F 0565 Honor the resident's right to organize and participate in resident/family groups in the facility. Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Based on a review of the Food Committee meeting minutes and the facility policy on Grievances/Complaints, Filing; interview with the Dietary Manager, and interview and observation of eight residents (#157, #160, #159, #158, #38, #15, #30, #72) at meals, the facility failed to resolve a concern related to receiving condiments at meals voiced at the Food Committee meeting. Residents Affected - Few Findings included: An interview was conducted with Resident #157 on 08/29/2022 beginning at 10:30 a.m. He reported that the breakfast meal was always great with the lunch and dinner meal so-so. He said he was never given salt and pepper and was told he had to ask the aides for it when they brought his tray. He said he sometimes would remember to ask before they brought the tray, but if he forgot they often forgot also. He said he liked sandwiches at lunch, not the hot meal, but usually it didn't come with mayonnaise or mustard. He said sometimes he waited for someone to being him the condiment and sometimes he went without. A second visit with Resident #157 on 08/30/2022 at 12:30 p.m., during lunch, confirmed that salt and pepper were not delivered on the trays and only salad dressing for his salads was consistently provided. He said other kinds of condiments, such as ketchup or mayonnaise were not provided. On 09/01/2022 from 8:20 a.m. until 9:00 a.m., visits were made to seven residents who confirmed the meal trays never had salt and pepper. Resident #160 reported that there was no salt or pepper and usually no other condiment, like jelly at breakfast. The resident said there was only one margarine served as well. Resident # 159 reported that there was never any salt and pepper and even if you asked someone to bring you some, they usually forgot. Resident #158 reported that there wasn't any salt or pepper served but he confirmed he didn't really miss it either. Resident # 38 confirmed that she couldn't have the salt but there never was any pepper, so she did without. A small jar of mayonnaise was observed on her table and she smiled and confirmed that she liked her mayonnaise. Resident # 15 confirmed there never was any salt and pepper but commented that he ate everything this morning anyway. A small plastic cup of condiments was noted on his side table. Resident # 38 confirmed that there was never any salt and pepper or sugar. He confirmed he usually Page 1 of 13 105305 105305 09/01/2022 Fairway Oaks Center 13806 N 46th St Tampa, FL 33613
F 0565 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm got his salad dressing for his side salads. He reported that if the meal was a sandwich there was never any mayonnaise or mustard to use on the sandwich. Resident # 72 reported that he received many additional items to his main meal, but never any salt and pepper or any other kind of condiment. Residents Affected - Few A review was made of the Food Committee meeting minutes from March 2022 until August 2022. The 07/05/2022 meeting minutes included under New Meeting Information: Not enough condiments and Sugar in tea. The 07/19/2022 meeting listed a new concern (too many cold meals on menu) under Past Meeting Information/Follow up rather than the voiced concerns from the 07/05/2022 meeting. On 09/01/2022 at 1:30 p.m. the Dietary Manager was asked about the resolution to the two voiced concerns. She reported she spoke to her dietary aides during tray line to remind them to put condiments that were appropriate to the meal on the trays. She didn't think she had documented the discussion with the staff. When asked about the sugar in the tea, she reported that the sweet iced tea concern was specific to one resident and they had solved the concern for that one resident by ensuring she always got several sugar packets at meals to add to her tea. When asked what nursing said or did to assist in resolving the issue, she said she hadn't shared it with nursing. She confirmed that salt and pepper and sugar are on the top of the cart that delivers the meal trays to the units. A review of the facility policy, Grievances/Complaints, Filing revealed the Policy Statement indicated residents and their representatives have the right to file grievances . and the Administrator and staff will make prompt efforts to resolve the grievances to the satisfaction of the resident and/or representative. Point #3 under Policy Interpretation and Implementation read: All grievances, complaints or recommendations stemming from resident or family groups concerning issues of resident care in the facility will be considered. Actions on such issues will be responded to in writing, including a rationale for the response. 105305 Page 2 of 13 105305 09/01/2022 Fairway Oaks Center 13806 N 46th St Tampa, FL 33613
F 0656 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Few Develop and implement a complete care plan that meets all the resident's needs, with timetables and actions that can be measured. **NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on record review, observation, and interview, the facility failed to implement their Weight Assessment and Intervention Policy by developing a care plan relevant to weight loss and failed to implement the care plan that had been developed on 02/19/2021 and revised on 04/09/2021 and 03/14/2022, for one (Resident #20 ) of 48 sampled residents related to weight loss. Findings included: Resident #20 was re-admitted to the facility on [DATE] with multiple diagnoses that included Multiple Sclerosis, heart disease, and depression. A review of the resident's monthly weights revealed weight loss from 179 lbs (pounds) on 01/06/2022 to 159 lbs on 08/03/2022. In six months, from 02/02/2022 when the resident was weighed at 175.5 lbs, until 08/03/2022, the resident sustained a weight loss of 16.5 lbs or 9%. Resident #20 weighed 173 lbs on 06/07/2022, 168 lbs on 07/04/2022, and 159 lbs on 08/03/2022. Weight loss for this resident was continuing without changes to the care plan or to the resident's diet order. The change in weight from 07/04/2022 when the resident weighed 168 lbs. to 08/03/2022 when the resident weighed 159 lbs, was a loss of 9 lbs or 5.3% , which is considered significant. Review of the resident's medical record revealed a Weight Warning note dated 08/30/2022 which documented the