F 0689 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Few Ensure that a nursing home area is free from accident hazards and provides adequate supervision to prevent accidents. **NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on observation, interview, and record review, the facility failed to implement fall care plan interventions to prevent further falls. This applies to 1 of 6 residents (R42) reviewed for fall in a sample 20. The findings include: R42 is a [AGE] year-old female with severe cognitive impairment per Minimum Data Set, dated [DATE]. The facility presented fall risk assessment for R42 dated 6/11/23, documenting that R42 is at risk for falls. On 7/13/23 at 9:39 AM, R42 was observed in her wheelchair in the TV room talking to her husband. On 7/13/23 at 9:45 AM per the surveyor's request, V5 (Certified Nursing Assistant/CNA) escorted R42 back to the resident's room to see if any non-slip material was in place with the wheelchair and R42 was sitting in the wheelchair without having the material in place. On 7/13/23 at 9:50 AM, V5 stated, The night shift staff get her up. There should have been the [anti-slip material] on her wheelchair to prevent slipping. Record review on fall log/fall care plan review document that R42 had fallen on 2/23/23, 3/25/23, 3/25/23, 4/16/23, 5/2/23, and 5/20/23. R42's fall care plan documented anti-slip material was placed in a wheelchair to help prevent the resident from sliding. The facility presented Fall - Clinical Protocol (revised March 2018) document: 4. If the individual continues to fall, the staff and physician will re-evaluate the situation, reconsider possible reasons for the resident's falling, and reconsider the current interventions. Any deficiency statement ending with an asterisk (*) denotes a deficiency which the institution may be excused from correcting providing it is determined that other safeguards provide sufficient protection to the patients. (See instructions.) Except for nursing homes, the findings stated above are disclosable 90 days following the date of survey whether or not a plan of correction is provided. For nursing homes, the above findings and plans of correction are disclosable 14 days following the date these documents are made available to the facility. If deficiencies are cited, an approved plan of correction is requisite to continued program participation.

F 0694 Provide for the safe, appropriate administration of IV fluids for a resident when needed. Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Based on observation, interview, and record review, the facility failed to ensure an IV (intravenous) dressing was changed. Residents Affected - Few This applies to 1 of 2 residents (R203) reviewed for IV use and maintenance. Findings include: On 7/11/23 at 10:47 AM, R203 was in bed in his room. R203 said he was admitted to the facility because he needs IV antibiotics for infection. R203 said he is on two different antibiotics and will be here at the facility for four weeks. R203 had an implanted port/central venous catheter access site on his right upper chest for the antibiotic infusions. The date on the dressing of the central line that showed when the dressing was last changed was 7/3/23 (eight days earlier). R203's current Physician Order Sheet (POS) shows the following orders: access Port-A-Cath change Huber needle and dressing weekly, Meropenem-Sodium Chloride Intravenous solution reconstituted 1 gram (GM)/50 milliliters (ML) three times a day for infection until 8/4/23 and Sulfamethoxazole-Trimethoprim Intravenous solution 400-80 milligrams (MG)/5 ml three times a day for infections until 8/4/23. R203's face sheet dated 7/13/23 showed that R203 had diagnoses of intracranial abscess and granuloma, small cell B-cell lymphoma, sepsis and viral infection. On 7/11/23 at 3:10 PM, V8 (Registered Nurse-RN) said the catheter dressing is done weekly by the third shift nurses and as needed. V8 stated if the nurse is unable to change it, they should endorse it to the oncoming nurse.

Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Based on observation, interview and record review, the facility failed to assess for pain and address pain during wound dressing changes. Residents Affected - Few This applies to 1of 1 resident (R253) reviewed for pain management in sample of 20. The findings include: R253's skin impairment care plan (revised 6/30/23) shows that R253 has an actual impairment to skin integrity to his legs, left and right upper arms, left ankle, left 4th toe, left bunion, right lateral big toe, scrotum, groin (related to edema with multiple dry blood blisters), chronic venous stasis ulcers, moisture-associated skin damage/rash, and skin tears, and R253 has diagnoses of multiple wounds, bruises, and skin tears.

Interventions on R253's pressure ulcer care plan include to treat pain as per orders prior to treatment/turning to ensure [R253's] comfort and he prefers to be positioned with [head of bed] elevated for comfort. On 7/12/23 at 2:12 PM, V9 (Wound Care Nurse/Licensed Practical Nurse-LPN) completed wound dressing changes on R253. V9 was assisted by V11 (CNA-Certified Nurse Assistant Supervisor/Scheduler), and V10 (Wound Care Doctor) was at the bedside to assess and measure R253's wounds. V9 informed R253 of the dressing changes and gathered supplies. V9 and V11 removed both of R253's pressure-relieving boots and the pillows from under R253's knees. V9 then removed old dressing on R253's right upper arm. When V9 removed it, R253 flinched and said, Ow. V9 proceeded to remove old dressings on R253's left forearm and left upper arm, and R253 grimaced and said, ow that hurts- I want to sit up. V9 informed R253 that he will get up after the dressing change and that he needed to turn on his side and V11 assisted V9 with turning R253 to his right side. As they were turning R253, he grimaced again and said, Ow. V9 removed the old dressing on R253's buttocks and R253 said, Ouch. V9 apologized and V11 said, Take a deep breath. R253 grimaced and said again that he wanted to sit up and V11 said, Hang in there. V10 measured the wounds on R253's left forearm and left upper arm and V9 cleansed R253's skin tears on the left forearm and left upper arm with normal saline and applied skin prep. R253 said, Ouch and said he wanted the head of his bed elevated, V9 put the head of his bed up and did not ask R253 about his pain. V9 applied skin prep, the treatment, and covered the wound on R253's buttocks while R253 kept saying ow, ow, and ouch. V10 informed R253 to hold on and that he could get up when the dressing change was completed. V9 moved to the wound on his left toes; V9 removed dressing, R253 said Ouch, that hurts. V9 cleansed the wound on R253's left third and fourth toe and applied skin prep and dressings. During the treatment application, R253 said, Don't do that, whatever you are doing, it hurts. V9 said she was almost done. V9 and V11 repositioned R253 after the dressing changes. The observation of the dressing changes was from 2:12 PM to 3:00 PM. On 7/12/23 at 3:01 PM, V9 said R253 gets Acetaminophen 500 mg every 12 hours, and he received the last dose in the morning and was not sure if R253 receives any narcotic medication. R253's current Physician Order Sheet (POS) shows that R253 has the following orders: Acetaminophen 500 milligram (MG) by mouth every 12 hours for pain management. R253's July 2023 Medication Administration Record (MAR) showed that R253 received Acetaminophen 500 mg on 7/12/23 at 8:00 AM, six hours earlier. R253's pain care plan (revised 6/30/23) showed interventions of encourage/educate resident of methods to notify staff of pain and effectiveness of interventions, and review orders to identify pain relief medications or treatments, notify practitioner if ineffective.
