Gradual Dose Reduction (GDR) meetings are when she would find out a new diagnosis or if the psychiatry
provider visits the resident and gives a new diagnosis, they would send an email about any changes. She
stated she has begun fixing PASRR's which require a Level II once survey started on 06/23/25. She stated
she would know if the resident would need a Level II from the questions in the system where she fills out
the PASRR. She stated she is not familiar with the regulation.

An interview was conducted with Staff J, Minimum Data Set (MDS) Coordinator on 6/26/2025 at 11:42 A.M.
She said she updates the care plan as she reads the order listing report every day. She stated, If it's not
from the order listing, it's word of mouth from the nursing staff on changes needing to be made. At our
clinical meeting every morning, the interdisciplinary team discusses the falls and then we decide which
interventions would be appropriate for each fall. There is an intervention for every fall incident. There always
must be a new intervention; even if we've chosen everything, we must write something. Staff J, MDS
Coordinator said, the comprehensive care plans must be individualized, or they don't work. Staff J, MDS
Coordinator stated, we leave the intervention in the comprehensive care plan even if it's not working. We
just need to add something as an intervention when an incident happens. She said she updates the
interdisciplinary team in the morning, but not the nursing staff.
An interview was conducted with the Director of Nursing (DON) on 6/26/2025 at 1:54 P.M. The DON said
any change with a resident is discussed in the morning clinical meeting. The MDS Coordinator updates the
comprehensive care plan every day. The DON said the nurses make a progress note in the medical record
with possible interventions as well as putting it in the incident report. Updates to the comprehensive care
plans are made as needed, quarterly, annually, and after meetings with the family. The DON stated, The
CNA's can look in task record on the computer and nurses should be able to open and adjust the
comprehensive care plan as needed. I think most of them know how to do that, but I'm sure some do not.
The DON stated, when there is an incident with a resident, there should be a new intervention that is
geared based on the root cause analysis of why the incident happened. This is done every incident. If the
interventions are not working, the interdisciplinary team would reevaluate and determine a new
intervention. The DON said the interventions are not dated in the comprehensive care plan.
A review of the facility's policy titled, Comprehensive Care Plan implemented on 9/1/2023 and revised on
1/2025 showed, It is the policy of this facility to develop and implement a comprehensive person-centered
care plan for each resident, consistent with residents rights, that includes measurable objectives and

6/2/25: Patient was seen today for overall care and therapy. Patient FM stated that he is much better today.
Spouse states that she would like to know cognitively where the patient is at mentally. Patient needs an MRI
and needs to be sedated to do so. FM requests to speak to physician so she will be able to know how to

6/5/25: Patient was seen today for follow up on therapy and overall health. Staff stated that patient removed
the Foley catheter and voiding trial was in process. Stated to staff that if patient does not void to straight
cath again and in six hours if patient has not voided insert Foley but use a leg bag. Staff has stated that the
since the patient has been restless that the meatus has been slightly split. Will order urology consult.
During an interview on 06/25/2025 at 9:45 a.m., Staff R, Driver/Transportation stated she sets up all the
appointments for residents. When residents need an appointment the nursing staff fills out a form and puts
it into a folder outside of her door. She then arranges transportation and schedules the appointments. I was
not aware Resident #134 needed an appointment to see a Urologist. He saw a Neurologist, who ordered an
MRI, but his wife wants him to be sedated for the MRI, but I am not sure what happened with that.
During an interview on 06/25/2025 at 11:03 a.m., Staff P, Registered Nurse (RN) stated she was not aware
of Resident #134 needing an MRI. I believe he was supposed to see a Urologist but cannot remember why.
The physician will notify the nurse of any new orders. The nurses put the order in and then a form is filled
out and given to the appointment Transportation and she sets the appointments up for the residents.

Manager (UM), stated if residents need an appointment only the Transportation person schedules the
appointments. The nurses fill out a form and put it in a folder. She reviewed Resident #134's chart and
found an order for Resident #134 to see a Urologist. The order was put it in on 06/05/2025 for stat. I don't
see any notes from the Urologist, and I don't see an order for an MRI.
During an interview on 06/25/2025 at 5:13 p.m., the Director of Nursing (DON), stated transportation
facilitates the appointments and transportation. A stat order would mean the resident needs to be seen
quickly. I know we were having an issue with Resident #134's insurance and that is why he has not had his
MRI or seen the Urologist. This should be documented in a note in the residents' chart. We will talk with the
physician and offer for the resident go to the hospital since he has not been seen by the Urologist.
The facility did not have a policy for review.

