Ensure that a nursing home area is free from accident hazards and provides adequate supervision to
prevent accidents.
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
observation, record review, and interview, the facility failed to ensure padded bed side rails were provided &
properly used for 2 of 4 sampled residents reviewed for accidents, both of whom had a history of seizures
(Residents #10 and #15).
The findings included:
1) Review of the record revealed Resident #10 was admitted to the facility on [DATE]. Review of the current
care plan initiated on 11/04/20 revealed Resident #10 was at risk for seizure related injuries related to
conversion disorder with seizures or convulsions. An intervention dated 02/09/22 revealed the use of
bilateral upper half padded side rails for safety. An order dated 10/16/17 documented the use of two padded
side rails for safety. The current Minimum Data Set (MDS) assessment dated [DATE] confirmed the
diagnosis of seizures.
During an observation on 02/13/23 at 10:26 AM, Staff A, Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA), had just
finished providing personal care for Resident #10, and left the room, leaving the resident in the bed. A half
side rail, located along the middle portion of the resident's left side, was raised and a blue padded mat was
noted hooked to the side rail by a Velcro strap, and hanging down from the rail along the outer aspect of the
bed and to the floor (Photographic Evidence Obtained). At this time the right side rail was positioned up as
a quarter rail at the head of the bed, and lacked any type of pad. A supplemental observation on 02/13/23
at 12:27 PM revealed Resident #10 still in bed with the side rail padding still improperly placed on the left
side, and none on the right.
An observation on 02/14/23 at 9:11 AM revealed Resident #10 in bed with the left side rail pad hooked in
the same manner as the previous day, but more was on the floor as the bed was slightly lower than the day
before. The right side rail remained without any pad.
An observation on 02/15/23 at 10:24 AM revealed Resident #10 in bed. Both side rails lacked any padding
(Photographic Evidence Obtained).
During an interview on 02/16/23 at 10:52 AM, when asked about the blue pads in the room of Resident
#10, Staff A, CNA, stated she put the pads on the side rails when the resident was in bed. When the
surveyor informed the CNA, who had worked with Resident #10 throughout the survey, of the observations
as noted above, the CNA had no response.
During an interview on 02/16/23 at 10:57 AM, Staff B, agency Registered Nurse (RN), confirmed the order
for the bilateral padded side rails. When notified of the surveyor's observations as noted above, the RN
agreed the pads should have been utilized and placed properly on the side rails for resident safety.
2) Review of the record revealed Resident #15 was admitted to the facility on [DATE]. Review of the current
care plan initiated on 09/27/22 and corresponding orders, documented the use of padded quarter side rails
for safety, for a diagnosis of seizures. Review of the current MDS dated [DATE] confirmed the diagnosis of a
seizure disorder. A Quarterly Device/Enabler/Restraint evaluation dated 12/29/22 also documented seizure
precautions with the use of padded quarter side rails while in bed for safety, related to the diagnosis of
seizures.

Ensure that feeding tubes are not used unless there is a medical reason and the resident agrees; and
provide appropriate care for a resident with a feeding tube.
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
observation, record review, and interview, the facility failed to implement a new order for increased water
flushes via enteral (tube feeding) means, for 1 of 2 sampled residents, who was ordered the increase
related to an electrolyte imbalance (Resident #1).
The findings included:
Review of the record revealed Resident #1 was admitted to the facility on [DATE]. Further review of the
record revealed the resident received all food and fluids via a tube.
A physician progress note dated 02/13/23 revealed an elevated sodium level with a plan that increased the
water flushes with the PEG feeding (percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy/surgical placement of a feeding
tube). The tube feeding water flushes had recently been increased to 150 ml (milliliters) every 4 hours.
A Registered Dietician's (RD) progress note dated 02/14/23 documented to increase the tube feeding water
flushes to 200 ml every 4 hours due to elevated BUN (Blood urea nitrogen), a lab value related to a
person's hydration status, identified with repeat laboratory tests. This note also documented the RD was to
monitor hydration status, tube feed intake, weight trends, and labs.
A current order dated 02/14/23 documented the increase of fluids to 200 ml every four hours via the tube
feeding route was to begin at of 4 PM that same day.
An observation on 02/15/23 at 9:59 AM revealed Resident #1 in bed with the head of the bed elevated. The
tube feeding pump was set at 150 ml every four hours for the water flush (Photographic Evidence
Obtained).
On 02/16/23 at 10:05 AM, Staff C, Registered Nurse (RN), had just finished administering medications via
the tube, and started to walk away. When asked the rate of the water flush via the pump, Staff C verified it
was set for 150 ml every four hours. The surveyor left and proceeded to the nurse's station, when Staff C
arrived and asked her coworker, Staff B, agency RN (who was training the newly hired nurse, Staff C) to
verify the water flush order. Staff B verified the current order, that was to be initiated on 02/14/22, was for
the increased water flush of 200 ml every four hours.

