F 0580 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Few Immediately tell the resident, the resident's doctor, and a family member of situations (injury/decline/room, etc.) that affect the resident. **NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on record review, interview and policy review, the facility failed to notify a resident's representative of a change in condition and failed to notify the resident's representative and physician of test results timely. This affected one (Resident #45) of three residents reviewed for a change in condition. The facility census was 42. Findings include: Review of the closed medical record for Resident #45 revealed he was admitted to the facility on [DATE], transferred to the hospital on [DATE], and discharged on 11/17/23. Diagnoses included cerebral infarction due to embolism of unspecified cerebral artery, cerebral edema, hemiplegia and hemiparesis following cerebral infarction affecting left non-dominant side, occlusion and stenosis of unspecified carotid artery, acute embolism and thrombosis of left femoral vein, chronic atrial fibrillation, other low back pain, atherosclerosis of coronary artery bypass graft (s) without angina pectoris, congestive heart failure, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, rheumatoid arthritis, other intervertebral disc degeneration lumbar region, old myocardial infarction, hyperlipidemia, and major depressive disorder. Review of the nursing progress note dated 11/13/23 at 3:06 P.M. revealed Resident #45 reported having pain in his lower abdomen. Resident #45 stated he last had a bowel movement the previous day that was loose. The on-call provider was notified and gave an order for a kidney, ureter, and bladder (KUB) X-ray. There is no documentation that Resident #45's representative was notified of the X-ray order. Review of the nursing progress notes on 11/14/23 between 5:02 A.M. and 11:47 A.M. revealed no documentation that the physician or Resident #45's representative had been notified of the KUB X-ray results. During interview on 12/11/23 at 12:55 P.M., the Assistant Director of Nursing (ADON) #2 verified no documentation in Resident #45's medical record of notification to the physician or Resident #45's representative of his change in condition or the X-ray results. Review of the facility policy titled Notification of Changes, dated 09/29/22, revealed the facility must inform the resident, consult with the resident's physician and/or notify the resident's family member or legal representative when there is a change requiring such notification.

F 0684 Provide appropriate treatment and care according to orders, resident’s preferences and goals. Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm **NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on of open and closed medical record review, staff interviews, resident representative interview, review of hospital records, review of the death certificate, and review of facility policy, the facility failed to appropriately assess and provide timely intervention for Resident #45 following a change in condition. This resulted in Immediate Jeopardy and placed Resident #45 at risk for serious life-threatening harm, negative health outcomes, and/or death when on [DATE] at approximately 3:06 P.M., Resident #45 complained of lower abdominal pain to Assistant Director of Nursing (ADON) #02 and was unable to tolerate palpation to his abdomen. After Resident #45 complained of abdominal pain, his bowel sounds were not assessed and the physician ordered imaging results, which indicated a possible bowel obstruction, and the results were not relayed to the physician timely. Consequently, Resident #45 was transferred to the hospital on [DATE] at 11:47 A.M. at the request of Resident #45 and his representative and was treated for severe sepsis before passing away on [DATE]. This affected one (Resident #45) of three residents reviewed for a change in condition. The facility census was 42.

Review of the progress note dated [DATE] at 11:50 P.M. revealed Resident #45 complained of nausea and a new order for Zofran 4 mg as needed every six hours was ordered. Review of the medication administration notes dated [DATE] at 12:52 A.M. and 3:23 A.M. revealed Resident #45 complained of constipation and requested as needed rectal suppository, and the administration was noted as effective due to the resident having a medium bowel movement. There is no documentation related to an assessment of Resident #45 ' s bowels or that Resident #45 ' s representative had been notified. Review of the nursing progress note dated [DATE] at 3:06 P.M. revealed Resident #45 reported having pain in his lower abdomen. Resident #45 stated he last had a bowel movement the previous day that was loose. The on-call provider was notified and gave an order for a kidney, ureter, and bladder (KUB) X-ray. Review of the KUB X-ray results electronically signed by the interpreting physician on [DATE] at 5:02 A.M. documented Resident #45 had dilated loops of bowel, colonic fecal residual noted, an ileus type pattern favored, and an obstruction not excluded. The results recommended a computed tomography (CT) scan or follow-up as clinically warranted. Review of the nursing progress notes on [DATE] between 5:02 A.M. and 11:47 A.M. revealed no documentation that the physician or Resident #45 ' s representative had been notified of the KUB X-ray results. Review of the nursing progress note dated [DATE] at 11:47 A.M. revealed Resident #45 complained of severe abdominal pain and being unable to urinate. Resident #45 and his representative requested for him to be sent to the emergency room (ER) for further evaluation. Certified Nurse Practitioner (CNP) #200 was contacted, and Resident #45 was transferred to the hospital. Review of the hospital triage complaint dated [DATE] revealed Resident #45 presented to the ER with a complaint of abdominal pain that was a ten out of ten across his lower abdomen, which started yesterday morning. Resident #45 reported the pain was sharp, constant, and gradually worsening. Resident #45 expressed he had been constipated for the last two or three days. The complaint indicated Resident #45 ' s abdomen was distended with involuntary guarding particularly all across the lower abdomen and there was tenderness to percussion. Per the triage complaint, Resident #45 had a CT scan that noted free air and fluid in the abdominal cavity, which was compatible with perforation. The suspected perforation was located within the sigmoid colon (portion of large intestine before reaching the rectum), and secondary to acute sigmoid colonic diverticulitis (occurs when colon wall protrusions become infected; usually caused by a blockage of the inside space of a structure such as intestine or obstruction from stool; can burst open and spill fecal matter into the bloodstream causing sepsis). The CT scan also noted an associated small bowel obstruction. The triage complaint listed diagnoses of pneumoperitoneum, acute renal failure, severe sepsis, small bowel obstruction, abdominal aortic aneurysm without rupture, complete intestinal obstruction, and diverticulitis of sigmoid colon for Resident #45. Resident #45 was transferred to another ER for further evaluation and treatment.

Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Review of the hospital attending note dated [DATE] revealed Resident #45 appeared visibly uncomfortable and had a nasogastric tube with bilious output (bile). The physician relayed to Resident #45 regarding concerns for perforated colon and how sick he is and could continue to become if he does not get prompt surgical intervention. The note indicated that treatment was discussed with Resident #45 and his wife, including the possible complications and concerns related to Resident #45 ' s medical history and current medical conditions. It was noted Resident #45 declined to pursue aggressive treatment with his wife in agreement. The recommended treatment plan was antibiotics administered intravenously as Resident #45 and his wife were likely pursuing comfort care. Residents Affected - Few Review of the death certificate dated [DATE] revealed Resident #45 died on [DATE] from pneumoperitoneum due to sigmoid diverticulitis at the hospital. During a telephone interview on [DATE] at 10:01 A.M. with Resident #45 ' s representative stated Resident #45 was septic and in organ failure when he arrived at the hospital. The representative stated Resident #45 had started feeling sick on [DATE], complained of pain, and had vomited what he described to her as grass green throw-up. Surgery was an option, but there were concerns related to Resident #45 ' s prognosis because of his condition. Resident #45 ' s representative stated no staff from the facility alerted her to his condition when he first started feeling sick, and she only received information from Resident #45 via telephone. During an interview on [DATE] at 12:55 P.M., ADON #02 stated Resident #45 reported to her that he was having pain in his lower abdomen. ADON #02 stated when she went to palpate his stomach that Resident #45 would not allow her to palpate much or with pressure due to pain. ADON #02 expressed that she contacted the on-call provider and received an order for the KUB to determine if Resident #45 had a blockage. ADON #02 indicated Resident #45 had some bowel movements that were loose. ADON #02 advised the results from the KUB were received the next day, but that she was unaware what night shift had done with the results. ADON #02 stated she contacted Resident #45 ' s representative when she saw the results, and advised his wife that it was up to her if she wanted him sent out. ADON #02 stated she contacted the provider for Resident #45 to be sent out for evaluation. ADON #02 stated it would be normal to listen to bowel sounds when a resident had complaints like Resident #45 ' s, but ADON #02 confirmed she had not listened to Resident #45 ' s bowel sounds on [DATE]. ADON #02 also verified no documentation in Resident #45 ' s medical record of notification to his representative of his change in condition, or to the physician and Resident #45 ' s wife regarding the KUB results. During an interview via telephone on [DATE] at 2:14 P.M., LPN #54 stated she had received report at the start of her shift on [DATE] between 7:00 A.M. to 7:30 A.M. that Resident #45 had a KUB, and the results indicated he was impacted.

The DON verified the intervention on Resident #45 ' s care plan related to constipation was to administer medications as ordered. The DON and MDS LPN #72 advised bowel assessments would be conducted based on clinical judgement and on a case-by-case basis but were unable to elaborate how facility staff should know when such assessment should be performed. The DON advised Resident #45 had two bowel movements on [DATE] that were documented as constipated/hard. During an interview via telephone on [DATE] at 9:08 A.M., CNP #200 stated she had been made aware that Resident #45 had complained of abdominal pain on [DATE] and had a KUB. CNP #200 indicated a possible obstruction would be an urgent situation like appendicitis, and that a resident should be sent out within a matter of hours following review of X-ray results, and even earlier than that based on individual symptoms. CNP #200 inquired as to the timeframe between when the X-ray results were received by the facility and when Resident #45 was transferred out to the hospital because based on her understanding Resident #45 was transferred out shortly following review of the X-ray results. Review of the facility policy titled Notification of Changes, dated [DATE], revealed the facility must inform the resident, consult with the resident ' s physician and/or notify the resident ' s family member or legal representative when there is a change requiring such notification. The policy indicated circumstances requiring notification included significant change in the resident ' s physical, mental or psychosocial condition such as deterioration in health, mental or psychosocial status, and circumstances that require a need to alter treatment.
