F 0684 Provide appropriate treatment and care according to orders, resident’s preferences and goals. Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Based on observation, interview and record review the facility failed to provide required oxygenation assistance for one resident (R30). This failure has the potential to affect one resident R30 out a sample of 57. Residents Affected - Few Findings: R30 has a diagnosis of but not limited to Hemiplegia and Hemiparesis following Cerebral Infarction, Benign Neoplasm of Cerebral Meninges, Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus, Chronic Respiratory Failure, Chronic Embolism and Thrombosis of unspecified Vein and Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease with Acute Exacerbation. R30's Brief Interview for Mental Status is 07 that indicates moderately impaired. On 8/28/2023 at 10:55 am, surveyor observed R30 wearing a nasal cannula and the oxygen concentrator set at 0 liters. On 8/28/2023 at 10:56 am, V7 (RN) stated that R30's oxygen concentrator was on 2 liters, but it is on 0 liters now and he is not getting oxygen through his nasal cannula. On 8/30/2023 at 3:00 pm, V2 (DON) stated the expectation is for the nurses to carry out and implement the doctor's order. V2 stated that the oxygen concentrator should be set at the desired level based on the doctor's order and that a potential problem for the resident not receiving the prescribed oxygen is that the resident can develop hypoxemia. Order Listing Report with active orders for 8/01/2023-8/31/2023 documents, in part, Check and Record Oxygen Saturation every shift, and Oxygen continuous 2L/min via nasal cannula R/T (related to) COPD every shift.

These failures have the potential to affect all the residents on 3rd floor. Findings include: On [DATE] at 11:48 am, on 3rd floor, during the medication storage and labeling task of the medication cart labeled as Team 3 along with V19 (Registered Nurse), surveyor observed 4 cyclosporin eye drop vials in the first drawer without labels and not contained in original packaging. This was pointed out to V19. V19 stated those are for (R142); they are not in original packaging. V19 opened the bottom drawer of the medication cart and showed this surveyor the original packaging of the cyclosporin eye drop vials. The original packaging had R142's identifier and inside the box were foil containers where the cyclosporin vials were stored. V19 stated these (referring to the cyclosporin vials not in original packaging) should be in original packaging to prevent contamination and to prevent giving to another resident because these are not labeled. On [DATE] at 12:13 pm, on 3rd floor during the medication storage and labeling task with V20 (Registered Nurse) of the 3rd floor medication storage room, surveyor observed that the medication refrigerator had 8 vials of pneumococcal vaccine polyvalent 23, 6 prefilled syringe pneumococcal 13-valent conjugate vaccines, and 1 prefilled syringe influenza Vaccine with expiration date of 2023-Apr-30. On [DATE] at 12:20 pm, the thermometer inside the medication refrigerator registered the temperature at 30F. V20 stated the temperature is not within the range. The purpose of keeping the medication refrigerator within the temperature range is to make sure the medications are still viable and effective. On [DATE] at 12:22 pm, surveyor inquired how often the facility checked the medication refrigerator temperature. V20 stated we check the temperature once a day by the night shift nurse. On [DATE] at 12:05 pm, V2 (Director of Nursing) stated the expectation is for the nurse to check the temperature of the refrigerator twice daily, if there are vaccines. The importance is to make sure the temperature is maintained during storage. To maintain the potency and effectiveness of the vaccines. It is not expected to store expired vaccines because it may be given to the resident. On [DATE] at 12:08 pm, V2 stated refrigerator temperature should be between 36F to 46F per manufacturing guideline. Thirty degrees Fahrenheit is too cold. It can affect the potency of the vaccines and medications. On [DATE] at 12:17 pm, V2 stated medications should be kept in original packaging because the identifier of the resident and the instruction on how to give the medication is in the original packaging.
