This survey cited 6 deficiencies. The full statement and the facility’s plan of correction follow, verbatim from the federal record.

F 0550 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Few Honor the resident's right to a dignified existence, self-determination, communication, and to exercise his or her rights. **NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on observation, interview, and record review, the facility failed to ensure a dignified existence related to dining for one (Resident #24) out of seven sampled residents. Measures were not taken to ensure assistance was provided during dining to support the resident's dignity, and labels such as a feed was used by facility staff when referring to residents that needed help with eating. Findings included: Observation of the lunch meal was conducted on 09/13/21. At 12:30 p.m. Resident #24 was observed eating in her room, in her bed, unassisted, and unsupervised. No staff were present in the room. The resident's bed was furthest from the door and the privacy curtain was pulled. The resident's tray revealed foods of puree texture and she was observed eating with her hands. Large amounts of food were dropping on her chest and shirt. The resident was not able to engage coherently. A review of the resident's medical record was conducted. The admission Record Report revealed she was admitted to the facility on [DATE]. Diagnoses included dementia. The Minimum Data Set (MDS) dated [DATE], revealed the resident's cognitive skills for daily decision making were severely impaired, the resident required supervision of one-person physical assist for eating and required extensive physical assist of one person for all other Activities of Daily Living (ADL). The care plan revealed the resident had ADL deficits related to physical limitations, cognitive decline, and often ate with her hands. Interventions in the care plan included: assist with eating as needed (initiated 08/31/18); assist with dining, verbal cues, and hands on assistance as needed (initiated 01/18/21); assist with eating at mealtimes (initiated 11/25/20). Observation of the lunch meal was conducted on 09/14/21. Resident #24's lunch tray was delivered to her in her room in bed at 12:22 p.m. Again, the resident was observed in bed with her lunch tray. No staff were present in the room providing assistance or supervision and the privacy curtain was pulled which meant the resident was not visible from the doorway. The resident smiled when addressed but was not able to engage coherently. She was observed feeding herself using a large spoon and her fingers. She was not looking at items on tray and was dropping large amounts of food on her bare chest, shirt, and bed linens. At times she was observed using a spoon to scoop at areas of the tray that were empty. At 12:26 p.m., the resident was observed putting the large spoon in her mouth with an unopened packet of pepper stuck to it. A few minutes later she was observed putting the large spoon in her mouth with an unopened packet of salt stuck to it and began chewing/eating the salt packet. At that moment Staff G, Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA), who was in the room assisting the resident's roommate was alerted. She confirmed the observation and that it was of concern. She observed how the resident was feeding herself and observed the large amounts of food on the resident's chest and (continued on next page) Any deficiency statement ending with an asterisk (*) denotes a deficiency which the institution may be excused from correcting providing it is determined that other safeguards provide sufficient protection to the patients.

F 0550 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm clothing and said, I think she needs help. Staff G removed the pepper packet that was still stuck to the spoon and removed some of the large clumps of food that had fallen on the resident's chest and shirt. At 12:39 p.m. on 09/14/21, the resident was observed again alone in her room, no staff were present, and she was licking the outside of an empty bowl. Food debris remained on her shirt, and her hands and fingers were coated with food. Residents Affected - Few Observation of the lunch meal was conducted on 09/15/21. At 12:28 p.m., a CNA delivered Resident #24's tray and exited the room at 12:31 p.m. At 12:35 p.m. on 09/15/21, Staff F, Registered Nurse (RN) was heard in the resident's hallway asking where a certain CNA was because she had feeds. At 12:38 p.m. on 09/15/21, Resident #24 was observed in bed with her lunch tray engaged in feeding herself. There were no staff present in the room providing assistance or supervision. The resident smiled when addressed but did not otherwise engage. She was using her fingers to feed herself and both hands were coated with pureed food. Food had been dropped on her chest and on the gown she was wearing. There was a scoop plate containing pureed food items on the bed near her lap. During the observation she picked up a bowl that contained what appeared to be pudding, brought it to her mouth, and began licking the outside of the bowl. Immediately following this observation, Staff F was asked to enter the room for interview. When Staff F entered the room, the resident was still licking the outside of the pudding bowl. Staff F observed the resident's actions, the food all over her hands and chest and said that clearly the resident needed to be fed. Staff F said nobody had made her aware this was going on and if she had known she would have assigned someone to feed her. Staff F observed the placement of the scoop dish on the bed and said it wasn't of any help since the resident could not use it properly. She said Resident #23 had not been a feed and said she needed to be a feed. She then began feeding the resident from a standing position over her. When questioned about the use of the term feed to refer to a resident and about standing over a resident to provide dining assistance, Staff F said she had not been aware she was using that terminology and said if she had been planning to feed the resident, she would have arranged to be seated next to her. (Photographic evidence of setup obtained). On 9/15/21 at 2:49 p.m., Staff F followed up to report that she had entered dining assist required for Resident #24 into the [NAME] (CNA task list) and that in-servicing with staff had begun. An interview was conducted on 09/16/21 at 9:02 a.m., with Staff H, Registered Dietician (RD). She confirmed she had visited Resident #24 on 09/14/21 after Staff G reported to her that the resident was dropping food during meals. Staff H confirmed she had initiated trial of a scoop plate. Staff H said she followed up with Staff G the evening of 09/14/21. Staff G reported the scoop plate was helpful and so Staff H did not follow up further. Staff H said that she told Staff G that the resident would need at least supervision with the scoop plate to make sure she was using it correctly. Photographic evidence of the scoop plate observed on the resident's bed during the lunch meal on 09/15/21 was revealed to Staff H. She confirmed that was not the correct setup and confirmed that the resident needed someone to assist her with eating. An interview was conducted with the facility Director of Nursing (DON) on 09/16/21 at 9:52 a.m. She said the expectation for identifying residents who needed assistance with dining for dignity or safety was that facility staff monitor the patients, monitor their behaviors, some of my patients that becomes a battle with their dementia, limiting their independence is not exactly dignified either. Observations made of Resident #24 throughout the survey were shared with the DON. Regarding food on clothing and covering hands the DON said the expectation was when it comes to that point CNAs who pick up the trays would identify change in condition. She said the expectation was that the CNA would identify the change and report it to a nurse, a manager, the dietician, or a therapist.