resident's weight at 159.1 lbs, which was a negative 5% change over 30 days. The note read: weight loss is questionable since resident has a good appetite and consumes more than 75% of most meals. Requested a re-weight from nursing. Diet is regular, thin liquids and tolerated well. Will follow up once re-weight. This weight warning was written 27 days after the weight was taken, which was identified as a negative 5% change in 30 days. A reweigh was documented on 09/01/2022 and indicated continued weight loss with weight documented at 158.6 lbs. A Nutrition Full Assessment was completed on 08/30/2022 . It was identified as a significant change assessment. The assessment documented the resident's diet as regular with thin liquids with an excellent intake . No supplements were in place. Diet history confirmed the resident independently consumed three meals per day with at least 75% intake at most meals. The resident had all his teeth and there were no chewing or swallowing difficulties noted. The resident's height was 72 with an ideal body weight range of 178 lbs +/- 5%. The assessment documented that the resident was at 99% of his ideal body weight. Weight history documented a 5% or more loss in one month. Estimated needs (2400 calories and 96 grams protein) were calculated for maintenance and his intake of his diet, supplement, nourishments, and snacks were noted to meet or exceed 100% of his needs. (The assessment identified that there were no supplements in place.) 105305 Page 3 of 13 105305 09/01/2022 Fairway Oaks Center 13806 N 46th St Tampa, FL 33613
F 0656 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Few There were no labs to review and no request was made to order labs to help in determining why there had been significant weight loss. The assessment's Problem Etiology Statement (PES) read: at risk of weight loss due to diagnosis of MS (Multiple Sclerosis). The assessment summary read: Resident remains at nutrition risk r/t (related to ) MS, depression and HTN (hypertension). Resident remains on a regular diet. Tolerating diet. Skin remains intact. Weight loss of 5% in one month seems questionable , po (by mouth) intake of meals is 75% or greater. Asked nursing for re-weight since his po intake is good. The interventions and monitoring from the assessment were continue current plan of care. monitor weights monthly. An annual Minimum Data Set (MDS) Assessment was conducted on 03/02/2022 which identified the resident as having a BIMS (Brief Interview for Mental Status) score of 5, indicating severe cognitive impairment. He was able to eat his meals with supervision after being provided with set up assistance. A quarterly MDS was conducted on 06/01/2022 which identified the BIMS score as not having changed but the resident required supervision or encouragement at meals with one staff physically assisting him with his meal. In an interview on 08/31/22 at 9:00 a.m., the resident was observed sitting up in bed, watching television with his breakfast on the over the bed table in front of him. When asked how his breakfast was, he responded that it was good and he confirmed he had eaten most of it. When asked if he thought he had lost weight, as the record showed he had, he was thoughtful but then answered no, he didn't think he had lost weight. He reported that he thought he ate most of his meals. Later in the day on 08/31/22, at 12:35 p.m. the resident was observed sitting up in bed with his lunch in front of him. The resident hadn't eaten anything from the plate and he was just looking at it. Resident #20 said he wasn't hungry yet. The resident's Certified Nursing Assistant , Staff A, approached the doorway and reported that he ate a good breakfast and she would help him if he did not' eat some on his own. The care plan developed for Resident #20 for the Focus area of at risk for/has actual alteration in nutritional status r/t advancing disease process. H/o [history of] MS, weight loss. The Focus area was initiated on 02/19/2021 with a revision date of 04/09/2021. The first Goal of the care plan was for the resident not to exhibit any signs of aspiration (i.e. shortness of breath, fever, coughing, etc.) through next review. The second Goal of the care plan was for the resident to consume 50-75% of at least three meals every day through the next review. Relevant interventions included: document food choices and report changes; evaluate for reversible causes of weight loss, anorexia, or dehydration as appropriate (i.e. medication, pain, nausea, gastrointestinal disturbance, depression, oral pain, etc.); monitor lab work as ordered; Weigh weekly x 4 weeks (or until stable) subsequent to admission and monthly thereafter unless otherwise indicated. (The interventions were initiated on either 02/19/2021 or 04/25/2021.) An interview was conducted with one of two of the facility's Registered Dietitians (Staff E) on 09/01/2022 beginning at 10:57 a.m. She confirmed she had not assessed this resident but after reading the weight warning and the nutrition assessment confirmed that the resident had sustained a significant weight loss. She commented that there was no nutrition recommendation made except for a re-weight and both (the assessment and request for a reweigh) had occurred almost one month after the weight 105305 Page 4 of 13 105305 09/01/2022 Fairway Oaks Center 13806 N 46th St Tampa, FL 33613

F 0758 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Few Implement gradual dose reductions(GDR) and non-pharmacological interventions, unless contraindicated, prior to initiating or instead of continuing psychotropic medication; and PRN orders for psychotropic medications are only used when the medication is necessary and PRN use is limited. **NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on observations, record reviews, and interviews, the facility did not identify the specific behaviors to monitor related to the administration of psychotropic medications for two (Residents #1 and #9) of six residents sampled for unnecessary medications. Findings included: 1. A review of Resident #9's record revealed that she was admitted to the facility on [DATE]. Review of the Minimum Data Set (MDS) dated [DATE] revealed a Brief Interview for Mental Status (BIMS) score of 14 which indicated intact cognition. Resident #9 had diagnoses that included Major Depressive Disorder, Mood Disorder, and Anxiety Disorder, according to her face sheet.

