An observation was conducted on 4/2/2024 at 2:36 PM of Resident #9's bed. No side rails were observed
to Resident #9's bed.
Residents Affected - Some
An interview was conducted on 4/2/2024 at 1:00 PM with Staff N, Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN). Staff N,
LPN stated residents on psychotropic medications should have orders in place for behavioral and side
effect monitoring, which is documented every shift.
An interview was conducted on 4/3/2024 at 9:34 AM with Staff M, Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) and Unit
Manager (UM). Staff M, LPN UM stated the facility mainly had two types of beds. One of the beds had built
in side rails and the other type of bed required the side rails to be attached by the maintenance staff. If a
resident is assessed to not have a side rail, the beds with the built in side rails have the side rails zipped
tied down by the maintenance staff. If a resident is ordered a side rail and they are in a bed with built in side
rails, one side rail remains zip tied to the frame while the other one is released for the resident to use as
indicated in the Side Rail Evaluation. If a resident is ordered a side rail and they are in a bed without built in
side rails, a request to attach the appropriate side rail is put in and addressed by maintenance staff.
Following the interview, observations of Resident #6 and Resident #9's bed were conducted with Staff M,
LPN UM. Staff M, LPN UM address Resident #6 and Resident #9 did not have side rails in use. Staff M,
LPN UM reviewed Resident #6's and Resident #9's Side Rails Evaluations and addressed the residents
should have side rails to their beds.
An interview was conducted on 4/3/2024 at 1:34 PM with the facility's Director of Nursing (DON). The DON
stated she conducted a facility audit and performed side rail assessments for each resident in the facility.
The DON also stated she put orders in each resident's medical record who required a side rail and
provided the maintenance staff with a list of the resident's requiring side rails so they could be put into
place. The DON was not able to state why the side rails were not put into place as ordered.
An interview was conducted on 4/3/2024 at 2:20 PM with the facility's Maintenance Director (MD). The MD
stated he is directed by the DON to either put side rails on the resident beds of to remove/secure the side
rails not in use. The MD also stated Resident #6's bed was supposed to have a side rail in use and both of
the side rails should not have been zip tied to the bed frame.
An interview was conducted on 4/3/2024 at 2:58 PM with the facility's Regional Director of Operations
(RDO), DON, and MD. The RDO stated the MD was informed of the residents who required side rails. The
MD stated he assigned the bed rail project to his assistant with specific directions related to which
resident's required side rails and which side of the resident's bed required a side rail. The MD also stated
his assistant did not carry out the task as directed and they were not able to state why the task was not
completed correctly. The DON stated she performed an audit to ensure the appropriate side rails were in
place to resident beds, which was spot on, but now the side rails are not in place as they should be. The
DON also stated medication monitoring should be conducted in accordance with the physician's order and
addressed the missing documentation for Resident's #3, #6, and #7 in the monitoring logs.
A review of the facility policy titled Proper Use of Bed Rails, last revised on 7/25/2022, revealed under the

the purpose of this policy is to provide a reliable process for the proper and consistent use of assistive
devices for those residents requiring equipment to maintain or improve function and dignity. The facility will
provide assistive devices for residents who need them. The nursing, dietary, social services, and therapy
departments will work together to ensure the availability of devices, such as for ordering and replacement.
Record review revealed Resident #79 was admitted to the facility on [DATE] with diagnoses that included
Dementia, Anxiety, and Dysphagia. The care plan initiated on 06/28/23 revealed Resident #79 had impaired
cognitive function and impaired thought process due to his Dementia.

Resident #79 last night and noticed that his hands clamped tight into a fist. She did not remember seeing
him like this in the past. She wanted to see how much movement he had and whether he was able to open
both hands into a functional position. According to the Rehab Director, when she opened Resident #79's
right hand, he brought his left hand over in a functional position and was trying to push her fingers away
from his hands. This showed that Resident #79 does have some active movement. She will further assess
to see if he will benefit from splinting and a range of motion program.
Review of the Occupational Therapist (OT) Evaluation and Plan of Treatment dated 01/25/24 revealed the
following: Resident #79 will be trialed on resting hand splints for tone control, prevent further flexion, and
encourage extension of digits in hands and wrists. In preparation for splint use, the therapist will introduce
palm guards to begin to accustom the patient to having items in his hands to aid in his transition to tolerate
splints.

