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 and record review, the facility failed to promote the resident/responsible party's right to be informed of and participate in treatment for one of five (Resident 29) sampled residents by failing to obtain a consent and inform Resident 29's responsible party in advance of the risks and benefits of a psychoactive (medications that affect the mind or behavior) medication, Seroquel (a medication used to treat symptoms of psychosis [a collection of symptoms that affect the mind, where there has been some loss of contact with reality]). Residents Affected - Some This failure violated the responsible party's right to make an informed decision on behalf of Resident 29 regarding the use of a psychoactive medication. Findings: During a review of Resident 29's admission Record (AR), the AR indicated Resident 29 was admitted to the facility on [DATE] with diagnoses that included Parkinson's disease (a progressive disease affecting the nervous system marked by tremor [involuntary shaking or movement], muscular rigidity, and slow, imprecise movements), dementia (a progressive state of decline in mental abilities), and a history of falling. During a review of Resident 29's Care plan (CP), last revised on 4/29/2024, the CP indicated the resident used psychotropic medications (medications that affect a person's mental state), Seroquel for psychosis manifested by visual hallucinations evidenced by seeing children that are in distress. The CP's intervention indicated to monitor for side effects (unwanted, uncomfortable, or dangerous effects that a resident may have due to a medication) of antipsychotic medications. During a review of Resident 29's History & Physical (H&P), dated 10/21/2024, the H&P indicated Resident 29 could make her needs known but could not make medical decisions. During a review of Resident 29's Minimum Data Set (MDS, a resident assessment tool), dated 2/18/2025, the MDS indicated Resident 29 had severe impaired cognition (ability to understand). During a review of Resident 29's Order Summary Report, dated active as of 4/1/2025, the Order Summary Report indicated an active physician's order, start date 3/19/2025, for Seroquel oral tablet 50 milligrams (mg, unit of measurement), 1 tablet given by mouth at bedtime for psychosis with visual hallucination manifested by seeing children running in the hallway and Resident 29 becoming aggressive.

F 0552 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Some record used by a licensed nurse to document medications and treatments given to a resident), dated 4/1/2025 to 4/30/2025, the MAR indicated administration of Seroquel 50 mg at bedtime on 4/1/2025 at 8 pm and 4/2/2025 at 8 pm to Resident 29. During a concurrent interview and record review on 4/03/2025 at 2:49 PM with Licensed Vocational Nurse 1 (LVN 1), Resident 29's medical record was reviewed. There was no documented evidence that indicated an informed consent was completed for Seroquel 50 mg at bedtime for psychosis. LVN 1 stated, an informed consent was needed for this medication [Seroquel], which was a psychotropic medication. LVN 1 further stated, psychotropic medications had numerous side effects making it important to educate and inform the resident/responsible party. During an interview on 4/4/2025 at 10:20 AM with the Director of Nursing (DON), the DON stated an informed consent needed to be completed by the resident or their family for the use of any psychotropic medication (a new order or an increased dosage) and it should have been completed by the nurse who received the medication order. The DON stated, if the informed consent was not completed, the medication should not be given. The DON further stated, without an informed consent the resident/responsible party would be uninformed, and it was their right to be informed about the [risks and benefits of the] medication. During a review of the facility's policy and procedure (P&P) titled, Woods Health Services - Informed Consent, revised 1/9/2025, the P&P indicated, the physician informs the resident/resident representative of risks/benefits of psychotherapeutic drugs and obtains informed consent prior to use.

