R29's 11/8/23 Minimum Data Set (MDS) documented a Brief Interview for Mental Status (BIMS) score of 10, indicating moderate cognitive impairment. R29's 12/1/23 through 12/31/23 POS documented a 9/29/23 order to change foley catheter monthly and as needed and a 9/29/23 order to flush foley catheter twice daily as needed if tubing becomes blocked. R29's 11/5/23 at 1:00 PM Nurses Notes documented in part . UA (urinalysis) obtained (after) flushing. Notify (Medical Doctor) of results. Still (with) pain all over . R29's report on urinalysis done on 11/5/23 documented a trace of occult blood, positive for nitrite, 2+ leukocyte esterase, 16-20 white blood cells, 3-5 red blood cells, and 1+ bacteria. The reference range for these results are occult blood negative, nitrite negative, leukocyte esterase negative, white blood cell none seen to 3-5 seen, red blood cells none seen to 3-5 seen, bacteria negative. R29's Medical Record contain the 11/5/23 urinalysis but did not document the 11/5/23 culture and sensitivity or any documentation notifying the physician of the 11/5/23 culture and sensitivity. R29's 11/5/23 at 5:30 PM Nurses Notes documented in part . Lab results sent to (Medical Doctor with) orders to begin Doxycycline 100 (milligrams 1 tab twice a day for 1 week) Family aware. Resident confused (and) restless. Woke up didn't know where he was . On 11/28/23 at 10:32 AM, R29 was lying in bed with catheter collection bag hanging from bedframe. R29 catheter tubing and collection bag contained dark yellow urine with a large amount of mucous/ sediment. On 11/27/23, 11/28/23, and 11/30/23, R29's 11/5/23 urine culture and sensitivity were requested from V1 (Administrator) due to the results not being present in R29's medical record. On 11/30/23 at 3:38 PM, V17 (Infection Preventionist/ Licensed Practical Nurse) presented R29's urine culture and sensitivity report document a collection date of 11/5/23, a physician acknowledgment date of 11/8/23, and a fax date of 11/30/23. R29's urine culture and sensitivity physician acknowledgment were pre-printed on the results received from the lab. R29's urine culture and sensitivity report documented the organism was resistant to tetracycline (Doxycycline is in the family of tetracycline). V17 said the facility had just received R29's urine culture on 11/30/23 after she had called the lab to request the urine culture and sensitivity report on 11/30/23. V17 said she was unsure if anyone had notified R29's physician of the urine culture and sensitivity documenting the organism was resistant to the antibiotic ordered.

R29's Nurses Notes did not document any communication with R29's physician pertaining to R29's 11/5/23 urine culture and sensitivity report. R29's 11/1/23 through 11/30/23 Medication Administration sheet documented R29 had received doxycycline 100 milligrams twice a day for a week from 11/5/23 through 11/12/23 and 11/22/23 through 11/30/23. On 11/30/23 at 3:52 PM, V17 said she had notified R29's physician on 11/30/23 of the 11/5/23 urine culture and had received orders to repeat the urinalysis with culture and sensitivity if indicated. On 12/1/23 at 11:24 AM, V6 (Physician) said he expected to be notified if a urine culture and sensitivity was received and documented resistance to the antibiotic being given. R29's report on urinalysis done on 11/30/23 documented 2+ occult blood, positive nitrite, 1+ leukocyte esterase, too many to count white blood cells, too many to count red blood cells, and 3+ bacteria. On 12/1/23 at 1:36 PM, V6 (Physician) said if R29 had been changed to an antibiotic that the 11/5/23 urine culture and sensitivity had been sensitive to it is possible R29's 11/30/23 urinalysis would have improved. On 12/1/23 at 12:00 PM, V7 (LPN) said a few months ago the lab the facility used stopped automatically sending lab results to the facility. V7 said nursing staff had to call the lab and follow up on lab results and ask them to be faxed to the facility. V7 said sometimes she had to call the lab two to three times requesting the labs be faxed to the facility. V7 said any labs that needed to be followed up on would be written on the calendar so the nurse working that day would know to call for the lab to be faxed to the facility. V7 said she was unsure if anyone had called to follow up on R29's 11/5/23 urine culture and sensitivity. V7 said if she received a urine culture and sensitivity, and it documented the antibiotics being administered were resistant she would notify the resident's physician for a possible change in antibiotic. The facility's revised 12/7/17 Notification for Change in Resident Condition or Status policy documented in part . The facility and/ or facility staff shall promptly notify appropriate individuals (i.e., . Physician .) of changes in the resident's medical/ mental condition and/ or status .

