F 0578 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Few Honor the resident's right to request, refuse, and/or discontinue treatment, to participate in or refuse to participate in experimental research, and to formulate an advance directive. **NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on interview and record review, the facility failed to ensure that the provider order and care plan reflected the resident's wishes on the Provider Order for Life-Sustaining Treatment (POLST) form for one residents (R78) out of twenty-two total residents in the sample. Findings: On [DATE] at 12:57 PM the electronic medical record of R78 was reviewed. The Provider Order for Life-Sustaining Treatment (POLST) for R78 dated [DATE] stated: Section A: Do Not Attempt Resuscitation/Do Not Resuscitate (DNR). Section B: Selective Treatment: Primary goal of treating medical conditions with selected medical measures. In addition to treatment described in comfort-focused treatment, use medical treatment, intravenous (IV) fluids and IV medications (may include antibiotics and vasopressors) as medically appropriate and consistent with patient preference. Do not intubate. May consider less invasive airway support (e.g. CPAP, BiPAP) Transfer to hospital, if indicated. Generally avoid the intensive care unit. On [DATE] V30 (Physician) gave an order for DNR which was entered into R78's electronic health record. On [DATE] at 12:02 PM V23 (Director of Social Services) was interviewed and stated that upon resident admission, If a resident has a POLST and it is completed and signed by a physician, we implement it. V23 stated The directives in the POLST go in as a provider order and on the status bar. Part A would direct us to do cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) or not do CPR. V23 stated We don't document full treatment, selective treatment or comfort measures. Most Nurses would look at the document itself and read the POLST. V23 stated We don't differentiate selective or comfort care in the DNR order. V23 stated that if a resident's POLST stated Part A: DNR and Part B: Full treatment, We consider that a partial code and color code the paper chart in yellow as a partial code. Partial code means that if they have no pulse, we would not do compressions or rescue breathing. If the heart is still pumping and they may or may not be breathing, they would want mechanical ventilation, rescue breathing and send the resident off to the hospital. On [DATE] at 3:31 PM V2 (Director of Nursing) was interviewed and stated that if a resident has a POLST that in section A stated do not resuscitate (DNR) and section B stated selective treatment, the nurse would not do resuscitation. The nurse would call the doctor and tell the doctor that the resident has a DNR order and would carry out the doctor's orders. V2 was asked what a nurse would do if the resident had a partial code order and V2 stated I am not familiar with that code. V2 asked to check on that type of order and returned to the interview with V19 (Infection Prevention Nurse). V19 stated that the facility does not have a partial code order and then stated Can we have this evening to look into this and get back together tomorrow? V19 stated We shouldn't be accepting an order for a partial code. We need more detail. On [DATE] at 10:01 AM, V2 (Director of Nursing) and V19 (Infection Control Nurse) were interviewed. V19 stated The POLST form is uploaded into the resident's chart. Social Services Department is responsible for getting that information from the resident. The order is then put in the chart. Do not resuscitate (DNR) is entered into the electronic health record if Section A of the POLST states DNR. For Section B, the nurses should 'ideally' look at the POLST if something happens to see if there is any specific changes such as comfort care, special instructions, or specifics like don't do compressions or give me oxygen. I am not going to lie. I don't know if they always do that.

F 0578 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Few spoke to Administration about this last night. We don't have a good process. We should not be using the term partial code. V19 stated that the facility should have a way to enter the orders specific to Section B of a POLST form. V19 stated that the facility plans to work with the electronic health system vendor to see what options for POLST order entry are available. V19 stated For now, we are going to educate the staff and set expectation that they have to look at the POLST if there is an emergency with a resident. That is where we get lost. We don't have a process. Policy entitled Advance Directives revision date [DATE] stated in part: Standard: Facility will remain in compliance with Illinois state law regarding advance directives. Policy and Procedure: 1. Social services will review what/if any advance directives are in place. 2. If the desired advanced directives are in place, they are uploaded to the resident chart and a paper copy placed in resident hard chart. 6. The resident and/or representative is made aware they may modify their advance directives at any time. 7. These documents will be revised and discussed with the physician.