professional principles; and all drugs and biologicals must be stored in locked compartments, separately
locked, compartments for controlled drugs.
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
observation, interview, and policy review, the facility failed to ensure safe medication storage on 1 of 5
resident units (3S), as evidenced by two observations of an unlocked and unattended medication cart on
two separate occasions (on 02/13/23), and observation of an unlocked and unattended treatment cart for at
least 45 minutes on 02/13/23.
The findings included:
Review of the policy Medication Storage in the Facility dated April 2018 documented, B. Medication rooms,
carts, and medication supplies are locked when not attended by persons with authorized access.
On 02/13/23 at 9:57 AM, the treatment cart on the 3S unit was noted unlocked and unattended. The 3S unit
was a locked unit for memory impaired residents, with a centrally located common area and nurse's station.
The unlocked treatment cart was pushed up against a wall in the common area with the drawers facing
outward (Photographic Evidence Obtained). At the time of this observation, eleven residents were noted in
the common area. Two nurses were observed at a medication cart, approximately 15 to 20 feet away, and
also in the common area. The two nurses were engaged in the morning medication pass for the residents.
Both nurses were focused on the medication cart and electronic record, leaving the cart intermittently to
administer medications, and returning to the medication cart. The Assistant Director of Nursing (ADON)
walked through the common area between the two carts, but did not notice the unlocked treatment cart. At
10:03 AM the Director of Nursing (DON) was on the unit and in the common area, but did not notice the
unlocked and unattended treatment cart. Staff E, agency Registered Nurse (RN), passed right by the
unlocked treatment cart to go down the 317-324 hallway, and did not notice the unlocked treatment cart.
During an interview on 02/13/23 at 10:08 AM, upon surveyor introduction, Staff E, agency RN, stated it was
her first day at the facility, and last night's nurse had stayed to help for awhile.
During the continued observation on 02/13/23 at 10:15 AM, the night nurse had gone into a resident room
while Staff E continued with the morning medication pass. Staff E left the medication cart unlocked and
unattended in the common area, and walked down the hallway nearest the elevators. At 10:16 AM the night
nurse returned to the medication cart, noticed it was unlocked, and upon return of Staff E, the night nurse
reminded her to lock the cart when she left.
An observation on 02/13/23 at 10:44 AM revealed the treatment cart remained in the same location,
unlocked and unattended, with multiple residents in the common area. Different staff were in and out of the
common area throughout the day, but there were times that the area was unattended by any staff. An
observation at 11:12 AM revealed the treatment cart was now locked. The treatment cart was used for
wound care for all residents of the 3S unit and contained wound supplies and medications. The treatment
cart was observed being used for the provision of wound care by a direct care nurse on at least two
occasions during the survey week.
On 02/13/23 at 3:29 PM, the 3S medication cart was pushed up against the nurse's station, with the
drawers facing out toward the common area, and it was noted unlocked again (Photographic Evidence

Obtained). Staff E, RN, was sitting behind the desk working on her computer. At 3:32 PM when asked if
there was any reason she had left the medication cart opened twice that day, Staff E jumped up and ran
around the nurse's station stating, I left the cart opened? When asked again why she left the medication
cart opened, the RN stated, No reason . just busy . and this is my first day. When told about the unlocked
and unattended treatment cart that same morning, the RN was unaware, but agreed both carts should be
locked when unattended.
Observations of the 3S unit during the survey week revealed at least two of the 30 cognitively impaired
residents, Resident #71 and Resident #84, were observed independently mobile throughout the unit.
Resident #71 was transferred into the 3S unit on 11/16/22. Review of the Minimum Data Set (MDS)
assessment dated [DATE] documented the resident as severely cognitively impaired, with a Brief Interview
for Mental Status (BIMS) score of 3, on a 0 to 15 scale. Resident #71 was usually in her wheelchair, but
was seen by the surveyor independently ambulating from the common area to the nurse's station on one
occasion, and from the common area into the staff bathroom in the nurse's station on another occasion.
Resident #84 was admitted to the facility into the 3S unit on 01/22/22. Review of the MDS dated [DATE]
documented the resident as cognitively impaired with a BIMS score of 5. On at least two occasions during
the survey, the resident was noted independently wheeling herself from her room into the common area,
the dining room, and back. Because of the location of this resident's room, she would pass by the nurse's
station in front of where the medication cart was stored, in order to get to the common area or dining room.

