Record review of Resident # 89's Care Plan Reference Date 07/12/23 revealed: 05-12-23 Left nephrostomy tube (FR8) inserted on 05-12-23. Diagnosis Left urinary tract obstruction proximal left ureter calculus. Interventions included: Assess urine output every shift. If abnormalities noted- scanty or no output: Record the amount, type, color, odor. Observe for leakage. Notify provider at once if abnormal s/s noted for appropriate interventions. Follow up Nephrology consultation as ordered.

Problem: [Use of bedside rails as enabler Use of bedside rails as enabler/support: Resident presents impaired balance & gait. Use of bed side rails will assist resident with bed mobility/enable safe transfers to and out of bed/improve balance while sitting at the edge of the bed.] DISCONTINUE PLAN OF CARE INCLUDING GOALS AND APPROACHES. Goal: Resident will be able to facilitate movement and benefit with the use of bedrails as enablers and reduce related complications e.g., minimize risks of pressure ulcer development and/or bodily injury thru next review date. Resident bed mobility will not be impeded and will not prevent resident from physically moving freely and will not be physically confine and restricted thru next review date. Problem: Resident admitted for rehabilitation. Resident has hx/o (history of) homelessness. LTC (Long term care) is likely the plan of choice. Resident admitted under guardianship. Goal: Will continue receiving the level of care and medical attention from the SNF. Will communicate needs and concerns. Will accept daily care and treatment.

Review of Resident #77's vitals revealed the following: 07/10/2023 oxygen (O2) Saturation: 96%, Oxygen Use: Yes-Liter flow-2. 07/10/2023 at a11:16, O2 Saturation: 97% Oxygen Use: No, 07/10/2023 at 22:42 O2 Saturation: 98%, Oxygen Use: Yes - Liter flow-2, 07/11/2023 at 01:20, O2 Saturation: 100%, Oxygen Use: Yes-Liter flow-2, 07/11/2023 at 01:37, O2 Saturation: 100%, Activity: Resting, Location: Right Upper Digit, Oxygen Use: Yes-Liter flow-2, 07/11/2023 at 10:00, O2 Saturation: 100%, Oxygen Use: Yes - Liter flow-2, 07/11/2023 at 16:59, O2 Saturation: 98%, Oxygen Use: No, 07/12/2023 at 02:03, O2 Saturation: 100%, Oxygen Use: Yes - Liter flow-2, 07/12/2023 at 12:01, O2 Saturation: 99%, Oxygen Use: Yes - Liter flow-2. Review of progress notes revealed, a note dated 07/11/2023 at 22:45-Resident lying in bed in stable conditions, resident awake and alert. Medication given as ordered and well tolerated. Oxygen at 2 liters via nasal cannula, a note dated 07/13/2023 08:34 11-7 SHIFT: Post dialysis state satisfactory. Vitals signs stable (VSS), oxygen (O2) at 2 liters via nasal canula (n/c), O2 saturation 95 in room air, insisting on using O2, education provided, blood pressure (B/P) 144/60, Pulse 56. Left femoral dialysis catheter intact with clean dry and intact dressing, will continue to monitor. Call light at his reach. During an interview on 07/12/23 at 11:40 AM with Staff H-Registered Nurse on North Wing revealed, when asked about Resident #77's oxygen use, she stated he uses oxygen, it is continuous, he always needs it. When asked about the time Resident #77 came back from dialysis, she stated, I have to check the computer, she proceeded to check the computer and stated, I do not see it here, let me get the paper to check, I gave him his medication. Staff H went to get paper then she came back and stated, let me check the Medication Administration Record (MARs), he came at round 11:00 as I gave him hydralazine at 11:15 AM. When asked about who is in charge of placing oxygen on resident when coming back from dialysis, she stated the nurse is in charge to place the oxygen back, and he immediately calls if he needs as he is alert. When asked whether the resident had the oxygen in place at the time of the interview, she stated, if he hasn't taken it off, he has it, and sometimes we take it off for repositioning, when they come, we receive them. Surveyor asked Staff H to come to the room to check the oxygen, she entered the room and stated, he doesn't have it, where is his oxygen. Staff H proceeded to grab the nasal cannula and it dropped on the floor, then she exited the room and stated, I am going to get a new nasal cannula as the other one touched the floor. Staff H came back to the room, proceeded to place the nasal cannula on a paper towel on the resident's overbed table, she washed her hands and talked to the resident about putting on the oxygen. Asked, how many liters he needed, she stated, it has to be at 2 liters, it was off and when it is off, it falls down completely. She turned on machine and adjusted oxygen level, and placed the nasal cannula on the resident. Surveyor then proceeded to check the oxygen liters on the oxygen machine, machine stills read 1.5 liters at this time. Surveyor pointed out to Staff H about the liters on the machine and she stated, the problem is I'm looking from up top not down there. She adjusted the oxygen and had a hard time placing it to 2 liters. After surveyor intervention, review of progress notes on 07/12/23 revealed a note dated 7/12/23 with Date/Time 07/12/2023 at 11:00, Created Date 07/12/2023 at 11:47 Created By Staff H-Resident returned from dialysis procedure, stable conditions, O2 99% at room air, resident stated no need for 02 at this time. Will notify MD (Medical Doctor) for further recommendations.

During an interview on 07/12/23 at 02:54 PM with Staff H-Registered Nurse on the North Wing, about the note, she stated I checked his saturation and since it was good I talked to the doctor, and she stated that it was not continuous, the oxygen, when I put the oxygen on I check, when you left I checked the saturation and it was fine. I told the doctor and I checked his saturation, she gave me a new order, this was at around 1:00, when I talked to you, and I asked him how he was feeling, he said fine.
Residents Affected - Few During an interview on 07/12/23 at 03:02 PM with Staff I-Registered Nurse/Charge Nurse on North Wing. When asked about following the oxygen order for Resident #77, she stated, the nurse is in charge of checking the order, every shift for the oxygen, he went to dialysis, he goes to dialysis Monday, Wednesday, and Friday, previously his oxygen was continuous, and he is improving, and they evaluated him today, as he is doing better and we have changed the order to as needed (PRN), previously the order was at 2 Liters continuously. Staff H called the doctor that the patient is doing pretty good for the saturation, and the doctor came to see him, she was here with the nurse practitioner, she was here around noon. During an interview on 07/13/23 at 11:35 AM with the Director of Nursing (DON), when asked the protocol to follow for checking on oxygen machines to which she stated, the protocol depends on the order, if continuous, they will put it continuously or PRN when it is necessary to use, the nurse has to look at it, and see whatever the order is, then that it is. When asked about the way the oxygen machine can be read, she stated, I would think that you will be eye level, but I do not know if that is necessary, to be able to balance the flow meter at any height you should be able to see it, you do not have to be at a certain position. When asked about Resident #77's order, she stated, continuous means all the time, the order was changed, what should happen as far as that order, is concerning if they are noticing that the pulse oximetry is good or at 100%, you do not need it, they are taking the pulse oximetry all the time if there is an appropriate level, they probably don't need it. I would think they will have to bring it up to the floor, if you see that the pulse oximetry is 100% all the time, so why would he be on oxygen all the time, that is probably something we should have identified that he did not need it sooner. Review of the facility policy and procedure for Oxygen Therapy dated, 2/20/2022 revealed, The purpose of the procedure is to provide guidelines for safe oxygen administration. Preparation: 1. Verify that there is a physician's order for this procedure. Review the physicians orders or facility protocol for oxygen administration.
