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
record review, observations and interviews, the facility failed to implement care plan interventions with
relation to bed rail use and bed rail monitoring for seven of sixty-one sampled residents (#64, #43, #40,
#62, #38 and #56, and #55), during four of four days observed (4/11/2022, 4/12/2022, 4/13/2022, and

in low bed, flat and under the covers with his feet hanging off the right side of the bed. There were ½
bed rails/enablers up and in position. Both side rails appeared not secured and loose fitting. Once the bed
rails/enablers were handled, it was found they swayed approximately two to three inches from side to side.
It was determined that they were not tightened enough next to the bed frame to ensure resident positioning
safety.
On 4/12/2022 at 10:00 a.m., 1:10 p.m. and 4/12/2022 at 7:40 a.m. and 11:10 a.m. Resident #64's room was
observed, and he was noted in low bed and with both side rails up and in place. The call light was placed

pulled up to his stomach. Both side rails/enablers were again observed up and in position but still loose and
not secured enough for the resident to use safely.
On 4/13/2022 at 7:40 a.m. and 10:00 a.m. Resident #64's room was approached and entered. Upon
entering the room, the resident was observed lying in bed, flat and under the covers and not presenting
with any behaviors, pain, or discomfort. However, observations of both bed rails/enablers still loose fitted
and were not secured in a manner where the resident could utilize them safely. Resident #63 has been
observed to grab at them during several observed visits dated from 4/11/2022 through 4/14/2022.
Review of Resident #64's medical revealed he was admitted to the facility on [DATE]. Review of the
advance directives revealed he had a Power of Attorney in place. Review of the Minimum Data Set (MDS)

decision-making skills); (Activities of Daily Living ADL to include extensive assist to total dependent with
most to all ADLs.
Review of the current Physician's Order Sheet dated for month 4/2022 revealed an order to include: Half
side rails when in bed as enabler for bed mobility, with an original order date of 11/22/2021.
Review of the current care plans with next review date 5/26/2022 revealed care plan problem areas to
include but not limited to:
a. Resident #64 is using 2 half side rails and is at risk for entrapment and injury with interventions in place
to include but not limited to: Ensure proper positioning, Explain risks and benefits, Frequent check while
resident is in bed, Have maintenance check the side rails if found loose or found with any issues, Have side

Facility-provided policy titled Specific Medication Administration Procedures, revised January 2018, Page
125, under Metered Dose and Dry-Powder Inhalers revealed:
Q. For Steroid inhalers, provide resident with cup of water and instruct him/her to rinse mouth and spit
water back into cup.
On 04/12/2022 at 09:48 a.m., an observation of medication administration with Staff G, Licensed Practical
Nurse (LPN), was conducted with Resident #98. Staff G, LPN was observed administering Advair Diskus
100-80 microgram (MCG)/Dose Aerosol Powder 1 puff by mouth. Once the medication was completely
administered by Staff G, LPN, she did not ensure the resident rinsed her mouth, and spit out the contents
afterwards. An immediate interview was conducted with Staff G, LPN who confirmed she did not have the
resident rinse her mouth and spit the contents out afterwards.
On 04/12/2022 at 10:17 a.m., an observation of medication administration with Staff G, LPN, was
conducted with Resident #275. Staff G, LPN was observed administering Acetylcysteine Solution 20% 2

due to be given at 08:00 a.m.
In an interview with the Director of Nursing (DON) on 4/13/2022 at 09:59 a.m., he stated My expectation is
the nurse would say something to the Resident so she could swish and rinse remainder medication out of
her mouth. [Staff G, LPN] should have said something as a nurse and stated that she needed help with
medication administration.
During a telephone interview with the Consultant Pharmacist on 04/14/2022 at 04:41 p.m., he was informed
of the observations made during medication administration and stated, Sounds like an excellent teaching

On 04/12/12022 at 5:06 p.m. an observation of the South Hall Medication Cart #1 included one loose tablet
in the second drawer. Staff K, RN confirmed the presence of the unsecured gray pill.
On 4/12/2022 at 3:00 p.m. an observation was conducted of the North Hall medication room with Staff J,
RN. The refrigerator contained a tan lock box observed to not be permanently attached to the refrigerator.
Staff J, RN opened the box and the EDK (Emergency Drug Kit) of insulin, also included two unopened vials
of Lorazepam 1ml/2MG/ML (milliliter and milligram).
On 4/12/2022 at 5:20 p.m. an observation was conducted of the East Hall medication room with Staff M,
RN Unit Manager (UM). During the observation, the tan lock box was not permanently affixed to the
refrigerator. The box was taken out of the refrigerator and opened. The box contained an unopened EDK
with insulin, and two unopened vials of Lorazepam 1ml/2MG/ML inside the EDK. There were two punch
cards of Dronabinol Capsules an one was observed with 10 capsules and the other had two capsules.
On 04/13/2022 at 5:49 p.m., an interview with the Director of Nursing (DON) was conducted. He was
informed of all the observations and indicated staff had brought him unsecured tablets. He stated, I expect
if pills pop out of the punch cards, staff put it in the drug buster to dispose of them. The medication carts
should be closed and locked once the nurse leaves the cart and walks away into resident rooms. I did not
know the Lorazepam was in the EDK in with insulin, and that is how they (pharmacy) are sending the
medication to use. The DON further indicated the medications are in locked boxes but did not know they
were not permanently affixed to the refrigerator.
On 4/13/2022 at 4:41 p.m. a telephone interview was conducted with Pharmacy Consultant. He stated, No
medications should be left at bedside unless there is a physician order to do so, and an order to
self-administer those medications; as for loose pills in the medications carts, the staff need to look out for
that, and they need to make sure they look out for locking their medication carts. Schedule IV medications
should be permanently affixed to the refrigerator, and the policy is currently under review with the facility.
We are looking to move the Lorazepam medication into the Pyxis unit.