F 0657 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Develop the complete care plan within 7 days of the comprehensive assessment; and prepared, reviewed, and revised by a team of health professionals. Based on observations, interviews, and record reviews, the facility failed to follow physician orders and update a resident's (R14) care plan for one resident out of a total sample of 22 residents. Residents Affected - Few Findings include: R14's Order Summary Report documents in part: Regular diet Regular texture, Regular / thin consistency, for 1:1 assist. Order date and start date listed as 4/17/2024. R14's care plan documents in part that R14 is at risk for alteration in nutrition related to diagnosis of cellulitis, blindness, chronic kidney disease, hyperlipidemia, gastroesophageal reflux disease, small bowel obstruction, metabolic encephalopathy, and significant, unplanned weight loss (last revised 5/28/2024). Intervention last revised 5/28/2024 documents in part to provide necessary assistance at mealtimes and between meals. R14's care plan also documents in part that R14 has an activities of daily living self-care performance deficit due to decreased activities of daily living, decreased functional transfers and balance, deceased activity intolerance, left eye blindness with right eye visual impairment (last revised 5/29/2024). Intervention regarding 'EATING' documents in part that it was not updated to reflect 4/17/2024 order for 1:1 assist. On 6/11/2024 at 12:11 PM, R14 ate lunch alone at a table in the dining room. During multiple observations at 12:17 PM, 12:21 PM, and 12:28 PM, surveyor observed R14 eating without staff assistance. On 6/12/2024 at 11:10 AM, R14 stated staff do not sit with or assist R14 during meals. R14 stated [R14] eats without staff assistance most of the time. At 12:15 PM, R14 sat alone at a table in the dining room. V15 (Certified Nurse Aide) dropped off R14's lunch tray, provided set up help, and left to get back into tray line. Observed R14 during entirety of lunch meal (R14 completed lunch at 12:31 PM). No staff provided one-to-one assistance to R14. At 12:33 PM, V16 (Certified Nurse Aide) stated [V16] takes care of R14 about three times a week. V16 stated staff do not provide one-to-one meal assistance to R14. At 12:36 PM, surveyor showed V17 (Nurse) R14's active diet order. V17 stated 1:1 assist stands for one-to-one assist. V17 was not sure why R14 required one-to-one assistance with meals. At 12:39 PM, surveyor showed V10 (Nurse) R14's active diet order. V10 stated 1:1 assist means one staff must feed the resident. V10 was not sure why R14 was on one-to-one assistance with meals. At 3:09 PM V29 (Nurse) stated entering the 1:1 assist after R14 returned from the hospital. V29 stated the order was either on the hospital discharge papers or through verbal report. V29 stated the order was for R14 to be fed by one staff. Reviewed R14's admission Telephone Report dated 4/17. It documents in part that V28 (Nurse) took the verbal report from the hospital staff. At 3:24 PM, surveyor reviewed the document with V28. V28 stated writing need 1:1 assist for feeding order because the hospital staff reported it as R14's order at the hospital and it was the recommended order for discharge back to the facility.

F 0686 orders as of 6/12/24 documents Air mattress in place. Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm On 6/12/24 at 10:59, interviewed V22 (Wound Care Nurse/Restorative Nurse Supervisor) and stated that for residents who are dependent with staff for turning and repositioning in bed, they are placed on an air loss mattress to prevent them from developing pressure ulcer. V22 stated that if a resident is in bed, the low air loss mattress should be always turned on. V22 stated that the purpose of the low air loss mattress is to relieve pressure on the bony prominences that would help prevent pressure wounds. V22 stated that if the low air loss mattress' setting is too high it would be too hard and if it's too low, they'll sink and the resident would not get the benefits of the mattress. V22 stated that R1, R61, R63, and R90 are at risk in developing pressure ulcers due to their impaired mobility. Residents Affected - Some On 6/12/24 at 11:07 AM, interviewed V21 and stated that the low air loss mattress should be set based on the current weight of the resident. V21 stated that linens to use for the low air loss mattress should be just a flat sheet or one non-disposal incontinence pad and cannot be both. The facility's policy titled; Low Air-Loss Mattress with no date documents in part: To maintain skin integrity and promote wound healing of existing pressure ulcers.

