Observation of his right ankle at the time of the interview revealed the resident was wearing a Wander Guard. During an interview and observation on 09/21/23 at 4:14 P.M. with the DON revealed an investigation had been initiated into how Resident # 31 got outside independently. It was believed Resident # 31 had gone out the back gate of the secured smoking courtyard and propelled himself around the front of the facility where he was found. Observations with the DON revealed there was a keypad on the back gate in the courtyard. The DON pushed on the gate for 15 seconds. The gate started alarming when the gate was pushed on. After 15 seconds, the gate released, and the alarm was no longer able to be heard. The DON stated she would have to get the Administrator to reset the gate as the gate did not automatically secure again once it was opened. Interview on 09/21/23 at 4:19 P.M. with the Administrator revealed if a resident went out the courtyard gate the alarm would continue to sound at the nursing station and front desk until the system was reset by staff. The only way to secure the gate after it was opened was to flip a switch from inside the facility. The Administrator stated there were a couple of residents who would open the gate by pushing on it and walk around the facility. At that time the facility assumed that was how Resident #31 exited but the facility was continuing to investigate.

He stated Resident #31 was laying on the ground with his wheelchair tipped over. Resident #49 stated he noticed staff looking for Resident #31 and wanted to help staff. The last time Resident #49 saw Resident #31 the night of 09/20/23 was 11:00 P.M. in the recreation room. Observation on 09/21/23 at 4:41 P.M. with the Administrator verified Resident #31 had got out the back courtyard gate in his wheelchair and traveled a path to the front of the facility where there were areas of uneven pavement, and limited lighting in the dark. The Administrator pointed to the grassy area near the left side of the parking lot in the row closest to the nursing facility where he believed Resident #31 was found in the grass after falling out of his wheelchair. Observation was conducted with the Administrator on 09/25/23 at 9:22 A.M. of the recorded video surveillance from the night of 09/20/23. It was observed Resident # 45 pushed Resident #31 out the back door in his wheelchair to the smoking courtyard on 09/20/23 at 11:58 P.M. Resident #31 went out of camera range so it was not able to be determined by the video what time Resident #31 left the courtyard. It was observed on the surveillance video staff were in the courtyard at 2:03 A.M. looking around. Interview on 09/25/23 at 10:42 A.M. with Resident #45 stated Resident #31 was jammed in the door leading out into the courtyard on the night of 09/20/23 so she pushed him out the door to help him. Resident #45 verified Resident #31 did not come back into the facility with her. Interview and with Maintenance Director (MD) #718 on 09/25/23 at 10:47 A.M. revealed the gate through which Resident #31 left the courtyard on 09/21/23 can become ajar from a heavy wind or by a person pushing on it for 15 seconds. He stated the alarm to this gate was not sounding the morning of 09/21/23 when he reported to work so he assumed someone silenced the alarm and left the gate open. He stated anytime the alarm sounded staff were to address the alarm and reset it. MD #718 explained once the back gate was open, the only way to secure/lock it up again would be for someone to walk back into the facility, go into a maintenance room, use keys to open a box which had a reset switch and flip the switch to reset the lock on the gate. MD #718 said the gate opened with a 15 second egress in case of a fire or there was a code box next to the gate where a person could punch in the code and open the gate. MD #718 verified the facility was a secured facility, so the residents did not have the codes to get out of the facility unless assisted by staff. MD #718 expressed the gait was working as it should, however, if the gate is left open because staff do not reset the switch, then the building is no longer secured. MD #718 added the doors to get out into the smoking courtyard are always open, so anyone could walk out into the courtyard and leave the courtyard if the gate was not locked. Observation on 09/26/23 at 11:00 A.M. with MD #718 of the secured gate in the back courtyard revealed the gate was locked and there was a keypad to the left side which could open the gate using a code or pushing on the gate for 15 seconds. MD #718 pushed on the back gate for 15 seconds and the gate opened with an alarming sound. MD #718 said there have been several times he has come to work within the last three months and did rounds between 7:00 A.M. and 8:00 A.M. and found the gate open which led him to believe it had been left open all night. MD #718 stated all nursing staff have a key to the maintenance room to reset the back gate alarm. DM #718 stated the gate will not relock unless he comes in and resets the back gate and stated if the back gate is not reset, the gate will stay open all night. MD #718 took the surveyor to the maintenance room, opened a wall mounted box with a key and pointed to the switch that needed to be physically reset to relock the gate.

