What the inspector wrote

This survey cited 26 deficiencies, 2 of them serious (actual harm or immediate jeopardy). The full statement and the facility’s plan of correction follow, verbatim from the federal record.

F 0656 Develop and implement a complete care plan that meets all the resident's needs, with timetables and actions that can be measured. Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm **NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Residents Affected - Few Based on observation, interview, and record review, the facility failed to follow their policy and procedures for fall prevention by not comprehensively assessing risks for all falls and not ensuring fall interventions were implemented for a resident who is at high risk of falls. This failure applied to one (R122) of four residents reviewed for falls. Findings include: R122 is an [AGE] year-old female with diagnoses history including Dementia, Alzheimer's, Restlessness and Agitation, Bipolar Disorder, Anxiety Disorder, Difficulty in Walking, Unsteadiness on Feet, Need for Assistance with Personal Care, and Chronic Congestive Heart Failure who was admitted to the facility 03/16/23. The facility's fall log from 11/15/22 to 05/15/23 documents R122 had 15 unwitnessed falls from 03/28/23 05/15/23. There were no post fall/fall risk assessments completed for R122's falls occurring 03/26/23, 03/28/23, 03/31/23, 04/05/23, and 04/08/23. R122's medical records did not include progress notes or incident reports for 10 of her falls. The facility could not provide incident reports for 14 of her falls. R122's current care plan initiated 03/16/23 documents she is at risk for falls and/or has the potential for complications with or falls related to current medical/physical status. R122 has medications and diagnoses that can/may affect fall risk. R122 fell 3/26/2023, 3/31/2023, 3/28/2023, 4/2/2023, 4/4/2023, 4/7/2023,5/13/2023, and 5/15/2023 with interventions including - frequent checks (initiated 03/28/23); toilet her after lunch and dinner, encourage her to stay in common area if not sleeping, Involve her in activities (initiated 5/15/2023); Provide individualized AM activities (initiated 4/10/2023); Check for unmet needs: pain, toileting, hunger, thirst, temperature (initiated 3/29/2023); Continue frequent checks, toilet before meals, Put resident close to nurses station/common area, nonskid socks, Keep in common before meals area when awake (initiated 3/31/23, revised 4/07/23). R122's fall care plan did not include any initiated or revised interventions for falls occurring 03/26/23, 04/02/23, 04/04/23, 04/05/23, 04/06/23, 04/08/23, 05/10/23, or 05/13/23.

F 0656 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Few Nursing and the clinical [NAME] review these reports and a new intervention is implemented and added to the care plan. On 05/17/23 at 01:22 PM, V3 (DON) stated if post fall reports are not completed, it could prevent care plan interventions from being implemented. V3 agreed if post fall assessments are not completed this may prevent identification of potential contributing factors of falls. The facility's Accidents/Falls Policy reviewed 05/18/23 states: Resident care plans should be evaluated and updated with each fall with a new applicable intervention based on root cause. The focus is prevention and maintaining a safe environment. Any episode of a fall should be documented within the electronic health record within risk management/incidents. Each incident/accident or fall must be investigated and/or assessed to determine the root cause of the episode to prevent any further injury. The interdisciplinary team will review all incident/accident A post fall assessment will be conducted following any fall episode.

F 0686 Provide appropriate pressure ulcer care and prevent new ulcers from developing. Level of Harm - Actual harm **NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Residents Affected - Few Based on observation, interview, and record review, the facility failed to implement interventions according to resident's plan of care in preventing the development of a pressure ulcer for one (R13) of two residents in the sample of 21 reviewed for pressure ulcers. This failure resulted in R13's intact skin developing moisture associated skin damage on the left buttock which progressed to a Stage 4 pressure ulcer. Findings include: R13 is an [AGE] year-old female, admitted in the facility on 09/30/22 with diagnoses of Pressure Ulcer of Sacral, Stage 4, Neurocognitive Disorder with Lewy Bodies and Unspecified Dementia, Unspecified Severity, Without Behavioral Disturbance, Psychotic Disturbance, Mood Disturbance and Anxiety.

