**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
interview and record review, the facility failed to assess a resident after CNA (Certified Nurse Assistant)
was unable to obtain resident's blood pressure or heart rate and failed to document resident's code status
in the medical record.This failure resulted in an Immediate Jeopardy (IJ). The Immediate Jeopardy began
on [DATE] around 6:30 AM when V33 (Agency RN) did not assess R18 after V35 (CNA/Certified Nurse
Assistant) notified V33 that she was unable to obtain a blood pressure or heart rate on R18. Around 7:45
AM, V33 (Agency RN) found R18 unresponsive and left R18 to find V16 (RN/Registered Nurse). V16 said
V33 told her she thought R18 expired and R18 was DNR (Do Not Resuscitate). Around 8:00AM, R18 was
found unresponsive by V41 (Respiratory Therapist) and V3 (LPN/ Acting ADON/Assistant Director of
Nursing) and CPR (Cardio-Pulmonary Resuscitation) was initiated. 911 was called at 8:33 AM by V42
(Dietary Aide/CNA). Per ambulance run report, Paramedics arrived on scene at 8:38 AM and resuscitative
efforts including intubation attempts ceased at 8:59 AM and R18 was pronounced deceased . This applies
to 1 resident (R18) reviewed for emergency response and code status availability in medical record and has
the potential to affect all residents in the facility.V1 (Administrator) was notified of the IJ on [DATE] at 12:01
PM and the IJ template was provided.The facility presented an Immediacy Removal Plan on [DATE] at 2:45
PM that was returned for revisions at 3:57 PM. The second Removal Plan was accepted on [DATE] at 6:12
PM.The surveyor confirmed the immediacy was removed on [DATE] at 2:49 PM; however, the facility
remains out of compliance at a severity level II due to the need to evaluate the new agency orientation
checklists for completion including initiation of CPR and code status documentation, all staff reeducation on
Change in Resident Condition Policy, Emergency response escalation, CPR Policy, DNR Order Policy,
nurse responsibilities for new admissions, and Quality Assurance Monitoring.The findings include:On
[DATE] at 3:46 PM, V33 (Agency RN) said on the morning of [DATE] around 6:30 AM, V35 (CNA) told her
that she could not get a blood pressure or heart rate for R18. V33 said she continued to pass her morning
medications to other residents and around 7:45 AM when she went in to give R18 medications, she found
R18 unresponsive. V33 said she then attempted, unsuccessfully, to recheck R18's vital signs with the vitals
machine and listened for R18's heartbeat with her stethoscope, but found R18 did not have a heartbeat.
V33 said she then left R18's bedside and went to find V16 (RN), who was working a different hall. On
[DATE] at 1:24 PM, V33 (Agency Nurse) said she was R18's admission nurse and V12 (LPN) took report
from the hospital on R18 for V33. V33 said V12's report paper had R18's code status on it, but V33 didn't
remember what the code status was. V33 said it is the admission nurse's responsibility to enter the
resident's code status in the electronic medical record. On [DATE] at 11:17 AM V16 (RN) said V33 came to
her on the morning of [DATE] during her medication pass and told her, I think my patient expired. V16 said
she then asked V33 what R18's code status was and while walking away from V16, she heard V33 say
DNR. V16 said she then went to R18's room to verify she had

expired and noted that R18 was pale with bluish lips, but still warm to touch. V16 said she listened to R18's
chest with her stethoscope and did not hear a heartbeat and then she felt for a carotid pulse and felt
nothing. V16 said she was then called back to attend to her residents, so she left R18's bedside. On [DATE]
at 5:06 PM V4 (Social Service Director) said on the morning of [DATE] around 8:00AM he was walking past
R18's room and saw R18 slumped to the side in bed and V16 (RN) and V44 (CNA) in R18's room. V4 said
he overheard V44 (CNA) say they could not get vitals on R18. V4 (Social Service Director) said he then
walked to the nearest clinical staff near a computer, V41 (Respiratory Therapist), and V4 asked V41 to look
up R18's code status in the medical record. On [DATE] at 12:13 PM, V41 (Respiratory Therapist) said when
V4 asked her to look up R18's code status, she checked R18's medical record and did not see any order for
code status, including DNR. V41 said she then asked V4 why he was asking and V4 told V41 R18's CNA
was unable to get vitals on her. V41 said she then went right to R18's room, assessed that R18 was not
breathing and did not have a pulse, so V41 started chest compressions. V41 said V3 (LPN/Acting ADON)
was next to enter R18's room and he took over chest compressions while V41 placed the AED (Automated
External Defibrillator) on R18. V41 said she then started ventilating R18 with oxygen and bag valve mask.
