stated that the facility has 3 maintenance assistants, and the most senior maintenance assistant does
round once or twice a week to check the units. As he makes rounds, he makes notes of what needs to be
addressed and divides the items that need to be addressed amongst the 3-maintenance staff. There is a
work order binder at each nursing station and maintenance staff check binders several times a day and
schedule projects to be done with priority on call bells and air conditioning. They work with nursing to try to
accommodate the resident the best they can for maintenance issues in a resident's room. The Regional
Plant Operations Director makes rounds every other week (sometimes weekly) at the facility. The facility
has a Tels maintenance program that is in the process of being implemented. They are trying to have it put

Level of Harm - Minimal harm
or potential for actual harm
During an interview conducted on 09/22/22 at 10:16 AM with the Assistant Director of Nursing (ADON), she
acknowledged that Resident #115's name was not on the current Podiatrist Follow-up List nor on the Cut
Toenails List, located on the East wing, and there was no reference to any concerns or issues with
Resident #115's long, sharp, jagged toenails documented in the nursing progress notes from March 2022
till September 2022. The (ADON) also indicated that the nurses could have always requested an on-site
Podiatry visit, in between consults, since the facility does not do toenail care; this was not done.
Residents Affected - Few
Based on observation, interview, and record review, it was determined that the facility failed to ensure that
Resident #146 and Resident #115 received proper follow-up treatment and care to maintain good foot
health for 2 of 2 sampled residents observed for Activities of Daily Living (ADLs), Resident #106 and #115.
The findings included:
A review of the facility policy titled Podiatry, revised on 08/21/2017, showed that Podiatry consultations are
available to residents and that any team member may ask the attending Physician to request the Podiatry
consultation. Once the consult order is written or transmitted verbally, the License nurse will make the
referral.
1. A chart review showed that Resident #146 was admitted to the facility on [DATE] with diagnoses of
weakness, muscle wasting, and depressive disorder.
In an interview conducted on 09/19/22 at 10:10 AM, Resident #146 stated that he has been waiting to see
the Podiatrist and that he was told that they would make the appointment for him, but it ' s been very long.
The Minimum Data Set (MDS) dated [DATE] showed that Resident #140 has a Brief Interview of Mental
Status (BIMS) score of 13, which is cognately intact.
A review of the Physician ' s assistant notes dated 08/09/22, 08/04/22, and 06/03/22 showed that Resident
#146 has a left foot with a fractured bone and is given orders for No Weight Bearing, and he wants to see a
Podiatry regarding this.
A chart review showed an order for a Podiatry consultation dated 05/03/22. Further chart review showed a
patient referral order for a Podiatrist dated 02/21/22 that was never done for Resident #146.
In an interview with Staff B, the Registered Nurse, on 09/20/22 at 1:30 PM, stated that orders for Podiatry
consultations are placed in a communication binder in the nurses ' station and are picked up by nursing
staff. In this interview, the facility ' s Assistant Director of Nursing said that they also have an in-house
Podiatrist that comes into the facility every other Thursday. When asked why Resident #146 did not have his
Podiatry consultation, she did not know.
In an interview conducted on 09/2022 at 1:45 PM, Staff C, Unit Clerk, stated that she checks the
consultation status in the electronic system, or nurses will print out the consultation sheets and place it in a

