Based on observations, staff interviews, record review, and facility policy review, the facility failed to ensure
that residents who required respiratory care received such care consistent with professional standards of
practice for three (Residents #110, #146, and #150) of 25 residents who required oxygen therapy from a
total sample of 50 residents.
Residents Affected - Few
failed to ensure that physicians' orders for respiratory care were followed as prescribed, and when not
followed, the reasons were recorded in the residents' medical record during that shift for three (Residents
#110, #146, and #150) of 25 residents requiring oxygen therapy, from a total sample of 50 residents.
The findings include:
1. On 3/25/2024 at 10:18 am, Resident #110 was observed lying in bed wearing a nasal cannula. Resident
#110's oxygen concentrator was observed with a flow rate set at 2.5 L/min (liters per minute).
On 3/25/2024 at 1:46 pm, another observation was made of Resident #110 lying in bed wearing a nasal
cannula with the oxygen flow rate set at 2.5 L/min. (Photographic evidence obtained)
On 3/28/2024 at 9:20 am, a third observation was made of Resident #110's oxygen concentrator with a flow
rate set at 2.5 L/min. (Photographic evidence obtained)
A review of the resident's medical record revealed active physician's orders for oxygen at 2 L/min via nasal
cannula every shift, dated: 11/9/2023.
A review of the resident's Quarterly Minimum Data Set (MDS) assessment, dated 2/16/2023, revealed he
had a Brief Interview for Mental Status (BIMS) score of 13 out of 15 possible points, indicating intact
cognition.
A review of the resident's active care plan, initiated on 11/23/2023, revealed: oxygen therapy related to
chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Interventions included administering oxygen via
__(specify) L/min and administering medications as ordered by the physician. Monitor/document side
effects and effectiveness.
The resident's Medication Administration Record (MAR) for March 2024 indicated no oxygen had been
documented as administered for 3/18/2024 on the evening shift. All other oxygen was documented as
having been provided at 2 L/min via nasal cannula as ordered by the physician, as opposed to 2.5 L/min as
observed twice on 3/25/24 and once on 3/28/24.
On 3/28/2024 at 9:31 am, Registered Nurse (RN) I stated Resident #110 would change his oxygen settings
and sometimes unplug the machine. When asked how staff addressed this behavior with the resident, she
stated, Staff reiterate to the resident the importance of his oxygen therapy. The nurse is responsible for
providing ongoing monitoring of the resident'a oxygen therapy. Nurses are also responsible for ensuring
that residents receive correct oxygen orders. Correct oxygen settings are identified in the order and the
MAR. Central supply or nursing staff change residents' oxygen tubing every seven days or as needed.
Correct oxygen settings are communicated from one staff person to another in report. RN I stated Resident
#110 changed his own oxygen flow rate setting. He did not refuse oxygen therapy; he was not noncompliant
but would forget. No documentation was noted in the resident's