F 0640 Encode each resident’s assessment data and transmit these data to the State within 7 days of assessment. Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Based on interview and record review, the facility failed to accurately code the Minimum Data Set (MDS - a standardized assessment and screening tool) related to anticoagulant (medicine that help prevent blood clots) use for one (1) of 1 sampled resident (Resident 26). Residents Affected - Few This deficient practice had the potential to negatively affect Resident 26's plan of care and delivery of necessary care and services. Findings: During a review of Resident 26's admission Record (AR), the AR indicated the facility admitted Resident 26 to the facility on 6/5/2019, and re-admitted the resident on 3/1/2025, with diagnoses that included hemiplegia (paralysis that affects only one side of your body) and hemiparesis (weakness or the inability to move on one side of the body, making it hard to perform everyday activities like eating or dressing) following cerebral infarction (happens when blood flow to part of the brain is blocked, causing brain tissue to die due to lack of oxygen) affecting left non-dominant side, diabetes mellitus (DM, a disorder characterized by difficulty in blood sugar control and poor wound healing), and muscle weakness (generalized). During a review of Resident 26's History and Physical (H&P), dated 3/3/2025, the H & P indicated Resident 26 had the capacity to understand and make decisions. During a review of Resident 26's Order Summary Report, dated 4/2/2025, the Order Summary Report indicated an order on 3/1/2025 to give Resident 26 Plavix (is an antiplatelet drug to prevent blood clots) oral tablet 75 milligrams (mg) and Clopidogrel Bisulfate give 1 tablet by mouth one time a day for cerebrovascular accident (CVA-stroke, loss of blood flow to a part of the brain). During a review of Resident 26's Minimum Data Set (MDS-a federally mandated resident assessment tool), dated 3/8/2025, indicated the resident received anticoagulant medication. During a concurrent interview and record review on 4/2/2025 at 2:32 PM, Resident 26's MDS was reviewed with the MDS Nurse, the MDS stated that Plavix is classified as an antiplatelet medication, not an anticoagulant, and should have been coded as such. The MDS Nurse stated that antiplatelet medications should not be coded under the anticoagulant section (N0415E) of the MDS. The MDS Nurse stated that each medication class had its own designated items to ensure precise documentation and compliance with the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) guidelines. The MDS Nurse stated that accurate documentation in the medication section (N0415E) of the MDS was crucial for reflecting the resident's medication regimen and ensuring appropriate care planning. During an interview on 4/4/2025 at 9:35 AM, with the Director of Nursing (DON), the DON stated that accurate documentation of medications on the MDS ensured that the care plan reflected the resident's actual needs. The DON stated that it helped staff provide the right care and prevented errors. The DON stated that incorrect medication coding can lead to improper care which could have negatively impacted Resident 26's health and safety. The DON stated that anticoagulant and antiplatelet medications are categorized and coded separately due to their distant mechanisms and clinical uses.

F 0658 Ensure services provided by the nursing facility meet professional standards of quality. Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Based on observation, interview, and record review, the facility failed to ensure that medications, their purpose, and potential side effects were explained prior to administration for one (1) of two sampled residents (Resident 19). Residents Affected - Few This failure posed a risk of adverse drug reactions, decreased resident understanding and compliance, and a violation of resident rights to informed consent. Findings: During a review of Resident 19's admission Record (AR), the AR indicated the facility admitted Resident 19 on 11/18/2022, with diagnoses that included pulmonary embolism (a blood clot, often originating in a leg vein, travels to the lungs and blocks a blood vessel, potentially causing serious health issues), diabetes mellitus (DM, a disorder characterized by difficulty in blood sugar control and poor wound healing), and dementia (a progressive state of decline in mental abilities). During a review of Resident 19's History and Physical (H&P), dated 10/16/2024, the H & P indicated Resident 19 did not have the capacity to understand and make decisions. During a review of Resident 19's Minimum Data Set (MDS, a federally mandated resident assessment tool), dated 2/24/2025, the MDS indicated Resident 19 required substantial/maximal assistance (helper does more than half the effort) with activities of daily living (ADL, term used in healthcare that refers to self-care activities) and dependent (helper does all the effort) with mobility. During an observation on 4/3/2025 at 10:14 AM, Licensed Vocational Nurse (LVN) 3 did not ensure to explain Resident 19's morning medications, their purpose, and any potential side effects with the resident prior to medication administration.

