F 0605 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Some Prevent the use of unnecessary psychotropic medications or use medications that may restrain a resident's ability to function. Based on interviews and record review, the facility failed to ensure 3 out of 5 sampled residents (Residents 8, 9, and 51) were free from unnecessary psychotropic medications (drugs that affects brain activities associated with mental processes and behavior) when all three residents received psychotropic medications without documented evidence of behavioral (or non-pharmacological) interventions attempted.The employment of non-pharmacological/non-drug interventions allows the facility to minimize the need for psychotropic medications, use the lowest possible dose, or discontinue the medications. 1. A review of Resident 8's clinical record indicated he was admitted to the facility with diagnoses including schizoaffective disorder (mental illness that can affect your thoughts, mood and behavior) and bipolar disorder (a disorder associated with episodes of mood swings ranging from depressive lows to manic highs).A review of Resident 8's physician's orders indicated the following psychotropic medications:a. Lexapro (an antidepressant) 10 milligrams (mg, unit of measurement), give 1 tablet one time a day for depression manifested by sudden angry outbursts such as throwing meal tray, verbal aggressiveness towards staff and others, dated 7/11/25. b. Depakote (a medication for mood disorder) 125 mg, give 2 capsules by mouth three times a day related to bipolar disorder, dated 6/25/25. c. Seroquel (an antipsychotic medication) 300 mg, give 1 tablet by mouth at bedtime related to schizoaffective disorder manifested by inappropriate sexual behavior to female staff, dated 6/25/25.A review of Resident 8's clinical record indicated no documented evidence of non-drug interventions (such as redirection, activities, music therapy, emotional support, pain assessment, etc.) being implemented/attempted for the resident, or that they were contraindicated.During a concurrent interview and record review with the Infection Preventionist (IP 1) on 8/27/2025 at 1:06 p.m., she reviewed Resident 8's clinical record and stated, It's not there. She explained that the staff used to document these interventions on the medication administration record, but the previous director of nursing (DON) cleaned up the documentation and removed all these requirements.2. A review of Resident 9's clinical record indicated she was admitted to the facility with diagnoses including unspecified dementia (impaired ability to remember, think, or make decisions that interferes with doing everyday activities) and depression.A review of Resident 9's physician's orders included an order, dated 5/29/25, for mirtazapine (an antidepressant medication) 15 milligrams (mg, unit of measurement), 0.5 tablet at bedtime for depression manifested by poor meal intake.A review of Resident 9's clinical record indicated there was no documented evidence the facility implemented behavioral (or non-pharmacological) interventions (such as offering appetizing food or regular meal intervals, protein shakes, staff encouragement, emotional health support, etc.) before or during the use of mirtazapine.During a concurrent interview and record review with the DON and IP 1 on 8/28/25 at 1:16 p.m., IP 1 confirmed there was no documented evidence the facility implemented the non-drug interventions prior to today.3. A review of Resident 51's clinical record indicated she was admitted to the facility with diagnoses including anxiety and schizophrenia (a chronic, severe mental disorder that affects the way a person thinks, acts, expresses emotions, perceives reality, and relates to others).A review of Resident 51's physician's orders included the following:a.

Facility staff should take a holistic approach to behavior management that involves a thorough assessment of underlying causes of behaviors and individualized person-centered non-drug and pharmaceutical interventions. a. Facility should involve the resident or the resident's representative(s) in the discussion of potential non-drug and medication interventions to address management of behaviors and the involvement should be documented in the resident's medical record. b. Psychotropic medications may be used to address behaviors only if non-drug approaches and interventions were attempted prior to their use.

