F 0600 Level of Harm - Immediate jeopardy to resident health or safety Residents Affected - Few Protect each resident from all types of abuse such as physical, mental, sexual abuse, physical punishment, and neglect by anybody. **NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on interviews and record review, the facility failed to protect the resident's right to be free from deprivation of goods and services, by staff failing to provide one resident (#1) with Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation (CPR) per the resident's wishes out of eight residents sampled for advance directives. On [DATE] at approximately 3:00 a.m., Resident #1 became unresponsive during routine care. Nursing staff assessed Resident #1 and Emergency Medical Services (EMS) was called to the facility. Prior to EMS arrival, nursing staff reviewed the medical record and determined Resident #1 had a Do Not Resuscitate (DNR) order. Nursing staff provided oxygen at a high concentration via mask, and sternal rubs were intermittently applied with no response from the resident. The EMS team arrived and conducted an initial assessment. Resident #1 was noted with no heart rate and no respirations and was pronounced deceased at 3:29 a.m. At 3:40 a.m., nursing discovered the DNR order in Resident #1's chart belonged to Resident #11, and Resident #1 had an order for Full Resuscitation. This failure created a situation that resulted in a worsened condition and the likelihood for serious injury and or death to Resident #1 and resulted in the determination of Immediate Jeopardy on [DATE]. The findings of Immediate Jeopardy were determined to be removed on [DATE] and the severity and scope was reduced to a D after verification of removal of immediacy of harm. Findings Included: A review of the medical record revealed Resident #1 was admitted on [DATE] with diagnoses including encounter for orthopedic aftercare following surgical amputation, Type I Diabetes Mellitus without complications, dysuria, muscle weakness, dysphagia following unspecified cerebrovascular disease, sleep apnea unspecified, obstructive and reflux uropathy unspecified, acquired absence of other right toe(s), and major depressive disorder single episode in full remission. A review of physician orders for Resident #1 showed an order for Full Code, dated [DATE]. A review of Resident #1's care plan, dated [DATE], showed a focus area of advanced directives FULL CODE with an initiated date of [DATE] by the Social Services Director (SSD) and an intervention for this focus area to include: discuss advance directives with resident and or resident's representative. A review of Resident #1's Minimum Data Set (MDS), dated [DATE], Section C- Cognitive Patterns showed a Brief Interview for Mental Status (BIMS) score of 15 indicating cognitively intact. A review of Section GG-Functional Abilities and Goals Section GG0130-Self-Care showed Resident #1 dependent for (continued on next page) Any deficiency statement ending with an asterisk (*) denotes a deficiency which the institution may be excused from correcting providing it is determined that other safeguards provide sufficient protection to the patients.

The nurse will let the physician know if the resident decides they want to be a DNR. We will contact the physician and the Social Services Director regarding the resident's code status. Social Services Director is the one who will place the proper paperwork in the chart stating, he's the only one. If the resident comes in with their DNR paperwork it will get uploaded into the chart and placed in front of the hard chart. Staff J, LPN/UM stated, multiple copies are always available in chart. If not, we will get yellow paper from Social Services and make copies. Social Services will come to us with yellow paper if resident is new to DNR and we will place the order in his chart. Staff J, LPN/UM, stated she does not know his process, only what the nursing staff responsibilities. Staff J, LPN/UM stated if a resident states their code status to the staff, the nurse will contact, inform and obtain an order for the Code Status and the nurse will write a note of the conversation with the physician in the progress note. From there, the resident would sign the form if they chose to be a DNR and this form will be faxed or emailed to the physician to sign. Once signed by the physician, the form is faxed or emailed back and social services will place into the hard chart; however, the order was placed in the electronic chart. There may be a short time lapse of twenty-four to forty-eight hours before social services place the yellow DNR paperwork in chart, especially over the weekend, but the staff will have the physician orders to go by. Staff J stated when a resident leaves the facility with plans to return, a bed hold is initiated for seven days, and the hard chart will be saved as is until the resident returns.
