Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm **NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on observation, staff interview, medical record review, and review of the facility policy, the facility failed to provide set-up assistance with breakfast for a resident who required assistance with meals. This affected one (Resident #23) of five residents reviewed for activities of daily living assistance. The facility census was 43. Residents Affected - Few Findings include: Review of Resident #23's medical record revealed he admitted to the facility on [DATE]. Diagnoses included dementia without behavioral disturbance, anxiety disorder, abnormal weight loss, dysphagia, and major depressive disorder. Review of the Minimum Data Set (MDS) assessment, dated 10/01/19, revealed he had a moderate cognitive impairment and did not exhibit any behaviors. Resident #23 required set-up assistance with eating and was receiving hospice services. Review of the care plan, dated 10/09/19, revealed he had an activity of daily living deficit and required assistance from staff with meals. Observation on 10/16/19 at 8:34 A.M. revealed Resident #23 was reclined in his recliner watching television and drinking a nutritional supplement. His breakfast tray was out of reach. Resident #23's breakfast plate was on his portable side table that was perpendicular to his recliner and out of reach for the reclined resident. On 10/16/19 at 8:39 A.M., Resident #23 attempted to grab his oatmeal and in the process, accidentally scooted it further away. He then put his hand on his head and looked at his lap. Interview on 10/16/19 at 8:41 A.M. with Resident #23 revealed the resident shook his head and stated, no in response to the question if he could reach his oatmeal. During an observation on 10/16/19 at 8:54 A.M., Resident #23 was reclined in his recliner, staring at his lap. His breakfast was untouched. There was no milk in his cereal, no straw was in his milk, and no other covered food containers were opened. Observation and interview on 10/16/19 at 9:03 A.M. with State Tested Nursing Assistant (STNA) #10 stated while he was not the aid for Resident #23 today, he had cared for him several times in the past. STNA #10 confirmed Resident #23 required set-up assistance from staff for eating. STNA #10 confirmed Resident #23's tray was not set up to his care needs. STNA #10 stated he would have changed Resident #23's position from being reclined, to sitting up right and then move his portable side-table (continued on next page) Any deficiency statement ending with an asterisk (*) denotes a deficiency which the institution may be excused from correcting providing it is determined that other safeguards provide sufficient protection to the patients.

F 0677 Provide care and assistance to perform activities of daily living for any resident who is unable. Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Based on observation, medical record review, staff interview and facility policy and procedure review, the facility failed to ensure Resident #26, who was dependent on staff for personal hygiene, received adequate assistance with nail care. This affected one (#26) of five residents reviewed for activities of daily living. Residents Affected - Few Findings include: Review of Resident #26's medical record revealed an admission date of 07/09/15. Diagnoses included Alzheimer's disease and osteoarthritis. Review of the quarterly Minimum Data Set (MDS) assessment, dated 10/01/19, revealed the resident had unclear speech, usually understood others, usually made herself understood and had a moderate cognitive deficit. Review of the mood and behavior revealed the resident had indicators of depression and displayed no behaviors. The resident required extensive assistance of two staff for personal hygiene. Review of the resident's plan of care, dated 10/09/19, revealed the resident had a self-care performance deficit.

