F 0678
Level of Harm - Minimal harm
or potential for actual harm
Residents Affected - Few
Interview on [DATE] at 5:10 P.M. with CNA #236 confirmed when doing rounds around 9:20 P.M. on [DATE]
he checked on Resident #132 and noticed she wasn't responding and had no pulse so he went to get RN
#188. CNA #236 confirmed RN #188 started chest compressions and the CNA took over chest
compressions while the nurse left the room to call 911. CNA #236 confirmed neither he nor RN #188
provided any rescue breaths and further confirmed he did not know how to use the artificial manual
breathing unit (Ambu) bag (device used in medical settings to provide rescue breaths.) CNA #236
confirmed after he and RN #188 alternated doing chest compressions for several minutes RNS #163
arrived and set up the ambu bag to deliver rescue breaths.
Interview on [DATE] at 6:51 A.M. with CNA #185 confirmed CNA #236 found Resident #132 non-responsive
and then ran down the hall to get RN #188. CNA #185 confirmed she, CNA #236, and RN #188 alternated
doing chest compressions and no one delivered rescue breaths to the resident until RNS #163 arrived and
set up the Ambu bag.
Interview on [DATE] at 11:28 A.M. with the RNS #163 confirmed CNA #185 contacted her by phone on
[DATE] at 9:27 P.M. to report Resident #132 was not breathing and they needed assistance. RNS #163
confirmed she ran to Resident #132's room and found the resident on the floor receiving chest
compressions from RN #188. RNS #163 confirmed no staff were providing rescue breaths to Resident
#132, so she got the Ambu bag from the crash cart that was in the room, assembled and connected it and
then asked CNA #185 to administer the breaths while she took over the compressions.
Interview on [DATE] at 6:52 A.M. with RN #188 confirmed he did not administer any rescue breaths to
Resident #132 when he initiated the code and that no one administered rescue breaths to the resident until
RNS #163 arrived to the room on [DATE] at approximately 9:27 P.M. during the code in progress.
Review of the facility policy titled Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation (CPR) and Basic Life Support (BLS)
revised [DATE] revealed the facility's procedure for administering CPR should incorporate the steps covered
in the AHA guidelines to include administering rescue breaths.
Review of online guidance per the AHA retrieved on [DATE] at https://cpr.heart.org/en/resources/what-is-cpr
revealed for healthcare providers and those trained conventional CPR consisted of using chest
compressions and providing rescue breaths at a ratio of 30 compressions to two breaths.
This deficiency represents noncompliance investigated under Complaint Number OH00159255.