resident's nutritional status. This process includes identifying and assessing each resident's nutritional
status and risk factors and evaluating/ analyzing the assessment information. Developing and consistently
implementing pertinent approaches, monitoring the effectiveness of interventions, and revising them as
necessary. The newly recorded resident weight should be compared to the previously registered weight. A
significant change in weight is defined as a. 5% change in weight in 1 month (30 days) b. 7.5% change in
weight in 3 months (90 days) C. 10% change in weight in 6 months (180 days).

tube feeding was noted with Jevity 1.5 (tube feeding formulary) at 55 milliliters (ml) an hour. The tube
feeding bag was at the 400 ml mark out of a 1000 ml capacity bottle.
An interview was conducted on 01/23/24 at 3:15 PM, with Staff R, Registered Nurse (RN), who stated she
arrived at the facility at 6:45 AM this morning and did not touch the tube feeding bag or replace it. Staff R
stated the tube feeding was started by the night nurse. Staff R stated she had stopped the tube feeding at
8:30 AM this morning because Resident #58 was walking around the facility with the tube feeding
connected.
An interview was conducted on 01/23/24 at 3:19 PM with Staff J, Unit Manager, who stated that for tube
feeding orders, the nurses would take the tube feeding bottles from the supply room and the set-up kit,
which consists of the tube feeding kit and the water kit. The tube feeding formula is then poured into the
bag and added to the top level around the 1000 ml level. Some residents' tube feedings may be held for 4
hours for social time and activities. Staff J said that once the tube feeding bag is started, it is only touched
or refilled once it is completed and a new tube feeding bag is

name of formulary, and the rate. When asked about the time that is written on the tube feeding bag, she
said that it is the actual time that the tube feeding was hung and started.
In an observation conducted on 01/24/24 at 8:57 AM, Resident #58's tube feeding was observed to be set
with Jevity 1.5 at 55 ml an hour. The tube feeding showed that it started this morning at 6:25 AM by the 11
PM to 7 AM nurse. The tube feeding bag was noted at the 350 ml mark out of the 1000 ml capacity bottle.
In this observation, Staff R was asked if she was the one who started the new bag of tube feeding this
morning, and she said no. Staff R further said that it was the night nurse who started the tube feeding bag.
The surveyor questioned the tube feeding bag observed at the 350 ml mark when the new bag was only
started at 6:25 AM. Staff R stated that maybe the night nurse did not fill the bag to capacity level but could
not say for sure.
In an observation conducted on 01/24/24 at 2:47 PM, Resident #58 was noted in bed. Closer observation
showed the same tube feeding bag that was observed earlier was still noted at the 350 ml mark.
The Weights and Vitals Summary revealed the following weights for Resident #58 as follows:
153.6 pounds on 01/04/24,
149.4 pounds on 01/18/24,
145.4 pounds on 01/21/24.
This showed a significant weight loss of 5.3% in less than one month. There were no weights obtained or
documented weekly for the first three weeks from the readmission on Resident #58.
Review of a 'weight change note', dated 01/08/24, revealed Resident #58 had 'a significant weight loss for
the last two months. The weight loss's etiology was unknown, and the current tube feeding was meeting
nutritional needs.'
Review of the nutrition progress note dated 01/22/24 revealed that Resident #58 had 8.2 pounds weight
loss in 3 weeks. A goal should be in place for gradual weight gain to Ideal Body Weight (IBW). In this note,
Resident #58 tube feeding was increased to Jevity 1.5 at 60 ml an hour running at 20 hours.
An interview was conducted on 01/24/24 at 4:18 PM with Staff O, Registered Dietitian, who stated that
when she identified the significant weight loss on 01/22/24, she increased the tube feeding order from 55
ml an hour to 60 ml an hour. When the surveyor asked why the new tube feeding rate of 60 ml only started
today, she said that nursing thought the order was a mistake and changed it back to 55 ml an hour. Staff O
said that she spoke to nursing staff and that the tube feeding order was changed back to 60 ml an hour to
meet the resident's nutritional needs better.
2. Resident #34 was readmitted to the facility on [DATE] with diagnoses that included Gastrostomy,
Psychotic disturbances, and Dementia.