F 0689 Ensure that a nursing home area is free from accident hazards and provides adequate supervision to prevent accidents. Level of Harm - Actual harm Residents Affected - Few **NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on observation, medical record review, review of facility investigation, review of staff statements, review of a facility policy, family interview and staff interview, the facility failed to ensure residents were provided adequate assistance during transfers. Actual harm occurred on 01/08/19 when Resident #8, who required extensive assistance from two staff using a Hoyer lift was pivot transferred and subsequently repositioned in a Broda (specialized chair) by one staff resulting in a femur fracture requiring surgical repair. In addition, the facility failed to ensure Resident #32 had interventions in place to ensure she can safely transfer to and from her wheelchair, which placed the resident at risk for potential harm. This affected two residents (#8 and #32) of three residents reviewed for accidents. Findings include: 1. Review of Resident #8's medical record revealed an original admission date of 12/27/16 with the latest readmission of 01/13/19 with re-admitting diagnoses of osteoarthritis, dementia, and displaced comminuted fracture of shaft of right femur. Record review revealed the resident was receiving Hospice services. Review of the resident's plan of care, dated 01/10/17 revealed the resident had a self-care performance deficit related to impaired mobility and cognition. An intervention, initiated on 01/29/18 revealed the resident was totally dependent on staff for transferring with a Hoyer (mechanical) lift. The care plan did not include any other methods for transferring the resident. Review of Hospice plan of care documentation, dated 05/01/18 revealed staff were to assist with transfers. The plan did not specify the level of assistance needed or how staff were to assist. Review of the quarterly Minimum Data Set (MDS) 3.0 assessment, dated 10/08/18, revealed the resident was non-ambulatory, required extensive assistance from two staff for bed mobility and transfers and had functional limitation in range of motion to the upper and lower extremities on both sides. Review of the 01/08/18 discharge MDS 3.0 assessment revealed the resident had severely impaired cognition, was non-ambulatory and required extensive assistance from two staff for bed mobility and transfers. Review of a progress note, dated 01/08/19 at 5:35 P.M. and authored by Registered Nurse (RN) #13 revealed she was summoned to the resident's room by a State Tested Nursing Assistant (STNA). The STNA stated, she transferred the resident from her bed to her Broda chair and when she was repositioning her she heard a crack sound on her right leg. Upon assessment the resident's right leg was internally rotated and the resident was grimacing and verbalized pain. The resident was given as needed Tylenol for pain. The resident's physician was notified and an order was obtained for an x-ray. The results of the x-ray revealed acute mid shaft fracture. The resident was sent to the local emergency room (ER) and was admitted for treatment. Hospital documentation reflected the resident had sustained a displaced comminuted fracture of shaft of right femur (a displaced fracture occurs when the bone snaps into two or more parts; if the bone is in many pieces it is called a comminuted fracture) Review of the facility incident report dated 01/08/19 at 5:03 P.M. and revised on 01/09/19 at 9:31 A.M. revealed under the nursing description was the progress note dated 01/08/19 at 5:35 P.M. by RN (continued on next page) FORM CMS-2567 (02/99) Previous Versions Obsolete Event ID: Facility ID: 365560 If continuation sheet Page 4 of 13 Printed: 05/15/2026 Form Approved OMB No. 0938-0391 Department of Health & Human Services Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services STATEMENT OF DEFICIENCIES AND PLAN OF CORRECTION (X1) PROVIDER/SUPPLIER/CLIA IDENTIFICATION NUMBER: (X2) MULTIPLE CONSTRUCTION 365560 B.

F 0689 Level of Harm - Actual harm Residents Affected - Few #13. The report indicated the immediate action taken was the squad was called to transport the resident to the local emergency room for treatment. The incident report indicated no injuries were observed at the time of the incident and the resident had negative vocalizations, facial expressions, body language and consolability indicating pain. However, this was not consistent with the nursing progress note which documented the resident's right leg was internally rotated and the resident was grimacing, verbalized pain and was medicated with Tylenol. Review of an undated signed hand written statement completed by STNA #5 revealed, I, [STNA #5] was helping the resident with transfers from bed to her broda chair, when I tried to reposition her in the broda, I heard a crack sound and I called the nurse. Review of the typed statement with a drawing dated 01/08/19 and titled, Statement of Event revealed, STNA #5 was getting Resident #8 up for lunch. It was after 11:00 A.M. She was in bed. The STNA changed her brief and finished dressing her. The statement documented the resident normally stands up and will bear weight on her feet and pivot. The STNA sat the resident up on the side of the bed and the resident put her arms around the STNA's neck. The STNA hugged her and pivoted her into the Broda chair. The STNA documented the resident and herself transferred body to body. This statement revealed the resident did not indicate any pain at that time. After the STNA sat her in the chair she reclined the back of the chair and then positioned the resident's legs. The STNA documented she heard a pop sound and it wasn't the chair. The STNA started looking, and the resident said, Oh my foot. The STNA then went to get RN #13. The statement was signed respectfully submitted STNA #5 and had the STNA's signature. Review of the acute care hospital documentation dated 01/10/19 revealed the resident was seen for right leg pain and according to her family the resident was being transferred from her bed to her wheelchair when the facility heard a pop and a deformity to the right leg was observed. The resident was seen, evaluated and was diagnosed with a femoral shaft fracture that needed stabilization with a retrograde IM nail (surgical repair). The hospital documentation revealed the resident's baseline was bed bound and non-ambulatory. Record review revealed a physical therapy evaluation was completed following the incident on 01/17/19. The evaluation reflected the resident sustained a fracture during a stand pivot transfer (SPT) with STNA. The evaluation form revealed At baseline Pt completed SPT with max A (assist) or used Hoyer lift for transfers. The evaluation did not contain any additional information as to how the resident's baseline was determined or provide any additional information as to when staff should be using a Hoyer lift versus a stand pivot transfer. Review of a Progressive Discipline Form, dated 01/19/19 revealed STNA #5 received a final written warning for substandard performance. The form documented the STNA failed to follow the care guide while delivering resident care resulting in injury to the resident (Resident #8). Review of the resident's most current MDS 3.0 assessment dated [DATE] revealed the resident had clear speech, sometimes understood others, sometimes made herself understood and had a severe cognitive deficit as indicated by a Brief Interview for Mental Status (BIMS) score of five. The assessment revealed the resident required extensive assistance of two staff for transfers. On 10/15/19 at 11:44 A.M. Resident #8 was observed sitting in a Broda chair with her legs elevated and bilateral heel protectors in place. The resident was observed with bilateral hand contractures.

