Allow residents to self-administer drugs if determined clinically appropriate.
Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on observation, interview, and record review, the facility failed to assess, care plan and obtain physician orders for 2 of 12 residents (R27 and R22) to self-administer medications in the sample of 12 residents reviewed for medication safety.
Residents Affected - Few
The findings include: 1. On 3/3/25 at 10:22 AM, R27 showed surveyor a box of lidocaine patches (medicated pain patches) in her bedside stand. R27 said she uses them on her right hip for pain. R27 also showed surveyor her inhaler and said the facility gave her both medications to use. R27's admission Record dated 3/5/25 shows she is a [AGE] year old resident admitted to the facility on [DATE]. R27's Order Summary Report dated 3/3/25 shows an order for Aspercreme Lidocaine External Patch 4% (Lidocaine) apply to lower back topically one time a day for pain, on in AM and off at bedtime. May keep in room and remove per schedule, but it does not show an order for R27 to self-administer any of her medications. On 3/3/25 at 10:19 AM, V2, Director of Nursing (DON), said there are no residents in the facility with orders or an assessment to self-administer their medications. V2 said if a resident wants to self-administer medications, the facility needs to complete an assessment to make sure they can safely perform self-administering of medications, they need an order from the resident's physician, and the care plan needs to reflect the medication self-administration plan. The facility was unable to provide a medication self-administration assessment for R27. 2. R22's admission Record showed R22 is a [AGE] year old, cognitively intact resident admitted to the facility on [DATE] with diagnoses which include: chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and congestive heart failure. On 3/3/25 at 10:40 AM, R22 was sitting up in bed with the bedside table across R22 and the bed. R22 had an inhaler sitting on the bedside table. R22 stated she needed the inhaler to take a couple of puffs when she gets short of breath and would not have to wait for the nurse to bring it. On 3/4/25 at 10:35 AM, V2 Director of Nursing stated there were no residents at the facility who self-administer any medications. A resident needs an assessment and a physician's orders to be able to self-administer medications. R22's Physician Order Sheet printed on 3/3/25 showed R22 having an order for an Albuterol Sulfate

Honor the resident's right to a safe, clean, comfortable and homelike environment, including but not limited to receiving treatment and supports for daily living safely.
Based on observation, interview, and record review the facility failed to ensure the resident shower room was clean, comfortable, and homelike and failed to ensure hot water was available in resident bathrooms. This applies to all 35 residents residing at the facility. The findings include: The facility's Long Term Care Facility Application for Medicare and Medicaid (CMS 671) dated 3/3/25 shows there is a resident census of 35. 1. On 3/4/25 at 9:31 AM, in the resident shower room V3 Certified Nursing Assistant pointed out the drain in the floor. The drain was uncovered with a hole exposed (the size of a softball) in the center of the shower room floor, under the shower head. V3 stated this morning I gave a shower and the wheel of the wheelchair got stuck in the drain. Look at this room! The tiles are missing and some tiles tape to hold them up. On 3/4/25 at 1:19 PM, R8 stated I've been here for 9 years and every year I complain about shower room. It was really pretty bad. This is a little better than before. It is still bad though, the walls have holes, tiles are missing, but it is the only place for showers, so I have had to live with it. On 3/5/25 at 9:00 AM, V4 Licensed Practical Nurse said there is only one shower room for all the residents. On 3/5/25 at 9:02 AM, the resident shower room had tiles missing along 3 walls by the floor. One wall on the left side of the room (when standing in the doorway), had exposed wood framing in several areas. One exposed was half covered with a plastic piece of material. Multiple areas on all walls had tiles pushed in. A large area of tiles around the faucet were pushed in and heavily caulked. There were rolled towels on floor to keep water from going out the door and along the left wall. The wall the door was on had tiles held in place with black duct tape. On 3/5/25 at 3:00 PM, V1 Administrator said they are aware of the shower room. The facility's Resident Council Minutes dated 6/18/2024 shows showers need updated. The Facility's Resident Rights for People in Long-Term Care Facilities Policy (from the Illinois Long-Term Care Ombudsman Program shows Your facility must be safe, clean, comfortable and homelike. 2. On 3/3/25 at 10:08 AM, R29 said there is no hot water in his bathroom. R29 said it freezes in the winter even if they let the water run all night, it never gets warm. After running the hot water continually for two minutes in R29's bathroom sink, the water never got any warmer and still felt cold to the touch. On 3/3/25 at 1:55 PM, R29 and R10's bathroom sink water ran for two minutes. All temperatures taken during this investigation were obtained using a calibrated, digital thermometer. The cold tap water was 65 degrees Fahrenheit (F), and the hot tap water was 55 degrees F.

Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on observation, interview, and record review the facility failed to ensure a resident was assessed for the use of a restraint which applies to 1 of 1 resident (R20) reviewed for restraints in a sample of 12.
Residents Affected - Few The findings include: R20's admission Record printed on 3/5/25 showed R20 as a [AGE] year old cognitively impaired female resident with diagnoses which includes autistic disorder and Downs syndrome. On 3/3/25 at 8:45 AM, R20 was sitting in a wheelchair with a restraint vest on near the nurse's station. The vest had a strap with a clip on each corner of the vest. One strap went on either side of R20's head and the other 2 straps went under R20's armpits to fasten to the back of the chair. On 3/4/25 at 12:35 PM, R20 was sitting in a recliner in a common area near the nurse's station. R20 started having behaviors, which included pushing over a bedside table, and lashing out towards staff. Staff escorted R20 to her room. At 1:40 PM, V3 Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA) brought R20 out of her room in her wheelchair with the harness in place. R20's physician orders showed no order for a wheelchair harness. R20's medical record showed no restraint assessment completed since admission on [DATE]. On 3/4/25 at 1:55 PM, V3 stated R20 can move the top 2 straps over their head so the harness is only around her waist. V3 stated they thought R20 was able to unbuckle the clips at her sides. V3 stated when R20 is having behaviors she is an increased fall risk. On 3/5/25 at 10:35 AM, V2 Director of Nursing stated V3 had not had a restraint assessment since her admission. On 3/5/25 at 10:55 AM, V10 CNA stated they had not seen R20 ever undo the harness herself. V10 stated we (care staff) are the ones who undo the harness when R20 needs to get in and out of the chair. The facility did not provide a restraint policy prior to exiting the survey.

Based on observation, interview, and record review the facility failed to ensure interventions were placed when a pressure injury was identified and failed to ensure treatments and pressure reducing interventions were in place for 2 of 3 residents (R33, R21) reviewed for pressure in the sample of 12. This failure resulted in R33 sustaining a stage 3 pressure injury to her coccyx.
Residents Affected - Few
The findings include: 1. On 3/3/25 at 10:15 AM, R33 was in bed sleeping. R33's air mattress was deflated, and R33 was laying on the bed frame. The air mattress controller said standby. Heel protection boots were observed in R33's wheelchair in the room. At 10:19 AM, V3 Certified Nursing Assistant came into the room and said the air mattress controller was not supposed to say standby. V3 tried to un-plug and re-plug the unit and the mattress did not inflate. V3 looked at the control unit again and discovered the unit was turned off. V3 turned on the unit, and the mattress inflated. V3 said the mattress needs to be turned on in order to relieve pressure and R33 is supposed to have the heel protection boots on when in bed. On 3/4/25 at 9:46 AM, V2 Director of Nursing said the floor nurses do weekly skin assessments and complete a progress note if there is a skin issue. V2 said the nurses are supposed to do an assessment with measurements, get treatment orders, and alert her if there is a wound. V2 said she checks the documented measurements and makes sure the doctor is contacted for treatment orders. V2 said, if necessary, the wound doctor can see them. R33's Skin/Wound Note dated 2/17/25 at 10:45 PM shows, Resident had shower this evening. Bilateral lower and upper (BL/UL) discolorations. Open sore on coccyx.

Will admit to wound care services. Area cleaned with wound cleanser. New treatment order from [V6] to cleanse wound with wound cleanser. Apply hydrocolloid sheet BID [twice per day] and PRN [as needed] for 30 days. On 3/4/25 at 1:52 PM, V2 said R33 has a facility acquired pressure injury. V2 said last Thursday (2/27/25) the Certified Nursing Assistants reported it to her after the wound was found while R33 was being changed. V2 said she looked at the wound and V6 was in the building, so she had him see R33. V2 said she was not aware that it was found on 2/17/25 according to the nurse progress note. V2 said the nurses should have notified her and got treatment orders. V2 said R33 has pressure reducing interventions including an air mattress and cushioned heel boots. V2 said the air mattress should be plugged in and the resident should not be laying on a deflated mattress. V2 said R33 should have her heel boots on when in bed. On 3/5/25 at 10:44 AM, V7 Licensed Practical Nurse said she was in training on 2/17/25 and recalled R33's open area but could not recall details of the wound. V7 said she did not take measurements, get treatment orders, or notify V2. On 3/5/25 at 2:25 PM, V6 Wound Physician said he saw R33 for the first time on 2/27/25 and was told they had found the wound that day. V6 said he classified the wound as a stage 3 pressure injury.

