Allow residents to self-administer drugs if determined clinically appropriate.
Level of Harm - Potential for
minimal 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 ensure the safe
self-administration of medication for one of 19 final sampled residents (Resident 745).
Residents Affected - Some
* Resident 745 had a bottle of the Glucosamine/Chondroitin (supplement) medication at the bedside.
Resident 745 did not have a physician's order to keep the medication at bedside. Resident 745 reported to
self-administer the medication despite not being qualified to self-administer. This failure had the potential to
negatively impact Resident 745's physiological well-being as well as the potential for the medication
interactions and inappropriate use of medications.
Findings:
Review of the facility's P&P titled Medication- Self Administration revised 1/2017 showed on admission or
shortly thereafter, each resident would be assessed to determine if they want to self-administer their
medication. It is the responsibility of the IDT to determine if it is safe for the resident to self-administer drugs
before the resident may exercise that right. The IDT must determine whether the resident or the nursing
staff would be responsible for storage and documentation of the administration of the medications, as well
as the location where the medications will be administered.
Medical record review for Resident 745 was initiated on 3/5/25. Resident 745 was admitted to the facility on
[DATE].
On 3/6/25 at 0814 hours, during an observation in Resident 745's room, there was a bottle of the
Glucosamine/Chondroitin medication in the resident's bedside drawer.
Review of Resident 745's H&P examination dated 3/2/25, showed Resident 745 had fluctuating capacity to
understand and make decisions.
Review of Resident 745's Order Summary Report dated 3/1/25, failed to show a physician's order for the
self-administration of the Glucosamine/Chondroitin medication.
Review of Resident 745's Self Administration of Medication assessment dated [DATE], showed Resident
745 was not a candidate for the self-administration of medications.
On 3/6/25 at 1113 hours, a concurrent interview, observation, and medical record review for Resident 745
was conducted with RN 2. Resident 745 was observed in bed with the Glucosamine/Chondroitin medication
at Resident 745's bedside. RN 2 verified the above findings. When asked, Resident 745 stated his daughter
brought the medication to the facility and he had self-administered two tablets the

the self-administration of medications. RN 2 further stated the potential risks of having the medication at the
bedside when the resident was not a candidate for the self-administration of medication were the drug to
drug interactions or the over consumption of the medications.
On 3/10/25 at 1234 hours, an interview was conducted with the DON. The DON stated all the residents who
wanted to self-administer their medications should have a self-administration medication assessment
completed. If the assessment showed the resident was not qualified to self-administer the medications,
then the resident should not have any medication at the bedside.

**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
observation, interview, and medical record review, the facility failed to update the care plan regarding
removing of oxygen for one of 19 sampled residents (Resident 49). This failure had the potential for not
providing necessary care and services to the resident.
Findings:
On 3/5/25 at 0838 hours, during the initial tour of the facility, Resident 49 was observed lying in bed with a
nasal cannula on Resident 49's face. The nasal prong was not in Resident 49's nose. Resident 49's nasal
cannula was distributing oxygen at 2 LPM and connected to the oxygen concentrator.
Medical record review was initiated for Resident 49 on 3/5/25. Resident 49 was admitted to the facility on
[DATE], and readmitted on [DATE].
Review of Resident 49's MDS assessment dated [DATE], showed Resident 49 had severe cognitive
impairment.
Review of Resident 49's Order Summary Report for 2/25/25, showed a physician's order dated 2/1/25, to
administer oxygen at 2 LPM continuously via nasal cannula to keep oxygen saturation level up to 92%
every shift.
On 3/5/25 at 0842 hours, an observation and concurrent interview was conducted with LVN 3. LVN 3
verified the nasal cannula was on Resident 49's face but the nasal prong was not in Resident 49's nose.
LVN 3 stated the licensed nurses checked Resident 49's nasal cannula every two hours because the
resident pulled out his nasal cannula. LVN 3 placed back the nasal prong in Resident 49's nose. LVN 3 took
Resident 49's oxygen saturation level and it was 91%.
However, Resident 49's plan of care did not address the resident's behavior of pulling out the nasal
cannula.
On 3/7/25 at 1335 hours, an interview was conducted with RN 2. RN 2 acknowledged the above findings.
RN 2 stated the licensed nurse should do visual checks of the residents including the placement of nasal
cannula every two hours. RN 2 further stated the licensed nurse should adjust the nasal cannula on the
neck area so it would not be dislodged right away. RN 2 stated the licensed nurse should also take into
consideration that the nasal cannula was not too tight so it would not cause pressure injury on the
resident's ear.
On 3/7/25 at 1645 hours, the Administrator and DON were informed and acknowledged the above findings.

