facility must establish and maintain identical
policies and practices regarding transfer,
discharge, and the provision of services under
the State plan for all residents regardless of
payment source.
§483.10(b) Exercise of Rights.
The resident has the right to exercise his or her
rights as a resident of the facility and as a
citizen or resident of the United States.
§483.10(b)(1) The facility must ensure that the
resident can exercise his or her rights without
interference, coercion, discrimination, or
reprisal from the facility.
§483.10(b)(2) The resident has the right to be
free of interference, coercion, discrimination,
and reprisal from the facility in exercising his or
her rights and to be supported by the facility in
the exercise of his or her rights as required

This REQUIREMENT is not met as evidenced
by:
Based on observation, interview, and review of
facility documents, the facility failed to ensure
one of 84 sampled residents (Resident 46) was
treated with respect when personal information
was posted on the wall by his bedside.
This failure increased the risk for psychosocial
distress, humiliation, and embarrassment.
Findings:
Resident 46 was admitted to the facility in 2018
with diagnoses which included paralysis
(inability to move) of the right side.

date of discharge from the facility.
(v) The terms of an admission contract by or on
behalf of an individual seeking admission to the
facility must not conflict with the requirements
of these regulations.
This REQUIREMENT is not met as evidenced
by:
Based on interview, record review, and facility
policy review, the facility failed to provide a
written Notice of Medicare Non-Coverage
(NOMNC-a notice that informs the residents
and their representatives of the termination of
services) and a Skilled Nursing Facility
Advance Beneficiary Notice of Non-Coverage
(SNF ABN-a notice providing information to
residents and their representatives what
services Medicare will not pay and what the
resident will assume responsibility) to two of 84
sampled residents (Resident 88 and Resident
85) when Resident 88's and Resident 85's
Medicare Part A (a government health
insurance covering hospitalization) services
ended and they remained in the facility with
remaining benefit days.
This failure placed Resident 88, Resident 85,
and their representatives at risk of not being
informed of their responsibility to pay for any
services received after their Medicare Part A
coverage ended, not given the opportunity to
exercise their right to make informed decision
regarding their financial liability options, and
experiencing financial hardship related to noncovered services received.

residents (Resident 93), when Licensed Nurse
(LN) 4 did not report, to facility administration,

During an interview with Resident 93 on
11/5/19, during the initial screening, Resident
93 spoke of an event which occurred over the
previous weekend. Resident 93 explained she
waited for CNA 2 to provide care and described
what occurred when CNA 2 entered her room.
Resident 93 stated, "I asked her name. She
said she didn't have to tell me. She was very
abrupt ...I reported it to my nurse [LN 4] ...I
think it was day before yesterday ...verbally

why my face was so red. I pointed to the
CNA..."
During an interview with LN 4 on 11/8/19, at

complete with appeal rights, to two of 84
sampled residents (Resident 76 and Resident
119), the residents' representatives, and the
local Long-Term Care Ombudsman (patient
advocate) when Resident 76 and Resident 119
were transferred/discharged to the local
emergency room (ER).
This failure placed Resident 76, Resident 119,
and their representatives at potential risk of not
knowing their transfer/discharge appeal rights
which included contacting the local Long-Term
Care (LTC) Ombudsman and to not be
protected in the event of an inappropriate
transfer or discharge.
Findings:
Review of Resident 76's clinical record
revealed, he was transferred to the local ER on
10/12/19, due to difficulty breathing. There was
no documented evidence in Resident 76's
clinical record that a written transfer/discharge
form was provided to Resident 76 and/or his
representative.
Review of Resident 119's clinical record
revealed, she was transferred to the local ER
on 10/14/19, due to lethargy
(unresponsiveness). There was no
documented evidence in Resident 119's clinical
record that a written transfer/discharge form
was provided to Resident 119 and/or her
representative.
In an interview with Licensed Nurse (LN) 5, on
11/7/19, at 8:34 a.m., she confirmed, a copy of
the notice was not given to Resident 76 and
Resident 119, nor the residents'
representatives. She stated, "I inform by
phone."