On [DATE] at 2:37 PM, V42 (Dietary Aide/CNA) said she was called into R18's room by V3 (Acting ADON)
to help with CPR efforts and after she completed 2 rounds of chest compressions, V41 (Respiratory
Therapist) and V3 (Acting ADON) were trying to figure out who R18's nurse was to find out why 911
assistance had not yet arrived. V42 said V33 (Agency RN) then came into the room and said she called 911
but, they said they can't come. V42 (Dietary Aide/CNA) said she then called 911 from her personal phone,
inside R18's room. V42 said 911 assistance arrived within 10 minutes of her call and took over CPR. On
[DATE] at 4:50 PM, V33 (Agency Nurse) said she called the universal number that is used for ambulance
transport. V33 was then asked, When a patient is unresponsive, do you call for ambulance transport, or do
you call 911? and she replied, I am not sure.On [DATE] at 1:42 PM, V47 (Assistant EMS Coordinator of
Kankakee Dispatch) said all 911 calls go through his dispatch center and they only received one 911 call
on [DATE] regarding R18, and that took place at 8:33AM, and the caller was V42.R18's ambulance run
report dated [DATE] shows 911 was called for cardiac arrest, ambulance was en route at 8:34 AM, on
scene at 8:38 AM, and at R18's bedside at 8:39 AM. Ambulance crew took over R18's care at 8:39 AM,
using an external plunger device for CPR. At 8:46 AM, 8:50 AM, 8:54 AM, and 8:58 AM, Epinephrine was
administered through IO (Intraosseous) line that was inserted by the crew at 8:44 AM. At 8:48 AM,
orotracheal intubation was attempted multiple times but complicated by patient vomiting and was
unsuccessful. At 8:52 AM iGel was used to establish a supraglottic airway for ventilation. R18 remained in
asystole (without a cardiac rhythm) throughout code and crew terminated ALS (Advanced Life Support)
efforts at 8:59 AM. R18 expired.On [DATE] at 10:46 AM, V4 (Social Service Director) said when R18 was
found unresponsive and without a code status or advanced directives, he first consulted the admissions
team who has access to the hospital chart to try to obtain the code status from the hospital documentation.
V4 said the admissions team told him they did not have anything logged for R18's code status. While staff
were performing CPR, before the ambulance arrived, V4 spoke to V45 (R18's Son) who told V4 he knew
R18 did not want extensive measures, including intubation, but to continue chest compressions.On [DATE]
at 2:09 PM, V45 (R18's Son) said he received a call from V4 (Social Service Director) on [DATE] at 8:28
AM. V45 said he told V4 he knew R18 did not want to be intubated and her living will said no extreme
measures. V45 said he never had the conversation with R18 about CPR, so he told V4 to go ahead with
CPR, but not to intubate her. V45 reiterated again, R18 did not want to be intubated or placed on
mechanical ventilation.R18's hospital orders show her last code status update in the

hospital prior to her admission to the facility was partial code as of [DATE]. In the hospital, prior to R18's
admission to the facility, her code status order showed: No Mechanical Ventilation with Intubation, Selective
Cardio Resuscitation, No Chest Compressions, and No Defibrillation/Cardioversion.R18's Face sheet
shows she was admitted to the facility on [DATE] with primary diagnosis of Acute Respiratory Failure with
Hypoxia and she had no Advance Directive or code status listed. R18's POS (Physician Order Sheet)
shows she had no physician order for code status. R18 had been admitted to the facility for approximately
16 hours at the time of her code blue and she did not have any nursing assessment documented or vital
signs.On [DATE] at 10:24 AM V2 (DON) said if the CNA notifies the nurse they could not obtain a blood
pressure and heart rate on a resident, the nurse should assess that resident immediately. V2 said if a
resident is found unresponsive and there is no code status listed in the medical record, the staff should
immediately proceed with compressions. V2 said timely initiation of CPR is important because there is a
short period of time the staff have to get the resident back and they want to minimize any damage to the
organs caused by lack of blood flow and oxygen. V2 said every minute is detrimental once the resident is
found unresponsive. On [DATE] at 3:17 PM, V2 (DON/Director of Nursing) said the resident's code status
should be entered into the computer right when the resident arrives when they are entered into the
