F 0693 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Few Ensure that feeding tubes are not used unless there is a medical reason and the resident agrees; and provide appropriate care for a resident with a feeding tube. **NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on observations, interviews, and record review, the facility failed to follow tube feeding physician orders for 2 of 2 sampled residents reviewed for tube feedings (Percutaneous Endoscopic Gastrostomy / PEG), Residents #48 and #62.

F 0693 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Few the resident had a bottle of Jevity 1.5 (formulary type) of tube feeding hung at the bedside labeled as started on 06/22/23 at 5:00 AM. The tube feeding was at the 750 mark out of a 1,000 milliliter (ml) capacity bottle and was not infusing, indicating there was 750 mls remaining in the bottle. An observation was made on 06/26/23 at 9:30 AM of Resident #48 lying in bed. Upon closer observation, the resident had a bottle of Jevity 1.5 (formulary type) of tube feeding hung at the bedside labeled as started on 06/26/23 at 4:00 AM and was at the 400 mark out of a 1,000 milliliter (ml) capacity bottle and was not infusing, indicating there was 400 mls remaining in the bottle). During an interview conducted on 06/26/23 at 1:30 PM with the Licensed Dietician, who has been working at the facility for the past 5 weeks, and with Licensed Dietician Nutritionist (LDN), who has been working at the facility for the past 5 weeks, revealed that both staff members stated that as they were reviewing weights for residents, they identified that the residents' weights were not performed consistently the same way each time the resident was being weighed, meaning the resident may be weighed with Hoyer lift one time then weighed while in a wheelchair another time. At the time of discovering this inconsistency with the weights, they were unable to determine if residents with weight loss or significant weight loss were accurate. They put a Quality Assurance Performance Improvement plan for weights in place and it is currently in process. When asked about Resident #48, as to whether a tube feeding bottle that was started at 5:00 AM and was off at 10:00 AM (5 hours), that was to run at 70mls per hour, how many milliliters should be in the bottle after 5 hours, they stated there should be 650mls remaining in the bottle, which indicated the resident had received less than the amount they should have received. They both acknowledged that the resident received less than the amount they should have. During an interview conducted on 06/27/23 at 9:50 AM with Staff E Registered Nurse who stated she has been working at the facility for 19 years. When she was asked about residents who are receiving tube feeding if it is documented anywhere in the chart how much tube feeding the resident actually received, she stated we do not document the total volume infused. Most residents who have tube feeding have orders to stop the tube feeding at 10:00 AM and restart the tube feeding at 2:00 PM and we just document that on the MAR (Medication Administration Record. When asked if she verifies that the resident has received the correct amount of tube feeding, she said she does not really check to verify if the total volume infused, but maybe she should start checking. She said if a tube feeding pump keeps beeping, we remove the pump from use and central supply would send a new one. During an interview conducted on 06/27/23 at 9:58 AM with Staff C Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) who when asked about residents who are receiving tube feeding if it is documented anywhere in the chart how much tube feeding the resident actually received, she stated for most residents who are receiving tube feeding, there is an order to restart the tube feeding at 2:00 PM and at that time they clear the machine and put a new bottle of tube feeding up. When we stop the tube feeding at 10:00 AM, we check to make sure the total volume has infused but do not document this anywhere. The nurses always keep an eye on the pump to make sure it is plugged in. She stated she does not look at the machines every day unless something is wrong like it is beeping. She said sometimes a nurse may start the tube feeding a little late, when that happens, they run the tube feeding until the total amount has infused. We know the total amount to be infused because it is on the order. During an interview conducted on 06/27/23 at 3:40 PM with Staff D Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) who when asked about residents who are receiving tube feeding if it is documented anywhere in the chart how much tube feeding the resident actually received, he said no, we just make sure the pump is (continued on next page) FORM CMS-2567 (02/99) Previous Versions Obsolete Event ID: Facility ID: 105475 If continuation sheet Page 4 of 11 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 105475 B.