F 0689 communicate with the surveyor. Level of Harm - Actual harm On 10/15/19 at 2:26 P.M., an interview with Resident #8's family member revealed the resident had limited ability to respond to questions due to her cognition but at times could answer yes/no questions. During the interview a concern regarding a fracture the resident sustained in January 2019 was shared. During the interview, the family member revealed the resident required the use of a Hoyer lift to transfer and staff normally used the Hoyer lift. However, an STNA had transferred her by pivot transfer instead of using the Hoyer lift and the resident ended up with a femur fracture which required surgery resulting in screws and a rod to repair it. Residents Affected - Few On 10/16/19 at 3:07 P.M., an interview with the Director of Nursing (DON) revealed at 9:30 A.M. on 01/08/19 Resident #5 was being transferred by one STNA, STNA #5 using a pivot type transfer. The DON verified at the time of the incident the resident had a plan of care in place that reflected the use of a Hoyer lift for transfers. The DON indicated during the transfer process while repositioning the resident in the Broda chair, the STNA lifted the resident's legs and felt that something wasn't right with her leg and she notified the nurse immediately. She said she was not the DON at the time of the incident but reviewing the investigation, this is what she felt had occurred. On 10/17/19 at 10:50 A.M., an interview with the Administrator revealed prior to the incident on 01/08/19 the resident had a plan of care in place which reflected she required a Hoyer lift for transfers. The Administrator revealed the assignment sheet for Resident #5 documented the resident required extensive assistance of one or two staff on the top line and Hoyer lift under it. The sheet failed to provide any guidance as to when staff should use what type of transfer assistance. The Administrator revealed she believed STNA #5 interpreted the sheet as the resident was either a one or two person assist. She said after the incident on 01/08/19 the care guide was update to reflect one or two assist using a Hoyer (mechanical) lift. 2. Review of the medical record of Resident #32 revealed an initial admission dated of 11/22/16. Diagnoses included pathological fracture of hip, anxiety disorder, major depressive disorder, abnormalities of gait and mobility and general weakness. Review of the quarterly Minimum Data Set (MDS) assessment, dated 09/24/19, revealed Resident #32 was cognitively intact and required the extensive assistance from one person for transfers. The resident used a walker and wheelchair and was participating in physical therapy. Review of the nursing progress notes, dated 06/13/19, revealed Resident #32 was being transferred to the wheelchair by a State Tested Nurse Aide (STNA) and hit her left lower leg on the wheelchair. Resident #32 had two small skin tears measure 2.5 centimeters (cm.) in length by 1.5 cm. in width and 1.5 cm. by 1.5 cm. and there was a moderate amount of bleeding. The wounds were cleaned and steri-strips were placed on both wounds. Further review of the nursing note revealed an intervention to add wrapped padding to the upper parts of the wheelchair to prevent any further injury. Review of the Health Center Wheelchair Check List, dated 06/13/19, revealed the resident was evaluated for a new wheelchair. Review of the care plan, dated 08/14/19, revealed the resident had an activity of daily living (ADL) self-care performance deficit, impaired mobility and impaired safety with interventions to assist the resident with showers, staff to turn and reposition in bed and the resident required the extensive assistance of staff for transfers.

F 0689 Level of Harm - Actual harm Review of the nursing progress note, dated 10/13/19, revealed the resident was being transferred into the wheelchair by an STNA and the resident received a skin tear to the left lower leg. The resident stated she was being transferred and something on the wheelchair gave her a skin tear. The note further revealed the wound was cleansed and the physician was notified for an order for a dressing. Residents Affected - Few Review of a work order, dated 10/13/19, revealed the wheelchair was being placed in an office to check for any sharp surfaces. Review of the physician's orders, dated 10/14/19, revealed an order to treat the skin tear to the left lower leg and cleanse with normal saline, pat dry, apply Adaptic, dry dressing and wrap with Kerlix daily until healed. Review of the undated weekly non-pressure ulcer tracking log revealed Resident #32 had two skin tears on 10/13/19. The first skin tear was located on the left shin and documented to be 3.2 cm. x 2.2 cm. and the second tear was located on the distal shin measuring 2.25 cm. x 1.0 cm. and a small amount of serosanguineous discharge was noted. Interview and observation with Resident #32 on 10/15/19 at 3:30 P.M. revealed there was white gauze wrapped and taped on her left shin area. The resident stated she hit her leg on the wheelchair when getting out of bed. The resident confirmed that the STNA was present and assisting her during the transfer. Observation of Resident #32 on 10/16/19 at 2:31 P.M. revealed the resident was in her wheelchair being pushed down the hallway with no padding noted to the wheelchair to prevent further skin tears. Interview with the Director of Nursing (DON) on 10/17/19 at 2:29 P.M. revealed Resident #32's wheelchair was changed out by physical therapy as they felt the new chair was a better fit. The DON verified there was no padding on the new wheelchair as the brake on the new wheelchair was in a higher location than the old chair. The DON confirmed that the resident was in the new wheelchair when the second skin tear incident occurred on 10/13/19 and the wheelchair was not padded to prevent further injury and no new intervention was in place to prevent further injury after the 10/13/19 incident. Interview with the Administrator on 10/17/19 at 3:32 P.M. revealed Resident #32's old wheelchair was still locked up in an office and verified there was no padding on the wheelchair Resident #32 was using. Review of the facility's policy titled Event Management Program, dated 10/16/19, revealed there is a summary of each event with root cause and intervention to prevent reoccurrence in the clinical record and new interventions are put in place to prevent reoccurrence.

