Ensure services provided by the nursing facility meet professional standards of quality.
Level of Harm - Minimal harm
or potential for actual harm
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
observation, interview and record review, the facility failed to ensure services provided met professional
standards of quality for one of six sampled residents (Resident 4) when Resident 4 was administered 4.5
L/min (liters-unit of measurement)/min (minute) of oxygen via Nasal cannula (NC- plastic device used to
deliver supplemental oxygen) instead of 2L/min of oxygen per physician's order.
Residents Affected - Few
This failure had the potential to put Resident 4 at risk to oxygen toxicity (a lung damage that happens from
breathing too much supplemental oxygen; it can cause coughing and trouble breathing; in severe cases it
can even cause death).
Findings:
During a Review of Resident 4's admission Record, (AR- a document that provides resident contact details,
a brief medical history, level of functioning, preferences, and wishes), dated 5/12/25, the AR indicated
Resident 4 was admitted to the facility on [DATE], with diagnoses which included Congestive Heart Failure
(CHF- weakness in the heart where fluid accumulates in the lungs), Hypertension (high blood pressure),
Dyspnea (shortness of breath, difficulty breathing), and Asthma (a chronic lung condition making it difficult
to breathe).
During a concurrent observation and interview on 5/12/25 at 12:30 p.m., with the Infection Preventionist
(IP), inside Resident 4's room, Resident 4 was lying in her bed, sleeping and with supplemental oxygen via
nasal cannula receiving 4.5L/min. IP stated, she needs to check the physician order to verify if Resident 4
was supposed to receive 4.5L/min of supplemental oxygen.
During a concurrent interview and record review on 5/12/25 at 12:45 p.m. with the IP, Resident 4's
Physician Order Summary (POS) was reviewed. The POS indicated , . Oxygen 2LPM (liters per minute) via
Nasal Cannula Continuously . Order Date 4/23/25 . The IP stated, Resident 4 current oxygen setting was
incorrect and could potentially cause harm if not corrected immediately. The IP stated, the higher flow of
oxygen could have a negative effect on Resident 4's overall health. The IP stated, she expect the licensed
nurses to routinely check the oxygen setting during medication pass and as needed, and it was not done.
During a concurrent interview and record review on 5/12/25 at 2:04 p.m. with the Minimum Data Set Nurse
(MDSN), Resident 4's Progress Note (PN) was reviewed. The MDSN stated, she was unable to find any
documentation indicating Resident 4 ' s oxygen level dropped below 90% (percent- unit of measurement)
and a physician ' s order to increase the oxygen delivery from 2LPM to 4.5LPM. The MDSN stated,
Resident 4 could get hurt from receiving too much oxygen.

Provide and implement an infection prevention and control program.
Level of Harm - Minimal harm
or potential for actual harm
Based on observation, interview, and record review, the facility failed to maintain an effective infection
control program for three of six sampled residents (Residents 3, 5 and 6) when:
Residents Affected - Some
1. Resident 5 ' s oxygen concentrator (a device that concentrates the oxygen from the ambient air) was
being used without a filter.
2. Resident 3 and Resident 6 ' s oxygen concentrator filters were covered with dust and lint.
These failures placed Residents 3, 5 and 6 at an increased risk to develop respiratory and
healthcare-associated infections.
Findings:
1. During a review of Resident 5's admission Record (AR, a document that provides resident contact
details, a brief medical history, level of functioning, preferences, and wishes), dated 5/12/25, the AR
indicated, Resident 5 was admitted from an acute care hospital on 4/27/25 to the facility, with diagnoses
that included Congestive Heart Failure (CHF- weakness in the heart where fluid accumulates in the lungs),
Hypertension (high blood pressure), Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD- is a chronic
inflammatory lung disease that causes obstructed airflow of the lungs), and Generalized Muscle Weakness.
During a review of Resident 5's Order Summary Report (OSR), dated 5/12/25, the OSR indicated, . Order
Summary . Oxygen at 2 LPM (liters per minute- unit of measurement) via nasal cannula (a device used to
deliver supplemental oxygen) . Order Date 4/27/25 .
During a review of Resident 5's Nursing Care Plan (CP), dated 5/8/25, the CP indicated, . [Resident 5] has
COPD . Interventions/Tasks . Give oxygen therapy as ordered by the physician . Date Initiated: 4/27/25 .
During an observation on 5/12/25, at 11:58 a.m., inside Resident 5 ' s room. Resident 5 was lying in bed,
asleep and had an oxygen cannula connected to an oxygen concentrator. The oxygen was being given at
2L/min continuously. The oxygen concentrator filter was operating without the filter installed on the left side
of the machine.
During a concurrent observation and interview, on 5/12/25, at 12:35 p.m., inside Resident 5 ' s room with
the Infection Preventionist (IP), the IP looked at Resident 5 ' s oxygen concentrator and stated the oxygen
concentrator was operating without a dust filter and it should. The IP stated, Resident 5 ' s respiratory
condition could worsen. The IP, stated maintaining the cleanliness of oxygen concentrator was the
responsibility of the licensed nurses.
During an interview on 5/12/25, at 2:13 p.m., with the Director of Nursing (DON), the DON stated using an
oxygen concentrator without a filter was not acceptable and could potentially cause residents to become ill.
The DON stated the purpose of the oxygen concentrator was to improve resident's oxygen level. The DON
stated she expects the oxygen concentrator to be inspected and cleaned twice a week, and as needed for
the safety and well-being of all residents receiving oxygen. The DON stated residents using dirty oxygen
concentrators could have respiratory infection such as Pneumonia (lung infection caused by bacteria) and
Bronchitis (inflammation of the airways).
