meal tray positioned in front of him, on the over the bed table. Resident #42 was observed self-feeding
while using a fork to bring food to his mouth. Further observations revealed he was dropping bits of food
from his fork to his upper shirt area. Also, his shirt appeared liquid soaked, from when he took sips from his
hydration cup. Resident #42 dropped food from his fork to his shirt three times during this observed
timeframe. No staff were observed in the room to assist him or supervise him during the meal.

breakfast meal tray placed on the over the bed table positioned over his bed and lap area. Resident #42
was observed self-eating by bringing forkfuls of food to his mouth. He was observed with food on his shirt at
his stomach area. Staff had dropped off the tray, set up the meal and left the room. There was no
supervision with his eating.

several attempts, and with knocking food to his stomach area, he finally was able to get some food inside
his mouth. He continued to bring forkfuls of food to his mouth and at times dropping more food onto his
shirt. When asked about his meal, Resident #42 shrugged his shoulders. Resident #42 was asked if he
needed any help because he kept dropping food on his shirt, and he replied, Well, I don't know. During this
observation he was served his meal tray and all the way up to when staff picked up the tray, Resident #42
was not supervised or received assistance with eating from staff. No staff were observed in the room to
assist him or supervise him during the meal.

they pass and set up meal trays. Staff B revealed Resident #42 was able to self-feed and she sets up the
tray and leaves. She revealed Resident #42 should be supervised when eating. She confirmed he spills
food on himself from self-eating. She will see food on his shirt when she picks up the tray at a later time.

are to stay in the room with the resident and assist with eating/feeding assistance should the resident
require it.

supervision, and then confirmed she should probably be in the room with the resident when he eats his
meal. Staff B revealed it was hard to stay in the rooms and provide supervision only; when other residents
in the halls and unit need to be served and set up with their meals. She confirmed there are not enough
staff to appropriately set up, serve and supervise all residents on the unit. She explained the staff all help
out each other the best they can.

On 3/9/2022 at 10:10 a.m. an interview with Staff A, MDS Coordinator and the Regional MDS Coordinator
confirmed Resident #42 had been marked and observed at least one day during their assessment, for the
need for supervision with one person assist in relation to eating. They both confirmed the care plans
indicated the resident does require eating supervision and staff was to be in the room when he eats. They
were not aware that staff had been placing the meal tray in the room, setting up the meal and then leaving.
On 3/9/2022 at 10:30 a.m. an interview with the Staff J, Speech Therapist revealed she has had Resident
#42 on her case load for over thirty days, and the reason for the new order on 3/8/2022 was because they
have to reorder every thirty days. She has been observing him for aspirations during eating and does not
look at him for the ability to self-feed and that was more of physical and occupation therapy. She revealed
she has not seen him spilling food on his shirt but she does not see him or assess him every day, and only
has him on case load four times a week.
On 3/10/2022 at 9:50 a.m. an interview with the Therapy/Rehab Director revealed Resident #42 was
currently being seen by PT/OT (physical therapy/occupational therapy) and she was aware Resident #42
does eat on his own but requires some staff supervision in his room, when he eats. She was not aware,
prior to yesterday (3/9/2022), that staff were just dropping off his meal tray and then leaving the room until
coming back to pick up the tray. She did confirm he would benefit more with eating activities if staff were in
the room and supervised him during the entire meal service.