F 0658 Ensure services provided by the nursing facility meet professional standards of quality. Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Based on interview and record review, the facility failed to ensure the nursing practices that met professional standards for 3 out of 31 sampled residents (Resident 49, 57, and 74) when:1.There was no blood pressure (BP) assessment prior to Lasix (a medication to treat high BP and other conditions) administration for Resident 49.2. Pain medication orders were not followed as prescribed for Residents 57 and 74.3. Elevated ammonia level (toxic waste product produced by the body's metabolism of protein) was not communicated with the physician for Resident 57.The failures resulted in medications not being given as ordered, and inadequately monitored or untreated medical conditions for the residents.1. A review of Resident 49's clinical record indicated he was admitted to the facility with diagnoses including congestive heart failure (CHF, long-term condition that happens when your heart cannot pump blood well enough to give your body a normal supply).A review of his physician's orders included an order for: Lasix 20 milligrams (mg, unit of measurement), give 1 tablet by mouth one time a day for CHF HOLD FOR SBP [systolic BP] <100. This indicated to hold the Lasix if the SBP was below 100 (normal SBP is 120).A review of Resident 49's August 2025 Medication Administration Record (MAR) indicated the nursing staff has been giving the medication daily; however, there was no corresponding BP each time they administered it.A review of the Vital Signs section in Resident 49's clinical record indicated the nursing staff only documented BP assessment 7 times from 6/8/25 to 8/18/25 (a period over 2 months): on 6/8/25, 6/11/25, 6/29/25, 7/6/25, 7/27/25, and 8/18/25.During an interview with Resident 49 on 8/27/25 at 4:31 p.m., when asked whether the nursing staff take his BP on a daily basis, Resident 49 stated, Yes. He further stated he would not take Lasix unless his BP was above 100.During a concurrent interview and record review with the Director of Nursing (DON) and the Infection Preventionist (IP 1) on 08/28/25 at 1:20 p.m., they verified there was no documentation that Resident 49's BP was obtained before Lasix administration. IP 1 explained that the order was not entered correctly for the BP to be input in the computer system. They acknowledged the computer system must require the input for staff to remember to take the BP before administering the medications, especially for those residents who could not speak for themselves.A review of the facility's policy and procedures (P&P) titled Medication and Treatment Administration, updated 5/2023, indicated, Licensed nurse shall perform tests and taking of vital signs, as indicated or required by specific medication administration or treatment administration. Results of test and taking of vital signs shall be recorded in the resident's clinical record.2a. A review of Resident 74's physician's orders indicated an order for morphine sulfate (a potent narcotic for pain) 20 mg/milliliters (mL, unit of volume), give 0.25 mL by mouth every 6 hours as needed for severe/breakthrough pain, dated 8/8/25.A review of Resident 74's August 2025 MAR indicated, on 5 occasions, the nursing staff administered the morphine when the resident's pain score was zero (scoring range, 0-10; 0 = no pain, 10 = worst pain possible).During a concurrent interview and record review with IP 1 on 8/27/25 at 12:02 p.m., she stated severe pain scale is from 7 to 10. She reviewed Resident 74's August 2025 MAR and confirmed the staff administered the morphine while the resident had zero pain, inconsistent with the physician's order.2b. A review of Resident 57's clinical record indicated he had a physician's order for Ultram (a controlled medication for pain) 50 mg, give 1 tablet every 6 hours as needed for moderate to severe pain, dated 7/2/25.A review of Resident 57's July 2025 MAR indicated the nursing staff administered the Ultram dose 15 times during this month. Of the 15 times, 9 had the pain score of zero and 1 had pain score of NA (not applicable). During a concurrent interview and record review with the DON and IP 1 on 8/28/25 at 12:57 p.m., both staff verified this finding and stated that the Ultram should not be given for a pain score of zero. They acknowledged the medication was not given as ordered.A review of Residents Affected - Some (continued on next page) FORM CMS-2567 (02/99) Previous Versions Obsolete Event ID: Facility ID: 056463 If continuation sheet Page 6 of 30 Printed: 05/15/2026 Form Approved OMB No. 0938-0391 Department of Health & Human Services Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services STATEMENT OF DEFICIENCIES AND PLAN OF CORRECTION (X1) PROVIDER/SUPPLIER/CLIA IDENTIFICATION NUMBER: (X2) MULTIPLE CONSTRUCTION 056463 B.