An interview was conducted on 01/25/24 at 11:00 AM with Staff C, Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN), who
stated she has worked at the facility for 2 months. The LPN stated most of the resident beds have at least 1
siderail. The nurse assesses the resident for siderail safety, there is an assessment in the computer, but she
has not had to complete the assessment form because those were done for the resident before she started
working at the facility. If there is an incident that happens such as a fall, then she would have to reassess
for the side rails but that has not happened.
An interview was conducted on 01/25/24 at 11:30 AM with Staff B, LPN, who stated she has worked at the
facility for 1 year. When asked about bedrails, she stated this floor does not use siderails (bedrails). She
said all of the beds on this floor that have siderails (bedrails) are all down (in the down position) unless they
are on seizure precautions. When asked if they monitor or assess for the bedrails, she said yes, but most of
those residents are ambulatory and we just check on the resident every 2 hours. She said they check every
morning during rounds to see if the bed is okay. When asked about documentation regarding bedrails, she
said if the bed is okay and you have a reason to put in a nursing note for a resident, you can document it in
the note. If the siderail (bedrail) is not okay, she would put it on the sheet for maintenance to check or she
may call maintenance also to alert them of the issue.
An interview was conducted on 01/25/24 at 11:50 AM with Staff A, LPN Unit Manager (LPN/UM), who
stated he has worked at the facility since August or September 2023. When asked about bedrails, he said,
'what do you mean'. When asked if beds have bedrails, he said, 'no'. He said very few beds have a siderail
(bedrail). The only beds with a siderail are the beds that have the control incorporated into the siderail.
When asked if the residents are assessed for bedrails he said, 'yes, upon admission and an assessment for
siderails are completed in the residents' chart. When asked if the bedrails are monitored, he stated, 'yes, we
nurses walk around and look at the beds'. When asked where the documentation of the monitoring of
bedrails is, he said, 'no, we do not document that'. When asked if maintenance inspects the beds,
mattresses, or bedrails, he said, 'he has never seen that'.

staffing' was posted at the front desk. Throughout the first day of the survey on 01/22/24 from 7:00 AM until
approximately 6:30 PM, the surveyors did not observe that the 'daily nurse staffing' in the facility was
posted.
Throughout the day on 01/23/24 and 01/24/24, the surveyors continued to not see the daily posted nurse
staffing at the front desk or anywhere else in the facility.
An interview was conducted on 01/24/24 at 2:37 PM with the facility's Nurse Staffing Development
Coordinator. She stated the daily staffing numbers are to be posted daily at the front desk. The surveyor
and the Nurse Staffing Development Coordinator walked to the front desk together and saw that the sign
containing the daily staffing numbers was located behind the front desk, not visible to residents and visitors,
and the paper inside the sign was dated 01/23/24. At that time, the receptionist stated the staffing had not
been updated for the day and that she had told the Staffing Coordinator that morning.
An interview was conducted on 01/24/24 at 2:40 PM with the facility's Staffing Coordinator. She confirmed
she was responsible for updating the posted staffing daily and that she had not been able to change the
posting for that day. The surveyor asked to see the posted staffing sheets from the two weeks prior to
ensure she had been up to date on this task. After approximately 10 minutes, the Staffing Coordinator was
only able to produce 3 posted staffing sheets, dated 01/22/24, 01/03/24, and 12/26/23. She was unable to
provide a reason for why the other sheets were not found.
An interview was conducted on 01/24/24 at 2:56 PM with the facility's Director of Nursing. The surveyor
explained the above concern and she stated she understood.

Certified Dietary Manager (CDM) said this was the cooked collard green vegetables on the pureed diet for
today's lunch meal.
In an observation conducted on 01/22/24 at 7:35 AM, Staff L, Dietary Cook, placed the already-cooked
collard greens in the warmer. Staff L stated that she cooked the vegetables for the pureed diet a little
earlier, and when she is done with the breakfast tray line, she will puree the cooked collard greens. When
asked about the breakfast tray line, she said that it starts at about 7:20 AM and it takes about one hour to
finish the breakfast tray line.
In an interview conducted on 01/25/24 at 12:20 PM with the Certified Dietary Manager, she stated that she
was unaware that cooking raw vegetables and pureeing them too early in the day causes them to lose
nutritional value. The surveyor expressed concern that cooking / pureeing cooked vegetables causes them
to lose nutrients, especially when prepared too far in advance.

