F 0689 Level of Harm - Immediate jeopardy to resident health or safety Ensure that a nursing home area is free from accident hazards and provides adequate supervision to prevent accidents. **NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** THIS IS AN INCIDENCE OF PAST NON-COMPLIANCE THAT WAS SUBSEQUENTLY CORRECTED PRIOR TO THIS SURVEY. Residents Affected - Few Based on medical record review, staff interview, resident interview, and review of the facility ' s smoking policy, the facility failed to ensure Resident #34 did not smoke while wearing oxygen. This resulted in Immediate Jeopardy and the potential for serious life-threatening harm and/or injuries when agency State Tested Nursing Assistant (STNA) #10 took Resident #34 outside for a smoke break and lit the resident ' s cigarette while Resident #34 was wearing oxygen per nasal cannula. The oxygen ignited, resulting in burns to both nostrils and singed the nose hairs. This affected one (Resident #34) of four residents reviewed for smoking. The facility identified 16 residents (#01, #02, #05, #06, #09, #17, #19, #20, #22, #34, #39, #44, #45, #48, #52, and #156) who smoke and six residents (#05, #17, #19, #20, #34, and #45) who use oxygen and smoke.

STNA #10 took Resident #34 outside for a smoke break and lit the resident ' s cigarette resulting in the oxygen igniting. Consequently, the resident sustained burns to both nostrils and singed nose hairs. The Immediate Jeopardy was removed on 09/05/22 and the deficient practice was corrected on 10/02/22 when the facility implemented the following corrective actions: • On 09/04/22 at 9:35 A.M., Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) #23, LPN #38, and Respiratory Therapist (RT) #73 assessed Resident #34 and had no concerns. Resident #34 refused to go to the hospital for evaluation and treatment. Medical Director #150 was notified and instructed staff to continue monitoring and call if Resident #34 had a change of condition. • On 09/04/22 at 9:45 A.M., the DON verified safety devices (smoking blanket and fire extinguisher) were present in the designated smoking area. • On 09/04/22 at 11:30 A.M., RT Manager #20 assessed Resident #34. Vital signs were stable and there was no acute distress noted. The DON assessed Resident #34 and noted a blister to the resident s nose and cheek near the right nostril. • On 09/04/22 at 1:19 P.M., the DON educated all staff regarding the smoking policy and oxygen use.
