Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm **NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on observation, interview and record review, the facility failed to keep the call light in residents' reach for those able to use it for 3 of 41 residents, (#104, 36 & 67). Residents Affected - Few Findings 1. Resident #104's medical record reflected that the resident was admitted to the facility on [DATE] with diagnoses including chronic respiratory failure, muscle weakness, difficulty walking, dependence on supplemental oxygen and anemia. On 7/29/19 at 11:07 AM, resident #104 sat in a wheelchair with the overbed table in front of him. The table had magazines and a styrofoam cup with a straw. The wheelchair was between the resident's bed and the bathroom. The resident picked up his cup to drink water, he shook the bottle and said, It's empty, I need some water. The resident looked around to use his call light and said, It's way over there, I can't reach that. The call light was attached to opposite side on the side rail. On 7/30/31/19 at 9:40 AM, Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA) B stated residents should always be able to reach call lights in their rooms. On 7/31/19 at 10:08 AM, License Practical Nurse LPN (C) stated that CNAs are expected to ensure that the call light is always within resident's reach. A review of resident #104's 14-day Minimum Data Set (MDS) assessment dated [DATE] documented a Brief Interview for Mental Status (BIMS) score of 15/15 indicating the resident was cognitively intact. The functional status section G listed resident needed physical assistant for walking, eating, and toilet use. Resident #104's care plan dated 7/11/19 read, resident is at risk for falls related to decreased strength and endurance. Interventions included call light within reach. The care plan also reflected that the resident was continent of stool and required use of an indwelling catheter related to obstructive uropathy. The resident was at risk for incontinence related to weakness, impaired mobility, and disease process. Interventions included encourage resident to request assistance with toileting task. The resident would not be able to request assistance without the use of the call light within reach. 2. Resident #36 was admitted to the facility on [DATE] with diagnoses including muscle spasm of back, polyosteoarthritis, and rheumatoid arthritis.

F 0558 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Few On 7/30/19 at 10:04 AM, the resident was in bed with the head of the bed elevated. She spoke in Spanish with facial grimace and pointed to her back. Bilingual housekeeper E interpreted that resident complained of back pain. The resident tried to use the call light to call the nurse but could not reach it. The call light was on the floor between both beds. On 7/31/19 at 11:11 AM, CNA F stated, I know the resident gets pain medicine because she has arthritis. She sometimes says her back hurts but helping her to change position helps her. The resident's call light should always be within her reach. At 11:40 AM, licensed practical nurse (LPN) G stated the resident gets routine pain medication, Tramadol. She is followed by the rheumatologist who gives her injections every 6 months. The resident can use her call light. The expectation is that she should always have access to the call light. Resident #36's quarterly MDS assessment dated [DATE], reflected a BIMS score of 9/15 indicating moderate cognitive impairment. The section for health condition reflected that the resident had been on scheduled pain medication. Resident #36's care plan, dated 5/23/19 read, Incontinent episodes of bowel and or bladder relating to impaired cognition, communication and mobility related to dementia.

Resident #67 was admitted to the facility on [DATE] with diagnoses including difficulty walking, muscle weakness, urinary tract infection, osteoarthritis, and chronic congestive heart failure. On 7/31/19 at 9:38 AM, resident #67 sat in a wheelchair on the opposite side of the call light. The call light was attached to the left side of the bed. The resident sat on the right side of her bed. The resident stated she was waiting for the CNA to make her bed because she wanted to get back in the bed. At 9:40 AM, CNA B stated that whenever the resident would like to call me for help, she used the call light. Right now, the call light is on the opposite side wrapped around the side rail of the bed, closer to her roommate. The resident was in her wheelchair between her bed and the bathroom and she cannot get to the call light. She said, I should always make sure the call light is within the resident's reach. At 10:08 AM, LPN C stated that CNAs are expected to ensure that the call light is always within resident's reach. Resident's #67's 30-day MDS assessment dated [DATE] documented a BIMS score of 13/15 indicating she was cognitively intact. The functional status listed the resident as needed physical assist for bed mobility, and transfer.

F 0561 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Few Honor the resident's right to and the facility must promote and facilitate resident self-determination through support of resident choice. **NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on interview and record review, the facility failed to honor resident's food preference for 1 of 3 resident reviewed for choices, (#106). Finding: Resident #106 was admitted to the facility on [DATE], with her most recent readmission on [DATE]. Her diagnoses included pleural effusion, end stage renal disease, diabetes type II, atherosclerotic heart disease and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. The Medicare 5-day minimum data set (MDS), with assessment reference date 7/21/19, showed resident #106's cognition was intact, with a brief interview of mental status of 12/15. The resident required extensive assistance of one person for bed mobility, transfers, dressing, toilet use, and personal hygiene, and supervision for eating. The food and beverage preference list for resident #106 was obtained on 3/27/18, and showed that her dislikes included pork chops, pork roast, ham, sausages, and bacon. On 7/30/19 at 10:09 AM, resident #106 said she did not eat pork, and was served pork for supper on 7/29/19, on her return from dialysis. Resident #106 said she told staff she did not eat pork, and asked for something else, but was told the kitchen was closed. The resident said she had to eat walnuts and bread she had in her room. Resident #106's daughter visited the resident at this time, and confirmed the resident's report. On 7/31/19 at 2:30 PM, assistant certified dietary manager (ACDM) I said food preferences were obtained from residents on the day of admission or the following day. Review of the resident's food and beverage preference list provided by the ACDM showed the resident's dislikes included pork. On 7/31/19 at 2:46 PM, the resident's food and beverage preference list was also reviewed with registered dietician (RD) J. She verified that dislikes checked included pork chops, and pork roast. The RD said she was not sure why resident #106 was served pork on Monday 7/29/19. On 7/31/19 at 4:19 PM, certified nursing assistant (CNA) K said on Monday 7/29/19, when he served resident # 106 her meal tray, she told him to open the lid. The resident then asked what kind of meat was on her tray. CNA K said he told her he would verify by reviewing the menu. When he checked, it was pork. CNA K said that he commented to resident # 106, I know you are not going to eat it. She said that's right, I am Muslim. CNA K said the resident asked him to get some food from the refrigerator that her daughter had brought in for her, but the food had been thrown out. The CNA K said resident #106 asked him to go to the kitchen, and ask for chicken tenders. He stated that chicken tenders were not available. He got a fruit plate, crackers, and hot tea for the resident. A second interview was conducted with the RD and ACDM on 8/01/19 at 10:06 AM. They said the worker on the tray line might not have placed the correct item on the resident's tray. The staff checking the trays also did not catch the error. Both the RD and ACDM said the food preferences for resident #106 should have been honored, and the resident should not have been given pork. The ACDM said it was a mistake.

