F 0695 Provide safe and appropriate respiratory care for a resident when needed. 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 ensure oxygen (O2) therapy was administered as per physician orders for 2 of 2 residents reviewed for oxygen therapy of a total sample of 40 residents, (#327, #90 ). Residents Affected - Few Findings: 1. Resident #327 was admitted to the facility on [DATE] with diagnoses to include heart failure, atrial fibrillation, cardiomyopathy, and shortness of breath. The Minimum Data Set (MDS) 5-day assessment with Assessment Reference Date (ARD) dated 7/25/24 revealed a Brief Interview for Mental Status, (BIMS) of 15 which indicated the resident was cognitively intact. The assessment noted the resident received oxygen. Review of the resident's clinical record noted physician orders dated 7/20/24 for continuous oxygen at 2 liters per minute. Observations on 7/22/24 at 9:52 AM and 12:53 PM revealed the oxygen concentrator was set at 4.5 liters per minute. On 7/22/24 at 1:15 PM, Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) observed resident #327 oxygen concentrator and acknowledged it was set at 4.5 liters per minute. She stated the resident's oxygen should have been at 2 liters. She said she usually checked the oxygen rate when she was in the room but was running behind today and could not explain who set the oxygen at 4.5 liters. She acknowledged the resident could not have increased the rate because she could not reach the concentrator. On 7/22/24 at 1:22 PM, the Unit Manager (UM) confirmed that resident #327 should have been on 2 liters of oxygen. She said she expected nurses to check the liter flow when they were in the resident rooms. The UM stated the nurse should also verify the physician order in the clinical record to ensure it is the correct liter flow. On 7/25/24 at 2:50 PM, the Director of Nursing stated her expectation was that the nurse would know the resident was on oxygen and know the liter flow of oxygen the resident should receive. She stated she also expected the nurse to check the oxygen liter flow when in the room to ensure the oxygen was at the correct rate. 2. On 7/22/24 at 9:40 AM, resident #90 was lying in bed with the head of bed slightly elevated. There was an oxygen concentrator machine in the resident's room with bag attached containing oxygen tubing dated 7/19/24. The resident did not have nasal canula on and the oxygen was not being used. On 7/23/24 at 10:45 AM, the oxygen concentrator remained in the resident's room. The oxygen was not being administered. Review of the Medication Review Report showed oxygen was ordered on 7/10/24 at 2-4 liters per minute via nasal cannula continuous every shift. On 7/23/24 at 12:47 PM, LPN A stated the oxygen order dated 7/9/24 was for 2-4 liters per minute (continued on next page) FORM CMS-2567 (02/99) Previous Versions Obsolete Event ID: Facility ID: 106029 If continuation sheet Page 4 of 10 Printed: 05/28/2026 Form Approved OMB No. 0938-0391 Department of Health & Human Services Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services STATEMENT OF DEFICIENCIES AND PLAN OF CORRECTION (X1) PROVIDER/SUPPLIER/CLIA IDENTIFICATION NUMBER: (X2) MULTIPLE CONSTRUCTION 106029 B.

F 0695 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Few continuously. She said the oxygen was started the other day when the resident did not look well and was leaning to one side. She added, the resident's oxygen saturation level measured 94 today. She explained that with the current oxygen saturation level, she would set the oxygen flow rate at 2 liters/minute. LPN A also noted the resident was known to pull the nasal cannula out. Upon entering the resident's room, the resident was observed leaning to one side. The oxygen concentrator was turned off and the nasal canula was not connected to the concentrator. LPN A did not explain why the resident's oxygen was not being administered or why the concentrator and the oxygen tubing was not attached. On 7/23/24, review of the physician orders noted the previous oxygen order was discontinued after it was brought to the facility's attention. A new physician order for oxygen noted oxygen at 2 liters as needed (PRN). On 7/24/24 at 11:29 AM, Registered Nurse (RN) D stated she was the RN for the resident on Monday 7/22/24. She acknowledged the resident did not receive oxygen as per physician orders on 7/22/24. She explained she was told the resident's oxygen sats were up, so oxygen was not needed. The electronic Medication Administration Record (MAR) indicated the same order for oxygen, 2-4 liters via nasal cannula continuously with start date of 7/10/24 and discontinued date of 7/23/24 at 2:34 PM. It also indicated oxygen was signed off as provided to this resident by nursing staff for all shifts from 7/10/24 through when it was discontinued on 7/23/24. The facility's Oxygen Therapy policy noted oxygen therapy must be reviewed by the nurse on a regular basis, the nurse will organize the oxygen therapy as ordered by the physician, and will document the time the oxygen started, the flow rate, and the resident's response to the oxygen therapy.

