Honor the resident's right to request, refuse, and/or discontinue treatment, to participate in or refuse to
participate in experimental research, and to formulate an advance directive.
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
medical record review and staff interview, the facility failed to ensure a resident's advance directive was fully
completed and dated by the physician. This affected one (#65) of three residents reviewed for advanced
directives. The facility census was 72.
Findings include:
Medical record review revealed Resident #65 was admitted to the facility on [DATE]. Diagnoses included
chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, end stage renal disease, cutaneous abscess of the abdominal wall,
renal dialysis, essential primary hypertension, heart failure, dysphagia, and hyperlipidemia.
Review of the Minimum Data Set (MDS) assessment, dated 02/04/25, revealed Resident #65 had impaired
cognition. Resident #65 was dependent on staff for medication administration, eating, dressing, bathing,
and personal hygiene.
Review of the undated form titled, DNR Comfort Care, revealed Resident #65 was indicated to have a DNR
Comfort Care (DNRCC) advanced directive selected; however, there was no selection made under the
section titled Certification of DNR Comfort Care Status, with an indication that it was to be completed by a
physician. The choices to select included Do-Not-Resuscitate-Order or Living Will (Declaration) and
Qualifying Condition with instructions to check only one box, and neither were marked. Further review of
the form revealed the physician signed the form but did not date it.
Review of the physician orders for Resident #65 dated 02/07/25 revealed an order for a DNRCC advanced
directive.
Interview with Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) #122 on 03/11/25 at 11:55 A.M. confirmed Resident #65's
DNR Comfort Care form was signed by the physician; however, it was not dated. LPN #122 also confirmed
the boxes were left blank related to Do Not Resuscitate Order and Living Will (Declaration) and Qualifying
Condition. LPN #122 confirmed the physician's date was required.

Residents Affected - Few
Based on medical record review, review of a hospital record, staff interview, review of the facility
investigation, and policy review, the facility failed to ensure the physician or nurse practitioner was notified
timely of a significant change in condition for a resident (#70). This resulted in Immediate Jeopardy and
serious life-threatening harm, injuries, and/or death when on [DATE] at 7:46 P.M., Resident #70 was found
to have elevated blood glucose levels by a nurse and after notification to the nurse practitioner, additional
insulin was ordered, which the resident refused. The nurse did not make notification to the nurse
practitioner or physician of the resident's refusal of additional insulin and no additional checks of the
resident's blood glucose level were attempted. Resident #70 was later found on the floor, was not
answering questions, but was able to move all extremities, and the right side of the resident's face was
slightly swollen. Furthermore, the nurse did not complete a neurological assessment of the resident, and no
notifications were made to the physician or nurse practitioner of the resident's change in condition. Resident
#70 was found later the next morning on [DATE] at 2:42 A.M. with bluish-colored skin tone, abdominal
breathing, an extremely edematous head, and was not responding to verbal or physical stimuli. The lack of
notification to the physician or nurse practitioner contributed to Resident #70's untimely death when the
resident was taken to the emergency department, was found to have a further elevated blood glucose level,
was diagnosed with acute encephalopathy, with multiple metabolic/infectious abnormalities, acute
metabolic acidosis, and ultimately died. This affected one (#70) of three residents reviewed for change in
condition and notification. The facility census was 72.
On [DATE] at 9:03 A.M., Regional Director of Operations #199 and Regional Director of Clinical Operations
(RDCO) #595 were notified that Immediate Jeopardy began on [DATE] at 7:46 P.M. when Resident #70's
blood glucose level measured 583 milligrams per deciliter (mg/dL) and previous Director of Nursing (DON)
#395 notified the nurse practitioner of the elevated blood glucose level. The nurse practitioner ordered
additional insulin which the resident refused, and previous DON #395 did not make notification to the nurse
practitioner or physician of the resident's refusal of additional insulin and no additional checks of the
resident's blood glucose level were attempted or documented in the medical record. Resident #70 was
found on the floor on [DATE] at 2:42 A.M. and was not answering questions, but was able to move all
extremities, and the right side of the resident's face was slightly swollen. Previous DON #395 did not
complete a neurological assessment of the resident, and no notifications were made to the physician or
nurse practitioner of the change in condition. On [DATE] at 7:15 A.M., Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) #155
entered Resident #70's room to check the resident's blood glucose level and administer insulin and found
Resident #70 in bed with bluish-colored skin tone, abdominal breathing, an extremely edematous head,
and the resident was not responding to verbal or physical stimuli. A medical code was initiated by facility
and emergency medical services (EMS) arrived at the facility and transported the resident to the hospital.
At the hospital, Resident #70 was noted to have a blood glucose level greater than 784 mg/dL and had
diagnoses of acute encephalopathy, with multiple metabolic/infectious abnormalities, and acute metabolic
acidosis. Resident #70 ultimately died on [DATE].
The Immediate Jeopardy was removed on [DATE] at 4:00 P.M., when the facility sent Resident #70 to the
ED for treatment following a change in condition, notification was made to the physician, the facility began
an investigation, previous DON #395 was suspended, all residents were assessed for