Ensure medication error rates are not 5 percent or greater.
Level of Harm - Minimal harm
or potential for actual harm
Based on observation, interviews and record review, the facility failed to ensure the medication error rate
was less than 5.00%. Twenty-eight medication opportunities were observed, and two errors were identified
for one resident (#133) out of six residents observed. These errors constituted a 7.14% medication error
rate.
Residents Affected - Few
Findings included:
On 06/25/25 at 9:31 a.m. an observation was made of Staff F, Registered Nurse (RN). Staff F dispensed
the following medications for Resident #133.
-Losartan 100 milligram (mg) tablet
-Lidocaine patch
-Zonisamide 100 mg tablet
-Nifedipine 60 mg capsule
-MiraLAX powder
Staff F began by dispensing one Losartan 100mg tablet into a small medicine cup. The staff member then
poured an unidentified amount of MiraLAX into the same small medicine cup. She stated it is about a capful
of MiraLAX and that's how much they give. Staff F then poured the powder and Losartan tablet from the
small medicine cup into a larger drinking cup. The staff member then pulled an additional Losartan 100mg
tablet and placed it into a separate empty medicine cup. The other two medications were added to the
medicine cup. Staff F proceeded to pour water in the larger cup with the MiraLAX. This was stopped before
administration to the resident for safety. Staff F was made aware of the additional Losartan tablet mixed
with the MiraLAX powder. The staff member scooped out the tablet with a spoon and stated it should not be
in there and was wondering what happened to the tablet.
A review of Resident #133's Order Summary revealed the following medication orders:
-Losartan Potassium oral tablet 100MG, Give 1 tablet by mouth one time a day for HTN {hypertension}
-MiraLAX Powder (Polyethylene Glycol 3350), Give 1 packet by mouth one time a day for bowel
On 06/26/25 at 5:00 p.m. an interview with the Director of Nursing (DON) was conducted. She stated the
MiraLAX order wasn't written correctly, it should show the strength and what to mix it with. She stated
MiraLAX should have been poured into the bottle cap instead of a small medication cup and should not
have been mixed with another medication because MiraLAX should be given by itself.
A review of the policy titled Medication Administration with a revision date of 1/2025 revealed the following:
Policy: Policy Explanation and Compliance Guidelines: 10. Review MAR {Medication Administration Record}

observation, interviews, and record review the facility failed to follow sanitary infection control practices
related to 1) proper storage and disposal of toileting items in two resident rooms (112 and 110), 2) proper
nail length for three staff members (Staff P, Staff M, Staff Q), 3) and proper hand hygiene during meal
service for one observed meal (6/23/25) during four days of survey.
Residents Affected - Some
Findings Included:
1. During an observation on 06/23/2025 at 11:10 a.m., of room [ROOM NUMBER] B a plastic urinal was
located opened on floor under the bed, with a wet area.
During an observation on 06/23/2025 at 11:04 a.m., of room [ROOM NUMBER] bathroom an adult brief
with yellow and brown markings was located in front of the toilet on the floor. (photographic evidence
obtained)
2. During an observation on 06/23/2025 at 9:44 a.m., Staff P, Registered Nurse (RN), was observed with
artificial nails longer than 1/4 inch.
During an observation on 06/23/2025 at 9:43 a.m., Staff M, RN was observed with artificial nails longer
than 1/4 inch.
During an observation on 06/25/2025 at 10:50 a.m., Staff Q, CNA was observed with artificial nails longer
than 1/4 inch.
During an interview on 06/25/20235 at 4:00 p.m., Staff B, Assistant Director of Nursing (ADON) and
Infection Preventionist (IP), stated she would expect for urinals and adult briefs to be disposed of properly
and not be on the floors. On 06/19/2025 she provided education to staff who needed to have their nails cut
down. She highlighted the dress code policy where it states nails should not be longer than a 1/4 an inch.
There is a number of nursing staff who need to go and get them cut down as they go and get their nails
done. Typically they go every 2 weeks and I am expecting for the staffs nails to be in compliance by that
time frame.
3. A lunch meal observation was conducted on 06/23/25 at 12:29 p.m. Observed Staff S, CNA serve 4
separate meal trays. No hand hygiene was performed. Staff S. then sat down next to an unidentified
resident and began assisting with the meal. Staff S was observed coughing in her hand and wiping her face
and using the same hand to feed the resident. No hand hygiene was performed throughout the observation.
On 06/25/25 at 4:12 p.m. an interview with the DON and Infection Preventionist was conducted. They stated
the expectation for staff for hand hygiene is performing hand hygiene when entering or exiting a resident
room. Also in between touching or caring for residents. Staff should also perform hand hygiene while
feeding, and in between residents. It would not be appropriate for staff to touch their face or cough into their
hand and not perform hand hygiene while feeding a resident.
