Protect each resident from all types of abuse such as physical, mental, sexual abuse, physical punishment,
and neglect by anybody.
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
interview and record review the facility neglected to notify the physician and seek medical treatment after a
significant decline in condition for one of three residents (R1) reviewed for neglect in the sample of nine.
These failures resulted in R1 significantly declining in condition for two weeks before the facility sought
medical treatment and sent R1 to the hospital on 5/10/25 for evaluation where R1 was admitted to the ICU
(Intensive Care Unit) and remains in the hospital currently for treatment of Medical Neglect, Severe
Dehydration, Acute Encephalopathy, Hypernatremia, Bladder Obstruction, Lactic Acidosis, Complicated
Urinary Tract Infection, Sepsis, Metabolic Acidosis, Contractures to the Lower Extremities, and Bacterial
Pneumonia.
These failures resulted in an Immediate Jeopardy.
The immediate jeopardy started on 4/29/25 when R1 started declining and the physician wasn't notified and
treatment wasn't obtained, resulting in R1 going two weeks without medical treatment and R1 being
admitted to the to the ICU and remains in the hospital currently for treatment of Medical Neglect, Severe
Dehydration, Acute Encephalopathy, Hypernatremia, Bladder Obstruction, Lactic Acidosis, Complicated
Urinary Tract Infection, Sepsis, Metabolic Acidosis, Contractures to the Lower Extremities, and Bacterial
Pneumonia.'

On 5/28/25 at 12:21 PM V4/Director of Rehab stated, (R1) was able to straighten both legs out and he was
able to bend both legs by the time he finished physical therapy (2/14/25). (R1) was a little resistant, but with
dementia techniques we were able to get him to participate. (R1) was 25% (percent) weight bearing due to
his right hip fracture at that time. He could stand up straight but did not know his limitations with weight
bearing limitations.
On 5/29/25 at 9:22 AM V10/SSD stated, I had tried to contact (V8/R1's Family Member) a week or so prior
to the call on 5/8/25 and 5/9/25 regarding (R1's) major decline. I was trying to reach out to (V8) regarding
hospice. I left (V8) a message asking if he could call me back. When I finally spoke to (V8) and let him know
that (R1) has been getting worse, has lost weight, not eating, and possibly (R1) needing a gastrostomy
tube, (V8) would not give me an answer on Hospice and kept telling me he would have to speak to
(V16/R1's Family Member). I did let (V8) know how bad (R1) was and told him he didn't have much time to
decide about hospice. I did not call (V14/R1's Physician) regarding (R1's) condition and I am not aware if
nursing notified (V14) of (R1's) condition. The nursing staff just tell me what to call the families over and
they wanted me to consult with (V8) regarding (R1's) decline in condition.
On 5/29/25 at 9:44AM V11/CNA (Certified Nursing Assistant) stated around two weeks prior to R1 being
sent out to the hospital R1 started not being as active as he normally was. V11 stated, Usually I could talk
to (R1) and (R1) would talk back. (R1) started sleeping all the time and wasn't eating as

much. I did notice (R1's) urine was darker than usual with a little less output. I believe I reported (R1's)
urine color and output to (V12/Licensed Practical Nurse). (R1's) pain was also getting worse prior to being
sent out to the hospital. (R1) just started moaning in pain all the time. (R1's) lower legs were bent at the
knees and (R1) was unable to straighten them out. (R1) use to be able to straighten his legs.
On 5/29/25 at 9:55AM V12/LPN stated, At least a week (maybe two weeks) before (R1) went to hospital
(R1) was having a decline in his condition. (R1) stopped eating and wouldn't let us get him out of bed. I
don't remember anyone reporting (R1's) urine color or output to me, I don't typically monitor that the CNA's
usually do. I was at least (R1's) nurse two to three times a week. I reported to (V10/SSD) about (R1's)
decline in condition. I did not notify the doctor however and should have. I did not document on (R1's)
decline because I was communicating with (V10) regarding hospice, I should have documented. If we
notice a change in condition, we should notify the physician immediately.
On 5/29/25 at 10:15 AM V13/LPN stated I went to (V10/SSD) regarding a hospice consult around a week or
so prior to (R1) being sent to the local hospital. I noticed (R1) was not eating and was having failure to
thrive. I did not notify (V7/Dietitian or V14/R1's Physician) of my concerns with (R1) not eating and should
have. Typically, we would fill out an SBAR (Situation, Background, Assessment, and Recommendation) and
would send it to the doctor. I just assumed (V14) had already seen (R1) recently.
