**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
observation, interview, and record review, the facility failed to ensure intravenous medications were
administered by qualified staff.
Residents Affected - Few
This applies to 3 of 4 residents (R321, R324 and R426) reviewed for intravenous therapy in a sample of 31.
The findings include:
1. R426 Physician Order shows R426 has an order for Ceftriaxone Sodium injection solution reconstituted
2gm, intravenously one time a day until 10/28/24.
On 9/25/24 at 11:24 AM, V16 (Licensed Practical Nurse/LPN) administered R426's Ceftriaxone 2 gm
(grams) IV (intravenous) medication through right upper arm PICC (Peripherally Inserted Central Catheter)
line with the use of an IV pump.
On 9/25/24 at 12:11 PM, V16 said she routinely administers IV medications when assigned to residents
that are on IV medications.
On 9/26/24 at 11:56 AM, V2 (Director of Nursing/DON) said the LPN's are trained by the Registered Nurses
to administer medications via IV, including saline flushes and IV antibiotics.
2. R324 was admitted to the facility on [DATE] with diagnoses including an unstageable pressure ulcer of
the sacral region, Methicillin resistant staphylococcus Aureus infection, local infections of the skin and
subcutaneous tissue, and extended spectrum beta lactamase resistance.
R324's Social History Progress Note dated 9/23/24 showed R324 had moderately impaired cognition.
R324's POS (Physician Order Sheet) showed an order dated 9/24/24 for a new central/midline order and an
order for Ertapenem Sodium Injection Solution Reconstituted 1 gram.
R324's September 2024 MAR (Medication Administration Record) showed R324 was given Ertapenem by
V4 on September 24, 2024 and September 25, 2024.
On 9/25/24 at 10 AM, R324 was lying in bed and there was a PICC line in her right arm, with the dressing

also hung it on 9/24/24. V4 said she cleaned the hub of the PICC (Peripherally Inserted Central Catheter),
flushed it with 10 ML (Milliliters) of normal saline, checked for blood return, and hung her antibiotics. At 1:04
PM, V4 disconnected the IV tubing from the hub, wiped the hub with an alcohol wipe, and flushed 10 ML of
normal saline.
3. On 9/24/24 at 10:16 AM, R321 had a PICC line on the right arm and the dressing was clean, dry, and
intact. On 9/25/24 at 9:54 AM, R321 had a bag of Sodium Chloride IV fluids running at 80 ML/Hour. On
9/25/24 at 12:26 PM, V4 said she hung R321's Sodium Chloride maintenance fluids around 9:45 AM, and
signed it off in the MAR after she started it.
R321 was admitted to the facility on [DATE] with diagnoses including surgical aftercare following surgery on
the digestive system and adjustment and management of vascular access device.
R321's MDS (Minimum Data Sheet). dated 9/13/24, showed R321 was cognitively intact.
R321's POS (Physician Order Sheet) showed an order, dated 9/7/24, for central/midline care to the right
upper extremity, and an order for one liter of Sodium Chloride started on 9/25/24.
R321's September 2024 MAR (Medication Administration Record) showed R321 was given Sodium
Chloride by V4 on 9/25/24 at 10 AM.
On 9/26/24 at 1:55 PM, V24 (LPN) said she does not hang IV's because she is an , and they were not
allowed to. V24 said if she had a resident with an IV, she would ask an RN (Registered Nurse) to hang the
IV antibiotic.
The facility's document titled Job title: LPN states the LPN performs various patient test and administers
medications within the scope of practice and requires knowledge and skills related to medical/operational
systems to successfully maintain excellent nursing care.
The facility's Central Vascular Access Device (CVAD) Flushing and Locking policy (revised 6/1/21) states
the nurse is responsible and accountable for obtaining and maintaining competence with infusion therapy
within his or her scope of practice.
The National Library of Medicine article titled Nursing Advance Skills dated 2023 said a midline is a long
and deep peripheral catheter inserted in the veins of the upper arms, not a short intravenous catheter
inserted by a percutaneous venipuncture into a peripheral vein.
