Findings include: On 04/16/24 at 11:30 AM, R45 stated R45 goes out to dialysis three times a week on Monday-Wednesday-Friday. R45 stated they don't send me to dialysis with a meal or snack. R45 stated R45 usually leaves the facility at 10:00 AM and returns between 4:30-5:00 PM. R45 stated on dialysis days R45 eats breakfast and dinner at the facility. R45 stated R45 does not eat lunch or anything in between breakfast and dinner on dialysis days because the facility does not send him to dialysis with a sack lunch or snacks. R45 stated by the time R45 returns to the facility after dialysis it is time for dinner. R45 complains about being hungry on dialysis days because R45 eats breakfast around 8:00 AM and then does not consume anything else until 5:00 PM when dinner is served. R45 stated they hold R45's lunch but that by the time R45 returns to the facility it is already time for dinner. R45 stated R45's dialysis center allows people to eat before or after dialysis because R45 sees other people eating food there. R45 stated if the facility sent him to dialysis with food that would be good. On 04/16/24 at 12:01 PM, V11 (Licensed Practical Nurse) stated R45 eats breakfast before R45 leaves for dialysis and that R45 is not sent to dialysis with any sack lunch or snacks. On 04/17/24 at 9:25 AM, observed R29 sitting in a wheelchair waiting by the nursing station on the 1st floor. R29 stated R29 is waiting for R29's transportation to dialysis. R29 stated R29 is usually out of the facility on dialysis days between 9:00 AM and 3:00-4:00 PM depending on the transportation schedule. R29 stated the facility does not give R29 a lunch or any snacks to take to dialysis.

F 0684 the facility for so long. R29 said, I get hungry. Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm On 4/17/24 at 9:28 AM, observed R40 sitting in a wheelchair waiting by the nursing station on the 1st floor. R40 stated R40 is waiting for R40's transportation to take R40 to dialysis. R40 stated on dialysis R40 usually leaves between 9:00-9:30 AM and returns between 3:30-4:00 PM. R40 stated R40 is not given any food to take with R40 to dialysis. R40 stated sometimes R40 gets hungry, and no one has ever asked R40 if R40 wanted a snack to take with R40 to dialysis. R40 stated, I'd like that. Residents Affected - Some On 04/17/24 at 9:31 AM, R101 stated R101 receives dialysis Tuesday-Thursday-Saturday and usually leaves the building between 9:30 AM-10:00 AM and returns around 4:00 PM. R101 stated R101 eats breakfast before R101 leaves for dialysis and then eats dinner when R101 returns. R101 stated if the facility sent R101 with food to dialysis R101 would eat it because R101 gets hungry. R101 said, they never offered any food to me, so I didn't know that was possible. On 04/17/24 at 12:29 PM, V26 (Consulting Registered Dietitian) stated the menus provide approximately 2000-2200 calories, and 6 ounces of protein per day and that this is based on residents receiving three meals per day. V26 stated sack lunches are available if a resident goes out to an appointment or dialysis depending on the timing. V26 stated the dialysis centers are requesting for us not to send sack lunches because they cannot eat the meal while they are on the dialysis machine, so the facility stopped sending sack lunches or snacks with residents going to dialysis. V26 stated residents eat breakfast at their regular time before leaving for dialysis and receive a late lunch when they return to the building. V26 stated the dinner is served at 5:00 PM so if a resident is returning from dialysis around 3:30-4:00 PM that is very close to the dinner meal. V26 stated when a resident is out of the building for dialysis, they are usually out of the building for approximately 6 hours. This includes the 4-5 hour run time for dialysis and transportation to/from which is variable. V26 stated dialysis residents are at higher nutritional risk for not getting enough calories, and protein. V26 stated their appetites can vary depending how they are feeling, and they are on restricted diets which limits their food options, so the focus is on just getting them to eat because residents receiving dialysis need more calories and protein. V26 stated if residents on dialysis are missing a meal the potential is that they may not be meeting their nutritional needs for the day. On 04/17/24 at 2:42 PM, V35 (Dialysis Registered Dietitian) stated via phone interview that residents on dialysis have compromised immune systems and are at higher nutritional risk. V35 stated residents on dialysis have unique needs because they have an entire organ that is not functioning and because their kidneys are not working, they have to be on restricted therapeutic diets, so the challenge is to make sure their nutritional needs are being met within those dietary restrictions. V35 stated the dialysis center strongly encourage the patients not to eat while they are receiving dialysis. V35 stated while they discourage patients from eating during their dialysis treatment it would be okay for residents to eat before or after receiving dialysis especially if they are complaining about being hungry. V35 stated oftentimes there is a lot of waiting around time whether that be when waiting for dialysis to start or when waiting for transportation which would give the residents time to eat something. V35 stated the dialysis center gives out supplements if a resident's albumin drops <3.5 and if this is the case, then they are eligible for protein bar supplement or liquid protein supplement. V35 stated R45's albumin level is 4.0. R45's diagnosis included but not limited to, End Stage Renal Disease, Dependence on Renal Dialysis, Secondary Hyperparathyroidism Of Renal Origin, Iron Deficiency Anemia, Generalized Muscle Weakness, Hypertension, Cardiac Tamponade, Malignant Neoplasm of Prostate.

