Level of Harm - Minimal harm
or potential for actual harm
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
observations, interviews, and resident record review, it was determined the facility failed to ensure
reasonable accommodations were made to ensure one resident (#41) of six residents reviewed was able to
get up into a wheelchair instead of remaining bedbound due to the facility not providing an appropriate
wheelchair.
Residents Affected - Few
Findings included:
During an observation and interview conducted on 4/24/2023 at 11:55 a.m. Resident #41 said, I have not
been able to get out of this bed for about eight months, I don't have a wheelchair that fits. I am unable to get
into the one they have provided; it is way too small.
During an interview with Resident #41 on 4/26/2023 at 9:51 a.m., the Resident verbalized how she really
would like to get up out of bed. She is unable to because the wheelchair the facility has provided is too
small. Resident #41 stated she has told several staff members: nurses, someone from the office and
therapy. Resident #41 stated it is affecting her functioning and she is unable to perform activities she
enjoys. Resident #41 expressed she could no longer draw as she once did, due to the strength in her arms.
Resident #41 stated, I have tremors and spasms especially in my right arm. This makes my hand run
across the page and ruin the picture.
During an interview on 4/26/2023 at 9:54 a.m. Staff B, Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA) stated Resident
#41 refuses to get up because the chair hurts her. Staff B, CNA stated Everyone knows.
During an interview on 4/26/2023 at 12:29 p.m., Staff A, Registered Nurse (RN) stated the resident has had
a decline due to not being able to get up into the wheelchair. I have told everyone, Unit Manager (second
floor), Director of Nursing and therapy, the resident is declining without getting up into a wheelchair.
Resident #41 is an artist and is unable to do activities that bring her happiness, as with the decrease in use
of her arms, she now has tremors and shaking in them. She can hardly sit up in bed. I have even tried with
the CNAs myself to transfer Resident #41 into the chair. The chair is just too small. Resident #41 would get
up if she had an appropriate chair. I have been told the resident cannot have one due to her insurance. I
have even thought of going and looking for one myself, I just haven't had the time. I have gone out and
bought her the special drawing paper she needed to complete the drawing she enjoys; Unfortunately, she
cannot use it, so sad.
An interview was conducted on 4/26/2023 at 3:39 p.m., with the Director of Rehabilitation (DOR) who
stated Resident #41 was last on case load the end of September 2022. Resident #41 was discharged to

within 4 days, and documented on the ticket system, if it is conveyed to kitchen that someone does not
want an item they will then break up the order to reflect the change. Staff D reported that she sees
residents at least weekly for orders, and that CNA's will come to the kitchen and notify them of the resident
not wanting a certain item. She reported that they encourage the CNA's to verbalize when the resident
does not want an item. She reported that menus are posted on the floors and on channel 2 of the
television. The RD reported that if a resident verbalizes a dislike that the aides/nursing should bring that
information to the kitchen.
Based on observations, record reviews, and interviews the facility failed to ensure three (#196, #54, #349)
out of 42 sampled residents were assessed for food and drink preferences, received meals as indicated on
menu, and five (#21, #23, #52, #97,and #198) of five residents were offered to have meals in the facility's
first floor dining room.

right arm lower forearm brace as the breakfast tray was delivered. The resident stated that today was the
first time that coffee had been offered (not on tray) by the Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA). The
observation of the residents' tray indicated a covered glass of orange juice that was 1/2 full, a carton of 2%
milk (which staff did not offer to open). The resident stated that it did not matter if the orange juice was only
half full because resident did not drink orange juice due to having acid reflux and did not drink milk either
but did get the drinks every day. A review of Resident #196's diet ticket indicated that the resident was to
receive a regular diet with regular consistency and no restrictions. The resident reported that no one had
asked her about food or drink preferences. The diet slip identified that the resident was to receive two (2)
strips of bacon, a cheese omelet, a bowl of cream of wheat and a buttered slice of toast. The tray contained
a piece of a lightly toasted piece of bread, the cheese omelet, and one strip of lightly cooked piece of
bacon. The resident stated today was the first time of not getting scrambled eggs for breakfast.
On 4/26/23 at 1:00 p.m., Resident #196's lunch tray contained a small side salad, a scoop of Chili Mac,
slice of cornbread and no drink on the lunch tray. The resident asked why the facility was serving Chili Mac
because it was spicy. The resident stated that no one had gone over the menu, it's a surprise till you open it
up, demonstrating to remove the plate cover. The resident denied that a staff member had come in with
possibly a handheld tablet or anything to review menus. The resident reported being told just the other day
that a side menu was available and it was possible to get a sandwich if not wanting what was served.

According to webmd.com
(https://www.webmd.com/vitamins/ai/ingredientmono-332/saccharomyces-boulardii), Saccharomyces
boulardii is a probiotic yeast, whereas Acidophilus (Lactobacillus acidophilus) is a bacteria
(https://www.webmd.com/vitamins/ai/ingredientmono-790/lactobacillus-acidophilus). The website indicated,
for both probiotic's, to not confuse either S. boulardii and L. acidophilus with other probiotic's, they are not
the same.
The manufacturer instructed users of a Levemir Flexpen (https://www.novomedlink.com), to give an airshot
before each injection. The instructions identified that Before each injection, prime your pen by performing
an airshot. The literature instructed users to turn the dose selector to 2 units, hold the FlexPen with the
needle pointing up, tap the cartridge a few times to make any air bubbles to collect at the tip, while keeping
the needle pointing upwards to press the push button all the way, and the dose selector returns to zero (0).
A drop of insulin should be observed at the needle tip and if not to change the needle and repeat the
procedure.

On 4/25/23 at 5:27 p.m., Staff Member I stated that the insulin pens did not have to be primed, was
educated earlier today on priming insulin pens and don't have to prime the new ones.
According to the manufacturer of Insulin Lispro, (https://www.lillyinsulinlispro.com/#) users should Prime
before each injection. The literature indicated that Priming your pen means removing the air from the
needle and cartridge that may collect during normal use and ensures that the pen is working correctly. If
you do not prime before each injection, yo may get too much or too little insulin. The manufacturer
instructed how to prime the pen was to turn the dose knob to select 2 units, hold your pen with the needle
pointing up, tap the cartridge to collect air bubbles at the top, while continue holding pen with needle
pointing up push the dose knob until it stops and 0 is seen in the dose window. Hold the dose knob in and
count for 5 seconds slowly, insulin should be seen at the tip of the needle. The instructions indicate that if
insulin is not seen at the tip repeat the steps no more than 4 times, if insulin is still not seen change the
needle and repeat the priming steps.
