Level of Harm - Actual harm
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
medical record review, physician and staff interviews, review of the facility policies and information from the
National Pressure Ulcer Advisory Panel, the facility failed to accurately and timely assess a resident's
nutritional status with decreased meal intakes, abnormal laboratory values, and two new in-house acquired
unstageable pressure ulcers (slough and/or eschar: Known but not stageable due to coverage of wound
bed by slough and/or eschar). Additionally, the facility failed to provide a diet to meet the resident's
estimated energy and protein needs. Actual Harm occurred to Resident #05 when the facility was providing
less calories and protein than the resident's estimated energy and protein needs resulting in the resident
losing 4.7 percent weight loss in one month and the two unstageable pressure ulcers deteriorating. This
affected one (Resident #05) of three residents reviewed for nutrition. The facility census was 76.
Residents Affected - Few
Findings include:
Closed medical record review for Resident #05 revealed an admission date of 07/19/23. Diagnoses
included cerebral palsy, heart disease with history of malnutrition, stroke, osteopenia, hemiplegia, and
hemiparesis.
Review of the admission physician orders revealed Resident #05 received a nocturnal nutritional tube
feeding. On 07/22/23, the nocturnal nutritional tube feeding was discontinued, and 200 milliliter (ml) water
flushes every four hours was started. This would provide a total of 800 ml water daily. Resident #05 was to
be on a pureed diet with liquid nutritional supplements 240 ml three times daily. On 07/27/23, the speech
therapist was treating Resident #05 and the resident's diet was upgraded to mechanical soft with nectar
thickened liquids.
Review of the Minimum Data Set (MDS) assessment dated [DATE] revealed Resident #05 had severely
impaired cognition and required extensive assistance from staff with eating.
Review of the care plan dated 07/21/23 revealed Resident #05 had the potential for alteration in
nutrition/hydration related to altered texture and gastrostomy tube feeding. Interventions were to encourage
good nutrition and hydration to promote healthy skin.
Review of a comprehensive metabolic panel dated 08/14/23 revealed Resident #05's glucose level was low
at 58 milligrams/deciliter (normal was 65 to 99) and albumin was low at 2.8 grams per deciliter (normal was
3.5 to 5.5; indicating low serum protein stores necessary for skin integrity).
Review of the nutrition assessment completed by Registered Dietitian (RD) #90 dated 08/31/23 revealed
Resident #05 had a decreased appetite with intakes varying from 25-75 percent. Nutritional

interventions were to start nutritional ice cream supplements three times daily at meals and the liquid
supplements discontinued due to poor acceptance by Resident #05. The nutrition assessment did not
mention the abnormal comprehensive metabolic panel dated 08/14/23.
Review of the weekly body audit dated 09/09/23 revealed Resident #05 developed two new pressure areas
on the sacrum and distal buttocks that were both unstageable wounds. The previous weekly body audit
dated 08/28/23 revealed Resident #05's skin was intact.
Review of the nutrition assessment by RD #90 completed on 09/29/23 revealed this was first time Resident
#05 was nutritionally assessed after Resident #05 developed two unstageable pressure ulcers on 09/09/23.
The resident's weight was 149 pounds on 09/01/23 with no weight loss and Body Mass Index (BMI) of 27.2.
There was no additional weight recorded for Resident #05 from 09/02/23 to 09/29/23. The resident was
dependent on one staff assistance for feeding mechanical soft diet, nectar thickened liquids with nutritional
ice cream cups at all meals, with intakes varying from 26 to 100 percent. Resident #05's unstageable
pressure ulcers to the sacrum and coccyx were declining. Liquid protein supplements at 30 ml twice daily
were recommended for wound support. The resident continued to receive 800 ml of water daily via the
gastrostomy tube. The nutrition assessment did not include the calculations of the resident's increased
calorie and protein nutritional needs due to the unstageable pressure ulcers, did not accurately reflect the
resident's meal intake, and did not mention the abnormal comprehensive metabolic panel dated 08/14/23.
Review of Resident #05's weight record revealed the admission weight was 146 pounds on 07/27/23, 148
pounds on 08/10/23, 149 pounds on 09/01/23, and 142 pounds on 10/03/23. On 10/03/23, Resident #05
lost seven pounds (4.6 percent) in one month.
Review of the wound documentation dated 10/03/23 revealed Resident #05's two unstageable wounds
were combined and Resident #05 now had one unstageable pressure ulcer. The wound measured 7.0
centimeter (cm) in length by 6.8 cm in width and unable to determine depth and the wound had declined.
Review of the meal intake records, from the time the two unstageable areas were identified on 09/09/23
until 10/03/23 when Resident #05's pressure areas were deteriorating and the seven pounds weight loss to
142 pounds, revealed Resident #05 was consuming less than half of his meals for 63 of the 80
opportunities which was equivalent to 78.5 percent, 51 to 75 percent of his meal consumed for 14 of the 80
opportunities equivalent to 17.5 percent of his meals and consumed more than 75 percent of his meals only
three of the 80 opportunities equivalent to about four percent of his meals. Resident #05's daily estimated
nutritional needs during this period were 2,010 kcals based on 30 calories per kilogram body weight, 100 to
134 grams of protein based on 1.5 to 2.0 gram per kilogram of body weight with unstageable pressure
areas, and 2,010 ml of fluid based on 30 ml per kilogram of body weight. Based on the meal intake records
including meals, nutritional supplements, and snacks, the resident's average daily intake during this period
provided approximately 1,200 kilocalories (kcals) (60% of his estimated energy needs) and 42 grams of
protein (31 to 42 percent of his estimated protein needs) daily.
Review of the nursing progress note dated 10/10/23 revealed the resident's responsible family member
contacted the Director of Nursing and expressed concerns Resident #05 was not eating well and he would
like the tube feeding restarted. A physician's order for Jevity 1.5 at 60 ml for 12 hours nocturnally with 200
ml water flushes every six hours was initiated on 10/10/23. On 10/10/23, Dietary Technician (Diet Tech) #84
noted the tube feeding provided 1080 calories, 46 grams of protein and a total of 1347 ml of fluid daily. On
10/12/23, Diet Tech #84 noted the resident was not tolerating