Review of Resident #20's medical record revealed an admission date of 04/27/17 with diagnoses including major depressive disorder, anxiety and dementia. Review of the quarterly MDS assessment, dated 07/30/19, revealed the resident had clear speech, understands others, makes herself understood and had a severe cognitive deficit. Review of the mood and behavior revealed the resident displays indicators of depression and displayed no behaviors. The MDS indicated the resident received antidepressant medications. Review of the plan of care, dated 05/22/17, revealed the resident has a diagnoses of depression and anxiety and the resident was at risk of a mood decline and reported the resident experienced lack of interest/pleasure in doing things. Interventions included to administer medications as ordered, help the resident in conversation to identify interests and what brings her pleasure, monitor mood symptoms and consult physician/psychologist if symptoms worsen, monitor for symptoms of depression and consult physician/psychologist, attempt non-pharmacological interventions, offer activities of interest and offer opportunity to verbalize thoughts and feelings. Review of the resident's monthly physician's orders for September 2019 indicated an order for Zoloft (a medication to treat depression) 50 milligrams (mg.) by mouth daily for depression. Review of the progress notes from 05/03/19 to 10/10/19 revealed no identified target behaviors or monitoring of the target behaviors. On 10/17/19 at 8:34 A.M., an interview with the Administrator revealed the facility charts behaviors by exception in the progress notes. She said they also document behaviors on the 24 hour report sheet and the interdisciplinary team (IDT) summarizes the behaviors with a weekly note. She verified Resident #20's medical record lacked monitoring of the resident's target behaviors. Review of a facility policy titled, Antipsychotic Medication Use, last revised 02/2014, revealed the residents would only receive antipsychotic medications when necessary to treat specific conditions for which they are indicated and effective. The attending physcian and other staff would gather and document information to clarify a resident's behavior, mood, function, medical condition, specific symptoms, and risk to the resident and others. 3. Review of the medical record of Resident #31 revealed an admission date of 09/17/19 with diagnoses including insomnia.

F 0758 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Some Review of the nursing progress note, dated 10/06/19, revealed Resident #31 had trouble sleeping and medications given as ordered. There were no further nursing progress notes provided regarding the resident's use of Ambien or behaviors or insomnia and the medical record was absent for any documented evidence of a gradual dose reduction attempt being done related to the use of Ambien. Review of the medication administration record (MAR), dated 10/2019, revealed Resident #31 received fourteen doses of the Ambien. The record was absent for any documentation of medication monitoring, non-pharmacological interventions, and behavior monitoring. Interview with the Director of Nursing (DON) on 10/16/19 at 5:59 P.M. revealed that all documentation of non-pharmacology interventions, behaviors, and drug monitoring are documented by exception in the progress notes by the nurse and the DON was aware that nurses have not been documenting properly. The DON further stated that behaviors and non-pharmacological measures should be documented in a resident's charge when giving a psychoactive medication and confirmed there was no documentation of behaviors or non-pharmacological measures in Resident #31's medical record. Review of the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) drug label, approved on 04/23/08, revealed Ambien is indicated for short-term treatment of insomnia and a need to re-evaluate if insomnia persists after seven to ten days. Based on staff interview, medical record review, review of the Food and Drug Administration drug label and review of the facility's policy, the facility failed to identify and monitor target behaviors and implement non-pharmacological interventions for psychotropic medication use for the residents. This affected four (#10, #20, #23 and #31) of five residents reviewed for unnecessary medications. The facility identified 11 residents who were prescribed psychotropic medications. Findings include: 1. Review of Resident #23's medical record revealed he was admitted to the facility on [DATE]. Diagnoses included dementia without behavioral disturbance, anxiety disorder and major depressive disorder. Review of the Minimum Data Set (MDS) assessment, dated 10/01/19, revealed he had a moderate cognitive impairment and did not exhibit any behaviors.