Residents Affected - Few
On [DATE], two (#1 and #19) additional resident medical records were reviewed for change in condition and
notification of change with no concerns identified.
•
Interviews on [DATE] from 9:35 A.M. to 10:05 A.M. with RN #98, RN #122, CNA #96, CNA #80, CNA #119,
CNA #127, CNA #99, CNA #105, and CNA #144 verified they received education from the facility regarding
a resident change in condition or mental status change from the resident's baseline. CNAs interviewed
verified they would immediately notify the nurse of the change in condition and nurses interviewed indicated
the physician would be notified immediately. All staff members were able to recall the training and
demonstrated proficiency of the education provided.
Findings include:
Review of the medical record revealed Resident #70 was admitted to the facility on [DATE] with diagnoses
of acute and chronic respiratory failure with hypoxia, tracheostomy, end-stage renal disease (ESRD) with
dependence on hemodialysis, diabetes mellitus Type I, hypertension, chronic obstructive pulmonary
disease, and chronic viral Hepatitis C.
Review of the Minimum Data Set (MDS) Discharge-return not anticipated assessment dated [DATE]
revealed Resident #70 had no cognitive deficit and was always continent of bowel and occasionally
incontinent of urine. The resident required set up assistance for eating, oral and personal hygiene, toileting
and transfers, moderate assistance for bathing, supervision for dressing, and was independent with bed
mobility.
Review of a fall risk evaluation dated [DATE] revealed Resident #70 was a low risk for falls.
Review of physician orders revealed an order dated [DATE] for Resident #70 to be administered aspart
insulin with niacinamide 100 units per milliliter per sliding scale subcutaneously (SQ) before meals related
to diabetes mellitus Type I. The sliding scale was as follows: for blood glucose levels between zero (0) and
59 mg/dL, implement hypoglycemia protocol; for blood glucose levels between 60 and 150 mg/dL, give 0
units; for blood glucose levels between 151 and 200 mg/dL, give two (2) units; for blood glucose levels
between 201 and 250 mg/dL, give four (4) units; for blood glucose levels between 251 and 300 mg/dL, give
six (6) units; for blood glucose levels between 301 and 350 mg/dL, give eight (8) units; for blood glucose
levels between 351 and 400 mg/dL, give 10 units; for blood glucose levels between 401 and 450, give 12
units; and for blood glucose levels greater than 451 mg/dL, notify the physician.
Review of Resident #70's [DATE] medication administration record (MAR) revealed Resident #70 refused
aspart insulin with niacinamide 100 units per milliliter as per sliding scale SQ before meals related to
diabetes mellitus type I doses on [DATE] at 11:00 A.M. when the blood glucose levels was 170 mg/dL and
at 4:00 P.M. when blood sugar level was 400 mg/dL, on [DATE] at 7:00 A.M. when the blood glucose level

Review of a nursing progress note dated [DATE] at 7:46 P.M., written by LPN #150, revealed Resident #70's
glucose reading was 583 mg/dL. The nurse practitioner was notified, and an order was received to
administer 16 units of insulin which Resident #70 refused. The resident had a history of non-compliance
with the medication regimen. The resident was educated on the risks, up to and including death, of refusing
physician orders. The resident was alert and oriented and repeated back understanding of the risks.
Residents Affected - Few
Review of a nursing progress note dated [DATE] at 2:42 A.M., written by previous DON #395, revealed
Resident #70 was found on the floor by a certified nurse aide. The resident was not answering questions
but was able to move all extremities. The right side of the resident's face was slightly swollen. A neurologic
examination was unable to be completed due to the resident not opening her eyes upon command.
Review of a nursing progress note dated [DATE] at 2:43 A.M., written by previous DON #395, revealed
Resident #70 was assessed and the resident continued to move all extremities and her bilateral lower
extremities which were over the side of the bed. The resident's respirations were easy yet unlabored and
the resident continued to not follow commands.
Review of a nursing progress note dated [DATE] at 7:15 A.M., written by LPN #155, revealed LPN #155
entered Resident #70's room to administer morning medications and obtain a fingerstick to check the
resident's blood sugar and found the resident laying sideways across the bed with her legs dangling off the
bed. The resident was noted with a bluish-colored skin tone and abdominal breathing. The resident's head
was extremely edematous. The resident's cool air mist tubing was laying on her chest and not connected to
the tracheostomy. A thick brown and blood-tinged sputum was noted in and around the tracheostomy.
Resident #70 was unresponsive to verbal stimuli and sternal rub. LPN #155 called an emergency medical
code at that time and two respiratory therapists immediately responded and initiated suctioning and
providing breaths to the resident via a resuscitation (Ambu) bag. The resident's oxygen saturation was 94
percent (%) on the tracheostomy, the heart rate was 144 beats per minute, and the blood pressure could
not be obtained. The respiratory therapists continued to provide respirations to Resident #70. At 7:24 A.M.,
emergency medical transport (EMT) personnel arrived on the scene and care was transitioned to them. At
7:27 A.M., EMT personnel remained on the scene providing first aid to the resident who continued to be
unresponsive and with abdominal breathing. The resident's skin tone returned to a natural color. At 7:32
A.M., EMT personnel transported the resident from the facility to the hospital. A report was called to the
receiving hospital emergency department (ED), and notifications were made to the physician and the
resident's family. At 12:52 P.M., the resident was admitted to the hospital with a diagnosis of acute
metabolic encephalopathy.
Review of hospital documents dated [DATE] at 1:09 P.M. revealed Resident #70 had a blood glucose level
greater than 784 mg/dL and was admitted unresponsive on mechanical ventilation to the medical intensive
care unit (MICU) with a concern for volume overload and flash pulmonary edema. The resident's
temperature was 102.6 degrees Fahrenheit. The physician noted the resident was critically ill due to acute
encephalopathy and comatose state and if untreated, there was a high risk of imminent or life-threatening
deterioration of the resident's condition due to worsening hypoxic-ischemic brain injury, cerebral edema,
seizures, brain compression and brain death. Further review of the hospital document revealed on [DATE]
at 2:11 P.M., Resident #70 was also assigned a diagnosis of acute metabolic acidosis.

