**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
observation, interview and record review the facility failed to review and revise the Comprehensive Patient
Centered Care Plan related to smoking based on the resident's assessment for one (#19) of three sampled
residents of 15 total smokers.
Findings included:
A review of the Current Facility Smokers list was provided by the facility on 2/11/20. The list showed
Resident #19 was to be supervised while smoking and the staff was to maintain her supplies.
Observation on 02/11/20 at 4:09 p.m. revealed Resident #19 was in the smoking area without supervision
present. She stated that she smokes and was allowed to keep her supplies with her. She stated that she
was also allowed to smoke without supervision. At 4:45 p.m. Resident #19 was observed again in the
smoking area. A staff member was on the porch but took another resident into the facility and left Resident
#19 unsupervised in the smoking area.
A review of the admission Record for Resident #19 showed that she was admitted to the facility on [DATE].
Diagnoses included but not limited to bipolar, hypertension, and anxiety.
Record review of the Smoking Evaluation dated 01/14/20 showed the resident may smoke unsupervised in
designated smoking area.
Record review of the smoking care plan, initiated on 12/6/19, showed Resident #19 had been assessed as
able to smoke with supervision due to poor safety awareness. The resident had been informed of the facility
smoking policy. The goals included the resident will adhere to the smoking policy daily and will demonstrate
safe smoking practices. The interventions dated 12/06/19 included but were not limited to: maintain
smoking materials in designated area (with facility staff); accompany the resident to the designated
smoking area and provide supervision; provide assistance with lighting the cigarette; and provide
redirection if resident was observed in any unsafe smoking practices.
During an interview on 02/13/20 at 5:00 p.m. the Director of Nursing (DON) reviewed the 01/14/20 smoking
evaluation and smoking care plan. She stated that the evaluation and care plan did not match. Resident
#19 needed supervision with smoking on admission but had come a long way. The care plan needed to
have been updated to her current status. The 3 to 11 (3:00 p.m. -11:00 p.m.) supervisor that performed the
January (1/2020) evaluation should have communicated the change with the MDS (Minimum Data Set)
coordinator so she could update the smoking care plan.
Record review of the facility's policy, Smoking Policy-Residents, dated April 2007, showed it is the policy of
this facility to establish and maintain safe resident smoking practices. Any restrictions placed on smoking
privileges shall be noted on the care plan so that all personnel may be alert to smoking restrictions.
Smoking restrictions may be imposed on residents at any time if the Attending Physician and/or Director of
Nursing determine that the resident is not able to smoke safely without supervision. Smoking restrictions
shall not be assessed against any resident for the mere convenience of the staff, but for the safety and
well-being of the resident. Any resident with restricted smoking privileges shall not be permitted to smoke
without the direct supervision of a responsible staff member, family member, visitor or volunteer worker and
direct supervision must be provided

smoke unsupervised with a smoking apron and the materials were to be kept by the staff. The care plan
showed he was to use a smoking apron and the materials were to be kept in a designated area. The DON
stated that the facility staff was to keep his materials because he kept stating that his cigarettes were being
taken by others. So, to solve that problem the facility staff was keeping his materials. The DON stated that
the care plan needed to be updated related to the materials. She also stated that Resident #62 was
supposed to wear a smoking apron when he was smoking. She also stated that each resident had their

Residents Affected - Few
Findings included:
1. An observation on 2/11/20 at 4:55 p.m. revealed Staff A, Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) removed the
blood glucose meter from the top drawer of the medication cart and set it on the top of the cart. She also
placed a lancet and alcohol wipes on top of the cart also (no barrier). Staff A stated that she had one more

removed her gloves. She informed the resident the results were 208. She placed the lancet into the
biohazard container. She placed the blood glucose meter on the top of the medication cart. She washed her
hands. She drew the required amount of insulin. She donned her gloves and administered the insulin. Staff
A, LPN removed her gloves and washed her hands. She moved the blood glucose meter with her bare
hand. She administered the rest of Resident #7's medications. She washed her hands. She opened the top
drawer of the medication cart and placed the uncleaned blood glucose meter inside. When asked about
cleaning of the machine she stated that she would clean it with an alcohol wipe. She removed the
uncleaned machine from the drawer and cleaned it with multiple alcohol wipes. She stated that she would
clean it and leave it out to air dry for 2-3 minutes. She put it back in the drawer after a few moments.
2. An observation on 2/11/20 at 6:00 p.m. revealed Staff B, Registered Nurse (RN) had two blood glucose
meters sitting on top of her medication cart in plastic cups. She stated that after she cleans the meters, she
places them in the cup to dry. She placed a barrier/Styrofoam plate on the medication cart and placed the
blood glucose meter on it, including alcohol wipes and a lancet. She entered Resident #99's room and
placed a paper towel on the over bed table and placed the items on the barrier on the bedside table. She

the biohazard container. Staff B, RN wiped the meter with bleach wipes and placed in the cup on the
medication cart. Staff B stated that she wipes the meter with a bleach wipe and leaves it in the cup for
about 3 minutes before replacing in the drawer.
During an interview on 2/11/20 at 6:20 p.m. the Director of Nursing (DON) stated that they were supposed
to use bleach wipes after blood glucose meter use. They were to wipe the meter and put it in a cup until it is
dry. She stated that she will educate the nurses about using a bleach wipe not an alcohol wipe to clean the
meters. The DON stated that she had not reviewed the directions or contact time on the bleach wipe
container. They instructed the nursing staff to wipe the blood glucose meter and leave it in a cup until it
dries.
A review of the directions for the bleach wipes showed a 30 second contact time is required to kill all the
bacteria and viruses on the label except a 1-minute contact time is required to kill Trichophyton
mentagrophytes and a 3-minute contact is required to kill Clostridium difficile spores. Reapply as necessary
to ensure that the surface remains wet the entire contact time. Allow surface to air