On 5/28/25 at 1:54 PM V6/Hospital Registered Nurse stated I was the admitting nurse when (R1) got
admitted to the ICU (Intensive Care Unit) on 5/10/25. (R1) could not straighten his legs, they were incredibly
contracted. (R1's) legs were both completely bent at the knees where (R1) could not straighten either leg
out. I doubt (R1) will ever be able to walk again. (R1's) mouth and teeth were caked with black sludge that
took me ten minutes and 12 different swabs to even try to get it out of his mouth. (R1) had a lack of oral
care like no one ever cleaned his mouth. (R1) had a horrible smell, (R1's) private area was excoriated and
had an (indwelling urinary catheter) and a lack of it being cleaned. (R1's) groin was very red everywhere.
The head of (R1's) penis, from the catheter rubbing and not cared for was actually split. (R1) was in severe
pain and all he could do was cry out. It was one of the worst things I have seen, I felt completely horrible for
(R1). (R1) had to have been completely neglected for a while. I was able to give him a bath here and treat
him without (R1) refusing any care. (R1) remains in the hospital at this time and is still being treated.
On 5/29/25 at 11:27 AM V14/R1's Physician stated that the last time he had visited R1 was on 4/8/25. V14
verified he was not made aware of R1 repetitive refusals of eating and drinking his med pass, refusing
weekly weights, R1's significant weight loss, or R1's decline. V14 stated, It's not right if the (local hospital)
had emptied two liters of urine from (R1's) bladder when (R1) arrived at the hospital. I am not sure what
orders the facility had to change the urinary catheter, but if the facility staff would have notified me, I would
have referred (R1) to a Urologist to assist in caring for (R1's) urinary catheter. Not changing (R1's) urinary
catheter since January 2025 could have contributed to (R1's) infection and being hospitalized . I was not
made aware of (R1's) declining condition. I last saw (R1) on 4/8/25 and I do not have any record of the
facility notifying me of (R1's) change in condition. I would have sent (R1) right to the hospital and not
messed with doing anything in house if the facility would have notified me of his condition.
On 5/29/25 at 2:54 PM V7/Dietitian verified the lack of R1 eating and drinking would have led to
hypernatremia.

On 5/31/25 at 11:36 AM V8/R1's Family Member stated, I would call and speak to (R1) a couple of times a
week from the time of (R1's) admission until he was admitted to the hospital. (R1) wasn't all the way
cognitively there, but he could hold a conversation. I would call the facility and speak with the nurses, and
they would always tell me (R1) was doing good, and that some Nurse Practitioner would see (R1) every
Tuesday and monitor his labs, vital signs, and condition. A few days after (R1) being sent to the hospital I
received a call from (V10/SSD) suggesting that (R1) receive hospice care due to (R1) not eating, having a
significant weight loss, and (R1's) decline. (V10) stated (R1) started to really decline around a few weeks
prior to this where he was becoming super weak. I told (V10) I wanted to speak with (V16/R1's Family
Member) before making any decisions because (R1) always wanted to be a full code. I was waiting for a
call back from (V16) when I then received a call from (V2/Director of Nursing/DON). (V2) told that we really
need to get (R1) on hospice. I asked (V2) if (R1) was going to die and (V2) stated Oh no, no, no (R1) is just
declining food at this point. I told (V2) I wanted (R1) sent out to the hospital to be evaluated and (V2) told
me if they would send (R1) out to the hospital, the hospital would just send him right back because there is
nothing the hospital can do. The next day I received a call from (V15/Registered Nurse/RN) that (R1) was
lethargic and barely moving so (V15) sent (R1) to the local hospital. (V15) told me she could not take it
anymore with (R1's) condition and that her conscious got the best of her, so (V15) decided she needed to
send (R1) to the emergency room. The hospital then reached out to me and told me what (R1's) condition
was and told me that my dad was severely dehydrated, malnourished, and was neglected. (R1) was in
critical condition and they didn't know if he was going to make it. (R1) remains in the hospital as of today
still being treated for his medical conditions.