Review of a nursing progress note dated [DATE] revealed the family reported Resident #70 expired in the
hospital today.
Interview on [DATE] at 12:41 P.M. with Registered Nurse (RN) #390 verified there was no documentation
that indicated neurological checks were performed on Resident #70 from the time she was found on the
floor at [DATE] at 2:42 A.M. until she was transported to the hospital on [DATE] at 7:32 A.M. by EMT
personnel or that the physician was notified of the resident's change in condition until transport to the
hospital on [DATE] at 7:32 A.M.
Telephone interview on [DATE] at 1:12 P.M. with previous DON #395 verified neurological checks were not
performed on Resident #70 after finding her on the floor on [DATE] at 2:42 A.M. through the time she was
transported to the hospital on [DATE] at 7:32 A.M. Previous DON #395 also verified neither the physician,
physician extender, nor family were notified of the resident's change in condition until after the resident was
transported to the hospital. He was unable to provide rationale as to why neither neurological checks were
obtained nor why the physician and family were not notified.
Telephone interview on [DATE] at 8:32 A.M. with Nurse Practitioner (NP) #195 verified it was the
expectation for the facility to make immediate notification to the physician or physician extender for any
resident who was experiencing or who had experienced a change in condition. NP #195 verified the facility
did not make notification for Resident #70's change in condition until the resident was transported to the
hospital on [DATE] at 7:32 A.M. NP #195 stated she should have been called immediately after the resident
was found on the floor on [DATE] at 2:42 A.M., especially when it was noted the resident had swelling noted
to the face and was on an anticoagulant medication.
Interview on [DATE] at 8:40 A.M. with the current DON revealed the findings of the facility's investigation
were inconclusive as to how Resident #70 became to be on the floor in the early morning hours of [DATE].
The DON stated Resident #70 had a blanket on the floor and her oxygen tubing remained connected to her
tracheostomy. The DON stated it was a strong possibility the resident placed herself on the floor and laid
down. The DON did verify neurological checks were not completed on Resident #70 nor was the physician
notified of the resident's change in condition until after transport to the hospital on [DATE] at 7:32 A.M.
Interview on [DATE] at 11:55 P.M. with NP #195 verified Resident #70 had a history of erratic blood glucose
levels and stated the resident was afraid of being administered greater than 8 units of insulin for fear of it
stacking up due to her diagnosis of type I diabetes mellitus. NP #195 verified the facility, and specifically
previous DON #395, should have notified her immediately of the resident refusing the order for the 16 units
of insulin on [DATE] at 7:46 P.M. and the resident should have been reassessed between [DATE] at 7:46
P.M. and [DATE] at 2:42 A.M. with an update provided. NP #195 also verified she would have definitely
ordered the resident be sent to the hospital on [DATE] at 2:42 A.M. had she been notified by previous DON
#395.
Review of the policy titled, Notification of Changes, revised [DATE], revealed the purpose of this policy was
to ensure the facility promptly informs the resident, consults the resident's physician, and notifies,
consistent with his or her authority, resident's representative when there was a change requiring
notification. Circumstances requiring notification include a significant change in the resident's physical,
mental, or psychosocial condition such as deterioration in health, mental, or psychosocial status that may
include life-threatening conditions or clinical complications.

Protect each resident from all types of abuse such as physical, mental, sexual abuse, physical punishment,
and neglect by anybody.
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** THE
FOLLOWING DEFICIENCY REPRESENTS AN INCIDENT OF PAST NONCOMPLIANCE THAT WAS
SUBSEQUENTLY CORRECTED PRIOR TO THIS SURVEY.
Residents Affected - Few
Based on medical record review, review of a hospital record, staff interview, review of the facility
investigation, and policy review, the facility failed to ensure a resident (#70) was free from neglect when the
facility failed to provide appropriate and timely assessment, treatment, service, and notification to the
physician or nurse practitioner. This resulted in Immediate Jeopardy and serious life-threatening harm,
injuries, and/or death when on [DATE] at 7:46 P.M., Resident #70 was found to have elevated blood glucose
levels by a nurse and after notification to the nurse practitioner, additional insulin was ordered, which the
resident refused. The nurse did not make notification to the nurse practitioner or physician of the resident's
refusal of additional insulin and no additional checks of the resident's blood glucose level were attempted.
Resident #70 was later found on the floor, was not answering questions, but was able to move all
extremities, and the right side of the resident's face was slightly swollen. Furthermore, the nurse did not
complete a neurological assessment of the resident, and no notifications were made to the physician or
nurse practitioner of the resident's change in condition. Resident #70 was found later the next morning on
[DATE] at 2:42 A.M. with bluish-colored skin tone, abdominal breathing, an extremely edematous head, and
was not responding to verbal or physical stimuli. The lack of timely assessments, treatments, services, and
notification to the physician or nurse practitioner contributed to Resident #70's untimely death when the
resident was taken to the emergency department, was found to have a further elevated blood glucose level,
was diagnoses with acute encephalopathy, with multiple metabolic/infectious abnormalities, acute metabolic
acidosis, and ultimately died. This affected one (#70) of three residents reviewed for abuse and neglect. The
facility census was 72.
On [DATE] at 9:03 A.M., Regional Director of Operations #199 and Regional Director of Clinical Operations
(RDCO) #595 were notified that Immediate Jeopardy began on [DATE] at 7:46 P.M. when Resident #70's
blood glucose level measured 583 milligrams per deciliter (mg/dL) and previous Director of Nursing (DON)
#395 notified the nurse practitioner of the elevated blood glucose level. The nurse practitioner ordered
additional insulin which the resident refused, and previous DON #395 did not make notification to the nurse
practitioner or physician of the resident's refusal of additional insulin and no additional checks of the
resident's blood glucose level were attempted or documented in the medical record. Resident #70 was
found on the floor on [DATE] at 2:42 A.M. and was not answering questions, but was able to move all
extremities, and the right side of the resident's face was slightly swollen. Previous DON #395 did not
complete a neurological assessment of the resident, and no notifications were made to the physician or
nurse practitioner of the change in condition. On [DATE] at 7:15 A.M., Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) #155
entered Resident #70's room to check the resident's blood glucose level and administer insulin and found
Resident #70 in bed with bluish-colored skin tone, abdominal breathing, an extremely edematous head,
and the resident was not responding to verbal or physical stimuli. A medical code was initiated by facility
and emergency medical services (EMS) arrived at the facility and transported the resident to the hospital.
At the hospital, Resident #70 was noted to have a blood glucose level greater than 784 mg/dL and had
diagnoses of acute encephalopathy, with multiple metabolic/infectious abnormalities, and acute metabolic
acidosis. Resident #70 ultimately died on [DATE].
The Immediate Jeopardy was removed on [DATE] at 4:00 P.M., when the facility sent Resident #70 to the
ED for treatment following a change in condition, notification was made to the physician, the

