Honor the resident's right to a dignified existence, self-determination, communication, and to exercise his or
her rights.
Based upon record review, observation, staff interview, and review of facility policy, the facility failed to
provide a dignified resident dining experience. This affected one (Resident #56) of 18 residents sampled.
The census was 78.
Findings include:
Review of the medical record for Resident #56 revealed an admission date of 01/09/20. Diagnoses included
hemiplegia and hemiparesis following cerebrovascular disease, cerebral palsy, and Alzheimer's disease.
Review of the Minimum Data Set (MDS) assessment, dated 02/05/20, revealed Resident #56 was
cognitively impaired and required extensive assistance of one staff with eating.
Observation on 02/18/20 at 12:47 P.M. revealed State Tested Nursing Assistant (STNA) #30 fed Resident
#56 his lunch meal in his room with the door open. Resident #56 was sitting up in bed, and STNA #30 was
standing over resident while feeding him.
Interview on 02/18/20 at 12:59 P.M. with STNA #30 confirmed she stood over Resident #56 for the entirety
of the lunch meal while feeding resident. STNA #30 further confirmed she stood for the entire meal
because it was her preference to do so.
Review of facility policy titled Assistance with Meals, dated July 2017, revealed residents who cannot feed
themselves will be fed with attention to dignity which included not standing over residents while assisting
them with meals.

Honor the resident's right to request, refuse, and/or discontinue treatment, to participate in or refuse to
participate in experimental research, and to formulate an advance directive.
Based upon record review, staff interview, and review of facility policy, the facility failed to accurately
document the code status for one (Resident #56) of 18 residents sampled. The census was 78.
Residents Affected - Few
Findings include:
Review of the medical record for Resident #56 revealed an admission date of 01/09/20. Diagnoses included
hemiplegia and hemiparesis following cerebrovascular disease, cerebral palsy, and Alzheimer's disease.
Review of the Minimum Data Set (MDS) assessment, dated 02/05/20, revealed Resident #56 was
cognitively impaired.
Review of the medical record for Resident #56 revealed a form signed by the resident's attending physician
indicating resident's code status was Do Not Resuscitate Comfort Care (DNRCC)-Arrest.
Review of dashboard of the electronic medical record (EMR) for Resident #56 revealed resident's code
status was listed as DNRCC.
Review of the current physician orders in the EMR for Resident #56 revealed resident's code status was
listed as DNRCC.
Interview on 02/19/20 at 9:15 A.M. with Registered Nurse (RN) #22 confirmed Resident #56's correct code
status was DNRCC Arrest, and the dashboard of the EMR and the current physician orders did not reflect
the resident's correct code status. RN #22 further confirmed the dashboard of the EMR, the current
physician orders, and any signed DNR forms in the paper chart should all match to prevent confusion in an
emergency.
Review of facility policy titled Advance Directives/Care Planning, dated December 2016, revealed the facility
would communicate resident preferences regarding advanced directives including code status to the staff.

Try different approaches before using a bed rail. If a bed rail is needed, the facility must (1) assess a
resident for safety risk; (2) review these risks and benefits with the resident/representative; (3) get informed
consent; and (4) Correctly install and maintain the bed rail.
Based on record review, observation, resident interview, staff interview, and review of facility policy, the
facility failed to assess the need for the use of bilateral half side rails on the bed of one (Resident #38) of
two residents reviewed for restraints. The census was 78.
Findings include:
Review of the medical record for Resident #38 revealed and admission date of 01/16/19 with a diagnosis of
Alzheimer's disease.
Review of side rail assessment for Resident #38 dated 01/16/19 revealed resident did not use side rails and
resident had not expressed a desire to have side rails on his bed.
Review of hospice admission orders for Resident #38 dated 09/12/19 revealed the resident was admitted to
hospice with a diagnosis of end stage Alzheimer's disease and an order for the hospice company to provide
a bed with bilateral half side rails for the resident.
Review of the Minimum Data Set (MDS) assessment for Resident #38 dated 12/17/19 revealed resident
was cognitively impaired and required extensive assistance of two staff with bed mobility. The MDS failed to
code the presence of the side rails in Section P.
Review of the physician orders for Resident #38 dated 01/28/20 revealed an order for resident to have
bilateral half side rails to his bed to assist with bed mobility and to check placement every shift.
Review of the care plan for Resident #38, updated 02/13/20, revealed the resident had a self-care deficit
which fluctuated related to Alzheimer's dementia, generalized weakness, spinal stenosis, and confusion at
times. Interventions included resident could have bilateral half side rails to assist with bed mobility.
The record contained no assessment indicating the need for the use of the bilateral half side rails.
Observation on 02/18/20 at 1:07 P.M. of Resident #38's bed revealed it had bilateral half side rails to the
upper half of the bed, and the bed had a sticker to the frame indicating it was the property of the hospice
company.
Interview on 02/18/20 at 1:07 P.M. with Resident #38 confirmed the bilateral half side rails had been on his
bed since sometime in 2019 and he did not use them, nor did he have a preference regarding their
presence on his bed.
Interview on 02/19/20 at 12:30 P.M. with Licensed Practical Nurse #71 and Hospice Registered Nurse (RN)
#127 confirmed Resident #38 was provided a new bed with bilateral half side rails on 09/12/19 upon his

appropriateness of side rails prior to their implementation nor had the facility assessed Resident #38 for the
use of side rails since that time.
Review of facility policy titled Bed Safety, dated December 2007, revealed prior to the use of side rails there
would be an interdisciplinary assessment of the resident and side rails would be used only as needed to
manage a medical symptom or condition or to help a resident reposition in bed and no other reasonable
alternative could be identified. Further review of policy revealed before using side rails the staff would
inform the resident and resident's representative of the potential hazards associated with side rails.

report had not been signed or addressed by the physician. The nurse had written on 07/01/19 she spoke
with outpatient psychiatrist on the phone who indicated resident had been seen on 06/14/19 and the
resident's dose of Seroquel was appropriate.

had intermittent episodes of agitation with none requiring pharmacologic intervention.
Review of outpatient psychiatrist note for Resident #5 dated 08/21/19 revealed the facility reported
Resident #5 had not exhibited aggressive behaviors in months and facility should use behavioral
interventions and redirection to assist with managing behaviors.
Interview on 02/21/20 at 11:00 A.M. with the Director of Nursing (DON) confirmed a dosage reduction of
Resident #5's Seroquel had not been attempted since it was ordered 07/06/18 nor had it been documented
as clinically contraindicated. DON further confirmed Resident #5's record did not include tracking of target
behaviors or documentation of non-pharmacological measures attempted to manage resident behavior.
Review of the facility policy titled Antipsychotic Medications, dated December 2016, revealed antipsychotic
medications would be considered for residents with dementia but only after medical, physical, functional,
psychological, emotional psychiatric, social and environmental causes of behavioral symptoms had been
identified and addressed. Further review of the policy revealed antipsychotic medications would be
prescribed at the lowest possible dosage for the shortest period of time and would be subject to gradual
dose reduction and re-review.
