This REQUIREMENT is not met as evidenced
by:
Based on observation, interview, and record
review, the facility failed to provide
accommodation of needs to three of 19
residents reviewed (Residents 232, 49 and 2),
when the call light button was not within the
residents' reach.
This failure resulted for the residents not to
have a means of directly contacting the staff for
assistance.
Findings:
1. On August 21, 2018, at 2:01 p.m., Resident
232 was observed lying down in bed, turned on
his right side. Resident 232's call light was
placed on his back closer to the left side of the
bed. When the resident was asked if he could
turn on his left side and try to reach for his call
light, Resident 232 gave a blank stare.
Subsequently, the Director of Staff
Development (DSD) walked in to Resident
232's room. The DSD verified Resident 232
was turned on his right side and the call light
was placed on the resident's back closer to the
left side of the bed.
The DSD stated Resident 232 needed
assistance on turning. The DSD stated all staff
should ensure call lights were within residents'
reach at all times, including after repositioning
the residents in bed.

This REQUIREMENT is not met as evidenced
by:
Based on interview and record review, for 10 of
12 residents reviewed (Residents 21, 61, 48,
16, 8, 79, 26, 43, 2, and 41), the facility failed to
provide documented evidence an Advance
Directive (AD - written instruction related to the
provision of health care when the resident is no
longer able to make decisions) was discussed
with the resident and/or Resident
Representative (RR), nor residents and/or RR
had been offered an opportunity to decline or
accept assistance to formulate an AD.
In addition, the facility failed to ensure a
Physician Orders for Life-Sustaining Treatment
(POLST - pre-arranged instructions related to
life-sustaining treatments upon admission) was
completed for Resident 79 and 61.
This facility failure had the potential for
residents not to be able to exercise their rights
to make their choices followed related to lifesustaining treatment and services in case of
emergency if they should become
incapacitated.
Findings:
1. On August 21, 2018, Resident 21's record
was reviewed. Resident 21 was admitted to the
facility on November 30, 2012, with diagnoses
that included Alzheimer's Disease (progressive
loss of ability to think, process thoughts, and
make sound decisions).
Resident 21's history and physical dated
December 29, 2017, indicated, "does NOT
have the capacity to understand and make
decisions." The resident's son was named the
RR and had a conservatorship pending
application on file.

residents observed for medication
administration (Resident 35), to ensure privacy
and confidentiality of medical records was
maintained, when a licensed nurse used her
personal mobile phone to communicate
Resident 35's protected health information with
the physician.
This failure placed Resident 35's protected
health information at risk of being accessible to
unauthorized individuals.
Findings:
On August 22, 2018, at 5:22 p.m., a medication
administration observation with Licensed
Vocational Nurse (LVN) 2 was conducted. LVN
2 was observed to check Resident 35's blood
sugar. The glucometer (device used to check
blood sugar level) indicated 493 (normal 80120 mg/dL {milligrams per deciliter}). LVN 2
stated she would notify the physician about the
resident's high blood sugar. LVN 2 was then
observed to use her personal mobile phone.
LVN 2 stated licensed nurses at this facility
were allowed to "text" (sending of messages
using a mobile phone) the physicians. In
addition, LVN 2 stated if the physicians reply
with an order, the nurses would transcribe the
order as a telephone order.
On August 27, 2018, at 11:14 a.m., Registered
Nurse (RN) 2 was interviewed. RN 2 stated
physicians allowed licensed nurses at this
facility to relay their referrals through "text." RN
2 stated the nurses use their personal mobile
phones since the facility did not have mobile
phones available for sending "text" messages
to the physicians.
On August 27, 2018, at 11:30 a.m., RN 3 was
interviewed. RN 3 stated physicians should be
called/informed of residents' medical concerns.