The Illinois Nurses Act (section 1330.240) amended on June 14, 2019, shows the scope of practice for
LPNs which does not include initiating the administration of IV medications through a midline (long
peripheral catheter) or central lines, nor reconstituting IV antibiotic medication solutions

Ensure that a nursing home area is free from accident hazards and provides adequate supervision to
prevent accidents.
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** 3. On
09/25/24 at 09:27 AM, R45 was sleeping in his bed. An unsecured portable oxygen tank was on the floor on
the left side of his dresser across his bed. It did not have any holder to prevent the tank from tipping over.
R45's portable oxygen tank was full. R45 shared the room with R26. R45's room was near R41 and R84's
room.
On 9/26/24 at 11:39 AM, V2 (DON-Director of Nursing) said, Portable tanks are stored in 2200 hallway of
the facility. Portable tanks are also stored and secured behind resident's wheelchair. Portable oxygen needs
to be secured for safety reasons and so they will not tip over and blow up.
The facility's Oxygen Management Policy and Procedure, dated 4/22/2015, documented the following: If the
resident uses oxygen, a portable container may be kept in the room. The portable oxygen container should
be protected from falling over when not in use.
Based on observation, interview, and record review, the facility failed to safely reposition a resident and
failed to secure oxygen tanks to prevent them from falling and combusting.
This applies to 9 of 9 residents (R14, R2, R32, R371, R379, R26, R41, R45, and R84) reviewed for
accidents and supervision in a sample of 31.
The findings include:
1. R14 was re-admitted to the facility on [DATE], with diagnoses including Parkinson's disease, dementia,
muscle weakness, altered mental status, osteoporosis, malignant melanoma of skin, and history of falling.
R14's MDS (Minimum Data Set) was not available, but the Significant Change Assessment completed on
9/20/24 showed R14 had moderate cognitive impairment. R14's GG Assessment, dated 9/23/24 showed
R14 was dependent on staff for all activities of daily living.
On 9/25/24 at 3:23 PM, V8 (CNA/Certified Nurse Assistant) came to R14's room to assist V13 (Wound
Care Nurse) and V14 (Wound Care Nurse) with fixing R14's bed height. R14 was lying in bed and the head
of the bed was elevated, and R14's upper body was leaning towards the left side. V8 fixed R14's bed, and
then came around to R14's right side, and pulled the resident by the upper arm, by placing her hands under
his armpit to straighten him out. V8 did not ask V13 or V14 to assist with repositioning R14.
On 98/25/24 at 3:51 PM, V8 (CNA) said she should not have pulled R14's arm, and should have asked for
assistance to reposition R14. V8 said she should have used the draw sheet and pillows to reposition R14.
V8 said the resident could have been bruised by the way he was pulled.
On 9/25/24 at 3:23 PM, V14, who had observed V8 reposition R14, said V8 should not have pulled R14 and
should have asked for assistance to help reposition him.
On 9/25/24 at 3:48 PM, V12 (CNA) said, To reposition a resident, you ask for help by using a draw sheet to
straighten them out. Staff should not pull the resident by their arms because the residents

On 9/25/24 at 3:55 PM, V9 (CNA) said if a resident was leaning, she would not pull the resident, but would
use other staff assistance and a draw sheet.
Residents Affected - Some
On 9/25/24 at 3:58 PM, V10 (OT/Occupational Therapist) said staff should use the draw sheet to prop the
resident up and V11 (PTA/Physical Therapist Assistant) said he would use the draw shift as well, and then
use pillows to prop them up. V10 and V11 said the staff should not be pulling the resident to straighten them
out.
On 9/25/24 at 4:06 PM, V2 (DON/Director of Nursing) said V8 should have repositioned R14 gently, with
two staff assistance because R14 required maximal assistance from staff. V2 also said the staff should
have used the draw sheet.
The facility's Repositioning Policy, revised May 2013, showed, Use two people and a draw sheet to avoid
shearing while turning or moving the resident up in bed.
2. The Electronic Medical Record (EMR) showed R32 had diagnoses of acute and chronic respiratory
failure with hypoxia, pulmonary fibrosis, asthma, and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.
R32's Order Summary Report, dated 9/26/2024, showed an order for oxygen via nasal cannula 4-8 LPM
(liters per minute).
On 9/24/2024 at 12:30 PM, there were two metal oxygen tanks at the entrance of R32's room. The oxygen
tanks were not secured in a holder to prevent them from tipping over.
