What the inspector wrote

This survey cited 17 deficiencies. The full statement and the facility’s plan of correction follow, verbatim from the federal record.

F 0657 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Few Develop the complete care plan within 7 days of the comprehensive assessment; and prepared, reviewed, and revised by a team of health professionals. **NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on observations, interviews, record review, and facility policy and procedure review, the facility failed to revise the comprehensive care plan to reflect the current level of care for one (Resident #42) of 3 residents sampled for falls, and failed to include one (Resident #54) of 2 residents sampled for care planning, out of a total of 63 sampled residents, the opportunity to participate in the development of the care plan. Failure to update the care plan puts the resident at risk of not receiving appropriate care interventions. Failure to include the resident or their representative in care planning ensures the resident lacks information that will assist the resident in making informed decisions about her health care. The findings include: 1. During an interview on 2/21/2023 at 9:32 AM with the contracted Nurse Practitioner for the facility, she stated that Resident #42 fell out of his wheelchair while his wife was pushing it and he was sent to the hospital. She could not remember the exact date. It was around Christmas time. He sustained a deep laceration to his head and needed 11 staples to close it. A review of Resident #42's medical record revealed he was admitted on [DATE]. Diagnoses included cancer, hypertension, diabetes mellitus, hyperlipidemia, Alzheimer's disease, malnutrition, anxiety disorder, depression, schizophrenia, dysphagia, muscle wasting, muscle weakness, sleep apnea, lymphedema, gastro-esophageal reflux disease without esophagitis, amnesia, benign prostatic hyperplasia with lower urinary tract symptoms, and chronic pain syndrome. The resident had one fall with major injury since the last assessment or since admission. (Copy obtained) A review of the electronic clinical record nursing notes for dated 10/13/2022 at 22:58 hours read: Patient was sent out post fall for a closed head injury. Contusion of the forehead. When he had fallen from his wheelchair. (Photographic evidence obtained) A review of the Situation, Background, Assessment and Recommendation (SBAR) form and witness statements from staff dated 12/23/2022 read that Resident #42 had a fall that occurred on 12/23/2023, resulted in a major injury and required the use of staples to close the laceration to the top of the resident's head. The fall occurred while the resident's wife was pushing him in his wheelchair to his room. As she pushed him around the corner, she was heard to be saying very loudly to her husband to pick up his feet. The nurse (Employee J) observed the resident's feet on the floor. (Copy obtained) On 2/21/2023 at 11:09 AM, a review of the resident's electronic care plan dated 5/08/2022 revealed the resident was care planned for being at risk for falls related to deconditioning, gait/balance (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 0657 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Few problems, incontinence, psychoactive drug use and fall. The goal was to minimize the risk for minor injury through the next review date. The care plan included the following interventions: Anticipate the needs of the resident; Be sure the resident's call light is within reach and encourage the resident to use it for assistance as needed; bed in low position; educate the resident/resident's representative/caregivers about safety reminders and what to do if a fall occurs; ensure that the resident is wearing appropriate footwear/non-skid socks when ambulating or mobilizing in wheelchair; patient evaluate and treat as ordered or as needed. Further review of the care plan revealed that there was no evidence that the care plan was revised or reviewed by the interdisciplinary team after the resident fell on [DATE] or on 12/23/2022. (Photographic evidence obtained) During an interview with Employee K, Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) on 2/23/2023 at 4:43 PM, she stated that she was the nurse that responded to Resident #42's fall on 12/23/2022. She stated, she saw it happen. She was approximately 20 feet away and could not get to him fast enough to prevent him from hitting his head. He fell forward out of the front of the wheelchair and hit his head on the double panic bolt bar on the fire door. She stated, Oh I remember it like it just happened. It was like a dolphin dive! She stated that he had fallen before. An interview was conducted with the Director of Nursing (DON) on 2/23/2023 at 5:27 PM about the falls. The DON confirmed that the care plan was not updated to reflect the falls on 10/13/2022 and 12/23/2022 and did not contain any updated interventions to prevent future falls or protections from injury. A review of the facility's policy and procedure entitled, Fall Management (effective date 11/30/2014, revised 7/29/2019) read: Residents are evaluated for fall risk. Patient centered interventions are initiated, based on resident risk. Purpose: Is to identify residents at risk for falls and establish/modify interventions to decrease the risk of further fall(s) and minimize the potential for a resulting injury. B. Fall Mitigation Strategies: 1. Develop resident centered interventions based on resident risk factors. 2. Update the resident's care plan and the Nurse Aide Kardex with interventions. C. Post Fall Strategies: 5. Update care plan and Nurse Aide Kardex with interventions. 8. Update plan of care with new interventions as appropriate. (Photographic evidence obtained) 2. On 2/21/2023 at 11:29 AM, Resident #54 stated that she wished to go home, and no one was assisting her with discharge. She added that she was capable of taking care of herself and would get home health services if needed. The resident added that she does not know who made the decision for her to stay at the facility because she had her own home. She said, Institutional living is not for me. Resident could not recall attending any care plan meeting. A review of Resident #54's medical record revealed she was admitted to the facility on [DATE] with a re-entry on 6/19/2022 with admitting diagnoses of muscle wasting and atrophy, cognitive deficit, and need for assistance with personal care. A review of the quarterly minimum data set assessment dated [DATE] indicated Resident #54 had a brief interview for mental status (BIMS) score of 9 out of 15 possible points, indicating moderate cognitive impairment. She required extensive assistance for bed mobility, transfer, and toilet use. She was independent with eating. According to the assessment, Resident's return to the community was uncertain. Resident #54's care plan dated 2/3/2022 indicated she wished to be discharged home. The care plan was updated on 3/10/22 and indicated the resident wished to remain in the facility for long term (continued on next page) FORM CMS-2567 (02/99) Previous Versions Obsolete Event ID: Facility ID: 105447 If continuation sheet Page 2 of 18 Printed: 05/28/2026 Form Approved OMB No. 0938-0391 Department of Health & Human Services Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services STATEMENT OF DEFICIENCIES AND PLAN OF CORRECTION (X1) PROVIDER/SUPPLIER/CLIA IDENTIFICATION NUMBER: (X2) MULTIPLE CONSTRUCTION 105447 B.