RN 3 further stated she would personally use
the telephone but some physicians do not
answer calls right away so licensed nurses
have sent "text" messages to communicate
with them.
On August 27, 2018, at 11:45 a.m., the Director
of Staff Development (DSD) was interviewed.
The DSD stated she was not sure what the
facility policy indicated about acceptable
methods of communicating with physicians. In
addition, the DSD stated, licensed nurses
should not use their personal mobile phones to
"text" residents' medical concerns to the
physicians.
On August 27, 2018, at 2:53 p.m., the Director
of Nursing (DON) was interviewed. The DON
stated nurses were not supposed to
communicate residents' medical concerns with
physicians through "text" but should call the
physicians using the facility phones. The DON
further stated fax messaging could be an
alternative but should be followed up with a
call.
The facility's policy titled, "HIPAA (Health
Insurance Portability and Accountability Act)
Privacy," dated August 17, 2018, was
reviewed. The policy indicated: "...The forms

This may result to the nursing facility's failure to
incorporate in the resident's care plan,
determinations made by the SDA for
specialized services required to meet the
resident's needs while residing in the facility.
Findings:
On August 21, 2018, Resident 20's records
was reviewed. Resident 20 was admitted to the
facility on November 19, 2015, with diagnoses
that included schizophrenia (mental disorder
that affects how a person thinks, feels, and
behaves).
Resident 20's record further indicated a
PASARR Level I was conducted on November
1, 2015. The PASARR Level I screening
indicated the need for a PASARR Level II
evaluation to ensure that Nursing Facility (NF)
placement was appropriate and to identify what
specialized services and recommendations
was required to better care for the resident.
There was no documented evidence the facility
followed up and coordinated with SDA for a
Level II PASARR assessment and evaluation.
On August 21, 2018, at 2:15 p.m., the Minimum
Data Set (MDS- a resident assessment tool)
Nurse (MDSN) was interviewed. The MDSN
stated she was responsible for the completion
of PASARR screening for the residents upon
admissions.
The MDSN was asked regarding Resident 20's
PASARR Level I screening conducted on
November 20, 2015 that indicated a Level II
PASARR assessment and evaluation was
needed.
The MDSN was unable to provide documented
evidence that Resident 20's PASARR Level II

Based on observation, interview, and record
review, the facility failed to ensure, four of 19
residents reviewed (Residents 21, 16, 31, and
41), receive treatment and care in accordance
with professional standards of practice when:
1. Resident 21, 16, and 31 were not provided a
wheelchair foot rest to provide good body
alignment and support.
This facility failure may result to poor posture
and development of potential contracture (a
condition of shortening and hardening of
muscles, tendons, or other tissue often leading
to deformity and rigidity of joints); and
2. The facility failed to identify and address
Resident 41's eye redness with discharge and
pain.
This facility failure may result to delay in
treatment and may contribute to development
of potential infection and complications.
Findings:
1a. On August 20, 2018, at 9:54 a.m., Resident
21 was observed in the dining room sitting on a
tilt-wheelchair. Resident 21's wheelchair was
noted slightly tilted, head and neck without
support; knees slightly bent and elevated; and
legs dangling (no foot rest) on air. Resident 21
was alert but confused and unable to make her
needs known.
On August 20, 2018, at 12:00 noon, an
observation and interview was conducted with
the Restorative Nursing Assistant (RNA). The
RNA acknowledged Resident 21 was in an
awkward tilted position. The RNA stated
Resident 21 should have a foot rest for leg
support and wheelchair positioned upright for

good body alignment.
On August 20, 2018, at 12:36 p.m., the
Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA) 2 was
interviewed. CNA 2 stated she got Resident 21
up on her wheelchair and did not place the foot
rest because the resident's legs did not stay
put and she decided to leave the foot rest off.
CNA 2 further stated she should have left the
foot rest on but they were short and did not fit
the resident's legs.
On August 21, 2018, at 2:36 p.m., an
observation and interview was conducted with
the Minimum Data Set (MDS-a resident
assessment tool) Nurse (MDSN). The MDSN
inspected the tilt-wheelchair and stated the foot
rest was permanently attached and pushed
back under the wheelchair.
The MDSN stated the foot rest was short and
needed to be adjusted to accommodate
Resident 21's leg length and body frame for
comfort and support. The MDSN further stated
the wheelchair should have been kept on an
upright position every time Resident 21 was
seated to maintain good body alignment.
1b. On August 20, 2018, at 12:10 p.m.,
Resident 16 was observed with the following:
- Resident 16 was in her wheelchair in the
dining/activity room.
- Resident 16's wheelchair was reclined with no
foot rest.
- Resident 16's both lower extremities were
dangling and both feet were pointed down on
the floor.

reviewed. Resident 16 was admitted to the
facility on April 2, 2014, with diagnoses that
included hemiplegia (paralysis on one side of
the body), hemiparesis (weakness on one side
of the body) and generalized muscle
weakness.

facility on November 20, 2012, with diagnoses
that included dementia (progressive loss of
ability to think, process thoughts, and make
sound decisions) and schizophrenia (mental
disorder that affects how a person thinks, feels,
and behaves).
Further record review indicated:
- Resident 6's history and physical dated
December 29, 2017, indicated, resident was
confused and did not have the capacity to
understand and make decisions.