On 9/25/2025 at AM 9:03 AM and 9/26/2024 at 9:00 AM, the oxygen tanks were still in the same location
and not secured in a holder.
On 9/26/204 at 9:05 AM, V18 (Respiratory Therapist/RT) said the oxygen tanks should not be placed
directly on the floor for safety. V18 said oxygen tanks should be placed on oxygen holders to prevent them
from tipping over.
On 9/24/2024, 9/25/2024, and 9/26/2024, R14's room was in close proximity to R379, R2, and R371's
rooms.

Provide appropriate care for residents who are continent or incontinent of bowel/bladder, appropriate
catheter care, and appropriate care to prevent urinary tract infections.
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
observation, interview, and record review, the facility failed to provide proper catheter care, secure catheter
tubing placement, and safely anchor the catheter drainage bag.
This applies to 2 of 3 (R374 and R45) reviewed for urinary catheters in a sample of 31.
The findings included:
1. The EMR (Electronic Medical Record) showed R374 had diagnoses of urinary retention and urinary tract
infection. R374's EMR continued to show she required the use of an indwelling catheter.
R374's MDS (Minimum Data Set), dated 9/2/2024, showed R374 was incontinent of bowel and dependent
on facility staff for toileting hygiene care.
On 9/25/2024 at 9:15 AM, V26 (Certified Nurse Assistant/CNA) was rendering toileting care to R374 after
having a bowel movement. V26 did not provide catheter care to R374. V26 then assisted R374 into her
wheelchair and placed her catheter drainage bag on the floor.
On 9/25/24 at 3:20 PM, R374 was in bed with her catheter's drainage bag loosely hanging over the right
side of her bed not secured. V19 (CNA) was asked to provide catheter care to R374. R374's catheter tubing
was located underneath her right thigh, and the tubing contained urine. V19 turned R374 on her left side,
which caused her catheter to pull to the right side. V19 proceeded to provide catheter care. V19 wiped
R374's catheter with multiple upstrokes towards R374's urethra, and then downstrokes using the same
wipe. V19 then said she would change R374's incontinence brief because it was stained with yellow fluid
drainage. Then when V19 was done rendering incontinence care, she left R374's catheter tubing placed
underneath her right thigh, and drainage bag unsecured hanging over the right side of the bed.
2. The EMR showed R45 had diagnoses of urinary retention, neuromuscular dysfunction of the bladder,
and urinary tract infections. R45's EMR continued to show he required the use of an indwelling catheter.
R45's MDS, dated [DATE], showed R45 was incontinent of bowel and dependent on facility staff for toileting
hygiene care.
On 9/25/2024 at 4:15 PM, R45 was in bed. V12 (CNA) was asked to provide catheter care to R45. V12
proceeded to render catheter care to R45. V12 used one wet washcloth to clean R45's catheter. V12
cleaned the catheter with multiple upward and downward strokes. Then V12 used the same washcloth to
clean R45's penis area and scrotum, and then again cleaned R45's catheter with the same washcloth.
On 9/26/2024 at 12:00 PM, V2 (Director of Nursing/DON) said catheter care should be provided every shift
and during incontinence care. V2 said catheters for male and female residents should be cleaned by wiping
them down, away from the urethra. V2 said catheter drainage bags should not be placed on the floor and
should be safely secured not hanging loosely. V2 continued to say catheter tubing should also be checked
to ensure they are not kinked, and residents should not be lying on top of the tubing to prevent obstruction.
V2 said she expects nursing staff to provide proper catheter care for

Ensure that feeding tubes are not used unless there is a medical reason and the resident agrees; and
provide appropriate care for a resident with a feeding tube.
Based on observation, interview, and record review, the facility failed to verify Percutaneous Endoscopic
Gastrostomy tube (PEG tube) placement prior to administering medications through PEG-tube and failed to
properly administer water flushes and medications via the G-tube.
This applies to 1 of 1 resident (R171) reviewed for medication administration via PEG-tube in a sample of
31.
The findings include:
R171's Physician Order shows the following orders: PEG tube three times a day flush 30 cc (ml) prior to
med admin, 10-15 cc between each med flush, 30 cc flush post med admin. Potassium Chloride Oral
Solution 20MEQ/15 ML (10%) give 15 ml via PEG tube one time a day for supplement.