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 document review, the facility failed to provide the
necessary care and services to ensure one of 19 sampled residents (Resident 745) and one nonsampled
resident (Resident 31) attained and maintained their highest practicable physical well-being.
Residents Affected - Few
* Resident 745's measurements of abdominal girth were not documented.
* The licensed nurse did not check Resident 31's last bowel movement prior to administering the stool
softener medication to determine if it needed to be hold as per the physician's order.
These failures had the potential for delay in providing the necessary care and services to the residents.
Findings:
1. Medical record review for Resident 745 was initiated on 3/5/25. Resident 745 was admitted to the facility
on [DATE], with a diagnosis of perforated gastric ulcer (a condition where an ulcer in the stomach wall
breaks through, creating a hole that allows stomach contents to leak into the abdominal cavity).
Review of Resident 745's H&P examination dated 3/2/25, showed Resident 745 had fluctuating capacity to
understand and make decisions.
Review of Resident 745's Order Summary Report dated 3/6/25, showed a physician's order dated 3/2/25,
to measure Resident 745's abdominal girth before breakfast every two days at 0630 hours. If the abdominal
girth was greater than 3 cm in size, the staff was to call the physician.
Review of Resident 745's MAR for March 2025 showed for the measurements of Resident 745's abdominal
girth on 3/3 and 3/5/25 at 0630 hours, were documented with a check. However, there were no
measurements documented for 3/3 and 3/5/25.
Review of Resident 745's Licensed Nurses Progress Notes failed to show the documentation of the
measurements of Resident 745's abdominal girth.
On 3/6/25 at 1125 hours, an interview and concurrent medical record review for Resident 745 was
conducted with RN 2. RN 2 stated Resident 745 was at the facility for status post a perforated ulcer. RN 2
reviewed Resident 745's medical record and verified the above findings. RN 2 stated the check meant the
nurses had measured Resident 745's abdominal girth. When asked what the measurements were, RN 2
was unable to find the documentation of the measurements and whether the measurements were
compared. RN 2 further stated the measurements should be documented and compared with the resident's
baseline abdominal girth to determine if there was an increase in the girth size.
On 3/10/25 at 1234 hours, an interview was conducted with the DON. The DON stated if there was a
physician's order to measure the abdominal girth, she expected the staff to measure and document the
measurements to track and trend the size of the abdomen.
On 3/10/25 at 1319 hours, the DON, Administrator, and Nurse Consultant were informed and

acknowledged the above findings.2. Review of the facility's P&P titled Medication Administration - General
Guidelines dated 10/2017 showed the medications are administered as prescribed in accordance with good
nursing principles and practices and only by persons legally authorized to do so. Personnel authorized to
administer medications do so only after they have familiarized themselves with the medication.
On 3/6/25 at 0902 hours, during a medication administration observation, LVN 2 administered one capsule
of docusate sodium (stool softener) 250 mg to Resident 31.
Medical record review was initiated for Resident 31 on 3/6/25. Resident 31 was admitted to the facility on
[DATE].
Review of Resident 31's H&P examination dated 10/8/24, showed the resident had the capacity to
understand and make decisions.
Review of Resident 31's Order Summary Report for 2/26/25, showed a physician's order dated 8/18/15, to
administer dioctyl sodium sulfosuccinate (same as docusate sodium) oral capsule 250 mg one capsule by
mouth in the morning as stool softener for constipation, and to hold if with loose stool.
On 3/6/25 at 1125 hours, an interview and concurrent medical record review was conducted with LVN 2.
LVN 2 verified she did not ask Resident 31 if she had loose stool. LVN 2 stated she forgot to ask when
Resident 31's last bowel movement was. LVN 2 stated Resident 31 was alert and could verbalize if he had
loose stool. LVN 2 further stated she should have checked Resident 31's medical record if he had bowel
movement before she gave the medication. LVN 2 stated she should have asked Resident 31 too if he had
bowel movement.
On 3/7/25 at 1402 hours, an interview was conducted with the DON. The DON acknowledged the above
findings. The DON stated the licensed nurse should have asked Resident 31 about his bowel movement
before giving the medication.

