accordance with accepted professional standards.
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
record review and interviews, the facility failed to maintain accurate and updated medical records for 1 out
of 8 residents sampled. (Resident #2)
The findings include:
On [DATE], it was decided by the family that Resident #2's code status would be changed to Do Not
Resuscitate (DNR). The family started the process and the facility assisted in getting the order signed by
the doctor that same day. The Social Service Assistant brought back the completed to the facility at
approximately 4:45 PM.
On [DATE], Resident #2 was observed in bed without respirations and cold to the touch. Staff F, a Licensed
Practical Nurse (LPN), and Staff G, a Registered Nurse (RN), confirmed the advance directive on the
electronic medical record, and it stated Resident #2 was a Full Code. Per facilities policy, they had to double
check the Advance Directives book, located at the nurse's station, but it was not there. Staff F and G
started cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) until paramedics pronounced the resident expired.
On [DATE] at approximately 9:20 AM, during an interview with Regional Director of Clinical Services, she
was asked what the expectation was regarding the location of the Advance Directives book. She stated the
book should never leave the nurses' station. When asked who was responsible for updating the orders
when the completed DNR was received, she stated nurses are the only ones that can change orders.
On [DATE] at approximately 12:36 PM, an interview was held with Staff E, a LPN, who was the nurse the
day Resident #2 had the change in advance directives. When asked how she found out about the DNR
order, she stated the social services assistant came back and announced she had received it, and she had
witnessed her adding it to the book. When asked if that was the appropriate process, she stated that, before
it gets added to the book, a nurse must update the orders. When asked if she had received a request to
update the orders, she said she had not. She also stated she would never change those orders until she
could verify the form was correct and had all signatures.
On [DATE] at approximately 1:09 PM, an interview was held with Staff H, the Social Services Assistant
(SSA). When asked if she had handed one of the nurses the completed DNR form, she stated she had
announced to Staff E that she had the form while walking by her. She then put the form in the advance
directives book. When asked if Staff E saw the form and was able to read it, the SSA stated she did not
think so. She was asked if she had requested that Staff E update the electronic record, she

Level of Harm - Minimal harm
or potential for actual harm
Based on observation and interview, the facility failed to maintain an adequately equipped call light system
for the 100 hall of the building.
Residents Affected - Some
The findings include:
During the initial tour of the facility, it was noted that all the residents in the 100 hall were observed with
hand held bells located at the bedside of each resident. When asked about this, the Administrator stated
that the call light system was not working and these bells were being used in lieu of the call lights for now.
He stated the call light system had been broken in the 100 hall for a very long time.
However, it was noted upon looking in the rooms that there was no system of calling staff located in each of
the bedrooms' private bathrooms.
Upon further discussion, the Administrator stated the parts for the call light system had recently arrived and
the repairs to the system should occur soon.
