Provide basic life support, including CPR, prior to the arrival of emergency medical personnel , subject to
physician orders and the resident’s advance directives.
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
observation, interview, and record review, the facility failed to provide immediate and continuous
cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR, emergency lifesaving procedure, consisting of a combination of chest
compressions, mouth-to-mouth, or mechanical breathing [using a device to help someone breaths],
performed when the heart stops beating or beats ineffectively and/or to restore breathing) to one of three
sampled residents (Resident 1) who had a full code status (resident ' s heart stopped beating and/or the
resident stopped breathing, the resident or their representative wishes for all lifesaving procedures to be
provided to keep them alive) by failing to ensure:
1. On [DATE] at 5:45 am (as indicated in the facility video recording), Registered Nurse Supervisor 1 (RNS
1) and Certified Nursing Assistant 1 (CNA 1) did not start CPR after RNS 1 and CNA 1 found Resident 1 on
the floor, in Resident 1 ' s room, unresponsive (not reacting to anything) with a weak pulse (movement of
blood caused by the beating of the heart and that can be felt by touching certain parts of the body) and not
breathing.
2. Licensed Vocational Nurse 1 (LVN 1), CNA 1, and CNA 2 started CPR on [DATE], after LVN 1, CNA 1,
and CNA 2 put Resident 1 in bed, and found Resident 1 without a pulse and not breathing.
3. Nine of 61 CNAs (CNA 1, CNA 5, CNA 6, CNA 7, CNA 8, CNA 9, CNA 10, CNA 11, and CNA 12) and
three of 35 LVNs (LVN 3, LVN 4, and LVN 5) did not have current CPR certification cards.
As a result, on [DATE] at 6:30 am, Resident 1 was pronounced (noticeable or certain) dead after the
Paramedics (emergency medical technicians [EMT] who provide emergency medical services) provided
unsuccessful CPR to Resident 1 in Resident 1 ' s room.
On [DATE] at 5:35 pm, while onsite at the facility, an Immediate Jeopardy situation (IJ, a situation in which
the facility ' s noncompliance with one or more requirements of participation has caused, or is likely to
cause, serious injury, harm, impairment, or death to a resident) was identified. The surveyor notified the
Administrator (ADM) regarding the facility ' s failure to provide immediate and continuous CPR to Resident
1 who had full code status on [DATE] at 5:45 am, and the risk for 87 other residents who were residing in
the facility with full code status not receiving CPR when those residents ' hearts stopped beating and/or
when they stopped breathing. The IJ was called in the presence of the facility ' s Administrator (ADM).
On [DATE] at 3:47 pm, the facility submitted an acceptable Plan of Action (POA, a list of steps taken to
correct the deficient practices). While onsite at the facility, the surveyor verified and confirmed the facility ' s
implementations of the POA through observation, interview, and record review.

(DON), and the Quality Assurance Consultant (QAC).
The IJ Removal Plan, dated [DATE] included the following:
a. On [DATE], the DON gave in-services and educated the facility ' s staff (in general) on indications for
CPR and the importance of performing CPR immediately to residents who required CPR until the
paramedics took over. The in-services included: calling for assistance, activating the facility ' s emergency
response system by paging Code Blue (an emergency code that used to indicate a patient/resident
requiring immediate cardiopulmonary resuscitation), retrieving the emergency cart [a cart stocked with
emergency medical equipment, supplies, and drugs for use by medical personnel especially during efforts
to resuscitate (to revive from apparent death or from unconsciousness) a patient experiencing cardiac
arrest], initiating CPR, and continuing CPR until relieved by the paramedics or when the resident (in
general) demonstrated obvious signs of life.
b. On [DATE], the ADM contacted a certified Basic Life Support (BLS, certified to teach adult and child
CPR, automated external defibrillator [AED, delivers an electric shock through the chest to the heart when it
detected an abnormal rhythm and changed the rhythm back to normal], and First Aid classes) instructor to
provide CPR reeducation to nursing staff including all CNAs, LVNs, and Registered Nurses (RN)s.
c. On [DATE], the facility checked CPR certification cards for all nursing staff and identified eight of 61
CNAs and three of 35 LVNs did not have current CPR certification cards.
d. On [DATE], the DON and the RNS 3 identified 87 of 123 residents had full code status.
e. On [DATE], the certified BLS instructor conducted CPR training to nursing staff.
f. On [DATE], CNA 2, LVN 1, and RNS 1 attended the CPR training provided by the certified BLS instructor.
The facility scheduled a one-to-one CPR training for CNA 1 as soon as CNA 1 was available to attend
(unspecified date).
g. On [DATE], after the CPR classes were completed, the facility checked CPR certification cards
(successfully completion of a designated first aid course in an authorized hospital, health, or training
organization) for all 110-nursing staff and identified four of 61 CNAs (CNA 1, CNA 7, CNA 10, and CNA 12)
did not have a current CPR card.
h. On [DATE], the four CNAs without a current CPR card, which included CNA 1, were removed from the
work schedule (include the hours of a day and the days of a work week that an employee is required to
work) until the CNAs attended the next CPR training scheduled on [DATE].
i. On [DATE], the Assistant Director of Nursing (ADON) and the Social Services Director (SSD) updated the
code status for all 123 residents and posted the list in each medication cart (MC, used to transport
medications from patient room to patient room) for easy identification of code statuses.
j. The DON and/or designee will conduct Mock Codes (pretend emergency situations in which a pretend
patient has no pulse and/or not breathing and had to be provided CPR) twice a year and as needed.
k. The Assistant Director of Staff Development (ADSD) would check CPR certification cards for

