accommodation of resident needs and
preferences except when to do so would
endanger the health or safety of the resident or
other residents.
This REQUIREMENT is not met as evidenced
by:
Based on observation, interview, and facility
P&P review, the facility failed to ensure four of
four nonsampled residents (Residents A, B, D,
and E) had access to and prompt response to
their call lights.
* Resident E's call light was not answered
timely, resulting in Resident E having an
incontinent episode.
* Residents A, B and D's call lights were not
within their reach, which prevented them from
being able to activate their call lights in the
event they needed to assistance from staff.
These failures had the potential for the

Findings:
Review of the facility's P&P titled Answering
the Call Light revised 10/2010 showed when
the resident is in bed or confined to a chair, the
staff is to ensure the residents' call lights are
within easy reach of the residents.
1. Medical record review for Resident E was
initiated on 2/7/18. Resident E was readmitted
to the facility on 11/9/16.
Review of the History & Physical Exam dated
11/30/17, showed Resident E had the capacity
to understand and make decisions.
On 2/7/18 at 0745 hours, during a facility tour,
Resident E was observed in bed eating
breakfast. Resident E stated she did not think
her call light was working. When asked what
made her say this. Resident E stated when
she pressed her call light, she knew the light
outside her room door turned on; however, she
thought the one at the nurses' station did not
light up. Resident E stated nobody would
come to answer her call light even though she
could hear voices at the nurses' station.
Resident E recalled an incident when she
turned her call light on because she needed to
use the bathroom. No one answered her call
light and she had an accident (incontinent
episode). Resident E stated she decided to
call a family member who lived 10 minutes
away. The family member came and changed
her. When asked how did this make her feel.
Resident E frowned and stated "bad."
2. On 2/7/18 at 0805 hours, Resident D's call
light was observed on the floor on the right side
of his bed. When the resident was asked
where his call bell was, Resident D stated he

On 2/27/18 at 0810 hours, CNA 2 was called to
the room and verified Resident D' call light was
on the floor, out of the resident's reach. CNA 2
verified Resident D was able to use his call

"forgot to put it back after getting her ready for
breakfast." CNA 1 verified Resident A's call
light was not within reach.
On 2/7/18 at 1515 hours, Resident A was

by the foot of her bed. The call light was laying
on the middle of Resident A's bed out of
Resident A's reach.

by:
Based on interview, medical record review, and
facility P&P review, the facility failed to ensure
two of two sampled residents' (Residents 1 and
2) physicians and family were immediately
notified of a change in the residents' conditions.
* The facility failed to notify Resident 1's
physician of severe and continued weight
losses a timely manner, resulting in a delay in
interventions.
* Resident 2 had sustained a fall. There was
an approximately two hours delay in Resident
2's physician and responsible party being
notified Resident 2 had sustained a fall which
resulted in a minor injury. This had the
potential for the resident to have a delay in care
and treatment.

by:
Based on interview and medical record review,
the facility failed to ensure the MDS

Based on interview and medical record review,
the facility failed to develop a comprehensive

This REQUIREMENT is not met as evidenced
by:
Based on interview and medical record review,
the facility failed to ensure one of two sampled
residents (Resident 1) was provided adequate
supervision to prevent falls. Resident 1
sustained three falls in less than two weeks.
The facility failed to conducted 72 hour
neurological assessments as ordered by the
physician and update the resident's plan of
care to address new interventions after each
fall in an attempt to prevent additional falls.
This had the potential to negatively impact the
resident's well-being.
Findings:
According to the facility's P&P titled Assessing
Falls and their Causes revised 10/2010, the
procedures after a fall included nursing staff to
observe for complications of a fall for
approximately 48 hours after a fall, and to
document the findings in the medical record.
Within 24 hours after a fall, the nursing staff will
begin to identify possible or likely causes of the
incident. Documentation when a resident falls
included a completion of a fall risk assessment.
Closed medical record review for Resident 1
was initiated on 2/7/18. Resident 1 was
admitted to the facility on 12/9/17, and was
transferred to the acute care hospital on

identify, implement, monitor, and modify the
interventions specific to Resident 1's needs.
These failures had contributed to a severe
weight loss of 33 pounds in 26 days for
Resident 1.
Findings:
According to the facility's P&P titled Weight
Assessment and Intervention revised 1/12/18,
the nursing staff will measure resident weights
on admission, the morning after admission and
weekly for three weeks thereafter (a total of
four weeks). The threshold for significant
unplanned and undesired weight change will be
based on the following criteria: one week = 3%
weight change is significant; one month =
greater than 5% is severe. An individualized
care plan shall address the following - The
identified causes of weight change;
- Goals and benchmarks for improvement; and
- Time frames and parameters for monitoring
and reassessment.
The dietitian will discuss weight change with
the resident and/or family.

Review of the Nutrition Assessment dated

height (6 feet tall) and his usual body weight
was 190 pounds. Staff documented the
resident's "desired" weight was 183 +/- 5
pounds. His most recent weight was 183
pounds. The goal was for the resident to
consume 70% or more of each meal.
