F 0687 Provide appropriate foot care. 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 continued podiatry services for 1 of 1 sampled resident (Resident #34). Residents Affected - Few The findings included: During an interview and observation on 12/19/22 at 10:40 AM, the toenails of Resident #34 were noted to be elongated, extending approximately half a centimeter past the end of his toes, and thickened. When asked if he was a diabetic, Resident #34 stated he was not. When asked if the staff cut his toenails, Resident #34 stated they did not and that a podiatrist cut them in the past. Review of the record revealed Resident #34 was admitted to the facility on [DATE]. Review of the current Minimum Data Set (MDS) assessment dated [DATE] documented Resident #34 had a Brief Interview for Mental Status (BIMS) score of 15, on a 0 to 15 scale, indicating the resident was cognitively intact. This MDS lacked any documented instances of the rejection of care, and revealed the resident needed the limited assistance of one person for personal hygiene. Further review of the record revealed a podiatry visit dated 04/19/22. This progress note documented the resident's toenails at that time were thickened, yellowed, and causing pain. This note also documented, Care of this patient by a non-skilled professional may be hazardous to the patient's health. Patient meets systemic diagnostic requirements, confirmed by the attending PCP (personal care physician), for routine foot care to prevent risks when performed by a nonprofessional. I have recommended foot care on a periodic 10-12 week basis ongoing. This would indicate Resident #34 would have needed additional podiatry services by 07/12/22. Review of the current and discontinued orders and social service notes from April 2022 lacked any mention of podiatry services. During an interview on 12/22/22 at 9:00 AM, the Social Services Director (SSD) explained she started at the facility on 10/31/22. The SSD was made aware of the 04/19/22 podiatry progress note and stated she would add Resident #34 to the podiatry list.

F 0688 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Few Provide appropriate care for a resident to maintain and/or improve range of motion (ROM), limited ROM and/or mobility, unless a decline is for a medical reason. **NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on interview and record review, the facility failed to ensure continued range of motion (ROM) services for 1 of 1 sample resident (Resident #3). The findings included: During an interview on 12/19/22 at 1:49 PM, the adult family member of Resident #3 voiced concern that the facility was no longer providing range of motion services to the resident. When asked if she knows why the services were not being provided, the family member stated she was unsure. Review of the record revealed Resident #3 was admitted to the facility on [DATE]. Review of the current Minimum Data Set (MDS) assessment dated [DATE] documented Resident #3 had functional limited range of motion to all four extremities. This MDS also documented the resident was not receiving therapy, restorative, or range of motion services. Review of the current orders lacked any orders for range of motion or restorative services. Review of the discontinued order dated 07/08/21 documented, Resident graduated from program will reevaluate in 1 month under the discontinued note in the order as of 11/02/21. Further review of the orders revealed Resident #3 had been receiving range of motion services via their restorative program since at least 12/16/20. Review of the current care plan initiated 09/03/20 and revised on 05/20/21 documented Resident #3 had limited physical mobility and ADL (activities of daily living) deficits related to multiple comorbidities including traumatic brain injury and contractures. One of the interventions was for staff to place rolled washcloths in both hands. During an interview on 12/21/22 at 2:24 PM, Staff H, Restorative Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA) confirmed she provides range of motion services to residents for maintenance. When asked about Resident #3, Staff H confirmed she had seen her in the past for ROM services, but was unsure why she was not currently seeing the resident. During an interview on 12/21/22 at 3:06 PM, the Director of Rehab (DOR) services confirmed they do quarterly therapy screens for the long-term residents. When asked about Resident #3 in regard to range of motion, the DOR stated he thought the resident was still on restorative services for ROM. During an interview on 12/21/22 at 3:07 PM, the Restorative Nurse stated she was not here in November 2021 when the restorative services were discontinued for Resident #3. The Restorative Nurse was unsure if Resident #3 was reevaluated in one month as per the discontinued order, or the reason why the resident was no longer on restorative services. During a subsequent interview and observation on 12/21/22 at 4:27 PM, the Restorative Nurse stated they were unable to locate the one-month reevaluations. The DOR joined the interview, again confirming he thought Resident #3 was on the restorative services, and confirmed the documented intervention for the towel palm rolls. Upon observation of Resident #3 at that time, the hand rolls were not in place. The DOR suggested reestablishing ROM services for Resident #3 to maintain her current level of mobility.

Review of the resident's MDS (Minimum Data Set) Admission/Medicare 5 day, dated 05/12/22, documented the resident has a BIMS (Brief Interview for Mental Status) of 8, indicating his cognition is mildly impaired. For transfers, it was documented he is totally dependent on 2-person, extensive assistance of 2-person for Bed Mobility, Dressing, Toileting, and Personal Hygiene. Review of the resident's Care Plans documented he is at risk for falls. Further review of Progress Notes, dated 12/14/22 at 3:24 PM by Staff K, LPN (Licensed Practical Nurse), documented: the aide [CNA] notified me [LPN] that a patient was on the floor. Resident assessed for injuries. Resident denied hitting his head. Gash found on left lower extremity. Physician notified and orders given to send patient to ER [Emergency Room].

F 0689 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm During an interview on 12/21/22 at 1:05 PM with Staff L, CNA, revealed, 'I was assisting another resident and when I came out of the room I heard a loud boom and then heard a CNA call for help, she was in room [XX]. The Hoyer lift and the resident were by the door, she was trying to lift him and I told her to take the hooks out of the Hoyer so we can lift the Hoyer up. I went and got the nurse. There was blood on the floor. When we do a Hoyer we use 2 people she only used herself no one else.' Residents Affected - Few During an interview on 12/21/22 at 1:10 PM with Staff A, CNA, stated I was supposed to use two-person for the Hoyer but there was no one else to help me. I got him dressed and put the Hoyer pad under him, he was lifted up and the chair underneath him, one of the wheels was stuck under the bed and it tilted over. She said the bed moved because it does not lock. I now know not to do it by myself. I have been here since [DATE]. They did retraining with me, they were pretty strict with me about using two people but I now know why. I had him the other day and did a two person transfer but really need three. During an interview on 12/21/22 at 1:17 PM with the Rehabilitation (Rehab) Director, he was asked how Resident#215 was supposed to be transferred. He stated, by a Hoyer lift, we have determined he is a Hoyer lift but for therapy purposes he is transferred by two persons standing up. He is toe-touch for weight bearing on left lower extremity, that is the side he had the fracture. During an interview on 12/22/22 at 2:46 PM with Staff B, CNA, Staff B stated, [Resident #215] 'will try his hardest to help but he is a 2-person assist to get him up in chair, 2-people for pivot, and the family is uncomfortable with Hoyer so we try not to use it. I did notice his bed moving, even when it is locked it moved. The first time was this past weekend. I think I told the nurse or CNA on hallway. I did not put it in Tells [communication system for maintenance], I should have but didn't. He is a 2-person for everything.'