Ensure each resident receives and the facility provides drinks consistent with resident needs and
preferences and sufficient to maintain resident hydration.
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
observations, interviews, and record review, the facility failed to provide the appropriate orders for 3 of 32
sampled residents, for fluids, as prescribed by the attending physicians, Resident #74 and Resident #40;
and failed to provide adequate hydration for Resident #53.
The findings included:
1. Record review showed that Resident #74 was admitted to the facility on [DATE] with diagnoses of
Diabetes, Anemia, and Hyperlipidemia.
During the dining observation on 01/23/24 at 8:28 AM, Resident #74 was noted in his room with the
breakfast tray. The breakfast meal ticket showed a regular, mechanical, soft diet with thick nectar liquids.
Closer observation of the meal tray revealed a 12-ounce Styrofoam cup of water that was not thickened and
placed near the breakfast tray. In this observation, Resident #74 was asked by the surveyor if he was aware
that he was on a specific fluid consistency restriction, and Resident #74 could not answer.
2. Resident #40 was admitted to the facility on [DATE] with diagnoses of Dementia and Behavioral
Disturbances. Resident #40 started in hospice on 07/05/23. The Quarterly Minimum Data Set assessment
dated [DATE] revealed that Resident #40 has a Brief Interview of Mental Status (BIMS) score of 99,
indciating the score could be obtained.
In an observation conducted on 01/22/24 at 12:43 PM, Resident #40 was in her room with her lunch tray.
Staff P, a Hospice Registered Nurse (RN), was observed in the room assisting Resident #40 with her lunch
meal. Closer observation showed a regular pureed diet meal ticket with thick nectar liquids. The lunch tray
was noted with pureed roast turkey, pureed collard green, and 8 ounces of iced tea that was not thickened.
During this observation, the surveyor asked Staff P if she knew Resident #40 was on nectar liquids. Staff P
stated that she was unsure and proceeded to look at the meal ticket near the tray.
An interview was conducted on 01/25/24 at 11:42 AM with the Certified Dietary Manager (CDM) who stated
that any residents with specific fluid orders would be shown on the meal ticket. It is placed in the meal
tracker system to reflect the correct diet and runny consistency. They have a machine in the kitchen that
thickens the liquids that are placed on the meal trays. If the residents want other fluids that do not come
from the kitchen, like coffee or juice, the nursing staff would thicken the liquids on the units. The staff has
thickened liquid packets in the nourishment room and on the beverage carts on the floors. The CDM stated
that the staff used to have a list of residents who were on thickened liquids, so staff would identify who was
on restricted liquids.
In an interview conducted on 01/25/24 at 2:30 PM with Staff, I, Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA), stated
that every staff member on the floor can provide water to residents. She stated she offered water in
Styrofoam cups to her residents this morning. When asked how staff knows if any residents are on specific
types of liquids, she said they need to look at the meal tickets. If they provide water or other liquids during
meals, then staff needs to check the diet order before giving the liquids to residents and know if they need
to be thickened or not.

Ensure therapeutic diets are prescribed by the attending physician and may be delegated to a registered or
licensed dietitian, to the extent allowed by State law.
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
observations, interviews, and record review, the facility failed to follow the therapeutic diets as per
physician's orders for 2 of the 32 sampled residents (Resident #86 and Resident #55).
The findings included:
A review of the facility's policy, titled, Meal Supervision and Assistant, revised on 11/29/22, showed, in part,
that staff needs to check the tray before serving it to the resident to be sure that it is the correct diet ordered
and that the food consistency is appropriate to the resident's ability to chew and swallow.
1 . Resident #86 was admitted to the facility on [DATE] with diagnoses of Parkinson's, Dementia, and
Depression. The Quarterly Minimum Data Set (MDS) assessment dated [DATE] revealed a Brief Interview
of Mental Status (BIMS) score of 04, indicating severe cognitive impairment. Review of the physician's
orders, dated 12/04/23, revealed an order for regular texture, thin liquids, and fortified foods with meals.
In an observation conducted on 01/24/24 at 8:40 AM, Resident #86 was noted eating her breakfast from
the tray in her room. Closer observation showed a meal ticket with the following: regular diet, baked omelet,
sausage patty, toast, and hot cereal. The meal ticket did not mention any fortified foods to be provided. The
breakfast plate consisted of one serving of omelet, sausage patty, and 6 ounces of hot cereal.
In an observation conducted on 01/24/24 at 12:27 PM, Resident #86 was in the room eating her lunch
meal. Closer observation showed 8 ounces of shepherd's pie, 4 ounces of corn, and one serving of dinner
roll. No fortified food item was noted on the lunch tray or on the meal ticket.
2. Resident #55 was admitted on [DATE] with diagnoses of Anemia, Dysphagia, and Depression. Review of
the physician's orders revealed an order dated 08/16/23 for regular texture, thin liquids, and large portions
of protein at meals. The Quarterly Minimum Data Set (MDS) dated [DATE] revealed Resident #55 has a
Brief Interview of Mental Status (BIMS) score of 03, indicating severe cognitive impairment.
In an observation conducted on 01/24/24 at 8:44 AM, Resident #55 ate his breakfast meal independently.
The meal ticket revealed the following: low concentrated sweet, large protein, one serving of omelet
(average serving), and 1 ounce of sausage patty (average serving). Observation of the breakfast plate did
not show that Resident #55 received a large portion of protein.
In an observation conducted on 01/24/24 at 12:24 PM, Resident #55 was eating his lunch meal. Closer
observation showed that he received 8 ounces of shepherd's pie (normal serving), 4 ounces of corn and a
dinner roll. Closer observation did not show that any large portion of protein was provided.
In an interview conducted on 01/25/24 at noon, the Certified Dietary Manager (CDM) stated that they have
a designated staff member who checks the tray line trays and meal tickets to ensure accuracy. Sometimes,
food items are missed during the tray line, so nursing staff should also check the meal tickets for accuracy

