F 0641 Ensure each resident receives an accurate assessment. Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm **NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** 2. A review of admission Record indicated Resident 79 was admitted in May 2024 with diagnoses including End Stage Renal Disease (Kidneys stopped working) and Dependence on Hemodialysis (life sustained through hemodialysis). Residents Affected - Few During an observation on 8/13/24 at 09:44 a.m. with LN 6, Resident 79 was observed with a hemodialysis catheter at right chest with two lumens (channels) and covered with clean dressing. During a review of Resident 79's Physician's Orders, dated 5/21/2024 indicated, an order of hemodialysis three times a week on Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday, and orders changed on 6/6/2024 to hemodialysis on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday. During a review of Resident 79's MDS, dated [DATE], the MDS indicated, Resident 79 was not receiving hemodialysis. During a concurrent interview and record review on 8/14/2024 at 2:45 p.m. with MDSC, Resident 79's MDS, dated [DATE], was reviewed. The MDS indicated Resident 79 was not receiving hemodialysis. The MDSC agreed for inaccurate assessment and stated Resident 79 might have missed care and treatment regarding hemodialysis. During an interview on 6/14/24 at 3:05 p.m. with DON, the DON stated staff should have maintained accurate assessment records and followed the facility policy. A review of the facility's policy titled, Certifying Accuracy of the Resident Assessment, dated 12/09, indicated All personnel who complete any portion of the Resident Assessment (MDS) must sign and certify the accuracy of that portion of the assessment. Based on interview and record review, the facility failed to accurately assess two of 19 sampled residents (Resident 9 and Resident 79), when: 1. Resident 9's Minimum Data Set (MDS; an assessment tool) indicated he had no behaviors; and, 2. Resident 79's MDS was found inaccurate for hemodialysis (a procedure to filter waste products and extra fluid from blood when kidneys fail). These failures decreased the facility's potential to identify residents' care needs.

F 0641 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm 1. A review of Resident 9's admission Record, indicated Resident 9 was admitted to the facility on [DATE] with diagnoses including dementia (a syndrome that causes a decline in cognitive abilities, such as thinking, remembering, and making decisions, that can interfere with daily activities), bipolar disorder (a mental health condition that affects a person's mood, energy, thoughts, and ability to focus), and mood disorder. Residents Affected - Few A review of Resident 9's Order Listing Report, dated 8/13/24, indicated Resident 9 was receiving 50 milligrams (a unit of measure) of quetiapine (an antipsychotic medication used for bipolar disorder and depression) for mood disorder and staff were to monitor Resident 9's psychotic behaviors manifested by mood swings and angry outbursts and record any episodes of resisting care as evidenced by refusing activities of daily living (ADLs). A review of Resident 9's MDS, dated [DATE], indicated Resident 9 had no behavioral symptoms and did not reject care such as ADLs. A review of Resident 9's Interdisciplinary [IDT] Notes, dated 11/10/23, indicated Resident 9 was on quetiapine for mood disorder due to known physiological condition manifested by attempts to hit staff and had 27 behavioral episodes in 9/23 and 80 episodes in 10/23. A review of Resident 9's Medication Administration Records [MARs], dated 4/24 and 5/24, indicated Resident 9 had 125 episodes of resisting care as evidenced by refusing ADLs in 4/24 and 51 episodes between 5/1/24 and 5/9/24. A review of Resident 9's Care Plan, dated 8/12/24, indicated Resident 9 had episodes of behavior disturbance manifested by verbal abuse towards staff/others, disruptive behavior manifested by attempts to hit staff, angry verbal outbursts, and resistance to care. During an interview on 8/13/24 at 2:58 p.m. with Licensed Nurse 1 (LN 1), LN 1 stated Resident 9 often had behaviors when the certified nursing assistants changed his briefs or showered him. LN 1 further stated if Resident 9 got really mad then he might run or try to hit the CNAs or other residents. During an interview on 8/13/24 at 3:04 p.m. with Director of Social Services (DSS), DSS stated Resident 9 had behaviors as indicated in his MAR and the social services assistant should have checked the MAR. DSS further stated Resident 9's MDS assessment was inaccurate. During an interview on 8/13/24 at 3:13 p.m. with MDS Coordinator (MDSC), MDSC stated Resident 9's MDS assessment was inaccurate which could have impacted his plan of care. During an interview on 8/13/24 at 3:24 p.m. with Director of Nursing (DON), DON stated Resident 9's MDS was inaccurate because he had behaviors and episodes of resistance to care. DON further stated the inaccurate MDS could have impacted Resident 9's plan of care.