anything by mouth except nectar thickened liquids and requested the tube feeding be changed to
continuous Isosource 1.5 ml at 60 ml plus the water flush. On 10/12/23, Resident #05 was found
unresponsive and diagnosed with a urinary tract infection, acute encephalopathy, and hyperammonemia.
Telephone interview with Physician #98 on 10/24/23 at 1:30 P.M. revealed Resident #05's pressure areas
were not healing, and the resident continued to decline until he was hospitalized on [DATE].
Interview with Registered Nurse (RN) #80 on 10/24/23 at 2:28 P.M. verified Resident #05 received very little
nutrition via the tube feeding during his entire stay.
Telephone interview with Diet Tech #84 on 10/24/23 at 4:00 P.M. verified she was notified Resident #05 had
two unstageable pressure ulcers via electronic mail on 09/13/23 which was communicated to RD #90 on a
shared spreadsheet. Diet Tech #84 stated she was in the facility weekly to monitor the resident's nutritional
status.
Telephone interview with RD #90 on 10/24/23 at 5:08 P.M. revealed she coordinated with Diet Tech #84 and
completed assessments for high-risk residents with pressure ulcers, tube feedings and receiving dialysis
during her one-to-three-hour monthly visits. RD #90 verified her assessment on 09/29/23 had no new
calculations for Resident #05's nutritional needs with the two unstageable pressure ulcers. She verified her
recommendation for liquid protein 30 ml twice daily but did not specify the nutrition the supplement would
provide to the resident. RD #90 verified her note did not specify calories, protein, and fluid provided to the
resident from meals, nutrition supplements and snacks he consumed by mouth. RD #90 stated the
resident's seven-pound weight loss from the previous month identified on 10/03/23 was not addressed
because it was not considered significant until it was five percent or more weight change.
Interview with [NAME] #92 on 10/25/23 at 8:50 A.M. revealed she was Resident #05's niece. The resident
was eating well at home and received a nocturnal tube feeding for years every night prior to his admission.
During his stay at the facility, he declined with the pressure ulcers and did not eat well especially the past
month. The resident went home from the hospital on [DATE].
A second telephone interview with RD #90 on 10/26/23 at 9:30 A.M. confirmed she was not aware Resident
#05 was consuming 50 percent or less at most meals from 09/09/23 through 0/03/23. RD #90 verified
Resident #05 was not consuming enough nutrition to meet his estimated energy and protein needs. RD #90
verified she did not review and address the complete metabolic panel concerning the low glucose and low
albumin on 08/14/23.
Review of the facility policy titled Nutritional Assessment, revised 2017, revealed a nutritional assessment
included the current nutritional status and risk factors for impaired nutrition was conducted for each resident
by the multidisciplinary team as indicated by a change in condition that placed the resident at risk for
impaired nutrition. The assessment was a process that included gathering and interpreting data, using the
data to help define meaningful interventions for the resident at risk including a description of the resident's
usual intake and appetite, any reduced appetite or weight loss, recent events that may have affected
resident's nutritional status, laboratory results and general appearance of the resident. The need for enteral
nutrition was periodically reassessed for appropriateness and effectiveness based on the resident's
requirements for nutrient intake.
Review of the facility policy titled Pressure Ulcers/Skin Breakdown, revised April 2018, revealed staff should
attempt to maintain stable weight and provide 1.2 to 1.5 grams of protein per kilogram

Level of Harm - Actual harm
Review of the National Pressure Ulcer Advisor Panel (NPUAP) 2019 revealed nutrition screening should be
conducted for those at risk of pressure injury and comprehensive nutrition assessments should be
conducted for adults screened to be at risk for malnutrition and at risk of a pressure injury and for all adults
with a pressure injury. If nutritional requirement cannot be achieved by normal dietary intake, offer
calorie-and protein-fortified foods and/or nutritional supplements to the usual diets of adults at risk for
pressure injury and are malnourished/at risk for malnutrition. Provide high-calorie, high protein, arginine,
zinc, and antioxidant oral nutritional supplements or enteral formulas to adults with Stage II or greater
pressure injury and are malnourished/at risk of malnutrition. Develop and implement individualized nutrition
care plans for those with or at risk of a pressure injury and who are malnourished or at risk of malnutrition.