Provide appropriate care for a resident to maintain and/or improve range of motion (ROM), limited ROM
and/or mobility, unless a decline is for a medical reason.
**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 ensure the
treatment was provided to prevent a decline in ROM functions for one of 19 final sampled residents
(Resident 80).
* The physician's order to apply an extension splint to Resident 80's left elbow was not followed. In addition,
Resident 80's skin was not assessed when the splint was applied. These failures had the potential for
Resident 80 to sustain a decline in ROM functions, leading to muscle atrophy and decrease in functioning.
Findings:
Review of the facility's P&P titled Splint Application dated 5/2017 showed the splints should be applied
correctly to maintain the resident's ROM and prevent contractures and further loss of range of motion.
During the initial tour of the facility on 3/5/25 at 0922 hours, Resident 80 was in bed asleep and noted to
have contractures to the left arm. There was no splint applied to Resident 80's left arm contracture. Also,
the splint was observed in the clear plastic bag on Resident 80's cabinet.
Medical record review for Resident 80 was initiated on 3/6/25. Resident 80 was admitted to the facility on
[DATE].
Review of Resident 80's Order Summary Report dated 2/26/25, showed a physician's order dated 9/27/24,
to apply the left elbow extension splint to the left elbow for four to six hours a day as tolerated every
Monday, Tuesday, Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. However, there was no physician's order to include the skin
assessment when the left elbow splint was applied.
Review of Resident 80's plan of care showed a care plan problem dated 9/29/24, addressing the potential
decline in the resident's ROM and mobility. The interventions included the application of the left elbow
extension splint for four to six hours as per the physician's order. However, there were no interventions to
include Resident 80's skin assessment on the care plan.
Review of Resident 80's Restorative Nursing Record for January and March 2025 showed the RNA had
applied the left extension elbow splint to Resident 80. However, the record failed to show an accurate
record of the time when the splint was applied and removed. In addition, there was no documented
evidence a skin assessment was completed when the left elbow splint was applied to Resident 80's left
elbow.
On 3/6/25 at 0939 hours, an interview and concurrent medical record review for Resident 80 was
conducted with RNA 2. RNA 2 verified Resident 80 had an RNA services ordered and the application of left
elbow splint. RNA 2 was asked what time she applied the left elbow splint to Resident 80. RNA 2 stated she
applied the left elbow splint to Resident 80's left elbow at 0800 hours, and taken off at 12 noon, for four
hours total every day. RNA 2 verified there was no documentation of the exact time when the left elbow
splint was applied and removed from Resident 80's elbow. RNA 2 was asked about Resident 80's skin

* The facility failed to ensure the floor mats were in place as per Resident 68's physician's order and care
plan. This failure put Resident 68 at high risk for falls and serious injuries.
Findings:
Review of the facility's P&P titled Fall Risk/Prevention dated 7/2018 showed the residents who were
assessed upon admission have a high risk for fall, a care plan will be developed and with approaches to
prevent falls may include the provision of floor mats at the bedside.
On 3/5/25 at 1037 hours, and 3/6/25 at 0813 hours, Resident 68 was observed in bed. The bed was
observed to be in the lowest position. There were no floor mats on both sides of the bed.
Medical record review for Resident 68 was initiated on 3/6/25. Resident 68 was admitted to the facility on
[DATE].
Review of Resident 68's Fall Risk Evaluation dated 2/15/25, showed Resident 68 was at high risk for falls.
Review of Resident 68's plan of care showed a care plan problem dated 2/15/25, addressing Resident 68's
high risk for falls and injuries related to bowel incontinence, bladder incontinence, poor balance, and fall
history. The interventions included to place the bilateral floor mats to prevent and/or minimize injuries from
fall.
Review of Resident 68's MDS dated [DATE], showed Resident 68 had a severe cognitive impairment and
required extensive assistance from staff for ADL care.
Review of Resident 68's Order Summary Report dated 2/26/25, showed a physician's order dated 2/17/25,
to apply bilateral floor mats on the floor to prevent and/or minimize injury from fall.
Review of Resident 68's SBAR Communication Form dated 1/23/25, showed Resident 68 had an incident
of a witnessed fall.
On 3/6/25 at 0914 hours, an observation and concurrent interview was conducted with CNA 5 at Resident
68's bedroom. CNA 5 stated Resident 68 had a history of fall, and they monitored the resident frequently.
CNA 5 was asked what they would need to place on the floor if the resident had a history of fall. CNA 5
stated they would place a floor mat on both side of the bed. CNA 5 stated Resident 68 had the floor mat on
both side of the bed. CNA 5 was asked to check and acknowledged there were no floor mats on both sides
of the bed.
On 3/6/25 at 1108 hours, an interview and concurrent medical record review was conducted with LVN 2.
LVN 2 verified Resident 68 had a fall risk and needed assistance from staff. LVN 2 verified