Provide appropriate care for residents who are continent or incontinent of bowel/bladder, appropriate catheter care, and appropriate care to prevent urinary tract infections. **NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on interview, observation and record review, the facility failed to provide incontinence care in a timely manner for 1 of 1 resident (R9) reviewed for bowel and bladder in the sample of 38. The findings include: R9's face sheet document that R9 was admitted to the facility on [DATE]. R9's Physician's order's dated 12/1/23-12/31/23 list some of R9's diagnoses as physical debilitation, dementia, DJD (degenerative joint disease), anxiety disorder, dysphagia. MDS (Minimum Data Set) dated 9/13/23 note in Section C note a BIMS (Brief Interview of Mental Status) of 01 which indicates severe cognitive impairment. Section GG of the same MDS note for toileting hygiene and chair/bed to chair transfers R9 is dependent-helper does all the effort-Resident does none of the effort to complete the act. This same MDS also documents R9 is always incontinent. R9's care plan note a problem area with a start date of 1/1/23 of alteration in bladder/bowel elimination: Resident is incontinent of bladder and bowel. Some listed approaches/interventions are, pad appropriately for dignity and comfort, turn and reposition every 2 hours, assist prn. All with a start date of 1/1/23. The same care plan notes a problem area of potential for impaired skin integrity related to decreased mobility. Some listed approaches/interventions are maintain clean, dry, wrinkle free linens. On 11/28/23 beginning at 8:30 am, R9 was noted to be sitting in a reclining chair in front of the television in the front area of the facility. The reclining chair was in a reclining position with her feet elevated. During intervals of approximate 15-30 minutes in length R9 was noted in the same place in the same reclining position until 3:45pm. At approximately 3:45pm, V8 (Certified Nursing Assistant/CNA) was asked to lay R9 down for a skin observation. V8 and V11(CNA) put R9 in bed, R9's gown was observed to be wet up her back, the incontinent pad underneath R9 was also soaked. R9's incontinence brief was completely saturated with urine and had a brown color. A strong odor was also observed. R9's coccyx and buttocks were reddened, with no open areas noted. After providing incontinence care, V11 went to R9's roommates bedside table and removed protective barrier ointment and V8 told V11 not to use that and to go get a new tube of the ointment. On 11/28/23 at 3:50pm, neither V8 nor V11 answered when asked if R9 had been changed all day. On 12/05/23 at 1:11 PM, V10 (family member) said she thinks they usually do not change her until they put her back in bed in the afternoon. On 12/5/23 at 2:00pm, V1 (Administrator) said it would be her expectation that residents be checked at least every 1-2 hours to see if they are wet. On 12/5/23 at 2:10pm, V17 (Registered Nurse) said she would expect that residents be checked at least every 2 hours and be laid down after breakfast and lunch.

