Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm **NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on record review and interview, the facility failed to collaborate with Hospice services for 1 of 1 sampled resident, Resident #95, as evidenced by contradictory code status documentation. Residents Affected - Few The findings included: Review of the record revealed Resident #95 was admitted to the facility on [DATE], with a subsequent admission to Hospice services as of 01/16/25. Review of the Minimum Data Set (MDS) assessment dated [DATE] documented the resident had a Brief Interview for Mental Status (BIMS) score of 3, on a 0 to 15 scale, indicating the resident was cognitively impaired. Review of the same assessment documented the resident had a terminal diagnosis and was on Hospice services. Review of the current electronic medical record (EMR) documented Resident #95 had a full code status, as noted on the banner or general information area of the EMR, meaning cardiopulmonary resuscitation would be initiated should the resident become unresponsive and without a heartbeat. A current order dated 03/19/25 also documented the Full Code status. The current care plan initiated on 05/22/24, and revised on 03/24/25, also documented the resident was a full code. Review of the discontinued orders revealed two orders from 01/24/25 through 03/19/25 that documented a DNR status. Review of the Hospice paperwork revealed a DNR (Do Not Resuscitate) order dated 01/16/25. During an interview on 05/08/25 at 2:16 PM, when asked how she would know the code status of a resident, Staff E, Registered Nurse (RN) stated she would check the banner in the EMR. The RN showed the surveyor the code status location on the banner of a random resident. When asked the code status for Resident #95, the RN looked in the EMR and stated the resident was a full code. When shown the DNR order and form in the Hospice paperwork, the RN was surprised. The RN stated she had never seen that form for Resident #95. When asked the process should a resident change their code status, the RN stated she was not sure as she just enters the code status for a resident upon admission to the facility. Further review of the orders revealed the order to admit Resident #95 to Hospice services was input into the EMR by Staff H, a Unit Manager. The order for the current DNR status was input into the EMR by the Director of Nursing (DON). During an interview on 05/08/25 at 2:40 PM, Staff H, Unit Manager, confirmed she had entered the current Hospice order. When asked if she reviews the code status with a change to Hospice services, the Unit Manager stated she did. During a side-by-side review of the Hospice paperwork, when asked why Resident #95 was not changed to a DNR status as per the DNR form found in the Hospice binder, the Unit Manager stated the form was not in the binder at that time and they did not have a copy of it anywhere. The Unit Manager stated they tried to call the daughter who did not answer or return their call. The Unit Manager also stated they contacted staff at the Hospice provider, who told them they were working on the DNR. When asked why she had changed the order to a DNR status on 02/07/25, the Unit Manager stated she did not recall.

The Findings included: Record review revealed Resident #35 was admitted to the facility on [DATE]. Review of the current Minimum Data Sheet (MDS) assessment dated [DATE], documented the resident had a Brief Interview for Mental Status score of 03, on a 0-15 scale, indicating severe cognitive impairment. During an interview on 05/05/25 at 10:42 AM, Resident # 56 (who is the roommate of Resident #35), stated My roommate fell out of bed a couple of nights ago, she was trying to change the air conditioner. I had to call for help and it took them a while to get here. I guess they were busy with someone else. I told Resident #35 not to move, because I know what can possibly happen if she moves. When asked who got Resident #35 off the floor, Resident #56 stated Two staff, the nurse and the aide. She fell really hard. I mentioned the fall to the nurse that worked the next morning. I have spoken to the Administrator and other nurses about Resident #35, because I think she should be in a different area of the facility, but I'm just told that these are the type of people we have here. During an interview on 05/06/25 at 09:06 AM, Resident #56, stated the DON came to me and said why didn't I tell her my roommate fell. She came in here with another administration staff confronting me. When asked, do you remember when Resident #35 had fallen, Resident #56 stated last Saturday at around 3:00 AM. When asked who did you report the fall to the next day, Resident #56 stated Staff P, Registered Nurse (RN). Review of a fall risk assessment dated [DATE], documented Resident #35 had not had any falls in the past three months. Further review of the progress notes for Resident #35 failed to reveal any documentation of a fall during the months of April 2025 or May 2025. Review of a care plan dated 3/24/25, documented that Resident #35 is at risk for falling related to her history of impaired mobility function, generalized weakness, impaired cognition with a goal to minimize the risk of falls. During an interview on 05/07/25 at 11:05 AM, when asked if she knows anything about a fall that Resident #35 had, Staff P stated No. When asked if Resident #56 reported to her that Resident #35 had a fall last week, Staff P stated No, who to me. If it was reported to me, I would have to do something. When asked if the nurse that she received report from reported that Resident # 35 had a fall, Staff P stated, No. When asked if she worked on Saturday 05/03/25 in the morning, Staff P, stated Yes. During an interview on 05/07/25 at 12:08 PM, when asked did you have any conversations with Resident #56 about a fall, the DON stated, I'm so sorry I didn't know that Resident #35 had a fall. I asked Resident #56 about her roommate falling, she couldn't tell me the exact date. One time she said Friday and then she told the administrator a different date. I have spoken to the nurse that was working the shift the night that the fall supposedly happened. The nurse that was working said the resident did not fall. When asked what the staff are supposed to do when a resident falls, the DON stated, Report it in writing. I have started my investigation with the staff regarding reporting falls.

This had the potential to affect 31 residents in the [NAME] Hall, memory support unit. The findings included: During an interview conducted on 05/06/25 at 9:20 AM, as a part of the initial screening process, a resident who wanted to remain anonymous said that [NAME] Hall needed more staff during weekends. She described the environment on the weekends as chaotic. A record review revealed that Resident #92 was admitted to the facility on [DATE]. Her medical history included Alzheimer's Disease, Unspecified Dementia, Anxiety Disorder, Oral Dysphagia, and Cognitive Communication Deficit. These diagnoses were present on admission. A review of the Minimum Data Set (MDS) annual assessment dated [DATE] revealed that Resident #92 had severe cognitive impairment. A review of Section E in the MDS assessment showed no changes in behaviors since the prior quarterly assessment was conducted. During observations in the Activities/Dining room in [NAME] Hall, on 05/07/25 at 4:50 PM Resident #92 took Resident #76's cup of ice water off the front table, and she drank from it. She placed the cup of ice water back on the table. On 05/07/25 at 4:55 PM, Resident #92 walked to the back table and took a cup of ice water from Resident #18. Resident #92 drank from his cup and then returned the cup to him. Resident #18 picked up his cup of water and he also picked up the cup of his friend who sat to his left, Resident #97.

When asked do you have a dislike for pork, Resident # 56 stated, No, I eat pork. I have told the kitchen several times to change that. I don't know why the other night I didn't get protein with my dinner because they usually give me fish if I can't eat the other meat. During an interview on 05/08/25 at 11:20 AM, when asked why Resident # 56 didn't receive a protein on her dinner tray, if the other entree on the menu for 05/6/25 was chicken, the Food Service Manager stated, I'm not sure. The Food Service Manger volunteered to print out the meal ticket for Resident #56 on 05/06/25. The meal ticket provided revealed that Resident #56 should have gotten the chicken on her dinner tray on 5/6/25, because it was the other entrée.