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 provide the
necessary care and services to maintain the IV access for one of one final sampled resident (Resident 745)
reviewed for IV care and failed to ensure the enteral feeding water bag was accurately labeled with the
resident's name for one of 19 final sampled residents (Resident 30) reviewed for enteral feeding care.
Residents Affected - Few
* The facility failed to ensure the baseline measurements of the PICC line external catheter length and arm
circumference were confirmed and documented in the medical record prior to the administration of the IV
antibiotics for Resident 745. In addition, the facility failed to ensure the PICC line external catheter length
and arm circumference were measured and documented during the PICC dressing change as per the
facility's P&P and Resident 745's care plan. These failures had the potential to delay the identification of
catheter related complications for Resident 745.
* The facility failed to ensure the enteral feeding water bag was accurately labeled with the resident's name
for one of 19 final sampled residents (Resident 30). This failure had the potential for the resident's care
needs to not be met as their medical information was not complete and accurate.
Findings:
1. Review of the facility's P&P titled PICC Dressing Change dated 3/2023 showed the dressing changes
using transparent dressings are performed: upon admission (if not dated or site not visible for assessment),
at least weekly, and if the integrity of the dressing had been compromised. The length of the external
catheter is obtained: upon admission, during dressing changes, and if sign or symptoms of complications
are present. Further review of the facility's P&P showed documentation in the medical record includes, but
is not limited to: the date and time of the dressing change, the site assessment, the length of the external
catheter, the resident's response to the procedure and/or medication, and resident teachings.
On 3/5/25 at 0959 hours, Resident 745 was observed in bed with a PICC line with a two-port external
catheter to the right upper arm. A transparent dressing with paper tape was observed with a label dated
3/5/25.
Medical record review for Resident 745 was initiated on 3/5/25. Resident 745 was admitted to the facility on
[DATE], with a diagnosis of perforated gastric ulcer.
Review of Resident 745's care plan for IV therapy dated 3/1/25, showed the interventions included to
measure the external catheter length for the PICC and midlines upon admission and with each dressing
change.
Review of Resident 745's H&P examination dated 3/2/25, showed Resident 745 had fluctuating capacity to
understand and make decisions.
Review of Resident 745's Order Summary Report dated 3/6/25, showed the following physician's orders:
- dated 3/1/25, to administer piperacillin-tazobactam sodium solution (antibiotic medication) 3.375

condition that occurs when the body's immune system overreacts to an infection) for 10 days.
Review of Resident 745's IV Medication Administration Record for March 2025 showed Resident 745 was
administered the piperacillin-tazobactam sodium 3.375 gm IV every six hours on the following dates and
times:
- from 3/2/25 to 3/5/25 at 0000, 0600, 1200, and 1800 hours; and
- on 3/6/5 at 0000, 0600, and 1200 hours.
Further review of Resident 745's IV MAR for March 2025 showed Resident 745's PICC dressing was
changed on 3/5/25. However, there was no documentation of the external catheter length measurement
obtained during the dressing change on 3/5/25.
Review of Resident 745's Licensed Nurse Progress Notes showed an RN admission Note on 3/1/25 at
1500 to 2300 hours shift. The nurse entry showed documentation Resident 745's right upper arm PICC line
external catheter length was 11 cm long and the arm circumference was 18 cm. However, further review of
Resident 745's Licensed Nurse Progress Notes failed to show documentation the licensed nurse had
confirmed the baseline measurements of Resident 745's arm circumference and PICC line external
catheter length measurement prior to the use of the PICC line to administer the antibiotic medication.
On 3/6/25 at 1046 hours, an interview and concurrent medical record review for Resident 745 was
conducted with RN 2. RN 2 stated for the residents admitted to the facility with a PICC line, the baseline
arm circumference and PICC external catheter length should be verified with the transferring facility or the
medical records. RN 2 also stated the baseline measurements should be verified and documented in the
medical record. RN 2 stated the PICC dressing changes were done weekly and as needed if soiled. RN 2
stated for every PICC dressing change, the external catheter length and arm circumference should be
measured and documented in the IV administration record or the nurse's progress notes. RN 2 reviewed
Resident 745's medical record and verified the above findings. RN 2 stated the measurements should be
documented and compared with the baseline measurements to determine if there were any complications
related to the PICC line.
On 3/10/25 at 1234 hours, an interview was conducted with the DON. The DON stated for the residents
admitted to the facility with a PICC line, the nurse was expected to communicate with the acute care
hospital about the baseline PICC measurements, to verify the resident's baseline measurements with the
measurements obtained upon admission, and document the verification in the resident's medical record
prior to the use of the PICC line.
On 3/10/25 at 1319 hours, the DON, Administrator, and Nurse Consultant were informed and
acknowledged the above findings.
2. On 3/6/25 at 0822 hours, during an observation, Resident 30's enteral feeding water bag was incorrectly
labeled with Resident 46's name.
Medical record review for Resident 30 was initiated on 3/6/25. Resident 30 was admitted to the facility on
[DATE].