admitted Resident 1 to the facility on [DATE] and readmitted Resident 1 on [DATE] with diagnoses which
included end stage renal disease (ESRD, a medical condition in which a person ' s kidneys permanently
stop working and can no longer clean waste products from the blood and send waste products out of the
body in urine).
During a review of Resident 1 ' s Physician Orders for Life-Sustaining Treatment (POLST, a written medical
order from a physician, nurse practitioner, or a physician assistant which specifies what a patient ' s
lifesaving treatment wishes are), dated [DATE], the POLST indicated Resident 1 had full code status and
wanted all lifesaving procedures to be provided to Resident 1 if Resident 1 ' s heart stopped and/or if
Resident 1 stopped breathing.
During a review of Resident 1 ' s History and Physical (H&P, physician ' s clinical evaluation and
examination of the resident), dated [DATE], the H&P indicated Resident 1 had the capacity to understand
and make decisions.
During a review of Resident 1 ' s Minimum Data Set (MDS, a standardized assessment and care planning
tool), dated [DATE], the MDS indicated Resident 1 required touching or steadying assistance with toileting,
dressing and personal hygiene (includes combing hair, shaving, washing/drying face and hands). The MDS
also indicated Resident 1 required partial assistance to transfer to and from bed to chair/wheelchair, and to

During an interview on [DATE] at 4:40 pm with the DON, the DON stated the DON expected nursing staff
(in general) to immediately assess an unresponsive resident and request for additional help as needed. The
DON stated when Resident 1 was on the floor, unresponsive and not breathing, staff (in general) needed to
provide Resident 1 with oxygen. The DON stated once Resident 1 no longer had a pulse, then CPR needed
to be started right away. The DON stated once CPR started, chest compressions needed to be continued
until the EMTs, or another person(s) took over. The DON stated it was important to start CPR immediately
to increase a resident ' s chances of recovery. The DON stated all nursing staff were required to have a
current CPR certification card.
During a review of the facility ' s CPR list of nursing staff without current CPR certification cards, dated
[DATE], the list indicated ten of 61 CNAs (CNA 1, CNA 5, CNA 6, CNA 7, CNA 8, CNA 9, CNA 10, CNA 12,
and CNA 13) and three of 35 LVNs (LVN 3, LVN 4, and LVN 5) did not have current CPR certification cards.
During a review of the facility ' s policy and procedure (P&P) titled, Emergency Procedure –
Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation, dated [DATE], the P&P indicated, If an individual (resident, visitor, or staff
member) is found unresponsive and not breathing normally, a licensed staff member who is certified in
CPR/BLS shall initiate CPR unless it is known that a Do Not Resuscitate (DNR) order that specifically
prohibits CPR and/or external defibrillation exists for that individual, or there are obvious signs of
irreversible death. The P&P indicated the facility will provide periodic Mock Codes (simulations of an actual
cardiac arrest) for training purposes. The P&P indicated, If an individual is found unresponsive, briefly
assess for abnormal or absence of breathing. If sudden cardiac arrest is likely, begin CPR: a. Instruct a staff
member to activate the emergency response system (code) and call 911; b. Verify or instruct a staff
member to verify the DNR or code status of the individual; c. Initiate the basic life support (BLS) sequence
of events. The BLS sequence of events is referred to as ' C-A-B ' (chest compressions, airway, breathing).
Chest compressions: a. Following initial assessment, begin CPR with chest compressions. Minimize
interruptions in chest compressions. All rescuers trained or not, should provide chest compressions to
victims of cardiac arrest. Trained rescuers should also provide ventilations (to supply oxygen to the patient's
lungs). Continue with CPR/BLS until emergency medical personnel arrive.
A review of the American Heart Association CRP & First Aid Emergency Cardiovascular Care website
titled, Algorithms, dated 2023, the website indicated for adults, verify scene safety, check for
responsiveness, shoutout for nearby help, activate emergency response system via mobile device (if
appropriate), get AED and emergency equipment (or send someone to do so). The website indicated, look
for no breathing or only gasping and check pulse (simultaneously) and if pulse is felt within 10 seconds with
no normal breathing, then to provide rescue breathing, one (1) breath every six (6) seconds or