Based on interviews and record reviews, the facility failed to administer the facility in a manner that enables
the effective and efficient use of its resources.
Residents Affected - Few
The findings included:
A review of the Administrator's job description revealed the following:
1. Lead and direct the facility's overall operations in accordance with customer needs, government
regulations, and Company policies, focusing on maintaining excellent care for the residents while achieving
the facility's business objectives.
2. Manage facility budgets and business practices to include labor costs, payables, and receivables.
3. Consult with department managers concerning the operation of their departments to assist in eliminating/
correcting problem areas and/or improving services.
4. Verify that the building and grounds are maintained appropriately, that equipment and work areas are
clean, safe, and orderly, and that any hazardous conditions are addressed.
5. Monitor each department's activities, communicate policies, evaluate performance, provide feedback,
and assist, observe, coach, and discipline as needed.
6. Oversee regular rounds to monitor the delivery of nursing care, operations of support departments,
cleanliness and appearance of the facility, morale of the staff, and ensure resident needs are being
addressed.
In an interview with the Maintenance Director on 01/25/24 at 8:06 AM, he stated that he had worked in the
facility for the last six weeks. He oversees the facility and ensures everything is in operation and working
order. The staff will complete a working order request on any issue that needs fixing. The order forms are
placed in a bin outside the central supply office, which he checks daily. He only has one assistant to help
him complete all the work that is needed around the facility, and that, at times, is not enough. When asked
by the Surveyor if he ever attended a Quality Assurance Performance Improvement (QAPI) meeting, he
said no. The Maintenance Director reported that some significant issues around the facility needed to be
addressed, and he brought it up to the Administrator. He was told by the Administrator that he would
contact Corporate for budget approval and that he would let him know. The Administrator told him that
Corporate did not approve some of the issues, that his hands were tied, and that he could not do anything.
According to the Maintenance Director, this is why he is leaving the facility; tomorrow is his last day. The
Administrator was able to give him an allowance to buy the supplies needed for some of the repairs but was
told that Corporate did not approve other maintenance. When asked if any audit sheets or forms are
completed by the Administrator overseeing his job or his progress in the facility, he said no. The
Maintenance Director further said he contacted some previous vendors for needed work around the facility,
for example pest control. The vendors told him they would come into the facility once older invoices for work
were paid.
In an interview conducted on 01/25/24 at 5:15 PM, the Administrator stated that as the

Administrator, he is responsible for taking all feedback from his staff and residents. He uses QAPI to keep
track of all the issues and areas of resident care around the facility. He determined how staff did their job by
conducting physical rounds, looking at patient outcomes, and interviewing department heads. Regarding
oversight of the Maintenance Department, he stated that they have weekly maintenance checklists that he
and the Maintenance Director fill out. He also has a budget credit card that is used for emergency
purchases for any emergency items that need to be bought. The Administrator reported that the
Maintenance Director had never approached him in the past regarding supplies that he needed and denied
telling him that they didn't have a budget for supplies.