weight. LVN 8 stated if the weight was accurate, the nurse should then inform the physician and document
in the progress notes. LVN 8 reviewed Resident 34's medical record and stated there was no
documentation the physician was informed regarding the weight variance.
On 3/10/25 at 1234 hours, an interview was conducted with the DON. The DON stated for the residents on
dialysis, the facility communicated with the dialysis center using the dialysis communication form. The DON
stated the form should be completed before the resident left the facility and should also be completed by
the dialysis center upon the residents returned to the facility. The DON stated the licensed nurse was
responsible for reviewing the dialysis communication form. Additionally, the DON stated the Dialysis Note,
which included the pre and post dialysis assessment of the resident, the documentation of when the
resident left the facility and returned to the facility, and the pre and post dialysis weights, should be
completed by the licensed nurse before the resident leaving the facility and upon returning to the facility,
after the dialysis treatment. The DON stated the nurse completing the post dialysis assessment was
responsible for comparing the pre and post dialysis weights and for any weight discrepancy of three pounds
or more, the nurse was expected to clarify with the dialysis center and document. For the GT residents on
fluid restrictions, the DON stated the routine water flushes and flushes administered during medication
administrations should be documented to accurately account for how much fluid the resident received.
On 3/10/25 at 1319 hours, the DON, Administrator, and Nurse Consultant were informed and
acknowledged the above findings.

Provide pharmaceutical services to meet the needs of each resident and employ or obtain the services of a
licensed pharmacist.
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
observation, interview, medical record review, facility document review, and facility P&P review, the facility
failed to provide the necessary pharmaceutical services.
* The facility failed to ensure the active ingredients for Resident 31's artificial tears medication were the
same as the Resident 31's physician's order.
* The facility failed to ensure the Controlled Drug Record matched the MAR for Resident 66's oxycodone
hcl (a narcotic pain medication).
These failures had the potential to negatively affect the resident's well-being and posed the risk of diversion
of the controlled medication.
Findings:
1. Review of the facility's P&P titled Medication Administration - General Guidelines dated 10/2017 showed
the medications are administered as prescribed in accordance with good nursing principles and practices
and only by persons legally authorized to do so. Personnel authorized to administer medications do so only
after they have familiarized themselves with the medication.
During a medication administration observation on 3/6/25 at 0902 hours, with LVN 2, LVN 2 was observed
preparing Artificial Tears (used to relieve dry eyes) lubricant eye drop for Resident 31. However, Resident
31 refused the Artificial Tears lubricant eye drop.
Medical record review was initiated for Resident 31 on 3/6/25. Resident 31 was admitted to the facility on
[DATE].
Review of Resident 31's H&P examination dated 10/8/24, showed the resident had the capacity to
understand and make decisions.
Review of Resident 31's Order Summary Report for 2/26/25, showed a physician's order dated 10/27/22, to
administer artificial tears ophthalmic solution 1% (carboxymethylcellulose sodium ophthalmic, medication
used to relieve dry, irritated eyes) one drop in both eyes two times a day for dry eyes.
On 3/6/25 at 1115 hours, an observation, interview, and concurrent medical record review was conducted
with LVN 2. The box of the Artificial Tears medication showed the active ingredients for Resident 31's
artificial tears were glycerin (a type of carbohydrate known as a sugar alcohol or polyol) 0.2%,
hypromellose (a plant-derived semi-synthetic, water-soluble polymer) 0.2%, and polyethylene glycol 400
(eye lubrication) 1%. LVN 2 verified Resident 31's Artificial Tears medication was different from Resident
31's physician's order for the artificial tears ophthalmic medication. LVN 2 acknowledged Resident 31's
Artificial Tears medication had different active ingredients compared to the medication the physician had
ordered. LVN 2 stated she would ask the person who ordered over the counter medication if she could
order the artificial tears medication ordered by Resident 31's physician, if not she would order the artificial
tears medication from the pharmacy. LVN 2 stated she would take out Resident 31's Artificial Tears
medication from the medication cart and would put it in the medication box disposal.

