F 0692 Provide enough food/fluids to maintain a resident's health. Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm **NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on observation, interview, and record review the facility failed to provide enteral feedings as prescribed by physician for 1 (R40) of 3 residents reviewed for nutrition in a total sample of 22. Residents Affected - Few Findings include: On 05/24/23 at 10:10 AM, surveyor observed tube feeding IsoSource 1.5 formula in plastic bag with R40's tube feeding infusing at 50 milliliters/hour (ml/hr.) and tube feeding formula bag labeled with R40's name, room number, date 05/23/23, time 7:00 PM, total volume 1000 milliliters, rate 50 milliliters/hour. V22 (R40's Family Member) stated a member of R40's family is at the facility daily from morning to early evening and that R40's tube feeding is routinely turned off at 12 noon so that R40 can receive therapy downstairs. On 05/24/23 at 10:52 AM, V5 (7-3 Registered Nurse/RN) stated R40 receives tube feedings and nothing by mouth. V5 stated V5 turns off and removes R40's tube feeding at 12 noon so R40 can participate in physical therapy downstairs. V5 stated R40's tube feeding is off between 12 noon and restarted at approximately 6:00 or 7:00 PM by the 3-11 shift nurse. V5 stated V5 does not restart R40's tube feeding during the rest of V5's 7-3 shift once V5 turns it off at 12 noon. On 05/24/23 at 11:58 AM, surveyor observed R40 in R40's room with tube feeding unhooked and no tube feeding longer infusing. Tube feeding formula bag was no longer hanging on infusion pole or in R40's room. On 05/24/23 at 3:39 PM, V18 (3-11 Registered Nurse/RN) stated R40's tube feeding is turned on at 7:00 PM every day. V18 stated V18 was working on 05/23/23 and V18 turned on R40's tube feeding at 7:00 PM. V18 stated V18 writes the time the tube feeding administration was started on the tube feed label along with R40's name, room number, rate of infusion, total volume, date, and V18's initials. On 05/24/23 at 4:03 PM, V13 (Registered Dietitian) state based on the estimated nutritional needs that the Registered Dietitian calculates a tube feeding order is recommended which would include the rate and total volume of tube feeding the resident would need to receive to meet those calorie and protein needs. V13 stated the RD recommendation for R40 was IsoSource 1.5 at 50 milliliters/hour for a total volume of 1000 milliliter/day which would provide 1500 calories, 68 grams protein. V13 stated R40 was diagnosed with protein calorie malnutrition in the hospital and a Registered Dietitian on 05/03/23 conferred with this diagnosis of protein calorie malnutrition based on R40's loss of body fat and moderate muscle mass loss. V13 stated R40's care plan goal is for R40 to gradual gain weight to desired body mass index to 23. R40 stated R40 receives nothing by mouth and receives all nutrition via a feeding tube. V13 stated the goal is for R40 to receive 1500 calories per day and if R40's tube feeding was run continuously for 20 hours at 50 milliliter/hour this would provide 1000 milliliters and then the resident would be off the tube feeding for a total of four hours daily. V13 stated if R40 is not receiving any tube feeding between 12 PM-7 PM this would be a total of seven hours off the tube feeding instead of four hours which would mean R40 is not receiving a total of 1000 milliliters, providing 1500 calories per day as recommended. V13 stated if R40 was not receiving the calories and protein recommended then this could cause weight loss, impaired wound healing, and lack of energy to participate in physical therapy. On 05/25/23 at 10:05 AM, V2 (Director of Nursing/DON) stated the nurse should be following the tube (continued on next page) FORM CMS-2567 (02/99) Previous Versions Obsolete Event ID: Facility ID: 145637 If continuation sheet Page 3 of 10 Printed: 05/15/2026 Form Approved OMB No. 0938-0391 Department of Health & Human Services Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services STATEMENT OF DEFICIENCIES AND PLAN OF CORRECTION (X1) PROVIDER/SUPPLIER/CLIA IDENTIFICATION NUMBER: (X2) MULTIPLE CONSTRUCTION 145637 B.

F 0803 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Few Ensure menus must meet the nutritional needs of residents, be prepared in advance, be followed, be updated, be reviewed by dietician, and meet the needs of the resident. **NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on observation, interview, and record review, the facility failed to follow the meal ticket menu for 1 (R22) of 3 residents reviewed for nutrition in a total sample of 20 residents. Findings include: On 5/23/23 at 11:47 AM, R22's eating lunch in her room. R22's meal tray consisted of pureed chicken salad, pureed orzo, pureed ginger soup, pureed cake, and coffee. R22's meal ticket shows R22 was supposed to receive 4 ounces (oz) of pureed roll wheat and 4 oz of pureed peaches. R22's meal ticket also shows that R22 is allergic to milk. R22's physician order sheet shows R22 is on puree texture, thin liquid consistency and lactose free diet. R22's Minimum Data Set (MDS) dated [DATE] shows R22 is cognitively impaired. At 11:53 AM, V17 (Dietary Aide) stated that for dessert residents get cake and no peaches. V17 also stated the kitchen has no pureed roll wheat and pureed peached prepared. At 11:55 AM, V4 (Dining Services Director) stated that residents should receive what's on their meal ticket. On 5/24/23 at 10:22 AM, interviewed V13 (Registered Dietitian) and stated that residents' allergies are indicated on their meal tickets, and staff should provide all foods and beverages listed on the residents' meal tickets. V13 stated that if a resident is allergic to milk and if any sort of menu item has milk in it, a substitution will be provided to the resident. V13 also stated that the cake should not be provided to resident who's allergic to milk. V13 stated R22 is on a lactose-free pureed consistency diet. V13 checked R22's records and V13 stated R22 was supposed to get the pureed wheat roll and pureed peaches on 5/23/23 for lunch. V13 stated that the peaches were R22's alternative for the cake because R22's allergic to lactose. V13 stated that it is very important for the staff to follow the meal ticket because it reflects not only the residents' needs of caloric intake, but also reflects the allergens, reflects the mechanically altered diet, and potential interactions with medication. V13 that residents could have allergic reactions to something, could aspirate, or could lose weight if residents are not provided with their caloric needs. V13 stated that V13 approves the menus, and the meal tickets are paper communication for the nurses and Certified Nursing Aides (CNAs) from the kitchen.

F 0812 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Many Procure food from sources approved or considered satisfactory and store, prepare, distribute and serve food in accordance with professional standards. Based on observation, interview, and record review, the facility failed to follow their policy and procedure for food and supply storage to ensure food and dairies in the main cooler were discarded after the expiration date. This failure has the potential to affect 42 residents in the facility who are receiving oral diet. Findings include: On 5/23/23 at 9:28 AM, during the initial kitchen tour with V4 (Dining Services Director), the following were found in the main cooler: a container of cooked mushrooms labeled today's date 5/15 and good thru 5/15. V4 stated, I think it's expired already. It needs to be thrown out. Also found 5 half gallons of whole milk labeled with best by dates of May 19. V4 stated, They are expired and should have been thrown out, they should have been thrown out on Friday. V4 stated if residents are served with expired foods, they could potentially get illness. On 5/24/23 at 10:22 AM, interviewed V13 (Registered Dietitian) and stated that expired foods and dairies should be removed and disposed of from the main cooler. V13 stated that foods and dairies with best by and expired dates mean that they need to be discarded either that day or the following day. V13 stated that staff are not supposed to be serving expired foods and dairies. V13 stated residents could potentially get sick and get IBS (Irritable Bowel Syndrome) symptoms such as diarrhea, nausea, and stomachache especially with the expired dairy would be the most common.