Establish a governing body that is legally responsible for establishing and implementing policies for
managing and operating the facility and appoints a properly licensed administrator responsible for
managing the facility.
Based on interviews and record review, the facility failed to communicate effectively between the
Administrator and the Governing Body regarding the overall management and operation of the facility.
The findings included:
A review of the Quality Assurance and Performance Improvement Plan (QAPI) dated 2023 revealed that the
QAPI Plan and program were reviewed and approved by The Committee of the Governing Body. The
Governing Body of our facility has ultimate responsibility and leadership over our QAPI program, working
with input from staff, residents, and resident representatives. The Governing Body designates a QAPI
Steering Committee (Administrator, Director of Nursing, and Medical Director). The Governing Body
ensures that the QAPI program has sufficient resources, facility-wide QAPI training occurs that policies are
in place to sustain the program despite personnel changes, supports a culture of resident-centered rights
and choices, holds staff accountable for quality in an environment free of retaliation; ensures staff is
educated and proficient in their duties.
A review of the 2024 QAPI Plan provided to the Surveyor on 01/25/24 at 4:50 PM revealed that the
Governing Body is responsible and accountable for overseeing the QAPI program. The Governing Body is
responsible and accountable for ensuring that an ongoing QAPI program is defined, implemented,
maintained, and addresses identified priorities. The QAPI program is sustained during transitions in
leadership and staffing. It further revealed corrective actions address system gaps and evaluate the QAPI
programs' effectiveness.
In an interview conducted on 01/25/24 at 8:06 AM, the facility's maintenance director stated that the facility
had major issues that needed to be addressed right away and that he brought them up with the
administration. The Administrator was able to give him the allowance to buy some of the materials that were
needed for some of the repairs, but he was told that Corporate did not approve other repairs. Some of the
issues he reported were the air conditioning on the roof that is not working, the downstairs door frame
being busted and needs to be fixed immediately, and the sprinkler system being red-tagged. He was also
told by the vendors that the corporation would not pay them for the work done and would only come into the
facility once older invoices for work that was done were paid. The maintenance director reported that the
residents' beds in the facility were of all sizes and types and that they needed to follow the directions for
using each bed type. When asked if there is a system to check the bed rails and ensure that the frame and
mattress fit the bed, he said no.
In an interview conducted on 01/25/24 at 1:40 PM with the facility's Medical Director, he stated that he is
part of the Governing Body with the Administrator and the Director of Nursing. The goal of the Governing
Body is to communicate effectively and to work as a team to treat patients and take ownership of their
roles. When asked who is responsible for reporting to him on various issues and concerns in the facility, he
said the Director of Nursing (DON). According to the Medical Director, the DON will contact him and
discuss any issues that may need addressing. Together, they will decide if performance improvement
projects (PIP) must be started. The Surveyor asked if he knew the facility had pest control issues, and he
said no. The Medical Director was not told that nurses needed to follow the Physician's orders regarding
tube-feeding residents. He was aware of residents who had significant weight losses but needed to know if
they were addressed in a timely manner by the facility's Registered Dietitian. According to the Medical
Director, he knew that the facility had issues with

the contracted hospice companies and that care plans were not completed on time. He had to reach out to
the hospice companies himself to discuss the problem. The Medical Director stated that the DON should
keep a log of all the communications between them and that he did not have a written log. In the past,
residents' care was affected because of a lack of supplies. He has received calls from the hospital
regarding the overall care of his residents. He was told by hospital staff that his residents were not being
cared for medically while in the facility.
In an interview conducted on 01/25/24 at 2:49 PM with the Regional Director of Operation/Owner, she
stated that she is part of the Governing Body and is responsible for overseeing the facility and providing
any support it may need. When asked who else is part of the Governing Body, she said the following:
Regional Minimum Data Set Coordinator, Regional Nurse Consultant, Regional Plant Operations, Regional
Risk Management, Chief Executive Officer, and [NAME] President of Operation. They took over as a new
management/ownership around June 2023. She oversees the budget and ensures the staffing is
appropriate. The Regional Director of Operations reported that she communicates daily with the facility's
Administrator. The Administrator is responsible for reporting any negative outcome regarding the point of
care to her. When asked if the Administrator or Medical Director had contacted her in the past regarding not
having supplies, she said no and that she would have taken care of the issues right away.
A review of the facility's assessment revealed that the facility's Chief Operating Officer oversees shared
services managers. At the same time, the Administrator manages the management team, which is
responsible for the facility's day-to-day operations. The Medical Director oversees medical practice and the
clinical policies and programs of the facility.
In a phone interview with the pest control company on 02/01/24 at 12:40 PM, the representative stated that
the facility had not been paying their invoices since October 2023 and was 90 days behind. It was further
reported that no payments were made since October of 2023 and that they finally paid all their due
balances on January 31, 2024.

