F 0658 Ensure services provided by the nursing facility meet professional standards of quality. Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Based on observation, interview, and record review, the facility failed to ensure medications were administered according to professional standards of practice for 1 of 6 residents with gastrostomy tubes, Resident #31, and failed to ensure follow-up appointments were scheduled for 1 of 3 reviewed residents, Resident #189. Residents Affected - Few Findings include: 1. During an observation of medication administration on 3/9/2023 at 5:34 AM, Staff I, Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN), crushed two medications and placed them in a medication cup and poured five milliliters of water into the medication cup from the water pitcher. Staff I mixed the medication with a spoon and removed two large pieces of ice that were heavily coated with medication and threw the ice into the garbage. Staff I then administered the medications leaving a large amount of medication residual in the medication cup. Staff I did not administer a water flush before administering the medications. During an interview on 3/9/2023 at 6:05 AM, Staff I, LPN, stated, I should not have thrown out the ice. It did have a lot of medication on it. I should have flushed the resident's tube before I gave the medication and should have made sure all the medication was administered by adding more water to the cup. I should not have mixed the medications together in the same cup. During an interview on 3/9/2023 at 8:30 AM, the Director of Nursing (DON) stated, I expect that the nurses will verify that medications were actually administered and have not fallen out of their mouths or onto the floor. Medications administered through a gastrostomy tube should be administered separately with water flushes in between and all of the medication should be administered. Review of the facility policy and procedure titled, Medication Administration issued on 4/1/2022 reads, Policy: It will be the policy of this facility to administer medications in a timely manner and as prescribed by the physician, unless otherwise clinically indicated or necessitated by other circumstances such as lack of availability of medication or refusals of medication by the resident.

Review of the physician order for Resident #191 dated 4/10/2022 reads, Flush feeding tube with 150 cc [cubic centimeter] water 5 times daily, five times a day for flush. Review of the physician order for Resident #191 dated 6/13/2022 reads, Enteral Feed Order three times a day Jevity 1.5 carton (237 cc) bolus 3 x [times] per day flush with 50 cc of water pre/post bolus. Review of Resident #191's weight summary documented weights of 205.8 pounds on 4/20/2022, 205.8 pounds on 4/23/2022, no weight in May 2022, 185.2 pounds on 6/12/2022, and 176 pounds on 6/16/2022. Review of the nutritional progress note for Resident #191 dated 6/13/2022 reads, Resident triggers for a significant weight loss of 10% in approximately 2 months since initial admit. Current weight is 185.2# [pounds] and BMI is 26.6 [overweight], usual weight greater than 200# per records. Resident remains NPO [Nothing By Mouth] with TF [tube feeding] for nutrition/hydration. He has been having behaviors of agitation and disconnecting TF when being administered- may account for some weight decline. No current wounds identified at this time by nursing. No recent labs available for review. Current TF regime Jevity 1.5 at 75 milliliters per hour times 20 hours with free water flushes of 300 mils [milliliters] Q [every] 6 hours (1200 mils/d) higher orders are providing 1500 milliliters/day of formula 2250 kcals, (27 kcals/kg), 96 g pro (1.1g/kg) and 1140 mils free water. Due to resident disconnecting TF and weight showing a decreasing trend, will recommend: 1. Change TF to nocturnal feedings of Jevity 1.5 at 80 milliliters per hour times 12 hours (6-6) with bolus feedings of 1 carton Jevity 1.5 TID with flushes 50 mils free water before and after bolus feedings while resident is awake. Continue 300 mils flushes Q 6 hours. New orders will provide 960 mills/d formula at nocturnal feedings 711 mills bolus feedings= 1671 mills/d, 2507 kcals (30 KCALS/kg), 170 G pro (1.3/kg) and 1270 mills free water plus 1500 mills flushes equals 2770 mills/d (33 mls/kg). New order should help better meet needs and allow for time detached from feeding during the day for quality of life. Will continue to monitor weights weekly and follow up with resident as needed.

During an interview on 3/8/2023 at 9:54 AM, the Registered Dietician (RD) stated, This would have caused additional weight loss if the resident was not receiving additional bolus feedings. He would not have the needed calories and free water. I was not aware that he was not receiving his bolus feedings. During an interview on 3/8/2023 at 11:30 AM, the Director of Nursing (DON) stated, I see that he had a significant weight loss and we did a QAPI [Quality Assurance and Performance Improvement] around that time related to weights. There is no evidence in the chart that the doctor or the wife was notified of the significant weight loss. They both should have been notified. I do see that we did not give him the ordered bolus feedings on 6/13, 6/14 and 6/15/2022. I don't see that the nurses documented that they gave these. It would add to weight loss if residents aren't getting the calories to meet their needs. We should have administered the bolus feedings and we should have documented that we did it. Review of the facility policy and procedure titled Weights and Weight Loss issued on 4/1/2022 reads, Policy: It will be the practice of this facility to implement the following systems regarding weight documentation. Procedure . 4. Consistent weight loss noted during the admission weight process will be brought to the attention of the physician and/or RD [Registered Dietician] and responsible party. 5. Significant weight loss shall be addressed by the physician and/or RD through discussion with the resident and/or the resident representative for known preferences and desires and development and implementation of interventions to attempt to address the weight loss. 2.

Until the order is acknowledged by a nurse, it isn't seen on the MAR. I don't know why the nurse did not hang the IV fluids. All physician orders should be followed. It is a professional standard of practice to follow a physician order or get it clarified. The nurse should have hung the IV saline and documented if she didn't and why she didn't hang it. The order did say for AKI and it's important to get the fluids up and running. During an interview on 3/8/2023 at 3:14 PM, Staff G, LPN, stated, I was the nurse taking care of her [Resident #13] on the 6th when the order was written. Well, I was not aware that the nurse practitioner wrote an order. Apparently the order was written about 3:15 PM, that is at shift change. The nurse practitioner did not tell me about the order for IV fluids, and it was a very busy evening, and I did not check her pending orders during the shift. I should have. If a patient has acute kidney injury and needs IV fluids, why shouldn't the practitioner have called me and let me know about the new orders. I should have checked my orders, but I had many residents to look after and give meds to, answer lights and do treatments. I just forgot to do it. I know that I should have checked the orders, but many times we have orders and don't know anything about them. I would have made sure that the IV fluids were hung if I knew.