On 6/2/25 at 9:59 AM V18/Hospital Physician stated, I was the admitting physician that admitted (R1) to the
hospital on 5/10/25. I did (R1's) assessment. (R1) had an indwelling catheter. (R1's) urine looked very, very
dirty and had a lot of sediment in the urine. (R1) appeared very dry looking, he was dehydrated, and his
oral cavity had tons of sludge like material with crusting in his mouth. (R1) came in with Acute Kidney Injury
and his creatine lab was five times over his baseline number of one, implying that (R1) was very dehydrated
and had been dehydrated for a while. His creatine lab was 4.94 which indicates someone has been
dehydrated for at least more than two days. (R1) appeared very malnourished. (R1) did not get like that in
just one day. I felt (R1) should have been hospitalized well before he was sent to us.
On 6/2/25 at 11:51 AM V2/Director of Nursing verified R1's Electronic Health Record does not include
documentation of V14 (R1's Physician) or V7 (Dietician) being notified of R1's 13.9 % weight loss within six
months as of 5-7-25, R1's decrease in meal consumption and refusal of meals between 4/29/25 through
5/9/25, R1's decreased consumption of med pass between 5/1/25 through 5/9/25, or R1's nutritional care
plan not being revised until 5-8-25. V2 stated, I know I spoke to (V8) on 5/9/25 to go over (R1's) decline
again and possibly needing hospice services. (V10/SSD) had called (V8) regarding (R1) possibly needing a
gastrostomy tube. (V8) had questions regarding that. (V8) did ask if (R1) needed to be sent out to the
hospital and I did tell (V8) that if we did send him out, the hospital probably would not do anything and send
him right back. I have no documentation of a physician being notified of (R1's) significant decline in
condition from 4/29/25 through 5/10/25. (V14/R1's Physician) should have been notified right away when
(R1) started not eating/drinking and started having his significant decline.
R1's admission Record, dated 5/28/25, documents R1 is a [AGE] year-old male admitted to the facility on
[DATE] with the following, but not limited to, diagnoses: Type Two Diabetes Mellitus, Unspecified severe
Protein-Calorie Malnutrition, Depression, Poly Osteoarthritis, Chronic Kidney Disease, Obstructive and
Reflux Uropathy, Celiac Disease, and Hypertension.

Timely report suspected abuse, neglect, or theft and report the results of the investigation to proper
authorities.
Based on Interview and Record review the facility failed to report an allegation of Injury of Unknown Origin
to the facility's Abuse Coordinator and the State Agency for one of three residents (R4) reviewed for Injury
of Unknown Origin in the sample of nine.
Findings include:
R4's Nursing progress note, dated 5/16/25 at 2:40 PM and signed by V13 (Licensed Practical Nurse),
documents (R4) continues increased confusion, lethargy (weakness) and not at baseline with ADLS
(Activities of Daily Living) order received to send to Emergency Department for evaluation and treatment.
Family aware and (Emergency services) called.
R4's Nursing progress note, dated 5/16/2025 at 8:40 PM and signed by V22 (Licensed Practical Nurse),
documents Nurse (V22) received call from (V20, R4's family member). (V20) told nurse that (R4) would not
be coming to the facility tonight due to transfer to a (tertiary) hospital. (R4) was given a CT (Computed
Tomography) of the head scan which showed internal bleeding. (V20) asked if his (R4) had a fall within the
last 24 hours, because the hospital informed (V20) the internal bleeding could be from a possible
unwitnessed fall. (V22) informed (V20) that no falls were documented or reported within the last 24 hours.
(V20) informed (V22) that he will be keeping in touch if anything else comes up.
R4's electronic medical record, dated May 2025, documents the last recorded fall for R4 occurred on
5/13/25 without R4 striking his head or suffering any injury.
On 5/31/25 at 8:59 AM, V2 (Director of Nursing) stated We (the facility) do not have any injuries of unknown
origin, or bruises of unknown origin in past six months.
On 6/3/25 at 2:53 PM, V22 (Licensed Practical Nurse) stated I was the nurse working the evening after (R4)
was transferred to the hospital. I took a call from the resident's family (V20) and wrote a nursing note
regarding it. I notified the DON (Director of Nursing, V2) of this information because (R4) was sent out prior
to my shift and then family called to let me know the emergency room had identified a new head bleed
injury that happened in the last 24 hours. I was not able to find any falls or incidents so I felt like the DON
should be aware of this information.
