Honor the resident's right to a dignified existence, self-determination, communication, and to exercise his or her rights.
Based on observations, resident interview, and staff interviews, the facility failed to ensure residents had a comfortable and dignified dining experience during four of four days observed (2/4/2020, 2/5/2020, 2/6/2020, and 2/7/2020), in one of four dining rooms (the café restorative room). It was observed that residents were 1. Cramped and in the room with staff constantly carrying items over their heads, 2. Residents positioned close to the wall with hand sanitizer stations right at or just above their heads and 3. Residents seated at tables in a manner not able to receive and take bites of food comfortably.
Findings included: On 2/4/2020 at 12:10 p.m. the main dining room and back Café restorative room were observed during the lunch meal service. During this time Staff were observed assisting with hydration pass and awaiting the tray cart to pass out and set up meals. The back restorative room was observed with seven tables and with seventeen residents positioned at them. The tray cart arrived at 12:16 p.m. and staff started service immediately. Further observation revealed the tables were positioned in such a way, residents and staff were cramped in. Staff were observed to walk discarded trays and other items while they held them over the heads of residents, who were seated. Some tables were observed with approximately less than two feet of space between each other. Staff were observed at least eight times to pass or walk trays, while carrying them over resident's heads. Also, the room was observed with three hand sanitizer stations hanging on the wall on three of the four walls in the room. There was one resident (#49), who was seated directly next to a hand sanitizer station, which was no more than seven inches from the left side of his head. Various staff were observed to use this station at least twelve times while resident #49 was being assisted with his meal. Resident #49 could not be interviewed related to his dining service. There was also a table in the room that was directly next to another hand sanitizer station, and with two residents seated at it. Staff were observed at least ten times to go directly behind the resident to use the station, which was directly back and over the residents' heads. The lunch meal dining service lasted about one hour and ten minutes. On 2/5/2020 at 12:20 p.m. the small restorative dining room was again observed for the lunch meal service. There were eighteen residents in the room seated at the same seven tables. There were seven staff members observed in the room assisting and interacting with residents. At 12:32 p.m. the meal tray cart arrived for this dining room. The right side of the room and to the back wall was observed with a table used to place empty trays and other various used items. Upon placing/setting up meal trays, staff had to maneuver their way between three tables. Upon doing this, staff had to lift and carry empty trays and various other items directly over the heads of three residents. One resident was seated in a Geri chair. The Geri chair was reclined and positioned in a manner where staff had to squeeze their way by between that resident and another. It was observed that tables needed more

spacing so staff would not have to squeeze between residents and carry items over their heads. Further, this was observed to happen over ten times. On 2/6/2020 at 8:10 a.m. the small restorative dining room was observed for the breakfast meal service. There were continued observations of the hand sanitizer stations on the walls, being utilized by staff, with residents seated directly next to and below them. It was observed that Resident #49 was again seated no more than seven inches with his head next to one of the stations. Staff were also observed to maneuver themselves at least ten times between resident #49's head and the wall sanitizer station. On 2/7/2020 at 8:30 a.m. the small restorative dining room was again observed during the breakfast meal service and with the same seven tables positioned tightly throughout the room. There were thirteen residents seated at these tables. Resident #44 still positioned at a table with the hand sanitizer station next to his head. Staff were observed to use the sanitizer station over twelve times as residents were being served meals. The station was seven to nine inches away from the resident's head. Further, while setting up and passing meal trays, staff were still observed to carry discarded/used trays and other items over the heads of several residents, who were in process of eating. The space and walk through area between two tables were tightly cramped. Observations during all four days in the small restorative dining room revealed residents were not interviewable and were not able communicate related to their dining experience. On 2/7/2020 at 1:00 p.m. an interview with both the Director of Nursing (DON), and the Nursing Home Administrator (NHA) confirmed the small restorative dining room is a bit cramped and that the meal service in that room needs to be expanded to two meal services, for both lunch and dinner, so there is more room for residents and staff to move throughout. The NHA further confirmed that the hand sanitizer stations were positioned on the walls directly close to residents and that they need to be addressed as well. Observation on 02/06/2020 Resident #68 at 12:15 p.m., revealed she was seated in her low wheelchair at a table in the small restorative dining room. The Resident's head was turned downward resting in her hand, resulting in the edge of the table being level with her forehead. When the Resident #68 would slightly lift their head upward, the edge of the table was still above the Resident's mouth. An Aide sat in a high-level swivel chair next to Resident #68 and began to assist her with eating. The Aide's shoulder was level with the Resident's top of head. The Aide brought the utensils with food down below the edge of the table to reach the resident's mouth. At 12:19 p.m., another Aide sat next to the Resident #68 in a lower level chair, resulting in the Aide's shoulder being level with the Resident's shoulder and began assisting with eating. The observation during the entire meal service from at least 12:15 p.m. through to 1:00 p.m. revealed resident #68's face and mouth were at or too close to the table's edge, making it very difficult for her to take bites of food comfortably. Interview with Aides in the room revealed resident #68 is seated in a low wheelchair and she does not use a seat booster. None of the Aides had reasoning as to why she was being assisted with her meals at such a low position. Resident #68 was not able to be interviewed related to her positioning and meal service.

