Based on observation, interview, and record review, the facility failed to provide care with dignity to 3 of 3 residents (R21, R56, and R50) reviewed for resident rights in a sample of 23. Residents Affected - Few The findings include: On 12/17/24 at 12:33 PM, during a dining observation, V4 CNA (Certified Nurse's Assistant) was observed standing over R21 while feeding R21 her lunch. Then V4 moved to a nearby table and stood over R56 and began feeding R56. Then after giving R56 a few spoons of food, V4 returned to the first table and stood between R21 and R50, feeding both. This was done for the entire lunch for R21, R56, and R50. On 12/19/24 at 01:30 PM, V2 DON (Director of Nursing) said that the staff should be sitting next to the residents while feeding them for dignity and home life environment. R50's 11/10/24 MDS (Minimum Data Set) showed his mental cognition is severely impaired and he needs partial/moderate assistance from staff for eating. R56's 10/25/24 MDS showed that her cognition is severely impaired and she needs partial/moderate assistance from staff for eating. R21's 9/30/24 MDS showed that her cognition is severely impaired and she needs partial/moderate assistance from staff for eating. The facility's Assistance with Meals policy dated March 2022 shows that residents shall receive assistance with meals in a manner that meets the individual's needs of each resident. Who cannot feed themselves will be fed with attention to safety comfort and dignity for example not standing over residents while assisting them with meals. The facility's Dignity policy dated February 2021 showed that each resident shall be cared for in a manner that promotes and enhances his or her sense of well-being, level of satisfaction with life, and feelings of self-worth and self-esteem. Residents are treated with dignity and respect at all times. When assisting with care, residents are supported in exercising their rights for example, residents are provided with a dignified dining experience.

Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Based on observation, interview, and record review, the facility failed to provide ADL (Activities of Daily Living) care for residents who require assistance from staff for ADLs. Residents Affected - Some This applies to 4 of 4 residents (R11, R46, R52, R60) reviewed for ADLs in a sample of 23. The findings include: 1. On 12/17/24 at 12:02 PM, R52 was observed in her bed and a mat was on the floor next to her bed and her lunch plate and dessert cup was on her over the bedside table out of her reach. On the plate was mashed potatoes and a scoop of a brown substance. There was also a cup of a pureed brown substance in a dessert cup. None of the food had been touched. At 12:23 PM, R52 was observed in her bed, her food was still on her over the bedside table out of reach untouched, and R52 said she was hungry. At 01:03 PM, R52 was still in her bed, her lunch was still out of reach on her over the bedside table and R52 again said that she was hungry. The plate of food was still full and untouched. The surveyor then left R52's room and stood next to R52's door and at 01:04 PM V5 (Kitchen staff) went into R52's room and came back out of her room with R52's full plate and full dessert cup and disposed of the items on her cart. V5 said that she informs the nursing staff when the residents have not eaten their food. R52's 11/13/24 care plan shows that R52 is at risk of weight loss and requires extensive assistance for eating with interventions including requires adequate time to eat, provide cures and encouragement. R52's 11/13/24 MDS (Minimum Data Set) showed that her cognition is severely impaired and she needs substantial/maximal assistance for eating. On 12/19/24 at 02:04 PM, V2 (DON) said that R52 care has just changed from Palliative to Hospice and she has had a significant weight loss. V2 said that because of R52's current care needs, her expectations are for the staff to attempt to feed R52, give her time when she eats, re-approach and try to attempt to feed her again. 2. On 12/18/24 at 11:26 AM, R11 was observed with long jagged fingernails. R11 said that he had not received nail care in a couple of weeks. R11's 10/6/24 care plan showed that R11 requires supervision for personal hygiene with interventions including setting up items, assistance as needed, and supervision and cueing. R11's 10/6/24 MDS showed that R11's cognition is severely impaired. 12/19/24 01:57 PM, V2 DON (Director of Nursing) said that staff should provide nail care as needed. 3. On 12/17/24 at 12:14 PM, R46 was observed in his bed with long toenails, about 1 inch over the top of the toes. R46 said that he could not recall the last time he had toenail care. R46's 10/3/24 MDS showed that his cognition is moderately impaired and that he needs partial/moderate assistance from staff with personal hygiene. On 12/19/24 at 02:01 PM, V2 said that R46 is not a diabetic so the nurse or the CNAs (Certified Nurse's Assistants) should have cut R46's toenail for his comfort, dignity, and safety.

V2 stated it is his responsibility to submit the pharmacy reviews to the physician for review but he has been behind. V2 stated the process is for pharmacy to email him the recommendations. He is supposed to place the recommendations in a binder for the physician to sign off on, and the physician leaves the addressed recommendations in the binder for him to follow up on. V2 stated documentation for R21 and R51 was not available. The facility policy Medication Utilization and Prescribing- Clinical Protocol dated April 2018 states the consultant pharmacist should use the monthly and interim drug regimen review to help identify potentially problematic medications, including medication regimens that are not supported based on clinical signs or symptoms. Based on input from the staff and resident, the physician will adjust mediations based on their efficacy, indications and the continued presences of clinically significant risks. The physician will provide and / or document a rationale when the indication dose, duration or frequency of a prescribed medication is greater than the commonly accepted practice or the manufacturer's recommendations or the medication is considered high risk compared to other available, relevant alternatives. The physician will document a clinically pertinent rationale for not modifying a medication in a situation where an adverse drug reaction is likely.
