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, review of an injury report, interview and policy review, the facility failed to ensure a physician and responsible party received timely notification of an accident involving one (Resident #338) and one (Resident #339) and/or responsible party were timely notified of a room change. This affected two (Resident's #338 and #339) of two residents reviewed for notification. The census was 78. Findings include: 1. Review of Resident #338's closed medical record revealed diagnoses including Alzheimer's disease, dementia, anxiety disorder, diabetes mellitus, and acquired absence of the left below the knee amputation. A quarterly Minimum Data Set (MDS) 3.0 assessment dated [DATE] indicated Resident #338 was severely cognitively impaired and required supervision for locomotion on and off the unit. A Nurse Practitioner progress note dated 09/15/20 at 5:32 P.M. indicated Resident #338 had an appointment at the podiatrist who wanted to send her to the emergency department to evaluate her toe for blood flow. The note indicated Resident #338's daughter was upset and alleging Resident #338 got hurt at the facility when someone ran over her toe. Resident #338's daughter was requesting a copy of the incident report. (There had been no documentation of an accident/injury involving anybody running over Resident #338's toe in the medical record prior to this.) Review of a witness statement by Activity Employee #120 dated 09/07/20 indicated Resident #338's foot was accidentally run over by a rollator used by another resident. The incident was reported to Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) #446. Review of a witness statement by LPN #446 dated 09/07/20 indicated Resident #338's foot looked to be slightly red when assessed after the accident was reported. Review of a form titled Injuries, dated 09/07/20, indicated the location of the injury was the right foot and toes. The report indicated Resident #338 was wheelchair bound. Interview on 09/15/21 at 1:58 P.M., the Director of Nursing (DON) verified there was no documented evidence Resident #338's responsible party or physician were notified regarding the incident on 09/07/20 until the nurse practitioner documented the daughter's concern on 09/15/20. 2. Review of Resident #339's closed medical record revealed he was admitted to the facility into room [ROOM NUMBER]. Diagnoses included anoxic brain damage, anxiety disorder, need for assistance with personal care, and generalized muscle weakness. Documentation in the census tab of the electronic health record indicated Resident #339 was moved to room [ROOM NUMBER] on 08/20/20.

F 0580 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Few evidence Resident #339 was provided notification prior to the move or that Resident #339's sister was notified. On 09/16/21 at 10:20 A.M. Resident #339's sister was interviewed and stated when Resident #339 was admitted to the facility he was placed on a quarantine unit. After being in the same room for more than a month, he was moved. Resident #339's sister stated she was not made aware of the move and when she asked Resident #339 about the move, he indicated he was not given notice either. Interview on 09/16/21 at 1:10 P.M., the DON verified she was unable to find documented evidence of notification prior to the room change. Review of the policy for room change, reviewed 02/14/17, revealed notification of room change requirements were considered part of the resident's rights and should be respected as any other resident right.

F 0600 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Few Protect each resident from all types of abuse such as physical, mental, sexual abuse, physical punishment, and neglect by anybody. Based on medical record review, review of personnel files, review of facility reported incidents, review of the facility's Abuse policy, review of the employee handbook and interview, the facility failed to ensure staff did not misappropriate resident property. This affected one (Resident #340) of five residents reviewed for misappropriation. The facility census was 78. Findings include: Review of Temporary Nurse Aide #121's personnel file revealed she was hired 01/27/20 as a hospitality aide. The employee became a Temporary Nurse Aide on 09/18/20. The personnel file contained a statement from Business Office Manager #3 which indicated on 11/10/20, Counselor #122 reported Temporary Nurse Aide #121 asked Resident #340 for money (and received money) on several occasions. Temporary Nurse Aide #121 promised to repay Resident #340 on pay day. Temporary Nurse Aide #121 would not repay the money. A statement by Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) #19 dated 11/14/20 indicated Resident #340 indicated Temporary Nurse Aide #121 had borrowed from her more than once but never repaid the last $25 she borrowed. Resident #340 reported Temporary Nurse Aide #121 would go to her crying she needed money. LPN #19 indicated Resident #340 had already reported this to Business Office Manager #3. The personnel file also contained communication from Counselor #122 which indicated Resident #340 reported to the counselor that Temporary Nurse Aide #121 borrowed $20.00 from her once and $25.00 from her on five different occasions. Resident #340 told the counselor the last time Temporary Nurse Aid #121 borrowed money it was not repaid. Resident #340 was upset as she had a limited income. Counselor #122 indicated she reported the information to Business Office Manager #3. Review of Facility Reported Incidents submitted by the facility revealed no report of Resident #340 alleging Temporary Nurse Aide #121 was borrowing money from and not repaying it. Review of the facility's Ohio Abuse, Neglect and Misappropriation policy, reviewed 05/30/19, revealed exploitation was identified as taking advantage of a resident for personal gain through the use of manipulation, intimidation, threats or coercion. Misappropriation of resident property was identified as deliberate misplacement, exploitation, or wrongful, temporary, or permanent use of a resident's belongings or money without the resident's consent. Interview on 09/15/21 at 11:05 A.M., the Administrator stated while he was investigating an allegation of unauthorized use of a different resident's debit card by Temporary Nurse Aide #121, she was suspended. When the facility contacted Temporary Nurse Aide #121 about Resident #340's concerns about not being repaid, reported she had been unable to repay her because she was not permitted in the facility. With permission, Temporary Nurse Aide #121 dropped the payment off in the facility parking lot. The Administrator indicated he did not identify this as misappropriation of Resident #340's property because she was paid back. Interview on 09/15/21 at 4:14 P.M., the Administrator stated he would understand the concern about Temporary Nurse Aide #121 borrowing money from Resident #340 if the resident was confused. The Administrator reported Temporary Nurse Aide #121 was suspended indefinitely 11/20/20. Review of Resident #340's medical record revealed diagnoses of psychosis, post-traumatic stress disorder, depression, mood affective disorder, and anxiety disorder.