computer system. V2 said the code status needs to be entered right away so staff do not have to spend
time looking for the resident's code status in the event of an emergency, and this is important because they
want to honor the resident's wishes if they are found unresponsive. On [DATE] at 5:08 PM, V1
(Administrator) verified R18's facility record did not show any advance directive or code status. V1 said the
resident's code status should be obtained first thing when a new admission comes, before any other parts
of the admission are done. V1 said she was not aware V45 (R18's Son) told V4 R18 did not want to be
intubated. On [DATE] at 1:16 PM, V43 (Admissions Director) said a resident's code status should be
obtained before the admission comes and if there isn't a code status on file, there should be a physician
order entered saying full code so the nursing staff know how to proceed until social services is able to
discuss Advance Directives with the resident. V43 said she cannot locate any documentation showing that
R18 wanted to be a full code. V43 said in R18's hospital chart it said she was a partial code, and that was
not discovered until after she had died.The facility's policy titled, Resident Admissions last revised 5/2024
states, .Procedure: The admitting nurse shall use the PCC (PointClickCare) EMR (Electronic Medical
Record) system admission process for all resident admissions. These processes include, but are not limited
to the following tasks within the system: A. Add resident/Patient B. Create admission C. Assign Bed D.
Advance Directives.The facility's policy titled, Advance Directives- [NAME] last revised 1/2020 states,
Policy: [NAME] Rehabilitation supports the right of all residents to participate in their own health care
decision making including the right to decide whether they wish to accept or refuse life-prolonging
measures or other treatments. [NAME] Rehab also supports the right of residents to prepare an Advance
Directive declaration or statement which clearly expresses the resident's wishes regarding the use of
life-prolonging procedures and designating another person to make treatment decisions in the event that
the resident becomes incapable of communicating his or her choices or wishes. Procedure: A. Upon
admission, written information will be provided to residents informing them of their rights under State law
regarding health care decision-making, including the right to prepare advance directives. A signed
acknowledgement that such information has been received will be required, and notation will be made in
the resident's medical record as to whether or not an advance directive has been prepared and
presented.The facility's policy titled, Cardio-Pulmonary Resuscitation (CPR) last approved 01/2026 states,

interview and record review, the facility failed to assess and notify the provider of changes in a resident's
condition after fall incident with injuries and pain for R2 and R6. This resulted in a delay of treatment for R2
and R6 for pain and a fracture from a fall incident. The facility failed to notify the provider of R4's change of
condition that included vomiting blood and black tarry stools that resulted in the need for hospitalization and
blood transfusions. This applies to 3 of 3 residents (R2, R4, and R6) reviewed for resident injury and
improper nursing. The findings include: 1. R2 was admitted to the facility on [DATE] with multiple diagnoses
which included mesothelioma, peripheral vascular disease, neoplasm-related pain, muscle weakness,
difficulty in walking, osteoarthritis, and periprosthetic fracture around internal prosthetic right hip joint per
the EMR (Electronic Medical Record). R2's Progress Note, Late Entry, created on 06/02/24 at 2:25 PM,
effective date of 05/29/24 at 2:12 PM, showed On 05/29/24 about 1650 (4:50 PM) I witnessed/heard alarm
as R2 got up from recliner in the day room and started to walk. I was at the nurses station and went to stop
him. Before I could reach him, he fell forward hitting the right side of his head on the table, and he started to
bleed. I applied pressure to the wound while (Nurse) did vitals, called family, physician, and sent him to the
hospital for eval. On 01/21/26 at 2:33 PM, V8 (RN/Registered Nurse) stated on 05/29/24, during shift
change, R2 had a fall. V8 stated she did not witness the fall but assisted the nurse who witnessed the fall.
