F 0580 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Few Immediately tell the resident, the resident's doctor, and a family member of situations (injury/decline/room, etc.) that affect the resident. **NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on record review, interview and review of facility policy and procedure the facility failed to notify the physician when Resident #19's blood sugar was above 350 per physician order. This affected one resident (Resident #19) out of two residents reviewed for unnecessary medication that received glucometer checks. This had the potential to affect seven residents (Resident #10, #19, #20, #21, #27, #131, and #181) that received blood sugar checks per glucometer. The facility census was 28. Findings include: Review of the medical record for Resident #19 revealed an admission date of 06/21/19 and diagnoses that included diabetes, chronic kidney disease, and spinal stenosis. Review of the care plan dated 09/03/19 revealed Resident #19 had diabetes. Interventions included diabetes medications as ordered by the physician, monitor, document, and report to the physician as needed signs and symptoms of hypoglycemia and hyperglycemia (low/high blood sugar). Review of the quarterly minimum data set (MDS) assessment dated [DATE] revealed Resident #19 had impaired cognition and required supervision with bed mobility and limited assistance of one person with transfers. She was unable to ambulate. Review of physician orders for December 2019 revealed Resident #19 had an order for Humalog (insulin) solution 100 units per milliliter and inject subcutaneously at bedtime per sliding scale (according to results of blood sugar checks) for diabetes. She was to receive zero units for a accu-chek (blood sugar check) from 70 to 249, she was to receive one unit of insulin with an accu-chek from 250 to 299, she was to receive two units of insulin with an accu-chek from 300 to 349, and if the accu-chek was above 350 she was to receive two units of insulin and the nurse was to notify her physician. Review of the Medication Administration Record (MAR) for December 2019 revealed on 12/09/19 Resident #19's accu-chek at 9:00 P.M. was 385, and on 12/26/19 her accu-chek at 9:00 P.M. was 386. She received two units of Humalog solution subcutaneously. Review of nursing notes for Resident #19 from 12/01/19 through 12/31/19 revealed on 12/09/19 and on 12/26/19 there was no documentation the physician was contacted regarding Resident #19's accu-chek above 350 per her physician order. Interview with the Director of Nursing (DON) on 01/02/19 at 2:05 P.M. verified Resident #19 had an order to contact the physician if her blood sugar was above 350. She verified on 12/09/19 her accu(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 0584 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Few Honor the resident's right to a safe, clean, comfortable and homelike environment, including but not limited to receiving treatment and supports for daily living safely. **NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on record review, interview and observation the facility failed to ensure Resident #20's wheelchair was maintained in safe condition. This affected one of 28 residents observed for environment. The facility census was 28. Findings include: Resident #20 was admitted to the facility on [DATE] with diagnoses including heart failure, morbid obesity and diabetes mellitus type two. Review of the Plan of Care with an initial date of 08/08/19 revealed he was at risk for skin breakdown due to his morbid obesity and diabetes mellitus type two. The Minimum Data Set assessment (MDS) dated [DATE] revealed he had cognitive impairment, needed limited assistance of one person for bed mobility and transfers and extensive assistance of one person for toileting, dressing and hygiene. He was able to move on an off the unit using his wheelchair. Observation was conducted on 12/30/19 at 9:26 A.M. of Resident #20 sitting in the hallway. The right arm of his wheelchair was missing the padded covering exposing the bare metal. There were two metal pins approximately 1/3 inch in diameter and half an inch long protruding out of the arm rest and leaving multiple indents in the skin of his right arm. Activity Director (AD) #900 was passing by at 9:46 A.M. and verified the right arm rest was missing the padding. AD #900 said she was unaware it was broken. Resident #20 interjected it had been like that for one month. Observation and interview was conducted on 12/31/19 at 8:57 A.M. to 9:10 A.M. with Resident #20. The right arm rest padding was still missing. The metal pins were digging into his arm leaving multiple circular indents in the shape of the pin head. This was verified with the Administrator at 8:58 A.M. The Administrator added Resident #20 was supposed to be getting a new chair from Hospice due to his tendency to slide forward in his current chair. At 9:10 A.M. the Administrator found a replacement handle from a spare wheelchair in storage at the facility and fixed the wheelchair arm rest for the resident.

F 0880 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Few third toe. RN #600 removed her gloves and washed her hands. She applied a new pair of gloves. She then cleansed Resident #19's left lateral lower leg, left proximal lower leg, left great toe and left third toe. RN #600 did not remove her gloves or wash her hands in between cleansing of each wound area. After cleansing each wound, she removed her gloves and washed her hands and applied a new pair of gloves. She then applied silver sulfadiazine cream one percent to Resident #19's left lateral lower leg, left proximal lower leg, left great toe and left third toe. She used the same pair of gloved hands to apply the silver sulfadiazine cream to all the areas and did not wash her hands and apply new gloves between each wound. She then applied a four by four dressing to the left lower leg wounds and wrapped the area with gauze. She then applied a four by four dressing to her left great toe and taped the area. She wrapped Resident #19's left leg with an ace wrap per order. RN #600 then removed her gloves and washed her hands. Interview with RN #600 on 12/31/19 at 9:49 A.M. verified she cleansed all Resident #19's wounds at the same time not washing her hands or applying new gloves in between each wound. She verified she applied the silver sulfadiazine cream to each wound using the same pair of gloves and did not wash her hands between each wound. She verified Resident #600's left lower proximal leg wound was being treated with antibiotics for a MRSA infection per the culture report. She verified not washing her hands between each wound caused increased potential for cross contamination. Interview with the Director of Nursing on 12/31/19 at 10:40 A.M. verified RN #600 should not have cleansed all of Resident #19's wounds without washing her hands in between each wound. She also verified RN #600 should not have applied silver sulfadiazine cream to each of the wounds using the same pair of gloves and not washing her hands between each wound. She verified Resident #19 had MRSA in her left lower proximal leg wound and was receiving antibiotic therapy per the wound clinic recommendations. She verified not washing her hands and changing gloves between each wound caused increased risk of cross contamination. Review of facility policy, Dressing, Dry/ Clean that was revised August 2011 revealed the purpose was to provide guidelines for the application of a dry, clean dressing. The policy did not specify to not cleanse two or more wounds at the same time without performing hand hygiene between each wound or did not specify in the policy not to apply the same cream or treatment to two or more wounds without performing hand hygiene between application of the treatment. The policy did not specify to complete wound care separately for each area when performing dressing changes.