Provide appropriate care for a resident to maintain and/or improve range of motion (ROM), limited ROM and/or mobility, unless a decline is for a medical reason.
Based on interviews, observations, and record review, the facility did not ensure that one of sixty-one sampled residents (#44,) received adequate treatment and care in accordance with recognized practice standards. Specifically, this was related to the facility did not have orders for Resident #44's thumb splint, hand splint and brace during three of four days.
Findings include: An observation was conducted on 2/06/20 at 10:55 a.m. Resident #44 was observed in her room sitting in her wheelchair. She was observed wearing a left leg orthotic brace. A left thumb splint was not observed. The Resident stated the thumb brace had fallen off. She stated they will replace it in therapy when they come get her.

A blue finger loop hand splint was also observed on top of the side table. Resident stated, The aides put it on when I go to therapy. Review of Resident #44's medical record revealed that Resident #44's initial admission was 8/10/19. The admission Record included medical diagnoses not limited to hemiplegia, hemiparesis, and muscle weakness. A review of Resident #44's Comprehensive Care plans, most recently revised on 10/17/19 revealed there were no focus areas or interventions pertaining to splints or braces. Review of the physician Order summary Report dated 2/7/2020 revealed there were no orders for Adaptive devices such as splints or braces or a Restorative Program. The MDS (minimum data set) dated 11/17/19 revealed: Cognitive Patterns: BIMS (Brief Interview for Mental Status) score of 09, which indicated she had moderate cognitive impairment. Section F Functional Status: resident requires 1-2 person extensive to total dependence assistance with most activities of daily living (ADL's). Under Specialized Treatments/Services: OT (Occupational Therapy): certification period 11/15/19-12/13/2019: use of an adaptive device was checked.

An interview on 02/06/20 at 08:42 AM with Staff A, Registered Nurse (RN).Staff A reviewed the 3008 admission form, admission note for 8-24-19, Hard Copy Medical record and did not find information on splints. Staff A stated the resident may have received the splints in therapy because the admission was through Physical therapy/Occupational therapy. Staff A confirmed there were no orders for the Restorative program nor splints in the electronic or hard copy record. Nurse A then stated I'm familiar with the maintenance restorative program usually the devices are taken off at night and placed back on in the morning and residents also have routine skin checks. Restorative nurses take care of the braces. Unless it is maintenance ROM there would be a Restorative program order and I don't see it. An interview on 02/06/20 at 09:06 AM with the Restorative Nurse stated she was new in the position and is also the risk manager. Nurse confirmed the Restorative program referral was dated 1/7/20 and she stated she did not place the order for the resident to begin the restorative program. The Director of Nursing present at the time of interview, confirmed the date of the referral and added that there had been a CNA trained by PT to perform the resident's treatment recommended. The director also stated the restorative CNAs receive a special training. After the duration of the program is completed the resident is reevaluated by physical therapy for further recommendations. The CNAs are trained by PT/OT in the treatment that is recommended. An interview on 02/06/20 at 09:29 AM with the Rehabilitation Director and Staff D PTA (Physical Therapy Assistant). The Director stated the resident has a AFO (ankle foot orthotics) because she was able to stand but was rolling her ankle. The resident consulted with orthotics and they made a custom cast mold. The AFO was made for the resident. Physical Therapy recommended and ordered a hand brace but it was not here yet. The department provided the resident with a temporary one. When the resident transitions to restorative from Physical therapy the department assistants follow the Restorative CNA for a couple of visits to ensure the resident is comfortable and the treatment is being performed correctly. OT (Occupational therapy) gave the resident a finger splint. The Resident is able to put it on and take it off. Rehabilitation director reviewed the Restorative nursing referral form and stated she had been referred to the restorative program January 7, 2020 and that the CNA had been accompanied by Physical Therapy in three occasions to review treatment with the resident. An interview on 02/06/20 at 11:01 AM with staff B MDS RN. Staff B reviewed the care plan and confirmed there were no devices listed in the care plan. An orthotic device should be on the care plan under ADL's, if the resident was in the restorative program there would be a separate care plan for that. Staff B stated the other Restorative Nurse would write the restorative care plan. On 02/07/20 09:05 AM an interview with Rehabilitation Director, she stated an AFO is part of the resident's dressing it is placed in the morning before patient gets up from bed and taken off before going to bed, it is used for transfer. The AFO is one whole piece, shoe and brace with straps, there is really no wrong way to place an AFO, because it is a custom fit device, unless you place it on the wrong foot or the resident has recent edema you might tighten the strap too much. Unlike a hand splint which we have to determine amount of time tolerated the AFO is a dressing piece.