Interviews on [DATE] from 9:35 A.M. to 10:05 A.M. with RN #98, RN #122, CNA #96, CNA #80, CNA #119,
CNA #127, CNA #99, CNA #105, and CNA #144 verified they received education from the facility regarding
a resident change in condition or mental status change from the resident's baseline. CNAs interviewed
verified they would immediately notify the nurse of the change in condition and nurses interviewed indicated
the physician would be notified immediately. All staff members were able to recall the training and
demonstrated proficiency of the education provided.
Findings include:
Review of the medical record revealed Resident #70 was admitted to the facility on [DATE] with diagnoses
of acute and chronic respiratory failure with hypoxia, tracheostomy, end-stage renal disease (ESRD) with
dependence on hemodialysis, diabetes mellitus Type I, hypertension, chronic obstructive pulmonary
disease, and chronic viral Hepatitis C.
Review of the Minimum Data Set (MDS) Discharge-return not anticipated assessment dated [DATE]
revealed Resident #70 had no cognitive deficit and was always continent of bowel and occasionally
incontinent of urine. The resident required set up assistance for eating, oral and personal hygiene, toileting
and transfers, moderate assistance for bathing, supervision for dressing, and was independent with bed
mobility.
Review of physician orders revealed Resident #70 had an order dated [DATE] to be administered the
anticoagulant medication Eliquis 2.5 milligrams (mg) by mouth with instructions to give one tablet every

Review of Resident #70's [DATE] medication administration record (MAR) revealed Resident #70 refused
aspart insulin with niacinamide 100 units per milliliter as per sliding scale SQ before meals related to
diabetes mellitus type I doses on [DATE] at 11:00 A.M. when the blood glucose levels was 170 mg/dL and
at 4:00 P.M. when blood sugar level was 400 mg/dL, on [DATE] at 7:00 A.M. when the blood glucose level
was 465 mg/dL and at 4:00 P.M. when blood glucose level was 450 mg/dL, on [DATE] at 11:00 A.M. when
the blood glucose level was 220 mg/dL, and on [DATE] at 11:00 A.M. when the blood glucose level was 587
mg/dL.
Review of a nursing progress note dated [DATE] at 7:46 P.M., written by Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN)
#150, revealed Resident #70's glucose reading was 583 mg/dL. The nurse practitioner was notified, and an
order was received to administer 16 units of insulin which Resident #70 refused. The resident had a history
of non-compliance with the medication regimen. The resident was educated on the risks, up to and
including death, of refusing physician orders. The resident was alert and oriented and repeated back
understanding of the risks.
Review of a nursing progress note dated [DATE] at 2:42 A.M., written by previous DON #395, revealed
Resident #70 was found on the floor by a certified nurse aide. The resident was not answering questions
but was able to move all extremities. The right side of the resident's face was slightly swollen. A neurologic
examination was unable to be completed due to the resident not opening her eyes upon command.
Review of a nursing progress note dated [DATE] at 2:43 A.M., written by previous DON #395, revealed
Resident #70 was assessed and the resident continued to move all extremities and her bilateral lower
extremities which were over the side of the bed. The resident's respirations were easy yet unlabored and
the resident continued to not follow commands.
Review of a nursing progress note dated [DATE] at 7:15 A.M., written by LPN #155, revealed LPN #155
entered Resident #70's room to administer morning medications and obtain a fingerstick to check the
resident's blood sugar and found the resident laying sideways across the bed with her legs dangling off the
bed. The resident was noted with a bluish-colored skin tone and abdominal breathing. The resident's head
was extremely edematous. The resident's cool air mist tubing was laying on her chest and not connected to
the tracheostomy. A thick brown and blood-tinged sputum was noted in and around the tracheostomy.
Resident #70 was unresponsive to verbal stimuli and sternal rub. LPN #155 called an emergency medical
code at that time and two respiratory therapists immediately responded and initiated suctioning and
providing breaths to the resident via a resuscitation (Ambu) bag. The resident's oxygen saturation was 94
percent (%) on the tracheostomy, the heart rate was 144 beats per minute, and the blood pressure could
not be obtained. The respiratory therapists continued to provide respirations to Resident #70. At 7:24 A.M.,
emergency medical transport (EMT) personnel arrived on the scene and care was transitioned to them. At
7:27 A.M., EMT personnel remained on the scene providing first aid to the resident who continued to be
unresponsive and with abdominal breathing. The resident's skin tone returned to a natural color. At 7:32
A.M., EMT personnel transported the resident from the facility to the hospital. A report was called to the
receiving hospital emergency department (ED) and notifications were made to the physician and the
resident's family. At 12:52 P.M., the resident was admitted to the hospital with a diagnosis of acute
metabolic encephalopathy.
Review of hospital documents dated [DATE] at 1:09 P.M. revealed Resident #70 had a blood glucose level
greater than 784 mg/dL and was admitted unresponsive on mechanical ventilation to the medical intensive
care unit (MICU) with a concern for volume overload and flash pulmonary edema. The resident's
temperature was 102.6 degrees Fahrenheit. The physician noted the resident was critically ill due