family member." LN 7 confirmed, a copy of the
facility's Transfer/Discharge Report was faxed
to the local LTC Ombudsman when Resident
76 and Resident 119 were transferred or
discharged to the local ER.
In a concurrent interview and record review
with the director of nursing (DON) and regional
consultant (RC), on 11/8/19, at 10:26 a.m.,
both confirmed, the residents' and the
residents' representatives did not receive a
copy of the facility's Transfer/Discharge
Reports when the residents were transferred or
discharged to the local ER. The DON and the
RC stated, "Only the Ombudsman receives a
notice of transfer/discharge." The DON and the
RC confirmed, the Transfer/Discharge report
did not include the following information:
a) An explanation of the right to appeal to the
State;
b) The name, address (mail and email), and
telephone number of the State entity which
receives appeal hearing requests;
c) Information on how to request an appeal
hearing;
d) Information on obtaining assistance in
completing and submitting the appeal hearing
requests; and
e) The name, address, and phone number of
the representative of the Office of the State
LTC Ombudsman.
In a subsequent interview with the DON and
the RC, they stated, the facility's
Transfer/Discharge Report faxed to the local
LTC Ombudsman was incomplete and lacked
the important information necessary for the
Ombudsman in assisting the residents and
residents' representatives to exercise their
appeal rights.

This REQUIREMENT is not met as evidenced
by:
Based on interview and record review, the
facility failed to develop a resident centered
baseline care plan for one of 84 sampled
residents (Resident 93) when Resident 93's
baseline care plan did not include care of a
nephrostomy tube (a tube that is passed
through an opening in the skin into the kidney
allowing urine drains into a bag) which was
present on admission to the facility.
This failure had the potential that Resident 93's
immediate care needs were not addressed
timely.

in each kidney and urinary tract infection.
Review of the Minimum Data Set (MDS-a
resident assessment and care screening tool)
dated 3/28/19, indicated Resident 93 was
admitted with nephrostomy tubes.
During an interview with Resident 93 on
11/5/19, at 2:07 p.m., Resident 93 stated, "
...I've had them [nephrostomies] seven months.
That's why they put me in here."
A review of Resident 93's baseline care plan
completed 3/22/19, indicated, "Bowel and
bladder appliances ...None of the above." One
of the choices was nephrostomy.
During an interview with the director of nursing

The services provided or arranged by the
facility, as outlined by the comprehensive care
plan, must(i) Meet professional standards of quality.
This REQUIREMENT is not met as evidenced
by:
Based on observation, interviews, and review
of facility documents, the facility failed to
ensure professional standards of quality were
followed for 6 of 84 sampled residents when:
1. Resident 485's dressing was not changed as
ordered by the physician;
2. Residents 10, 112, and 127 did not receive
RNA (Restorative Nursng Assistance) as
ordered; and
3. Resident 116's compression stockings (worn
to help circulation and decrease swelling) were
ordered but not provided.
These failures increased the risk for negative
outcomes to occur for Residents 10, 112, 116,
127, and 485.
Findings:
1. Resident 485 was admitted to the facility in
the fall of 2019 with diagnoses which included
diabetes (a condition where the cells are
unable to use sugar properly) with a foot ulcer
and bone infection.
Review of Resident 485's Minimum Data Set
(MDS, an assessment tool), dated 10/30/19,

Based on observation, interview, and record
review, the facility failed to provide services to
maintain mobility for two of 84 sampled
residents (Resident 116 and Resident 73)
when:
1. Resident 116's need for restorative nursing
assistant (RNA, using special knowledge and
skills to perform rehabilitative techniques such
as guiding an individual in joint mobility
exercises) services was not assessed and
orders for services were not resumed, when
Resident 116 returned from a two day stay at
the hospital;
2. Resident 73 was not provided appropriate
treatment and services to prevent a decline in
mobility and not re-assessed for a need of
RNA-services.
These failures had the potential for Resident
116 and Resident 73 to experience a decline
in mobility which included the ability to walk.
Findings:
1. Resident 116 was admitted to the facility
with diagnoses including hemiplegia (weakness
on one side of the body) following cerebral
infarction (a stroke, caused by impaired blood
flow to the brain).
Review of the Minimum Data Set (MDS-a

