F 0554 Allow residents to self-administer drugs if determined clinically appropriate. 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, (continued on next page) Any deficiency statement ending with an asterisk (*) denotes a deficiency which the institution may be excused from correcting providing it is determined that other safeguards provide sufficient protection to the patients.

F 0554 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Few 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.

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).

F 0692 Provide enough food/fluids to maintain a resident's health. 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.

F 0692 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Few 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.

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.

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.

According to the MDS, the resident utilized a feeding tube. Resident #18's care plan included a focus area, initiated on 07/08/2024, that indicated the resident was on EBP related to the use of a gastrostomy tube and 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 and giving medical treatments. Resident #18's Medication Review Report, reflecting orders effective on or after 12/17/2024, revealed an order started on 05/24/2024 for EBP due to the use of a gastrostomy tube and history of ESBL.