**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** 2) Resident
#28 was identified as being on Transmission Based Precautions (TBP) because of a wound infection. The
resident was admitted to the facility on [DATE] and developed a pressure ulcer of the left heel on 01/30/23.
A wound culture was ordered and completed.
Residents Affected - Few
Review of the laboratory results revealed an MRSA (Methicillin Resistant Staph Aureus) infection that was
reported to the facility on [DATE] at 11:31 AM. This report identified which antibiotics were sensitive
(meaning appropriate for use), with clindamycin on the report as appropriate for treatment. Review of the
physician orders revealed the clindamycin was not ordered or initiated until 02/07/23, five days after the
reported infection.
Review of the wound care physician's visit report dated 02/06/23 documented the antibiotic choice was
clindamycin.
During an interview on 02/15/23 at 2:54 PM, when asked the process for receipt of abnormal culture
results, Staff F, Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN), explained when a report comes in, they speak with the
physician to report the findings and to see if they want any additional orders. When asked what happened
with the wound culture for Resident #28 and the delay in antibiotic ordering and use, Staff F stated she was
not sure what happened, but she was the one who contacted the physician on the day the clindamycin was
ordered (02/07/23). Staff F confirmed she worked on the resident's unit on 02/02/23, 02/03/23, 02/05/23,
and 02/06/23, but again stated she did not know how that culture result was missed.
Based on interview and record review, the facility failed to ensure antibiotic stewardship for antibiotic use for
1 of 1 sampled residents reviewed for antibiotic stewardship (Resident #76); and failed to provide antibiotics
for infected wound in a timely manner for 1 of 1 sampled residents (Resident #28).
The findings included:
A review of the facility's policy titled, Antibiotic Stewardship Policy, dated 03/02/21, documented the
purpose for our Antibiotic Stewardship Program is to monitor the use of antibiotics in our residents.
When a culture and sensitivity (C&S) is ordered, lab results and current clinical situation will be
communicated to the prescriber as soon as available to determine if antibiotic therapy should be started,
continued, modified, or discontinued.
1) An observation was conducted of Resident #76 on 02/14/22 at 11:00 AM. The resident was observed
sitting up in bed with a private duty aid (PDA) at his bedside. Resident #76 had a loud coarse wet sounding
cough. The PDA stated the resident had had that cough for some time.
Record review revealed Resident #76 was admitted to the facility on [DATE]. A comprehensive assessment
dated [DATE] documented the resident had severe cognitive impairment.
A review of Resident #76's orders revealed an order dated 11/19/22 for nebulizer/breathing treatment every

vaccination status will be conducted within five (5) working days of the resident's admission if not
conducted prior to admission.
1) Review of the record revealed Resident #21 was admitted to the facility on [DATE]. The family
representative for Resident #21 consented to the receipt of the pneumococcal vaccine on 09/15/22. Review
of the record lacked any evidence of administration of that vaccine. During an interview on 02/16/23 at 9:35
AM, the Staff Developer/Interim Infection Control Preventionist (ICP) explained Resident #21 had infections
in September and December that prevented them from administering the vaccine at that time, but agreed
as of the survey, Resident #21 still had not received the Pneumococcal vaccine, and had no reason for the
delay.
2) Review of the record revealed Resident #78 was admitted to the facility on [DATE]. Review of the record
lacked any information related to the offering or administration of the influenza and pneumococcal vaccines.
The Interim ICP was asked to locate and provide the information. During an interview on 02/16/23 at 9:28
AM, the Interim ICP provided documentation of consent for both vaccines as of 12/04/22, more than 5 days
after admission to the facility. The Interim ICP further stated Resident #78 had a virus the end of December
(12/29/22), which would have excluded her from receiving the vaccines at that time, but agreed to the
continued lack of administration of both vaccines.
3) Review of the record revealed Resident #97 was admitted to the facility on [DATE]. Further review of the
record lacked any information related to the offering or administration of the influenza and pneumococcal
vaccines. During an interview on 02/16/23 at 12:34 PM, the Interim ICP provided evidence Resident #97
had consented to receive both vaccines upon admission to the facility, explained the orders were not written
and or entered into the electronic system, and thus the resident did not receive either vaccine.