This failure had the potential to result in a
urinary tract infection for Resident 93.
Findings:
Resident 93 was admitted to the facility in
2019, with diagnoses including kidney stones
(hard deposits which can block the flow of urine
and cause pain), kidney failure (kidneys filter
out waste from the blood), nephrostomy tubes
in each kidney, and urinary tract infection.
Review of the Minimum Data Set (MDS-a
resident assessment and care screening tool)
dated 9/20/19, indicated Resident 93 had a
brief interview for mental status (BIMS) score of
15. A score of 13-15 indicated intact memory.
During an interview with Resident 93 on
11/5/19, at 2:07 p.m., Resident 93 stated,
"Sometimes the bags get so full they leak
...and they keep trash bags around them. A
month ago, the right [tube] one fell out.
[Hospital] put it back in and changed the bag.
Other than that no one changes the bags. I've
had them seven months. That's why they put
me in here."
During a concurrent observation and interview
with Resident 93 on 11/7/19, at 8:31 a.m.,
Resident 93 was in bed. A plastic bag was tied
to the rail on each side of the bed and
contained a nephrostomy bag. Resident 93
indicated she had problems with nephrostomy
bags leaking, particularly the bag on her left
side.
During an interview with Licensed Nurse (LN) 8
on 11/7/19, at 8:40 a.m., LN 8 stated,
"[Resident 93] has the bags changed at

Resident 93's nephrostomy bags leaked, they
sent her to the physician.
During an interview with the central supply
manager (CSM) on 11/7/19, at 9:52 a.m., the
CSM indicated she did not know of any
residents in the facility with nephrostomies. She
indicated the nurses needed to tell her when a
resident came in who needed these supplies.
During an interview with the director of nursing
(DON) on 11/7/19, at 11:42 a.m., the DON
stated, " ...I don't know about the bags. They
[nurses] never ask me for assistance. We've
been sending residents to the emergency
department if there is a leak."
Review of the nursing care plan for Resident 93
initiated 7/31/19, indicated, "The resident has
right and left nephrostomy tubes ..." The goal
for this plan was, "The resident will show no
[signs and symptoms] of urinary infection ..."
The interventions in Resident 93's care plan did
not include monthly bag changes or any
direction to nursing staff that leaking bags
could contribute to infection.
During an interview with the regional consultant
(RC) on 11/7/19, at 3:54 p.m., the RC indicated
it was important to maintain a closed system for
a resident with nephrostomy, due to possibility
of infection. She indicated Resident 93 was
seen by a urologist (a specialist for urinary tract
problems) often for problems with leaking from
her bags and/or the site on the skin where the
tube went into the kidney. She stated, "The
policy needs to be updated. We never touched
them in the past. We had a problem with
leaking, we sent her out. She comes back and
it leaks again. I have notes every visit. It wasn't
actually every month. Sometimes longer,
sometimes more often. We don't track it. There
are a few months where she did not go out."

There was no documented evidence in the
clinical record that Resident 93's nephrostomy
bags were changed during any of her physician
visits or emergency room visits.
During an interview with the DON on 11/8/19,
at 8:23 a.m., the DON indicated she had not
performed any in-service training for
nephrostomy care to the nurses. She stated, "I
have a lot of education to do. We have a lot of
new nurses."
A review of the facility policy titled,
"Nephrostomy Tube, care of" revised October
2010, indicated nephrostomy bags should be