F 0684 Provide appropriate treatment and care according to orders, resident’s preferences and goals. Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Based on medical record review and staff interview, the facility failed to ensure treatments for a wound were implemented in a timely manner. This affected one (Resident #339) of two residents reviewed for non-pressure related skin impairment. The facility census was 78. Residents Affected - Few Findings include: Review of Resident #339's medical record indicated an admission date of 06/12/20. Diagnoses included complications of gastric band procedure and anoxic brain damage. Hospital discharge instructions revealed instruction to continue to change midline wound dressing daily. A collagen dressing was to be changed daily and covered with dry gauze. A hand-written nurse to nurse report indicated Resident #339 had a midline incision from an old surgery which had healed but had two open areas. Review of the admission assessment indicated Resident #339 had a surgical incision on the abdomen (no indication of a size or appearance) and a rash. The assessment indicated there was not a treatment order in place for each area noted. There was no documented evidence the physician was contacted for a treatment order and the order on the hospital discharge instructions was not transcribed onto Resident #339's orders or treatment administration records. On 06/19/20, an order was written for a weekly skin evaluation. No skin evaluation was documented at that time. A wound doctor note dated 06/24/20 indicated Resident #339 had a persistent abdominal wound related to his original surgery so the doctor was asked by nursing to see Resident #339 to evaluate his wound for treatment recommendations and management. The wound doctor note indicated the wound had five areas with scarred epithelial bridges in between. All the areas were irregular ovoid-shaped hyper granulated wounds with mild serosanguinous drainage. The wound doctor assessed Resident #339 with an abdominal post-surgical grade one dehiscence (surgical wound dehiscence is the separation of the margins of a closed surgical incision that had been made in skin, with or without exposure or protrusion of underlying tissue, organs, or implants. Grade one indicated only the dermal layer was involved) that would benefit from debridement of the hyper granulation tissue to facilitate wound closure. The wound doctor ordered initiated treatment. Interview on 09/15/21 at 2:05 P.M., the Director of Nursing (DON) verified discharge orders from the hospital contained instructions for wound care which were not transcribed or implemented. The DON verified she was unable to locate assessments from the time of admission until the wound doctor saw Resident #339 on 06/24/20. The DON verified there was no evidence of a treatment initiated until 06/25/20. This deficiency substantiates Complaint Number OH000114133.

F 0688 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Few Provide appropriate care for a resident to maintain and/or improve range of motion (ROM), limited ROM and/or mobility, unless a decline is for a medical reason. **NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** 2. Review of Resident #339's medical record revealed diagnoses including anoxic brain injury, need for assistance with personal care, and generalized muscle weakness. On 07/28/20 an order was written for restorative active ROM to the right upper extremity, active assisted ROM to both lower extremities six to seven days a week to total 15 minutes a day to maintain Resident #339's current function. The order indicated Resident #339 required moderate assistance and verbal and tactile cues. Review of an August 2020 Treatment Administration Record (TAR) revealed nurses initialed the range of motion order as completed but did not indicate the time spent providing the services. Interview on 09/16/21 at 12:19 P.M., LPN #46 stated nurses did not perform the restorative ROM program but were supposed to check with the aides to determine if the ROM was performed. Aides performed and documented the ROM program when it was performed. Review of documentation by nursing assistants revealed between 08/02/20 and 08/08/20 ROM was provided two days. Between 08/09/20 and 08/15/20 ROM was provided a minimum of 15 minutes three days with two days marked as not applicable. Interview on 09/16/21 at 3:12 P.M., the DON verified restorative records did not reveal services were provided with the ordered frequency. This deficiency substantiates Complaint Number OH000114133. Based on record review, interviews, observation and policy review, the facility failed to ensure restorative therapy was performed per the resident's physician's orders and plan of care. This affected two (Resident's #12 and #339) of four reviewed for activities of daily living (ADL). The facility census was 78. Findings include: 1. Record review revealed Resident #12 was admitted to the facility on [DATE] with diagnoses including multiple sclerosis (MS), quadriplegia, spondylolysis, and radiculopathy of lumbar and cervical region.

