Provide basic life support, including CPR, prior to the arrival of emergency medical personnel , subject to
physician orders and the resident’s advance directives.
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
medical record review, staff interviews, review of the facility investigation, review of a personnel file, review
of an emergency medical services (EMS) run report, review of the facility's policy for Emergency Procedure
- Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation, review of the American Heart Association Journal, review of a job
description for Licensed Practical Nurses (LPNs), and review of the cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR)
certifications, the facility failed to timely initiate CPR for one resident (Resident #05) found unresponsive,
without a pulse or blood pressure, and who was identified as a Full Code status. This resulted in Immediate
Jeopardy and serious life-threatening harm, and/or death when Resident #05 did not receive timely CPR
after she was discovered with no pulse or blood pressure. This affected one (#05) of three residents (#05,
#06, #07) who expired unexpectedly at the facility. Additionally, the facility failed to ensure five [LPNs #101,
#123, #134, #141, and Registered Nurse (RN) #138] of 31 nurses employed by the facility had a current
CPR certification for Healthcare Providers. This placed all 39 current residents (#11, #12, #14, #15, #18,
#22, #23, #24, #25, #28, #29, #31, #32, #35, #36, #38, #39, #40, #41, #44, #45, #48, #49, #52, #54, #56,
#59, #60, #61, #64, #67, #70, #72, #74, #78, #80, #81, #83, and #86) designated with a Full Code
resuscitation status at potential risk for more than minimal harm that is not Immediate Jeopardy. The facility
census was 79.
On [DATE] at 4:05 P.M., the Administrator and Director of Nursing (DON) were notified Immediate Jeopardy
began on [DATE] at approximately 10:15 P.M. when Resident #05, who was a Full Code resuscitation
status, was found unresponsive by State Tested Nurse Aide (STNA) #113. STNA #113 notified LPN #225 of
Resident #05 being unresponsive, and EMS was notified at 10:22 P.M. LPN #225 assessed Resident #05
who was absent of vital signs and was pale. LPN #225 chose to exit the memory care unit and ran down
the hall yelling for assistance from other staff members, passing a crash cart on the nearest unit. LPN #226
and Registered Nurse (RN) #147 went to Resident #05's room and she was found lying on the bed alone.
No other staff were in the room and life-saving measures had not been initiated. RN #147 and LPN #226
placed Resident #05 on the floor and began chest compressions and staff followed with a crash cart.
Resident #05 was left alone without CPR initiated for approximately two minutes per interview with RN
#147. Through investigation, it was discovered LPN #225 refused to perform chest compression on
Resident #05 due to a shoulder issue; however, no such shoulder issue was noted in LPN #225's personnel
file. EMS arrived at 10:31 P.M. and took over life-saving interventions. The EMS physician called the time of
death at 11:09 P.M. The physician and Resident #05's family were notified of the resident's death and
notified the funeral home, who picked up Resident #05 on [DATE].
The Immediate Jeopardy was removed on [DATE] when the facility implemented the following corrective
actions:
•
On [DATE], LPN #225, who did not perform CPR on Resident #05, was suspended pending investigation.
LPN #225 was informed she could not return to work until further notice.
•
On [DATE], disciplinary action was taken with LPN #225 for not initiating CPR for a resident with a Full
Code resuscitation status. LPN #225 was called on [DATE] by Human Resources (HR) #192, the DON, and

Findings included:
Residents Affected - Few
Review of Resident #05's medical record revealed an original admission date of [DATE] and a readmission
date of [DATE]. Diagnoses included chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, dementia, bipolar disease, and
fibromyalgia.
Review of a physician order dated [DATE] revealed Resident #05 had a Full Code resuscitation status.
Review of Resident #05's care plan dated [DATE], revised on [DATE], revealed the resident had a Full Code
resuscitation status. An intervention included to initiate CPR in the absence of a pulse.
Review of a progress note dated [DATE] revealed Resident #05's code status was reviewed during a care
conference and Resident #05's family wished for the resident to remain a Full Code resuscitation status at
that time.