Resident 93 was in bed and wore oxygen
tubing attached to a concentrator (a machine
that concentrates oxygen from room air). The
rate was set at 3 L (liter, a unit to measure
volume) per minute.
During a concurrent observation and interview

contained undestroyed whole tablets in an
unsecured container, was stored in an office
with access to staff and residents;
2. There was not a secure method for removal
and disposal of used fentanyl (treats severe
pain) patches in a way that prevented diversion
(the transfer of a legally prescribed controlled
substance, from the individual for whom it was
prescribed to another person for illicit use);
and,
3. One of 84 sampled residents (Resident 479)
had a bottle of prescription narcotics (used to
relieve pain but may cause stupor, coma or
convulsions in excessive doses), at his
bedside.
These failures had the potential to allow for the
diversion of controlled substances, and/or
accidental exposure and increased risk for an
overdose of a narcotic for a census of 139.
Findings:
1. During a concurrent observation and
interview with the director of nursing (DON) on
11/6/19, at 5:19 p.m., the container used for
the destruction of controlled substances was
observed in the DON's office, on the floor,
between a filing cabinet and a bookshelf. The
container was white plastic with a blue plastic
lid. There was no locking device and the lid
was easily opened. The container was
approximately ¼ full and contained insulin
(treats high blood sugar) bottles, eye drop
bottles, breathing inhalers (device to deliver
medication to the lungs), and assorted tablets.
There was liquid observed but the level was not
high enough to cover the top of the contents.
There were intact loose tablets which were not
in contact with any liquid. The DON indicated,
they used water to destroy controlled

cover all medications in the container. She
further indicated the pharmacist was here
recently and observed the transfer of controlled
medication for destruction into this container.
The DON stated she kept her door locked
when she or her staff were not in the room.
During an interview with the consultant
pharmacist (CP) on 11/7/19, at 4:25 p.m., the
CP indicated the facility had a contract with a
company to incinerate the destroyed
medications. She stated, " ...I have nothing to
do with the incineration. I've only seen them put
narcotics in [the container] ...water is OK,
enough to soak the meds [medications]..." the
CP indicated liquid narcotics could be used as
a dissolving method, and the container should
only be used for narcotics, not other
medications. She further stated, " ...Normally
they [controlled medications] get picked up
soon. They [facility] should call the company
soon after we destroy. I'm pretty sure the
narcotics dissolved. I don't know what
happened after I left."
During an observation on 11/8/19, at 7:34 a.m.,
the DON's office door was open and there was
no one in the office. The controlled substance
destruction bin was visible on the floor next to
the filing cabinet.
During an interview with the DON on 11/8/19,
at 12:08 p.m., the DON stated, " ...They are not
supposed to be mixed in the same bin
[narcotics with other medications]. I have
ordered a smaller bin. This one came from
Station 1 and had other items in it already. It's
a big bin, so expensive ...I plan to have it
discarded when ½ full ...the destroyed
narcotics should be locked up."

2. During a concurrent observation and
interview on 11/8/19, at 1:35 p.m., with
Licensed Nurse (LN) 9, an inspection of
medication cart 2A was conducted. There was
a container with a lid, labeled "Drug Buster"
(neutralizes the active chemicals in pills and
patches). LN 9 indicated used fentanyl patches
(a narcotic used for pain, in patch form,
intended to be placed on the skin) were
disposed into the container. There was no log
or tracking system to account for the patches
removed from the resident.

ml, indicated, fentanyl is 50 to 100 times more
potent than morphine. It is prescribed in the
form of transdermal (medication delivered

diverted for misuse and abuse in the United
States.
During an interview with the DON and the
regional consultant (RC) on 11/8/19, at 2:05
p.m., the DON stated, "We don't have to log
them. Only when you use it [the fentanyl
patch]." The DON indicated the patch removed

remaining and could be disposed of in the

119.
In an interview with director of nursing (DON),
on 11/8/19, at 2:36 p.m., she expected the
licensed nurses to be checking the expiration
dates prior to administering the medications to
the residents. She stated, checking the
expiration date is part of the medication
administration procedure. She further stated,
"No expired meds [medications] anywhere in
the cart."
Review of the facility policy titled, "Storage of
Medications" revised April 2007, indicated,