to acute encephalopathy and comatose state and if untreated, there was a high risk of imminent or
life-threatening deterioration of the resident's condition due to worsening hypoxic-ischemic brain injury,
cerebral edema, seizures, brain compression and brain death. Further review of the hospital document
revealed on [DATE] at 2:11 P.M., Resident #70 was also assigned a diagnosis of acute metabolic acidosis.
Review of a nursing progress note dated [DATE] revealed the family reported Resident #70 expired in the
hospital today.
Interview on [DATE] at 12:41 P.M. with RN #390 verified there was no documentation that indicated
neurological checks were performed on Resident #70 from the time she was found on the floor at [DATE] at
2:42 A.M. until she was transported to the hospital on [DATE] at 7:32 A.M. by EMT personnel or that the
physician was notified of the resident's change in condition until transport to the hospital on [DATE] at 7:32
A.M.
Telephone interview on [DATE] at 1:12 P.M. with previous DON #395 verified neurological checks were not
performed on Resident #70 after finding her on the floor on [DATE] at 2:42 A.M. through the time she was
transported to the hospital on [DATE] at 7:32 A.M. Previous DON #395 also verified neither the physician,
physician extender, nor family were notified of the resident's change in condition until after the resident was
transported to the hospital. He was unable to provide rationale as to why neither neurological checks were
obtained nor why the physician and family were not notified.
Telephone interview on [DATE] at 8:32 A.M. with NP #195 verified it was the expectation for the facility to
make immediate notification to the physician or physician extender for any resident who was experiencing
or who had experienced a change in condition. NP #195 verified the facility did not make notification for
Resident #70's change in condition until the resident was transported to the hospital on [DATE] at 7:32 A.M.
NP #195 stated she should have been called immediately after the resident was found on the floor on
[DATE] at 2:42 A.M., especially when it was noted the resident had swelling noted to the face and was on
an anticoagulant medication.
Interview on [DATE] at 8:40 A.M. with the current DON revealed the findings of the facility's investigation
were inconclusive as to how Resident #70 became to be on the floor in the early morning hours of [DATE].
The DON stated Resident #70 had a blanket on the floor and her oxygen tubing remained connected to her
tracheostomy. The DON stated it was a strong possibility the resident placed herself on the floor and laid
down. The DON did verify neurological checks were not completed on Resident #70 nor was the physician
notified of the resident's change in condition until after transport to the hospital on [DATE] at 7:32 A.M.
Interview on [DATE] at 11:55 P.M. with NP #195 verified Resident #70 had a history of erratic blood glucose
levels and stated the resident was afraid of being administered greater than 8 units of insulin for fear of it
stacking up due to her diagnosis of type I diabetes mellitus. NP #195 verified the facility, and specifically
previous DON #395, should have notified her immediately of the resident refusing the order for the 16 units
of insulin on [DATE] at 7:46 P.M. and the resident should have been reassessed between [DATE] at 7:46
P.M. and [DATE] at 2:42 A.M. with an update provided. NP #195 also verified she would have definitely
ordered the resident be sent to the hospital on [DATE] at 2:42 A.M. had she been notified by previous DON
#395.
Review of the policy titled, Abuse, Neglect, and Exploitation, revised [DATE], revealed it was the policy for
the facility to provide protections for health, welfare, and rights of each resident by

notified, and an order was received to administer 16 units of insulin which Resident #70 refused. The
resident had a history of non-compliance with the medication regimen. The resident was educated on the
risks, up to and including death, of refusing physician orders. The resident was alert and oriented and
repeated back understanding of the risks.
Review of a nursing progress note dated [DATE] at 2:42 A.M., written by previous Director of Nursing
(DON) #395, revealed Resident #70 was found on the floor by a certified nurse aide. The resident was not
answering questions but was able to move all extremities. The right side of the resident's face was slightly
swollen. A neurologic examination was unable to be completed due to the resident not opening her eyes
upon command.
Review of a nursing progress note dated [DATE] at 2:43 A.M., written by previous DON #395, revealed
Resident #70 was assessed and the resident continued to move all extremities and her bilateral lower
extremities which were over the side of the bed. The resident's respirations were easy yet unlabored and
the resident continued to not follow commands.
Review of a nursing progress note dated [DATE] at 7:15 A.M., written by Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN)
#155, revealed LPN #155 entered Resident #70's room to administer morning medications and obtain a
fingerstick to check the resident's blood sugar and found the resident laying sideways across the bed with
her legs dangling off the bed. The resident was noted with a bluish-colored skin tone and abdominal
breathing. The resident's head was extremely edematous. The resident's cool air mist tubing was laying on
her chest and not connected to the tracheostomy. A thick brown and blood-tinged sputum was noted in and
around the tracheostomy. Resident #70 was unresponsive to verbal stimuli and sternal rub. LPN #155
called an emergency medical code at that time and two respiratory therapists immediately responded and
initiated suctioning and providing breaths to the resident via a resuscitation (Ambu) bag. The resident's
oxygen saturation was 94 percent (%) on the tracheostomy, the heart rate was 144 beats per minute, and
the blood pressure could not be obtained. The respiratory therapists continued to provide respirations to
Resident #70. At 7:24 A.M., emergency medical transport (EMT) personnel arrived on the scene and care
was transitioned to them. At 7:27 A.M., EMT personnel remained on the scene providing first aid to the
resident who continued to be unresponsive and with abdominal breathing. The resident's skin tone returned
to a natural color. At 7:32 A.M., EMT personnel transported the resident from the facility to the hospital. A
report was called to the receiving hospital emergency department (ED) and notifications were made to the
physician and the resident's family. At 12:52 P.M., the resident was admitted to the hospital with a diagnosis
of acute metabolic encephalopathy.
Review of hospital documents dated [DATE] at 1:09 P.M. revealed Resident #70 had a blood glucose level
greater than 784 mg/dL and was admitted unresponsive on mechanical ventilation to the medical intensive
care unit (MICU) with a concern for volume overload and flash pulmonary edema. The resident's
temperature was 102.6 degrees Fahrenheit. The physician noted the resident was critically ill due to acute
encephalopathy and comatose state and if untreated, there was a high risk of imminent or life-threatening
deterioration of the resident's condition due to worsening hypoxic-ischemic brain injury, cerebral edema,
seizures, brain compression and brain death. Further review of the hospital document revealed on [DATE]
at 2:11 P.M., Resident #70 was also assigned a diagnosis of acute metabolic acidosis.
Review of a nursing progress note dated [DATE] revealed the family reported Resident #70 expired in the
hospital today.