Review of the DNR form in the resident's Electronic Medical Record (EMR) was unsigned by the physician.
Review of the Do Not Resuscitate (DNR) form had no physician signature on the DNR form in the yellow
DNR binder located in the medication room. The SSD stated there has been a back log of uploading
documents into the EMR from the old system prior to switching to the current EMR system they are using.
Residents Affected - Some
An interview was conducted on 01/24/24 at 9:16 AM with the Social Service Director (SSD) who stated she
has worked at the facility for 4 years. She stated upon the admission of a resident, the code status is
addressed, and it is verified with the resident/resident representative. The SSD stated the quarterly care
plans will readdress unresolved advance directive concerns/issues. For a resident who want a code status
of DNR (Do Not Resuscitate) the resident or the family will sign the yellow DNR form, she then gets the
physician to sign it and the nurse will get the order for the DNR and will put that into the resident's EMR
(Electronic Medical Record). In the state of Florida to legally be a DNR they have to have the physician
order and the yellow form with Florida insignia on it signed by the responsible party and the physician.
There was a physician who signed the DNR form dated 07/04/23 (before the resident was admitted to the
memory care unit at the facility). On 06/14/23 there was a Certification of Incapacity to Make Informed
Healthcare Decision signed by physician (prior to admission to the memory care unit at the facility) and
based on this form the facility reached out to the daughter of Resident #57 about the code status for the
resident. When the SSD spoke to the daughter, the daughter was adamant the resident was a DNR status.

7) A record review revealed that Resident #34 was readmitted to the facility on [DATE] with diagnoses of
Gastrostomy, Psychotic disturbances, and Dementia. The Physician's orders showed the following:
clarification order for Resident #34 to begin one meal a day- lunch: puree solids and thin liquids, dated
01/23/24. An order for tube feeding is to be administered with Jevity 1.2 (tube feeding formulary)
continuously at 60 milliliters (ml) an hour for 24 hours/day, dated 12/31/23. Start tube feeding at 2:00 PM for
20 hours dated 01/05/24. Another order was noted for Nothing by Mouth, with the exception of the Speech
Therapist to introduce food/fluids consistency for enteral feeding, which was started on 12/31/23 and
discontinued on 01/23/24.
An observation conducted on 01/22/24 at 12:28 PM showed Resident #34 with a lunch tray and the tube
feeding on hold. Closer observation showed Staff X, Speech Language Pathologist, at the bedside
assisting Resident #34 with her lunch tray. The lunch meal was noted with pureed roast turkey, pureed
collard greens, pureed mashed potatoes, and a slice of soft cake. The meal ticket revealed the following:
regular pureed with Nothing by Mouth (NPO), do not send tray, on the top and bottom of the meal ticket. In
this observation, Staff X stated that Resident #34 was not eating by mouth until last Thursday and that she
upgraded Resident #34 ' s diet. The diet was upgraded to a one-a-day, pureed diet with trials of mechanical
soft. According to Staff X, they are trying to wean Resident #34 from tube feeding, so they started with one
meal a day. When asked by the Surveyor if she was the only one who could assist Resident #34 with her
lunch meals, she said no and that any staff members could help her during mealtimes. The Surveyor asked
Staff X if she knew why it said NPO/do not send a tray on the meal ticket; she did not know.
In an observation conducted on 01/23/24 at 12:30 PM, Resident #34 was noted in the main dining room on
the 2nd floor. A closer observation showed Staff X sitting near Resident #34 and assisting her with the
lunch meal. The Surveyor asked Staff X if she found out why the meal ticket still says NPO/do not send a
tray. She said, You need to ask the main kitchen. They are the ones who print out the meal tickets.
A review of the Medication Administration Record for the month of January 2023 showed that the orders to
start the tube feeding at 2:00 PM for 20 hours were documented as done daily, and the tube feeding Jevity
1.2 to run for 24 hours at 60 ml an hour was documented as done on a daily basis.
In an interview conducted on 01/24/24 at 1:42 PM with Staff L, Licensed Practical Nurse, she stated that
when she was asked earlier if any staff member could assist Resident #34 during the lunch meal, and she
said yes, it was incorrect. When asked by Surveyor as to why she marked both tube feeding orders as
above as completed, she stated that it was an oversight on her part and that both tube feeding orders
contradict each other.

