F 0609 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Few Timely report suspected abuse, neglect, or theft and report the results of the investigation to proper authorities. Based on record review, review of Ohio Departments Enhanced Information Dissemination Collection (EIDC) system, policy review and staff interview, the facility failed to timely report the allegation of physical abuse to the appropriate state agency. This affected one (#16) of three residents reviewed for potential abuse and neglect. The facility census was 44. Findings include: Review of the medical record for the Resident #16 revealed an admission date of 09/02/16. Diagnoses included dementia without behavioral disturbance, major depressive disorder, generalized anxiety disorder, and bipolar disorder. Review of the quarterly Minimum Data Set (MDS) assessment, dated 07/01/23, revealed Resident #16 was rarely understood and required extensive assistance with two staff for activities of daily living (ADLs) except eating required extensive assistance with one staff. Interview on 08/23/23 at 1:30 P.M., with State Tested Nursing Assistant (STNA) #350 revealed she reported on 08/15/23 to the Administrator she was told by STNA #341, that on 08/13/23, Nursing Assistant (NA) #329 slapped Resident #16 while giving care. STNA #350 was not sure if Administrator investigated the alleged physical abuse. Review of the Ohio Departments Enhanced Information Dissemination Collection (EIDC) system revealed no self-reported incident was initiated to the state agency regarding the allegation of physical abuse towards Resident #16 until 08/23/23 at 4:01 P.M. Interview on 08/23/23 at 3:00 P.M., with the Administrator revealed that an SRI was not completed because abuse was not substantiated. The administrator stated that she did investigate it and found it not to be true. Review of undated facility policy titled Abuse, Neglect, and Exploitation revealed allegations of abuse would be reported to the state agency within two hours.

F 0842 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Few Safeguard resident-identifiable information and/or maintain medical records on each resident that are in accordance with accepted professional standards. Based on medical record review, emplyee time sheet review, employee disciplinary review and staff interviews, the facility failed to ensure all resident records had accurate documentation. This affected one (#45) of six residents reviewed for accurate medical records. The census was 44. Finding include: Review of the closed medical record for Resident #45 revealed an admission date of 08/17/23. Diagnosis included bacterial endocarditis. Review of the physician orders revealed an order for Ampicillin-Sulbactam Sodium (antibiotic) intravenous (IV) every six hours. Keep central line dressing intact.

Review of the Ampicillin-Sulbactam Sodium administration details revealed on 08/12/23 at 8:00 A.M., Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) #313 had signed off the medications and then it was strike out on 08/12/23 at 11:20 A.M. by LPN #313, reason declined order and then was signed out at 8:00 A.M., 12:00 P.M. and 4:00 P.M. by former DON at 5:25 P.M Interview on 08/28/23 at 8:01 A.M., with former DON stated she was on vacation on 08/12/23 and was not in the facility at all. She was notified by LPN #313 that Resident #45 needed his IV antibiotic and there was no Registered Nurse (RN) in the facility. She was told that RN #374 was notified but was not able to come in because the Administrator told her she was not allowed to. Former DON verified she got on the electronic charting remotely and signed off three doses of Resident #45's IV antibiotic even though she did not administer the medication. Interview on 08/28/23 at 10:30 A.M., with LPN #313 verified she administered Resident #45's medication Ampicillin-Sulbactam Sodium in a central line. She only remembers doing one dose. LPN #313 stated she was not sure if she could administer IV medications in a central line. So, she did look it up, thought she could under the supervision of an RN, but no RN was in the building at this time. No other LPN working was IV certified. LPN #334 instructed LPN #313 to go ahead and administer since she was IV certified. LPN #334 informed LPN #313 she had talked to RN #374, who was in charge. The former DON did not directly tell LPN #313 to administer the medications. LPN #313 stated she signed the medication off for the one time she gave it. Interview on 08/28/23 at 4:00 P.M., with LPN #334 stated she was working on 08/12/23, on the day shift. Resident #45 had an IV antibiotic that needed to be hung. There was no RN in the building and LPN #313 was IV certified, so we looked up if she was allowed to hang the IV antibiotic, so she hung the antibiotic and signed it off. LPN #334 stated she called RN #374 to see if she was coming in to give Resident #45's antibiotic, RN #374 stated she was not scheduled and did not know if she was allowed to come in. Review of the timesheet for Former DON for 08/12/23 revealed she was not clocked in on 08/12/23. She was not working. Review of the undated policy Documentation in Medical Records, revealed false documentation should not be documented.

RN #340 then took off gloves, donned the gloves that were in the kit and proceeded to put the cleaned cannula in, and placed a new split sponge around the trach. RN #340 did not need to suction Resident #43. RN #304 verified that he did not perform hand hygiene before putting on the second pair of gloves and stated that it's not a sterile procedure.