F 0688 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Few Provide appropriate care for a resident to maintain and/or improve range of motion (ROM), limited ROM and/or mobility, unless a decline is for a medical reason. **NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on observation, interview and record review, the facility failed to apply splint and complete quarterly restorative assessments that detail the progress or lack of progress in the restorative services for 1 (R61) out of 1 resident reviewed for limited range of motion and restorative services in the final sample of 22. Findings Include: On 6/11/24 at 11:07 AM, R61 was sleeping in bed. Surveyor noted R61 has both hands contractures, and no assistive devices/splints were in place. On 6/12/24 at 2:23 PM, interviewed V22 (Wound Care Nurse/Restorative Nurse Supervisor) and stated that R61 is on active and passive range of motion restorative programs. V22 stated that R61 is supposed to have a splint for the contracted hand. V22 stated, I forgot which hand. [R61] should always have it every day except during incontinence care or when bathing. Restorative assessment should be completed quarterly. Surveyor and V22 reviewed R61's electronic health records (EHR) and found that the last restorative assessment completed for R61 was in 8/1/23. There was no documentation found in R61's records that details R61's progress or lack of progress in the restorative services. V22 stated that it was a while that the facility had no full time restorative nurse. On 6/12/24 at 2:50 PM, interviewed V27 (MDS Coordinator) and stated that R61 has physical limitations with R61's hands. V27 stated that R61 is a feeder and on restorative programs that are addressed in the care plan. V27 stated that restorative assessments should be completed quarterly. R61's Minimum Data Set, dated [DATE] shows R61 has impaired cognitive skills, has functional limitation in range of motion on one side of R61's upper extremity, and is dependent of staff with activities of daily living (ADL). R61's ADL care plan shows that R61 is on restorative programs: bed mobility, dressing/grooming, and active range of motion. R61's physician orders with active orders as of 6/11/24 shows an order that reads, Remove right hand resting splint at bedtime. The facility's Restorative Policy dated 1/12/24 reads in part: Policy & Procedure: 1. The facility shall ensure that Restorative Care approaches and principles aimed at preventing deterioration or maintaining a resident's functional level ad quality of life are integrated into the home programs and individual care plans of all residents. 2.

F 0692 Level of Harm - Actual harm Residents Affected - Few through communications from the nursing staff. In addition, monthly weight charts should be monitored closely for weight loss trends. Prior to initiation of a nutrition intervention, weight change should be validated by a reweight. Once actual loss/gain has been established and determined to be a nutritional concern, a nutrition reassessment/progress note is completed. The resident should be placed on weekly weights and monitored for one month until the weight change is resolved. Facility's Weights and Heights, last revised 10/06/2011, documents in part: Monthly weights will be completed by the 10th weekday of each month. Staff to request assistance if needed for completion. If there is a weight discrepancy the resident will be reweighed to ensure accuracy. Monthly weights will be documented on weight flow sheet. 3. R61's electronic health records (EHR) show an admission date of 5/1/20. R61's Minimum Data Set, dated [DATE] shows R61 has impaired cognitive skills and requires substantial/maximal assistance with eating. R61's weight records show the following readings: 5/31/24 134.0 pounds, 4/24/24 135.0 pounds, 2/26/24 133.0 pounds, 12/2/23 145.0 pounds, and 11/26/23 144.0 pounds. No weights were obtained in January and March 2024. R61's weights show R61 had a 12 pounds weight loss from 12/2/23 to 2/26/24. R61's records do not show any documentation that R61's weight loss was recognized, evaluated, and addressed. R61 was evaluated by V33 (Registered Dietician) not until 5/2/24 and did not address the weight loss. On 6/12/24 at 11:52 AM, a phone interview was conducted with V13 (Regional Nutrition Director). V13 stated that R61's January and March weights are missing. V13 stated that the December and February weights show a significant weight loss and that should have been triggered and should have been addressed by the Dietician. V13 stated that V13 was not the consultant that was in the facility at that time and does not know if the weight loss was referred to a Dietician. V13 stated that V13 does not see any notes or assessment completed addressing the weight loss. V13 stated that an annual assessment was done on 5/2/24 and the last progress notes was in September 2023. V13 stated, I don't see any further interventions were put into place addressing the weight loss. V13 stated V13 would benefit for a nutritional supplement that would increase R61's calories and protein intake. V13 stated that it would at least maintain R61's weight. V13 stated that the goal is for R61 to have no more weight loss. Based on interviews and record reviews, the facility failed to obtain monthly weights and recognize, evaluate, and address weight loss for three (R17, R66, and R61) residents out of a total sample of 22 residents. This failure resulted in R17 having a 15.7 percent decrease in weight in six months between 12/4/2023 (121 pounds) and 6/4/2024 (102 pounds). Findings include: 1. On 6/11/2024 at 10:48 AM and at 1:26 PM, R17 was observed sleeping in bed with an intravenous (IV) in the left hand and 0.9 percent Dextrose with Sodium Chloride running at a rate of eighty milliliters per hour. On 06/11/24 at 2:47 PM V9 (Registered Nurse) stated that R17 felt weak, threw up and had diarrhea the morning of 6/11/2024. R17's blood pressure was also low. V9 called the doctor who ordered intravenous (IV) fluid. R17 was interviewed and stated that she was dizzy the morning of 6/11/2024. R17 stated I don't like the food here.

