Provide care and assistance to perform activities of daily living for any resident who is unable.
Level of Harm - Minimal harm
or potential for actual harm
Based on observations, interviews, and record reviews, the facility failed to ensure that residents who were
unable to carry out activities of daily living (ADLs) received necessary services to maintain good grooming
and personal hygiene for two (Residents #48 and #19) of three residents reviewed for ADL care from a total
survey sample of 46 residents.
Residents Affected - Few
The findings include:
1. A review of Resident #48's medical record revealed an admission date of 09/01/23 with diagnoses
including Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), acute chronic diastolic (congestive) hear failure, muscle
weakness (generalized), pleural effusion, legal blindness, end stage renal disease (ESRD),
hyperthyroidism, arteriosclerotic heart disease of native coronary artery, major depressive disorder,
generalized anxiety disorder, and hypertension.
On 11/05/24 at 10:20 AM, an observation was made of Resident #48's fingernails which were long with
brown matter underneath. (photographic evidence obtained)
On 11/07/24 at 8:56 AM, an observation was made of Resident #48's fingernails which remained long with
brown matter underneath. (photographic evidence obtained)
A review of Resident #48's annual minimum data set (MDS) assessment, dated 08/05/24, revealed that he
had a brief interview for mental status (BIMS) score of 15 out of 15 possible points, indicating intact
cognition. No hallucinations or delusions were documented, no physical or verbal behavioral symptoms
directed towards others, and no rejection of care or wandering behaviors were documented. An interview
with the resident for daily preferences or daily activities was not documented. The resident had no
impairment of the upper or lower extremities; required supervision or touching assistance with eating and
oral hygiene; required substantial/maximum assistance with toileting, shower/bathing, upper and lower body
dressing, and putting on/taking off footwear and personal hygiene. He required substantial/maximum
assistance with mobility. He did not receive scheduled or as needed (prn) pain medications.
A review of Resident #48's care plan documented a focus area for Activities of Daily Living (ADL)
Performance Deficit related to activity intolerance and end-stage renal disease (ESRD). The care plan goal
was to improve the current level of function in at least one of the resident's ADLs by the next review date.
The care plan interventions included provision of personal hygiene and oral care. The resident required
staff participation with personal hygiene and oral care. The date the intervention was created was
documented as 9/13/2022.

Residents Affected - Few
had worked at the facility for two months. She explained that she made care rounds every two hours. During
care rounds, she would make a visual head-to-toe check of residents assigned to her. The visual
head-to-toe check included looking at fingernail length and condition. The process for completing her
rounds began with checking the resident's vital signs and providing breakfast. After breakfast, she provided
ADL care, gave her assigned residents a shower, and got them ready for therapy. She explained that she
was familiar with Resident #48 and his care needs. He was blind and received eye drops. She stated she
had not clipped the resident's fingernails because there had been no access to nail clippers for some time.
The nail clippers were usually located in the clean utility room and the person in charge of supplies said nail
clippers were on backorder. She stated nails extending approximately a half a centimeter beyond the nail
bed were considered too long and could be considered a scratching hazard. At 9:11 AM, CNA A was
accompanied to the resident's room. She observed the resident's fingernails and reported that they were
too long and looked like weapons.
On 11/07/24 at 9:12 AM, Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) B was interviewed and reported that he had
worked at the facility for three months. He explained that nurses were responsible for conducting a
head-to-toe skin assessment of residents once a week, which included looking at fingernail length.
Residents also received a skin assessment when they received either a bed bath or shower two times per
week, which included looking at fingernail length. He stated he always carried fingernail clippers in his
pocket, kept a supply of clippers in a drawer at the nurses' station, and also in his personal work desk.
Fingernail clippers could also be found in the clean utility room. If CNAs could not locate fingernail clippers
in those areas, they could ask their nurse or go to the central supply room to obtain a pair. He also
instructed CNAs to take fingernail clippers with them when they provided bed baths and showers. LPN B
stated nail length that was considered as excessive was subjective. He made sure to first ask the resident
of the fingernail length they preferred. Some male and female residents did not mind long fingernails. For
his non-verbal residents, he ensured fingernail length was short enough to prevent them from scratching
themselves. On 11/07/24 at 9:19 AM, LPN B was accompanied to Resident #48's room. He observed the
length of the resident's fingernails and stated Resident #48's fingernails were excessively long. LPN B
reviewed a nursing progress note dated 10/28/24 (10 days prior to this interview), which documented that a
skin check was completed and the resident's nails were cleaned and clipped. LPN B stated the resident's
fingernails could not have been cleaned and clipped on the documented date because the fingernails could
not have grown to their present length within 10 days.
On 11/07/24 at 9:24 AM, an observation was made of two pairs of fingernail clippers in a desk drawer at
the east nursing station.
On 11/07/24 at 9:26 AM, CNA C was interviewed and reported that she had worked at the facility for 17
years. She was responsible for stocking the main central supply room and the east and west wing clean
utility rooms. She displayed five boxes of small, medium and large nail clippers in the main central supply
room, each box containing 24 clippers. The main supply room also had a large plastic bag full of various
sizes of fingernail clippers. She said that she stocked the clean utility rooms with various items, including
fingernail clippers two or three times a week and reported that CNAs could not say that they could not clip
fingernails because they did not have supplies.
2. A review of Resident #19's medical record revealed an admission date of 1/21/2020 with diagnoses
including a contracted right hand, need for assistance with personal care, cognitive communication
disorder, other symptoms involving the musculoskeletal system, other cervical disc displacement, tremors,
unspecified dementia, psychotic disturbance, mood disturbance, and anxiety.