Review of nursing progress notes dated [DATE] at 2:10 P.M. revealed Resident #05 was very anxious and
agitated during the shift. Staff members attempted to provide redirection activities with little success. A
nurse practitioner was notified and provided new orders that were implemented. At 3:36 P.M., an antianxiety
medication was administered due to continued anxiousness and agitation and was noted as ineffective at
4:28 P.M. A nurse practitioner with psychiatric services was contacted and provided new orders. At 5:19
P.M., Resident #05 was administered an antipsychotic medication due to continued behaviors. At 6:15 P.M.,
Resident #05 was noted to continue with the same behaviors of yelling out, restlessness, and anxiousness.
Resident #05 complained of being short of breath, but continuously took her nasal cannula off which
supplied supplemental oxygen, and the resident was reminded several times to keep the oxygen on.
Resident #05's lung sounds were clear throughout, and oxygen saturation levels were at 94 percent (%). A
nurse practitioner was contacted and gave orders for a chest x-radiation (x-ray) diagnostic image and a
urinalysis to be obtained. Resident #05's responsible party was made aware of the resident's behavior and
the new orders.
Review of a progress note dated [DATE] revealed on [DATE] Resident #05 was checked on between 9:30
P.M. and 10:00 P.M. and was last seen with her nasal cannula on watching television in bed. A nurse aide
(STNA #113) noticed Resident #05 looked pale and noticed her nasal cannula was not in her nose and she
was holding it in her hand. The nurse aide notified the nurse (LPN #225) of Resident #05's condition and
found Resident #05 was unresponsive and vital signs were absent. The nurse told the nurse aide to contact
EMS and CPR was started immediately until EMS staff arrived and took over life saving measures.
Resident #05 expired at 11:09 P.M., and notifications were made to the on-call physician, unit manager,
family, and funeral home.
Review of the facility investigation initiated on [DATE] revealed the DON obtained a statement via an
interview from LPN #225 regarding Resident #05's death who resided on the locked memory care unit.
Further review of the investigation revealed LPN #225 instructed STNA #113 to call EMS. LPN #225 then
left the memory care unit, running and yelling down the hall, and passed a crash cart on the nearest unit.
RN #147 and LPN #226, from another unit, ran a crash cart back to the memory care unit to Resident #05's
room. Chest compressions were started on Resident #05 by LPN #226 and RN #147 while LPN #225
refused to complete chest compressions. LPN #225 informed the DON she could not do chest
compressions due to shoulder issues. It was determined there was no documentation in LPN #225's

personnel file indicating any restrictions to performing regular or essential job duties. The investigation
determined chest compressions were not immediately started on Resident #05 when she was found absent
vital signs, was unresponsive, pale, and had a Full Code resuscitation status in place.
Review of an EMS run report dated [DATE] revealed Resident #05 experienced cardiac arrest at 10:20:00
P.M. on [DATE]. EMS received the telephone call from the facility at 10:24:37 P.M., the call was dispatched
at 10:25:20 P.M., and EMS staff were enroute to the facility at 10:27:04 P.M. EMS staff arrived at the facility
at 10:29:03 P.M. and reached Resident #05 at 10:31:00 P.M. Further review of the EMS run report revealed
staff indicated the last known time Resident #05 was well was at 9:30 P.M. and facility staff found Resident
#05 unresponsive at 10:20 P.M. When EMS staff arrived, Resident #05 was laying on the floor with staff
performing chest compressions when EMS staff took over life-saving measures. Resident #05 was noted to
be pulseless, and the resident was not breathing. EMS continued with life saving measures for
approximately 30 minutes and Resident #05 continued to have no heartbeat. A physician was contacted to
request life-saving efforts be discontinued, and time of death was given at 11:09 P.M.
Interview on [DATE] at 9:51 A.M., with the Administrator and the DON revealed on [DATE] Resident #05
was found unresponsive, and LPN #225 refused to perform CPR. LPN #225 instructed STNA #113 to call
EMS and then left the unit to get assistance from other nurses. Two nurses from other units responded and
began CPR. The DON was not aware how long it took the staff to respond to Resident #05 and CPR to be
initiated. The DON confirmed CPR was delayed by LPN #225's refusal to begin chest compressions.
Telephone interview with RN #147 on [DATE] at 1:25 P.M. revealed, on [DATE], she was assigned to the
[NAME] unit of the facility, and LPN #226 was assigned to the Evergreen unit. RN #147 stated she saw LPN
#225 coming down the hall and heard LPN #225 yelling for assistance on the secured memory care unit.