Provide safe, appropriate dialysis care/services for a resident who requires such services.
Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on observations, record review, facility policy review and staff interview, the facility failed to ensure one of five residents who receive Dialysis services, and out of sixty-one sampled total residents (#66), was evaluated for pre and post Dialysis visits. It was determined that the facility's Dialysis communication sheets were not documented with all the required information in order to closely evaluate the residents.
Residents Affected - Few
Findings included: Review of resident #66's medical record revealed he was admitted to the facility for long term care on 2/12/2017 and again more recently from the hospital on [DATE]. Review of the advance directives revealed resident #66 was his own responsible party and medical decision maker. Review of the diagnosis sheet revealed diagnoses to include but not limited to: ESRD (End Stage Renal Disease), Chronic Kidney Disease, Dependence on Renal Dialysis. On 2/06/20 5:04 p.m. an interview with Resident #66 revealed when he goes to Dialysis they give him a lunch but he doesn't remember what he ate. He feels safe when he is getting transported. When asked about why he was sent to the hospital from the dialysis center the resident said that blood pressure drops sometimes. It doesn't happen a lot but it generally does. He indicated that he doesn't feel pain around his stent. Review of the current POS (Physician's Order Sheet) for the month 2/2020 revealed resident #66 was ordered for: Dialysis schedule Tuesday's, Thursday's, and Saturdays; Diet order No Added Salt, regular consistency with thin liquids. Per review of the order sheet, observations during the survey from 2/4/2020 through to 2/7/2020, and interview with the resident and floor care staff, resident #66 is transported to a Dialysis center three times a week to receive services. Review of the facility's Dialysis Communication Forms, dated from 1/1/2020 through to 2/7/2020, it was determined that six communication sheets were not filled out entirely, to include: a. Form dated 1/11/2020 revealed the section filled out by nurse prior to leaving the facility, revealed lacked vital signs, lack of when the resident had his last meal, and was not signed or dated by the nurse. Further, the section where the Dialysis center fills out, was not signed or dated by a nurse. Additionally, upon return from the Dialysis center, the section for the facility nurse did not document admitting vital signs, nor was it signed and dated by a nurse. b. Form dated 1/14/2020 revealed no section completed with vitals signs, etc., prior to leaving the facility. Further, the section to be completed by facility nurse, upon returning from the Dialysis center, lacked vitals signs and who and when that information was completed. c. Form dated 1/18/2020 revealed the section filled out by the nurse prior to leaving the facility, lacked vital signs, lacked when the resident had his last meal, and was not signed or dated by nurse.

lacked vital signs, lacked when the resident had his last meal, and was not signed and dated by the nurse. Additionally, the section to be completed by the facility nurse, upon resident returning from the Dialysis center, it was totally blank and not signed or dated. e. Form dated 1/28/2020 revealed the section filled out by the nurse prior to leaving the facility, lacked vital signs, lacked when the resident had his last meal, and was not signed and dated by the nurse. Additionally, the section to be completed by the facility nurse, upon resident returning from the Dialysis center, it was totally blank and not signed or dated. f. Form dated 2/1/2020 revealed the section filled out by the nurse prior to leaving the facility, lacked vital signs and was not signed or dated by the facility nurse. Additionally, the section to be completed by the facility nurse, upon resident returning from the Dialysis center, it was totally blank and not signed or dated. Interview with the Central Unit Manager on 2/7/2020 at 12:20 p.m. revealed that prior to leaving the facility, those who receive Dialysis are to have their vitals taken and to include Blood Pressure signs. She further indicated that the form goes to the Dialysis center with the resident and that center is responsible for filling out their section. She also indicated that upon return, the facility nurse is to take vitals and fill out the third section of the form to include vital signs. The Unit Manager confirmed that the above listed Dialysis Communication forms were not completed entirely and that they should have. The Unit Manager was asked if the information was documented elsewhere in the chart and she revealed that it was not. On 2/7/2020 at 3:10 p.m. the DON (Director of Nursing) indicated that for residents who go to Dialysis center, and to include resident #66, staff are to initiate every day and to do the following: Facility nurse is to fill out top portion of communication sheet with vitals, weights, med holds, and any other information prudent to Dialysis, and sign and date. The DON further indicated that the communication form goes to the Dialysis center and that nursing staff there are responsible for filling out their section with the same documenting of vitals, weights, med holds, etc. and that a nurse there is to sign and date as well. The DON also explained that the communication form is returned from Dialysis with the resident and upon arriving back, the nurse will again complete and document vitals, weights, med holds, etc. and then sign and date. She confirmed that out of sixteen communication sheets reviewed, six were not filled out completely with either weights not completed, and also staff not signing their section. She further confirmed that after checking the entire medical record and to include progress notes, none of the missing information on these communication sheets were documented and therefore nursing staff would not be able to make good assessment judgements from the lack of information. On 2/7/2020 at 2:45 p.m., review of the facility's Special Care - General Care of the Resident Receiving Dialysis policy and procedure, dated 6/7/2014, under the Procedure section, (I), and #12, revealed, Monitor the resident's blood pressure after the Dialysis treatment, or per Physician's orders.