Ensure that a nursing home area is free from accident hazards and provides adequate supervision to
prevent accidents.
Based on observations, record reviews, interviews, and a review of facility policy, the facility failed to ensure
that the resident environment remained as free of accident hazards as was possible for one (Resident #72)
of one resident reviewed for accident hazards out of 46 residents in the total survey sample. Medicated
ointments in plastic medication cups were left at the resident's bedside. Resident #72 had not been
assessed for capability of self-administering/applying medicated ointments. No self-administration
assessment was found in the record or provided by the facility during the survey. No care plan was located
in the record indicating that the resident was capable of safely self-administering medications/medicated
ointments.
The findings include:
On 11/04/24 at 10:43 AM, two medication cups were observed on the resident's bedside table.
(photographic evidence obtained) An interview was conducted with the resident at the time of this
observation, who reported that the cups contained her medications, which were the two creams she
applied to both her hands for psoriasis. She stated, The nurse brought them in here and left them over
there. I usually put them on myself.
On 11/05/24 at 10:28 AM, two medications cups were observed on the bedside table. (photographic
evidence obtained ) An interview was conducted with the resident at the time of the observation, who
confirmed that the cups contained creams she applied to her hands and they were not the same ones from
the previous day.
On 11/07/24 9:33 AM, two medication cups were observed on the bedside table (photographic evidence
obtained) An interview was conducted with the resident at the time of the observation, who confirmed that
the two cups containing medicated creams were left over from the previous day.
A review of Resident #72's medical record revealed an admission date of 02/03/23 with diagoses including
encephalopathy, need for assistance with personal care, other signs and symptoms involving cognitive
function and awareness, and psoriasis. No Medication Self-Administration Assessment form was located in
the resident's record.
A review of Resident #72's Quarterly minimum data set (MDS) assessment, dated 07/23/24, revealed she
had a brief interview for mental status (BIMS) score of 13 out of 15 possible points, indicating intact
cognition. She required substantial/maximal staff assistance with toileting, transfers, and personal hygiene.
A review of Resident #72's active physician's orders revealed: Clobetasol Propionate External Cream

No care plans were found in the record indicating that Resident #72 had been assessed and was capable
of self-administering medications or medicated ointments.
On 11/07/24 at 9:21 AM, an interview was conducted with Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) D. She stated
there were no residents on her unit who self-administered their medications or treatments. She was asked
to explain the facility's process for allowing a resident to self-administer medications or treatments. She
explained that the facility had an assessment that was completed by a nurse or the Unit Manager to
determine whether or not the residents were capable of self-administering medications. She was asked if
the nurse was required to observe the resident during self-administration of the medication or treatments.
She replied, Yes. She was asked where the medications were stored if the resident self-administered. She
stated, I need to check the policy. She was asked if the nurse was permitted to leave medications or
treatments at the bedside for the resident to administer for themselves. She replied, If they have an
assessment that confirmed they can self administer, but it must be care planned.
On 11/07/24 at 9:38 AM, an interview was conducted with LPN B, the Unit Manager for the East unit. He
stated he was familiar with Resident #72 and the condition of the skin on both her hands. He was aware
that she received creams for the treatment of her hands. He stated, Yes, she has creams she gets three
times daily that she puts on. He was asked if she ever refused her treatments. He replied, No. He was
asked to explain the process for allowing a resident to self-administer medications or treatments. He stated,
The care plan must reflect the self-administration of medications and the resident has to have a BIMS of 13
or above. That's all as far as I know. He was asked if the nurse was required to observe when the resident
self-administered medications or treatments. He stated, Yes, the nurse must be there.
On 11/07/24 at 12:20 PM, the completed Medication Self-Administration Assessment Form for Resident
#72 was requested from the Director of Nursing (DON). It was never provided.
On 11/07/24 at 2:21 PM, the DON was asked to provide any additional documentation as evidence that
Resident #72 had been assessed for self-administration of medications/treatments. No further evidence
was provided.