During an interview on 4/3/2025 at 10:30 AM, with LVN 3, LVN 3 stated that it was important to explain medications to the residents before administering them, because residents have the right to know what they're being given and why. LVN 3 stated that explaining the medications also helped build trust and gave the resident a chance to be part of their own care, which could help reduce anxiety, especially if they were unfamiliar with the medication. LVN 3 stated that providing information about medications allows resident to exercise their right to refuse or ask questions. During an interview on 4/3/2025 at 11:11 AM, with Resident 19, Resident 19 stated that when staff gave her medications, she wanted to know what was being given to her and what it was for. Resident 19 stated that it would have made her feel better, less confused, and gave her the choice to take them or not. During an interview on 4/4/2025 at 9:35 AM, with the Director of Nursing (DON), the DON stated that explaining medications to the residents was a key part of informed consent. The DON stated that residents had the right to know what they're taking, why they're taking it, and what to expect.

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 care in accordance with professional standards of practice for one of one sampled residents (Resident 8) by failing to: Residents Affected - Few a. Ensure Resident 8 received the correct amount of oxygen [colorless, odorless gas] ordered via nasal cannula ([NC] a device-lightweight flexible plastic tubing used to deliver supplemental oxygen, tubing ending is placed in the nostrils and is fitted over the patient's ears). This deficient practice resulted in incorrect oxygen administration to Resident 8 the the potential for a physical decline to Resident 8. Findings: a.During a review of Resident 8's admission Record (AR), the AR indicated Resident 8 was admitted to the facility on [DATE] with diagnoses that included urinary tract infection (UTI- infection that happen when bacteria enter the urethra, and infect the urinary tract), heart failure (when the heart muscle can't pump enough blood to meet the body's needs for blood and oxygen), and dysphagia (difficulty swallowing). During a review of Resident 8's Minimum Data Set (MDS, a resident assessment tool), dated 2/12/2025, the MDS indicated Resident 8 had moderate impaired cognition (ability to understand) and was dependent (helper does all the effort and resident does none of the effort to complete the activity or two or more helpers are required to complete the activity) for personal hygiene. During a review of Resident 8's Care Plan (CP), last revised 11/9/2024, the CP indicated Resident 8 had asthma (narrow airways in the lungs that makes it difficult to breath) with shortness of breath and listed an intervention to check the oxygen liter flow every four hours to ensure proper flow for Resident 8. During a review of Resident 8's Order Summary Report, dated active as of 4/2/2025, the Order Summary Report indicated an active physician order, dated 3/28/2025 for continuous oxygen at three liters (unit of volume) per minute via NC. During a concurrent observation and interview on 4/1/2025 at 11:49 AM with Licensed Vocational Nurse 1 (LVN 1), Resident 8 was receiving four liters of oxygen via NC while in bed. LVN 1 stated, Resident 8's oxygen should be set at three liters and decreased the oxygen concentration. During a review of Resident 8's Medication Administration Record (MAR), dated 4/1/2025 to 4/30/2025, the MAR indicated Resident 8 was receiving oxygen continuously at three liters per minute via NC each shift and the oxygen liter flow was checked every four hours to ensure proper flow. During a follow up interview on 4/3/2025 at 1:29 PM with LVN 1, LVN 1 stated oxygen was considered a treatment that needed a physician's order. LVN 1 further stated, oxygen should be administered by the licensed nurse at the ordered level because the doctor prescribed it that way and only licensed nurses were allowed to set oxygen levels.

