prevent accidents.
Level of Harm - Actual harm
Residents Affected - Few
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
observations, resident interviews, staff interviews, medical record review, and policy review, the facility
failed to ensure a resident who required supervision with smoking, was provided supervision, assistive
devices to safely smoke and smoke in a designated safe area. Actual harm occurred to one resident (#31)
when Resident #31, who was observed smoking in the dining room, unsupervised and without a cigarette
holder, was found to have two blisters, verified as cigarette burns on the right index finger near the nail and
on the middle finger between the first and second knuckle. In addition, the facility failed to ensure smoking
materials including lighters were kept secured while not in use, ensure residents were not smoking inside
the facility, ensure residents who required supervision by staff while smoking had staff supervision
available, and ensure residents were assessed for smoking and care plans for smoking were established.
This affected two (#71 and #76) of three residents reviewed for smoking. The facility identified 27 residents
(#1, #4, #9, #23, #31, #35, #36, #38, #40, #44, #47, #49, #50, #52, #63, #66, #69, #70, #71, #75, #76, #85,
#92, #95, #98, #102 and #110) who currently smoke. The facility census was 109.
Findings include:
1. Review of Resident #31's medical record revealed an admission date of 04/19/22. Diagnoses included
traumatic ischemia of muscle, hemiplegia and hemiparesis following cerebral infarction affecting
unspecified side, need for assistants with personal care, muscle weakness, cognitive communication
deficit, and schizophrenia.
Review of the annual Minimum Data Set (MDS) assessment dated [DATE] revealed Resident #31 was
cognitively intact. Resident #31 has impairment to one side of the upper and lower extremity, used a
wheelchair, required substantial, maximum assistance with eating, dependent for toileting, dependent for
upper and lower body dressing, and dependent for personal hygiene. Resident #31 was a current tobacco
user.
Review of the care plan for Resident #31 updated 04/20/22 revealed Resident #31 is a smoker and
expressed the desire to smoke at the facility. Interventions included to remind the resident that staff will be
observing and supervising smoking related behavior; smoking may be limited to specific times; and
smoking may not occur in residents rooms, bathrooms, hallways, stairwells, elevators, and other
non-designated areas.
Review of the smoking risk evaluation for Resident #31 dated 06/15/23 completed by Registered Nurse

had a smoking apron on. Resident #31 did not have a cigarette holder in her hand and was observed
actively smoking a cigarette in the dining room. Dietary Technician #370 instructed Resident #31 she
needed to go outside to smoke. Business Office Human Resource (HR) Manager #288 walked by as
Resident #31 began to go out the exit door into the courtyard and HR Manager #288 stated, Yea, I am
supposed to go out with her. HR Manager #288 confirmed Resident #31 was to have supervision while
smoking and confirmed residents were not to smoke in the facility.

dining room for Resident #31. HR Manager #288 revealed she didn't know if residents were allowed to keep
their cigarettes and lighters on them. HR Manager #288 stated she just fills in sometimes for staff and
monitors/supervises residents on their smoke breaks.
Observation and interview on 04/12/24 at 12:46 P.M. with Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) #313, revealed
staff were supposed to keep resident's cigarettes and lighters locked up in the utility room or downstairs on
a cart. LPN #313 revealed there were independent residents who could smoke anytime but they were to
ask for the cigarette and lighter each time then return them when done. There were also residents who
were unsafe to smoke independently and required staff go out with them at designated smoking times. LPN
#313 stated Resident #31 was unsafe to smoke independently as her left hand was contracted.
Observation of Resident #31's right hand with LPN #313 revealed Resident #31 had multiple scarred areas
on the inner portions of the right index finger and middle finger. There was one large fluid filled blister on the
right index finger near the nail bed and one fluid filled double blister on the inner middle finger between the
first and second knuckle. LPN #313 revealed she did not know the blisters were there. When LPN #313
asked Resident #31 what happened, Resident #31 did not verbally respond. Resident #31 looked down and
did not look back at the surveyor or nurse. LPN #313 confirmed Resident #31 was alert and oriented but
was unsafe to smoke by herself.
Interview on 04/12/24 at 1:36 P.M. with Wound Care Nurse Registered Nurse (RN) #265 revealed Resident
#31 was a smoker. Wound Care Nurse RN #265 revealed she had noticed blisters on her hands before,
from smoking. The blisters healed badly due to repetitive smoking and burning her fingers repetitively.
Resident #31 was supposed to be using the smoking apron and extender to prevent burning her fingers.
Resident #31 often just sat all day in the dining room. Wound Care Nurse RN #265 revealed they don't treat
the blisters on Resident #31's fingers because they were not infected so she would not have received any
treatment orders. Review of Resident #31's progress notes for March and April 2024 revealed no
documentation of blisters or scars on Resident #31's fingers. Wound Care Nurse RN #265 confirmed there
was no documentation she could find from admission of Resident #31 burning her fingers or having scars
or blisters on her fingers and confirmed she had personally seen them on many occasions.

Based on observation, staff interview, and policy review, the facility failed to safely store food and maintain
a clean and sanitary kitchen. This had the potential to affect all residents except Resident #25, #89, and
#90 who received nothing by mouth (NPO). The facility census was 109.
Findings include:
Interview on 04/12/24 at 9:32 A.M., with Dietary [NAME] #294 revealed she did not have time to observe
the refrigerators with the surveyor.
Observation and interview on 04/12/24 at 9:33 A.M., of the walk-in refrigerator with Business Office Human
Resources (HR) Manager #288 revealed a large container of partially used potato salad was undated, a
partially used container of macaroni and hamburger had no date, multiple preset salads and puddings were
on three shelves in small containers, none had dates. There were two large containers of partially used
salad dressings with no date. There were large stacks of opened cheese, none were dated. Under the wire
racks of food on the floor there were large spills that included food particles and dried multicolored liquid.
HR Manager #288 verified the undated food products and the spills on the floor. Observation of the small
refrigerator (located on the other side of the kitchen) with HR Manager #288 revealed Dietary [NAME] #294
was actively dating the food items in the refrigerator as the surveyor approached. Dietary [NAME] #294
verified she was dating the food items in the small fridge and revealed, I told the staff last night to do it, they
didn't so yes that's what I am doing. Items not yet dated included four premade cheese sandwiches,
multiple partially used stacks of cheese, a container of partially used liquid eggs, and a wrapped portion of
a pizza. Dietary [NAME] #294 revealed she did not remember which of the other multiple food items (that
were in facility metal containers and covered in saran wrap) she just dated.
Review of the policy titled, Food Receiving and Storage, revised December 2008, revealed Food Services,
