F 0550 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Some Honor the resident's right to a dignified existence, self-determination, communication, and to exercise his or her rights. **NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on observation, interview and record review, the facility failed to protect a resident's right to have their call light answered in a timely manner for four residents (R1, R2, R4 and R5) reviewed for call lights in a sample of eight. Findings include: The facility's Call Light Guidance policy dated 9/22/20 documents Resident call light shall be responded to within a reasonable amount of time. R1's minimum data set (MDS) documents a brief interview of mental status (BIMS) of 14. R2, R4 and R5's MDS documents a BIMS of 15. A BIMS of 12-15 indicates an individual is cognitively intact. The facility's Resident Council Minutes dated 8/29/23 and 10/30/23 documents Resident stated call light wait times are long. On 12/6/23 at 8:48 AM, R1 stated It would take the CNAs (Certified Nursing Assistant) two hours to answer my call light. I got tired of waiting for my call light to be answered one night so I transferred myself to the wheelchair and went out in the hallway and found a CNA sleeping. That explains why they take so long to answer the call light. On 12/6/23 at 9:15 AM, R5 stated It takes a long time for them to answer the call light. I would say up to an hour. On 12/6/23 at 9:30 AM, R2 stated Sometimes it may be an hour before they answer my call light. Most of the tine I sit here just waiting wondering how long it'll be today. On 12/6/23 at 9:35 AM, R4 stated Them answering my call light is a joke. It takes them hours to answer it. It's not just once. It happens regularly. On 12/7/23 at 3:30 AM, V11, CNA stated I heard there was a CNA on third shift sleeping and not answering call lights, but I only heard. I didn't see it. She's not here anymore. On 12/7/23 at 5:23 AM, V1, Administrator, stated There was a CNA that was caught sleeping, but she was in her probationary period and was let go. I'll have you talk to (V14, Human Resources) when she comes in because she'll know more about it. It only happened the one time.

F 0550 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Some On 12/7/23 at 8:30 AM, V14, Human Resources, stated (V15, CNA) was caught sleeping on third shift. She was new and still in her probationary period. We had a meeting set up to find out what happened, but she never showed up to the meeting or work. I never heard from her again. From what I understand, it was an isolated incident. On 12/7/23 from 9:00 AM to 9:35 AM, a continued observation of call lights was conducted. room [ROOM NUMBER]'s call light came on at 9:04 AM and was answered by staff at 9:25 AM. room [ROOM NUMBER]'s call light came on at 9:04 AM and was answered by staff at 9:28 AM. On 12/7/23 at 12:25 PM, V1, Administrator, stated I think 30 minutes is not timely. I would say 20 minutes is pushing it. You saw longer than normal wait times for the call lights because around 9:00 AM is one of our busiest times. On 12/7/23 at 12:30 PM, V2, Director of Nursing (DON) stated I would like the call lights to be answered no more than 20 minutes. If my loved one was in a nursing home, it would want them to wait any longer than that.

Level of Harm - Actual harm Residents Affected - Few Based on observation, interview and record review, the facility failed to protect the resident's right to be free from verbal abuse by staff for one resident (R8) out of three residents reviewed for abuse in a sample of eight. This failure resulted in R8 having feelings of being intimidated for prolonged periods of time. Findings include: The facility's Abuse policy dated 10/24/22 documents The administrator and/or designee is the facility abuse coordinator for the facility. It is the responsibility of all facility staff to assure that all residents remain to be free from abuse, including injuries of unknown origin, neglect, exploitation, misappropriation of property, deprivation of goods and services by staff or mistreatment. R8s minimum data set (MDS) documents a brief interview of mental status (BIMS) of 15. A BIMS of 12 -15 indicates a resident is cognitively intact with 15 being the highest score. On 12/7/23 at 9:35 AM, V6, Certified Nursing Assistant, observed entering R8's room. Upon entry of R8's room, R8 stated I want to get up. V6 replied in a stern tone I said 10:30. R8 stated But I want to get up now. V6 replied raising her voice You think you're above everyone else? It'll be 10:30 like I said! You want to play games? Then that's what we'll do we'll start playing games! At this point R8 started crying and stated, Every time you're my CNA, you do this to me. V6 replied in an even louder tone stating I'm down here working hard to be here (raising voice) on time (yelling) for you! While still crying R8 started talking and V6 interrupted her started stating that she was going to (V1, Administrator) to be taken off of R8's group. As R8 was still trying to speak, V6 started yelling I'm not going back and forth with you! I'm not going to let you disrespect me! At that point, while still crying, R8 pointed to this surveyor and stated, He's from the state and just heard everything you said. V6 turned looked at this surveyor and stated, I don't care. On 12/7/23 at 9:40 AM, V1 Administrator, was informed of the incident. V1 stated That's not how we do things here. (R8) can be a very difficult person to work with, but that's still no excuse. (V6, CNA) should have walked out of the room and taken a moment instead of arguing with (R8). On 12/7/23 at 9:55 AM, V1 Administrator, stated I went down to talk with (R8) about the situation, but she didn't say much. I think she's still upset about the situation. (V6, CNA) has taken off the floor and sent home. On 12/7/23 at 10:45 AM, R8 stated No I'm not OK. It's not the first time (V6, CNA) has yelled at me. (R8's voice started cracking and her eyes became watery) Every time (V6) works with me, she makes me feel belittled. Like I'm not good enough. She treats me as though she's the boss and has power over me. Every time she's here I feel intimidated. I feel this way the entire time (V6) is here. It's the whole shift until she goes home. I didn't tell anyone because it won't do any good.

On 12/6/23 at 7:50 AM, V7, Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) stated With there only being three CNAs in the building, we do miss showers, but we try to make it up on Sunday. That doesn't always happen, but they try. If a resident refuses a shower, the resident has to sign a refusal and the nurse has to talk to them. That happens rarely though. Most residents grab their shower when they can because who knows when they'll get their next one. On 12/6/23 at 8:05 AM, V6, Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA), stated When you have three CNAs to 60 residents, sometimes showers don't get done. It happens a lot.

We're always playing catchup. There are times when they just don't get done. On 12/6/23 at 8:15 AM, V9, CNA stated Only having three CNAs to 60 residents happens more than usual. As a result, not all the cares like showers get done. On 12/6/23 at 8:48 AM, R1 stated I wasn't getting my shower when I was there. I was there for about two and a half weeks and never got one.

On 12/6/23 at 7:50 AM, V7, Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) stated With there only being three CNAs in the building, we do miss showers, but we try to make it up on Sunday. That doesn't always happen, but they try. The residents have complained that things aren't getting done. We have a lot of two person assists on this side of the hall, so I jump in and spot.

On 12/6/23 at 9:15 AM, R5 stated When I asked them why I wasn't getting my shower or why it takes them so long to answer my call light, I always get the same answer. They're short of staff. Then hire some more! We shouldn't have to suffer because the company won't pay for more staffing.

On 12/6/23 at 9:35 AM, R4 stated The excuse they give me of why it takes them hours to answer my call light or why they didn't give me a bed bath is staffing. They don't have enough staff to meet everyone's needs. The DON (Director of Nursing) even had to pass medication one day because there weren't enough nurses. On 12/6/23 at 3:15 PM, V1, Administrator, stated I didn't know the Facility Assessment had to include what our staffing numbers had to be. Right now, I can't answer your questions on what our staffing ratios for our resident population should be. I'll have to talk to corporate and see if we can get the Facility Assessment updated for you. The facility's Daily Assignment Sheet dated 10/1/23 through 12/6/23 was reviewed.