Nursing progress notes, dated 5/22/19, 6/17/19 and 7/15/19, showed the resident was transferred to an acute care hospital due to changes in her medical condition. The resident's electronic and physical chart revealed the Ombudsman Notification attached to the transfer documents for transfer of 7/10/19 had missing documentation, including the reason for transfer, the effective date of the transfer, and the location to which the resident was transferred. This was verified by the assistant director of nursing (ADON). Notification to the Ombudsman for transfers on 5/22/19, and 6/17/19 could not be identified. On 8/01/19 at 2:49 PM, the Social Services Director (SSD) said that previously, notification of transfers/hospitalizations were sent to the Ombudsman on a monthly basis, but now notification was sent on a weekly basis. Notification to the Ombudsman was not identified for resident #106 for transfers on 5/22/19 and 6/17/19. On 8/01/19 at 3:45 PM, the director of nursing (DON) said that with any change in condition of a resident, the physician and family should be notified, and the bed hold acknowledgement/reservation policy, and Ombudsman notification was required. On 8/01/19 at 4:45 PM, the DON and ADON said after review, documentation could not be identified regarding the Ombudsman notification for transfers of 5/22/19 and 6/17/19. The DON said the expectation is that the Ombudsman notification should be completed for all residents transfers/hospitalizations. She verbalized that this was not done for resident #106.

F 0684 Provide appropriate treatment and care according to orders, resident’s preferences and goals. Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Based on interview and record review, the facility failed to follow physician's order for weekly weights for 1 of 1 resident reviewed for edema out of 41 total sampled residents, (#21). Residents Affected - Some Findings: Resident #21's medical record reflected an admission date of 10/26/18. Her diagnosis included atherosclerotic heart disease, atrial fibrillation, diabetes type II, hypertension, and cardiac pacemaker. The quarterly minimum data set (MDS) assessment with assessment reference date (ARD) 1/31/19 showed the resident required extensive assistance for bed mobility, transfers, dressing, eating, toilet use, and personal hygiene. The Significant Change MDS with ARD 5/02/19 showed improvement in the resident's functional ability. She now required limited assistance for bed mobility, transfers, dressing, eating, toilet use, and personal hygiene. The Physician's order, dated 6/27/19, was for weekly weight every night shift every Tuesday for edema, start date 7/02/19. Resident #21's medications included Bumex 0.5 milligrams (mg.) twice daily. Bumex is a diuretic that helps to rid the body of salt and water (Mayo Clinic). Record review showed the following entries for the resident's weight: 6/09/19: 155.6 pounds (lb.) and 7/02/19: 148.5 lb, for a total weight loss of 7.1 lb. Three weeks of weights were not documented in the resident's chart after 7/02/19. On 7/31/19 at 9:34 AM, licensed practical nurse (LPN) G said if a resident was on weekly weights, the weight would be obtained on the night shift. Weights should then be entered in the computer. Weights were reviewed with LPN G, who verified that the last documented weight for resident #21 was on 7/02/19. No other weight could be identified by LPN G for resident #21. On 7/31/19 at 11:32 AM, the unit manager (UM) said weekly weights were usually done by the 11 PM-7 AM staff. If staff were busy, the restorative certified nursing assistant would obtain the weights. The UM verified that resident #21 had a physician's order for weekly weights, and the last documented weight was on 7/02/19. The UM said she could not say why the resident's weight was not done. She said in reviewing the treatment administration record (TAR) for July 2019, it showed that resident #21 refused the weekly weights on 7/09/19, and 7/23/19. The UM said the facility's protocol, if a resident refused treatment, was for staff to notify the physician. Documentation could not be identified to indicate the physician was notified of the resident's refusal of her weekly weights. This was verified by the UM. On 8/01/19 at 1:10 PM, the director of nursing (DON) said if treatment was refused by the resident, the expectation is that the physician would be notified. The resident's TAR for July 2019 was reviewed with the DON, and assistant DON. The TAR indicated that the resident's weight was obtained on 7/02/19; she refused on 7/09/19 and on 7/23/19. The TAR also indicated the resident's weight was obtained on 7/16/19, but review of the Weights and Vitals Summary showed no weight documented corresponding with this date. Documented weights were 7/02/19 148.5 lb., and the next entry was on 7/29/19 146.3 lb. This was verified by the DON.
