An observation on 08/07/24 at 2:03 p.m., revealed Resident # 81 remained in bed.
During an interview on 08/07/24 at 2:18 p.m., Staff D, Unit Manager (UM), Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN)
stated she talked with Resident #81 yesterday about getting up out of bed. Staff D stated she went to the
therapy department and made sure he was able to get up. Staff D stated therapy informed her Resident
#81 was able to get out of bed with a Hoyer lift. Staff D stated the plan was to get him out of bed today. She
said Resident #81 was waiting for his wounds to heal before getting up out of bed and he only wanted out
of bed an hour at a time, so it would need to be coordinated.
Review of the Weekly Non-Pressure Wound Evaluation dated 07/23/24 showed the venous wound on
Resident #81's right lower extremities (RLE) was healed. An addition review of a second Weekly
Non-Pressure Wound Evaluation dated 07/23/24 showed the venous wound on Resident #81's left lower

out of bed today.
During an interview on 08/07/24 at 2:44 p.m., Staff E, Regional Director of Operations (RDO) stated I got
the back story. Resident # 81 had not been getting out bed lately because the big guy with non-normal
human strength [the Physical Therapy Assistant (PTA)] could assist Resident # 81 out of bed by himself but
had been out for surgery. The RDO stated the nursing staff was having trouble coordinating the Hoyer lift to
get Resident #81 out of bed for the 20 to 30 minutes that he tolerated, so Resident #81 had not been
getting out of bed lately.
Review of the Task tab titled Transfers on 08/07/24 at 3:13 p.m., revealed Resident #81 had only been
assisted out of bed on 07/31/24 with a two persons physical assist with no Resident refusals during the

Honor the resident's right to request, refuse, and/or discontinue treatment, to participate in or refuse to
participate in experimental research, and to formulate an advance directive.
Based on interview and record review, the facility failed to honor a resident's decision to formulate an
advance directive and did not ensure a current copy of the Advance Directive was in the resident's medical
record for one resident (#55) of five sampled residents.
During an interview on 8/6/2024 at 4:55 p.m., Resident #55 stated, I have spoken to several nurses when I
returned from the hospital as I want to be a Full Code and change my Health Care Surrogate (HCS). I know
this conversation occurred prior to 7/2/2024. I met with the Director of Social Services (DSS), discussed the
[HCS] and request of being a full code. The DSS came back and told me everything was taken care of.
Resident #55 continued to state never receiving the requested copies from the DSS and kept checking with
the nurses regarding the changes and wanting to be a Full Code. Resident #55 stated, On [7/2/2024] the
physician stated I was capable of making my own decisions. Still, I was not changed to a Full Code. I've
seen the DSS at the nurses' cart, while the cart was at my door. Although, the DSS would state she didn't
have time right now.

stated caring on a regular basis for Resident #55. Staff O confirmed Resident #55 had been asking to be a
Full Code since return from the hospital earlier this summer. I told the DSS on a couple occasions that
Resident #55 wanted to be Full Code. I don't know why it has taken so long to complete.
An interview was conducted with the Director Social Service (DSS) on 8/7/2024 at 2:04 p.m. The DSS
stated Resident #55 requested to see her regarding wanting to be a DNR, this was completed. The DSS
continued to state the resident did request to change her HCS and this was completed. The DSS stated not
having any knowledge Resident #55 wanted to change her code status.
An interview was conducted with the Director of Nursing (DON) on 8/7/2024 at 2:15 p.m. The DON said the
process for a code change for a resident who was alert and oriented should be followed. The nurse would
contact the physician and receive the order change and ensure all documents were in order.
Review of the facility policy and procedure titled Advanced Directives with a revision date of 11/14/2018,
revealed: Policy: The center will abide by state and federal laws regarding Advanced Directives. The center