On 04/16/24 at 11:24 AM upon entering R56 room R56 was observed lying in bed on a low air mattress with the upper body appearing to be sunken into the mattress. The low air loss mattress knob was set between 180 and 210 pounds. On 04/16/24 at 02:36 PM surveyor entered R56 room with V11 (Licensed Practical Nurse). Surveyor asked V11 the setting on R56 low air loss mattress. V11 responded, it is set on 160. The top part of R56 body is sunken into the mattress. Something has to be going on with that. V11 proceeded to turn off the low air loss mattress, detach then reattach a cord then turn the low air loss mattress back on with no change noted with the mattress inflation. On 04/17/24 at 09:53 AM upon entering R56 room R56 was observed on a low air loss mattress set at 120 lying on her left side, facing door.

I was messing with the low air loss mattress because I was trying to get it to inflate. When I went in there the bed appeared to be deflated and I tried to get it inflated, that is why we got R56 up. We changed R56 low air loss mattress yesterday and switched it out. On 04/17/24 at 10:47 AM V10 (Licensed Practical Nurse) stated something was wrong with R56 bed all day yesterday (04/16/24). On 04/18/24 at 10:00 AM V3 (Director of Nursing) stated If there is a person that we deem need a low air loss mattress, the purpose is for preventive measures if the resident is at risk for wounds or if there is a wound already. If the low air loss mattress malfunctions there is no air or distribution of weight. The resident will be sunken in the mattress, that can create another issue and we need to reorder a low air loss mattress. Policy: Titled Pressure Ulcer/Injury Risk Assessment Tool & Documentation dated 01/19 document in part: The purpose of this procedure is to provide guidelines for the structured assessment and identification of residents at risk of developing pressure ulcers/injuries and related documentation. 2. Risk factors that increase a resident's susceptibility to develop or to not heal PU/PIs (pressure ulcer/pressure injuries) include, but are not limited to: c. The presence of previously healed pressure ulcer/injuries (Areas of healed Stage 3 or 4 PU/PIs are more likely to have recurrent breakdown). Titled Low Air Loss Mattress revised 08/21 document in part; Purpose: To provide features of a mattress support system that provides a flow of air to assist in managing heat and humidity (microclimate) of the skin. 3. The lo air loss mattress will be checked on a regular basis to ensure that all cells of the mattress are functioning appropriately. When the low-pressure alarm sounds, the pressure inside the air mattress body is abnormal. 6. Low air loss mattress pressure will be set to the resident's weight. Titled Braden Risk Prevention Measures revised 11/13 document in part: 7. If score is 10-12, the resident is considered high risk.

F 0692 Provide enough food/fluids to maintain a resident's health. Level of Harm - Actual harm Based on observation, interview and record review, the facility failed to follow their policy to maintain acceptable parameters of nutritional status as evidenced by an unrecognized significant weight loss, failed to serve food desired by a resident and failed to care plan weight loss for one resident (R57) in a sample of 26 total residents. This failure resulted in R57 experiencing a 17% weight loss that was not recognized and addressed by the facility. Residents Affected - Few Findings: On 04/16/24 at 12:30 PM, R57 was observed in his wheelchair in dining room. V16 (CNA) presented lunch and said that it was a cheeseburger.

