value that the needs of the patient come first. Clearly, if
we are to optimize our approach to inpatient drug diversion and its consequences, we must look at such
diversion not as a victimless act but as a multiple-victim crime .

Ensure drugs and biologicals used in the facility are labeled in accordance with currently accepted
professional principles; and all drugs and biologicals must be stored in locked compartments, separately
locked, compartments for controlled drugs.
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
observation, interview and record review the facility failed to store drugs in a safe manner for two of two
medication rooms (Medication room [ROOM NUMBER] and Medication room [ROOM NUMBER]), when
seven pills (Five in Medication room [ROOM NUMBER] and two in Medication room [ROOM NUMBER])
were found on the floor without packaging or labels.
This failure had the potential for drug diversion (when healthcare providers obtain or use prescription
medicines illegally) and overall unsafe medication practices.
Findings:
During a concurrent observation and interview on 1/8/25 at 10:58 a.m., with the Nurse Supervisor (NS) 2 in
the second-floor medication room, the medication room had five different (shapes and colors) unidentifiable
pills on the floor. The NS 2 stated there should not have been pills on the floor. The NS 2 stated the pills
were unidentifiable (impossible to recognize) and could be any medication the facility provided, even a
narcotic (highly addictive drug used for treating pain). The NS 2 stated it was not safe for random pills to be
on the floor.
During a concurrent observation and interview on 1/8/25 at 11:33 a.m., with a Licensed Vocational Nurse
(LVN) 3 in the third-floor medication room, the medication room had two different (shapes and colors)
unidentifiable pills on the floor. LVN 3 stated they were random pills and we don't know what they are. LVN 3
stated pills should never be on the floor like that. LVN 3 stated the medications on the floor could be
anything including a narcotic. LVN 3 stated the expectation was for those pills to be thrown away in the
medication waste bin and that expectation was not met. LVN 3 stated the medications were not safe on the
ground and someone could take them because the pills were unaccounted for.
During an interview on 1/10/25 at 9:12 a.m., with the Pharmacy Consultant (PC), the PC stated the
expectation was there should be no drugs on the ground in the medication rooms. The PC stated a staff
member, or even a resident, potentially could have gone into the medication room and picked them up. The
PC stated the medication on the floor had potential for a staff member abusing them (taking a medication in
a manner or dose other than prescribed) and they needed to be secured.
During an interview on 1/10/25 at 10:02 a.m., with the Infection Preventionist (IP- professional who make
sure healthcare workers and patients are doing all the things they should to prevent infections), the IP
stated staff members should have properly disposed of the medications and they should not have been on
the floor. The IP stated the pills on the floor could have led to drug diversion by a staff member. The IP
stated this would be safety issue for everyone in the facility. The IP stated the policy and procedure (P&P)
was not followed for Medication Storage.
During an interview on 1/10/25 at 1:43 p.m., with the Director of Nursing (DON), the DON stated the
medications were not secured and should have not been on the floor. The DON stated there was potential
for drug diversion with the medications on the floor. The DON stated this was not safe and the P&P was not
followed for Medication Storage.