F 0689 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Few Ensure that a nursing home area is free from accident hazards and provides adequate supervision to prevent accidents. Based on observation, interview, and record review, the facility failed to implement a physician order for floor mats to be placed on both sides of the bed to prevent injury in the event of a fall for one (1) of three sampled residents (Resident 36). This failure had the potential to result in a preventable injury, such as fractures or head trauma, due to an unprotected fall from bed, compromising resident safety and care standards. Findings: During a review of Resident 36's admission Record (AR), the AR indicated the facility admitted Resident 36 on 6/20/2023, with diagnoses that included Alzheimer's disease (a disease characterized by a progressive decline in mental abilities), dementia (a progressive state of decline in mental abilities), and repeated falls. During a review of Resident 36's Minimum Data Set (MDS, a federally mandated resident assessment tool), dated 3/14/2025, the MDS indicated Resident 36's cognitive (the ability to think and process information) skills for daily decision making was severely impaired. The MDS indicated Resident 36 required substantial/maximal assistance (helper does more than half the effort) with activities of daily living (ADL, term used in healthcare that refers to self-care activities) and was dependent (helper does all of the effort) with mobility. During an observation on 4/1/2025 at 11:05 AM, Resident 36 was lying in bed in semi-supine position with the bed in the lowest position. Resident 36 was noted with only one safety mat to the resident's left side of the bed. During a concurrent interview and record review on 4/1/2025 at 2:57 PM, Resident 36's Order Summary Report was reviewed with Licensed Vocational Nurse (LVN) 2. LVN 2 stated that Resident 36 had a physician order indicating to place a floor mat on each side of the bed to prevent injury during a fall. LVN 2 stated that following physician orders for bilateral floor mats is crucial for patient safety and adherence to the care plan. LVN 2 stated that if Resident 36 had fallen on the unprotected side without a floor mat in place, the resident could have sustained serious injuries, including fractures, head trauma, or other complications. During an interview on 4/4/2025 at 9:35 AM, with the Director of Nursing (DON), the DON stated that physician orders were part of the care plan and were based on the patient's medical needs. The DON stated that following physician orders is essential for safety and proper treatment. The DON stated that when a physician ordered floor mats, it was intended to help prevent serious injury, and failure to follow the order could have resulted in avoidable harm. During a review of Resident 36's At Risk for Fall Care Plan, the care plan indicated and included an intervention for the floor mat to be placed on each side of the bed to prevent injury during a fall.

Based on interview and record review, the facility failed to ensure accurate discharge disposition medical record documentation for one of one sample resident (Resident 50). Residents Affected - Few This deficiency resulted in incomplete and potentially misleading information regarding the Resident 50's discharge status. Findings: During a review of Resident 50's admission Record (AR), the AR indicated the facility admitted Resident 50 on 2/7/2025, with diagnoses including atrial fibrillation (an irregular heartbeat that occurs when the electrical signals in the atria [the two upper chambers of the heart] fire rapidly at the same time), shortness of breath, and muscle weakness (generalized). During a review of Resident 50's Discharge Planning Review, undated, admission dated 2/7/2025, the review indicated Resident 50 requested a discharge to another long-term care center. During a review of Resident 50's History and Physical (H&P), dated 2/10/2025, the H&P indicated Resident 50 had the capacity to understand and make decisions. During a review of Resident 50's Minimum Data Set (Minimum Data Set (MDS - a resident assessment tool), dated 3/11/2025, the MDS indicated Resident 50 was discharged to a short-term general hospital. During a review of Resident 50's Discharge Instruction Form, dated 3/11/2025, the form indicated Resident 50 was discharged to a long-term care center. During a concurrent interview and record review on 4/3/2025 at 02:07 PM, Resident 50's Discharge Instruction Form dated 3/11/2025 was reviewed with the Minimum Data Set Coordinator (MDSC) Nurse. The MDSC stated the Discharge Instruction Form indicated Resident 50 was discharged to a long-term care facility. The MDS Nurse stated she had incorrectly documented Resident 50 as being discharged to an acute care hospital. The MDS Nurse stated accurate completion of resident information in the medical record directly impacted patient care and regulatory compliance. During an interview on 4/4/2025 at 9:35 AM, with the Director of Nursing (DON), the DON stated accurate [documentation] in the medical record was the foundation of quality care. The DON stated [accuracy of medical records] guided the facility in developing the residents plan of care and helped ensure the residents needs were met. The DON stated accurate documentation of a resident's discharge status determined follow-up care, services, and support they received. The DON stated inaccurate discharge disposition could affect the resident and could potentially affect the help they needed after leaving the facility. The DON stated an inaccurate discharge disposition could negatively impact the resident and potentially hinder access to necessary post-discharge assistance. During a review of the facility's Policy and Procedure (P&P) titled, Charting and Documentation revision date 7/2017, the P&P indicated documentation in the medical record will be objective (not opinionated or speculative), complete, and accurate.