The resident confirmed she has not received restorative therapy since she had completed therapy months ago. She stated she only received therapy for approximately two weeks. Further observation and interview with Resident #12 on 09/13/21 at 11:20 A.M., revealed the resident was not able to extend or stretch her fingers to a neutral position. The resident reported she could not extend her legs to a neutral position or raise her bilateral shoulders to a neutral position. The resident reported she was able to extend bilateral hands and legs after therapy, however since she was not receiving therapy or restorative for months her range of motion (ROM) worsened. The resident reported she was dependent on staff prior and was still dependent on staff for all her ADL's, however she had noticed she was getting weaker in her upper body strength.

The discharge recommendation was for the ROM program including active ROM to BUE (elbows and shoulders) and passive ROM to BUE (wrist and fingers) and bilateral lower extremity (BLE) active ROM and passive ROM. Review of the facility policy titled Restorative Program, dated 07/26/18, revealed active ROM was the performance of an exercise to move a joint without any assistance or effort of another person to the muscles or surrounding the joint. Passive ROM was the movement of a joint through the range of motion with no effort from the patient. The purpose of the policy was to implement a plan of action for resident-specific care to maintain or improve mobility with the maximum practicable independence unless a reduction in mobility was demonstrably unavoidable. The medical director, director of nursing, and therapy would be accountable and have oversight of the program. The staff would be trained and competent and there would be sufficient staff to meet the needs of the program and resident care.

F 0689 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Few 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** Based on medical record review, review of facility smoking list, observation, interview, and policy review the facility failed to ensure residents were provided adequate supervision while smoking and failed to ensure accurate comprehensive smoking assessments were completed. This affected two (Resident #12 and #62) of four reviewed for accidents. The facility census was 78. Findings included: 1. Record review revealed Resident #12 was admitted to the facility on [DATE] with diagnoses including cigarette nicotine dependence, multiple sclerosis (MS), quadriplegia, spondylolysis, and radiculopathy of lumbar and cervical region. Review of the facility smoking list dated 09/01/21 revealed Resident #12 was listed as supervision with and a smoking apron. Review of Resident #12's smoking assessment dated [DATE] revealed the resident had dexterity problems, smoked six to 10 times daily, could light her own cigarette, required a cigarette holder, and could dispose of a cigarette appropriately. The assessment did not include the use of a smoking apron or required supervision. Interview and observation on 09/13/21 at 11:24 A.M., revealed Resident #12 was outside smoking without supervision or a smoking apron in place. The resident had a ring noted on her right index finger that held the cigarette. The resident reported staff must assist her outside, and they usually light her cigarette and then leave. The staff does not stay outside with her or supervise her while she smokes. Resident #12 reported the facility had smoking aprons, but staff does not give her one. The smoking aprons were observed hanging on the pavilion. The smoking aprons were in disrepair and had black mold on them. The resident confirmed she was unable to get a cigarette out of the package or light a cigarette due to medical conditions and contractures. She stated she lets the cigarette burn to the end and usually another resident would dispose of it for her. She was noted to be disposing ashes by taping the cigarette off her wheelchair, and the ashes were landing on the concrete floor. The other unidentified residents present reported they do not keep their smoking materials in the locked mailbox outside by the smoking pavilion. Resident #12 confirmed she keeps her smoking material on her because she cannot use the mailbox due to her medical condition. Interview and observation on 09/14/21 at 10:23 A.M., the Resident #12 was observed outside smoking without supervision or a smoking apron. The findings were confirmed by Social Service (SS) #91. SS #91 verified Resident #12 should be supervised and wearing a smoking apron. Observation on 09/14/21 at 10:53 A.M., revealed Resident #12 was still outside smoking without supervision or a smoking apron. Observation on 09/14/21 at 1:40 P.M., Resident #12 was observed outside with two other residents unsupervised and no smoking apron. Observation on 09/14/21 at 2:06 P.M. of Resident #12 with the Director of Nursing (DON) revealed the resident was outside smoking unsupervised and no smoking apron.