F 0656 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Few Develop and implement a complete care plan that meets all the resident's needs, with timetables and actions that can be measured. **NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** According to an admission Record for Resident 82 he was admitted to the facility in late June 2024 with diagnoses including dementia (loss of cognitive functioning to an extent that it interferes with a person's daily life and activities) with agitation. During observation rounds on 8/13/24 at 9:28 a.m., Resident 82 was observed inside his room able to get up on his own, ambulate without using equipment and was wearing a wander guard bracelet to his right ankle. A review of Resident 82's Order Summary Report, dated 6/21/24, indicated an order for a wander guard to be worn due to elopement risk. Review of Resident 82's Care Plans revealed there was no care plan in place that addressed Resident 82's use of a wander guard. In a concurrent interview and record review on 8/14/24 at 1:47 p.m. with the Director of Nursing (DON) Resident 82's care plan was reviewed, and the DON confirmed that there was no care plan developed for the use of a wander guard. DON stated it should have been added to Resident 82's care plan from the time it was ordered. A review of the facility's policy titled, Comprehensive Person-Centered Care Plans, dated 12/16, indicated A comprehensive, person-centered care plan that includes measurable objectives and timetables to meet the resident's physical, psychosocial and functional needs is developed and implemented for each resident. Based on interview and record review, the facility failed to develop a comprehensive person-centered care plan for two of 19 sampled residents (Resident 14 and Resident 82), when: 1. Resident 14's care plan did not address the moisture associated skin damage (MASD) care and interventions; and, 2. Resident 82's use of a wander guard (a technology that helps keep wanderers safe while allowing to maintain dignity and quality of life) was not included in his plan of care. These failures decreased the facility's potential to address the residents' individualized and specific needs. Findings: 1. A review of an admission record indicated Resident 14 was admitted to the facility on [DATE] with diagnoses including joint contracture (shortening and hardening of muscles, tendons, or other tissue, often leading to deformity and rigidity of joints) and muscle wasting and atrophy (loss of muscle tissue). A review of Resident 14's Shower Sheet, dated 2/2/24, indicated Resident 14 had a redness over her right gluteal area.

F 0656 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm A review of Resident 14's Minimum Data Set (MDS; an assessment tool), dated 1/24/24, indicated Resident 14 had MASD. A review of Resident 14's Nurses Weekly Progress Notes, dated 2/2/24 and 2/9/24, indicated Resident 14 developed MASD. Residents Affected - Few During a concurrent interview and record review on 8/15/24 at 9:25 a.m. with Director of Nursing (DON), Resident 14's care plan was reviewed. DON confirmed there was no care plan for Resident 14's MASD. DON stated nurses should have created a care plan for MASD so they can implement the interventions such as applying barrier cream; otherwise without the care plan they might be unable to identify and prevent further skin break down for Resident 14.

F 0657 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Few Develop the complete care plan within 7 days of the comprehensive assessment; and prepared, reviewed, and revised by a team of health professionals. **NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on interview and record review, the facility failed to revise care plan interventions in a timely manner following a change in condition for one of 19 sampled residents (Resident 14), when Resident 14 developed moisture associated skin damage (MASD) and a right hip pressure ulcer (skin and tissue injury). This failure decreased the facility's potential to provide Resident 14 with a person-centered care plan and evaluate its effectiveness. Findings: A review of an admission record indicated Resident 14 was admitted to the facility on [DATE] with diagnoses including joint contracture (shortening and hardening of muscles, tendons, or other tissue, often leading to deformity and rigidity of joints) and muscle wasting and atrophy (loss of muscle tissue). A review of Resident 14's Nurses Weekly Progress Notes, dated 2/2/24 and 2/9/24, indicated Resident 14 developed MASD. A review of Resident 14's Situation, Background, Assessment, and Recommendation [SBAR] Communication Form, dated 2/28/24, indicated a deterioration in Resident 14's right hip skin tear with dark maroon/red discoloration to surrounding skin, some non-blanchable (does not fade when pressed) areas, and red/brown colored wound bed. A review of Resident 14's Weekly Pressure Ulcer Observation Tool, dated 3/7/24, indicated Resident 14 developed an unstageable pressure ulcer on her right hip. A review of Resident 14's Care Plan, dated 8/13/24, indicated Resident 14 was at risk for impaired skin integrity related to thin fragile skin, impaired mobility, and joint contractures.The care plan was last revised on 11/21/23. During an interview on 8/15/24 at 9:25 a.m. with Director of Nursing (DON), DON confirmed Resident 14's care plan was not revised and stated it should have been updated and revised quarterly and as needed to personalize the interventions when there were changes in care. DON further stated nurses might not implement the new interventions if the care plan was not revised. A review of the facility's policy titled, Comprehensive Person-Centered Care Plans, dated 12/16, indicated The Interdisciplinary Team must review and update the care plan: When there has been a significant change in the resident's condition; When the desired outcome is not met; At least quarterly .