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
observation, interview, and record review, the facility failed to adjust the tube feeding regimen to meet a
resident's caloric and protein needs, failed to follow the tube feeding order, and failed to prevent the
development of a new pressure ulcer for 1 of 1 sampled resident (Resident #30) reviewed for tube feedings.
The findings included:
A review of the facility's policy titled Enteral Feeding revised on 11/12/18 showed that the nurse administers
enteral feeding when volume control is indicated and as ordered by Physician.
A chart review showed that Resident #30 was initially admitted to the facility on [DATE] and readmitted
again on 09/09/22, with a medical history of Diabetes, Dysphagia, and Intracerebral Hemorrhage. He was
recently readmitted to the facility on [DATE] after having to go out to the hospital on [DATE] for Hypoxia and
Tachycardia.
In an observation conducted on 09/19/22 at 8:07 AM, Resident #30 was noted in his bed. The tube feeding
bottle was with Jevity 1.5 (tube feeding formulary) at 70 milliliters (ml) an hour and running at 70 ml an hour.
Closer observation showed that the tube feeding bottle started at 8:00 AM on 09/18/22 and was almost
empty at the observation time. The tube feeding bottle has a 1000 ml capacity. This showed that Resident
#30 only received a total volume of 1000 ml and not a total volume of 1400 as per MD orders.
Continued observation on 09/19/22 at 12:49 PM showed a tube feeding bottle with no start time but had a
start date of 09/19/22. It ran at 70 ml an hour and was at the 1000 ml mark out of a 1000 ml capacity bottle.
An observation conducted on 09/19/22 at 1:46 PM showed Resident #30 in his bed. The tube feeding was
not running, and that tube feeding bottle was noted at the 1000 ml mark out of a 1000 ml capacity bottle.
In an observation conducted on 09/20/22 at 10:20 PM, Resident #30 was noted in bed. Closer observation
showed a tube feeding bottle that was started on 09/20/22 at 9 AM at 70 ml an hour. The tube feeding mark
was at 1000 ml out of the 1000 ml capacity bottle. This showed that no tube feeding was infused for an hour
and a half.
A review of Physicians' orders showed the following: a one-time a day Jevity 1.5 at 70 ml an hour up
between 12:00 PM to 1:00 PM, down when the total volume of 1400 ml infused daily dated 09/10/22.
Prostat oral liquid to give 30 ml once daily for wound healing dated 09/10/22.
A review of the weight log showed the following weight history: on 05/19/22, he weighed 261 pounds; on
06/29/22, he weighed 255.2 pounds; on 09/09/22, a weight of 223.2 pounds and on 09/19/22, a weight of
230.0 pounds.
A review of the Nutrition assessment dated [DATE], a day after Resident #30 was readmitted from the
hospital, showed the following: Resident #30 is on enteral feeding with a current weight of 223.2

pounds. The current tube feeding order provides 2100 calories and 89 grams of protein a day. Resident #30
estimated needs were noted for 2100 to 2520 calories and 101 to 126 grams of protein. In this assessment,
the facility's Clinical Dietitian estimated Resident #30's needs using his Adjusted Body weight and
recommended a protein supplement daily for an added 17 grams of protein. She further stated that
Resident #30 would maintain adequate nutritional status in the absence of unplanned weight loss. The
Clinical Dietitian's tube feeding recommendations met the lower end of Resident #30's needs for calories
and protein daily. The current tube feeding rate with the additional protein supplement provides 106 grams
of protein out of the 126 grams of protein estimated on the higher end of the protein needs, which is 84
percent of protein needs.
A review of the Medication Administration Record for Resident #30 showed that the protein supplement
was only started on 09/12/22, which was 3 days after his readmission to the facility.
A progress note written on 07/28/22 by the Clinical Dietitian showed that Resident #30 had a stage 3
sacrum pressure ulcer, and she recommended providing Prostat protein supplement to 3 times a day. At
the time, Resident #30 ate by mouth and was not on tube feeding.
The care plan dated 08/19/22 showed that Resident #30 requires tube feeding related to dysphagia, and
the Clinical Dietitian to evaluate as needed and monitor caloric intake and estimated needs, and make
recommendations for changes to tube feeding as required. It further showed that Resident #30 is at risk for
developing pressure ulcers related to fragile skin.
A review of the wound care doctor note dated 09/12/22, which was 3 days after Resident #30's
readmission, showed the following: Resident #30 has wound #1 with inferior sacrum wound stage 4 that
has a length of 3 centimeters, a width of 3 centimeters and depth of 1 centimeter. Wound #2 was noted with
superior sacrum stage 3 has a length of 4 centimeters, a width of 5 centimeters, and a depth of 0.2
centimeters.
A review of the wound care doctor's note dated 09/19/22 showed the following: Resident #30 has wound #1
with inferior sacrum wound stage 4 that has a length of 2.5 centimeters, a width of 3 centimeters, and a
depth of 1 centimeter. Wound #2 was noted with superior sacrum stage 3 has a length of 5 centimeters, a
width of 0.2 centimeters, and a depth of 0.2 centimeters. A new wound that developed was assessed as
wound #3 on the left lateral buttocks stage 3, which has a length of 6 centimeters, a width of 1 centimeter,
and a depth of 0.1 centimeters.
An interview with the Clinical Dietitian on 09/21/22 at 9:43 AM stated that any residents who is admitted or
readmitted to the facility with a stage 3 pressure ulcer and above she would assess the protein needs using
a range of 1.2 to 1.5 multiplied by the body weight. She further stated that when evaluating tube feeding
needs on residents with stage 3 pressure ulcers and above, she will use the higher end of their needs for
protein and calories. When asked why she only recommended one scoop of protein supplement daily and
not twice a day or higher, she agreed with the Surveyor that it should have been more. When asked why
she estimated the tube feeding needs to meet the lower end of the needs for Resident #30, she reported
that Resident #30 was readmitted from the hospital. She did not want to overfeed the Resident and kept
him at the lower end of needs and see if he gained weight before increasing his caloric and protein needs.
Surveyor expressed concerns that Resident #30 developed a new wound since his readmission.
In an interview conducted on 09/21/22 at 10:36 AM with Staff B, the Registered Nurse stated that Resident
#30 tolerates his tube feeding with no issues. She further noted that the tube feeding may be

