Develop and implement a complete care plan that meets all the resident's needs, with timetables and
actions that can be measured.
Based on observation, record review and interview the facility failed to develop a comprehensive care plan
for two (R 27 and R 54) of 15 residents reviewed for care plans in a total sample of 24.
Residents Affected - Few
Findings Include:
Facility Care Planning policy, revised 7/14/22, documents To utilize the results of the comprehensive
assessment to develop, revise, and review resident's care plan. To provide a method for all staff to have
needed information in caring for the residents. Each resident will have a plan of care to identify problems,
needs and strengths that will identify how the interdisciplinary team will provide care. The resident care plan
is the tool used to coordinate all care provided to the resident to be sure care is necessary, appropriate,
and planned to meet the individual needs of the resident. It is the responsibility of the staff to ensure that
when providing care, the care plan information is utilized. Concerns and problems sources are, but not
limited to: relating to diagnoses, physician's orders, and problems related to preventive care.
Approach/Plan: List care to be provided for the problem listed. The care must be necessary and appropriate
to accomplish the goal stated. Individualized care for the unique needs of the resident. List preventive
measures. Resident Care Plan Documentation and Use of the Plan: The MDS/Minimum Data Set nurse
shall evaluate every new order form the physician to determine if the resident's care plan requires updating,
and the resident care plan must be kept current.
1. R27's online record documents R27 has the following diagnoses: Chronic Kidney Disease Stage 3 and
Heart Failure.
R27's physician order sheet, dated September 1-30th 2022, documents the following: Daily weight
monitoring due to Heart Failure every day for Heart Failure; and tubigrips to bilateral lower extremities every
shift.
R27's current care plan does not include R27's diagnoses of Heart Failure and Chronic Kidney Disease
Stage 3, or R27's orders for his daily weights and tubigrips for both of his lower legs.
On 9/6/22 at 10:18 AM, R27 was in his room in his wheelchair with his bilateral tubigrips on.
On 9/08/22 at 11:50 AM, V2 DON/Director of Nursing stated, Our last Care plan/MDS-Minimum Data Set
person quit in July (2022), so we are covering as best we can, we hired our current Care plan/MDS person
about two weeks ago.

2. R54's medical record documents R54 has a left-hand contracture.
On 09/06/22 at 10:20 AM R54 stated I'm supposed to have a carrot in my left hand to help prevent this
(contracture), but they lost my carrot. It's been a few days since I've used it. They call it a carrot because it
looks like a carrot. It's a soft pillow like device that fits into my hand and opens it up. The staff don't know
where it's at.
On 09/07/22 at 1:32 PM, V6, Certified Occupational Therapy Aide (COTA) stated We did the evaluation for
(R54)'s left hand contracture. After the assessment, we started her on a trial to use a therapy carrot to see
how she does with it. (R54) is doing really good with it because (R54) actually uses her carrot more than
any other resident. The carrot helps prevent further contraction (Tightening) of the hand. She's supposed to
have the carrot. I brought you (R54)'s Occupational Therapy (OT) evaluation and highlighted the section
that address the need for interventions of her contracture.
R54's Occupational Therapy (OT) evaluation dated 8/29/22 through 9/27/22 documents Clinical
impression/Reason for skilled services: Patient would benefit from skilled OT interventions to provide
continued assessment of orthotic and establish wear schedule with caregiver and patient education as
needed as well as address underlying impairments that are impacting functional performance.
R54's current care plan does not address R54's left-handed contraction or interventions for the left-hand
contracture.
On 9/9/22 at 8:57 AM, V2 Director of Nursing (DON) stated I looked at the (R54)'s care plan and her
contracture wasn't added to it. We have a new Care Plan Coordinator that's still learning, so it was missed.
It definitely should have been in there.

7/20/21 documents C. diff germs are carried from person to person in the feces. If someone with C. diff (or
caring for someone with C. diff) doesn't clean their hands with soap and water after using the bathroom,
they can spread the germs to people and things they touch.
C. diff can also live on people's skin for months. People who touch an infected person's skin can pick up the
germs on their hands. Alcohol based hand sanitizers are ineffective in killing c. diff due to the spores.
Washing with soap and water is the best way to prevent the spread from person to person.
1. R41's current physician order dated 8/11/22 documents Droplet Isolation precautions for MRSA
(Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus) of the Sputum.
On 09/07/22 at 9:14 AM, V3, Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN), observed entering R41's room with N95
mask and face shield on. There is a sign posted at the entryway of R41's room identifying R41 as being
under droplet isolation precautions. V3, LPN entered the room and did not don additional PPE, walked
across the room to the window where R41 was sitting and gave R41 a medication cup with medication in it
and a cup of water. R41 poured the medications directly into her mouth from the medication cup, drank the
water from the cup and then handed the medication cup and water cup back to V3, LPN. V3, LPN threw
them in the garbage and exited the room. After exiting the room, V3, LPN sanitized her hands and stated I
don't know why (R41) is on isolation precautions. I can look it up. It looks like she's on droplet isolation for
MRSA of the sputum. V3, LPN, looked behind her at the isolation cart outside of R41's room and
acknowledged she should have worn droplet precaution level PPE when entering R41's room.

Residents Affected - Few
On 09/07/22 at 9:27 AM, V4, Medical Records (MR), was observed entering R31's room with only a N95
and face shield on. There was a sign posted at the entryway of R31's room identifying R31 as being under
contact isolation precautions. V4, MR, was observed touching R31 with ungloved hand, speaking with R31
and then exiting the room. After exiting the room, V4, MR, used hand sanitizer and stated I don't know why
(R31) is under contact precautions. I didn't notice it when I went in. I was just walking by, saw the call light
on, so I went in to see what she needed. I should have worn the gown and gloves when entering the room.
On 9/8/22 at 2:00 PM, V1, Administrator and V2, Director of Nursing (DON) and V6, Assistant Director of
Nursing (ADON) verified R31 and R41 are under transmission-based precautions and stated V3,
LPN-Licensed Practical Nurse, and V4 MR, should have worn the identified level of PPE-Personal
Protective Equipment when entering R31 and R41's room. V2, DON, stated V4, MR, should have washed
her hands with soap and water instead of using the hand sanitizer due to (R31) having C. Diff.
On 9/9/22 at 11:00 AM, V2, Director of Nursing (DON), stated We don't have a policy that addresses C. diff.
We just use the CDC-Centers for Disease Control and Prevention standards of practice.