F 0656 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Few Develop and implement a complete care plan that meets all the resident's needs, with timetables and actions that can be measured. **NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on observations, interview, and record review, the facility failed to ensure that a resident centered care plan was developed and implemented related to Oxygen use for one (Resident #53) of five sampled residents and failed to implement fall interventions for one (Resident #68) of forty-two residents in the sample group. Findings included: 1. On 09/13/2021 at 12:14 p.m., Resident #53 was observed from the hall to be receiving Oxygen with bilateral nasal cannula. (NC) On 9/14/2021 a subsequent observation was conducted of Resident #53, laying in bed in her room. During the observation the oxygen concentrator was dialed at two (2) Liters. The resident confirmed that she wears oxygen continuously. A medical record review for Resident #53 indicated she was originally admitted on [DATE] and re-admitted on [DATE] with multiple diagnoses that included chronic respiratory failure with hypoxia, and Spinal Stenosis, Thoracic. A review of the physician orders revealed Resident #53 did not have an active physician's order for Continuous Oxygen by Nasal Cannula (NC) 2 Liters (L). Record review of the quarterly Minimum Data Set (MDS) dated [DATE], identified in Section C, that resident #53's Brief Interview for Mental Status (BIMS) score was 11, (indicating moderate cognitive impairment). Section O Special Treatments, Procedures and Programs lists under 0100, O signed 08/10/2021 Oxygen Use while resident is in the facility. Record review of Resident 53's care-plan with a target date of 11/13/2021 did not include a focus area, goals, or interventions for Oxygen use. On 09/15/21 at 8:50 a.m., an interview was conducted with Resident #53's nurse, Staff B, Registered Nurse (RN), on the [NAME] Wing Hall. Staff B indicated the resident was supposed to be receiving Oxygen. She reviewed the active physician's orders and indicated that she could not find a current or discontinued order in the Electronic Medical Record (EMAR) for Oxygen use for Resident #53. An interview was conducted with the Director of Nursing (DON) on 09/15/21 at 04:57 p.m., The DON verified that Resident #53, was not care planned and did not have an active order to receive supplemental oxygen An interview was conducted with Staff C, RN Assessment Coordinator on 09/16/21 at 11:25 a.m. Staff C stated, When a new order comes in everyone is responsible to add or take things out of a resident's care plan, and it can be done anytime. They are expected to put it on the care plan if they are getting oxygen or something new ordered by a physician. She revealed that she was not the only one that made changes to a resident's care plan, especially if new orders were given off hours when she was not working 2. Resident #68 was observed in her bed in her room on 09/13/21 at 10:30 a.m. Her mattress was a standard mattress without a scoop and was not in a lowered position.

F 0656 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Few resident's left eye and at the left side of her neck. The resident said the bruises were from a fall in her room. She could not provide specific on when the fall occurred or the exact circumstances but said her nursing aide told her she had fallen getting out of bed and hit against the foot of the bed. A review of Resident #68's medical record was conducted. The admission Record revealed diagnoses including senile degeneration of the brain and Parkinson's disease. The care plan revealed a focus area for fall risk and included interventions of bed in low position (initiated 12/12/20) and scoop/perimeter mattress (initiated 01/08/21). Observation of the Resident #68's bed was made with Staff F, Registered Nurse (RN) on 09/15/21 at 1:05 p.m. Staff F confirmed there was no scop mattress present. An interview was conducted with the Director of Nursing (DON) on 09/16/21 at 10:37 a.m. She confirmed the resident fell on [DATE] while attempting to get out of bed unassisted. Observation of Resident #68's room was made with the DON during the interview. The DON confirmed that there was no scoop mattress and that the bed was not in a low position. Regarding the interventions for fall prevention identified in the care plan versus what was observed the DON said, unfortunately the interventions that were supposed to be in place for fall prevention were not in place. She said she did not know why the scoop mattress was removed from the bed and said she had asked the staff and they did not know. Regarding the bed not in a low position she said, I think she's (Resident #68) putting her bed up and down. A review of the facility policy titled Interdisciplinary Care Planning, with revision date of 03/2018 reads as follows: Comprehensive Care Plan Requirements The facility must develop and implement a comprehensive person centered careplan for each Patient that includes measurable objectives and timeframes to meet a patient's medical, nursing, mental, and psychosocial needs that are identified in the comprehensive assessment. The services provided or arranged by the facility, as outlined in the comprehensive care plan, must- meet professional standards of quality, be provided by qualified persons in accordance with each patient's written plan of care, be culturally competent.