This REQUIREMENT is not met as evidenced
by:
Based on interview and record review, the
pharmaceutical consultant (PC) failed for:
1. Six of six residents (Residents 15, 61, 47, 3,
72, and 59), to identify drug irregularities when
multiple licensed nurses were signing out
narcotic medications (Norco and Tramadol narcotic pain medications) and were not
documenting on the residents' Medication
Administration Record (MAR) if the medications
were administered. In addition, the PC failed to
identify the unaccountability of narcotic
medications. (Cross Reference F755); and
2. Two of five residents reviewed for
unnecessary medications (Residents 60 and
80), to identify drug irregularities when the dose
of the medications, Norco was administered
without appropriate pain assessments, and
Tramadol dose was increased and
administered without appropriate pain
assessments.
These failures had the potential harm to the
residents due to unnecessary use of narcotic
pain medications and had the potential for drug
irregularities that may result in the diversion of
medications.
Findings:
1. On August 23, 2018, Resident 15's record
was reviewed. Resident 15's count sheet for
Norco from the period of June 2018 to August
2018, indicated multiple licensed nurses were
signing out the narcotic pain medication, and
were not documenting on the MAR if the
medication was administered to the resident. In
addition, the licensed nurses did not document
the indication for use and evaluation for the
effectiveness of the medication. (Cross

In addition, LVN 3 stated he was aware
Resident 59 had orders for Tylenol and
Ibuprofen (non-narcotic pain medications). LVN

Findings:
On August 22, 2018, at 11:48 a.m., during the
tray line observation, the first few "Early diner"
(list of residents who requested early meal
trays) resident meal trays on a small roll-away
cart were prepared for distribution right after
the steam table "temping" (temperature food
recording) was completed.
Before the "Early Diner" meal trays were taken
for distribution, the Dietary Services Supervisor
(DSS) was requested to check the temperature
of the salad and dessert.
The DSS stated the salad and desert's
temperature was already taken and logged.
Random temperature check for salad and
dessert were as follows:
-Fiesta salad, 56°F; and
-Tangy glazed fresh fruit, 51.1°F.
In a concurrent interview, the DSS stated the
fiesta salad was refrigerated and chilled at 9:00
a.m., and the tangy glazed fresh fruit at 10:30
a.m. The DSS stated there was not enough
time left to cool down the salad and dessert.
The DSS further stated the facility's cool down
is 41°F or lower before serving salad and
desserts.
During the same interview with the DSS, the
temperature log book was requested for
inspection.

unable to provide documented evidence salad
temperatures had been taken and recorded
every time salad was on the menu for the
month of August.
The Cook overheard the exchanges and
stated, they have not been taking the
temperature for salad because the
"Temperature Log Sheet" had no space to
make the entry recording.
On August 27, 2018, at 9:50 a.m., the DSS

(ii) Develop and implement appropriate plans of
action to correct identified quality deficiencies;
This REQUIREMENT is not met as evidenced
by:
Based on interview, and record review, the
facility's Quality Assessment and Assurance
(QAA) committee failed to identify, develop,
and implement an appropraite plan of action to
correct quality deficiencies related to
Pharmaceutical Services when:
1. the facility failed to identify quality concerns
regarding licensed nurses care practices that
meets expected professional standards, when
multiple licensed nurses failed to follow the
facility's policy and procedure for narcotic
medication administration (Cross Reference
F755); and
2. the facility failed to assess if contracted
pharmaceutical consultants perform quality
review to identify drug irregularities, when pain
narcotic medications, Norco and Tramadol,
were signed out in the narcotic count sheet by
multiple licensed nurses on multiple occasions
and was not documented in the Medication
Administration Record (MAR) that it was
administered to the residents. In addition,
licensed nurses did not document the indication
for use and the evaluation for the effectiveness
of the medication (Cross Reference F755,
F756, and F757) .
These failures had the potential for drug
irregularities that may result in diversion of
controlled medication and for the residents to
recieved unnecassary medications.
The above failures had resulted in a
Substandard Quality of Care which was
identified on August 23, 2018. An extended
