Level of Harm - Minimal harm
or potential for actual harm
On 08/16/23 at 9:26 AM, V3 (DON/Director of Nursing) said the facility has been without a wound care
nurse since the end of June, beginning of July. V3 said R17 was here and had to go back to hospital for
surgery on her arm, she left on 8/9 and returned late on 8/10 and that is where the wound was identified as
a stage 2 pressure ulcer.
Residents Affected - Few
On 8/16/2023 at 11:48 PM, V20 (RN) showed surveyor R17's sacral wound. The dressing was ordered to
be changed every three days and was last changed on 8/15/2023. V20 didn't want to remove the dressing
but was able to open the dressing so the wound could be visualized. The wound was approximately 7 cm x
8 cm. V20 said as a nurse she needs to document what she sees when there is a skin condition, notify the
primary physician of the skin issue, carry out any orders given, and notify the wound care physician if the
primary physician gave a referral.
At 3:30 PM, V3 (DON) said when a resident develops a pressure ulcer, the nurse should measure, assess
and describe the wound, call the resident's PCP (Primary Care Physician) and get an order for treatment
and a referral to wound care. All this information should be documented in a progress note.
Facility provided a policy dated March 2023 titled, Skin Assessment that showed the facility policy is to
perform a full body skin assessment as part of our systemic approach to pressure injury prevention and
management 1. A full body assessment, or head to toe, skin assessment will be conducted by a licensed or
practical nurse on admission/readmission, daily for three days, and weekly thereafter. The assessment may
also be performed after a change of condition or after a newly identified pressure ulcer.

Ensure that feeding tubes are not used unless there is a medical reason and the resident agrees; and
provide appropriate care for a resident with a feeding tube.
Based on observation and interview the facility failed to ensure the correct placement of a gastrostomy tube
before administering medication and fluids through it.
Residents Affected - Few
This applies to 1 of 1 (R58) resident reviewed for gastrostomy tubes.
The findings include:
R58 was admitted to the facility 11/17/2021 with diagnoses including Parkinson's disease, unspecified
dementia severe, endocrine pancreatic insufficiency, spinal stenosis in cervical regions, dysphagia
according to his face sheet.
On 8/15/23 at 12:15 PM, V11 (LPN) R58's assigned nurse was observed during the scheduled medication
pass and gastrostomy tube (G-tube) feeding bolus to R58. R58 was in his room sitting upright in his
wheelchair, wearing a pullover-type shirt. V11 raised R58's shirt to expose the abdominal binder securing
R58's G-tube in place. The access end of the G-tube was noted clamped shut. V11 spoke to R58 and
opened the clamp and placed a 60 ml (milliliter) syringe into the G-tube and inserted 60 ml of water into the
tube using the syringe plunger to assist the fluid into the G-tube. V11 continued the medication
administration process using four 30 ml medication cups of individual medications and eight ounces of
R58's prescribed nutritional supplement. In between the instillations of medications and before and after the
nutritional supplement, V11 instilled water flushes into the G-tube. V11 commented during the process that
the medications had a difficult time passing through the G-tube. It was noted that at no time did V11 check
for bowel sounds or check for placement of the feeding tube before placing medications or the nutritional
supplement into the G-tube. When asked by the surveyor what the protocol was for administering
medication or fluids via a G-tube, V11 stated, I should have auscultated for air before I put anything into the
tube. I forgot. I did not even bring my stethoscope in with me.
On 08/15/23 at 1:05 PM, V3 (Director of Nursing) stated G-tube placement should be checked before
administering medications or fluids into the G-tube and that there were two correct ways to check for proper
placement of the G-tube. V3 stated the nurse should use a syringe and auscultate air and listen with a
stethoscope. V12 (RN/ Nurse Case Manager) who was present, added that checking for a residual of
stomach contents by aspirating the G-tube with the syringe was another process to ensure G-tube patency
and in the correct placement. V3 stated it was her expectation that the nurse check for proper placement of
the G-tube before administering anything into it.
R58s care plan showed a focus problem which documented R58 had a G-Tube for enteral feeding due to
oropharyngeal dysphagia (swallowing problems occurring with the mouth and or throat) and weight loss,
and showed an intervention, Check abdomen for bowel sounds, distention and feeding tube placement.
On 08/15/23 at 02:03 PM, R58's care plan showed a focus problem that (R58) had a G-tube for enteral
feeding due to oropharyngeal dysphagia (swallowing problems occurring the mouth and or throat) and
weight loss, and that (R58) .will have adequate nourishment and hydration via feeding tube. The
documented intervention stated, Check abdomen for bowel signs, distention and feeding tube placement.