**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
observations, interviews, record review, and facility policy and procedure review, the facility failed to ensure
that residents who needed respiratory care, were provided such care, consistent with professional
standards of practice, for one (Resident #34) of one resident reviewed for respiratory care, from a total
survey sample of 46 residents. Resident #34 was not receiving oxygen at the flow rate ordered by her
physician.
Residents Affected - Few
The findings include:
On 11/04/24 at 11:20 AM, Resident #34 was observed fully dressed sitting in her wheelchair inside her
room wearing a nasal cannula with an oxygen tank on the back of her wheelchair. She reported receiving
oxygen at a flow rate of 1.5 liters per minute (L/min) when she was in her wheelchair and 3.0 L/min when in
bed and sleeping. Resident #34's oxygen concentrator located at bedside was observed to be set at 3.0
L/min.
On 11/07/24 at 10:11 AM, Resident #34 was observed fully dressed in the main dining room sitting in her
wheelchair wearing her nasal cannula with the portable oxygen tank located on the back of her wheelchair
turned off. When the resident was asked for permission to observe her oxygen tank settings, she replied, I
have not had the opportunity to turn the machine on. Resident #34 asked Activities Assistant M to turn on
her oxygen. Activities Assistant M turned on the portable oxygen tank that was located at the back of the
resident's wheelchair. The flow rate was set at 1.5 L/min.
On 11/07/24 at 11:33 AM, Resident #34 was observed transferring herself from her wheelchair to her bed.
She was not wearing her nasal cannula but her oxygen concentrator was observed in the on position with a
flow rate set at 3L/min.

oxygen as ordered.
A review of the resident's Medication Administration Records (MARs) for October and November 2024
revealed that oxygen was provided as ordered by the resident's physician.
Residents Affected - Few
(copy obtained)
On 11/7/24 at 11:21 AM, Registered Nurse (RN) E reported that the facility's portable oxygen tanks could
hold 10 - 15 liters of oxygen. Staff were expected to check oxygen tanks frequently.
On 11/07/24 at 11:36 AM, RN E verified that Resident #34's oxygen concentrator, located at her bedside,
had a flow rate set at 3L/min, and stated the oxygen concentrator should have been set at 4L/min. Nursing
staff provided ongoing monitoring of the resident's oxygen therapy. Nursing was responsible for ensuring
that the resident was receiving the correct oxygen flow rate per the physician's order. Correct oxygen flow
rate settings were identified by checking the physician's orders. Nursing staff on the 11-7 PM shift were
responsible for changing the resident's oxygen tubing. Correct flow rate settings were communicated from
one nurse to another via shift change reports and reviewing orders in the computer. Resident #34 did not
refuse oxygen therapy, but she would sometimes rush to leave her room and nursing then had to track her
down.
On 11/07/24 at 12:33 PM, the Director of Nursing (DON) confirmed that correct oxygen settings were
identified by verifying the order in the computer or by calling the physician.
On 11/07/24 at 1:03 PM, the DON stated nursing was responsible for changing the oxygen settings on the
concentrator and on the portable oxygen tank located on the back of Resident #34's wheelchair. When
asked whether anyone else could or did change the settings, the DON replied, No, nursing.
A review of the facility's policy and procedure titled Oxygen Administration (implemented on 03/2024),
revealed:
Oxygen is administered to residents who need it, consistent with professional standards of practice, the
comprehensive person-centered care plans, and the residents' goals and preferences.
Policy Explanation and Compliance Guidelines: 1. Oxygen is administered under orders of a physician,
except in the case of an emergency . 2. Personnel authorized to initiate oxygen therapy include physicians,
RNs, LPNs, and respiratory therapists.