F 0698 Provide safe, appropriate dialysis care/services for a resident who requires such services. 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 maintain adequate communication with the dialysis center and ensure post-dialysis assessments were completed for 1 of 4 residents reviewed for dialysis of a total sample of 40 residents, (#56). Residents Affected - Some Findings: Review of the medical record revealed resident #56 was originally admitted to the facility on [DATE] and re-admitted on [DATE]. His diagnoses included end-stage renal disease (ESRD) with dependence on dialysis, and type 2 diabetes. Review of the Minimum Data Set (MDS) Quarterly assessment with Assessment Reference Date (ARD) of 6/01/24 revealed resident #56's Brief Interview for Mental Status (BIMS) score was 15 out of 15 which indicated intact cognition. The assessment showed the resident had no behavioral symptoms and did not reject evaluation or care that was necessary to achieve his goals for health and well-being. The assessment revealed resident #56 required dialysis. Review of the medical record showed resident #56 received dialysis treatments every Monday, Wednesday and Friday. Review of the Dialysis Communication Record showed 3 sections, the first and third were to be completed by the facility's nurses and the middle section was to be completed by the dialysis center. There were multiple Dialysis Communication forms missing from January to June 2024. Review of 8 forms provided for January showed 1 of 8 forms contained no documentation from the dialysis center and 4 of 8 forms had incomplete documentation in the facility sections. Review of communication forms for February 2024 showed 2 forms had no documentation from dialysis on either form and 1 of 2 forms were missing documentation from the facility. March 2024 forms noted 1 of 2 forms were missing dialysis documentation and both forms had incomplete documentation from the facility. There were 5 forms provided for April 2024 and 4 of 5 forms had no documentation from dialysis and all 5 forms were missing documentation from the facility. There were 8 forms for May 2024 and 6 of 8 forms had no documentation from the dialysis center and 5 of 8 forms were missing documentation from the facility. June 2024 showed 4 forms and 2 of 4 forms had no dialysis documentation and 2 of 4 forms were missing documentation from the facility. Of the 29 forms reviewed for a 5-month period, only 8 forms had all three areas completed. Review of the progress notes did not reveal any contact made with the dialysis center. On 07/25/24 at 11:06 AM, Licensed Practical Nurse A explained the facility sent a communication form with the resident to dialysis. She said the facility nurse completed the top portion of the form prior to the resident leaving the facility and the dialysis center completed the middle portion of the form. She said the facility nurse would complete the bottom portion of the form when the resident returned from dialysis. She stated if the dialysis staff did not complete the form, the facility nurse was to send the form back to the dialysis center for completion. On 7/25/24 at 11:48 AM, the 100 hall Unit Manager (UM) stated if the communication record was returned with incomplete information, the dialysis center should be called and the form should be sent back. The UM reviewed several of the communication records and acknowledged they were not complete. She stated she had emailed the dialysis center multiple times regarding the incomplete communication records but did not get a response to her emails. The UM explained when she called the dialysis center, she spoke to a nurse but the communication forms continued to come back with no documentation.