On 3/7/25 at 1354 hours, an interview and concurrent medical record review was conducted with the DON.
The DON acknowledged the above findings. The DON stated the licensed nurse should order the exact
medication per the physician's order from the pharmacy. The DON stated when the medication arrived, the
nurse who received the medication from the pharmacy should compare the medication to the physician's
order.
Residents Affected - Few
2. Review of the facility's P&P titled Controlled Medications dated 8/2014 showed when a controlled
medication is administered, the licensed nurse administering the medication immediately enters the
following information on the accountability record and the MAR:
* Date and time of administration.
* Amount administered.
* Signature of the nurse administering the dose on the accountability record of the time the medication is
removed from supply.
* Initials of the nurse administering the dose on the MAR after the medication is administered.
Medical record review of Resident 66 was initiated on 3/7/25. Resident 66 was admitted to the facility on
[DATE].
On 3/7/25 at 1059 hours, during the inspection of Medication Cart C, an interview, medical record review,
and facility document review was conducted with LVN 4. Review of the Antibiotic or Controlled Drug Record
showed Resident 66 received the oxycodone hcl 5 mg one tablet on 3/10/24 at 1840 hours, for severe pain.
Review of Resident 66's MAR failed to show the administration of oxycodone hcl 5 mg tablet on 3/10/24 at
1840 hours. LVN 4 verified the findings and stated she would ask for help on checking the documentation of
the administration of the oxycodone hcl 5 mg tablet on 3/10/24 at 1840 hours, in the MAR.
Review of Resident 66's Order Summary Report for 3/11/24, showed a physician's order dated 3/8/24, to
administer oxycodone hcl oral tablet 5 mg one tablet by mouth every four hours as needed for severe pain.
On 3/7/25 at 1326 hours, a follow-up interview, medical record review, and facility document review was
conducted with LVN 4. LVN 4 verified the resident's Antibiotic or Controlled Drug Record for oxycodone hcl
did not match the resident's MAR for March 2024. LVN 4 stated she did not know what happened because
Resident 66 was in a different station before.
On 3/7 25 at 1417 hours, an interview and concurrent record review was conducted with the DON. The
DON was informed and acknowledged the above findings. The DON stated when the nurse took the
narcotic medication from the bubble pack (a form of tamper-evident packaging where an individual pushes
individually sealed tablets through the foil to take the medication), the licensed nurse should have signed on
the controlled drug record. The DON stated the licensed nurse should have signed the MAR showing the
medication was given to Resident 66 as soon as the nurse administered the medication.
On 3/7/25 at 1645 hours, the Administrator and DON were informed and acknowledged the above findings.