On 6/3/25 at 2:40 PM, V2 (Director of Nursing) confirmed it was reported to her that R4's family member
(V20) called and updated the facility on R4's transfer to a tertiary hospital for a fresh brain bleed that was
believed to have occurred in the prior 24 hours. V2 stated We did not do a written investigation or report to
(the state agency). We didn't know how he got the injury, and we didn't have any documented falls in the
prior 24 hours.
On 6/3/25 at 3:34 PM, V1 (Administrator) confirmed she is the facility's Abuse Coordinator. V1 stated I do
know that (R4) transferred out and that he had a brain bleed. I was not informed of the injury being reported
after he left, to have happened in the prior 24 hours. Reading the nursing note, I do see how it should have
been identified and investigated because we don't know what happened and there aren't any recent
incidents to show what the bleed was caused from. I did not report the incident (to the state agency) or
document an investigation to solve an injury of unknown origin.

his way and would see (R4) today. At 1:10 PM I called back to see what they found out and (V13) said
(V29) was on vacation and they (nursing staff) didn't realize it. (V13) said they may send him out for a
urinalysis to the hospital. At 2:33 PM, (V13) called me back and said (R4) was going to the hospital. I asked
what the (prompt care doctors office) said and (V13) said they didn't get a response back, but that (R4)
could not feed himself. I agreed he needed to go out to the hospital because that is a huge change. (R4)
would need to be seen right away. (V20, R4's Family) was able to get to the hospital to be with him. (R4) got
to the hospital according to the chart records around 3:30 PM. The emergency room told (V20) that (R4)
had a fresh brain bleed from hitting his head hard. We (family) had no knowledge of a fall. If (R4) was
unable to feed himself that is a big change, not subtle, because he's always been fine with his own meals.
On 6/2/25 at 1:58 PM, R9 stated (R4) ate at my table for meals a lot. On the day he went to the hospital
(R4) couldn't pick up his fork. He was confused and wasn't making any sense. I think maybe (R4) wasn't at
my table for breakfast, but I know at lunch (R4) had a lot of confusion and could not eat on his own which
was a big change for him. He had dementia but this was way more, (R4) just was not making any sense.
R4's Nursing progress note, dated 5/16/25 at 11:20 AM and signed by V13 (Licensed Practical Nurse),
documents Change in condition, increased confusion, increased lethargy, SBAR (Situation, Background,
Assessment, Recommendation) sent to (prompt care physician's office), (V19, R4's Family) notified.
R4's Nursing progress note, dated 5/16/25 at 2:40 PM and signed by V13, documents (R4) continues
increased confusion, lethargy (weakness) and not at baseline with ADLS (Activities of Daily Living), order
received to send to Emergency Department for evaluation and treatment. Family aware and (Emergency
services) called.

to R4 on 5/16/25 and documents the last neurological assessment for R4 was completed on 5/15/25 at
3:32 AM. This record also documents the last set of vital signs including blood pressure, pulse and oxygen
saturation was completed for R4 on 5/15/25 at 3:29 AM.
On 6/3/25 at 11:35 AM, V13 (Licensed Practical Nurse) confirmed that R4 was her assigned resident on
5/16/25 when he went to the hospital. V13 stated On 5/16 my shift started at 6:00 AM but I don't think I was
R4's nurse right away. V13 stated she first assumed care of R4 at around 11:00 AM and noticed he wasn't
acting right. V13 stated I noticed he had a change from his baseline, and he wasn't acting normal. I called
the family (V19) and I tried to contact the provider (V29) via fax. R4 was lethargic, not acting normal and
was mumbling his words, which was all new behavior. I never got a response back from (V29) and at 2:40
PM (over three and a half hours from the first recognized change in R4's cognition), I sent (R4) to the
Emergency Room. I believe when I first saw (R4) he was in his room and then he was taken to lunch and
wasn't able to eat or do anything. That would have been around noon. I would assume I took vital signs and
if I did, they would be in the computer. (R4's) increased confusion was not normal for him, nor was the
mumbled speech. (R4) had a change in condition, was off and needed evaluated which is why I ultimately
sent him to the hospital. From the first recognition of his change around 11:00 AM until EMS (Emergency
Medical Services) was called (2:40 PM) his condition remained about the same, no better and no worse.