F 0686 Provide appropriate pressure ulcer care and prevent new ulcers from developing. 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 identify and assess the skin condition for one of 19 sampled residents (Resident 14), when the licensed nurses did not assess or inaccurately assessed Resident 14's skin condition before she developed a right hip pressure ulcer (skin and tissue injury). Residents Affected - Few This failure decreased the facility's potential to prevent Resident 14's development of pressure ulcer. Findings: A review of an admission record indicated Resident 14 was admitted to the facility on [DATE] with diagnoses including joint contracture (shortening and hardening of muscles, tendons, or other tissue, often leading to deformity and rigidity of joints) and muscle wasting and atrophy (loss of muscle tissue). A review of Resident 14's Minimum Data Set (MDS; an assessment tool), dated 1/24/24, indicated Resident 14 had no pressure ulcers/injuries. MDS further indicated Resident 14 had a skin tear and moisture associated skin damage (MASD). A review of Resident 14's Shower Sheet, dated 2/2/24, indicated Resident 14 had a skin tear and redness over her right gluteus (buttock). A review of Resident 14's Nurses Weekly Progress Notes, dated 2/2/24 and 2/9/24, indicated Resident 14 developed MASD. A review of Resident 14's Shower Sheet, dated 2/16/24, indicated Resident 14 had an open area and redness over her right gluteus.

Residents Affected - Few During an interview on 8/15/24 at 9:25 a.m. with Director of Nursing (DON), DON confirmed Resident 14's nursing skin assessment on 2/24 was inaccurate. DON stated the nurses should have done a head to toe assessment to Resident 14's skin and if they were unsure about their assessment then they could have asked for supervisory consultation. The DON further stated having inaccurate skin assessment could have led the facility to miss the early identification of Resident 14's pressure ulcers and delayed the implementation of care/prevention interventions. A review of the facility's policy titled, Change in a Resident's Condition or Status, dated 5/17, indicated .the nurse will make detailed observations and gather relevant and pertinent information for the provider .The nurse will record in the resident's medical record information relative to changes in the resident's medical/mental condition or status.

F 0695 Provide safe and appropriate respiratory care for a resident when needed. Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Based on observation, interview, and record review the facility failed to provide respiratory care services according to professional standards of quality for one of 19 sampled residents (Resident 244) when Resident 244's administered oxygen was not consistent with physician's order. Residents Affected - Few This failure decreased the facility's potential to safely follow the physician's order when providing respiratory services and increased the resident's risk of developing lung problems. Findings: A review of Resident 244's admission Record indicated she was admitted in late July 2024 with diagnoses including heart failure. During the initial screen and interview on 8/12/24 at 9:33 a.m., Resident 244 was observed in bed breathing oxygen via nasal cannula (a device that delivers oxygen through a tube into your nose). The oxygen was connected to a concentrator which was set at 5L/min (liters per minute, unit of measurement). Resident 244 verbalized that it felt like the oxygen she was getting from the concentrator was too much. A review of Resident 244's Order Summary Report, dated 7/31/24, indicated Resident 244 had an order to use oxygen continuously via nasal cannula at 2L/min. A review of Resident 244's care plan, dated 8/1/24, indicated an intervention for oxygen to be administered to Resident 244 as ordered to decrease the risk of cardiac distress due to heart failure. During a concurrent observation, interview, and record review on 8/12/24 at 10 a.m., with Licensed Nurse 7 (LN 7), LN 7 verified that Resident 244 was using oxygen via NC, and it was set at 5L/min. LN 7 reviewed Resident 244's physician orders and then stated Resident 244 should only be given oxygen at 2L/min as ordered. During an interview on 8/14/24 at 1:47 p.m. with the Director of Nursing (DON) the DON stated it was her expectation for the staff to always follow the physician's order to properly care for the residents. A review of the facility's Policy and Procedure titled Medication and Treatment Orders revised 7/2016 it indicated Orders for medication and treatments will be consistent with principles of safe and effective order writing.

F 0730 Observe each nurse aide's job performance and give regular training. Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Based on interview and record review, the facility failed to complete the annual performance evaluations for three of seven sampled certified nursing assistants (CNAs; CNA 1, CNA 2, and CNA 3). Residents Affected - Few This failure increased the residents' potential to receive poor quality of care from CNAs. Findings: A review of an undated document titled, Employee Data Base-Certified Nurse Assistant, indicated the following: 1. CNA 1's date of hire (DOH) was 5/15/07, and last performance evaluation (PE) was completed on 7/13/22; 2. CNA 2's DOH was 5/9/23, and had no PE; and, 3. CNA 3's DOH was 4/24/17, and last PE was completed on 5/28/23. During an interview on 8/14/24 at 12:25 p.m. with Director of Staff Development (DSD), DSD confirmed CNA 1, CNA 2, and CNA 3's PEs were due and stated it should have been completed annually. During an interview on 8/14/24 at 12:59 p.m. with Director of Nursing (DON), DON stated the CNAs' PEs should have been completed annually to receive positive and negative feedback about the care provided by staff. DON further stated PEs are used to identify areas for improvement of residents' care and make sure CNAs are up to date and on track.

