**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
record review, observation, staff interview, and resident interview the facility failed to ensure residents were
provided with dignity during dining. This affected six (#7, #57, #92, #113, #129 and #358) of 30 residents
reviewed for dining. The facility census was 152.
Findings include:
1. Record review revealed Resident #92 was admitted to the facility on [DATE]. Diagnoses included
dementia, paranoid schizophrenia, anxiety and chronic kidney disease.
Review of the quarterly assessment dated [DATE] revealed the resident had impaired cognition, and
required supervision to eat.
Review of the nurse notes dated from 08/01/19 to 11/20/19 had no documentation to support staff were
being rude or disrespectful, however notes throughout documented the resident was frequently upset with
staff for not being able to hear what she was saying.
Observation on 11/20/19 at 7:49 A.M., Resident #92 was sitting at the table in the dining area, and State
Tested Nursing Assistant (STNA) #326 had just set down a bowl of cold cereal, a glass of juice and a glass
of milk. STNA #326 then sat at the table next to Resident #92 and began looking over dining tickets.
Resident #92 stated she had told STNA #326 she did not want any milk and the STNA needed to come
and take it away. STNA #326 responded to the resident with a direct stern tone that she would take the milk
away in a minute and that the resident could hold on. STNA #326 made eye contact with the surveyor the
her tone immediately changed. STNA #326 continued to tell the resident she had not put the milk in her
cereal and knew the resident wanted to eat it dry. Resident #92 was eating dry cereal and the milk was not
poured in the bowl.
Interview on 11/20/19 at 7:50 A.M., STNA #326 apologized for sounding stern, and said she should not
have done that. She also stated she had not poured the milk in the cereal and was going to take away the
milk when she was finished with the dietary tickets for other residents.

2. Record review revealed Resident #358 was admitted to the facility on [DATE]. Diagnoses included
fracture of the right pubis, protein calorie malnutrition, dysphasia, dementia, major depression, and
malignant neoplasm.
Review of the admission assessment dated [DATE] revealed he had impaired cognition, he required
extensive assistance of one staff for eating and had loss of food from his mouth.
Review of the plan of care (POC) dated 11/12/19 revealed he was at risk for nutritional decline due to
diagnoses and his interventions included to encourage him to eat, drink and may need assistance due to
his dementia he may not even be interested in food.
Observation on 11/19/19 at 10:00 A.M., Resident #358 was sitting in the dining room attempting to eat
scrambled eggs, a banana, a biscuit, and a two handled lidded sipper cup. He was sitting with Speech
Therapy (ST) #300 at this time.
Observation on 11/19/19 at 11:40 A.M., Resident #358 was sitting in the dining room in front of his
breakfast meal of scrambled eggs, a biscuit and banana. He was not eating at this time, but would pick up
the fork and attempt to fork something in the bowl and then just put his fork down. At 11:42 A.M., Culinary
Aide #226 and #293 arrived to the area to begin the lunch meal. At 11:49 A.M., Resident #358 attempted
multiple times to get his fork from his bowl then just stopped. He began to chatter and then picked up the
fork out of the bowl and kept trying to fork the biscuit but could not get any and then he put the fork down.
At 12:09 P.M., Unit Secretary #136 came into the dining room and asked Resident #358 if he was going to
eat any more of his breakfast as it was almost lunch time and then she removed the breakfast plate.
On 11/20/19 at 9:01 A.M., Unit Secretary #136 was observed feeding the resident his breakfast and he was
eating some of the food.
Interview on 11/20/19 at 9:43 A.M., Unit Secretary #136 stated she saw the resident the day before sitting
there with his breakfast and lunch was about to be served so she removed his plate. She was unsure why
he still had his breakfast plate sitting in front of him.
Interview on 11/20/19 at 10:20 A.M., ST #300 stated the day before she had been completed a swallowing
treatment with the resident and he had not been interested in eating, she gave him a banana and he
slammed it on the table. She said he was able to pick up the fork and take a few bites of egg. She left the
plate in front of him because he would often pick up bits and pieces of foods especially finger foods to try
and eat since he was in the dining area. She thought STNA's #4 and #48, working on the hall would have
taken away the plate.

[DATE] with a diagnoses of dementia, intellectual disabilities, schizophreniform disorder, and type II
diabetes.