When behaviors were documented, it was noted that there was no way to decipher which behaviors were associated with which medication. Review of the resident's progress notes for the month of August 2022 revealed no entries related to what behaviors exhibited were associated with which of the three medications. An interview on 08/31/22 at 12:54 p.m. with the Director of Nursing (DON) revealed the residents' behaviors were all monitored together and each behavior number referred to the behavior. She reported the behavior was identified by what the medication was prescribed for and was different for every resident. 2.

An interview was conducted on 08/31/22 at 9:01 a.m. with Staff C, Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN), 105305 Page 9 of 13 105305 09/01/2022 Fairway Oaks Center 13806 N 46th St Tampa, FL 33613
F 0758 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm stating there was behavior monitoring in place for medications that cause side effects like antipsychotics, narcotics, and depression. Review of the Subsequent Psychiatric Evaluation dated 07/08/22 for Resident #1 revealed under the subsection titled Additional Recommendations: Monitor her mood, behavior, and appetite. Residents Affected - Few Review of the Psychiatric Progress Note dated 08/25/22 for Resident #1 revealed under the subsection titled Treatment Plan: Monitor for changes in mood or behaviors. An interview was conducted on 08/31/22 at 11:00 a.m. with the Director of Nursing (DON) who stated behavior monitoring was done for anxiety, depression, and psychotropic medication. During the interview, the DON looked through Resident #1's chart for behavior monitoring for depression. The DON pointed to the behavior monitoring indicated use for a psychoactive medication. DON stated the nurses would indicate for example, agitation for anxiety medication on the one behavior monitoring. Resident #1 had orders for depression, anxiety, and psychoactive medications, with one behavior monitoring order in place. An interview was conducted on 08/31/22 at 12:54 p.m. with the DON, stating they used to have behavior monitoring in place for every medication that was in place for residents, but now one monitoring was in place for all medications. She said the nurses would document the behavior and what each behavior was monitored for in the notes. The DON said for Resident #1 she showed agitation with anxiety and the nurse would document it. She noted if agency nurses were not sure about behaviors for residents such as crying, the agency nurse would ask and clarify if it was a normal behavior. At 2:53 p.m. on 09/01/2022, an interview with the Consultant Pharmacist was conducted by phone. The Pharmacist stated the expectation was for the nurses to monitor behavior that was related to the type of medication the residents were taking. For example, for an anxiolytic, nurses would monitor for anxiety or other symptoms related to anxiety. She reported behaviors such as restlessness, repeating the same question, nervousness that the resident was exhibiting could be specifically monitored for anxiety or whatever behaviors the doctor had ordered the drug for. The Pharmacist reported that notes in the healthcare provider software, by facility staff such as the Unit manager might read: this is what we have been seeing,' or the APRN (Advanced Practice Registered Nurse) might make changes and document why the changes were made. The Pharmacist said she would expect the APRN to observe the resident for symptoms and then document and maybe change the medication or dose. It was pointed out that documentation of 'anxiety' was made, but not the actual behavior - such as restlessness. The Pharmacist was reminded that only one set, or area on the eMAR was monitored, and there was no differentiation between symptoms that were documented as having occurred. Review of the policy entitled Behavioral Assessment, Intervention, and Monitoring Revised in March 2019 revealed under subsection titled Management: 10. When medications are prescribed for behavioral symptoms, documentation will include: e. Specific target behaviors and expected outcomes; 105305 Page 10 of 13 105305 09/01/2022 Fairway Oaks Center 13806 N 46th St Tampa, FL 33613
