residents their meals. V21 states it is not okay for the CNA staff to stand up while feeding the residents
because it is a dignity issue. V21 states if a staff member stands up while feeding the resident, it signals
that the staff is rushing the resident to eat. V21 states when a staff member sits down when feeding a
resident, it creates a home-like environment for the resident.
On 05/23/2024 at 12:23PM, V8 (CNA) states she stands up to feed R67 because R67 has her eyes closed
and she wants R67 to see V8. V8 states R67 also speaks Polish so V8 stands to feed R67 so R67 can hear
V8's voice.
On 05/23/2024, surveyor observes multiple other staff members sitting down while feeding residents in the

Residents Affected - Few
On 5/21/24 at 12:20 PM, Observed R30 lying in bed. Surveyor did not see a call light in place. Surveyor
asked R30 where the call light was. R30 said Its behind my head. They put it so I can hardly get it. Surveyor
asked R30 what's the purpose of the call light. R30 said I press the button if I need them. I have to yell out if
I cannot reach the call light. Surveyor asked R30 to reach for the call light. R30 made slight movements
attempting to look for the call light and said Its behind this pillow. I can't get to it.
Minimum Data Set, 4/9/2024, Brief Interview for Mental Status score indicates R30 has moderate cognitive
impairment.
On 5/21/24 at 12:30 PM, Surveyor returned to R30's room with V27 (Certified Nursing Assistant). V27
located the call light on the floor and wrapped it around R30's left upper side rail. V27 stated the call light
should not be on the floor. When R30 leans to the left the call light falls down so R30 cannot reach it. If R30
cannot reach the call light R30 will yell out for assistance. V27 stated V27 did not use the clip on the call
light to secure it because R30 is just going to lean to the left and it will fall again.
On 5/23/24 at 2:00 PM, V2 (Director of Nursing) stated all residents should have appropriate call lights
accessible to them. The call light should not be on the floor. The purpose of the call light is to alert staff that
the resident needs assistance. Anybody can answer a call light. The clip on the call light should be utilized
to clip where it is within reach of the resident. If one way of securing the call light is not working, then try a
different way to secure the call light to keep the light in place. Staff does purposeful rounding, but they are
not in each room [ROOM NUMBER]/7. We don't encourage the resident to yell for assistance, best case
scenario is the light will be in reach at all times.
Facility Call Light policy, 6/21, documents in part: Functioning call light placed where it is accessible to the
resident.
Based on observation, interview and record review the facility failed to ensure two residents (R30 and R34)
had a call light within reach and the facility failed to answer the call light within a timely manner for one
resident (R151).
Findings include:
On 05/21/2024 at 12:06 PM, surveyor observed R34's call light is on the floor. R34 stated she does not
know where her call light is.
R34's facesheet documents in part: R34's diagnosis; Unspecified dementia, psychotic disturbance, mood
disturbance, Hypothyroidism, Type 2 diabetes mellitus, Gastro-esophageal reflux disease, Chronic
obstructive pulmonary
disease, (primary) hypertension, pain in left knee due to osteoarthritis of knee.

R151 is always putting on her call light on and keeps pressing it multiple times. V12 stated any staff
member should answer the call light as soon as possible because the resident can be in distress needing
immediate assistance.
05/22/24 11:00 AM V2(Director of Nursing-DON) stated call light should be answered as soon as possible
when the resident puts it on to first determine the resident's need, then care/assistance is provided based
on the resident's needs. V2 stated all staff should answer the call light notify the appropriate staff who can
provide care to resident if the staff who answered the call light cannot assist the resident.
On 5/21/2024 at 1:16pm, V13(Licensed Practical Nurse-LPN) stated he call lights are answered by CNAs
but if nurses are not busy, they too can answer call lights. V13 stated he was busy and did not see R151's
call light on. V13 stated call light should be answered when the resident puts it on because it can be an

Level of Harm - Minimal harm
or potential for actual harm
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 record review, observation, and interview, the facility failed to check the gastrointestinal tube
(G-tube) infusion and water flush rate for 1 of 1 resident (R163) reviewed for G tubes in the sample of 35.
Residents Affected - Few
Findings include:
On 05/22/24 at 12:10 PM Surveyor with V15 (Registered Nurse) observed R163 g-tube feeding infusing
Nepro Carb Steady at 45ml/hr infusing with 350ml water flush.
On 05/22/2024 at 12:12PM V15 stated, I just took over R163 care today, the previous nurse had to leave. I
was unaware the water flush was set wrong at 350 ml the previous nurse started the feeding at 10:00AM.
Water flush should be set at 250ml as documented in the physician orders.
On 5/23/2024 at 9:30AM V14 (Consultant Dietician) stated, I worked here for over three and a half years.
I'm here once a week. I usually have a list prepared in advanced or referral to see residents. We have
meetings once a month to communicate with nursing, Nurse practitioners and the Director of Nursing. I
received reports on matrix with communication. I also follow resident that receive dialysis and tube
feedings, and weight changes. V163 was on dialysis when she came to facility but no longer is on dialysis.
The physician wanted her on Nepro her weight was elevated we have been maintaining it at 130 pounds
weight she also had some abnormal labs. I estimated R163 needs with her actual weight, she is getting
around 1800kcal 84 gr of protein 1657 cc of H2o we added protein due to skin ulcer bun creatinine is a little
better. R163 tube feeding order is 45cc/hr and H2o flush is 250. When I'm here I look at g-tube bottles to
make sure they are infusing correctly. If I notice rate for feeding or water flush is incorrect, I will address it
immediately to the nursing staff, Assistant Director of nursing or Director. All staff should follow physicians
orders for all nutritional needs.
On 5/23/2024 at 11:28AM V18 (Registered Nurse) stated, I started R163 tube feeding and water flush
before leaving yesterday around 10:00AM-11:00AM. Nurses should check g-tube feeding to make sure it's
infusing rate and water flush correct each shift. We are also checking during medication administration. If
feeding rate or water flush is incorrect it can possibly cause decrease nutritional intake, possible electrolyte
imbalance or fluid overload. R163 feeding pump was set already since started on tube feeding so I didn't
check the infusion rate. Nurses should check the electronic medication record or physician orders to verify
feeding orders and water flushes every shift.
Reviewed Record Physician orders dated 2/27/2024 document, Flush tube with 250mL water Every 6
Hours 06:00 PM, 12:00 AM, 06:00 AM, 12:00 PM.
Facility policy date 09/2023 titled Tube Feeding/Enteral nutrition documents in part,1. To maintain the
desired nutritional and fluid status of a resident.
Facility policy dated 12/2023 title Physician Orders documents in part,5. Physician orders will be
implemented by facility staff.

regarding R160 and V3 states that nurses are mainly responsible for the residents with trach collars without
vents. V3 states that respiratory therapist supports the nurse with the trach collar residents. Surveyor

on continuous oxygen via trach collar. V3 states that CNAs bring the residents back from dialysis. V3 states
that R160 has an order for 2 liters/minute of oxygen via trach collar. Surveyor and V3 walked into R160's

the resident as soon as possible to switch the resident from the oxygen tank to the concentrator. V2 states
that if a resident is supposed to be on continuous oxygen and the oxygen tank is empty, the resident's
oxygen saturation can fluctuate.