judgement of how the wound looked to him. V6 said he saw granulation tissue in the wound and it takes more than 48 hours for granulation tissue to evolve, it doesn't show up right away. V6 said he would expect without treatment, a wound would decline further. V6 said a wound would not improve on its own. V6 said lack of treatment and pressure reducing interventions would contribute to the wound worsening.
Residents Affected - Few R33's Most recent Braden Scale for Predicting Pressure Ulcer Risk (provided by the facility) dated 7/27/24 shows R33 is at high risk for pressure injury. R33's Initial Wound Evaluation and Management Summary by V6 is dated 2/27/25 and shows, Stage 3 Pressure Wound Sacrum Full Thickness, duration: >3 days, measuring 2.1 x 1.5 x 0.3 cm. Recommendations off-load wound, reposition per facility protocol, group 2 mattress. R33's Physician Orders for February 2025 do not contain wound treatment orders or pressure relieving interventions for R33's coccyx wound until 2/27/25.

R21's Wound Evaluation & Management Summary dated 1/23/25 shows R21 has a stage 2 pressure wound of her left, medial buttock (Site 10) with a duration greater than three days measuring 3.6 centimeters (cm) by 1.9 cm by 0.1 cm and is to receive wound treatment three times a week for 30 days. R21's Wound Evaluation & Management Summary dated 1/30/25 shows R21's Stage 2 pressure wound (Site 10) had increased in severity to a stage 3 pressure wound measuring 11.2 cm by 6.7 cm by 0.2 cm. R21's Treatment Administration Record (TAR) for 1/1/25 through 1/31/25 does not show any treatment scheduled for R21's pressure ulcer of her left, medial buttock. R21's current Order Summary Report for 1/20/25 through 3/31/25 and Order Summary Report for 1/20/25 through 3/31/25 for discontinued orders both show there are no orders for wound treatment of R21's pressure ulcer of her left, medial buttock from 1/23/25 through 2/5/25. On 3/4/25 at 1:52 PM, V2, Director of Nursing and Wound Care Nurse, said R21's pressure ulcer of her left medial buttock was identified when she was doing wound rounds with the Wound Care Physician, V6. On 3/5/25 at 10:19 AM, V2 said V6 does his progress notes of each resident wound right away after his wound rounds on Thursdays. V2 said she accesses V6's progress notes (Wound Evaluation & Manage Summary) and enters his treatment orders into their computer system and treatment orders are started the next day. On 3/5/25 at 2:22 PM, V6 said he would expect a wound to worsen/decline if wound treatment is not being provided. The facility's Assessment of Skin Alteration Policy dated 11/2017 shows residents with skin alteration will be assessed and treatment will be provided as ordered by the physician.

The findings include: 1. The CMS-671 document dated 3/3/25 showed the facility census was 35 residents. On 3/3/25 at 1:55 PM, the resident bathroom for rooms [ROOM NUMBERS] (shared bathroom) hot water temperature was 121.5 degrees Fahrenheit (F). An electronic calibrated thermometer was used for this reading. On 3/3/25 at 2:05 PM, the facility's hot water heater thermometer read 125 degrees Fahrenheit. The mixing valve thermometer read 120 degrees Fahrenheit. On 3/3/25 at 2:15 PM, V9 took rooms [ROOM NUMBERS]'s hot water temperature. The reading was 119.4 degrees (F). V9 stated the water temperature is high. V9 stated he was getting higher temperatures than that and turned down the hot water heater to 125 degrees about a week ago. V9 stated he called a local plumber to come out and look at the system. V9 stated they would get back to him after they returned from vacation. V9 stated he did not call any other plumbers after that. V9 stated the temperature for hot water should be around 110 degrees Fahrenheit. V9 Maintenance Director stated he believed the mixing valve was the problem. The mixing valve should be adding cold water to the hot water to bring it down to around 110 degrees to the resident rooms and facility. On 3/4/25 between 9:25 AM and 9:35 AM hot water temperatures were taken of the central hallway resident bathrooms. room [ROOM NUMBER]/103 was 117.9 (F), 102/104 116.7 (F), 105/107 115.4 (F), and 106/108 118.1 (F).
