F 0692 R37's 12/18/24 Dietary Meal Sheet for Breakfast documents mechanical soft diet with supplement three times daily. There is no documentation to provide an additional protein serving. Level of Harm - Actual harm Residents Affected - Few On 12/17/24 at 12:20 PM, R37 was sleeping in bed in her room. She appeared very thin with muscle wasting and orbital wasting. There was no meal tray in the room. On 12/18/24 at 8:50 AM, R37 was feeding herself French toast in the dining room with adaptive utensils. There was no nutritional supplement on R37's tray.

She stated she requested some information on weight loss from V14 a couple of weeks ago and has not yet received that information. On 12/19/24 at 9:55 AM, V2 stated she was unable to provide any documentation of meal or supplement intakes for R37, because the Facility's documentation is minimal. On 12/19/24 at 9:59 AM, V14 stated residents with weight loss are considered High Risk and are seen monthly, but she did not see R37 last month and was unaware R37 continued to lose weight or refuse nutritional supplements. She stated the Facility does not consistently track meal or supplement intakes for residents and would expect to be notified of significant weight losses between visits so they can be addressed. She stated she previously recommended adding double protein portions at meals for R37, but did not add that to the Action list for the Facility, so it was never implemented. On 12/19/24 at 10:45 AM, V4, Dietary Manager, stated R37 does not take nutritional supplements very well. V14 stated she was unsure if she had ever seen R37 in person, and her weight loss was significant over one and six months and would not be desirable. On 12/20/24 at 9:20 AM, V1, Administrator, and V2 stated this is a concern that will be addressed. On 12/20/24 at 9:00 AM, V21, Medical Director, stated he expects physician orders to be followed and supplements to be given as prescribed. The Facility's Nutrition (Impaired)/Unplanned Weight Loss - Clinical Protocol Policy revised 9/2012 documents, The nursing staff will monitor and document the weight and dietary intake of residents in a format which permits readily available comparisons over time. The threshold for significant unplanned and undesired weight loss will be based on the following criteria 1 month - 5% weight loss is significant; greater than 5% is severe. 3 months - 7.5% weight loss is significant; greater than 7.5% is severe. 6 months - 10% weight loss is significant; greater than 10% is severe. Strategies to increase a resident's intake of nutrients and calories may include fortification of foods (for example, protein added to mashed potatoes), increasing portion sizes at mealtimes, and providing between-meal snacks and/or nutritional supplementation. The Physician and staff will closely monitor residents who have been identified as having impaired nutrition or risk factors for developing impaired nutrition. Such monitoring may include: a. Evaluating the care plan to determine if the interventions are being implemented and whether they are effective in attaining the established nutritional and weight goals.
