reported that it was her responsibility to notify the State Office of the Long-Term Care Ombudsman of
residents transfer or discharge and if she was being honest, up until you guys came I didn't know I was
supposed to. She admitted to beginning her tenure with the facility in July 2020. At 1:58 p.m. on 4/22/21, the
SSD stated the Nursing Home Transfer and Discharge Notices were her responsibility to complete if the
resident discharges to home and nursing was responsible for them if the resident was being transferred to
the hospital.
On 4/20/21 at 3:47 PM, Staff Member A, Registered Nurse (RN), explained the procedure to sending a
resident to the hospital. She stated she wrote an order to send to the hospital and sent a Situation,
Background, Assessment, and Review (SBAR). Staff Member C, Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN),

On 4/20/21 at 3:54 p.m., Staff Member B, RN was interviewed immediately following the transfer of one of
her assigned residents to the hospital. She stated they, used to do the form for Nursing Home Transfer and

On 4/22/21 at 12:42 PM, the Director of Nursing (DON) stated if a resident was being transferred to the
hospital the nurse was responsible for completing the Nursing Home Transfer and Discharge Notices.
1. Record review for Resident #33 revealed a SBAR dated 12/2/20 indicated Resident #33 began vomiting
and to feel weak and an order was received by the provider to send the resident to the emergency room
(ER). An admission observation, dated 12/5/20, identified Resident #33 returned to the facility at 12:04 a.m.
by an ambulance stretcher. A SBAR dated 12/31/20 indicated the facility received an order to send the

Notify the resident or the resident’s representative in writing how long the nursing home will hold the
resident’s bed in cases of transfer to a hospital or therapeutic leave.
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
staff interviews and record review the facility failed to provide a Bed Hold Policy prior to transfers for two
(#33 and #43) of three residents sampled for hospitalizations.
Findings included:
1. Record review for Resident #33 revealed a SBAR dated 12/2/20 indicated Resident #33 began vomiting
and feeling weak and an order was received by the provider to send the resident to the emergency room
(ER). An admission observation, dated 12/5/20, identified Resident #33 returned to the facility at 12:04 a.m.
by an ambulance stretcher. A SBAR dated 12/31/20 indicated the facility received an order to send the
resident to the ER due to fever and being non-responsive. On 1/3/21 at 10:54 p.m., an admission
observation was documented to indicate the resident returned to the facility.
A review of Resident #3's face sheet revealed Medicaid was pending as the primary payer, that the resident
was his own responsible party, and his spouse was the emergency contact.
A request was made, on 4/21/21, to provide all of Resident 33's Bed Hold notices. The facility provided the
Bed Hold notice for 10/24/20 (the date of admission) and one dated 12/4/20 (the day the resident returned
from the 12/2/20 hospitalization). The facility did not provide any further bed hold notices for Resident #33.
2. A review of Resident #43's Resident Census revealed he was admitted to the facility on [DATE] with
multiple readmissions following hospital leaves and discharges. A review of Resident #43's Face Sheet
revealed the payer source was Medicaid and a family member was listed as the emergency contact and
responsible party.
A review of the Bed Hold policies provided as requested for 2020, did not indicate Resident #43's
responsible party received a written bed hold policy at the time of or within 24 hours of the resident's
transfer on the following dates:
- 4/29/20 (discharge - return expected);
- 8/5/20 (discharge - return expected);
- 9/25/20 (discharge)
- 12/1/20 (discharge)
- 12/18/20 (discharge)
Continued review of Resident #43's electronic and physical clinical record revealed the resident transferred
to the hospital on 1/26/21 for low hemoglobin and returned on 2/3/21, and the resident transferred to the
hospital on 3/23/21 for chest pain and returned on 3/26/21. The clinical record was void of documentation to
indicate that the resident's representative received a Bed Hold Policy for the 1/26/21 and 3/23/21
hospitalizations.

the Staff Member H (UM) to look for an order for the CPAP then she left the office. Staff H confirmed that
the resident did not have an order for the use of the CPAP. The DON returned to the office and informed the
UM that the family had brought it (CPAP) in while the UM confirmed that the facility did need an order for
the CPAP.
During a review of the physician orders, on 4/21/21 at 4:17 p.m., a physician verbal order was identified for

A request was made for a policy regarding the storage of Respiratory Equipment, the facility provided a
policy, 2001 Med-Pass, Inc. (revised October 2018), Cleaning and Disinfection of Resident-Care Items and

contact with mucous membranes or non-intact skin (e.g., respiratory therapy equipment) were considered
semi-critical items and should be free from all microorganisms, allowing for a small number of bacterial
spores. The policy identified that semi-critical items will be sterilized/disinfected in a central processing
location and stored appropriately until use and that the items would be labeled with date and time it was
affixed to the equipment. The policy did not address the aspect of the daily storage of residents respiratory
equipment.

According to sleep association.org
(https://www.sleepassociation.org/sleep-apnea/cpap-treatment/how-to-clean-your-cpap/) to protect the user
and the machine it is important to care for a CPAP machine in a proper manner. The website described that
during use the exhaled air goes back into the mask, tubing, and machine contains moisture and that
microorganisms thrive on moisture and particulate manner. The association recommended to rinsing the
equipment with water for one minute then make sure standing water can drip out of the tubing.

On 4/20/21 at 7:31 a.m., an observation was made of a treatment cart outside of room [ROOM NUMBER].
Multiple staff were sitting at the nursing station and a Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA) entered a nearby
room then shut the door. At 7:37 a.m., the cart remained unlocked as the CNA left the area. At 7:42 a.m.,
Staff Member J, Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) confirmed the treatment cart should not be unlocked. The
staff member confirmed it was her cart however she had just arrived and was unaware it was unlocked.
At 4:24 p.m. on 4/20/21, an observation was made of a medication cart on the first floor, parked in the
corner outside of room [ROOM NUMBER], unlocked and unattended. Staff Member E, LPN, was observed
at other end of the hallway administering medications. At 4:28 p.m., the Nursing Home Administrator (NHA)
and Staff Member D, Unit Manager (UM), came out into the hallway from behind the nursing station. The
UM explained that Staff Member E was working both the unattended unlocked cart and the cart that he was
using at the end of the hallway. When asked if staff should keep carts unlocked and accessible to others

When Staff E was approached by this writer and the UM, he stated he was unaware the cart was unlocked
and hadn't been in the cart yet.