twelve residents with wounds was completed in a sanitary manner to promoted healing.
Residents Affected - Few
Findings included:
Resident #44 was admitted on [DATE]. The admission Record included diagnoses not limited to Parkinson's
Disease, Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus without complications, and End Stage Renal Disease.
A Weekly Wound Evaluation, dated 4/7/22, identified a Diabetic Right Heel ulcer that measured 1.5 x 2.5 x
0 centimeter (cm). The evaluation indicated a small/minimal serous exudate with a wound bed of 26-50%
granulation and 26-50% necrotic tissue.
The physician's order, dated 4/4/22, for treatment identified the following regarding the dressing of the right
heel: Silver alginate packed Right (R) heel, Abdominal (ABD) roll gauze three (3x) times a week (wk).

An observation was conducted with Staff O, Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) on 4/13/22 at 1:46pm, of the
right heel wound treatment for Resident #44. The staff member had parked the treatment cart inside the
resident's room. Staff O removed a pair of scissors from a cloth pouch, laid them on top of the treatment
cart, then applied gloves. Staff O cut the previously applied rolled gauze from the right heel, which was
stained reddish-brown at the heel, then laid the scissors back on top of the cart. Staff O ungloved, removed
wound cleanser from the cart, gloved (she did not perform hand hygiene), and sprayed a portion of the
previous dressing loose. She held the dressing below the wound, sprayed the wound cleanser into the
wound and then pressed the old dressing into the wound. The staff member searched the cart for a
biohazard bag and then removed the trash liner from the room's trash can and placed it on the floor in front
of the cart. Staff O removed a stack of 4x4 gauze pads from an open sleeve and patted the wound. She
pushed Resident #44's over-bed table and wheelchair out of the way and retrieved a package of dressing
from the resident's bedside dresser. The staff member unwrapped the foam optifoam and alginate, and then
picked up the alginate from the package. She did not perform hand hygiene or replace gloves.

walls and table positioned below and at the window and in between the two glass sliding doors. Residents
had been observed in this room and the room was used for resident activities, family visitation and some
dining.
On 4/14/2022 at 9:15 a.m. Staff A, Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA), Staff B, CNA and Staff C, CNA all
confirmed the 300 hall/unit has been observed with small flying insects at times. They all indicated they
report any insect sightings by two ways. One way was to document in their electronic record, which turns
into a maintenance work order, and the other way was to physically speak to the Unit Manager and the
Maintenance Director. Staff A, B, and C further confirmed the pest control company treats the facility about
once a month. They stated they felt the small flying insects and the ants always come back. An interview at
this time with Staff D, Registered Nurse (RN) revealed she does notice little flying insects while seated at
the nurses' station and has seen some out in the hallways as well. She had not spoken with maintenance
about it and did not know when the last time pest control was out to treat the inside of the building.
On 4/14/2022 at 7:30 a.m. to 8:30 a.m. interviews with random residents (#24, #41, #85, #4, #96, and #27)
all revealed they routinely see various types of bugs in the hallways and other spaces. They also confirmed
they see bugs in their rooms as well. They continually report this to nursing staff and see pest control come
out to treat. However, they felt the pest control company does not fix the problem, because they see the
bugs after the pest control company treats the building.
On 4/14/2022 at 12:30 p.m. the Nursing Home Administrator (NHA) and Maintenance Director were
interviewed related to the facility's pest control program. The Maintenance Director revealed the facility has
a contract with a pest control company and they come out routinely; about once a month. However, he
explained they have additional calls for them to come out and treat outbreaks of various pests, more than
monthly. The Maintenance Director confirmed the building was older and with the placement of the building
within a wooded area, they are always fighting to keep bugs, pests and insects out from the inside of the
building. The Maintenance Director revealed floor staff are to do Angel rounds in rooms and spaces on a
daily basis and if they see any pests, they are to report it to him through a work order system, and then he
can work on treating himself or calling the pest company to make visits to treat. The Maintenance Director
also revealed he is short on maintenance workers and he is currently trying to hire staff for his department.
The Maintenance Director and NHA both confirmed they were not aware of the ants and small flying insects
on the 300 unit.
Review of the pest control log revealed the pest control company visited the facility to treat for ants,
cockroaches, and flies and touch up. The dates of the visits included 4/12/2022, 3/28/2022, 3/15/2022,
2/28/2022, 2/18/2022, 2/14/2022, 1/26/2022, 1/17/2022, and 1/7/2022.
3. On 4/11/22 at 12:00 p.m., a spray bottle labeled (Bleach Cleaner Brand Name) was observed sitting on a
resident dresser in room [ROOM NUMBER], next to the television. Resident #33 stated that it was killing
the cucaracha's (cockroaches) that came out at night. The south-wing Unit Manager (UM) observed this at
10:04 a.m. on 4/14/22. She opened the bottle up and stated she did not know what it was, the liquid in the
bottle did have a slight chlorine smell. The UM removed it stated, Absolutely not the bottle should be in the
resident room.
2. During an interview on 04/11/22 at 12:37 p.m. Resident #57 indicated there are ants and roaches in the
facility, and stated, Everyone knows, I tell everyone, no one does anything about it, I cover everything and
still ants, and roaches.
