Level of Harm - Minimal harm
or potential for actual harm
Based on observation, interview, record review, and facility policy review, the facility failed to assess for
self-administration of medication for 1 (Resident #93) of 1 sampled resident that expressed a desire to
self-administer medications.
Residents Affected - Few
Findings included:
A facility policy titled, Resident Self-Administration of Medication, dated 12/19/2022, indicated, It is the
policy of this facility to support each resident's right to self-administer medication. A resident may only
self-administer medications after the facility's interdisciplinary team has determined which medications may
be self-administered safely.
An admission Record revealed the facility admitted Resident #93 on 11/05/2024. According to the
admission Record, the resident had a medical history that included a diagnosis of atelectasis (complete or
partial collapse of a lung).
An admission Minimum Data Set (MDS), with an Assessment Reference Date (ARD) of 11/09/2024,
revealed Resident #93 had a Brief Interview for Mental Status (BIMS) score of 12, which indicated the
resident had moderate cognitive impairment. The MDS also revealed that Resident #93 had adequate
vision with the use of corrective lenses and was able to be understood and able to understand others. The
MDS indicated Resident #93 had no functional limitation in range of motion in their upper extremities.
Resident #93's care plan included a focus area, initiated on 11/18/2024, that indicated the resident was at
risk for altered respiratory status or difficulty breathing related to atelectasis. An intervention dated
11/18/2024 directed staff to encourage Resident #93 to clear their own secretions with effective coughing
and to suction the resident if the secretions could not be cleared.
During an interview with Resident #93 on 12/16/2024 at 2:03 PM, a bottle of Robitussin (an expectorant
that helps loosen congestion in the chest and throat) was seen sitting on the nightstand to the right of the
resident. Resident #93 stated a family member brought the medication to them. Resident #93 stated staff
had to know they had the medication, since it was sitting on top of their nightstand in the open.
Resident #93's Medication Review Report, reflecting orders effective on or after 12/17/2024, revealed the
resident had no order for the use of Robitussin. There were also no orders indicating the resident was able
to self-administer any of their medications.
On 12/17/2024 at 4:51 PM, the Robitussin remained on Resident #93's bedside table. Resident #93,

the resident's roommate, and visitors were in the room. The privacy curtain was pulled between the beds,
and only Resident #93 or any person that went on the resident's side of the room were able to visualize the
medication.
Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA) #1 was interviewed on 12/18/2024 at 1:35 PM. CNA #1 stated if she saw
any type of medications in a resident's room she would leave the medication in the room, since she had
been taught not to move resident's property and would report the medication to the nurse. CNA #1 stated
she was caring for Resident #93 that day (12/18/2024) and had not seen any medication in the resident's
room.
An observation on 12/19/2024 at 10:03 AM revealed Resident #93 was lying in bed with the bottle of
Robitussin clearly visible on their nightstand. Resident #93 stated their family member heard them cough
and brought the medication into the facility a few weeks prior. Resident #93 said they had taken a couple of
drinks of the medication and that had been all. The resident said they would like to self-administer the
Robitussin but stated they had not been assessed for self-administration. Resident #93 also said staff had
not spoken to them about keeping the medication stored in their drawer out of sight.
CNA #2 was interviewed on 12/19/2024 at 10:27 AM. CNA #2 stated if he saw medications at a resident's
bedside he would tell the nurses. CNA #2 stated he had not seen cough medication at Resident #93's
bedside, although he had provided care to the resident.
Licensed Vocational Nurse (LVN) #3 was interviewed on 12/19/2024 at 10:35 AM. She stated that
12/19/2024 was the first time in two weeks she had cared for Resident #93. LVN #3 stated that prior to a
resident self-administering medications, the physician was notified and an order for self-administration was
received. LVN #3 stated the facility completed an assessment to determine if a resident was able to
self-administer medications. LVN #3 was unaware of any resident that was able to self-administer
medications and stated she had not seen medications at residents' bedsides. LVN #3 stated she was not
sure if Resident #93 had been assessed for self-administration of medications. LVN #3 then checked
Resident #93's room and found the bottle of Robitussin at the resident's bedside. LVN #3 stated that since
Resident #93 had no order for the Robitussin, the Robitussin should not have been at the resident's
bedside.