**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on observation, interview, and record review the facility failed to provide assistance with eating for 1 (R30) of 4 residents reviewed for nutrition out of a sample of 38. This failure resulted in R30 having a significant weight loss of 14.8% in 6 months.
Residents Affected - Few
The Findings Include: R30's Minimum Data Set (MDS) documents a most recent admission date of 11/25/22. The November 2023 Physician Orders includes the following diagnoses: Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease, Hypertension, malignant neoplasm of eye, and dementia. Current Diet order is listed as regular diet. R30's care plan with a goal date of 2/24 lists a goal that resident weight will be a proper Body Mass Index (BMI). Interventions with a start date of 3/15/23 is listed for the following: serve diet as ordered and tolerated, see orders/tray card for current diet, set up tray per resident preference, Ensure proper/comfortable positioning at table, record intake for each meal, and offer substitutes for foods not eaten, note any reporting chewing/swallowing difficulties or changes in habits or intake and notify nurse for follow up with physician, allow use of clothing protector per resident/family preference, encourage the resident to participate to the fullest extent possible with each interaction, praise all efforts for eating/nutritional care. An intervention with the start date 3/15/23 is to use lids on coffee cups to prevent spills. R30's report of monthly weight and vitals for the 2023 year lists the following weights: June 2023 is 135 pounds, July 2023 is 131 pounds, August 2023 is 125 pounds, September 2023 is 123 pounds, October 2023 is 119 pounds, and November 2023 is 115 pounds. R30 has had a significant weight loss of 14.8% over the last 6 months. On 12/1/23 at 10:30 AM, V1 (Administrator) stated that R30 does not have current supplements ordered due to poor intake of those supplements. V1 stated that several different types had been trialed. R30's Skilled activities of daily living (ADL) reports that are filled out by the CNAs (Certified Nursing Assistants) for June and July for eating are coded daily as an 'S' which is described on the form to be: Set Up/Clean Up by helper but resident completes the ADL on own. The ADL assist report for June and July is coded as a '1' for all meals that is defined as '1' being supervision (oversight, encouragement or cueing). August ADL assist report documents R30 is coded as a '1' and '2.' A '2' is defined as being limited assistance (resident highly involved in activity and staff provide non-weight bearing assistance). The August ADL report lists R30 as an 'S' or a 'V' (verbal cueing/supervision/touching, helper may touch/steady/contact guard). The September skilled ADL report lists R30 as an 'S' all month except one meal she refused. The September ADL assist report documents R30 as being a '2' for eating. The October skilled ADL sheet documents that R30 is coded as an 'S' for eating and no skilled ADL assist report was provided. November 2023 skilled ADL report was coded as an 'S' for R30, and no skilled assist report was provided. R30's Minimum Data Set (MDS) dated [DATE] is a quarterly assessment and codes eating as R30 requiring set up or clean up assistance, set up or clean up provided, resident completes activity. The annual MDS with a 12/1/23 acceptance date is coded the same as the 8/30/23 quarterly. These documents also show that R30 has a BIMS (Brief Interview for Mental Status) score of 4, which indicates severe cognitive impairment.

On 12/1/23 at 10:30 AM, V15 (Regional MDS Coordinator) stated that the MDS's are coded based on the CNA daily ADL report and ADL assist report. V15 stated that she is not in the building daily, as she is a regional MDS coordinator. V15 further stated that prior to taking on a regional position she was the floating MDS coordinator for this facility, so the facility has not had a full-time person in the MDS position for some time. V15 stated that she questions what can be done if many residents need assistance with eating because they do not have enough CNAs to do that and they are looking at reducing the nursing hours. On 11/29/23 at 11:50pm, R30 was in her room with lunch tray and drinks on the bedside table. R30's tray contained the regular diet of pulled pork, macaroni and cheese, butternut squash, and fruit cup (strawberries in juice/syrup and bananas). R30 was lying in bed with eyes closed. Observations of R30 conducted at approximately 15-minute intervals revealed R30 not attempting to eat, tray still untouched at bedside. No staff were observed going in the room to encourage her to eat or offer assistance. Housekeeping was noted entering in room at approximately 12:45PM cleaning up soda that R30 had spilled on the floor. R30 was awake and sitting up with bedside table & tray in front of her at this time but had still not taken any bites of food. At 12:52 PM, R30 started eating her fruit cup with her fingers, which contained cut up strawberries in a juice/syrup, despite having rolled up silverware in front of her. After finishing this, R30 did not attempt to eat any of the other food items on her tray. At approximately 12:58pm, V4 and V8 (CNAs) came to room. When asked at this time if R30 requires assistance with eating, V4 stated no she didn't. When asked about R30 eating the strawberries in juice/syrup with her fingers despite having silverware and pointing out the fact she did not attempt to eat any other meal items. V4 stated, yes R30 has been declining. R30 was not offered any alternative food items before her tray was picked up with only the fruit cup eaten.

or age with significant weight loss noted for 6 months (15.55%). Resident diet/supplement prescription is noted above and resident feeds self. Oral intake is reported as approximately 25-50% of most meals per the November intake log. Varied oral intake may alter weights. R30's food and fluid intake sheet for November 2023 shows a varied intake of 0-100%, with the resident usually showing an intake of 25-50%. On 12/5/23 at 12:56 PM, V16 (Regional Dietitian) stated that when she is in the facility, she observes mealtimes, reviews charts, and speaks with residents. V16 stated that she had not witnessed the issues survey staff have observed this week with R30 not eating. V16 stated that what she had seen was that R30 was able to feed herself. V16 said that CNAs fill out the ADL sheets and that is how the care plan and MDS are filled out to determined how residents are to be assisted. V16 stated she trialed all the different supplements for R30 and said that she had not been made aware that R30 needed assistance and was not eating on her own anymore. V16 stated she was just told R30 had poor intake. V16 said she would expect staff to tell her if there were any issues with residents needing more assistance, then see if adding that as an intervention would improve intake and stabilize R30's weight loss.