and procedure review, the facility failed to follow proper sanitation and food handling practices to prevent
the outbreak of foodborne illness with the potential to affect all residents who consumed foods from the
facility's kitchen. The facility failed to 1) Date mark open packages of croutons and tea bags, 2) Clean
grease build-up inside and around the door area of the convection oven, 3) Clean grease and food
substances from the inside door area and oven floor, 4) Clean grease and food debris from the oven tray, 5)
Clean food debris stuck on and around the safety guard of the mixer, 6) Clean food debris stuck on the
meat slicer, 7) Clean one of two microwaves located in the east unit nourishment room, 8) Clean the ice
machine dispenser tray located in the west unit nourishment room, and 9) Address condensation build-up
in the walk-in freezer. Food handling and sanitation are important in health care settings serving nursing
home residents. Unsafe food handling practices represent a potential source of pathogen exposure.
The findings include:
A tour of the kitchen was conducted on 11/04/24 at 9:40 AM. During the tour, no date markings were
observed on one open package of croutons or one open package of tea bags located on the rack in the dry
storage room. Condensation build-up was observed in the walk-in freezer and water leaks were observed
on the floor coming from the walk-in freezer. Observation of the open package of croutons and tea bags,
water on the floor around the walk-in freezer area, and condensation build-up in the walk-in freezer were
made again on 11/05/24 at 8:51 AM. (photographic evidence obtained)
A follow-up tour of the kitchen was conducted on 11/06/24 at 10:45 AM. During the tour, the convection
oven next to the oven was covered with food grime and grease build-up. The inside oven door area and
oven floor next to the convection oven were covered with grease and food substances. The oven tray was
filled with grease and dried food debris. The mixer located across from the meat slicer had food debris stuck
on and around the safety guard. Food debris was stuck on the meat slicer. The inside top area of the
microwave, located in the east unit nourishment room, was filled with food debris, and the west unit
nourishment room's ice machine's dispenser tray was covered with a white substance. (photographic
evidence obtained)
On 11/7/24 at 1:23 PM, another observation was made of the open package of croutons and tea bags in
the dry storage room, condensation build-up in the walk-in freezer, the convection oven remained covered
with food grime and grease build-up, and the inside oven door area and oven floor were covered with
grease and food substances. The oven tray was filled with grease and dried food debris, and the mixer
located across from the meat slicer had food debris stuck on and around the safety guard. (photographic
evidence obtained)

foods. The facility's policy around date marking food was to add the open date, use by date, and discard
after three days. Cooks were responsible for cleaning the meat slicer and mixer. [NAME] K stated the menu
had not required kitchen staff to use the mixer. Kitchen equipment was cleaned each Wednesday. Dietary
aides were responsible for cleaning the microwaves and ice machines in the nourishment rooms. When
asked to explain the condensation build-up in the freezer, [NAME] K replied, It was reported to the Certified
Dietary Manager (CDM). The freezer shields would get stuck and the door will open itself if you're not
paying attention.
On 11/07/24 at 12:51 PM, Maintenance Director L reported that Maintenance requests were received from
staff verbally and through the computer. He added verbal requests to the computer. He was aware of the
condensation build-up in the walk-in freezer. He said the gasket was replaced twice and Maintenance was
currently monitoring. He reported the freezer issue to the vendor on 10/29/24 via a verbal conversation. The
vendor stated they would stop by the next day. There was no documented evidence of the request for
service. There had been no follow-up with the vendor since 10/29/24.
A review of the facility's policy and procedure titled Food Safety Requirements (undated), revealed:

Strategies for Achieving Long-term Compliance. 4. Establish First-In-First-Out (FIFO) Procedures. Page 31.
https://www.fda.gov/media/164194/download (Accessed on 5/24/2024): Product rotation is important for
both quality and safety reasons. First-In-First Out (FIFO) means that the first batch of product prepared and
placed in storage should be the first one sold or used. Date marking foods as required by the Food Code
facilitates the use of a FIFO procedure in refrigerated, ready-to-eat, TCS foods. The FIFO concept limits the
potential for pathogen growth, encourages product rotation, and documents compliance with
time/temperature requirements. Equipment, Utensils, and Linens. 4-601.11 Equipment, Food-Contact
Surfaces, Nonfood-Contact Surfaces, and Utensils. 4-6 Cleaning of Equipment and Utensils, 4-601