F 0756 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Some Ensure a licensed pharmacist perform a monthly drug regimen review, including the medical chart, following irregularity reporting guidelines in developed policies and procedures. **NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on record review, and interview, the facility failed to identify and report a medication for hypotension (low blood pressure) was given when it should have been held 110 times over a 4-month period for 1 of 5 residents reviewed for unnecessary medications, (#38). Findings: Review of the medical record revealed resident #38 was admitted to the facility on [DATE] and then readmitted from acute care hospital on 6/4/23. The resident had diagnoses that included hypotension (low blood pressure), chronic hepatic failure, diabetes mellitus type 2, cirrhosis of the liver, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, hypertension (high blood pressure) and portal hypertension. Review of resident #38's physician order to start on 4/2/24 directed nurses to administer Midodrine (medication to treat low blood pressure) 10 milligrams by mouth every 8 hours for hypotension, give for systolic blood pressure (SBP) less than 110 millimeters of mercury (mmhg). The resident's care plan revised on 5/24/24 for hypotension with the goal that she would be free of signs and symptoms of hypotension and intervention included to give medications as ordered. Review of the Consultant Pharmacist Medication Regimen Reviews showed the pharmacist recommended to order specific parameters for Midodrine on 3/30/24, and the physician gave orders to hold for SBP less than 110 mmhg. Review of the medication administration records (MARs) showed the nurses failed to hold the medication 110 times from 4/3/24 to 7/24/23 and the failed to identify nurses were not following parameter orders for 4 months until brought to their attention at time of survey. On 7/24/24 at 2:29 PM, the assigned day Registered Nurse (RN) D said she had just taken resident #38's BP which was 118/73 mmhg and administered the 2 PM dose of Midodrine. The RN acknowledged that she made errors by giving medication when it should have been held per parameter orders 7 times in July, 7 times in June, 5 times in May and 6 times in April. RN D said she thought she made an error because usually the parameter to hold Midodrine is for SBP less than 130 mmhg. The RN then pulled the pill card on her medication cart that read, hold if BP less than 110. The RN verified that she knew that Midodrine was used to help raise BP and did not know why she made errors. On 7/24/24 at 2:45 PM, the Director of Nursing (DON) reviewed resident #38's MARs from April to July and validated that multiple nurses over 2 shifts did not hold Midodrine as ordered, and noted the pharmacist should have picked up on the errors as during their monthly review. The DON validated the pharmacist had not reported any discrepancies to date regarding the nurses administering Midodrine and not holding per physician ordered parameters. On 7/25/24 at 06:35 AM, a telephone interview was conducted with night Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) C. Review of the MAR showed this nurse had given Midodrine when it should have been held 10 times in July, 7 times in June, 7 times in May and although she only worked 1 week in April she made 3 errors. The LPN was not aware Midodrine was used to raise BP. She noted, I should have looked it up. On 7/25/24 at 7:14 AM, a telephone interview was conducted with night LPN B who said she had only worked on the unit that resident #38 resides 2-3 times per month as she normally worked on other side of the facility.

F 0756 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Some resident when her SBP was over 110 mmhg three times in July, twice in June and one time in April. LPN B said she knew if the BP was low that Midodrine will help raise it and thought the parameter to hold medication was for SBP under 120 mmhg and did not realize the order was for 110 mmhg. On 7/25/24 at approximately 10 AM, an interview was conducted with day LPN A who was resident #38's usual day nurse. She said, she did not realize that on 7/5/24 at 10 PM, she gave Midodrine when the resident's BP was 124/84 and on 6/21/22 at 2 PM, when the BP was 119/55. She acknowledges not following physician parameter orders and said she would be more careful as she knew the medication was used to raise BP. On 7/25/24 at 10:35 AM, the Consultant pharmacist explained, Midodrine is typically given to raise blood pressure when needed. She explained she did monthly reviews of the residents MARs as well as random audits and did not identify the nursing staff were not giving Midodrine to resident #38 per parameter orders from April to July 2024. She agreed the nurses should look up medications they were not familiar with to find out the indication and possible side effects. The Consultant added, she needed to do some education with nursing staff as well as observe them do medication administration pass. She noted the potential reaction or adverse effect of not giving Midodrine as ordered was high blood pressure and increased risk of stroke. The facility policy for Administering Medications revised April 2019, read Medications are administered in a safe and timely manner, and as prescribed . Each nurses' station has a current Physician's Desk Reference [PDR] and or other medication reference .

Based on observation, and interview, the facility failed to ensure dishes were handled in a manner to prevent bacterial growth, specifically that cups, bowls, pellet bases, and lids were air dried between use. Residents Affected - Some FINDINGS: On 7/22/24 at 2:32 PM, during tour of the kitchen, observations were made of plastic pellet bases wet nesting and a row above the dish machine counter with cups and bowls inverted on trays that would not allow to completely air dry. At this time, Dietary Aide I stated the bases were kept there to dry and were stacked on top of each other next to the tray line for service. When one of the base was removed from the other, the base was noted to be wet. Upon observing the wet-nested dishes, the Dietary Manager stated he needed liners between dishes and trays and needed to have a different method to store bases to prevent wet-nesting. He stated it was important to have air flow between dishes and trays and between the bases so bacteria would not grow.
