Provide safe and appropriate respiratory care for a resident when needed.
Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm
Based on observation, medical record review and interview the facility failed to ensure implementation of physician orders for residents with tracheostomies. This affected two (Residents #20 and #59) of three residents reviewed for respiratory care. The facility identified two residents with tracheostomies.
Residents Affected - Few
Findings include: 1. Review of Resident #20's medical record revealed diagnoses including acute and chronic respiratory failure, heart failure, anxiety disorder, and tracheostomy {A surgically created opening through the front of the neck and into the windpipe (trachea) into which a tracheostomy tube (trache) is placed to maintain breathing status.} A nursing note dated 06/29/21 at 5:30 P.M. indicated Resident #20 pulled her trache out and the registered nurse was unable to replace it. Resident #20 was sent to the emergency room for trache replacement. Resident #20 had a physician order dated 06/30/21 to keep a spare trache (size 4 uncuffed Shiley) at the bedside. On 07/30/21 at 10:48 A.M., Registered Nurse (RN) #232 confirmed there was no spare trache (size 4 uncuffed Shiley) at the bedside. 2. Review of Resident #59's medical record revealed diagnoses including acute respiratory failure with hypoxia (below normal level of oxygen in the blood), chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, obstructive sleep apnea, and tracheostomy status. A nursing note dated 07/07/21 at 10:01 P.M. indicated the nurse practitioner was notified of dry sputum causing an increase in mucus plugs. A new order was written for humidification to the trache system every 24 hours for decrease in mucus plugs and increased humidity. On 07/30/21 at 10:30 A.M., Resident #59 was observed lying in bed. The humidification bottle dated 07/18 was empty. At 10:41 A.M., RN #232 verified Resident #59 had humidification ordered and that the bottle was empty. On 08/03/21 at 9:15 A.M., Resident #59's humidification bottle had insufficient fluid in the canister to permit the tubing from the canister to enter the fluid enabling the humidification of the oxygen. The canister was dated 07/31/21 at 11:00 A.M. The Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) present at the time of the observation verified the humidification bottle was ineffective due to lack of fluid. This deficiency substantiates Complaint Number OH00124207.

Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm
Based on medical record review, observation, policy review, and interview the facility failed to maintain infection control practices during tracheostomy care. This affected one (Resident #59) of one resident observed for tracheostomy care.
Residents Affected - Few
Findings include: Review of Resident #59's medical record revealed diagnoses including acute respiratory failure with hypoxia (below normal level of oxygen in the blood), chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, obstructive sleep apnea, and tracheostomy (trache) status {A surgically created opening through the front of the neck and into the windpipe (trachea) into which a tracheostomy tube (trache) is placed to maintain breathing status.} A care plan intervention initiated 08/03/21 indicated Resident #59 was to be suctioned as necessary. During observation of trache care on 08/04/21 at 1:20 P.M., Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) #230 was observed opening a tracheal suctioning kit. A pack of sterile gloves was removed. One glove was donned. The gloved hand was used to reposition flexible tubing lying on the bed and across Resident #59's chest. The contaminated glove was then used to apply the other glove which had been sterile. The gloved hands were then used to turn on the suction machine and move the table prior to suctioning through the trache. On 08/04/21 at 1:29 P.M. LPN #230 verified she had contaminated the gloves used to provide tracheal suctioning. Review of the facility's policy, Respiratory: Suctioning Tracheostomy (revised April 2009) revealed secretions could be suctioned from the trachea as often as necessary. To reduce the possibility of contamination, a sterile technique was essential. This deficiency substantiates Complaint Number OH00124207.