Based on observation, interview, and record review the facility failed to provide physician ordered therapeutic diets for 2 (R21 and R29) of 4 residents reviewed for nutrition in a sample of 38.
Residents Affected - Few
Findings include: 1. R29's face sheet documented an admission date of 6/1/22. R29's 12/1/23 through 12/31/23 Physician Orders Sheet (POS) documented diagnoses including fracture of head/neck of right femur, subsequent encounter for closed fracture with routine healing, atrial fibrillation, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, anemia. R29's 11/8/23 Minimum Data Set (MDS) documented a Brief Interview for Mental Status (BIMS) score of 10, indicating moderate cognitive impairment. R29's 12/1/23 through 12/31/23 POS documented a 9/14/23 diet order for mechanical soft with extra sauces and gravies, double protein every meal, super cereal at breakfast, nutritional drink once daily. R29's meal card documented R29 is to receive double protein at meals. On 11/30/23 at 8:03 AM, R29's morning meal tray was observed being delivered to R29 containing mechanical soft sausage, eggs, super cereal, toast, coffee, and nutritional juice drink. R29's meal tray contained a single portion of mechanical soft sausage and eggs; no double protein was observed. On 11/29/23 at 2:35 PM, R29 said he didn't think he received double protein on his meal trays. R29 said he thought he received a normal number of proteins on his meal trays. On 12/5/23 at 12:57 PM, V16 (Regional Dietitian) said she would expect R29 to have received a double portion of the mechanical sausage or the eggs on 11/30/23.

Ensure each resident receives and the facility provides food that accommodates resident allergies, intolerances, and preferences, as well as appealing options.
Based on observation, interview and record review the facility failed to obtain food preferences and offer substitute options to residents at mealtime. This has the potential to affect all 36 residents residing in the facility. The Findings Include: 1. R1's new admission information sheet documents an admission date of 6/17/22. R1 was alert to person and place during the interview on 12/1/23 at 12:30 PM when she stated that she is never asked about meal preferences or options other than the main selection. R1 stated that she is blind, so she would not be able to read the board if they did fill it out. R1 stated that she just gets what they serve her at meals, and that is what she eats. R4's food preference questionnaire is dated 6/17/23. 2. R4's new admission information sheet documents an admission date of 1/11/19. R4 was alert to person and place during the interview on 12/1/23 at 12:30 PM when she stated that she is never asked what her food preferences are, nor do they offer or tell the residents what the substitute options are for the meals. R4's food preference questionnaire that is dated 1/11/19 documents that that she 'likes most everything' under favorite foods, along with documenting what drinks she prefers with meals. 3. R6's new admission information sheet documents an admission date of 7/26/12. R6 was alert to person and place during the interview on 12/1/23 at 12:30 PM when she stated that she is never offered the substitute option for the meal, nor is it posted on the meal board in the dining room. R6 stated that she just eats what she likes off the plate that is placed in front of her and doesn't bother to ask for anything else. R6 stated that this week she did not eat the macaroni/pulled pork on 11/29/23, the taco salad on 11/30/23 nor the fish on 12/1/23, which were the main entree of each meal. R6 stated that no one asked or offered her any substitute options when she didn't eat them. R6 stated that no one reviews the menu prior to the meal with the residents. R6's food preference questionnaire is dated 12/1/23. The previous food preference questionnaire in R6's medical record was dated August 2019. On 12/1/23 at 1:30 PM, V2 (Dietary Manager) stated that the residents are to have an updated food preference questionnaire annually. V2 at this time checked R6's medical record and stated that it was time to update it due to not being updated since 2019. R6's diet card provided from the kitchen on 12/1/23 was blank under the likes and dislikes and V2 at this time also stated that was inaccurate because she knows that R6 doesn't like some foods and that she would update all of this right now. 4. R12's new admission information sheet documents an admission date of 1/3/17. R12 was alert to person and place during the interview on 12/1/23 at 12:30 PM when she stated that the staff do not go over the menus with residents prior to the meal to get options to select from in case they do not like the main entree. R12 also stated that they do not post the substitutes on the menu board for the meals. R12 does not remember being asked about what foods she likes and dislikes. R12's chart had a food preference On 12/05/23 at 11:31 AM, V9 (Certified Nursing Assistant) stated that they normally just give a bologna or peanut butter and jelly sandwich when they notice the resident is not eating or if they ask

