2/10/2026 and 2/11/2026 for one (1) of two (2) sampled residents (Resident 1), when Resident 1 was
coughing, congested and having difficulty swallowing.This deficient practice had the potential for Resident 1
experiencing respiratory distress which can result in hospitalization and/or death.Findings:During a review

the facility on [DATE] and was readmitted on [DATE] with the following but not limited to diagnoses of
chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD-a chronic lung disease causing difficulty in breathing), acute
respiratory distress (a serious condition characterized by rapid/labored breathing, shortness of breath,
gasping, wheezing, and skin/chest retractions), and dysphasia (difficulty swallowing) During a review of
Resident 1's Minimum Data Set (MDS - a resident assessment tool), dated 2/2/2026, the MDS indicated
the resident was severely impaired in cognitive (the ability to understand and make decisions) skills for daily
decision making, The MDS also indicated the resident required substantial/maximal assistance (Helper
does more than half the effort. Helper lifts or holds trunk or limbs and provides more than half the effort)
with eating, oral hygiene, upper body dressing and personal hygiene but was dependent (helper does all of
the effort. Resident does none of the effort to complete the activity. Or, the assistance of 2 or more helpers
is required for the resident to complete the activity) on toileting hygiene, shower/bathe self, lower body
dressing and putting on/taking off footwear.During an interview on 2/26/2026 at 4:20 PM, Resident 1's

stated when a CNA notices a change of condition (COC -a deviation in a person's physical, mental, or
functional health status compared to their baseline) on the resident, the CNAs must fill out a Stop and
Watch Form describing what they see in the resident and report it to the licensed nurse. LVN 1 also stated
when the CNA gives the form to the licensed nurse, the license nurse must sign and acknowledge it.During
an interview on 2/27/2026 at 12:30PM, CNA 3 stated on 2/11/2026 at 7am-3pm shift, CNA 3 observed

experiences a change of condition, the CNAs would have to fill out a Stop and Watch form, give one copy to
the license nurse and give one copy to the DSD. DSD also stated the nurses should acknowledge the Stop
and Watch form that is given to them. DSD stated even if the resident is discharged , the Stop and Watch

Resident 1 and there should be a Stop and Watch form.During a concurrent interview and record review on
2/27/2026 at 1:30PM with Director of Nursing (DON), the facility's Policy and Procedure titled Acute
Condition Changes, revised 3/1028, was reviewed. DON stated per policy, if a resident has congestion, lots
of phlegm, difficulty swallowing and diarrhea, that would be an acute condition change because the
resident cannot breathe properly, it can affect her eating and cause dehydration. DON also stated the CNAs
need to fill out the Stop and Watch form.During a review of the facility's P&P titled Acute Condition
Changes, revised 3/1028, the P&P indicated nursing assistants are encouraged to use the Stop and Watch
Early Warning Tool to communicate subtle changes in the resident to the nurse.