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 provide Peripherally Inserted Central Catheter
(PICC) care. This applies to 1 of 1 resident (R42) in the sample of 20.
Residents Affected - Few
The finding included:
R42's EMR (Electronic Medical Record) showed R42 was admitted to the facility on [DATE] with diagnoses
that included intervertebral disc disorders with myopathy lumbar region, unspecified open wound lower
back and pelvis, and intraspinal abscess and granuloma. On 7/25/2023 R42 had an MRI (Magnetic
Resonance Imaging) which showed a spinal abscess that required R42 be sent back to the hospital for
medical treatment. R42 was to return to the facility and required IV (Intravenous) antibiotic. R42 returned to
the facility on 8/3/2023 with a PICC to right upper arm. The PICC became dislodged on 8/5/2023 and was
reinserted into the right arm. On 8/12/2023 the PICC became dislodged for a second time and was
reinserted into the left arm.
R42's MDS (Minimum Data Set) dated 7/9/2023 showed R42 was cognitively intact and required staff
assistance for all activities of daily living.
R42's care plan showed PICC Line for IV (Intravenous) antibiotic for lower back surgical incision.
Interventions included assess and monitor infusion site and perform infusion care.
On 8/14/2023 at 11:00 AM, R42 was sitting in his room receiving an IV antibiotic through a left arm PICC
line. The infusion site was not visible since it was covered with a gauze dressing. There was a clear
occlusive dressing over the gauze, dated with 8/12/2023 as the last dressing change.
On 8/16/2023 at 8:40 AM, V20 (RN/Registered Nurse) prepared R42's IV (intravenous) medication for
administration. V20 said the dressing gets changed every 7 days.
On 8/16/23 12:57 PM DON (V3) said when a resident has PICC line the nurse needs to assess the site for
inflammation, infection, need to redness, and make sure catheter is not coming out. Dressings can be
changed every seven days, but if a resident comes from the hospital with gauze covering the insertion site,
the dressing needs to be changed right away so site can be assessed.
Facility provided their policy dated January 2023 and titled, PICC/Midline/CVAD Dressing Change. Policy
showed 9. Inspect the catheter and hub for any defects such as cracks or splits 12. Use a sterile measuring
tape to measure external length of the catheter from the hub to skin entry to ensure that is has not migrated
17. Apply a transparent semipermeable dressing to the insertion site.

Provide safe and appropriate respiratory care for a resident when needed.
Level of Harm - Minimal harm
or potential for actual harm
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
observation and interview the facility failed to ensure that oxygen was delivered to a resident at the rate
prescribed by the physician. This applies to 1 of 1 (R23) resident reviewed for oxygen therapy.
Residents Affected - Few
The findings include:
R23 was admitted to facility on 7/25/22 according to her face sheet. R23's admitting diagnoses included
pulmonary fibrosis, heart failure, respiratory failure, and hypertension. R23's most recent minimum data set
(MDS) assessment dated [DATE] documented she was cognitively intact and required extensive assistance
of one staff for most activities of daily living (ADLs), except supervision for eating and personal hygiene.
On 08/14/23 at 11:03 AM, R23 was noted in her private room seated in the recliner, wearing a nasal
cannula which was connected to a stationary oxygen concentrator. The setting of the oxygen was noted at
2 Liters (2L) rate on the dial, and this was confirmed by V24 (Registered Nurse-RN). V24 then stated the
Oxygen should be set to 4 Liters.
On 08/15/23 at 10:45 AM R23 was seated in room in the wheelchair with a portable oxygen concentrator
hung with a strap on the back of her wheelchair. R23's nasal cannula was noted in place. R23's assigned
nurse V11 (Licensed Practical Nurse/LPN) stated the concentrator shows setting 2 and stated she thinks
that is 2 Liters, but that she was not sure, and added that she (V11) is not used to that type of concentrator.
On 08/15/23 at 11:05 AM, V3 (Director of Nursing/DON) was asked by surveyor to confirm what setting
R23's portable concentrator was on. V3 stated Setting 2 and stated that she was unsure of what rate that
setting was. V3 stated that R23's oxygen was ordered at the rate of 4 Liters of oxygen. V3 then called V17
(Central Supply Clerk) to clarify the settings on the portable concentrator. V17 arrived promptly, viewed the
reading on concentrator, stated it was Setting 2 and stated he believed that meant it was the equivalent of 2
Liters rate. V17 reported the supplier provided an in-service to staff regarding this oxygen concentrator, but
V17 was not sure of the setting.
On 08/16/23 at 10:35 AM, V17 and V4 (Registered Nurse/Infection Preventionist) clarified the portable
oxygen concentrator setting. V17 explained that setting 2 is equivalent to 2 Liters of oxygen according to the
local supplier of the concentrator and confirmed that the setting 2 means 2L of oxygen. V17 stated, We
called (the company) and they confirmed that's the equivalency. V17 provided a 17-page printout titled, A
Guide to Portable Oxygen Concentrators (produced by the American Association for Respiratory Care,
attached) and highlighted section on page 16 and stated this clarified that the setting 4 is the correct setting
for a prescribed 4 Liters rate. V4 explained that the expectation when the physician orders 4 Liters of
oxygen, the concentrator should be set at Setting 4 on the concentrator.
On 8/16/23 at 1:05 PM, V3 (DON) provided R23's physician's order sheet. V3 confirmed physician's order
was changed to 2L by the primary care physician (PCP) earlier in the shift when the PCP was notified of
the variance in the oxygen delivery from the original order. V3 stated the oxygen rate was previously
ordered at 4 Liters by PCP. The facility assignment sheets for the first two days of the survey showed
information for staff for R23, 4L (oxygen)- on concentrator when in room.

On 8/16/23 at 2:33 PM, V4 (Infection Control Nurse) stated that staff must wash hands before entering and
exiting a resident's bedroom, after touching something contaminated, regardless of whether staff is wearing
gloves or not. They should change gloves and perform hand hygiene from dirty to clean task. This is to
prevent spread of infection and cross contamination.
Facility's Hand Hygiene Policy and Procedure dated August 2015 indicates: Policy: All staff will perform
proper hand hygiene procedures to prevent the spread of infection to other personnel, residents, and
visitors. This applies to all staff working in all locations within the facility. 6. Additional considerations: a. The
use of gloves does not replace hand hygiene. If you task requires gloves, perform hand hygiene prior to
donning gloves, immediately after removing gloves.
Hand Hygiene Table indicates to perform hand hygiene:
- Before applying and after removing personal protective equipment (PPE).
- After handling items potentially contaminated with blood, body fluids, secretions, or excretions.
- When, during resident care, moving from a contaminated site to a clean body site.