The Director of Nursing (DON) was interviewed on 12/19/2024 at 12:43 PM and stated there were no
residents in the building that had been approved for self-administration of medications. The DON stated if a
resident wanted to self-administer medications, an order was obtained from the physician, the
interdisciplinary team assessed the resident to make sure the resident was capable of self-administration,
and if the medication was kept at bedside, the physician's order had to include, May keep at bedside. The
DON stated he would have expected to be notified when the medication was found at Resident #93's
bedside.
The Administrator was interviewed on 12/19/2024 at 2:57 PM. The Administrator stated he expected
residents to be assessed for self-administration of medications prior to self-administration, per the facility
policy.

Coordinate assessments with the pre-admission screening and resident review program; and referring for
services as needed.
Based on interview, record review, and facility policy review, the facility failed to submit a new Preadmission
Screening and Resident Review (PASARR) following a newly diagnosed mental disorder for 1 (Resident
#45) of 2 sampled residents reviewed for PASARR requirements.
Findings included:
A facility policy titled, Resident Assessment-Coordination with PASARR Program, revised 12/18/2023,
indicated, This facility coordinates assessments with the preadmission screening and resident review
(PASARR) program under Medicaid to ensure that individuals with a mental disorder, intellectual disability,
or a related condition receives care and services in the most integrated setting appropriate to their needs.
The policy specified, 9. Any resident who exhibits a newly evident or possible serious mental disorder,
intellectual disability, or a related condition will be referred promptly to the state mental health or intellectual
disability authority for a Level II resident review.
An admission Record revealed the facility admitted Resident #45 on 10/14/2022. According to the
admission Record, the resident had a medical history that included diagnoses of unspecified depression
(onset date 12/08/2022) and depressive-type schizoaffective disorder (onset date 12/22/2022).
An admission Minimum Data Set (MDS), with an Assessment Reference Date (ARD) of 10/26/2022,
revealed Resident #45 had a Brief Interview for Mental Status (BIMS) score of 5, which indicated the
resident had severe cognitive impairment. According to the MDS, at the time of the assessment, the
resident did not have any active psychiatric or mood disorders.
A quarterly MDS, with an ARD of 01/26/2023, revealed Resident #45 had active psychiatric diagnoses at
the time of the assessment, including depression and schizophrenia.
Resident #45's PASARR Level I screening, dated 10/21/2022, revealed the screening type was an Initial
Preadmission Screening (PAS). The question regarding whether the resident had a diagnosed mental
disorder, such as Depression, Anxiety, Panic, Schizophrenia/Schizoaffective Disorder, Psychotic,
Delusional, and/or Mood Disorder was answered No. The Level I screening was Negative, and a Level II
evaluation was not required.
Resident #45's medical record revealed no evidence an additional PASARR Level I screening was
completed after the resident was diagnosed with depression and schizoaffective disorder in 12/2022.
During an interview on 12/19/2024 at 12:58 PM, the Director of Nursing (DON) said that if a resident was
diagnosed with a new mental disorder, a new PASARR should be completed. The DON confirmed Resident
#45 was diagnosed with two new mental health diagnoses in 12/2022, so a new PASARR should have
been completed.
During an interview on 12/19/2024 at 2:49 PM, The Administrator stated he expected staff to follow the
facility's policy for the PASARR process.

Level of Harm - Minimal harm
or potential for actual harm
Based on observation, interview, record review, and facility policy review, the facility failed to provide tube
feeding formula as ordered to 1 (Resident #85) of 3 sampled residents reviewed for nutrition. Specifically,
Resident #85's order directed staff to provide Isosource 1.5 (a type of tube feeding formula that provided
1.5 calories per milliliter) to the resident at a rate of 60 milliliters (mL) per hour for 16 hours per day, but staff
provided Fibersource HN (a type of tube feeding formula that provided 1.2 calories per mL) instead, which
created a potential for weight loss and for the resident's nutritional needs to not be met.