Ensure each resident receives and the facility provides food that accommodates resident allergies,
intolerances, and preferences, as well as appealing options.
Based on observation, interview, and record review, the facility failed to ensure one of seven sampled
residents (Resident 92) was provided food that accommodated her allergies and preferences, when
Resident 92 had a listed dislike and allergy for lactose (sugar present in milk) products and was served milk
on 1/7/25.
This failure had the potential to cause Resident 92 to experience distress and an allergic reaction if she
drank the milk.
Findings:
During a review of resident 92's admission Record (AR- a document which provides resident contact
details, a brief medical history level of functioning, preferences, and wishes), dated 1/9/25, the AR
indicated, Resident 92 had an allergy to lactose and was admitted with gastroesophageal reflux disease
(GERD- a condition where stomach contents flow back up into the throat), asthma (lung disease which
makes breathing difficult as a result of swelling in the airway), and shortness of breath (the feeling of not
being able to breathe normally or deeply enough).
During a review of Resident 92's Minimum Data Set (MDS- resident assessment tool which indicates
physical and cognitive [ability to think, memorize and process information] abilities), dated 11/20/24, the
MDS indicated a brief interview for mental status (BIMS- an assessment used to determine the cognitive
ability of a resident) score of 13 out of 15 (0-7 severe cognitive impairment, 8-12 moderate cognitive
impairment, 13-15 no cognitive impairment), indicating Resident 92 had no cognitive impairment.
During a concurrent observation and interview on 1/7/25 at 2:09 p.m. with Resident 92 in Resident 92's
room, Resident 92 was served milk with her lunch. Resident 92 stated she did not want milk and the facility
gave her milk daily. Resident 92 stated she was allergic to milk and had told staff she did not want to
receive it.
During a concurrent interview and record review on 1/7/24 at 2:09 p.m. with Resident 92, Resident 92's,
Meal Ticket, dated 1/7/25 was reviewed. The Meal Ticket indicated Resident 92 had a dislike of lactose.
Resident 92's allergy was not listed on the Meal Ticket. Resident 92 stated she was allergic to lactose and
couldn't drink milk. Resident 92 stated consuming lactose made her stomach really upset and caused
discomfort due to her GERD.
During an interview on 1/9/24 at 2:31 p.m. with Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA) 2, CNA 2 stated kitchen
staff were supposed to ensure the correct resident meal was placed on the plate; nurses were responsible
for ensuring the provided meal was accurate once it got to the floor. CNA 2 stated CNAs could also check
the Meal Ticket right before the resident eats their food to ensure it was accurate. CNA 2 stated CNAs were
trained on looking for resident allergies, preferences, and prescribed diet when reviewing a residents Meal
Ticket in order to ensure the Residents received the correct meal. CNA 2 stated Resident 92 should not
have had milk on her tray since it was on her dislikes list. CNA 2 stated kitchen staff should have noticed
the residents allergies and preferences when plating her food. CNA 2 stated it was important to list and
follow a residents food allergies and preferences in order for residents to not experience distress or suffer
through an allergic reaction.

Ensure therapeutic diets are prescribed by the attending physician and may be delegated to a registered or
licensed dietitian, to the extent allowed by State law.
Based on observation, interview, and record review, the facility failed to provide a mechanical soft diet (a
diet that involves only foods that are physically soft with the goal of reducing or eliminating the need to
chew the food) according to the physician order for one of 32 sampled residents (Resident 83) when,
Resident 83 did not receive mechanical soft diet per physician's order and was served whole kernel corn
with her meal.
This failure placed resident 83 at risk for choking and aspiration (when food, liquid, or other material enters
a person's airway and eventually the lungs by accident).
Findings:
During a concurrent observation and interview on 1/6/25 at 8:24 a.m. with Resident 83 in Resident 83's

facility for three years. Resident 83 stated the food served was always cold and tasted bad. Resident 83
stated she had no teeth, and the facility gave her food she could not chew. Resident 83 stated she was on a
mechanical soft diet, but the facility did not always chop her food. Resident 83 stated she was given fruit
that she could not chew.

which includes patient identification, past medical history, insurance status, care providers, family contact
information and other pertinent information), dated 1/9/25, the AR indicated Resident 83 was admitted to
the facility from the acute care hospital on 4/28/22 with diagnoses of cerebral infarction (damage to tissues
in the brain due to a loss of oxygen to the area), Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (when the blood sugar levels in
the body are too high), protein-calorie malnutrition (inadequate intake of food), dementia (loss of memory,
language, problem-solving and other thinking abilities that are severe enough to interfere with daily life),
major depressive disorder (a mental health disorder characterized by persistently depressed mood or loss
of interest in activities), muscle weakness and history of falling.
During a review of Resident 83's Minimum Data Set (MDS - a resident assessment tool used to identify
cognitive [mental processes] and physical functional level assessment), dated 10/25/24, the MDS section C
indicated Resident 83 had a Brief Interview for Mental Status (BIMS - a test given by medical professionals
to determine cognitive understanding on a scale of 1-15 ) score of 10 out of 15 (a score of 0-7 suggests
severe cognitive impairment, 8-12 suggests moderately impaired, 13-15 suggests cognitively intact), which
suggested Resident 83 was moderately impaired.
During a concurrent observation and interview on 1/6/25 at 1:06 p.m. with Resident 83 in Resident 83's
room, Resident 83's meal plate was observed to have pasta and whole kernel corn. Resident 83 stated her
food was cold. Resident 83's meal ticket was observed as . CCHO (carbohydrate restricted) diet,

