F 0689 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Few Ensure that a nursing home area is free from accident hazards and provides adequate supervision to prevent accidents. **NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** 2.

The DON confirmed she had not done a root cause analysis for this fall. During a telephone interview on 03/09/2023 at 11:15 A.M. Registered Nurse (RN) #338 stated it was his opinion that implementing a verbal reminder to use the call light after a fall was a nonsense intervention for a resident with dementia, and it was inappropriate. Observation and interview with Resident #23 on 03/09/23 at 12:43 P.M. revealed when asked if he could read the yellow sign on the wall to the right side of his bed and the orange sign on the wall in front of his bed which read, Use call light for help, Resident #23 was able to look at the sign but could not verbalize what the sign read.

F 0689 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Few Resident #23's neurological assessments were completed with no concerns, and his call light was put into reach, and informed to press his call light when he needed help. There were no injuries observed. Resident #23 was confused and there were no witnesses found. The IDT collaborated and decided they would place a fall mat to the left side of Resident #23's bed. Further interventions were to encourage use of Resident #23's walker and there were signs in the room to to remind the resident to use the call light for assistance. There was not any evidence there was a root cause analysis completed for this fall. Interview with the DON on 03/0823 at 8:53 A.M. revealed she did not do a root cause analysis and felt like a fall mat was appropriate to put as a new intervention. The DON stated the IDT review falls when they happen, but confirmed there was room for improvement and would be working on a new system. 3. Review of Resident #200's medical record revealed an admission date of 02/03/23.

Review of a fall investigation dated 02/12/23 revealed Resident #200 was observed on the floor on the right side of the bed with all interventions in place. There were no witnesses to the fall and Resident #200 was oriented to person only and was confused. A fall mat was implemented as a new intervention, and the care plan was updated to reflect the new intervention. Interview with the DON on 03/08/23 at 9:02 A.M. confirmed there was not a root cause analysis for this fall for Resident #200. Review of a policy titled, Fall Reduction Policy, dated 04/29/16, revealed it is the policy of the facility to identify residents at risk for falls and to implement a fall reduction program to reduce the risk of falls and possible injury. Follow-up investigations will be done to ascertain the cause of the incident to reduce the risk of further occurrences. Based on medical record review, resident and staff interview, fall investigation review, and policy review, the facility failed to complete a root cause analysis as part of their fall investigations and implement resident appropriate fall interventions. This affected three (#16, #23, and #200) of seven residents reviewed for falls. The facility census was 47.

F 0692 Provide enough food/fluids to maintain a resident's health. Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Based on medical record review, staff interview, and facility policy review, the facility failed to obtain resident weights as ordered and failed to provide alternates when meal intakes were below desired levels. This affected one (#300) of four residents reviewed for nutrition. The census was 47. Residents Affected - Few Findings include: Review of Resident #300's medical record revealed an admission date of 09/27/22. Diagnoses included diabetes mellitus type II, atherosclerotic heart disease, hypertension, cervicalgia, muscle weakness, colostomy status, fusion of the spine, dysphagia, hyperlipidemia, ischemic cardiomyopathy, and bradycardia. Review of his Minimum Data Set (MDS) assessment, dated 01/06/23, revealed Resident #300 was cognitively intact. Review of Resident #300's orders revealed he was to have weekly weights taken, for the first four weeks, which was dated from 09/28/22 to 10/24/22. Further review of the orders revealed, beginning on 10/19/22, the order was continued for weekly weights. The was to continue until 01/19/23. Review of Resident #300's weights, dated 09/28/22 to 02/01/23, revealed Resident #300 weighed 164.4 pounds on 10/04/22, weighed 154.8 pounds on 10/08/22, weighed 163.4 pounds on on 11/17/22, weighed 164.8 pounds on 11/22/22, weighed 159.0 pounds on 12/01/22, weighed 159.4 pounds on 12/04/22, weighed 159.4 pounds 12/14/22, weighed 149.9 pounds on 01/11/23, weighed 146.8 pounds on 01/18/23, weighed 150.8 pounds on 01/31/23, and weighed 150.8 pounds on 02/01/23. The facility did not take an initial weight for Resident #300 until six days after admission. There was a significant weight decrease from 10/04/22 to 10/08/22, and no re-weight was taken to verify the weight loss. Also, there was a significant weight increase from 10/08/22 to 11/17/22, and a re-weight was not taken until five days later. There was a significant weight decrease from 12/14/22 to 01/11/23, and there was no re-weight taken until seven days later. Finally, there were multiple entries missing to meet the order of taking weekly resident weights from 09/28/22 to 01/19/23. Review of Resident #300 nutritional care plan revealed the facility is to obtain weights per order. Also, the facility staff will offer a substitute if the resident eats less than 75% of his meals. Review of Resident #300 meal intake documentation and meal substitutes offered documentation, dated 11/10/22 to 02/01/23, revealed Resident #300 ate less than 75% of meals and was not offered a substitute 59 different times.

(X4) ID PREFIX TAG SUMMARY STATEMENT OF DEFICIENCIES (Each deficiency must be preceded by full regulatory or LSC identifying information)
F 0692 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Few staff members also confirmed they are to follow physician and nutritional orders for taking resident weights. DON confirmed the facility had an issue with getting weights obtained timely a couple months ago, but they have worked to do better. Review of a facility weight policy, dated March 2017, revealed weight is an indicator and method of monitoring resident nutritional status. Resident weight will be monitored on a monthly basis, or more frequently when indicated. This data will be used to identify those residents with significant weight variance and as an indicator of nutritional risk. All weight orders are to be written as follows: weights weekly for four weeks and then monthly and as needed unless otherwise ordered or specified. An in-house weight will be obtained within 24 hours of admission and recorded in the resident health record. Residents will be reweighed in 24 hours if their weight change meets the following criteria: resident weight less than 150 pounds with a three pound (or more) weight change or resident weight more than 150 pounds with a five pound (or more) weight change. This deficiency represents non-compliance investigated under Master Complaint Number OH00137211 and Complaint Number OH00136526.