Interview on [DATE] at 12:41 P.M. with Registered Nurse (RN) #390 verified there was no documentation
that indicated neurological checks were performed on Resident #70 from the time she was found on the
floor at [DATE] at 2:42 A.M. until she was transported to the hospital on [DATE] at 7:32 A.M. by EMT
personnel or that the physician was notified of the resident's change in condition until transport to the
hospital on [DATE] at 7:32 A.M.
Residents Affected - Some
Telephone interview on [DATE] at 1:12 P.M. with previous DON #395 verified neurological checks were not
performed on Resident #70 after finding her on the floor on [DATE] at 2:42 A.M. through the time she was
transported to the hospital on [DATE] at 7:32 A.M. Previous DON #395 also verified neither the physician,
physician extender, nor family were notified of the resident's change in condition until after the resident was
transported to the hospital. He was unable to provide rationale as to why neither neurological checks were
obtained nor why the physician and family were not notified.
Telephone interview on [DATE] at 8:32 A.M. with Nurse Practitioner (NP) #195 verified it was the
expectation for the facility to make immediate notification to the physician or physician extender for any
resident who was experiencing or who had experienced a change in condition. NP #195 verified the facility
did not make notification for Resident #70's change in condition until the resident was transported to the
hospital on [DATE] at 7:32 A.M. NP #195 stated she should have been called immediately after the resident
was found on the floor on [DATE] at 2:42 A.M., especially when it was noted the resident had swelling noted
to the face and was on an anticoagulant medication.
Interview on [DATE] at 8:40 A.M. with the current DON revealed the findings of the facility's investigation
were inconclusive as to how Resident #70 became to be on the floor in the early morning hours of [DATE].
The DON stated Resident #70 had a blanket on the floor and her oxygen tubing remained connected to her
tracheostomy. The DON stated it was a strong possibility the resident placed herself on the floor and laid
down. The DON did verify neurological checks were not completed on Resident #70 nor was the physician
notified of the resident's change in condition until after transport to the hospital on [DATE] at 7:32 A.M.
Interview on [DATE] at 11:55 P.M. with NP #195 verified Resident #70 had a history of erratic blood glucose
levels and stated the resident was afraid of being administered greater than 8 units of insulin for fear of it
stacking up due to her diagnosis of type I diabetes mellitus. NP #195 verified the facility, and specifically
previous DON #395, should have notified her immediately of the resident refusing the order for the 16 units
of insulin on [DATE] at 7:46 P.M. and the resident should have been reassessed between [DATE] at 7:46
P.M. and [DATE] at 2:42 A.M. with an update provided. NP #195 also verified she would have definitely
ordered the resident be sent to the hospital on [DATE] at 2:42 A.M. had she been notified by previous DON
#395.
Review of facility self-reported incidents from [DATE] revealed no evidence the facility notified the State
Survey Agency of a situation of neglect involving Resident #70's lack of assessment, treatment, and
notification of change to the physician or nurse practitioner.
Interview on [DATE] at 6:46 P.M. with Regional Director of Clinical Operations (RDCO) #199 verified the
facility did not report the situation of neglect involving Resident #70 to the State Survey Agency.
2. Medical record review for Resident#59 revealed he admitted to the facility on [DATE]. Diagnoses included
orthostatic hypertension, cerebral vascular accident, depression, hypertension, hyperlipidemia, diabetes
mellitus (DM), and respiratory failure.

Interview with the Director of Nursing (DON) on [DATE] at 10:54 A.M. confirmed she was aware of an
incident related to CNA #145 getting behind on her work and failing to change her assigned residents
within the past two weeks. The DON stated she disciplined CNA #145 for leaving her residents soiled. The
DON confirmed the facility failed to report an allegation of neglect when CNA #145 failed to provide care
and services for Resident #59, Resident #122, and Resident #123 on [DATE]. The DON confirmed she did
not complete a thorough investigation of the incident because she felt CNA #145 was a good aide and the
DON did not receive complaints about CNA #145's care. The DON stated CNA #145 told her the reason
she was behind on resident care on [DATE] was because she had a bad day.
Interview on [DATE] at 11:18 A.M. with CNA #145 confirmed she got very behind on her assignments on
[DATE]. CNA #145 confirmed she failed to change the soiled sheets for Resident #59, Resident #122, and

transported to the hospital. He was unable to provide rationale as to why neither neurological checks were
obtained nor why the physician and family were not notified.
Telephone interview on [DATE] at 8:32 A.M. with Nurse Practitioner (NP) #195 verified it was the
expectation for the facility to make immediate notification to the physician or physician extender for any
resident who was experiencing or who had experienced a change in condition. NP #195 verified the facility
did not make notification for Resident #70's change in condition until the resident was transported to the
hospital on [DATE] at 7:32 A.M. NP #195 stated she should have been called immediately after the resident
was found on the floor on [DATE] at 2:42 A.M., especially when it was noted the resident had swelling noted
to the face and was on an anticoagulant medication.
Interview on [DATE] at 8:40 A.M. with the current DON revealed the findings of the facility's investigation
were inconclusive as to how Resident #70 became to be on the floor in the early morning hours of [DATE].
The DON stated Resident #70 had a blanket on the floor and her oxygen tubing remained connected to her
tracheostomy. The DON stated it was a strong possibility the resident placed herself on the floor and laid
down. The DON did verify neurological checks were not completed on Resident #70 nor was the physician
notified of the resident's change in condition until after transport to the hospital on [DATE] at 7:32 A.M.
Interview on [DATE] at 11:55 P.M. with NP #195 verified Resident #70 had a history of erratic blood glucose
levels and stated the resident was afraid of being administered greater than 8 units of insulin for fear of it
stacking up due to her diagnosis of type I diabetes mellitus. NP #195 verified the facility, and specifically
previous DON #395, should have notified her immediately of the resident refusing the order for the 16 units
of insulin on [DATE] at 7:46 P.M. and the resident should have been reassessed between [DATE] at 7:46
P.M. and [DATE] at 2:42 A.M. with an update provided. NP #195 also verified she would have definitely
ordered the resident be sent to the hospital on [DATE] at 2:42 A.M. had she been notified by previous DON
#395.
Review of facility self-reported incidents from [DATE] revealed no evidence the facility notified the State
Survey Agency of a situation of neglect involving Resident #70's lack of assessment, treatment, and
notification of change to the physician or nurse practitioner.
Interview on [DATE] at 6:46 P.M. with Regional Director of Clinical Operations (RDCO) #199 verified the
facility did not submit their results of the investigation regarding the incident with Resident #70 in [DATE] to
the State Survey Agency within five working days of the incident.
2. Medical record review for Resident#59 revealed he admitted to the facility on [DATE]. Diagnoses included
orthostatic hypertension, cerebral vascular accident, depression, hypertension, hyperlipidemia, diabetes
mellitus (DM), and respiratory failure.

