Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Based on observation, resident interview, record review, staff interview and review of facility policy, the facility failed to assess a resident for self-administration of medications. This affected one (#46) of one resident reviewed for self-administration of medications. The facility census was 80. Residents Affected - Few Findings include: Review of Resident #46's medical record revealed an admission date of 09/16/22. Diagnoses included chronic respiratory failure, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), type II diabetes, atrial fibrillation, heart failure, dementia, major depressive disorder, atherosclerotic heart disease, hypertension and inflammatory disease of prostate. Review of the admission Minimum Data Set (MDS) assessment, dated 09/23/22, revealed Resident #46 had intact cognition. Review of physician orders revealed Resident #46 was prescribed albuterol sulfate HFA aerosol solution 109 micrograms/actuation (mcg/act) two puffs every six hours as needed for wheezing and fluticasone propionate solution 50 mcg/act spray in each nostril one time daily for congestion. Physician orders were silent for self-administration of medications.

Interview of Resident #46 at the time of the observation revealed he believed he was able to self-administer his medications and preferred to have his albuterol inhaler with him in case he needed it due to shortness of breath. Observation on 10/25/22 at 7:30 A.M. of Resident #46's room revealed the resident was sitting in his recliner with his walker placed next to him. The albuterol inhaler and fluticasone propionate were on the seat of Resident #46's walker. Observation on 10/25/22 at 11:23 A.M. of Resident #46 revealed the resident was sitting in his recliner. The albuterol inhaler and fluticasone propionate solution were no longer on the seat of his walker.

Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Review of the Pot Sink Sanitation Record on 10/24/22 at 10:36 A.M. revealed no sanitizer testing entries for 10/24/22. Residents Affected - Many Review of the sanitizer's manufacturer's directions revealed the quaternary ammonia was an effective sanitizer when prepared at 200 ppm. Observation on 10/25/22 at 9:30 A.M. of the three-compartment sink in the kitchen revealed a bottle of sanitizer/disinfectant sitting on the sink. Interview of DS #354 at the time of the observation revealed the servicing company had been out on 10/24/22 to check the function of the sanitizer dispenser and discovered the dispenser had a leak, resulting in no sanitizer being dispensed into the sanitization compartment of the sink. DS #354 stated parts had to be ordered to repair the dispenser and staff had to manually add one ounce of sanitizer for every three gallons of water until the dispenser could be repaired. Review of the Pot Sanitation Record on 10/25/22 at 9:30 A.M. revealed sanitization testing results had been entered on 10/24/22 at 5:00 A.M. and 11:00 A.M., with each test resulting in a sanitization level of 200 ppm. Interview of DS #354 at the time of the observation verified the entries on 10/24/22 at 5:00 A.M. and 11:00 A.M. were inaccurate because it had already been determined there was no sanitizer detected during observations made by this surveyor on 10/24/22. During a follow-up interview on 10/25/22 at 11:45 A.M., DS #354 stated the company who serviced the sanitizer dispenser for the three-compartment sink was at the facility at approximately 9:30 A.M. on 10/24/22 and remained at the facility for a couple of hours. DS #354 stated the sanitizer test result on the Pot Sink Sanitization Record on 10/24/22 at 5:00 A.M. was entered in error but the 11:00 A.M. entry was correct because the servicing company had confirmed by that time the sanitizer dispenser was not working and staff began manually adding sanitizer to the water. DS #354 stated he added the sanitizer to the sanitization compartment at approximately 10:00 A.M., which was why a test result was entered on 10/24/22 at 11:00 A.M. DS #354 provided this surveyor with the work order from the dispenser servicing company. DS #354 verified he signed the work order on 10/24/22 at 12:31 P.M. and confirmed he signed the work order when the technician completed work on the sanitizer dispenser. Additionally, DS #354 confirmed the work order indicated the technician spent approximately 0.5 hours at the facility, placing the technician at the facility at approximately 12:00 P.M. on 10/24/22. DS #354 verified staff manually added sanitizer to the sanitization compartment after the service technician left, indicating there was no sanitizer in the sanitization compartment until after 12:30 P.M. and the 11:00 A.M. test result entered on the Pot Sink Sanitization Record was inaccurate. Observation on 10/26/22 at 9:00 A.M. of DS #354 test the sanitizer level in the sanitization compartment of the three-compartment sink revealed a sanitization level of 150 ppm. DS #354 added additional sanitizer to the water in the sanitization compartment.