V13 confirmed her method of reaching out to providers was all by fax and she did not call the provider
(V29) or an on-call provider when no response was received from the fax.
R4's local emergency room record, dated 5/16/25, documents R4 admitted to the local emergency room at
3:17 PM with symptoms of left side facial drooping, blurred vision, altered mental status and slurred
speech. This record documents R4 was transferred to a higher level of care hospital (tertiary) for a
neurosurgical evaluation and admission.
R4's Tertiary hospital Discharge summary, dated [DATE], documents R4 was admitted to the tertiary
hospital's Intensive Care Unit on 5/16/25 and started on medication (Nicardipine, calcium channel blocker)
to keep (R4's) systolic blood pressure below 140 (millimeters of mercury).
On 6/3/24 at 3:20 PM, V2 (Director of Nursing) confirmed R4's medical record does not document vital
signs, nursing assessments, neurological checks, or a successful provider notification with response,
throughout the morning and afternoon of 5/16/25 when R4 was exhibiting a change in baseline and new
onset of significant deficits. V2 stated she would expect nurses to complete these nursing assessments
when a resident is showing significant changes like R4 was on 5/16/25.
The facility's Acute Change of Condition policy, dated 1/23/23, documents Purpose: To provide facility
guidance when a change of condition occurs with a resident. Policy: The facility shall identify and treat
residents with acute change of conditions. This policy also documents Direct care staff, including nursing
assistants, will be trained in recognizing subtle but significant changes in the resident and how to
communicate these changes to the nurse. Before contacting a physician about someone with an acute
change of condition, the nursing staff will collect pertinent details to report to the physician, for example, the
history of present illness and previous and recent test results for comparison. Phone calls to attending or
on-call physicians should be made by an adequately prepared nurse who has collected and organized
pertinent information, including the residents/patient's current symptoms and status, history, current
medications, etc. (etcetera). The nursing staff will contact the physician based on the urgency of the
situation. For emergencies, they will call or page the physician and request a prompt response. The
attending physician (or practitioner providing backup coverage) will respond in a timely manner to
notification of problems or changes in condition and

**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
Interview and Record review, the facility failed to ensure a resident with diagnoses of Chronic Kidney
Disease and Obstructive and Reflux Uropathy (urine flow obstruction) was monitored for urinary catheter
obstruction, failed to document physician ordered urinary output, and provide indwelling urinary catheter
changes every 30 days or as needed for one of three residents (R1) reviewed for urinary tract infections in
a sample of nine. This failure resulted in R1 experiencing a significant change in condition and being sent to
the local emergency room with a subsequent admission to the hospital's critical care unit for diagnoses
including Acute Renal Failure, Bladder Obstruction, Complicated urinary Tract Infection, Lactic Acidosis and
Metabolic Acidosis.
This past noncompliance occurred from 4/29/25 through 5/13/25.
Findings include:
The facility's Catheter Insertion/Maintenance Policy, dated 5/7/25, documents Purpose: To provide staff with
guidelines for the proper insertion of an indwelling urinary catheter. Policy: An indwelling urinary catheter is
to be inserted only by order of the physician. Replacement of (indwelling urinary) catheters will be done
every thirty days or as needed when clogged/dislodged/accidental removal or ordered by the physician. The
indwelling urinary bag shall be changed every week. Indwelling urinary catheters may be flushed as
needed for maintenance/to clear clogs or slow drainage.
The facility's Indwelling Catheter Care Policy, dated 10/7/22, documents Purpose: To provide guidance to
facility staff on the care of residents with an indwelling foley catheter within the facility to prevent
catheter-associated urinary tract infections. Policy: The facility shall maintain and care for foley catheters
per the facility, following physician orders and adhering to facility infection control and best nursing practice
standards. Policy Interpretation and Implementation: c. Empty the collection bag and perform indwelling
catheter care at least every shift.
R1's MDS (Minimum Data Set), dated 4/18/25 documents R1 has an indwelling urinary catheter.
R1's current Care Plan, dated 5/20/25, documents R1 has diagnoses including Chronic Kidney Disease,
Obstructive and Reflux Uropathy and Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH) with lower urinary tract
symptoms. This same care plan documents R1 has Impaired urinary elimination related to obstruction of
urethra related to BPH. Interventions: (Indwelling urinary) catheter as ordered, notify doctor of any
complaints of problems with voiding. This same care plan documents R1 is High risk for urinary tract
infection due to catheter use, related to indwelling catheter secondary to diagnosis of Obstructive Uropathy.
