Honor the resident's right to request, refuse, and/or discontinue treatment, to participate in or refuse to
participate in experimental research, and to formulate an advance directive.
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
review of the facility policy, interviews and record review, the facility failed to ensure advanced directives
were implemented in a timely manner and failed to ensure the residents' wishes were honored related to
full code status for one resident (#5) of three residents sampled. On [DATE] at 1:09 a.m., Staff B, Licensed
Practical Nurse (LPN) obtained Resident #5's oxygen saturation level (Sp02) which was 84% with
supplemental oxygen by nasal cannula. According to emedicinehealth oxygen saturation levels below 95%
are considered abnormal, and the brain may be affected when SpO2 levels drop below 80 to 85 percent.
https://www.emedicinehealth.com/what_is_a_good_oxygen_rate_by_age/article_em.htm retrieved on
[DATE]. Staff B, LPN did not notify the medical provider or document interventions regarding the change in
condition. At approximately 3:15 a.m., Staff B, LPN found Resident #5 pulseless and not breathing. The
staff member summoned Staff I, Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA) and Staff C, LPN to the resident's room.
Staff C, LPN assessed Resident #5 and confirmed the resident did not have a pulse or respirations. Staff B,
LPN and Staff I, LPN reviewed Resident #5's electronic health record (EHR) for resuscitation orders and
the paper chart for a Do Not Resuscitate (DNR) form. Staff C, LPN stated Resident #5 had an order for full
code and confirmed there was no DNR form in the chart. Staff B, LPN reviewed the full code order and
failed to act on it. Staff B, LPN said he was confused because on [DATE], when Resident #5 was
readmitted from the hospital, the Medical Certification for Medicaid Long-Term Care Services and Patient
Transfer Form Agency for Healthcare Administration (AHCA) form, 3008), documented DNR status for the
resident. Staff B, LPN called the administration, hospice, and Resident #5's medical team, which delayed
chest compressions and ventilation for approximately 45-60 minutes. This failure created a situation in
which Resident #5's wishes for cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) were not honored, resulting in death,
which resulted in the determination of Immediate Jeopardy on [DATE]. The findings of Immediate Jeopardy
were determined to be removed on [DATE] and the severity and scope was reduced to a D after verification
of removal of immediacy of harm.Findings included: A review of Resident #5's admission record showed an
initial admission date of [DATE], and a readmission of [DATE], with diagnoses including metabolic
encephalopathy, multiple sclerosis, sepsis, dysphagia, acute respiratory failure with hypoxia, diabetes type
2, pneumonia, acute kidney failure, myocardial infarct, and hypertension. A review of Resident #5's order
summary report showed, as of [DATE], Full Code order, dated [DATE]. A review of Resident #5's annual
minimum data set (MDS), dated [DATE], section C- cognitive pattern, showed a brief interview for mental
status (BIMS) score of 15, indicating cognitively intact. Section B- hearing, speech, and vision shows the
resident can express ideas and wants. Section Q- participation in assessment and goal setting showed
active participation in the assessment process. A review of Resident #5's care plan showed a focus area of
advanced directive full code, initiated on [DATE], created by the Social Worker. The intervention for this care

physician orders and the resident’s advance directives.
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
review of the facility policy, interviews and record review, the facility failed to ensure Cardiopulmonary
Resuscitation (CPR), was implemented in a timely manner and failed to ensure the residents' wishes were
honored related to full code status for one resident (#5) of three residents sampled. Resident #5 had active
physician orders for full code status and had expressed wishes to be resuscitated. On [DATE] at 1:09 a.m.,
Staff B, Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) obtained Resident #5's oxygen saturation level (Sp02) which was
84% with supplemental oxygen by nasal cannula. According to emedicinehealth oxygen saturation levels
below 95% are considered abnormal, and the brain may be affected when SpO2 levels drop below 80 to 85
percent. https://www.emedicinehealth.com/what_is_a_good_oxygen_rate_by_age/article_em.htm retrieved