Residents Affected - Few
Findings included:
A facility policy titled, Appropriate Use of Feeding Tubes, revised 12/19/2022, indicated, It is a policy of this
facility to ensure that a resident maintains acceptable parameters of nutritional and hydration status.
An admission Record revealed the facility originally admitted Resident #85 on 10/09/2024 and most
recently admitted the resident on 12/12/2024. According to the admission Record, the resident had a
medical history that included diagnoses of dysphagia (difficulty swallowing) following a cerebral infarction
(stroke) and gastrostomy status.
An admission Minimum Data Set (MDS), with an Assessment Reference Date (ARD) of 10/31/2024,
revealed Resident #85 had a Brief Interview for Mental Status (BIMS) score of 9, which indicated the
resident had moderate cognitive impairment. The MDS indicated the resident had complaints of difficulty or
pain with swallowing and received nutrition by way of a feeding tube. According to the MDS, Resident #85
received 51% or more of their total calories through a feeding tube.
Resident #85's care plan included a focus area, initiated on 10/10/2024, that indicated the resident had a
nutritional problem or a potential nutritional problem and received food by mouth as well as nutrition by way
of a feeding tube. An intervention dated 11/01/2024 directed staff to utilize the resident's feeding tube as
ordered.
Resident #85's Medication Review Report, reflecting active orders on or after 12/17/2024, revealed an
order started on 12/16/2024 for continuous tube feeding with Isosource 1.5 at a rate of 60 mL per hour for
16 hours per day. The order directed staff to start the resident's tube feeding formula at 2:00 PM each day
and to turn it off at 6:00 AM or when the tube feeding formula had infused. The Medication Review Report
also revealed on order started on 12/04/2024 for a no added salt, bite-sized diet for breakfast, lunch, and
dinner.
An observation on 12/17/2024 at 3:40 PM revealed Resident #85 was receiving Fibersource HN by way of
their feeding tube at a rate of 60 mL per hour. The bag of Fibersource HN formula was labeled with a start
date and time of 12/17/2024 at 2:00 PM.
An observation on 12/18/2024 at 2:17 PM revealed Licensed Vocational Nurse (LVN) #5 was hanging a bag
of tube feeding formula for Resident #85. LVN #5 initiated the resident's tube feeding using Fibersource HN
formula. LVN #5 stated Resident #85's order was for Jevity 1.2 (a type of tube feeding formula that provided
1.2 calories per mL), but the Fibersource HN was a replacement formula and could be interchanged.

Resident #85's 12/2024 Medication Administration Record (MAR) revealed that during the 7:00 AM to 3:00
PM shift on 12/17/2024 and 12/18/2024, LVN #5 signed as having initiated the resident's Isosource 1.5 tube
feeding as ordered.
The Registered Dietitian (RD) was interviewed by phone on 12/18/2024 at 3:00 PM. The RD stated she
changed Resident #85's tube feeding formula on 12/16/2024 due to the resident's oral intake of food being
60 percent (%) to 80 % of meals. The RD stated the change in formula was to prevent weight loss as the
resident transitioned to an oral diet. The RD stated the resident's ordered tube feeding formula was
Isosource 1.5 at 60 mL per hour for 16 hours each day, which provided the resident with 1440 calories. The
RD stated substituting Fibersource HN was not a comparable exchange, since the resident would only
receive 1152 calories in 16 hours for a difference of approximately 300 calories per 16 hours. She stated if
the Isosource 1.5, which had been ordered, or Jevity 1.5, which was a comparable exchange for the
Isosource 1.5, was not available in the facility, she expected staff to call her for directions. The RD stated
she had received no calls from the facility regarding Resident #85's tube feeding formula.
The Director of Nursing (DON) was interviewed on 12/18/2024 at 3:20 PM. He stated if the ordered formula
for Resident #85 was not available, he expected staff to call the RD and the physician for directions. He
stated there was also a sheet in the tube feeding formula closet directing staff to what formulas were
comparable and could be exchanged. During the interview, the DON walked to the resident's room and
verified that Fibersource HN was infusing at 60 mL per hour. The DON then reviewed the resident's
physician's order and verified the order was for Isosource 1.5.