F 0657 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Few care. Interventions included to encourage the resident to discuss concerns. The care plan also indicated that resident is an elopement risk/wanderer related history of attempts to leave facility unattended. In an interview with the Social Services Director (SSD) on 2/22/2023 at 2:57 PM, she stated that the discharge plan is initiated upon admission. She added that she also visited the resident if there covered days were almost expiring before initiating a notice of medicate non coverage (NOMNC) to review their discharge plan. When asked about residents that were long term at the facility, but would wish to return to the community, she said, Residents who are long term can request discharge and time. The interdisciplinary team (IDT) also discuss discharge plan during care plan meeting, but I have to make sure that residents who wish to discharge have a plan on discharge location. She added that she had received requests for discharge from three long term care residents and Resident #54 was not among them. When asked if Resident #54 attended her care plan meetings, she stated that the MDS department would have a list of the attendees for each care plan. In an interview on 2/23/2023 at 12:52 PM, Employee D, Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN MDS) stated that when residents are admitted the care plan is done based on the hospital documentation and resident/ family interview. She added the care plan was updated quarterly. When asked about the process of care planning, she said, Resident family/representative are sent a letter a week prior to invite them to the care plan meeting. During the care planning meeting the staff and the families who are present sign the Care conference Card. She added that the resident should always be present and if resident does not participate in the care plan, a documentation should be included that attempts were made along with resident response. When asked if Resident #54 participates in her care plan, she stated that she would obtain the care conference cards to verify. After she obtained the care conference cards for 2022, she confirmed that Resident #54 did not attend in any of the meetings in 2022. There was no documentation proving any attempts were made to have resident attend the meeting. Review of the care conference dated 3/10/2022, 6/7/2022 and 11/29/2022 revealed that Resident #54 did not attend any of the care plan meetings.

