Honor the resident's right to request, refuse, and/or discontinue treatment, to participate in or refuse to
participate in experimental research, and to formulate an advance directive.
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
interview, medical record review, and facility policy review the facility failed to ensure residents' code status
(level of medical interventions a resident wishes to have performed in the event they experienced an
absence of a heartbeat or breathing) entered in the electronic medical record matched the State of Ohio Do
Not Resuscitate (DNR) written documents for three residents (#31, #57, and #67) of nine residents
reviewed for advanced directives. The facility census was 85.
Findings include:
1. Review of the medical record for Resident #31 revealed an admission date of [DATE]. Diagnoses
included orthopedic care following surgical amputation, local infection of the skin and subcutaneous (under
the skin) tissue, type 2 diabetes, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), moderate protein calorie
malnutrition, hemiplegia and hemiparesis following cerebral infarction, Methicillin-resistant staphylococcus
aureus (MRSA) of unspecified site, idiopathic aseptic necrosis of left toes, acquired absence of right leg
above knee, major depressive disorder, and chronic viral hepatitis C.
Review of the quarterly Minimum Data Set (MDS) 3.0 assessment, dated [DATE], revealed the resident had
a Brief Interview for Mental Status (BIMS) score of 11/15 indicating moderate cognitive impairment. He
required the extensive assistance of one staff member for bed mobility, transfers, dressing, toilet use,
personal hygiene, and bathing.
Review of the State of Ohio DNR form revealed Resident #31 had a DNR Comfort Care-Arrest (DNRCC-A)
in place. This meant treatments and medications to sustain life would be provided up until the resident's
heart or breathing stopped. At that time, no further life saving measures would be provided including
cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR). This form was signed by the physician on [DATE].
Review of the physician orders dated [DATE] identified an order that Resident #31 was a full code. This
meant the resident was to receive CPR in the event his heart stopped beating or he stopped breathing.
Interview on [DATE] at 1:46 P.M. with the Director of Nursing (DON) verified the physician order for full code
entered in the electronic medical record did not match the State of Ohio DNR form in the resident's chart
(hard copy).
2. Review of the medical record for Resident #57 revealed an admission date of [DATE]. Diagnoses
included COVID-19, hemiplegia/hemiparesis left side following cerebral infarction, chronic respiratory failure
with hypoxia, chronic kidney disease stage 3, dysphagia (difficulty swallowing), type 2

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 medications were administered with an error rate of
less than 5%. A total of 12 errors out of 27 opportunities observed resulted in a 44.4% medication error
rate. This affected one resident (#40) of three (#41, #49 and #40) observed for medication administration.
The facility census was 85.
Residents Affected - Few
Findings include:
Review of Resident #40's medical records revealed an admission date of 09/23/21 with diagnoses that
included gastrostomy (feeding tube placement), tracheostomy and respiratory failure.
Review of care plan dated 09/24/21 revealed the resident required the use of a feeding tube related to
dysphasia (difficulty swallowing) and interventions included, check tube for residual (amount of stomach
content remaining after administration of feeding solution or medications).
Review of the Minimum Data Set (MDS) dated [DATE] revealed resident had intact cognition and required
extensive total dependence with transfers, toileting and personal hygiene.
Review of physician orders for March 2022 revealed resident was to have nothing by mouth (NPO), check
for residual of tube every shift prior to feeds, and medications were ordered to be administered via feeding
tube.
Observation of medication administration on 03/07/22 at 10:56 A.M. with Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN)
#500 for Resident #40 revealed LPN #500 took the following medications out of their packaging and placed
the tablets in a medication cup; Diflucan (antifungal medication), clonodine (blood pressure medication),
amlodipine (blood pressure medication), doxcycline (antibiotic), famotidine (heartburn medication),
prednisone (steroid), hydrochlorothiazide (diuretic), zyprexa (antipsychotic), senna (laxative) and
omeprazole (heartburn medication). LPN #500 then placed all the medications in a plastic sleeve used to
crush medications and opened the omeprazole capsule. LPN #500 put the crushed medications in a
drinking cup and placed it on her medication cart. LPN #500 then proceeded to measure 5 milliliters (mL) of
liquid nystatin (medication used to orally treat thrush) and placed the 5 ml nystatin in a drinking cup and
placed it on her medication cart. LPN #500 then proceeded to take both drinking cups into Resident #40's
room and filled each with an undetermined amount of water. Interview with LPN #500 at time of observation
revealed she measured the amount of water added to the medications by looking at it and stated, I eye ball
the amount until it looks about right. LPN #500 then proceeded to Resident #40's bedside. The tube feeding
was turned off and the tubing was disconnected and a syringe was inserted into tube to administer
medications. LPN #500 did not check for residual prior to administering the medications. The medications
were not flowing through the tube and LPN #500 had to manually use a plunger on the end of the syringe
to push the medications through Resident #40's feeding tube. LPN #500 completed the medication
administration, reconnected Resident #40's tube feed and exited the room. Interview with LPN #500 at time
of observation revealed she was not aware medications given via a feeding tube could not be crushed or
administered together, and she further confirmed she should have checked for residual prior to medication
administration.
Interview on 03/09/22 at 7:33 A.M. with Director of Nursing (DON) revealed medications administered
through a tube feeding tube were to be crushed and administered separately and nurses were required to
check for residual prior to medication administration.

Ensure drugs and biologicals used in the facility are labeled in accordance with currently accepted
professional principles; and all drugs and biologicals must be stored in locked compartments, separately
locked, compartments for controlled drugs.
Based on observation and interview the facility failed to ensure medications were secured, not expired and
medications carts did not contain loose unidentifiable medications. This had the potential to affect all 85
residents currently residing in the facility.
Findings include:

Review of the facility policy titled COVID-19 Vaccination dated 03/26/21, revealed the facility would offer and
provide the COVID-19 vaccination as recommended by the Centers for Disease Control(CDC), and other
regulatory bodies to minimize the risk of residents and staff acquiring, transmitting, or experiencing
complications of COVID-19. A consent form would be completed at that time. It was recommended that any
resident who was not exhibiting signs or symptoms of COVID-19 and did not have a positive test should be
offered the COVID-19 vaccination. The facility would record the receipt, refusal, or contraindications within
the medical record and/or the electronic medical record system.
Review of the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid (CMS) Quality /Quality, Safety and Oversight Group
(QSO-21-19-NH), dated 05/11/21 revealed on 05/11/2021 CMS published an interim final rule. This rule
established Long-Term Care (LTC) Facility Vaccine Immunization Requirements for Residents and Staff.
This included new requirements for educating residents or residents representatives and staff regarding the
benefits and potential side effects associated with the COVID-19 vaccine and offering the vaccine.
Furthermore, LTC facilities must report COVID-19 vaccine and therapeutic treatment information to the
Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's (CDC) National Healthcare Safety Network. If the vaccine
was unavailable in the facility, the facility should provide information on obtaining vaccination opportunities
(e.g. Health Department or local pharmacy).