Level of Harm - Minimal harm
or potential for actual harm
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
interview and record review, the facility failed to develop and implement an effective discharge plan for one
(#449) of three residents reviewed.
Residents Affected - Few
During an interview on 8/8/2024 at 12:16 p.m. with Resident #449, she stated her discharge was not
arranged. She said she was admitted to the facility from the hospital after a motor vehicle accident. She
stated the physician stated the benefit would come from therapy. She stated, Everything was going well,
then the insurance company thought I should be discharged . I had to appeal. Each time I had to be the one
to follow up on if the appeal was granted etc. The Social Service Director (SSD) hardly assisted at all. The
[SSD] asked when I was admitted , if I would be going home, with who and if I would need home health
care at home. On 3/13/2024 the facility told me I would be discharging [the next day]. No other information
was provided to me. I arranged to borrow a walker from a friend and the facility permitted me to borrow a
wheelchair. At discharge the facility told me to go to the emergency room for the wound on my leg. The
wound orders had changed right before discharge. I repeatedly called the facility and left messages with the
[SSD] and the Nursing Home Administrator (NHA), their names were given to me at discharge. No one
responded to my calls until 3/21/2024. I was already back in the hospital, the [SSD] emailed with my
daughter.
A review of the Social Service Note dated 3/4/2024 at 12:36 p.m., signed by the SSD revealed Resident
#449 was given a Notice of Medicare Non-Coverage (NOMNC) for last covered day for 03/06/2024. The

A review of the Social Service Note dated 3/11/2024 at 15:46 p.m., signed by the SSD revealed resident's
discharge plan was to return home with her spouse when able to go upstairs to enter the home.
Review of the Discharge summary dated [DATE] at 12:28 p.m. completed by nursing revealed:

delivered by insurance. Resident shared how thankful for stay here, how great therapy was and how
wonderful nursing has been. Resident seems to have great friends and family support in the community.
A review of the Social Service Note dated 3/21/2024 at 13:20 p.m. signed by the SSD revealed, This writer
followed up with resident regarding Durable Medical Equipment (DME) and Home Health Care (HHC) after
discharge. This writer followed up with [name of DME company]. This writer will contact [name of HHC
company] to follow up regarding HHC.
During an interview on 8/8/2024 at 2:06 p.m., the SSD stated remembering Resident #449 had several
appeals due to the insurance company wanting to stop payment. The SSD stated the resident requested to
be discharged . The SSD did not know when this conversation occurred. The SSD stated not having any
documentation on additional documentation regarding discharge or when setting up the HHC. The SSD

An interview was conducted with Staff G, Restorative Aide, on 8/9/24 at 8:40 a.m., the staff member
reported responsibilities of the restorative department was assisting with showers, ROM, exercises, Walk to
Dine program, and when resident's did not have a payor source for therapy we pick them up, and put
splints/braces on. Staff G said she used to put Resident #37's splint on but did not anymore because it
caused the resident a lot of pain. The staff member reported the last time putting the resident's splint on
was last week, did not have any documentation of the application, and the resident was not on the
restorative program and had not been since approximately the beginning of the year. Staff G stated it would
be therapy's responsibility to put the splint/brace on. The staff member stated she had been asked by the
previous Unit Manager to put splint on so it was about 2 weeks ago, from what the staff member could see
the splint caused pain, the resident would yell out and only time that occurred was due to pain.
An interview was conducted with Staff I, CNA, on 8/9/4 at 8:50 a.m., the staff member reported not putting
Resident #37's splint on, restorative put it on.
During the interview with Staff I, on 8/9/24 at 8:50 a.m., Staff G reported being mistaken, therapy did not
put Resident #37's splint on, nursing did. The staff member clarified nursing was not the aides but the
nurses.
An interview was conducted with the Director of Nursing (DON) on 8/9/24 at 9:35 a.m., the DON reported
Resident #37 was not on restorative so it was on the TAR for nursing to put it on, the order was to wear as
tolerated but it did cause the resident pain. The DON confirmed there were more off's then on's on the June
and July TAR's and wasn't any documentation either in the progress notes or TAR of how long the resident
tolerated the brace/splint. The DON stated she understood the findings.
An interview was conducted with the DON on 8/9/24 at 11:21 a.m., the DON stated per Resident #37's
therapy notes, the splint had been tolerated up to 3 hours and the resident had been discharged from
therapy on 6/28/24. The DON stated the facility had a communication error related to who was responsible