V8 stated she obtained R2's vitals and waited with R2 until EMS (Emergency Medical Services) arrived to
transport R2 to the ER (Emergency Room). V8 stated R2 returned to the facility from the ER the same
night. V8 stated R2's return from the ER was not documented in the medical record. V8 stated after a
resident has a fall, the nurses complete a three-day, head-to-toe assessment on the residents. V8 stated if
a resident reports new pain after a fall, the provider should be notified. V8 stated the provider should have
been notified of R2's complaints of pain in the right thigh. V8 stated R2 should have had x-rays after the fall
on 05/29/24. On 01/21/26 at 3:35 PM, V9 (RN) stated R2's wife informed her that R2 had fallen a few days
ago and had been complaining of pain in the right leg and foot. V9 stated she noticed R2 did not get an
x-ray of the right leg or hip when he fell a few days prior and went to the hospital. V9 stated if a resident falls
and is complaining of a new onset of pain, the provider should be contacted. On 01/21/26 at 11:09 AM, V7
(Physical Therapy Assistant) stated R2 was evaluated for therapy on 05/23/24. V6 stated upon evaluation,
R2 was able to ambulate 200 feet without pain. V7 stated R2 was seen again for physical therapy on
05/24/24, 05/27/24, 05/28/24, and 05/30/24 without complaints of pain. V7 stated on 05/30/24, a change
with R2's gait was noticed. V7 stated there was no documentation of the nurse being notified of the change
in gait. V7 stated on 05/31/24 R2 was seen for physical therapy. V6 stated while R2 was ambulating, R2
presented with an antalgic gait pattern (painful, slow gait speed, and decreased stance on his right lower
extremity). V7 stated R2 described the pain level as five out of ten to the right lower extremity. V7 stated
when residents have a change in their gait or complaints of pain, the nurse should be notified of the change
in condition. On 01/27/26 at 3:40 PM, V2 (DON/Director of Nursing) stated the nurses are expected to
document on falls for 72 hours after the fall. V2 stated if there are any changes with pain, new symptoms, or
new injuries, the doctor must be notified. On 02/02/26 at 1:30 PM, V49 (MD/Medical Doctor) stated the
nurses should immediately report to the medical providers caring for the residents when there is new pain
after a fall. V49 stated he expects the nurses to thoroughly assess the residents, monitor new symptoms,

Residents Affected - Few
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
interview and record review, the facility failed to implement fall precautions for a high fall risk resident
admitted with a history of fall and left hip fracture.This failure resulted in R5's fall in the facility on 12/25/25,
transfer to the hospital, and diagnosis of right hip fracture.This applies to 1 resident (R5) reviewed for falls
with injury in a sample of 3.The findings include:R5's Face sheet shows she was admitted to the facility on
[DATE] with primary diagnosis of fracture of left pubis. R5's other diagnoses include: unsteadiness on feet,
abnormalities of gait and mobility, cognitive communication deficit, dizziness, osteoarthritis, and falls.On
1/28/26 at 2:35 PM, V40 (LPN/Licensed Practical Nurse) said she was the nurse taking care of R5 on
12/25/25 when she fell. V40 said she heard R5 yelling and found her lying on the floor at the foot of her bed
on her right hip and supporting herself with her right hand. V40 said R5 was confused and tried to stand up
to walk to her closet and told V40 she was trying to get her clothes to go home. V40 said she was not aware
of any fall precautions that R5 had in place at the time of her fall.V39 (Agency LPN) completed R5's
admission Fall Risk Evaluation on 12/17/25 which documented R5 had a history of 1-2 falls in the past 3
months, was incontinent, had 1-2 predisposing conditions, had recently been hospitalized , and had taken
1-2 medications currently or within the previous 7 days that put her at greater risk for falls. The score of
V39's Fall Risk Evaluation showed R5 was a high fall risk. V39 did not trigger/implement any fall
precautions from this evaluation. On 1/28/26 at 11:41 AM V39 said if a resident is high fall risk, certain
precautions should be implemented such as bed alarm or chair alarm, fall mats, and/or frequent rounding.