F 0693 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Few Ensure that feeding tubes are not used unless there is a medical reason and the resident agrees; and provide appropriate care for a resident with a feeding tube. Based on policy review, interview, review of an article from the American Journal of Health-System Pharmacy, and observation, the facility failed to ensure staff appropriately flushed a feeding tube during medication administration . This effected one (Resident #22) of one resident reviewed for medication administration via feeding tube. Findings include: On 09/20/23 between 11:06 A.M. and 11:15 A.M., Licensed Practical Nurse #732 was observed administering medication to Resident #22 via a feeding tube. Among the medications administered were famotidine (a gastric acid secretion reducer), allopurinol (helps prevent increase or decreases uric acid levels), provera (hormone), sertraline (antidepressant), cimetidine (gastric acid secretion reducer) and cod liver oil (liquid). All the pills were crushed. Approximately five milliliters (ml) of water were added to the cups with the medications before they were emptied into the feeding tube. No flushes with water were conducted between the medications. On 09/20/23 at 11:29 A.M., LPN #732 verified although she flushed the feeding tube before she began and after she finished administering medications, she did not flush the feeding tube between medications. Review of the facility's policy, Medication Administered by Enteral Tube (implementation date not designated) revealed mixing medications might result in a drug interaction that may include occlusion of the tube and did not comply with medication administration practices of administering medication separately. Administer medication one at a time and follow with a minimum of 15 ml of water between medications unless other directed to do so which prevents clogging of the tube with drug to drug interactions. Review of a Medscape article from the American Journal of Health-System Pharmacy titled Medication Administration through Enteral Feeding Tubes revealed when multiple medications are scheduled for administration at the same time, each should be given separately, and the feeding tube should be irrigated with 5-10 ml of water between each medication. When delivering any medication through an enteral access device, the appropriate flushing technique is essential to reduce the risk of tube occlusion and to maintain patency.

The physical exam revealed pain in the right knee with movement and positive crepitus (a cracking or popping sound) of the knee. The plan was to consult orthopedics to evaluate for knee replacement and to start Percocet for pain. Record review revealed a physician order, dated 08/11/23 for Percocet (Oxycodone with Acetaminophen) 5-325 mg one tablet by mouth every eight hours as needed for pain. Review of a 09/12/23 physician progress note, authored by Physician #850, revealed Resident #45 was complaining of continued pain in the knees but was improving with pain meds. The resident was having difficulty walking and there was pain in the right knee with movement. Review of the nursing progress notes between 09/13/23 and 09/27/23 revealed the notes did not contain any assessment of Resident #45's pain, request for pain medication and use of non-pharmacological interventions for pain management during this time period. Review of the controlled drug administration record for Resident #45 revealed a script for 26 tablets of Percocet was filled on 08/31/23, the last tablet was signed out on 09/17/23 at 9:00 A.M, and a new script for 30 tablets Percocet written and filled on 09/19/23. Review of the pain level vital section documentation of the medical record for 09/17/23 revealed no pain assessments were completed on 09/17/23. There was no documentation by nursing to reflect why the Percocet ran out on 09/17/23, whether or not the as-needed Acetaminophen was offered while waiting for the Percocet to be re-filled until 09/19/23 nor any documentation to reflect if the nurses attempted to get a Percocet from the facility starter box (which was a secured medication containment system at the facility where various medications including narcotics supplied from the pharmacy could be pulled until the medications arrived from the pharmacy).

Based on observation , record review, review of medication information, policy review and interview the facility failed to store medication appropriately. Improper storage was identified on two (Unit II medication cart and Unit I medication room) of three storage units observed. This affected four residents, Resident #12, #24, #57, and #261 of 66 residents residing in the facility. Findings include: 1. On 09/20/23 between 11:30 A.M. and 11:38 A.M., Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) #732 was observed monitoring Resident #24's blood glucose level and administering insulin. While preparing to administer Resident #24's Humalog via an opened insulin pen, it was noted there was no date indicating when the insulin pen was opened. The label indicated the Humalog pen was delivered 08/22/23. This was verified by LPN #732 at the time of observation. Review of the Medscape website revealed opened Humalog pens could be stored at room temperature up to 28 days. 2. Observations of the 100 hall (Unit I) medication room with LPN #725 on 09/26/23 at 10:38 A.M. revealed there were two refrigerators for storage of medications. One of the refrigerators did not contain a thermometer to monitor the temperature under which the medications were stored and there was no evidence of a temperature log. Medications stored in the refrigerator included intravenous Daptomycin (antibiotic) for Resident #261 and Arformoterol tartrate inhalation solution (bronchodilator) for Resident #12. The lack of a thermometer, lack of evidence of temperature monitoring and presence of the medications was verified by LPN #725 at the time of the observation.
