The resident ate everything on the right side of her plate and left everything on the left side uneaten. Resident #37 was scraping the bottom of the empty right side of the plate, totally ignoring the food on the left side as if it did not exist. She consumed 100% coffee which was also on the right side. Upon surveyor intervention, Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) #746 observed the resident's actions and as LPN #746 observed Resident #37 eat she revealed the only visual issues she was aware that the resident had was needed glasses and did not have them on. Surveyor asked the nurse to reposition the residents plate so that the food that was on the left was now on the right. The nurse turned the plate 180 degrees. The resident immediately stated oh, became excited and picked up her spoon and began to eat. The nurse also moved the residents cake from the left to the right. The resident became excited about the cake but kept eating the pork and the mashed potatoes. As the resident ate, the plate slid across the table and away from the right side of vision. Resident #37 stopped eating. STNA #711 who had finished feeding Resident #54, came over and moved the residents cake back to the left side, and was unaware the nurse had moved the cake to the right and within the residents line of sight.

She stated the resident doesn't recognize the left side of her body (Hemineglect), confirming staff need to be aware that items should be on the ride side of Resident #37 in her line of vision.

This affected one (Resident #43) of three residents reviewed for accident hazards.
Findings include: Resident #43 was admitted to the facility on [DATE] with diagnoses including Alzheimer's disease, vascular dementia, and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. Review of Resident #43's signed smoking contract, revealed on 12/15/20 the resident's son signed the facility's smoking policy. The resident smoking policy and standard procedures dated 04/01/16 revealed a supervised smoker is a resident that is unable to demonstrate safe smoking habits including smoking materials management, lighting, controlling cigarette ash and extinguishing smoking materials and requires staff supervision when smoking. Also, sharing, bartering, or selling smoking materials with others, including other residents is not permitted; non-compliance may result in a change to smoking status and/or discharged from the facility. Facility staff will: secure smoking materials in a locked area when not in use by the resident for both independent and supervised smokers. Smoking safety instructions for all smokers will include supervised smoking will be performed by a staff member. Review of the Resident #43's quarterly Minimum Data Set (MDS) 3.0 dated 04/02/21 revealed Resident #43 was cognitively impaired and required supervision ambulating in her room and in the hall. Resident #43's care plan dated 04/02/21 revealed she wished to smoke and had been assessed as a supervised smoker. Interventions included being oriented/reminded where the smoking area was and the posted times for supervised smoking, focusing on her hands during weekly skin checks to ensure there were no burns, monitor her safety during smoking, provide protective equipment of a smoking apron, and ensure smoking materials were secured. Observation on 05/24/21 at 2:06 P.M. revealed Resident #43 was sitting on the side of her bed with a lit cigarette in her right hand and a strong smell of the lit cigarette permeated the room and hall. Upon immediate surveyor intervention, Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) #706, who was standing at the medication cart located at the nurse's station, rushed to Resident $43's room. Resident #43 no longer had the lit cigarette in her hand but there were ashes on the floor by the bed where she was sitting. LPN #706 asked where the cigarette was and began looking in the bathroom. The extinguished cigarette was found in the trash can near the resident. The trash can was lined with a new clear trash bag and no other contents were in the trash can. Observation on 05/24/21 at 2:07 P.M. revealed LPN #706 was in the hall by the door that leads outside to the smoking area and another residents stated a resident gave Resident #43 a cigarette but did not know who the resident was. Interview on 05/24/21 at 2:10 P.M. with Resident #43 revealed she was very remorseful and begged to not tell her son. She could not remember if she was supervised during her smoke break when she begged a cigarette from another resident whom she could not identify.

Set up an ongoing quality assessment and assurance group to review quality deficiencies and develop corrective plans of action.
Based on record review and interview, the facility failed to implement a restorative nursing program after reviewing it as a systemic problem at the Quality Assurance and Assessment meeting. This affected six residents (#14, #37, #38, #47, #50 and #57) of six residents who were identified by the facility as needing a restorative nursing program.
Findings included: Record review was conducted of the facility document titled Quality Assessment and Performance Improvement Team Documentation, dated 04/14/2021. The identified problem was the restorative program. The goal was to develop a functional restorative program. The root causes for the lack of a restorative program were listed as COVID 19, not utilizing a process to enter restorative orders and write a restorative program, staffing challenges and not having a steady Director of Nursing since 12/25/2020. Interview was conducted on 05/25/2021 at 12:36 P.M. with Therapy Manager (TM) #765 who revealed there were currently six residents who were referred for restorative nursing programs (RNP) between 01/10/2020 and 04/16/2021 but there was currently no RNP. The therapy director said she had screened all six of them the morning of 05/25/2021 and they all remained appropriate for the same RNP and were without declines in there level of functioning. Interview was conducted on 05/27/2021 at 12:03 P.M. with the Administrator who revealed there had been interim Directors of Nursing (DON) filling in at the facility since the last DON resigned in December 2020 and prior to the current DON starting at the facility on 04/27/2021.

Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on record review, observation, and interview the facility failed to ensure a family member visiting Resident #182 adhered to the proper use of personal protective equipment in a quarantine room for droplet isolation for potential COVID 19, and also failed to ensure clean hoyer pad straps were stored without the straps sitting on the floor. This affected one resident (Resident #182) of three residents reviewed for transmission based precautions and had the potential to affect all 15 of 15 residents (Resident #7, #13, #29, #32, #53, #55,#54,#61, #62, #63, #67, #180, #181, #182, and #184) who used hoyer pads.
Residents Affected - Some
Findings included: 1. Record review was conducted for Resident #182 who was admitted to the facility on [DATE] with diagnoses including Alzheimer dementia and unspecified psychosis. The resident resided on the A unit which the facility identified as the isolation unit for newly admitted or readmitted residents. An observation and interview was conducted on 05/18/2021 at 11:48 A.M. of Resident #182 sitting in her room right beside a female visitor who was dressed in street clothing and wore a cloth face mask. On the door were posted signs indicating the resident was in droplet isolation and anyone entering the room should first put on a gown, gloves, eye protection and a medical grade face mask. The visitor identified herself as the resident's daughter and said she was never told by the staff she had to put on anything but her cloth face mask before entering her mom's room. Interview was conducted on 05/18/2021 at 11:49 A.M. with Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) #722 who was the assigned nurse on the A unit. He verified the visitor in Resident #182's room needed to be in full personal protective equipment (PPE) for droplet isolation and was in the room in only a cloth mask. LPN #722 said he was unaware the visitor was on the unit and he did not see her enter the room. Interview was conducted on 05/18/2021 at 12:08 P.M. with the Director of Nursing (DON) who verified the isolation rooms on the A unit were not to have visitors in the room without being in full PPE because the resident's on that unit did not have their COVID 19 vaccines. 2. Observation of the laundry area on 05/20/21 at 10:35 A.M. revealed 10 clean Hoyer pads hanging on the wall had their straps lying on the dirty floor next to the dusty broom and dust pan that was used to clean lint from under the dryers. Interviews on 05/20/21 at 10:35 A.M. Laundry Aide #795 and Account Manager #796 verified 10 clean Hoyer pad hanging on the wall were lying on the dirty floor next to a dusty broom and dust pan that was used to clean lint from under the dryers. Review of a facility provided list of residents who use Hoyer pads revealed the following residents used Hoyer pads: Resident 7, #13, #29, #32, #53, #55,#54,#61, #62, #63, #67, #180, #181, #182, and #184. Review of the infection control practices for laundry/linens policy, dated 10/25/18 revealed clean linen storage areas/carts will be covered when not in use.

Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm
Based on record review, observation and interviews, the facility failed to maintain a food processor, used to make pureed foods, in proper working order. This had the potential to affect all 10 residents (#8, #10, #19, #20, #27, #40, #53, #54, #62 and #184) on a pureed diet.
Residents Affected - Some
Findings included: Record review was conducted of the facility dinner menu for 05/19/2021. The main entree selection for the pureed diets included BBQ pork. A review of the pureed BBQ pork recipe showed a portion size was a half cup and the final product should be smooth. An observation was conducted with Culinary Director (CD) #704, District Manager (DM) #794 and [NAME] #738 on 05/19/21 from 2:49 P.M. to 3:47 P.M. of [NAME] #738 demonstrating how she prepared pureed BBQ pork for the dinner meal. [NAME] #738 used a seven quart Robo Coup R602Y Series E food processor to puree a premeasured amount of pork pieces in BBQ sauce she identified as being 13 half-cup portions. She dumped the entire amount into the Robo Coup and began blending the pork at 2:51 P.M. When asked by the surveyor what consistency she wanted the pureed pork, [NAME] #738 replied the consistency of smooth mashed potato. From 2:49 P.M. to 3:47 P.M. she stopped the processor eight times to sample the texture of the pureed pork along with DM #794. DM #794 gave directives each time to continue to process the pork because it still had small pieces of pork instead of a smooth consistency. The cook expressed agreement that it needed to process more. The surveyor asked the cook and DM #794 if the Robo Coup being used was what they usually used to make the pureed food. [NAME] #738 replied she had been using a different food processor that morning but it had been removed from the kitchen by DM #794 because it kept shutting off while using it. DM #794 explained he had taken it out of the kitchen for repairs because he wanted it looked at to make sure it was not shorting out. DM #794 added the food processor in use for the demonstration was passed around to any facility in his district in need of a back up. [NAME] #738 said DM #794 brought it into the kitchen that morning so the other could go out for repair. The surveyor was given a sample of the pureed pork at 3:47 P.M. and it was not the appropriate consistency for pureed as it had multiple rice sized pieces of intact pork within the pureed mixture. [NAME] #738 interjected she had used the other robot coupe that was sent out for repairs to prepare non BBQ pureed pork chops that morning and the consistency had come out like smooth pudding consistency. She pointed to CD#704 who was observed setting up the steam table and putting the pan of pureed, non-BBQ pork onto the steam table. The surveyor asked for a sample of it and the consistency was appropriate for the pureed diets. [NAME] #738 verified she had used the kitchen's usual food processor to make that pureed pork, but it was removed from the kitchen because it would spontaneously shut off and she thought it may have an electrical problem. [NAME] #738 verified she should not have to puree any food item for almost an hour, as it typically took her just minutes to puree any food if the processor was in proper working order. Interview on 05/20/2021 at 10:40 A.M. with DM #794 verified the facility kitchen did not have a properly working food processor and the plan was to purchase a new one.