further said that Resident #30 was on pleasure feeding in the past before he was readmitted from the
hospital.
In an interview conducted on 09/21/22 at 12:15 PM, Staff D, Certified Nursing Assistant, stated that she
takes the weight for Resident #30 using a Hoyer lift. She takes off the sling's weight from that total reading

Ensure each resident receives and the facility provides food that accommodates resident allergies,
intolerances, and preferences, as well as appealing options.
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
observations, interviews, and record reviews the facility failed to ensure resident's received proper meal
preferences for 2 of 2 sampled residents (Resident #417, and #408). Both residents had complaints that
their meal choices were not being followed; one of the two residents was routinely served meals she could
not eat due to celiac disease and lactose intolerance.
The findings included:
1. During the initial tour of the facility conducted on 09/19/22 at 8:00 AM, the surveyor noted Resident #417
refused her original breakfast tray and asked for gluten free toast instead. Staff U, Social Services (who had
brought her breakfast tray to her) removed the original breakfast tray and made Resident #417 gluten free
toast per her request.
An interview was conducted with Resident #417 on 09/19/22 at 12:35 PM. Resident #417 stated that she
had celiac disease and lactose intolerance, and she was consistently brought food that she could not
consume. When asked by the surveyor if she has spoken to any staff members at the facility about this
issue, she stated she had spoken to a dietitian multiple times, but the kitchen continued to send her eggs,
food covered with gravy, and ice cream-all of which she had told the dietitian she could not consume due to
her dietary restrictions. She said a friend brought her gluten free bread, protein shakes, and fruit cups from
outside the facility and these items were what she had been eating for all of her meals due to the kitchen
consistently sending the wrong foods. During this interview, Resident #417's lunch tray was brought to the
bedside. She stated this was the first time she was served a tray with foods she could eat-mashed potatoes
and peas. There were also glazed carrots on the plate which Resident #417 said she would not eat
because she did not know what was in the glaze. During this interview and observation, the surveyor noted
the meal ticket on the tray documented no eggs, no meat, no milk and gluten free.
Resident #417 was admitted to the facility on [DATE]. Resident #417 had a medical history of sepsis,
nausea/vomiting, low blood pressure, neuropathy, depression, and gastric acid reflux. It was noted by the
surveyor during the initial record review that there was no documentation in the Medical History or Allergies
sections of the electronic chart of the presence of celiac disease or lactose intolerance.
An admission Minimum Data Set (MDS) assessment was in progress at the time of this survey. There was
no Brief Interview of Mental Status (BIMS) score documented in this MDS. However, the surveyor noted
during the initial interview that Resident #417 was alert and oriented and able to answer all questions
without difficulty.
During review of Resident #417's Care Plan, it was noted by the surveyor that there was no care plan in
place regarding her dietary preferences.
Review of the physician orders for Resident #417 revealed an order was written on 09/16/22 for a gluten
free diet.
Review of the notes in Resident #417's chart revealed the dietary department had not written any note at
the time of this survey.