F 0756 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Few Ensure a licensed pharmacist perform a monthly drug regimen review, including the medical chart, following irregularity reporting guidelines in developed policies and procedures. Based on interview and record review, the facility failed to act on the Consultant Pharmacist's Medication Regimen Review (MRR) recommendation for one of 19 sampled residents (Resident 24) when the physician did not address Resident 24's MRR recommendation related to the use of risperidone tablet (an antipsychotic medication, that affects brain activities associated with mental processes and behavior). This failure had the potential to increase Resident 24's risk for the continued use of an antipsychotic medication without adequate indication that could cause adverse consequences. Findings: A review of Resident 24's admission Record indicated she was originally admitted in October 2022 with diagnoses including schizophrenia. Resident 24 receives psychological services through the Yolo County Mental Health. A review of an Order Summary Report of Resident 24 revealed an order, dated 8/8/24, for an antipsychotic medication risperidone tablet 1 milligram (mg, unit of measurement) given at bedtime for adjustment disorder (excessive reactions to stress that involves negative thoughts, strong emotions, and changes in behavior) with mixed anxiety and depressed mood. A review of the facility's Consultant Pharmacist's (CP) MRR dated 6/25/24 indicated that the CP reviewed Resident 24's medication orders and found irregularity in the use of risperidone because it was indicated for anxiety and depression. CP recommended for the physician to re-evaluate current regimen and/or update the order with the appropriate indication to help the facility stay in compliance with regulations. In an interview on 8/14/24 at 1:02 p.m., with the facility's CP, the CP acknowledged that Resident 24 had an order for risperidone 1 mg to be given at bedtime with an indication for anxiety and depression, CP stated that she submitted an MRR recommendation to the facility to review Resident 24's current use of risperidone. CP also added that she wrote a note reminding the physician of Resident 24 being given an antipsychotic medication without proper diagnosis to support its use. CP confirmed that there's no evidence of any documentation written by the physician stating the reason for Resident 24's continued use of risperidone. In an interview on 8/14/24 at 1:47 p.m., with the Director of Nursing (DON) the DON confirmed that the facility received the MRR recommendation from the CP regarding Resident 24's risperidone order without proper indication for use. DON stated the physician through the nurse practitioner was informed of the CP recommendation. The DON further added both disagreed with the recommendation but did not document the reason. DON acknowledged that the risperidone was still given continuously as ordered but should have been revised or updated with the right indication according to the regulations. A review of the facility's Policy and Procedure (P&P) titled Consultant Pharmacist Reportsdated 6/2021 the P&P stipulated The consultant pharmacist performs a comprehensive Medication Regimen Review (MRR) at least monthly.

Based on interview, and record review the facility failed to ensure one of 19 sampled residents (Resident 24) was free from unnecessary psychotropic medication (drugs that affects brain activities associated with mental processes and behavior) when Resident 24 was ordered an anti-psychotic medication without an adequate indication. This failure placed the resident at risk for unnecessary psychotropic medication use. Findings: A review of Resident 24's admission Record indicated she was originally admitted in October 2022 with diagnoses including schizophrenia. A review of an Order Summary Report of Resident 24 revealed an order dated 8/8/24 for an antipsychotic medication risperidone tablet 1 milligram (mg, unit of measurement) given at bedtime indicated for adjustment disorder (excessive reaction to stress that involves negative thoughts, strong emotions, and changes in behavior) with mixed anxiety and depressed mood. A review of the facility's Consultant Pharmacist's (CP) Medication Regimen Review, dated 6/25/24, indicated that the CP reviewed Resident 24's medication orders and found irregularity in the use of risperidone because it was indicated for anxiety and depression. CP recommended for the physician to re-evaluate current regimen and/or update the order with the appropriate indication to help the facility stay in compliance with regulations. In an interview on 8/14/24 at 1:47 p.m., with the Director of Nursing (DON) the DON confirmed that the facility received the MRR recommendation from the CP regarding Resident 24's risperidone order without proper indication for use. DON stated the physician through the nurse practitioner was informed of the CP recommendation. The DON further added both disagreed with the recommendation but did not document the reason. DON acknowledged that the risperidone was still given continuously as ordered but should have been revised or updated with the right indication according to the regulations. A review of the facility's Policy and Procedure (P&P) titled Psychotropic Medication Use dated 10/2017 the P&P indicated The use of an antipsychotic must meet the criteria and applicable requirements listed: Enduring Psychiatric Conditions .Not due to environmental stressors e.g. alteration in the resident's customary location or daily routine, unfamiliar care provider .Not due to psychological stressors or anxiety or fear .