Based on observation, interview, and review of
facility documents, the facility failed to ensure
proper sanitation and food handling practices
were followed for a census of 142 to prevent
the outbreak of foodborne illness when:
1. A bucket of sanitation solution was out of
potency range, and
2. Warm milk was left at Resident 483's
bedside without a name, date or time.
These failures increased the risk for food borne
illness.
Findings:
1. During a kitchen observation on 11/7/19, at
11 a.m., a red bucket of solution, used for
sanitizing, was sitting in the kitchen sink with
cleaning cloths submerged. A request was
made of the dietary supervisor (DS) to check
the potency level of the solution. The test strip
read "0 [ppm, parts per million]." She verified
the observation and said, " It can't be below
150 [ppm]."
Review of the facility document titled
"QUATERNARY [quat] AMMONIUM [a
sanitizer] LOG," dated 11/7/19, indicated
"Ammonium reading should be at least 200
ppm, or manufacturer's recommendation." The
log indicated the "Test Strip" read 400 (ppm)
but did not indicate a time.
During a concurrent record review and
interview with Cook 1 on 11/7/19, at 11:15
a.m., he said, "The quat log shows 400 [ppm]
at about 5 a.m. on 11/7/19." Both the DS and
Cook 1 verified the quat strip indicated "0" in
the only red bucket filled with solution and the
DS said, "I don't know how long it's been there.

required no assistance with eating and
drinking.
During an observation by two surveyors on
11/5/19, at 10:40 a.m., a glass of milk was

PPD solution for five to six months. She further
indicated the facility used chest x-rays or
QuantiFERON testing (a blood test to detect
TB infection).
During a concurrent interview and record
review with the director of nursing (DON) on
11/7/19, at 11:42 a.m., the DON indicated
Resident 41 refused a chest x-ray three times.
The DON indicated Resident 41 may have had
a chest x-ray prior to her admission to the
facility in August. She stated, "We've been
calling the discharging hospital to give us the
chest x-ray. They can bill insurance. We have
to pay for them." There was no documented
evidence a blood test was ordered to screen for
TB in the absence of an x-ray.
During an interview and record review with the
DSD on 11/7/19, at 12:31 p.m., the DSD
indicated the facility told the physician Resident
41 refused chest x-rays. Resident 41's last
chest x-ray was done in 2017, and according to
their policy for TB screening, a chest x-ray to
rule out TB infection was acceptable for three
months. She explained the physician instructed
staff to watch for any signs of infection. The
DSD stated she was unaware Resident 41 had
developed a cough.
During a subsequent interview with the DSD on
11/7/19, at 1:06 p.m., the DSD stated, "It's my
fault. I didn't even ask for the QuantiFERON
order. They're very expensive."
Review of the facility policy titled, "Resident
Screening for Tuberculosis" undated, indicated,
" ...All residents admitted should be tested for

Based on observations, interviews, and review
of facility documents, the facility failed to
maintain an infection prevention and control
program designed to provide a safe, sanitary
and comfortable environment, and to help
prevent the development and transmission of
communicable diseases and infections for a
census of 142 when:
1. There was no hamper with a lid and foot
pedal for discarded isolation supplies in
Resident 482's room;
2. Oxygen tubing was not covered for Resident
126;
3. Incentive spirometers (IS, device to help take
deep breaths and expand the lungs) were not
labeled for Resident 479 and Resident 480;
and
4. Tuberculosis (TB-a dangerous infection that
mainly affects the lungs and is spread with
coughing or sneezing) screening was to be
performed for Resident 41 and the PPD
(purified protein derivative-a solution used to
inject into the skin to diagnose TB) was
unavailable and an alternate screening of
Resident 41 was not performed.
These failures increased the risk for
transmission of communicable diseases and
infections.