During review of the Diet History and Food Preferences Assessment, dated 09/13/22, the surveyor noted
that see mealtracker was documented in the Likes/Dislikes section and in the Beverage Preferences
section. Under Food Allergies/Intolerances, gluten was documented but not lactose. The surveyor
requested the mealtracker to be printed by the Registered Dietitian. A Food Preference Assessment,
undated, was provided on 09/21/22 at 10:26 AM by the Registered Dietitian. This document showed
Resident #417's dislikes included dishes with gravy, eggs in all forms, all forms of hot cereal, shrimp,
hamburger steak/beef, pork products, and dairy products.
An interview was conducted on 09/20/22 at 8:45 AM with Resident #417 regarding what foods were
provided on her breakfast tray that morning. Resident #417 stated she received oatmeal on her tray; she
told the surveyor she would not eat the oatmeal because she did not trust that it was gluten free. She told
the surveyor she asked a staff member to toast her gluten free bread and the staff member refused, stating
they were not allowed in the kitchen to toast her bread. She said she told the staff member that someone
had made her toast the day before, but they continued to refuse her request. During this interview, Resident
#417 showed the surveyor a picture of her tray which included the meal ticket which documented no eggs,
no meat, no milk and gluten free.
An interview was conducted with the facility's Registered Dietitian on 09/21/22 at 10:30 AM. The surveyor
asked her to explain how the food dislikes are displayed on the resident's meal tickets. She stated that
since some residents have a lot of preferences, they often condense the preferences so the kitchen staff
gets a smaller list. She specified that the kitchen staff does not have access to the whole list of preferences
for each resident. When asked how often the residents are interviewed about their food preferences, she
stated the residents are interviewed on admission, quarterly, and if a complaint is made to staff about their
meals. When asked specifically about Resident #417's concerns, the Registered Dietitian confirmed that
she had spoken to her multiple times regarding the concerns but did not realize it was still an issue. The
Registered Dietitian was able to show the surveyor the meal tickets for the 3 meals on 09/21/22-all of the
meal tickets documented no eggs, no meat, no milk and gluten free.
An interview was conducted with Resident #417 on 09/21/22 at 11:15 AM. She stated her lunch and dinner
meals on 09/20/22 were mashed potatoes with vegetables and no gravy, so she was able to eat these
meals with no issue. However, for breakfast on 09/21/22, she was served 2 strips of bacon and hot cereal,
despite both of these foods being on her dislikes list. In this interview, Resident #417 stated she was going
to be discharged to home that day.
2. During the initial tour of the facility conducted on 09/19/22 at 8:35 AM, the surveyor noted Resident #408
was not eating her breakfast tray. During the initial interview conducted on 09/19/22 at 10:18 AM, Resident
#408 told the surveyor that the quality of the food at the facility was poor and the staff provided no food
alternatives when she asked for them. Resident #408 was admitted to the facility on [DATE].
Resident #408 had a medical history of falls, broken arm and leg, neuropathy, chronic obstructive
pulmonary disease, heart disease, anxiety, depression, and gallbladder removal.
An admission Minimum Data Set (MDS) was in progress at the time of this survey. This MDS shows
Resident #408 had a Brief Interview of Mental Status (BIMS) score of 13, indicating she was cognitively
intact.

outside the facility because she felt the facility's food did not meet her needs.