Goal: (R1) will not experience any decline in mental status related UTI (urinary tract infection) through
review date. Interventions: Change catheter and drainage bag per medical doctor orders, empty catheter
drainage collection bag every shift, ensure catheter tubing and drainage bag are properly positioned to
prevent urinary backflow or contamination, observe for, and notify doctor for fever, abdominal tenderness,
flank pain, altered mental status, malodor (odor), hematuria (blood in urine) or abnormal urine
clarity/consistency, provide catheter irrigation as ordered. This care plan also contains a plan of care, dated
4/29/25, that (R1) has a urinary tract infection as evidence by burning at catheter site and abnormal
urinalysis. Interventions: Monitor intake and output, monitor/document/report to medical doctor as needed
for signs and symptoms of urinary tract infection: frequency, urgency, malaise (feeling unwell), foul smelling

On 5/28/25 at 3:10 PM V2/DON (Director of Nursing) stated that they notified R1's physician via fax on
4/6/25. V2 stated that they never received a response from the physician regarding R1's urinalysis results.
V2 confirmed they did not try to get ahold of R1's physician again on 4/6 or 4/7/25 and R1's physician did
not provide orders until 4/8/25 for an antibiotic to start on 4/9/25 (three days after facility received urinalysis
results).
On 5/29/25 at 9:44AM V11/CNA (Certified Nursing Assistant) stated that around two weeks prior to R1
being sent out to the hospital R1 started not being as active as he normally was. V11 stated, Usually I could
talk to (R1) and (R1) would talk back. (R1) started sleeping all the time and wasn't eating as much. I did
notice (R1's) urine was darker than usual with a little less output. I believe I reported (R1's) urine color and
output to (V12/Licensed Practical Nurse/LPN). I usually go to (V12) for most things. We (CNA's) were
responsible for catheter care. I noticed (R1's) tip of penis was getting slimy and then would start to crust
over. I am not sure what was causing it.
On 5/29/25 at 9:55AM V12/LPN stated, At least a week (maybe two weeks) before (R1) went to hospital
(R1) was having a decline in his condition. (R1) stopped eating and wouldn't let us get him out of bed. I
don't remember anyone reporting (R1's) urine color or output to me, I don't typically monitor that the CNA's
usually do. I was at least (R1's) nurse two to three times a week. I reported to (V10/Social Service Director)
about (R1's) decline in condition. I did not notify the doctor however and should have. I did not document on
(R1's) decline because I was communicating with (V10) regarding hospice, I should have documented. If
we notice a change in condition, we should notify the physician immediately. V12 stated that when the
nursing staff receives lab results and they are abnormal, they would expect the physician to respond that
day. If they don't the next nurse that would come on shift should follow up and if they cannot get ahold of the
physician there is an on-call number to call after hours.
On 5/29/25 at 11:27 AM (V14/R1's Physician) confirmed he did not receive R1's urinalysis results, dated
4/6/25, until he was at the facility on 4/8/25 and stated he would have started R1 on an antibiotic for a UTI
prior to 4/8/25 if he would have received R1's urinalysis results. V14 stated, It's not right if the (local
hospital) had emptied two liters of urine from (R1's) bladder when (R1) arrived at the hospital. I am not sure
what orders the facility had to change the urinary catheter, but if the facility staff would have notified me, I
would have referred (R1) to a Urologist to assist in caring for (R1's) urinary catheter. Not changing (R1's)
(indwelling urinary) catheter since January 2025 could have contributed to (R1's) infection and being
hospitalized . I was not made aware of (R1's) declining condition. I last saw (R1) on 4/8/25 and I do not
have any record of the facility notifying me of (R1's) change in condition. I would have sent (R1) right to the
hospital and not messed with doing anything in house if the facility would have notified me of his condition.
V14 verified the facility should have monitored R1's urine color and output every shift.
On 6/2/25 at 9:59 AM V18/Hospital Physician stated, I was the admitting physician that admitted (R1) to the
hospital on 5/10/25. I did (R1's) assessment. (R1) had an (urinary indwelling) catheter. (R1's) urine looked
very, very, dirty and had a lot of sediment in the urine.
