F 0692 Provide enough food/fluids to maintain a resident's health. Level of Harm - Actual harm **NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on medical record review, review of resident fluid intakes, review of physician orders, staff interview, review of physician communication sheets, review of a hospital history and physical, review of hospital consultation notes, and review of facility policy, the facility failed to ensure a resident's hydration status was maintained to decrease the risk of dehydration. This resulted in actual harm when Resident #58 had a decrease in oral fluid intake for three days and was subsequently hospitalized with acute kidney injury, severe dehydration, and severe sepsis. This affected one (#58) of three residents reviewed for hydration status. The facility census was 71. Residents Affected - Few Findings include: Review of Resident #58's medical record revealed an admission date of 09/09/23 and a readmission date of 10/07/23. Diagnoses included cerebral infarction, hemiplegia and hemiparesis, dysarthria, aphasia, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), congestive heart failure (CHF), chronic kidney disease, heart disease, anxiety disorder, bipolar disorder, hypertension, and atrial fibrillation. Review of the admission Minimum Data Set (MDS) assessment dated [DATE] revealed Resident #58 was severely cognitively impaired and required extensive assistance with activities of daily living, including eating. Review of a plan of care focus area initiated 09/11/23 and revised 10/12/23, revealed Resident #58 was at increased nutrition/hydration risk related to stroke, dysphagia with need for mechanically altered diet, and takes medication which can affect appetite or weight. Additionally, Resident #58 had decreased food and fluid intake, avoidable weight loss over past 30 days due to decline in condition, refusal of meals and poor oral intakes. Interventions included encourage honey thickened liquids between meals, monitor for signs and symptoms of dehydration/fluid volume deficit, monitor labs as available, monitor for decline in eating ability and assist as needed, monitor weight, and diet as ordered. Review of physician orders revealed Resident #58 was on a regular, pureed diet with honey thickened liquids and was ordered furomeside (diuretic - used to remove water and electrolytes from the body by increasing urination) oral tablet 10 milligrams (mg) two times daily. Review of the Medication Administration Record (MAR) from 09/15/23 through 09/22/23 revealed Resident #58 was administered furomeside 10 mg as ordered on each of the days reviewed. Review of a Nutritional assessment dated [DATE] revealed Resident #58 received honey thickened liquids, required limited assist/supervision with feeding, had inadequate fluid intake, and swallowing (continued on next page) Any deficiency statement ending with an asterisk (*) denotes a deficiency which the institution may be excused from correcting providing it is determined that other safeguards provide sufficient protection to the patients.

F 0692 Level of Harm - Actual harm Residents Affected - Few days. Additionally, Resident #58 now had altered mentally so they decided to send her to the Emergency Department (ED). Resident #58 had acute encephalopathy (alteration of mental status), severe sepsis with hypotension (likely due to significant dehydration), severe dehydration due to no oral intake of food/water for the last three days (reported), significant hypernatremia (likely due to dehydration and leading to altered mental status), acute kidney injury on top of chronic kidney disease, mild acute respiratory failure with hypoxemia due to COPD exacerbation, and mild COPD exacerbation with unknown trigger at this time. Physical examination revealed the resident had a very dry tongue and oral mucosa (the mucus membrane or skin inside the mouth, including cheeks and lips). Resident #58 was admitted to the intensive care unit for closer monitoring of oxygen levels, regular diet started, daily weight and strict input and output, ED given boluses, continue Intravenous (IV) one-half normal saline (NS) at 75 milliliters/hour (ml/hr.), doing no antibiotics now as there is no evidence of infection. Lastly, furomeside (diuretic) was discontinued. Review of hospital consultation notes dated 09/23/23 revealed Resident #58 was admitted to the hospital due to acute kidney injury, hypernatremia (high concentration of sodium in the blood), acute encephalopathy (alteration of mental status), hypotension (low blood pressure), severe sepsis, hyperkalemia (high potassium), and dehydration. Additional review revealed resident admitted with report of more than two days of poor oral intake of food and water. Treatment included dextrose 5 percent in water IV solution 1,500 milliliters (ml) 150 milliliters/hour (ml/hr) and sodium chloride 10 ml IV push two times daily. Further review of the medical record revealed no evidence Resident #58 was assessed for