Report COVID19 data to residents and families.
Level of Harm - Potential for
minimal harm
Based on interview and record review, the facility failed to proactively notify residents, their representatives,
and families of any positive COVID-19 cases, by 5 PM the next calendar day following the occurrence, for
the past two outbreaks reported by the facility (12/29/22 and 02/10/23).
Residents Affected - Many
The findings included:
During an interview on 02/13/23 at 1:40 PM, the Staff Developer/Interim Infection Control Preventionist
(ICP) explained the facility's last resident COVID-19 outbreak began on 12/28/22, resulting in eleven
positive residents, all residing on one unit. The ICP explained that no staff were positive at that time. This
was confirmed by the Resident COVID-19 infection log that documented positive residents on 12/29/22,
12/30/22, and 01/04/23. Review of the Employee COVID-19 Tracking Log revealed one positive staff
member, Staff M, Registered Nurse (RN), as of 02/10/23. The Interim ICP stated the Nursing Home
Administrator (NHA) would be responsible for the notification to the residents, their representatives, and
families.
During an interview on 02/15/23 at 10:41 AM, when asked how the residents, their representatives, and
families were notified of any COVID-19 positive case, the NHA stated there was a COVID Hotline number
for the residents or families to call to get an update. When asked if that meant a resident or family would
need to call into the Hotline number on a daily basis to see if there were any new cases, the NHA agreed
and again confirmed she updated the information on the Hotline with each new case, but does not have any
method in place to call out or notify residents and families. When asked when the last update to the Hotline
was made, the NHA stated with the December 2022 outbreak. When asked if she updated the Hotline with
the last positive employee, Staff M, as of 02/10/23, the NHA stated she did not, as that employee had not
worked on the previous day, 02/09/23 or the day she tested positive on 02/10/23, and none of the residents
she cared for or staff she worked with tested positive. Review of the employee timecard for Staff M
confirmed she did not work on 02/09/23 or 02/10/23, as she called in sick both days as per the ICP, but she
had worked the previous three days on the 7 AM to 3 PM shift.

Perform COVID19 testing on residents and staff.
Level of Harm - Potential for
minimal harm
Based on interview and record review, the facility failed to ensure for each instance of resident COVID-19
testing, that all testing results were maintained in the resident record.
Residents Affected - Many
The findings included:
During an interview on 02/13/23 at 1:40 PM, the Staff Developer/Interim Infection Control Preventionist
(ICP) explained they were able to do contact tracing testing for the past two outbreaks, one in December
2022 that encompassed the 3S unit, and one in February 2023 that encompassed the 3N unit. When asked
where in the resident record the COVID-19 results were maintained, the Interim ICP explained, if a resident
was positive, a progress note would be in the Electronic Medical Record (EMR) and the actual test results
are all stored together, but not in the resident's medical record.
During this continued interview, the regulation was reviewed with the ICP, and she voiced understanding
and agreed they had not been ensuring all testing was maintained in the resident's record.

Educate residents and staff on COVID-19 vaccination, offer the COVID-19 vaccine to eligible residents and
staff after education, and properly document each resident and staff member's vaccination status.
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
record review, interview, and policy review, the facility failed to ensure the provision of COVID-19
vaccinations for 3 of 5 sampled Residents (Resident #21, #78, and #97).
The findings included:
Review of the policy Infection Control: COVID-19 Vaccination - Resident effective 10/19/20 documented,
Screening - All residents prior to admission to the home, shall be screened for their COVID-19 vaccination
status. Offer of Vaccination - Any resident without evidence of full vaccination status will be educated on the
risks and benefits of being vaccinated for COVID-19 and offered the vaccine to be administered upon it's
next availability. Evidence of this education and consent or declination will be signed, dated, and scanned to
the resident's medical record.
1) Review of the record revealed Resident #21 was admitted to the facility on [DATE]. Further review of the
record revealed the resident's last COVID-19 vaccination was 02/07/21, as documented by Florida Shots (a
website that tracks all vaccines). The Interim Infection Control Preventionist (ICP) was asked to locate
documentation of either a consent or declination for the COVID-19 bivalent booster, the most recent
booster available.
During an interview on 02/16/23 at 9:35 AM, the Interim ICP explained Resident #21 had infections in
September 2022 and December 2022, which would make her ineligible for a COVID-19 booster at that time.
When asked the process for obtaining and administering any COVID-19 booster, the ICP explained a list of
residents who wish to receive the booster is maintained, and when there are enough residents and staff
who want it, they have a COVID clinic to administer the vaccine. The ICP was asked when the last few
COVID clinics were held, prior to their December 2022 outbreak.
During a subsequent interview on 02/16/23 at 12:36 PM, the ICP stated they had COVID vaccine clinics on
10/11/22, 10/13/22, and 10/28/22. The ICP agreed that Resident #21 had been missed.
2) Review of the record revealed Resident #78 was admitted to the facility on [DATE]. Further review of the
record documented consent required under the COVID vaccination information. During and interview on
02/16/23 at 9:28 AM, the ICP explained the resident got COVID-19 the end of December (12/29/22), and
review of the previous COVID clinic sign up sheet on 10/28/22 did not capture Resident #78.
3) Review of the record revealed Resident #97 was admitted to the facility on [DATE]. Review of the record
documented the resident refused the Bivalent booster. The ICP was asked to locate and provide the
education and declination of the booster.
During an interview on 02/16/23 at 9:31 AM, the ICP explained she had just spoken to Resident #97 who
said she refused the Bivalent booster because she had missed the second booster and thought she did not
qualify. The ICP stated she educated the resident today and she subsequently consented to receive the
Bivalent booster.