On 6/2/25 at 11:51 AM V2/DON verified R1's urinary catheter outputs should have been documented every
shift.
Prior to this survey date, the facility had taken the following action to correct the noncompliance:

**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
interview and record review the facility failed to obtain physician ordered weekly weights and notify the
Physician and Registered Dietitian of a resident's repetitive nutritional supplement refusals, decreased meal
consumption, and significant weight loss for a resident with a diagnosis of Severe Protein-Calorie
Malnutrition for one of three residents (R1) reviewed for weight loss in a sample of nine. These failures
resulted in R1 experiencing a severe significant weight loss of 13.9 percent in less than six months and
requiring admission to a local hospital critical care unit for treatment of the diagnoses of Hypernatremia,
Acute Metabolic Encephalopathy, and Severe Malnutrition/concern for refeeding syndrome (Fatal Metabolic
Response).

consult around a week or so prior to (R1) being sent to the local hospital. I noticed (R1) was not eating and
was having failure to thrive. I did not notify (V7/Dietitian) or (V14/R1's Physician) of my concerns with (R1)
not eating and should have. Typically, we would fill out an SBAR (Situation, Background, Assessment, and
Recommendation) and would send it to the doctor. I just assumed (V14) had already seen (R1) recently.
Residents Affected - Few
Note: The nursing home is

On 5/29/25 at 3:43 PM V15/LPN stated I know (R1) hadn't been eating or drinking very well for a while.
(R1) would just lay there. On 4/26/25 I received an order from (V14/R1's Physician) to start (R1) on
Mirtazapine, but I did not notify (V14/R1's Physician) of R1 refusing any meals or drinks and/or losing
weight after that. I know the week prior to (R1) being sent to the hospital (R1) was not wanting to eat or
drink anything when I was there.
On 5/29/25 at 11:27 AM V14/R1's Physician stated the last time he had visited R1 was on 4/8/25. V14
verified he was not made aware of R1 repetitive refusals of eating and drinking his med pass, refusing
weekly weights, R1's significant weight loss, or R1's decline. V14 stated, I was not aware of R1's condition
after 4/8/25. I last saw (R1) on 4/8/25 and I do not have any record the facility notified me of any major
changes in (R1's) condition.
On 5/29/25 at 2:54 PM V7/Dietitian verified the lack of R1 eating and drinking would have led to
hypernatremia. The last time I reviewed (R1) was on 4/29/25. I was not aware of the significant weight loss
that triggered on 5/7/25. I was aware that (R1's) oral intake had decreased when I reviewed him on 4/29/25.
I was not aware that (R1) had not been drinking his Med Pass 2.0 or I wouldn't have suggested to increase
his Med Pass from 60 ml (milliliters) to 90 ml. If (R1) was having a significant decline with eating and
drinking that is a pattern, then they should be letting me know right away as well as documenting it every
shift so I can review it.
On 6/2/25 at 9:59 AM V18/Hospital Physician stated, I was the admitting physician that admitted (R1) to the
hospital on 5/10/25. I did (R1's) assessment. (R1) appeared very malnourished and thin. (R1) did not get
like that in just one day. I felt (R1) should have been hospitalized well before he was sent to us.
On 6/2/25 at 11:51 AM V2/Director of Nursing verified R1's Electronic Health Record does not include
documentation of V14 (R1's Physician) or V7 (Dietitian) being notified of R1's 13.9 % weight loss within six
months as of 5-7-25, R1's decrease in meal consumption and refusal of meals between 4/29/25 through
5/9/25, and R1's decreased consumption of med pass between 5/1/25 through 5/9/25, or R1's nutritional
care plan not being revised until 5-8-25. V2 also stated, If (R1) was refusing weights or his meals/drinks the
physician should have been notified at that time.
Prior to the survey date, the facility had taken the following action to correct the noncompliance:
1. R1 still remains in the hospital and will not be returning to the facility (as per family.)
2. On 5/13/25 resident chart reviews were conducted for the following areas: Significant Weight Change,
Resident Exhibiting Signs/Symptoms of Dehydration, and Hydration Status.
3. On 5/12/25 V30/Chief Executive Officer in-serviced the facility's interdisciplinary team on the
Assessment/Identification/Hydration Policy, Signs of Symptoms of Dehydration, Facility Weight and
Nutrition Policy, and Physician and Interested Party Notification.