V39 said she remembered R5 getting more confused the longer she was in the facility, then looked through
her documentation on R5 and verified that she did not add any fall precautions/interventions after she
completed R5's Fall Risk Evaluation. V39 said R5 was a high fall precaution because she had a history of
falls but she did not implement any fall interventions because she didn't know R5 very well. V39 then stated
based off R5's fall risk score she could have implemented something.R5's Care Plan initiated 12/25/25,
after her fall in the facility, states the resident has had an actual fall with serious injury related to unsteady
gait. The goal of this Care Plan states the resident's right hip fracture will resolve without complications and
interventions include: call don't fall sign placed in room, one time order to send the resident to the
emergency room for evaluation and treatment, and continue interventions on the at-risk plan.On 2/2/26 at
2:04 PM, V3 (Acting ADON/Assistant Director of Nursing) said the facility completes a fall risk assessment
as part of their standard admission, which highlights anything that puts the resident at greater risk for fall.
V3 said a history of falls and a recent hospitalization both put a resident at greater risk for falls. V3 said after
the initial fall risk screen is done, if the resident is showing they are at risk for falls, the nurse will be
prompted to add a fall risk care plan and fall interventions to help reduce or prevent any future falls from
happening. V3 then looked through R5's electronic health record and said V39 (Agency LPN) never
implemented any fall precautions when prompted and V29 (RN/ADON) initiated R5's Fall Care Plan on
12/25/25 after her fall and wrote to continue interventions in her at-risk plan, but there was never any
interventions documented in the at risk plan. V3 said there were not any fall precautions/interventions in
place prior to R5's fall in the facility on 12/25/25. V3 said if a resident comes to the facility for rehab after hip
fracture from a previous fall, the first thing that should be implemented for the resident's safety is fall
precautions, to prevent any future injuries or falls.On 2/2/26 at 1:07 PM, V48 (NP/Nurse Practitioner) said it
is the facility protocol to put fall precautions in place for any resident admitted and assessed to be high fall

**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
observation, interview, and record review, the facility failed to provide mechanical soft diet as per physician
orders.This applies to 1 of 3 residents (R11) reviewed for safe diet consistency in a sample of 23
residents.On 1/21/26 at 11:58 AM, R11 was observed in the dining room, being fed lunch by V28
(CNA/Certified Nurse Assistant). R11's plate had the following on it: sauteed broccoli, mandarin oranges,
chicken salad sandwich, potato chips, and nectar thick root beer.R11's POS (Physician Order Sheet) shows
an order dated 1/24/25: regular diet, mechanical soft texture, nectar/mildly thick liquid consistency. R11's
Care Plan created 4/4/23 and last revised 2/3/25 states resident is at risk for alteration in nutrition/hydration
status secondary to frequent propelling, coughing/choking episodes, increased lethargy, and need for
feeding assistance. Interventions include: provide and serve diet as ordered .Resident is receiving
mechanical soft, nectar thick liquids.On 1/21/26 at 12:11 PM, V20 (Dietician) said potato chips are not
appropriate for a resident on a mechanical soft diet because they have a crunchy texture and a resident on
a mechanical soft diet needs to receive all soft foods. V20 said serving potato chips to a resident on a
mechanical soft diet poses a risk of difficulty chewing and choking. V20 said if a family member fills out a
menu for the resident on a mechanical soft diet and wants chips, the facility should offer the resident
mashed potatoes instead because potato chips are not safe to serve. V20 said R11 should not have
received potato chips and the kitchen staff should not have served R11 chips. On 1/21/26 at 1:32 PM, V26
(Dining Room Supervisor) said R11's daughter fills out her menus for R11 in advance and V26 just
transcribed what R11's daughter requested. V26 said she did not realize she was making a mistake when
she wrote chips on R11's menu. On 1/21/26 at 1:38 PM, V27 (Dining Room Service Director) said she is
the second set of eyes in the kitchen during meal service that double checks to make sure what is plated is
appropriate for the prescribed diet, but she missed R11's tray being plated incorrectly. V27 and V26 said
potato chips should not have been served to a resident on mechanical soft diet because chips are a
choking hazard.The facility's policy titled, Oral Nutrition & Feeding Assistance last revised 01/2026 states,
.Policy: It is the policy of [NAME] Healthcare to ensure that all residents receive required oral nutrition and
hydration in a safe, dignified manner that minimizes discomfort, fatigue, and risk of aspiration. Feeding
assistance shall be provided in accordance with the resident's comprehensive care plan, diet order,
swallowing precautions, and guidance from the interdisciplinary team, including Dietary and Speech