dehydration signs and symptoms prior to hospitalization. Interview on 10/16/23 at 2:07 P.M. with PA #300 revealed she recalled a conversation with someone at the facility about supplements for Resident #58. She did not specifically recall a conversation about fluid intakes. PA #300 stated she knew the resident's intakes were poor, but she was unaware the resident had not consumed any fluids on 09/20/23 and 09/22/23 and had only had 420 ml (16 ounces) on 09/21/23. PA #300 stated she saw Resident #58 on 09/20/23, but the resident was on transmission-based precautions, so she only saw her from the door and did not physically examine her. PA #300 stated she did not recall any specific concerns related to Resident #58's fluid intakes, noting the facility wanted her to back them but she did not remember notification of fluid concerns. PA #300 stated she probably would have discontinued Resident #58's furomeside if she had known the resident's fluid intakes were that low. Interview on 10/16/23 at 2:24 P.M. with CM #250 revealed she had a conversation with PA #300 about a supplement for Resident #58 due to poor meal intakes. No changes were made because the dietitian stated the resident's weight was stable. CM #250 confirmed the communication with PA #300 was related to poor meal intakes and not inadequate fluid intakes. Interview on 10/17/23 9:41 A.M. with Corporate Nurse (CN) #275 revealed Resident #58's vital signs had been monitored two times daily and had been stable up to the day the resident was sent out to the hospital. CN #275 stated Resident #58 had stable pulses and BP and there were no outwardly signs of obvious dehydration. The facility had been trialing some different things to increase the resident's intakes. CN #275 stated Resident #58 refused meals, fluids, care, and would become aggressive toward staff. CN #275 stated based on Resident #58's presentation, the staff were doing whatever they could and did what they needed to do. Additionally, CN #275 stated Resident #58 was on a pureed diet, and while she could not measure the amount of fluid in pureed diets, Resident #58 was receiving fluids through meals.

F 0692 Level of Harm - Actual harm Residents Affected - Few Interview on 10/17/23 at 10:19 A.M. of Registered Dietitian (RD) #200 revealed Resident #58 had been discussed at the facility's weekly nutrition at risk meetings. RD #200 stated Resident #58 refused meals and fluids and would hit staff. RD #200 stated all foods contain a certain percent of water, based on the food, and it was possible Resident #58 received enough fluids to sustain her through a pureed diet. RD #200 stated she would review the meals and Resident #58's intakes to calculate an estimate of fluids the resident would have received from eating a pureed diet. Follow up interview on 10/17/23 at 12:03 P.M. with PA #300 revealed she may have been remembering the wrong resident when she spoke with this surveyor on 10/16/23. PA #300 stated she was now retired, working off of memory, and could not recall all of the details. PA #300 stated she had the resident confused with another resident and she did actually evaluate Resident #58 on 09/20/23 and had no concerns related to dehydration. While PA #300 stated she was notified by the facility on 09/19/23, Resident #58 had poor oral intakes, she believed that to mean the resident was drinking low liquids, not no liquids, which was why she deferred to the dietitian. Additionally, on 09/21/23, PA #300 stated she ordered Boost Breeze, and that was a fluid. PA #300 confirmed she was unaware Resident #58 had only consumed one - eight ounce Boost Breeze on 09/21/23 and none on 09/22/23. While some fluids could be obtained through foods, she was uncertain if it would be a sufficient amount to prevent dehydration. PA #300 verified furomeside would increase the risk of dehydration, especially in someone who was not consuming sufficient fluids, and she did not know why that was not addressed for Resident #58. Follow-up interview on 10/17/23 at 2:45 P.M. with CN #275 confirmed while Resident #58's vital signs were stable in the days leading up to her hospitalization, there was no evidence of nursing assessment for other indicators of dehydration, including sunken eyes, skin turgor, or oral mucosa. Interview on 10/18/23 at 9:24 A.M. with RD #200 verified she was not in the kitchen when Resident #58's meals were prepared and was unable to verify if the proper amounts of fluid was added to the resident's pureed meals and/or served to the resident. Review of facility policy titled, Hydration Policy, approved 03/17/16, revealed the facility will provide each resident with sufficient fluid intake to maintain proper hydration status. Sufficient fluid means the amount of fluid needed to prevent dehydration and maintain health. The amount needed is specific for each resident, and fluctuates as the resident's condition fluctuates. This deficiency represents non-compliance investigated under Complaint Number OH00146850.