R17 had a 7.85 percent weight loss and an 8.4 pound weight loss in one month between 3/16/2024 (107 pounds) and 4/14/2024 (98.6 pounds). R17 had a 15.7 percent decrease in weight in six months between 12/4/2023 (121 pounds) and 6/4/2024 (102 pounds). On 6/12/2024 at 10:05 AM V12 (Registered Dietician) was interviewed and stated that facility policy is that residents are weighed monthly. The facility has a weekly Nutrition-At-Risk meeting. The purpose of the meeting is to discuss any weight concerns or any other nutrition concerns that staff may have about a resident. Residents are discussed at the Nutrition-At-Risk meeting if the resident is newly admitted , is readmitted to the facility, or if nursing staff, dietary staff, the resident, or the family have concern about the resident's weight or nutritional status. If there are concerns about a resident's weight or nutritional status, V12 stated we then get weekly weights. Weekly weights are documented in the weight section of the electronic health record. V12 stated that she would be concerned about a resident's weight if there was a five percent decrease in one month, a seven and a half percent decrease in three months or a ten percent decrease in six months. V12 stated that if there was a concern about a resident's weight or nutritional status, V12 would assess the resident's food intake, supplement intake, diet order, any concerns about fluid retention and any use of diuretics. V12 would also speak to the resident, physician, and nursing staff to assess for any change in the resident's medical status or food intake. V12 stated that she speaks to the resident about food preferences and the possible need for supplements. Sometimes V12 encourages family to bring food in if that might be helpful. V12 considers appetite stimulants and if there are any chewing or swallowing issues, V12 considers a diet change. V12 reviewed R17's dietary progress note dated 2/24/2024 and stated that the resident had a weight warning because of significant weight loss at three and six months. The plan was for weekly weights and to continue same diet. V12 stated that R17 was again seen by the dietician on 3/16/2024. At that time, R16 continued weekly weights and R17's weight was trending back up. There was a concern about a weight that was low and that she was not eating all three meals a day. V12 reviewed R17's weights documented in the electronic health record. V12 stated the weekly weights were not documented. V12 stated There was significant weight loss in April. It doesn't look like anything was documented on that significant weight loss of 107 pounds on 3/23/2024 to 98.6 pounds on 4/14/2024. It also looks like the weight of 105 pounds on 5/9/2024, 102.6 pounds on 5/23/2024 and 102 pounds on 6/4/2024 triggered in the electronic health record as a significant weight loss, but no dietary assessment was completed. V12 stated that R17 should have had a dietary assessment after the 4/14/2024 weight of 98.6 pounds. V12 stated R17 is due for her quarterly assessment. She is on my list today so I will be seeing her. There may not have been follow up on R17's weight loss because there were several dieticians who were covering the Dietician position; some part time and some remotely, before V12 was hired. V12 stated now knowing that R17 has this weight loss, I will do her assessment today. On 6/11/2024 at 3:30 PM, the dietary progress note of R17 written by V20 (Dietician) dated 2/24/2024 was read and stated in part: Weight review/weight warning: 105 pounds.