Implement gradual dose reductions(GDR) and non-pharmacological interventions, unless contraindicated,
prior to initiating or instead of continuing psychotropic medication; and PRN orders for psychotropic
medications are only used when the medication is necessary and PRN use is limited.
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
interview, medical record review, facility document review, and facility P&P review, the facility failed to
ensure one of five sampled residents (final sampled resident, Resident 56) reviewed for the use of
psychotropic medications.
* Resident 56 who had diagnoses including dementia (a disorder which causes a progressive decline in
memory and behavior that affects the ability to perform everyday activities) was prescribed Seroquel (an
antipsychotic medication). There was no documented diagnosis prior to starting the Seroquel medication.
* The facility failed to ensure an informed consent was obtained and least restrictive measures were
implemented prior to starting Resident 56's Seroquel medication.
* The facility failed to ensure a care plan for the use and monitoring of Resident 56's Seroquel medication
was created at the time Resident 56 started receiving the medication.
* The facility failed to ensure the side effects of postural hypotension was monitored for Resident 56's
Seroquel medication.
* Resident 56 was additionally prescribed Ativan (antianxiety medication) as needed for agitation for 14
days. There was no clinical indication or documented behaviors of agitation.
These failures had the potential to place the resident at risk for receiving unnecessary medications and
increased risk of serious medication adverse reactions.
Findings:
Review of the FDA black box warning for prescribing Seroquel showed elderly patients with
dementia-related psychosis treated with antipsychotic drugs are at an increased risk of death. Seroquel is
not approved for elderly patients with dementia-related psychosis.
Review of the facility's P&P titled Psychotropic Drug Treatment revised 9/2017 showed the purpose of this
procedure is to provide psychotropic drug treatment for a resident with a specific condition as diagnosed
and documented in the clinical record. When their use is indicated, the facility should use the least
restrictive alternative for the least amount of time and document on-going evaluation of the need for
psychotropic drug treatment. The resident or his/her representative will be given information regarding the
need for, the desired effects and the potential side effects of the medication. This enables the resident or
his/her representative to make an informed decision regarding the use of any psychoactive medication. The
facility staff will monitor for side effects, reduce dosage to the minimum required, and when possible,
discontinue the use of such medications. The residents who have not used antipsychotic drugs will not be
given such drugs unless antipsychotic drug therapy is necessary to treat a specific condition.
Review of the facility's P&P titled Informed Consent Policy revised 4/2024 showed the attending physician,
physician assistant or nurse practitioner must obtain the informed consent of the resident

Have a policy regarding use and storage of foods brought to residents by family and other visitors.
Level of Harm - Minimal harm
or potential for actual harm
Based on observation, interview, and facility P&P review, the facility failed to ensure the P&P regarding the
outside food for the residents was updated to meet the state regulations and failed to ensure the visitors
and staff were educated on safe food handling of outside food. These failures posed the risk for food borne
illness to the residents who consumed food from outside sources.
Residents Affected - Few
Finding:
Review of the facility's P&P titled Foods and Liquids from Outside Sources or Other than the Dietary
Department revised 9/2017 showed the visitors are discouraged from bringing in potentially hazardous
foods, i.e., meats, fish, eggs, custards, milk products, etc. If such foods are brought to the residents, they
should be consumed immediately and not shared with other residents within the facility. Food items brought
into the facility for residents cannot be reheated or stored. They are to be consumed or discarded.
On 3/6/25 at 1609 hours, an interview was conducted with the DSD. The DSD was asked about the facility's
policy for food brought from the outside. The DSD stated the visitors were encouraged to bring food for the
residents; however, the food must be consumed. The DSD further stated if the food was not consumed, the
resident's family member must take the food home. The DSD stated the facility did not store food for the
residents.
On 3/6/25 at 1628 hours, a follow-up interview and concurrent facility document review was conducted with
the DSD. The DSD reviewed the documentation for the in-service provided to the staff on 2/12/25. The
attached material used for the in-service was the facility's P&P titled Food and Liquids from Outside
Sources or Other than the Dietary Department. The DSD verified the P&P showed the facility did not store
or reheat food brought from the outside. When asked if the DSD provided the staff and visitors with
education regarding safe food handling to prevent foodborne illnesses, the DSD stated he did not.
On 3/10/25 at 1234 hours, an interview and concurrent review of the facility's P&P was conducted with the
DON. The DON was asked about the facility's policy regarding food brought from outside. The DON stated
when the food was brought to the facility, the facility labeled the food with the resident's name and date, and
stored the food in the refrigerator for 72 hours. When asked if the facility provided education to the visitors
and staff on the safe food handling of the food brought in for the residents, the DON stated no. The DON
reviewed the facility's P&P for food brought from outside and verified the P&P showed the facility did not
store or reheat the food.
On 3/10/25 at 1303 hours, the DON, Administrator, Nurse Consultant, and RD were informed and
acknowledged the above findings.