**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
observation, interview, and record review, the facility failed to ensure Registered Nurse Supervisor 1 (RNS
1), Licensed Vocational Nurse 1 (LVN 1), Certified Nursing Assistant 1 (CNA 1), and CNA 2 had the
competency (the capability to apply or use the knowledge, skills, and abilities required to successfully
perform tasks in the work setting) to provide cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR, emergency lifesaving
procedure, consisting of chest compressions and mouth-to-mouth or mechanical breaths, performed when
the heart stops beating or beats ineffectively and/or to restore breathing) and to recognize when to provide
CPR when:
1. On [DATE] at 5:45 am (as indicated in the video recording), Registered Nurse Supervisor 1 (RNS 1) and
Certified Nursing Assistant 1 (CNA 1) did not start CPR after RNS 1 and CNA 1 found Resident 1 on the
floor, in Resident 1 ' s room, unresponsive (not reacting to anything) with a weak pulse (movement of blood
caused by the beating of the heart and that can be felt by touching certain parts of the body) and not
breathing.
2. On [DATE], Licensed Vocational Nurse 1 (LVN 1), CNA 1, and CNA 2 did not start CPR after LVN 1, CNA
1, and CNA 2 put Resident 1 in bed, and found Resident 1 without a pulse and not breathing.
3. RNS 1 ' s, LVN 1 ' s, CNA 1 ' s, and CNA 2 ' s competency to provide CPR and to recognize when to
provide CPR was not evaluated upon hire and/or yearly.
These failures resulted in Resident 1, who had full code status (means if the resident ' s heart stopped
beating and/or the resident stopped breathing, the resident or their representative wishes for all lifesaving
procedures to be provided to keep them alive), to die on [DATE] at 6:30 am, after unsuccessful CPR was
provided by paramedics (emergency medical technicians [EMT] who provide emergency medical services)
in Resident 1 ' s room.
These failures also had the potential to result in 87 residents in the facility with full code status to not be
provided CPR if their heart stopped beating and/or if they stopped breathing.

Findings:
During a review of Resident 1 ' s admission Record, the admission Record indicated the facility readmitted
Resident 1 on [DATE] with diagnoses which included end stage renal disease (ESRD, a medical condition
in which a person ' s kidneys permanently stop working and can no longer clean waste products from the
blood and send waste products out of the body in urine).
During a review of Resident 1 ' s History and Physical (H&P, physician ' s clinical evaluation and
examination of the resident), dated [DATE], the H&P indicated Resident 1 had the capacity to understand
and make decisions.
During a review of Resident 1 ' s Minimum Data Set (MDS, a standardized assessment and care planning
tool), dated [DATE], the MDS indicated Resident 1 required touching or steadying assistance with toileting,
dressing and personal hygiene (includes combing hair, shaving, washing/drying face and

got to Resident 1 ' s room, LVN 1 found Resident 1 was lying on the floor and CNA 1 was standing around
inside the room and CNA 1 was not performing CPR. LVN 1 stated LVN 1 did not start CPR after LVN 1
found Resident 1 on the floor because LVN 1 left Resident 1 ' s room to ask RNS 1 what LVN 1 was
supposed to do. LVN 1 stated LVN 1 went back inside Resident 1 ' s room with CNA 2, and LVN 1, CNA 1,
and CNA 2 put Resident 1 back in bed. LVN 1 stated LVN 1 realized Resident 1 did not have a pulse after
Resident 1 was in bed. LVN 1 stated LVN 1 started chest compressions on Resident 1 until the paramedics
arrived and the EMTs told LVN 1 to stop CPR. LVN 1 stated from what LVN 1 remembered from CPR
training, chest compressions had to be performed immediately once a person stopped breathing and had
no pulse.

neck closer to the rescuer). RNS 1 stated Resident 1 ' s pulse was weak and the rise and fall (describes the
physical action of breathing) of Resident 1 ' s chest was hard to notice. RNS 1 stated Resident 1 did not
respond nor say anything when RNS 1 spoke to or shook Resident 1 and Resident 1 ' s eyes remained
closed. RNS 1 stated RNS 1 left CNA 1 in the room with Resident 1, and RNS 1 left Resident 1 ' s room to
called 911. RNS 1 stated RNS 1 called a code blue and found LVN 1 and told LVN 1 to provide CPR to
Resident 1. RNS 1 stated, RNS 1 did not start CPR because Resident 1 was still warm and RNS 1 was
ablet to feel a faint (weak) pulse. RNS 1 stated, Resident 1 was yawning (uncontrolled opening of the mouth
and taking a long, deep breath of air), meaning Resident 1 was still alive. RNS 1 stated when RNS 1 went
back to Resident 1 ' s room, Resident 1 was in bed and LVN 1 was performing compressions on Resident 1
' s chest. RNS 1 stated It was important to start CPR right away to save the patient.
During a phone interview on [DATE] at 9:45 am with CNA 1, CNA 1 stated when CNA 1 walked inside
Resident 1 ' s room to answer Resident 1 ' s call light (device used by a resident to signal their need for