F 0689 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Few confirmed the resident was not safe to smoke independently and required supervision. The DON could not answer why residents were smoking unsupervised. The resident reported the burn marks on her legs were prior to her admission in the facility. The resident reported she had no feelings in her legs. The one scar was from sitting a bowl of hot food on her legs and she didn't feel it was burning her. When her caregiver removed the bowl from the lap, her skin was attached to the bottom of the bowl. The residents have a mailbox outside where they were supposed to store their smoking materials. Each resident had their own key for the box. The DON confirmed Resident #12's smoking assessment was inaccurate to reflect the resident able to light cigarette and dispose of it properly. The DON also reported the assessment should have included the use of a smoking apron and staff supervision. The nurse completing the form did not document the resident's type of supervision or safety equipment. The DON reported the resident sits outside almost all day and smokes when she was not on a leave of absence. Review of the facility policy titled Nursing Services/Smoking, dated 03/25/18, revealed the smoking apron was a fire resistant apron used to cover the torso or body and lag to aid in preventing cigarette ashes or dropping cigarettes from igniting clothing. A supervised smoker was a resident that was unable to demonstrate safe smoking habits including smoking materials management, lighting, controlling a cigarette ash and extinguishing smoking material and requires staff supervision when smoking. All smoking materials will be maintained by the facility staff and provide to the residents upon request. All smoking materials will be returned to the facility staff upon completion of smoking. Supervised smoking would be performed by staff members. 2. Review of the medical record for Resident #62 revealed an admission date of 08/09/21 with diagnoses including laceration to the left lower leg, history of falls, nicotine use, and a short stature due to an endocrine disorder. The MDS 3.0 assessment dated [DATE] revealed the resident had intact cognition and used tobacco products. Review of the nursing progress note dated 08/11/21 revealed the resident smoked cigarettes and was considered an unsafe smoker. The physician progress note dated 08/19/21 revealed Resident #62 was an unsafe smoker. Observations on 09/13/21 at 12:45 P.M. and on 09/15/21 at 12:55 P.M. of Resident #62 in her room revealed an electronic cigarette and a full pack of cigarettes sitting on her tray table. Observation on 09/16/21 at 11:27 P.M. revealed Resident #62 to have an open pack of cigarettes and a lighter on her tray table. There were no staff present in the room during these observations. Observation on 09/14/21 at 1:53 P.M. revealed Resident #62 to be smoking a cigarette in the designated smoking area outside at the facility. Resident #62 did not have a smoking apron over her clothing during this observation. Resident #62 was observed dropping ashes on her clothing as she was unable to extend her arm out past her body frame to flick the ashes from her cigarette. Hospitality Aide #100 was observed supervising the resident, however, did not intervene to assist the resident with disposing of her ashes properly so that they would not fall on her clothing. The facility document titled Canfield Smokers, dated 09/01/21, revealed Resident #62 needed to be supervised and wear a smoking apron while smoking. The facility policy titled Resident/Patient Smoking, reviewed 05/30/19, stated the facility will secure smoking materials in a locked area when not in use by the resident/patient for both independent and supervised smokers. The policy stated that smoking materials would be returned to the facility staff upon completion of smoking.

The LPN reported if a resident was admitted with an antibiotic, she was not checking the criteria to ensure they met the criteria for treatment. She was only checking criteria for in-house UTI's, GI, and respiratory infections. She was not checking criteria for in-house wounds, skin, teeth, etc. The LPN reported she was not aware McGeer had other criteria's, and she was not aware she had to make sure hospital admission met criteria for antibiotic treatments. LPN #46 reported she has not had time to complete the infection control log or ensure antibiotics were appropriate for the months of August and September 2021 because she had been helping on the floor. Review of the facility policy titled Antibiotics Stewardship Plan, dated 04/20/17, revealed the facility would participate in the antibiotic stewardship program to protect residents and reduce the threat of antibiotic resistance in this setting and as part of an overall national initiative. The infection preventionist will have training, dedicated time, and resources to collect and analyze infection surveillance date to monitor and support the antibiotic stewardship activities. The facility would utilize the McGeer's criteria for monitoring, and reporting infections for surveillance and treatment. The Infection Preventionist (IP) nurse will follow, track, and monitor residents on antibiotic therapy. The IP nurse would ensure timely and appropriate ordering of antibiotic, review culture date, and developing antibiotic monitoring and infection management guidance.