for something else, but if they would ask the kitchen staff, they could probably heat something up.
Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm
On 12/05/23 at 1:19 PM, V16 (Regional Registered Dietitian) stated that someone should be speaking with residents prior to the meal to determine if they need a substitute choice for the meal. V16 stated that this could be any department including certified nurse assistants, activities, or the kitchen. The kitchen should have a hot protein and vegetable choice for alternate selections. V16 also stated at this time that the food preference questionnaire is filled out on admission and as needed if there are any food complaints or concerns with dietary needs.
Residents Affected - Many
No alternate selections were observed to be written on the meal board in the dining room for the lunch meals on 11/28/23-12/1/23 or 12/5/23. Residents who did not eat the meals at lunch time were offered bologna or peanut butter sandwiches during these days. No hot selections were observed as being offered as substitutes. On 12/5/23 at 11:30 AM, V2 stated that she isn't sure what the alternate selections are for today and acknowledges it is not written on the meal board but said something is in the oven. On 12/5/23 at 1:30 PM, V19 (Director of Operations) stated that there is not a policy on filling out the food preference questionnaire. The Long-Term Care Facility Application for Medicare and Medicaid (form CMS 671) dated 11/28/23 documents that there are 36 residents residing at the facility. A policy for Meal Alternatives with a revision date of 04/17 documents that it is the policy to provide appropriate alternates to those residents who dislike or do not eat the main entree and vegetable to help ensure adequate nutritional intake. The Procedure of the policy is as follows: 1. The general menus are posted within the facility. 2. An appropriate entree and vegetable alternate is prepared and readily available at meals. The alternate may be provided to the resident who dislikes the main entree and vegetable and may also be offered to a resident who eats less than 50% of their entree and vegetable at the meal. Other dining options may be available as well, such as, but not limited to, an always available menu, buffet, or restaurant style menu. 3. If the resident refuses the original entree/or the alternate; the nurse shall be informed. Refusal to eat or poor intake should be documented in the resident's medical record.

R29's urine culture and sensitivity documented the organism was resistant to tetracycline (Doxycycline is in the family of tetracycline). V17 said the facility had just received R29's urine culture on 11/30/23 after she had called the lab to request the urine culture and sensitivity. V17 said she was unsure if anyone had notified R29's physician of the urine culture and sensitivity documenting the organism was resistant to the antibiotic ordered. V17 said she expected staff to notify a resident's physician when a resident was being treated with an antibiotic that the organism was resistant to for possible antibiotic changes. R29's Nurses Notes did not document any communication with R29's physician pertaining to R29's 11/5/23 urine culture and sensitivity. R29's 11/1/23 through 11/30/23 Medication Administration sheet documented R29 had received Doxycycline 100 milligrams twice a day for a week from 11/5/23 through 11/12/23 and 11/22/23 through 11/30/23.

On 12/1/23 at 11:24 AM, V6 (Physician) said he expected to be notified if a urine culture and sensitivity was received and documented resistance to the antibiotic being given. R23's 11/30/23 urinalysis documented 2+ occult blood, positive nitrite, 1+ leukocyte esterase, too many to count white blood cells, too many to count red blood cells, and 3+ bacteria.
Residents Affected - Few On 12/1/23 at 1:36 PM, V6 (Physician) said if R29 had been changed to an antibiotic that the 11/5/23 urine culture and sensitivity had been sensitive to it is possible R29's 11/30/23 urinalysis would have improved. The facility policy titled Antibiotic Stewardship Program (review date 6/7/17) under the section Core Elements of Antibiotic Stewardship documents Reporting: Provide regular feedback on antibiotic use and resistance to prescribing clinicians, nursing staff, or other relevant staff. The Leadership Commitment Statement of the same policy documents in part .Antibiotic Stewardship is the act of using antibiotics appropriately-that is, using them only when truly needed and using the right antibiotic for each infection.