**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
observations, interviews, and record review, the facility failed to have an integrative care plan and effective
communication between the facility and the hospice provider for 1 of 1 resident reviewed for hospice
(Resident #40).
The findings included:
A review of the facility policy titled, Coordination of Hospice Services, revised on 6/2023, revealed the
following: when a resident chooses to receive hospice care and services, the facility will coordinate and
provide care in cooperation with hospice staff to promote the resident's highest practicable physical,
mental, and psychosocial well-being. The facility and hospice provider will coordinate a care plan and
implement interventions per the resident's needs, goals, and recognized standards of practice in
consultation with the resident's attending physician/ practitioner and resident's representative to the extent
possible. The plan of care will identify the care and services that each entity will provide to meet the needs
of the resident and their expressed desire for hospice care.
A record review revealed that Resident #40 was admitted to the facility on [DATE] with diagnoses of
Dementia and Behavioral Disturbances. The most recent Quarterly Minimum Data Set assessment dated
[DATE] shows that Resident #40 has a Brief Interview of Mental Status (BIMS) score of 99, which means
that the score could not be obtained.
A review of the Physician's order showed an order: referral for hospice consult, which was dated 07/05/23.
Further review did not show an order to be admitted to hospice.
Long-term care facility change in billing revealed that Resident #40 was admitted to Vitas Hospice effective
07/06/23.
A progress note dated 07/05/23 showed Resident #40's spouse had concerns regarding possible hospice
consultation. He related that he would like to have them notified.
A review of the facility care plan did not show that a care plan was initiated and updated regarding hospice
for Resident #40.
A review of the hospice binder on the 2nd-floor Unit did not show documentation regarding care
coordination between the facility and the hospice agency. Further review should have demonstrated that
delegation of care was communicated between the facility and hospice.
An interview conducted on 01/25/24 at 9:44 AM with Staff Q, Minimum Data Set (MDS) Coordinator, stated
that when a resident gets admitted to hospice, they should always be admitted to hospice in the medical
chart. She will review the Physician's orders and then knows that a care plan for hospice needs to be
created. Social Services will also inform her if a resident was admitted to hospice. When asked why
Resident #40 did not have a care plan for hospice, she did not have an answer.
In an interview conducted on 01/25/24 at 9:15 AM, Staff J, Unit Manager, said that when residents are
admitted to hospice, they will call the doctor to get an order to accept the resident to hospice, which is then
placed as an order in the electronic system. The Social Worker communicates with the

Set up an ongoing quality assessment and assurance group to review quality deficiencies and develop
corrective plans of action.
Based on interviews and record review, the facility failed to maintain an effective Quality Assurance
Performance Improvement (QAPI) program.
Residents Affected - Some
The findings included:
A review of the QAPI plan dated 2023 revealed the following: The plan provides a framework for a
systematic, organization-wide improvement system specific to identifying aspects of quality needs and gaps
in systems of care and management practices in our organization. Ensuring that all quality management
initiatives regarding the delivery and management of care are clinically sound, promote consumer safety,
and are based on current best practices. Which indicators of quality were evaluated during the quarter, and
what were the results of the actions? What actions are planned and have been taken to improve quality and
the results of those? Lessons learned from this process. Plan for sustained compliance.
A record review of the previous Recertification survey dated 10/08/2021 revealed that the facility was found
to be out of compliance under Physical Environment and cited at F925 and F921. The facility was found to
be out of compliance under Comprehensive Resident Centered Care Plans and cited at F656. The facility
was found to be out of compliance under Resident Rights and cited at F557.
A record review of the facility's complaint history revealed a complaint dated 07/23/23 regarding pest
control, which was substantiated and cited under Physical Environment.
In an interview conducted on 01/25/24 at 1:40 PM with the facility's Medical Director, he stated that he was
aware the facility had issues with not promptly completing care plans. He further said that he knew that the
hospice contracted companies were not completing care plans regarding hospice care and that they were
supposed to start a PIP (Performance Improvement Plan) on the issue.
In an interview conducted during the QAPI task review on 01/25/24 at 5:36 PM with the facility's
Administrator, he stated that they have been tracking and trending different care areas as needed. He has
an open-door policy that enables communication between him and staff members as required. The
Administrator reported that QAPI areas are started and continued for 90 days or until they feel the issue
has been resolved. Any Performance Improvement Plan (PIP) goal is met at around 90%. They meet once
a month with all department heads and the Medical Director. The Administrator stated that they last had a
QAPI on pest control around September of 2023. They were cited under Physical Environment, and a QAPI
was started, which tracked pest control and ended around September 2023. When asked to see
documentation on continuous tracking and trending regarding the Physical Environment since September
2023, the Administrator did not have any. When asked to see if a QAPI was completed regarding
incomplete care plans or timing of care plans in the last year, the Administrator could not provide any
documents.
In an interview conducted on 01/25/24 at 6:04 PM, the Infection Preventionist stated that they started a
QAPI on staff not following the Physician's orders, which began on 11/30/23 and is ongoing at this time.
When asked if a PIP was started on hospice care plans not completed on time, she said no.

Record) under immunization tab that the resident declined the vaccine. The DON stated the facility went
back to using a consent/declination form for vaccines that had a separate section for influenza and
pneumococcal, for the resident or resident representative to accept or decline each individual vaccine being
offered.