Safeguard resident-identifiable information and/or maintain medical records on each resident that are in
accordance with accepted professional standards.
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
interview, and record review, the facility failed to maintain accurate and complete medical records in
accordance with facility's policy and procedure (P&P) and professional standards of practices for one of five
sampled residents (Resident 137) when the Physician Orders for Life-Sustaining Treatment (POLST- a form
that contains written medical orders for healthcare professionals regarding specific medical treatments that
can or cannot be done at the end-of life) was not accurate and complete. Sections C for POLST form which
included -artificially administered nutrition, physician signature, physician license, physician phone number,
and date was incomplete.
This failure had the potential for Resident 137's decisions regarding treatment options and end-of-life
wishes to not be honored.
Findings:
During a review of Resident 137's admission Record (AR - a summary of information regarding a patient
which includes patient identification, past medical history, insurance status, care providers, family contact
information and other pertinent information), dated [DATE], the AR indicated Resident 137 was admitted to
the facility from the acute care hospital on [DATE] with diagnoses of pneumonia (an infection that affects
one or both lungs, causing the air sacs of the lungs to fill with fluid), Pleural Effusion (a buildup of fluid
between the tissues that line the lungs and the chest), Cognitive Communication Deficit (difficulty with
thinking and how someone uses language), dysphagia (difficulty swallowing), failure to thrive (a decline
caused by chronic diseases and functional impairments which can cause weight loss, decreased appetite,
poor nutrition, and inactivity), and dementia (loss of memory, language, problem-solving and other thinking
abilities that are severe enough to interfere with daily life).
During a review of Resident 137's Minimum Data Set (MDS - a resident assessment tool used to identify
cognitive [mental processes] and physical functional level assessment), dated [DATE], the MDS section C
indicated Resident 137 had a Brief Interview for Mental Status (BIMS - a test given by medical
professionals to determine cognitive understanding on a scale of 1-15 ) score of seven out of 15 (a score of
0-7 suggests severe cognitive impairment, 8-12 suggests moderately impaired, 13-15 suggests cognitively
intact), which suggested Resident 137 had severe cognitive impairment.
During a concurrent interview and record review on [DATE] at 10:29 a.m. with Licensed Vocational Nurse
(LVN) 4, Resident 137's POLST, dated [DATE] was reviewed. LVN 4 stated Resident 137's POLST was not
complete. LVN 4 stated if an emergency happened and Resident 137 could not make decisions, the
treatment plan for Resident 137 would be carried out according to Resident 137's wishes listed on the
POLST. LVN 4 stated the facility should have notified the physician immediately, so he could have
discussed the POLST with Resident 137 and sign the POLST. LVN 4 stated Resident 137 was listed in the
computer as Do Not Resuscitate (DNR- a medical order written by a doctor to instruct health care providers
NOT to do CPR) . LVN 4 stated Resident 137's POLST should have been completed.
During a concurrent interview and record review on [DATE] at 10:37 a.m. with Nursing Supervisor (NS) 2,
Resident 137's POLST, dated [DATE] was reviewed. NS 2 stated Resident 137's POLST was not complete
if the POLST was not signed by the physician and there were empty fields on the form. NS 2 stated she
would have been notified by the admissions nurse if a resident needed a POLST completed, and

invalid physician order and staff would perform a Full Code (FC-medical personnel would do everything
possible to save life in a medical emergency)on the resident if they were in an emergency situation. NS 2
stated an incomplete POLST would create confusion in an emergency situation, and Resident 137's
end-of-life wishes might not be met. NS 2 stated Resident 137's POLST should have been complete.
Residents Affected - Few
During an interview on [DATE] at 10:53 a.m. with the Medical Records Coordinator (MR), the MR stated
Resident 137's POLST was not uploaded in Resident 137's medical record since it was not complete. The
MR stated a resident's POLST needed to be completed ASAP (as soon as possible). The MR stated in
order for a POLST to be complete, every field must be filled in. The MR stated the maximum time given to
complete a resident's POLST was 72 hours from admission. The MR stated if Resident 137's's POLST form
was not completed Resident 137 was considered a FC in an emergency situation regardless of their
end-of-life wishes.
During an interview on [DATE] at 6:05 p.m. with the Director of Nursing (DON), the DON stated a POLST
form should have been completed when Resident 137 was admitted to the facility. The DON stated the
POLST was important to honor the resident's end-of-life wishes in case of an emergency. The DON stated
a completed POLST would need to have every section completed and have the physician's signature. The
DON stated having an incomplete POLST from December to today's date was not acceptable. The DON
stated Resident 137 should have had a completed POLST in his medical record.
During a review of facility's policy and procedure titled, Completion and Correction, dated [DATE], indicated,