RN #147 stated a nurse aide from [NAME] unit got the crash cart, and when the staff arrived at Resident
#05's room on the memory care unit, the resident was alone in the room lying in the bed. RN #147 stated
she and the nurse aide placed Resident #05 on the floor and began CPR while STNA #113 was on the
telephone with EMS. RN #147 stated LPN #225 stood in the doorway of the room and refused to assist with
CPR. RN #147 estimated it took the staff two minutes to reach Resident #05's room after being alerted of
the incident.
Review of STNA #113's written statement, obtained through interview with the DON, dated [DATE] revealed
STNA #113 entered Resident #05's room and noticed the resident looked very pale. STNA #113 and LPN
#225 both could not get Resident #05 to respond to them, so LPN #225 told STNA #113 to call EMS. STNA
#113 indicated LPN #225 then left the memory care unit and would be heard yelling for help. Two different
nurses returned to the memory care unit and began life-saving measures on Resident #05 while LPN #225
left the unit to talk to EMS and let them in the door.
Review of LPN #225's personnel file revealed a hire date of [DATE]. Further review revealed LPN #225 had
a current basic life support (BLS) certification on file with an expiration date of [DATE]. There was no
documentation in LPN #225's personnel file related to work restrictions or changes to job duties because of
shoulder issues. Review of a disciplinary action document dated [DATE] revealed LPN #225 was terminated
based on the facility policy to begin procedures for a resident that was in need of medical attention right
away, as being charge nurse of a whole unit. Further review revealed a resident (#05) was unresponsive on
the memory care unit where LPN #225 was the charge nurse. LPN #225 instructed STNA #113 to call
EMS, but LPN #225 left the unit yelling and calling for help while passing a crash cart on the nearest unit. A

SUMMARY STATEMENT OF DEFICIENCIES
(Each deficiency must be preceded by full regulatory or LSC identifying information)
F 0678
Level of Harm - Immediate
jeopardy to resident health or
safety
Residents Affected - Few
different staff members began chest compressions while LPN #225 refused to perform chest compressions
citing shoulder issues. There was nothing in LPN #225's personnel file indicting any job restrictions
preventing LPN #225 from performing essential job duties. LPN #225 was noted to be BLS certified, and
the facility determined LPN #225 did not immediately start chest compressions on Resident #05.
Review of the facility policy titled, Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation, revised [DATE], revealed it is the policy
of this facility to adhere to residents' rights to formulate advance directives. In accordance with these rights,
this facility will implement guidelines regarding CPR. The facility will follow current American Heart
Association (AHA) guidelines regarding CPR. If a resident experiences a cardiac arrest, facility staff will
provide basic life support, including CPR, prior to arrival of emergency medical services, and in accordance
with the resident's advance directives. CPR certified staff will be available at all times. Staff will maintain
current CPR certification for healthcare providers through CPR provided who evaluates proper technique
through in-person demonstration of skills. CPR certification which included an online knowledge component
yet still requires in-person demonstrations to obtain certification or recertification is also acceptable.
Review of the American Heart Association Journal, Vol. 122, No.18, found at
https://www.ahajournals.org/doi/10.1161/CIRCULATIONAHA.110.970905, revealed the goals of
resuscitation are to preserve life. Criteria for not starting CPR would include: Situations where attempts to
perform CPR would place the rescuer at risk of serious injury or mortal peril; Obvious clinical signs of
irreversible death (e.g., rigor mortis, dependent lividity, decapitation, transection, or decomposition); or a
valid, signed, and dated advance directive indicating that resuscitation is not desired, or a valid, signed, and
dated do not resuscitate order.
2. Review of the documentation provided by the facility revealed 31 nurses were currently employed by the
facility. Of those 31 nurses, four LPNs (#101, #123, #134, #141) and one RN (#138) had expired CPR
certification for Healthcare Providers.
Interview on [DATE] at 12:54 P.M., with the DON verified five facility-employed nurses (LPNs #101, #123,
#134, #141, and RN #138) had expired CPR certification.
Review of the undated facility job description for Licensed Practical Nurses (LPNs) revealed LPNs must
identify resident problems and emergency situation and initiate emergency care and lifesaving measures in
the absence of a physician.
This deficiency represents non-compliance investigated under Master Complaint Number OH00151169.