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, medical record review, facility document review, and facility P&P review, the facility
failed to implement the infection control practices designed to provide the safe and sanitary environment
and help prevent the development and transmission of diseases and infections as evidenced by:
Residents Affected - Some
* The facility failed to ensure the water management plan was available which addressed and identified
where Legionella and other opportunistic waterborne pathogens could grow and spread, control measures
to prevent the growth of the pathogens, and how to monitor them.
* The facility failed to ensure the Administrator attended the quarterly infection control committee meetings.
* The facility failed to ensure the Laundry Attendant performed proper hand hygiene prior to touching the
clean linens. In addition, there were dirty items stored with the clean linens.
* The facility failed to ensure the staff donned proper PPE when checking Resident 645's blood sugar level.
* The facility failed to ensure the staff donned proper PPEs when assisting Resident 745 from the restroom
to his bed. Resident 745 had a right upper arm PICC line and a surgical abdominal wound.
* CNA 1 failed to use proper PPE when feeding Resident 696 on EBP.
These failures posed the risk for the transmission of disease-causing microorganisms to the residents in
the facility.
Findings:
1. Review of the CMS QSO 17-30 titled Requirement to Reduce Legionella Risk in Healthcare Facility
Water Systems to Prevent Cases and Outbreaks of Legionnaires' Disease revised 7/2018 showed the
facilities must develop and adhere to policies and procedures that inhibit microbial growth in building water
systems that reduce the risk of growth and spread of Legionella and other opportunistic pathogens in
water. Facilities must have water management plans and documentation that, at a minimum, ensure each
facility:
- Conducts a facility risk assessment to identify where Legionella and other opportunistic waterborne
pathogens (e.g. Pseudomonas, Acinetobacter, Burkholderia, Stenotrophomonas, nontuberculous
mycobacteria, and fungi) could grow and spread in the facility water system.
- Develops and implements a water management program that considers the ASHRAE (American Society
of Heating, Refrigerating, and Air-Conditioning Engineers) industry standard and the CDC toolkit.
- Specifies testing protocols and acceptable ranges for control measures, and document the results of
testing and corrective actions taken when control limits are not maintained.
- Maintains compliance with other applicable federal, state, and local requirements.

Level of Harm - Minimal harm
or potential for actual harm
Review of the facility's P&P titled Policy for Legionnaire's Disease revised 6/2017 showed it is the policy of
the facility to have a plan for the prevention of Legionnaire's disease. Under the section titled Process to
Develop a Water Management Program showed the following:
- The facility will develop a Water Management Program which will be reviewed annually.
Residents Affected - Some
- The facility will complete Water Flow Diagram specific to the facility to identify risk areas in which
Legionella can grow.
- The facility will determine risk areas by completing the Building Water System Process Flowchart and
implement controls and indicate where these controls are located by completing the Control Area
Monitoring Flowchart.
- During routine inspections of control areas, the facility will attempt to reduce areas of concern with the
specific plans that have been developed. Preventative maintenance plans have been developed for each
control area.
Review of the facility's document titled Legionella Risk assessment dated [DATE], showed a form which
was filled out in order to determine if the facility needed a water management program to reduce the risk of
Legionella growth and spread. The form showed the facility should have a water management program for
the building's hot and cold-water distribution systems.
Review of the facility's document Building Water System Process Flowchart (undated) showed a water flow
diagram specific to the facility; however, there was no documentation of identified risk areas in which
Legionella could grow or control measures to monitor.
Further review of the facility's water management program binder failed to show the Control Area
Monitoring Flowchart was completed as per the facility's P&P. In addition, there was no documented
evidence of a facility water management program which specified testing protocols, acceptable ranges for
control measures, and corrective actions taken when control limits were not maintained.
On 3/6/25 at 0910 hours, a concurrent interview, facility P&P review, and facility document review was
conducted with the Maintenance Director. The Maintenance Director verified he was in charge of the
facility's water management program. The Maintenance Director stated they tested for Legionella yearly and
the facility did not have any areas of standing water. The Maintenance Director was informed of the above
findings. The Maintenance Director was unable to provide documented evidence a facility risk assessment
was completed to identify where Legionella and other waterborne pathogens could potentially grow and
spread. The Maintenance Director verified the Building Water System Process Flowchart was not
completed and Control Area Monitoring Flowchart was not completed as per the facility's P&P. The
Maintenance Director was not able to provide a documented facility water management plan which
addressed the testing protocols, acceptable ranges for control measures, and monitoring for the controls.
Further review of the facility's water management program binder showed maintenance logs for the boiler
and hot water heater, air conditioning and air handlers, evaporative coolers, and ice machine. When asked
why these specific maintenance forms were in the binder, the Maintenance Director stated he included the
logs in the program because he was told to and did not know why he filled out the forms.
On 3/6/25 at 1607 hours, a concurrent interview, facility P&P review, and facility document review was
conducted with the Administrator. The Administrator verified the facility's water management