LVN #5 was interviewed on 12/18/2024 at 3:30 PM and stated she had exchanged the resident's formula
based on the formula exchange sheet hanging in the tube feeding formula closet. During the interview, LVN
#5, the DON, and the surveyor reviewed the exchange sheet, and LVN #5 again stated Resident #85
received Jevity 1.2, so the Fibersource HN was an acceptable exchange. However, LVN #5 confirmed she
had not reviewed the resident's orders and was unaware the resident's tube feeding formula was changed
on 12/16/2024. LVN #5 stated she went by what was used the day before and based the formula selection
on the empty bag hanging on the resident's tube feeding pole.
The DON was interviewed on 12/19/2024 at 1:36 PM and stated he expected the nurses to follow
physician's orders for tube feeding formulas.
The Administrator was interviewed on 12/19/2024 at 2:59 PM and stated he expected staff to follow
physician's orders when choosing formulas for tube-fed residents.

Provide safe, appropriate pain management for a resident who requires such services.
Level of Harm - Minimal harm
or potential for actual harm
Based on observation, interview, record review, and facility policy review, the facility failed to ensure pain
was treated after a request for an ordered as needed (PRN) pain medication for 1 (Resident #210) of 1

2. An admission Record revealed the facility admitted Resident #5 on 12/14/2023. According to the
admission Record, the resident had a medical history that included a diagnosis of colostomy malfunction.
Residents Affected - Few
A quarterly Minimum Data Set (MDS), with an Assessment Reference Date (ARD) of 09/06/2024, revealed
Resident #5 had a Brief Interview for Mental Status (BIMS) score of 10, which indicated the resident had
moderate cognitive impairment. The MDS indicated the resident had an ostomy.
Resident #5's care plan included a focus area, initiated 10/08/2024, that indicated the resident was on EBP
related to a history of extended-spectrum beta-lactamase (ESBL; a type of enzyme causing some
antibiotics to be ineffective in treating bacterial infections). The care plan indicated the goal was to
prevent/reduce the transmission of multi-drug resistant organisms (MDROs) through the use of gowns and
gloves while caring for residents at high risk for MDRO transmission at the point of care during specific
activities with the greatest risk for MDRO contamination of health care personnel's hands, clothes, and the
environment. The care plan directed staff to apply EBP to prevent the spread of infections for specific care
activities, including caring for devices, giving medical treatments, during morning and evening care, and
when cleaning and disinfecting the environment.
Resident #5's Medication Review Report, reflecting orders effective on or after 12/19/2024, revealed an
order started on 10/08/2024 for EBP due to a history of ESBL.
During a concurrent observation and interview on 12/16/2024 at 10:52 AM, Certified Nursing Assistant
(CNA) #10 changed Resident #5's bed linens while wearing a mask and gloves but no gown. At this time,
CNA #10 stated she had also provided the resident a bed bath while wearing a mask and gloves but no
gown. CNA #10 then stated that because Resident #5 was on EBP, she should have worn a gown and
gloves.
During an interview on 12/19/2024 at 12:58 PM, the Director of Nursing (DON) said he expected the staff to
wear the appropriate PPE when providing care to residents on EBP.
Based on observation, interview, record review, and facility policy review, the facility failed to ensure staff
wore all required personal protective equipment (PPE) during the provision of care for residents on
enhanced barrier precautions (EBP). This deficient practice affected 1 (Resident #18) of 4 residents
observed during the medication administration task and 1 (Resident #5) of 4 residents sampled as part of
the infection control task.
Findings included:
A facility policy titled, Enhanced Barrier Precautions, revised 06/17/2024, indicated, 'Enhanced Barrier
Precautions' refer to an infection control intervention designed to reduce transmission of multidrug-resistant
organisms that employs targeted gown and gloves use during high contact resident care activities. The
policy specified, b. PPE for enhanced barrier precautions is only necessary when performing high-contact
care activities and indicated High-contact resident care activities included a. Dressing b. Bathing/Shower, d.
Providing hygiene e. Changing linens and g. Device care or use: central lines, urinary catheters, feeding
tubes, tracheostomy/ventilator tubes.
1. An admission Record revealed the facility most recently admitted Resident #18 on 05/05/2023.