F 0684 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm in the event of an acute situation. When asked, she stated the fall would have been considered an acute situation, however, she did not see the resident until 1/25/2023, two days after the fall with injury, then again on 1/26/2023 and 1/30/2023. On 2/2/2023, she documented the bruise the resident sustained during the fall as it was more prominent at that time. She stated there was no x-ray nor was Resident #6 sent out for evaluation and/or treatment. Residents Affected - Few During an interview with the Director of Nursing (DON) on 2/22/23 at 4:17 PM, she reviewed the details of Resident #6's fall on 1/23/2023. She confirmed the date of the fall and stated it occurred at 1:15 AM. The resident was observed next to her bed and sustained a laceration to the forehead 1 cm x 1 cm in size. The laceration was treated in house by the facility staff and the resident's physician was notified. When asked about post fall interventions, she stated the resident was re-educated to ask for assistance when getting out of bed. The DON was asked about the facility's fall process. She stated a facility wide code green is called when there is a fall. Nursing does the assessment and the doctor is called. She stated there is no physical documentation. She stated if a fall is unwitnessed neurochecks are performed. She confirmed the fall sustained by Resident #6 was unwitnessed and the resident would have needed neurochecks. She stated some of the neurochecks are done on paper as well as electronically. She stated the neurochecks are done within the first 15 minutes then every hour then every four hours after a resident sustains a fall. She was asked to provide the neurochecks done for Resident #6. She stated, they should be located in the resident's electronic chart. At this time, she was also asked to confirm the order for hospice services. She stated the facility was still verifying the order for hospice. She stated the order was put in by an agency nurse and was being investigated by the facility. She stated the facility needed to determine if the family or the doctor requested hospice services. During an interview with the DON on 2/22/2023 at 4:47 PM, she was advised the neurochecks for Resident #6 were not found in the electronic chart. She was given the physical chart retrieved from the nurses' station on the East Wing of the facility. In the presence of Administrator, the DON sorted through the resident's physical chart looking for the neurochecks that should have been done after resident sustained the fall on 1/23/2023. After several minutes, the DON confirmed there were no neurochecks in the resident's physical chart. During an interview with Employee E, the ARNP on 2/23/2023 at 11:52 AM, she confirmed she put in the consult for hospice service. She stated the diagnosis was failure to thrive. She stated the Power of Attorney for Resident #6 spoke to Hospice and the services were optional. She again stated the reason for her consult was the resident's failure to thrive. She was provided a copy of the hospice documentation showing atherosclerotic heart disease listed as admitting diagnosis. The ARNP was asked if this information was accurate. She stated, she can't prove a resident's primary diagnosis. She stated she puts in the consult, but she can't pick the resident's diagnosis. When asked about collaboration between herself, hospice, and the physician, she stated they meet in the facility. She stated the on-call team was notified after Resident #6 sustained the fall on 1/23/2023. She confirmed the resident sustained an injury as a result of the fall but stated she was fine and confirmed there were no post fall interventions put in place. She was asked in her professional opinion about residents who take anticoagulants who had falls and sustained a head injury with bleeding. She stated she would probably send the resident out, but Hospice would have to be called since this resident is on Hospice. During a phone interview with the Medical Director on 2/23/2023 at 12:01PM, he acknowledged being the Medical Director for the facility and member of the facility's Quality Assurance and Performance Improvement (QAPI) team.

First-In-First Out (FIFO) means that the first batch of product prepared and placed in storage should be the first one sold or used. Date marking foods as required by the Food Code facilitates the use of a FIFO procedure in refrigerated, ready-to-eat, TCS foods. The FIFO concept limits the potential for pathogen growth, encourages product rotation, and documents compliance with time/temperature requirements. .