F 0686 Recommendation: Keep patient out of chair until wound improves. Level of Harm - Actual harm On 05/15/23 at 11:00 AM, R13 was observed sitting in her wheelchair in the dining room. R13 is alert, verbal but unable to state if she has wound on the lower back when asked. She was observed in the dining room until 1:50 PM when she was put back into bed. At 4:50 PM until 6:00 PM, she was again observed up in her wheelchair in the dining room, eating dinner. Residents Affected - Few On 05/17/23 at 12:49 PM, R13 was observed in the dining room sitting in her wheelchair. V8 (Certified Nurse Assistant/CNA) was asked regarding R13. V8 stated, I am her regular CNA. She has pressure ulcer on the left buttock and on the sacrum. She is usually up in the wheelchair at 7:30 AM until 10:00 AM, then to bed. She stayed in bed for two hours. She is up again at 11:30 AM for lunch and put to bed around 1-1:30 PM. This is her routine. She is wearing incontinent brief and uses the toilet. I check her for incontinence every two to two and a half. At 1:17 PM, R13 was brought to the bathroom by V8 for incontinence care. R13's incontinent brief was observed moderately soaked with urine. V8 stated that she changed her (R13) brief at 10 AM. V8 used disposable wipes to clean R13's peri area and buttocks then put on her brief. V8 did not apply any skin protective cream on R13's peri area and buttocks prior to securing her (R13) brief. Subsequently, she (R13) was transferred back to bed. On 05/17/23 at 1:25 PM, wound care was observed on R13 provided by V6 (Registered Nurse, RN). Her (R13) pressure ulcer on the left buttock is like the size of a dime, wound bed appeared red to purplish in color, with measurements of 1.4 cm x 2 cm x 1.3 cm. According to V6, She acquired her left buttock pressure ulcer in the facility on 08/19/22, started as MASD due to her being wet often. She needs to be checked and changed three to four times in the morning, like every two hours. Her MASD became Stage 4. Interventions in preventing pressure ulcer are repositioning; frequent toileting; wheelchair cushion; incontinence care every two hours. She should be sitting up for meals and put to bed after meals. On 05/17/23 at 9:48 AM, V3 (Acting Director of Nursing) was interviewed regarding R13 and pressure ulcer on the left buttock. V3 verbalized, She has a pressure ulcer on the left buttock, Stage 4, facility acquired, was identified on 08/19/2022, as non-pressure wound due to MASD. On 10/06/22, the left buttock MASD became Unstageable due to necrosis. On 11/18/22, the Unstageable left buttock pressure ulcer became Stage 4. It started as MASD caused by wet diaper or not applying moisture skin barrier. Staff has to check residents for incontinence care at least every two hours, more often. Change incontinent brief when needed. She always sits in the wheelchair, eats breakfast in the dining room, if she is on therapy, therapy takes her. She eats lunch in the dining room. She needs repositioning; offload wounds. V11 (Wound Doctor) was interviewed on 05/17/23 at 02:17 PM regarding R13. V11 stated, It was an acquired pressure ulcer on the left buttock, started as MASD, now its Stage 4. Cause is moisture from incontinence. In providing incontinence care, clean resident in a timely manner, follow whatever protocol in place, turn in a timely manner. Apply protective barrier cream which could be a part of incontinence care. Keep her out of chair since wound is improving. Weekly wound round documentation dated 05/11/23 recorded R13's left buttock Stage 4 pressure ulcer measures 1.5 x 1.3 x 1.4 cm, undermining/tunneling at 2.5 cm at 1 o'clock 5. Progression/Interventions: 6a. Additional information: Keep patient out of chair until wound improves; offload wound; turn side to side in bed every 1-2 hours if able.

F 0689 Level of Harm - Actual harm Residents Affected - Few procedures for fall prevention by not consistently assessing risks for falls, not ensuring fall interventions were implemented, not implementing effective fall interventions for residents experiencing multiple falls, and not providing adequate supervision for high risk fall residents who required increased supervision. This failure applied to two (R122 and R274) of four residents reviewed for falls and resulted in R274 sustaining a left femur fracture. Findings include: R274 is a [AGE] year-old male who originally admitted on [DATE] and currently resides in the facility. R274 has multiple diagnoses including but not limited to the following: left femur fracture, respiratory failure, CHF, COPD, need for assistance with personal care, unsteadiness on feet, difficulty in walking, and HTN. Per hospital discharge records dated 1/27/23, R274 was admitted to the skilled nursing side of the facility from assisted living due to weakness and gait abnormalities secondary to COVID-19 pneumonia. Per facility incident report dated 2/10/23 states in part but not limited to the following: Assisted living nurse reported that resident was found in front of his former room in assisted living lying on the floor. Writer immediately went to check on resident, noted resident lying on left side. Assisted to wheelchair with two staff. Asked resident what happened, I was trying to get my keys to open the door and I lost my balance. Noted skin tear on left knee and verbalized pain on the left hip. Resident sent out to hospital with the paramedics. Mobility: ambulatory with assistance. Summarize the post-fall findings: Resident lost his balance while opening his assisted living room. Left the skilled unit without notifying staff. New fall prevention interventions to be implemented as a result of the assessment: notify staff if needing to leave the unit. Per hospital records with admission date of 2/10/23 show R274 was admitted with a left hip fracture. On 5/15/23 at 10:15AM, it was observed that R274's room is down the hall, multiple rooms away from the nursing station. On 05/17/23 at 10:23AM, V6 (Registered Nurse/RN) was interviewed regarding R274's functional status and care. V6 said R274 was a previous resident of our assisted living side and came here for therapy. R274 is currently in a wheelchair and can move independently in his wheelchair. He needs assistance with ambulating and transferring because he is unsteady. He does attempt to get up unassisted especially when he needs to go to the bathroom. We try and keep him in a common area because he needs increased supervision. He has periods of confusion, and sometimes he's hard to understand. It is to be noted that R274 had a fall on 4/12/23 and 4/28/23 in his room. At 2:59PM, V3 (Director of Nursing/DON) was interviewed regarding R274 fall on 2/10/23. V3 said R274 ambulated with his walker to his old apartment on the assisted living side of the facility. The nurse covering the assisted living side found him on the floor outside of his old apartment. He walked off the unit without informing anyone or anyone noticing him. R274 is confused and forgetful and did need increased supervision at the time of his fall. The intervention put in place at this time was for R274 to notify the staff when leaving the unit.