LPN and Staff I, LPN reviewed Resident #5's electronic health record (EHR) for resuscitation orders and
the paper chart for a Do Not Resuscitate (DNR) form. Staff C, LPN stated Resident #5 had an order for full
code and confirmed there was no DNR form in the chart. Staff B, LPN reviewed the full code order and
failed to act on it. Staff B, LPN said he was confused because on [DATE], when Resident #5 was
readmitted from the hospital, the Medical Certification for Medicaid Long-Term Care Services and Patient
Transfer Form Agency for Healthcare Administration (AHCA) form, 3008), documented DNR status for the
resident. Staff B, LPN called the administration, hospice, and Resident #5's medical team, which delayed
chest compressions and ventilation for approximately 45-60 minutes. This failure created a situation in
which Resident #5's wishes for CPR were not honored, resulting in death, which resulted in the
determination of Immediate Jeopardy on [DATE]. The findings of Immediate Jeopardy were determined to
be removed on [DATE] and the severity and scope was reduced to a D after verification of removal of
immediacy of harm.Findings included: A review of Resident #5's admission record showed an initial
admission date of [DATE], and a readmission of [DATE], with diagnoses including metabolic
encephalopathy, multiple sclerosis, sepsis, dysphagia, acute respiratory failure with hypoxia, diabetes type
2, pneumonia, acute kidney failure, myocardial infarct, and hypertension. A review of Resident #5's order

Ensure that nurses and nurse aides have the appropriate competencies to care for every resident in a way
that maximizes each resident's well being.
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
record review, interviews, and facility documentation and policy review, the facility failed to ensure nursing
staff were competent in identifying resident's code status, providing timely Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation
(CPR) and responding to a Change in Condition (CIC) for one resident (#5) out of three residents sampled.
On [DATE] at 1:09 a.m., Staff B, Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) obtained Resident #5's oxygen saturation
level (Sp02) which was 84% with supplemental oxygen by nasal cannula. According to emedicinehealth
oxygen saturation levels below 95% are considered abnormal, and the brain may be affected when SpO2
levels drop below 80 to 85 percent.
https://www.emedicinehealth.com/what_is_a_good_oxygen_rate_by_age/article_em.htm retrieved on
[DATE]. Staff B, LPN did not notify the medical provider or document interventions regarding the change in
condition. At approximately 3:15 a.m., Staff B, LPN found Resident #5 pulseless and not breathing. The
staff member summoned Staff I, Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA) and Staff C, LPN to the resident's room.
Staff C, LPN assessed Resident #5 and confirmed the resident did not have a pulse or respirations. Staff B,
LPN and Staff I, LPN reviewed Resident #5's electronic health record (EHR) for resuscitation orders and
the paper chart for a Do Not Resuscitate (DNR) form. Staff C, LPN told Staff B, LPN that Resident #5 had
an order for full code and a there was no DNR form in the chart. Staff B, LPN reviewed the full code order
and failed to act on it. Staff B, LPN said he was confused because on [DATE], when Resident #5 was
readmitted from the hospital, the Medical Certification for Medicaid Long-Term Care Services and Patient
Transfer Form Agency for Healthcare Administration (AHCA) form, 3008, documented DNR status for the
resident. Staff B, LPN called the Director of Nursing (DON), Staff H, LPN/Unit Manager (UM), paged
hospice, and Resident #5's medical team which delayed chest compressions and ventilation for 45-60
minutes. This failure created a situation in which Resident #5's wishes for CPR were not honored, and
resulted in death, and resulted in the determination of Immediate Jeopardy on [DATE]. The findings of
Immediate Jeopardy were determined to be removed on [DATE] and the severity and scope was reduced to
a D after verification of removal of immediacy of harm.Findings included: A review of Resident #5's
admission record showed an initial admission date of [DATE], and a readmission of [DATE], with diagnoses
including metabolic encephalopathy, multiple sclerosis, sepsis, dysphagia, acute respiratory failure with
hypoxia, diabetes type 2, pneumonia, acute kidney failure, myocardial infarct, and hypertension. A review of
Resident #5's order summary report showed the following:- As of [DATE] Full Code order, dated [DATE].Pulse oximetry (ox) every shift for monitoring, dated [DATE].- Respiratory: Oxygen-via Nasal Canula (NC)
continuous every shift for (oxygen) 02 dated [DATE].A review of Resident #5's care plan showed a focus
area of advanced directive full code, initiated on [DATE], created by the Social Worker. The intervention for
this care plan focus is to, Discuss [Resident #5's] advanced directives with his or her representative as
needed. A review of Resident #5's Treatment Administration Record (TAR), dated [DATE], showed the pulse
ox reading was documented for two out of five opportunities.A review of Resident #5's annual minimum
data set (MDS), dated [DATE], section C-cognitive pattern, showed a brief interview for mental status
(BIMS) score of 15, indicating cognitively intact. Section B- hearing, speech, and vision shows the resident
can express ideas and wants. Section Q- participation in assessment and goal setting showed active
participation in the assessment process. A review of Resident #5's progress notes showed the following:On [DATE] at 5:35 a.m. authored by Staff B, LPN showed, The resident was coded, resuscitation was
performed on her as protocol demands, 911 was called and all needed medical attention was given. At
