Immediately tell the resident, the resident's doctor, and a family member of situations (injury/decline/room,
etc.) that affect the resident.
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
interview and record review, the facility staff failed to ensure physician (MD) notification was done for one of
nine sampled residents (Resident 1's) change of condition (COC/CIC) by failing to notify MD when
Resident 1 had multiple episodes of refusal of basic care.
This deficient practice had the potential to result in possible delayed provision of necessary care and
services to Resident 1.
Cross Referenced F656
Findings:
A review of Resident 1's admission Record indicated Resident 1 was originally admitted to the facility on
[DATE], and was re-admitted on [DATE] with diagnoses including carcinoma (cancer cells) in the rectum
(final section/ part of the lower gastrointestinal tract [GI tract-organ system of the body from the mouth to
the anus [part of the GI tract where the stool or feces are being eliminated from the body], colostomy
(opening of the large intestine [abdominal area] to the outside of the body for passing of stool and gas) and
abnormalities of gait (ambulation) and mobility.
A review of Resident 1's Minimum Data Set (MDS - a comprehensive standardized assessment and
care-screening tool), dated 12/6/2024, indicated Resident 1 has an intact cognition (mental action or
process of acquiring knowledge and understanding) for daily decision-making and needing moderate
assistance from staff for activities of daily living (ADL-bed mobility, surface transfer, eating, walk in room,
dressing, toileting, and personal hygiene).
A review of Resident 1's medical record indicated missing documentation that Resident 1 had multiple
episodes of refusals of basic care.
During an interview with Certified Nursing Assistant 3 (CNA 3) on 3/25/2025 at 12:59 p.m., CNA 3 stated
that Resident 1 had been refusing basic care. CNA 3 also stated that she (CNA3) notified the charge nurse
via Stop and Watch (a warning tool that identify any change while caring for a resident).
During an interview with CNA 4 on 3/25/2025 at 1:13 p.m., CNA 4 stated that Resident 1 had also been
refusing basic care during the night shift. CNA 4 also stated that he (CNA 4) notified the charge nurse.

to one of three sampled residents (Resident 4) consistent with the resident's needs and professional
standard of care by failing to ensure low air loss (LAL) mattress was set up properly for Resident 4.
Residents Affected - Few
This deficient practice can place Resident 4 at risk of poor wound healing of the current pressure ulcer
(injury to skin and underlying tissue resulting from prolonged pressure on the skin) and possibly
development of a new pressure injury.
Findings:

diagnoses including paraplegia (paralysis of the legs and lower body), diabetes mellitus (DM-a chronic
condition that affects the way the body processes blood sugar [glucose]) and osteomyelitis (bone infection).
A review of Resident 4's Minimum Data Set (MDS-a resident assessment tool), dated 10/21/2024, indicated
Resident 4 was moderately impaired in cognitive skill (thought processes) for daily decision making and
needing one to two-person assistance with staff on activities of daily living (ADLs-bed mobility, transfers,
locomotion on and off the unit, dressing, eating, toilet use, and personal hygiene). Resident 4's MDS
indicated Resident 4 has currently has pressure ulcer, high risk for developing pressure ulcers with
treatment to provide pressure reducing device for bed.
A review of Resident 4's Order Summary Report (OSR), dated 11/13/2024, OSR indicated a physician
(MD) order LAL therapy bed for treatment and management of pressure ulcer and monitor every shift.

lbs.
During an interview with the Director of Staff Development (DSD) on 3/25/2025 at 2:52 p.m., DSD stated
that LAL mattress should be set based on resident's weight.
A review of the facility's policy and procedures (P&P), titled, Support Surface Guidelines reviewed on
12/2024, P&P indicated that Any individual at risk for developing pressure ulcers should be placed on a
redistribution support surface.