F 0693 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Few Ensure that feeding tubes are not used unless there is a medical reason and the resident agrees; and provide appropriate care for a resident with a feeding tube. Based on observation, interview, and record review, the facility failed to provide care according to the facility's policy and procedures (P&P) for one of one resident (Resident 1) receiving medications via the gastrostomy tube (aka G-tube, a tube inserted through the abdomen that delivers nutrition and medications directly to the stomach). The nursing staff did not verify tube placement and check residual volume (the amount of fluid contents remaining in the stomach) prior to administering medications. In addition, the nursing staff administered the medications by pushing through the tube instead of allowing them to go down by gravity.The failures posed a risk for complications associated with enteral feeding, including aspiration (inhalation of foreign material into the lungs) due to undetected tube displacement, tube dislodgement from improper medication administration, and potential for gastrointestinal symptoms such as nausea, vomiting, and abdominal pain.During a medication pass observation on 8/26/25 at 8:55 a.m., Registered Nurse (RN) 1 was observed preparing 11 medications for Resident 1. The medications included 1 eye drop, 1 inhalation medication, 1 powder medication, and 8 solid medications that were prepared 10 cups. After finished, she brought all 11 medications along with 3 large cups of water and to Resident 1's bedside. On 8/26/25 at 9:31 a.m. at the resident's bedside, RN 1 was observed adding water to each medication cup to dilute the medications. She turned off Resident's 1's tube feeding pump, attached a 60-mililiter (mL, unit of measurement) syringe to the resident's G-tube, and started administering the medications. First, by filling the syringe with about 30 mL of water, she pushed it into the tube to flush the tubing, then she drew up each diluted medication into the syringe and pushed it into the tube with flushing of water in between the medications. RN 1 did a final flushing of the tube by pushing about 50 mL of water. During the process, water and medication liquid was observed seeping out of the tube and onto the resident's abdomen. RN 1 wiped the excess fluid off the resident's abdomen several times with tissues.During an interview on 8/26/25 at 10:03 a.m. with RN 1, when asked about checking tube placement and residual volume prior to medication administration, RN 1 responded, We have to check tube placement first, yes and check the placement with the stethoscope. She stated, I forgot. When questioned about the seeping of liquid from the G-tube and pushing water and diluted medications through the tube, RN 1 acknowledged she needed to pour in the fluids and diluted medications by gravity. During an interview with the Director of Nursing (DON) on 8/26/25 at 12:18 p.m., she stated nurses need flush and administer the medication via gravity. She added, If [the medications are] not prepared properly the tube may clog. The DON stated the nurses are to check tube placement with the stethoscope and check if there is residual volume before administering medications through the feeding tube.A review of Resident's 1, Medication Administration Record (MAR), on 8/26/25, indicated a physician's order, dated 4/2/25: Enteral Feed Order every shift verify tube placement before and after feeding and before administration of medications.A review of the facility's policy and procedure titled Administering Medications through an Enteral Tube, updated 5/2023, indicated, 8. This procedure is contraindicated if the tube is obstructed or improperly positioned, . or if bowel sounds are absent. The Steps in the Procedure are: 17. Confirm placement of the feeding tube. 18. If you suspect improper tube positioning, do not administer feeding or medication. Notify the Charge Nurse or Physician. 19. Check gastric residual volume (GRV) to assess for tolerance of enteral feeding. 20. When correct tube placement and acceptable GRV have been verified, flush tubing with 15-20 mL warm sterile water (or prescribed amount.) . 23. Reattach syringe (without plunger) to the end of the tubing. 24. Administer medication by gravity flow.a.

