Review of Resident # 54's care plan, dated 3/27/2024, showed a care plan focus area as: Resident 54 is at risk for abuse and neglect due to dementia, adapting to a new environment.

She further stated she did not know why the resident had an intervention showing that she needed to have a stop sign across her door. When she reviewed the resident chart, she did not see any assessments done to show why she would need to have a care plan put in place for a stop sign. She said if Resident # 54 is care planned to have a stop sign across her door, then she should have one.

He said he had an appointment but the first time there was a transportation issue and the second time there was an insurance issue. He said there is still not an appointment made. He brought the surveyor to his room, and he said he cleans his own trach six times a day because it gets clogged up with mucus.

F 0695 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm An interview was conducted on 05/08/24 at 04:33 PM with the Nursing Home Administrator (NHA). He said usually facilities don't accept residents with a laryngectomy because those tubes are $1600 each. He said the resident does all his own care related to his laryngectomy and he would have to review the record to see if the resident had competencies to ensure he knows how to properly clean and maintain his laryngectomy tube. Residents Affected - Few An interview was conducted on 05/09/24 at 08:31 AM with the Director of Nursing (DON). She said Resident #154 had a laryngectomy tube and he provides his own care. She said at his bedside there should be an ambu bag, trach ties, suction kit, trach care kit with a wire brush, gauze, and he is supposed to use normal saline to clean it. He does the cleaning himself and he changes the trach ties himself, he should have an extra laryngectomy tube at the bedside, and she confirmed he does not. She said they have ordered one, but it has not come in yet. The order sheet was requested to be provided. She said her expectation is the resident uses the wire brush in the trach care kit not paper towels to clean his laryngectomy tube. She said it was her understanding he rolls up the paper towels and uses them in his nose. She said the Respiratory Therapist came in and did an assessment on Resident #154 to ensure he can competently care for his laryngectomy tube and she said it was documented on the Respiratory Assessment and Recommendation form, dated 1/31/24. She reviewed the document and said the document says Laryngectomy pt, does self care. but she will look to see if there is another assessment performed. She said she was not sure what happened with Resident #154's ENT appointment. She said the facility tries to use the resident's insurance for transportation but if the facility needs to transport a resident to an appointment, then the Maintence department is the one who does the driving. An interview was conducted on 5/9/24 at 9:23 a.m. with Staff E, A-Wing UM. She said they ordered a new laryngectomy tube for him on 4/18/24. She said The resident was sent out on 4/18/24 to the hospital because his laryngectomy tube broke where the straps attach and every time, he coughed the tube would come out because the ties couldn't attach to it. I was under the impression the hospital fixed it and that is when we contacted [Respiratory Therapy Company] to get another tube and they said it would take three to five weeks to get it. She said the laryngectomy tube has been paid for and she would provide an invoice. An interview was conducted on 05/09/24 at 09:29 AM with Staff E, A-Wing UM. She said We don't have the invoice related to Resident #154's laryngectomy tube because all orders get sent up to our corporate company and they pay them. She provided hospital documentation dated 4/18/24 and said, All the documentation says is to follow up with his primary care physician and to return to the hospital only if needed. She confirmed there is no documentation related to what the hospital did for the resident. She also said Resident #154 had two ENT appointments the first time the office canceled his appointment because Resident #154's primary physician did not approve the insurance authorization for him to go. She said they called the doctor and let him know to authorize the appointment and we made Resident #154 another appointment. She said that appointment got canceled too because the insurance authorization was never completed again. A phone interview was conducted on 05/09/24 at 12:57 PM with Staff F, Respiratory Vendor Manager. He said he was familiar with Resident #154 and said he had a laryngectomy tube. He said an order was placed for an entire laryngectomy kit, which includes a new tube, was placed today (5/9/24) and there is a three-to-five-week delivery time. He said this is a specialty item they do not keep on the shelf so they had to special order it through a supply company and the Laryngectomy kit will be delivered to the facility as soon as it comes in.
