Resident #9 received thickened liquids and was not permitted a water pitcher/cup. The facility census was 167. Residents Affected - Some Finding include: Observation on 01/12/20 from 9:58 A.M. through 11:51 A.M. revealed residents on the Taft unit did not have water pitchers or dedicated cups for water in their rooms. No individual water pitchers or large cups were noted in the common areas. A water pitcher with small clear plastic cups was at the nurse's station for residents to get water. Interview on 01/12/20 at 10:32 A.M. with Resident #68 revealed she saved used pop bottles to put water in for her room. An observation at that time revealed Resident #68 had a pop bottle with water on her over bed table. No water pitcher or water cups were noted in her room. Interview on 01/13/20 at 11:58 A.M. with Resident #316 revealed his family brought him food and a beverage from an outside restaurant. Resident #316 stated he was keeping his cup so he could put water in it to keep in his room. No water pitcher or water cups were noted in his room. Interview on 01/13/20 at 1:25 P.M. with Resident #4, during the resident council meeting, revealed all residents were not provided individual cups or water pitchers. Resident #4 stated some residents had to go to the nurse's station to ask for water. Interview on 01/14/20 at 8:38 A.M. with State Tested Nursing Assistant (STNA) #411 revealed residents had water pitchers but often left them sitting around where other residents could take them. STNA #411 stated there was a resident on the Taft unit that received thickened liquids so it was not safe for residents to leave their water pitchers or cups sitting in the common areas. STNA #411 verified Resident #9 was the only resident on the Taft unit that received thickened liquids and would not have a water pitcher or cup provided at the bedside. Interview on 01/14/20 at 8:43 A.M. with Licensed Social Worker (LSW) #200 confirmed there were not individual water pitchers for residents on the Taft unit because there were residents with orders for thickened liquids.

F 0558 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Some why there were no individual water pitchers or cups provided for residents on the Taft unit. The DON stated it could be because of residents with fluid restrictions, thickened liquids, or behaviors. Review of the policy and procedure for Serving Drinking Water, dated August 2008, revealed the purpose was to provide residents with a fresh supply of drinking water and to provide adequate fluids for the residents. The necessary equipment and supplies included a water pitcher and cup. 365655 Page 2 of 11 365655 01/15/2020 McKinley Nursing 800 Market Avenue North Suite 1560 Canton, OH 44702

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 observation, record review and interview the facility failed to assess, monitor and treat Resident #20's left lower leg scar and wounds. This affected one out of three residents reviewed for skin issues. Residents Affected - Few Findings include: Resident #20 was admitted on [DATE] with diagnoses including heart disease, traumatic brain injury following a motor vehicle accident, schizophrenia, dementia, morbid obesity and cognitive communication deficit. An interview with Resident #20 on 01/12/20 at 10:41 A.M. indicated he had sustained an injury to his lower left leg and had developed a clot from a car accident in the past. An observation at the time of the interview revealed Resident #20's left lower leg had a large discolored scarred area (approximately 4 centimeters wide by 6 centimeters long) with two scabbed areas on each end of the scar. The scarred skin had skin that was peeling off in powdery flakes. Review of Resident #20's nursing assessments and physician assessments dated 09/01/2019 to 01/13/20 revealed no documentation or his left lower leg wounds or scar. Resident #20's clinical record had no plan of care or interventions to care for the left lower leg scar or scabbed areas/wounds. An interview with Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) #709 on 01/13/20 at 2:20 P.M. verified there was no treatment ordered by the physician to care for Resident #20's left lower leg scar and wounds. An observation and interview with Resident #20 with LPN #709 present, at the time of the interview, verified his left lower leg scar was flaking and had two scabbed areas on each end of the scar. Resident #20 indicated the scar bothered him sometimes and he said he rubbed and scratched the area due to pain and itching. LPN #709 indicated Resident #20 had not complained to her about the scarred area and said she hadn't noticed the scar with two scabbed areas and flaking. LPN #709 agreed some kind of skin treatment needed ordered to care for these areas. An interview with the Director of Nursing on 01/13/20 at 3:30 P.M. verified the above findings. 365655 Page 5 of 11 365655 01/15/2020 McKinley Nursing 800 Market Avenue North Suite 1560 Canton, OH 44702

This affected two out of three residents reviewed for pressure ulcers. Residents Affected - Few Findings include: 1. Resident #47 was admitted on [DATE] with diagnoses including hemiplegia (paralysis on one side of the body) and hemiparesis (weakness on one side of the body) following a cerebral vascular accident (stroke)affecting the non-dominant side, respiratory disease, heart disease, Alzheimer's disease, schizophrenia, anxiety and depression. Review of Resident #47's wound assessment dated [DATE] indicated a stage III pressure ulcer (a full-thickness skin loss involving damage or necrosis of subcutaneous tissue that may extend down to underlying fascia and presents as a deep crater with or without tunneling or undermining of adjacent tissue) on the left heel measuring 0.5 centimeters (cm) long by 2.0 cm wide and 0.2 cm deep. The wound assessment dated [DATE] indicated a stage III pressure ulcer was present on his/her coccyx area and measured 0.4 centimeters (cm) long by 0.1 cm wide and 0.2 cm deep. A review of Resident #47's physician orders dated 01/01/20 to 01/31/20 revealed an order dated 01/08/20 for a wound treatment to the left heel and coccyx pressure ulcers. The physician orders directed nursing staff to cleanse the left heel ulcer with wound cleanser and apply skin prep spray and cover with Tegaderm foam adhesive dressing daily and as needed. The other treatment was to cleanse the coccyx ulcer with wound cleanser and apply Medi-honey and cover with foam Tegaderm adhesive dressing once a day. An observation on 01/15/20 at 10:58 A.M. of Resident #47's incontinence care, performed by State Tested Nursing Assistant (STNA) #401 and STNA #609, revealed no dressing covering the coccyx ulcer and the left heel dressing was dated 01/13/20.