V26 stated that she has worked at the facility for 6 years. V26 works once a week / thirty-two hours a month. V26's process for evaluating residents includes seeing any high risk residents which V26 described as residents with tube feedings, TPN, bed sores and anyone that the staff ask V26 to see. V26 runs reports out of the electronic health record such as the diet report, enteral feeding report and wound rounding report. V26 meets weekly with the multidisciplinary team which V26 described as the restorative nurse, administrator, director of nursing, corporate nurse, corporate lawyer and corporate wound nurse. The multidisciplinary team meets virtually and usually on Friday of each week. V26 stated that nurses do not have specific criteria which would require a consult to V26. The dietary manager reviews weight loss and communicates to V26 any residents who triggered concern about weight loss. V26 described a weight loss concern as a five percent weight loss within one month or a ten percent weight loss within six months. V26 stated that if there was a weight loss, the actions would include an assessment and documentation in the electronic health record, discussion with the resident or resident representative to understand possible causes or concerns, and that the issue would be addressed at the multidisciplinary meeting on Friday. V26 would also speak with staff to understand the cause of the weight loss. V26 stated that V26 relies on staff to understand what is going on with the resident and what is triggering the weight loss. V26 reviewed the list of residents on the third floor who V26 had concerns about relative to weight loss. R57 was not on that list. When asked if each resident with weight loss would have a care plan specific to the weight loss, V26 stated that V26 is not involved in minimum data set documentation or care planning. When V26 was asked about R57, V26 stated that He pulled up on my report for this month. I had not seen him previously . Yes, he has a loss. She described R57's weight loss as 17% loss between November 2023 and March 2024. V26 stated Actions should have been taken. V26 reviewed the care plan and stated I see a care plan, but it has nothing to do anything .The dietary care plan only says his diet and that he has cardiovascular disease .When there was a 17% weight loss in March, he should have been seen by me to figure out what is going on. During Interview with V3 (Director of Nursing) on 4/18/2024 at 8:57 AM, V3 stated that the restorative team takes residents' weights every month. The Restorative Nurse, Director of Nursing, Dietician, Wound Care Nurse, nurse consultant, corporate lawyer and wound care consultant meet weekly on Friday at 12:30 PM to discuss wounds and any resident changes, resident weights, or whether a resident would benefit from supplements. It is everyone's responsibility to identify a weight change. That means that the floor nurse will raise a concern if there is a change in a resident's eating. The restorative nurse will raise any concern about weight loss. V26 (Dietician) will then evaluate the situation and chart about any changes. If a weight changes, the physician is notified because the doctor may want to change something in the orders. The initial care plan begins upon admission. The Nurse doing the admission starts the care plan. The MDS Coordinator will then go an fix it, personalize it. Each department does their own care plan. MDS Coordinator does the nursing care plans. During a clinical meeting each morning care plans are discussed. If V3 does not see something in the care plan, she will notify the MDS coordinator.

F 0692 resident and family. Level of Harm - Actual harm During interview with V33 (Minimum Data Set (MDS) coordinator) on 4/18/2024 at 9:36 AM, V33 described the process of care planning and MDS documentation. When the resident is admitted , V33 looks at the paperwork from the transferring facility and puts the diagnoses into PCC. V33 introduces herself to the resident within 24-48 hours. V33 uses day eight as the admission assessment date and alerts all departments of the assessment reference date. V33 then starts the care plan process based on the diagnoses and documents from the sending facility. V33 develops the care plans, and the Social Services Department notifies the family to schedule a care plan meeting. All departments are involved in the care plan process including restorative, therapy, nursing, dietary, social services. V33 stated that she reviews information in PCC every day. V33 looks at every resident's twenty-four-hour report from nursing which includes any admissions, discharges, any changes in provider orders, antibiotic initiation, room changes or any change in condition. Weight change is not included in that report. V33 stated that she would be aware of a change in resident weight by getting ready for quarterly. V33 stated that she bases her MDS coding on progress notes or assessments. V33 would not code a weight change in MDS if the only documentation was the documented weight and there was no nursing note or dietician note in the electronic health record. V33 reviewed the MDS of R57 dated 3/5/2024. Section K stated no weight loss. V33 stated that if she had looked at R57's weight, she would have used the 2/28/2024 weight of 149.6 pounds to determine weight loss, but V33 would still have wanted to see a note from the Dietician or Dietary Manager before documenting a weight change in MDS. V33 stated that if she is not sure about coding, V33 can reach out to the Restorative Nurse. If V33 sees a weight that V33 is concerned about, V33 reaches out to the restorative nurse and asks for a reweight. If it is a big change in weight, V33 would suggest doing weekly weights. V33 stated that the Restorative Nurse is out sick and V33 is not sure who is covering for her while she is out. Residents Affected - Few On 4/17/2024 at 3:27 PM, record review included a note from V26 dated 4/17/2024 at 14:11 which stated in part: Resident needs assistance from staff to complete meals.