**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
observation, resident and staff interview, medical record review, review of the Long-Term Care Facility
Resident Assessment Instrument (RAI) 3.0 User's Manual, and review of a government website, the facility
failed to accurately code the status of a non-invasive mechanical ventilation on Minimum Data Set (MDS)
assessments. This affected one (#60) of four residents reviewed for ventilators. The facility census was 72.
Residents Affected - Few
Findings include:
Medical record review for Resident #60 revealed she was admitted to the facility on [DATE]. Diagnoses
included acute respiratory failure with hypoxia, pulmonary hypertension, congestive heart failure, asthma,
essential primary hypertension, chronic kidney disease, anemia, dysphagia, and diabetes mellitus.
Review of the MDS assessment, dated 02/18/25, for Resident #60 revealed she was cognitively intact.
Resident #60 was dependent on staff for medication administration, toilet use, and lower body dressing.
Resident #60 required maximum assistance from staff with showers. Further review of the MDS
assessment revealed Resident #60 required an invasive mechanical ventilator.
Review of the physician order summary for Resident #60 revealed an order, dated 02/14/25, for an Average
Volume Pressure Support (AVAPS) Ventilator (VT) as needed with ordered settings every evening and night
shift revealed to acute respiratory failure with hypoxia. Resident #60's also had an order dated 02/11/25 for
staff to visually check ventilator dependent residents per the care plan and as needed every evening shift
for resident status with instructions to check every two hours.
Interview and observation on 03/12/25 at 2:30 P.M. with Resident #60 revealed a Trilogy AVAP (noninvasive ventilator) on a rolling pole the resident stated she was connected to nightly via a continuous
positive airway pressure (CPAP)/bilevel positive airway pressure (BiPAP) mask. At the time of the
observation and interview, the resident was not connected to the Trilogy AVAP and not wearing the
CPAP/BIPAP mask.
Interview with MDS Nurse #104 on 03/11/25 at 8:55 A.M. confirmed Resident #60 was coded on the MDS
assessment dated [DATE] that the resident required an invasive mechanical ventilator. MDS Nurse #104
confirmed that was incorrect and Resident #60 should have been coded as a non- invasive mechanical
ventilator. MDS Nurse #104 confirmed the AVAP ventilator was a non-invasive mechanical ventilator.
Review of a government website at,
https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/books/NBK560600/#:~:text=Average%20volume%2Dassured%20pressure%20support%20(A
under the title of, Average Volume-Assured Pressure Support, dated 08/08/23, revealed different modalities
of non-invasive ventilation exist, with CPAP and BiPAP being the most commonly used modes. Average
volume-assured pressure support (AVAPS) is a relatively newer modality of non-invasive ventilation that
integrates the characteristics of both volume and pressure-controlled non-invasive ventilation.
Review of the Long-Term Care Facility RAI 3.0 User's Manual, version 1.19.1, dated October 2024,
revealed, in section O0110F1, under Invasive Mechanical Ventilator (ventilator or respirator), staff are to
code any type of electrically or pneumatically powered closed-system mechanical ventilator

support device that ensures adequate ventilation in the resident who is or who may become (such as
during weaning attempts) unable to support their own respiration in this item. During invasive mechanical
ventilation the resident's breathing is controlled by the ventilator. Residents receiving closed-system
ventilation include those residents receiving ventilation via an endotracheal tube (e.g., nasally or orally
intubated) or tracheostomy. A resident who has been weaned off a respirator or ventilator in the last 14
days or is currently being weaned off a respirator or ventilator, should also be coded here. Do not code this
item when the ventilator or respirator is used only as a substitute for BiPAP or continuous positive airway
pressure (CPAP).
Further review of the Long-Term Care Facility RAI 3.0 User's Manual, revealed, in section O0110G1, under
Non-invasive Mechanical Ventilator, staff are to code any type of CPAP or BiPAP respiratory support
devices that prevent airways from closing by delivering slightly pressurized air through a mask or other
device continuously or via electronic cycling throughout the breathing cycle. The BiPAP/CPAP mask/device
enables the individual to support their own spontaneous respiration by providing enough pressure when the
individual inhales to keep their airways open, unlike ventilators that breathe for the individual. If a ventilator
or respirator is being used as a substitute for BiPAP/CPAP, code here. This item may be coded if the
resident places or removes their own BiPAP/CPAP mask/device.