Provide and implement an infection prevention and control program.
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 a sanitary environment to prevent the
development and transmission of communicable diseases and infections for one of two sampled residents
(Resident 55) when Resident 55's oxygen nasal cannula (O2 NC- tube that directs oxygen into the nose)
tubing and nebulizer mask (a mask used to inhale liquid medication in the form of a mist to treat lung
conditions) were laying on the residents nightstand not in a protective bag.
Residents Affected - Few
This failure had the potential to result in Resident 55's O2 NC tubing and nebulizer mask getting bacteria
and potentially resulting in a respiratory infection (an illness that inflames the respiratory system, which
includes the throat, nose, airways, and lungs).
Findings:
During a review of Residents 55's admission Records (AR), the AR indicated, Resident 55 was admitted to
the facility on [DATE] with an admission diagnosis which included Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease
(COPD a condition of the airways and the difficulty or discomfort in breathing) and asthma (a chronic lung
disease that causes the airway to swell and narrow, making it difficult to breathe).
During a review of Resident 55's Order Summary Report (OSR) dated 1/1/2025, the OSR indicated,
.Oxygen at 2 liters (L-units of measurement) per minute via nasal cannula continuously for COPD . order
date 8/23/24 . Albuterol Sulfate Nebulization (medication used as a mist to inhale and expand the airway)
Solution 2.5 milligrams/milliliter (mg/ml- units of measurement) inhale orally via nebulizer every four hours
as needed for wheezing (high pitched sound made when breathing is restricted/obstructed in the lungs) .
2/12/2024 .
During a concurrent observation and interview on 1/6/25 at 9:26 a.m. with Resident 55 in Resident 55's
room, Resident 55 was sitting up in bed putting on her make up and stated she had already ate breakfast.
Resident 55 had oxygen concentrator (device that produces oxygen for breathing) at bedside and hand
held nebulizer (device that turns medication into a mist for inhalation) on top of nightstand. The oxygen NC
and nebulizer tubing was observed laying on top of the nightstand and not in a protective bag. Resident 55
stated she used the NC and nebulizer mask daily.
During an Interview on 1/6/25 at 9:35 a.m. with certified nursing assistant (CNA) 12, CNA 12 stated all the
oxygen tubing including the nebulizer tubing had to be placed in a protective bag not to expose to bacteria.
During an interview on 1/6/25 at 9:53 a.m. with the Wound Nurse (WN), The WN stated the O2 NC, and
nebulizer mask tubing should have been labeled, dated, and stored in a bag. This was an infection issue.
During an interview on 1/10/25 at 10:36 a.m. with the Nursing Supervisor (NS) 2, NS 2 stated the standard
practice was to store oxygen tubing inside a labeled bag. The procedure for the nebulizer required the
nurse to place it on the resident and remove it when finished. NS 2 stated Tubing's were not to be left lying
next to the resident, the nurse was responsible for handling it properly. NS 2 stated not placing the tubing in
a protective bag was not acceptable.

1. Five of 23 residents' rooms on the first floor were observed with non functioning vertical blinds (window
coverings made of long, vertical slats that are attached to a headrail and can be opened and closed by
sliding along a track).
These failures had the potential of violating residents rights to their privacy.
2. A hole measuring approximately 2.5 X 2.5 inches on the wall with exposed wiring.
This failure had the potential to place residents and other staff in an unsafe environment which had the
potential to lead to electrocutions and pest infestation.
3. room [ROOM NUMBER]'s ceiling light fixture did not have light bulb and Resident 55's overhead light had
missing light bulb not providing adequate lighting to meet the needs of Resident 55.