On 9/25/24 at 9:00 AM, V15 (Registered Nurse/RN) went to R171's room to administer his morning
medications via the PEG-tube. V15 placed a stethoscope on R171's abdomen injected 30ml (milliliters) of
air using the piston syringe through the port. V15 used the stethoscope to auscultate to check for PEG-tube
placement. V15 failed to check the gastric content. V15 flushed R171's PEG-tube with 60 ml of water before
administering medications, flushed with 20 ml of water in between each medication, and flushed with
another 60 ml of water after administering medications. V15 failed to dilute liquid Potassium Chloride prior
to administering it via the PEG-tube.
On 9/26/24 at 10:15 AM, V2 (Director of Nursing/DON) said nurses check G-tube placement by pushing air
in PEG-tube and auscultating or by measuring the tube. V2 said the nurse should follow the physician order
for water flushes and liquid potassium should be diluted with 4 to 8 ounces of water to prevent
gastrointestinal irritation.
The facility's Manufacturer's Guideline for Potassium Chloride Oral Solution 20MEQ/15 ml states to dilute
prior to administration. Warnings and Precautions: Gastrointestinal Irritation dilute before use.
The facility's Administering Medications through an Enteral Tube (3/16/22) states to verify placement of
feeding tube.

Based on observation, interview, and record review, the facility failed to change residents' PICC
(Peripherally Inserted Central Catheter) dressings, measure arm circumferences, and external catheters as
ordered for intravenous catheters.
Residents Affected - Few
This applies to 2 of 4 residents (R374 and R424) reviewed for intravenous catheters in a sample of 31.
The findings include:
1. On 9/24/24 at 10:37 AM, R424 had an intravenous (IV) PICC catheter to right upper arm. R424's PICC
line catheter had transparent dressing, with no date; the bio-patch dressing, and butterfly outer catheter
was covered in dry blood, dressing was soiled.
On 9/25/24 at 10:55 AM, R424's PICC line dressing still soiled with dry blood.
R424's Physician Order states PICC line (single lumen) care to right upper extremity one time a day every
Friday and as needed, dressing change and change of caps.
2. The Electronic Medical Record (EMR) showed R374 had diagnoses of discitis of the lumbar region and
urinary tract infection. R374's EMR showed R374 was receiving daily IV antibiotic therapy for her infections
via her right upper arm PICC.
R374's Order Summary Report, dated 9/26/2024, showed an order for PICC LINE care to RUE one time a
day every Fri and prn, measure arm circumference, external catheter measurement, dressing change, and
changing of caps.
On 9/25/2024 at 9:15 AM, R374 had an intravascular central catheter (PICC) to her right upper arm. R374's
PICC line had a transparent dressing, dated 9/18/2024.
On 9/26/2024 at 9:39 AM, R374 had the same transparent dressing, dated 9/18/2024.
On 9/26/2024 at 11:40 AM, V2 (Director of Nursing/DON) said central venous catheter dressings should be
changed every 7 days or if soiled, and dated for infection control prevention. V2 said she expects nurses to
be assessing PICC line dressing routinely. V2 said R374's PICC line dressing was not changed because
she went to the hospital, and when she returned it was missed.
The facility's Central Vascular Access Device (CVAD) Dressing Change, dated 6/01/2021, showed, 1.
Central vascular access devices (CVADs) included: 1.1 Peripherally inserted central catheter (PICC) .2. The
catheter insertion site is a potential entry site for bacteria that may cause a catheter-related infection
.Guidance: 1. Perform sterile dressing changes using Standard-ANTT: 1.1 Upon admission 1.1.1 If
transparent dressing is dated, clean, dry and intact, the admission dressing change may be omitted and
scheduled for 7 days from the date on the dressing label 1.1.1.1 Upper arm circumference with PICC, and
external catheter length measurements must still be completed as part of the initial assessment 1.2 At least
weekly 1.3 If the integrity of the dressing has been compromised (wet, loose, or soiled) .7. Assessment of
the vascular access site is performed .7.3 Before and after administration of intermittent infusions 7.4 At