Provide appropriate pressure ulcer care and prevent new ulcers from developing.
Level of Harm - Actual harm
Based on medical record review, observation, staff interview, interview with the outside wound nurse
practitioner (NP), review of the facility policy, and review of online guidelines per the National Pressure
Ulcer Advisory Panel (NPUAP), the facility failed to thoroughly assess residents' skin and failed to identify
pressure ulcers until they reached an advanced stage. This resulted in Actual Harm for Resident #123 who
was admitted to the facility with a pressure ulcer to his sacrum and developed an additional pressure ulcer
to his right scapula which was not identified until it was an unstageable ulcer with slough (nonviable tissue
which could impede wound healing) and necrotic (dead) tissue. This affected one (Resident #123) of five
residents reviewed for pressure ulcers. The facility identified five residents with in-house acquired pressure
ulcers. The facility census was 72 residents.
Residents Affected - Few
Findings include:
Review of the medical record for Resident #123 revealed an admission date of 02/21/25 with diagnoses
including acute and chronic respiratory failure with hypoxia, major depressive disorder, essential primary
hypertension, pulmonary embolism, cerebral infarction, diabetes mellitus, and sacral pressure ulcer.
Review of the admission skin assessment for Resident #123 dated 02/21/25 revealed the resident was
admitted to the facility with a stage IV pressure ulcer to his sacrum.
Review of the shower sheet for Resident #123 completed by the Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA) dated
02/26/25 revealed the resident had no new skin issues.
Review of the progress note for Resident #123 dated 02/27/25 per Wound Nurse Practitioner (WNP) #250
revealed the resident had no wounds on his right shoulder.
Review of the Minimum Data Set (MDS) assessment for Resident #123 dated 02/28/25 revealed the
resident had impaired cognition and was dependent on staff for activities of daily living (ADLs).
Review of the online bathing documentation for Resident #123 per the CNAs dated 03/01/25 to 03/06/25
revealed the resident had a bed bath on the following dates: 03/01/25, 03/02/25, 03/05/25.
Review of the pressure ulcer risk assessment for Resident #123 dated 03/06/25 revealed the resident was
at high risk for the development of pressure ulcers.
Review of the care plan for Resident #123 updated 03/06/25 revealed the resident had impaired skin
integrity and was at risk for impaired skin integrity related to being confined to a bed all or most of the time,
history of pressure ulcers, the need for assistance with ADLs, the need for repositioning, status post
cerebral vascular accident (CVA), and ventilator use. Interventions included the following: apply protective
barrier cream after in continent episodes, assist resident with turning and reposition as needed, complete
skin inspection weekly and as needed, consult dietician as needed, elevate heels off the mattress, notify
nurse of any new areas of skin impairment noted during bathing or daily care, notify physician of any new
skin areas of skin impairment, pressure redistribution mattress, preventative treatments per orders, provide

Review of the nurse progress note for Resident #123 dated 03/06/25 per the facility wound nurse, Licensed
Practical Nurse (LPN) #150, revealed during wound rounds the nurse and Wound Nurse Practitioner (WNP)
#250 noted a Xeroform gauze dressing to the resident's right shoulder which was covering a pressure
ulcer. Neither LPN #150 nor WNP #250 were able to determine how long the wound to the resident's right
shoulder had been present.
Review of the progress note for Resident #123 dated 03/06/25 per WNP #250 revealed the resident had an
unstageable pressure area to the right shoulder which measured 1.5 centimeters (cm) in length by 1.0 cm
in width by 0.3 cm in depth. There was a medium amount of serosanguineous drainage from the wound
with no granulation tissue within the wound bed. There was a large area of 67 percent (%) to 100 % of
necrotic tissue and adherent slough tissue within the wound bed.
Review of the medical record for Resident #123 dated 02/21/25 to 03/06/25 revealed there were no skin
checks completed by licensed nurses during this time frame.
Interview on 03/13/25 at 9:06 A.M with the facility wound nurse, LPN#150 confirmed the facility had not

was at high risk for development of pressure ulcers. LPN #150 confirmed she completed wound rounds
every Thursday with WNP #250, and facility nurses were expected to complete resident skin assessments
on shower days twice weekly and notify her if they identified a new wound on a resident. LPN #150
confirmed the facility nurses had not completed skin assessments for Resident #123 from 02/21/25 to
03/06/25 and the CNA documentation dated 02/21/25 to 03/06/25 indicated the resident had no new skin
issues. LPN #150 confirmed during wound rounds with WNP #250 on 03/06/25 they identified a pressure
ulcer to Resident #123's right shoulder which was covered with an undated Xeroform gauze dressing. LPN
#150 further confirmed when she completed wound rounds with WNP #250 on 02/27/25 there was no
pressure ulcer or dressing present to Resident #123's right shoulder. LPN #150 confirmed the facility was
unable to determine who had placed the dressing to Resident #123's right shoulder, and the facility had not
identified the resident's pressure ulcer until 03/06/25 when the pressure ulcer to the resident's right
shoulder presented as an unstageable ulcer due to slough and necrotic tissue within the wound bed.
Observation on 03/13/25 at 1:45 P.M. of wound care for Resident #123 per LPN #150 revealed the resident
had a nickel-sized pressure ulcer to his right shoulder with yellow slough present in the wound bed.
Interview on 03/13/24 at 2:38 P.M. with WNP #250 confirmed the facility identified a new unstageable
pressure ulcer to Resident#123's right shoulder during wound rounds completed on 03/06/25. WNP #250
confirmed the wound on Resident #123's right scapula was not present during wound rounds on 02/27/25
and was not identified by the facility until it had reached an advanced stage with slough and necrotic tissue
present in the wound bed.
Review of the facility policy titled Pressure Injury Prevention Guidelines dated 10/30/20 revealed a resident
at risk could develop a pressure ulcer within hours of the onset of pressure the at-risk resident needed to
be identified and have interventions implemented promptly to attempt to prevent pressure ulcers. Residents
with pressure ulcers should receive necessary treatment and services consistent with professional
standards of practice to promote healing, prevent infection, and prevent new pressure ulcers from forming.

https://npiap.com/general/custom.asp?page=2014Guidelines, revealed facilities should educate health
professionals on how to undertake a comprehensive skin assessment that includes the techniques for
identifying blanching response, localized heat, edema, and induration. Further review of the guidelines
revealed ongoing assessment of the skin was necessary in order to detect early signs of pressure damage.
Visual assessment for erythema (redness of the skin) was the first component of every skin inspection. Skin
redness and tissue edema resulting from capillary occlusion was a response to pressure, especially over
bony prominences. Staff should conduct a head-to-toe assessment with particular focus on skin overlying
bony prominences including the sacrum, ischial tuberosities, greater trochanters and heels and each time
the patient was repositioned was an opportunity to conduct a brief skin assessment.