Lovenox (an anticoagulant to treat blood clots) was not available for administration for Resident 34 on 6 occasions since May 2025. This had the potential for the resident to develop blood clots.2. Glipizide (a medication for diabetes) as not accurately administered as per manufacturer's specifications for 2 residents (Residents 9 and 51). This resulted in the residents not receiving the optimized therapeutic effect of the medication.3. Controlled medications were not reconciled when they were signed out of the controlled drug record (CDR, an accountability sheet of controlled medications) but not documented on the medication administration record (MAR) for 4 out of 5 residents (Residents 74, 65, 81, and 23). This resulted in facility not having accurate accountability and the potential for abuse/loss of controlled medications.4. Discontinued controlled substance medications for residents (Residents 41,74, 56 and 18) were not removed timely in 2 of 2 medication carts inspected. This failure had the potential for medication errors and abuse/loss of controlled medications.5. There were duplicate narcotic emergency drug kits (E-kit, containing scheduled II medications-controlled substance) in Station 1 Medication Room. This failure had the potential for drugs to be diverted.6. A total of 9 discontinued controlled medications for residents (Residents 6, 76, 53, 35, and 8) were stored in Station 1 Medication Room where they were accessible to multiple staff members. This failure had the potential for medication errors and loss/abuse of controlled substances. 7. Nursing staff did not consistently document E-kit checks between nursing shift changes. This failure had the potential for emergency medications to be unavailable to residents in need, and/or narcotic e-kits to be lost or diverted.8. An oral medication E-kit was opened but not replaced timely. This failure had the potential for medications not to be available to meet the needs of residents. 1.

A review of Resident 57's medical record indicated Resident 57 was admitted to the facility with diagnoses that include: alcoholic liver disease (a condition of liver damage) and portal hypertension (elevated pressure in the portal vein, commonly caused by liver disease). Resident 57's Minimum Data Set (MDS, a federally mandated resident assessment tool), dated 5/29/25, indicated Resident 57 has no cognitive impairment.A review of Resident 57's medical record indicated Resident 57 had the following physician order: - Lactulose 10 grams (gm, unit of measurement)/ 15 milliliters (mL, unit of volume), give 45 mL by mouth three times a day for constipation Hold if more than 3 bowel movements daily, dated 11/17/24 (9 months ago).During an interview on 8/27/25 at 9:27 a.m. with Resident 57, when asked about the lactulose medication, Resident 57 said, Oh, that is for my liver. The resident added he has been on the medication for four years.During an interview and record review with the MDS Coordinator (MDS C) on 8/27/25 at 1:15 p.m., when asked about indication for Resident 57's lactulose, MDS C stated it is for constipation. Upon further review of Resident 57 ‘s clinical record, the MDSC stated the hospital Discharge summary, dated [DATE], indicated the lactulose was used for alcoholic cirrhosis with portal hypertension. She confirmed the facility had the wrong indication for Resident 57's lactulose. During a concurrent interview and record review on 8/28/25 at 12:57 p.m. with the DON and the Infection Preventionist (IP 1), when asked about the medication monitoring for lactulose (such as labs and liver disease), IP 1 stated monitoring had not been done as the lactulose had the wrong indication.During a telephone interview with the CP on 8/28/25 at 2:40 p.m., the CP stated the dose of 45 mL three times a day, is higher than usual for constipation; the medication is for hepatic encephalophagy (a condition of liver damage, associated with a buildup of toxins). When asked whether she identified this wrong indication as an irregularity and reported to the facility, she stated, No. She stated she just started servicing the facility in June this year, and her focus was on psychotropic medications and not on this.2. A review of the Package Insert (information about a drug and its use) for glipizide, dated 9/2008, indicated glipizide should be given approximately 30 minutes before a meal to achieve the greatest reduction in postprandial hyperglycemia [rise in blood sugar after a meal].A review of Resident 9's clinical record indicated she had a physician's order, dated 5/28/25, for glipizide 5 mg, give 1 tablet two times a day before meals for diabetes.
