Some packages were opened with briefs scattered randomly about the space on the floor and on top of the unopened packages creating a disorderly, and uncomfortable living space for Resident #35. Interview with Resident #35 on 11/04/24 at 9:52 A.M. confirmed that she didn't like her bathroom being used for storage of her personal incontinence briefs because the bathroom isn't a closet. I've asked them several times to put them in my closet. Resident #35 confirmed that she felt the space was disorderly and uncomfortable due to the briefs being scattered about the bathroom. Interview with Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA) #157 on 11/06/24 at 10:07 AM confirmed that Resident #35 had 11 bags of incontinence briefs stacked and stored in her bathroom, with some briefs scattered randomly about the space on the floor and on top of the unopened packages. CNA #157 stated that staff keep the briefs in the resident's bathrooms for easy access, unless they have a closet large enough to store them. CNA #157 stated that Resident #35 had a small closet, so the briefs were stored in her bathroom.

Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm **NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on observation, resident and staff interview, and record review, the facility failed to document ongoing assessments to evaluate the need for the use of physical restraints. This affected two residents (#28 and #300) of eight residents reviewed for the use of restraints. The facility census was 45. Residents Affected - Few Findings include: 1. Resident #28 had an admission date of 11/27/19 with diagnoses including major depressive disorder, cardiac arrhythmia, hypertension, overactive bladder, gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), diverticulosis, cognitive communication deficit, and dementia. Review of the care plan dated 11/09/22 for Resident #28 on 11/07/24 at 12:53 P.M. revealed that Resident #28 was a high risk for fall, and had an intervention listed to place a personal alarm to wheelchair and recliner every shift. Review of the medical record for Resident #28 on 11/07/24 at 11:02 A.M. revealed no initial assessment, nor ongoing assessments for the use of alarm devices and/or restraints. Review of the medical record for Resident #28 on 11/07/24 at 12:53 P.M. revealed a progress note entry dated 09/17/24 at 10:13 A.M., Licensed Dietician (LD) #180 documented that on 9/16/24, LD #180 heard Resident #28's chair alarm sounding.

Observation on 11/05/24 at 1:16 P.M. revealed Resident #28 in her room seated in the recliner with non-slip material and a chair alarm visible and in place. Interview with Resident #28 on 11/05/24 at 1:16 P.M. confirmed Resident #28 was aware of the chair alarm, and felt restricted with her voluntary body movement because the alarm would make a loud, audible signal to alert the staff. Resident #28 stated that she wouldn't stand, because if she stood up, the alarm would make a very loud sound that you can hear in the front of the building and they all come running in here! Resident #28 stated that she can still walk, but the office and the nurses won't allow her to walk by herself, or get up by herself so she doesn't fall. Interview with the Director of Nursing (DON) on 11/05/24 at 4:09 P.M. confirmed that the facility does not complete restraint assessments for alarms, because they aren't considered to be restraints. The DON stated that there are physician's orders for the alarms and the nurses check to ensure that they are in place. The DON confirmed the alarms should be used to notify staff of the resident falling, but should not be used to prevent a resident from getting up. 2.

Interventions include providing and serving supplements as ordered: 8 ounces of Glucerna three times a day with meals. Review of Mini Nutritional Assessment completed 10/08/24 revealed Resident #25 had a moderate decrease in food intake, is bed/chair bound, had mild dementia, and a basal metabolic rate of 31 (overweight). These factors placed Resident #25 at a high risk for malnutrition. Interview on 11/06/24 at 11:40 A.M. with Registered Nurse #117 confirmed Resident #25 received Glucerna supplements. She was not responsible for administering the supplement, as dietary staff provided it during meal tray pass. She confirmed she has no way to verify whether the resident actually received the supplement or how much was consumed. The nurse noted that dietary staff documents the amount of food the resident eats, but the amount of the supplement consumed was not recorded. The nurse explained on some days, Resident #25 drinks all of the supplement, while on other days, the resident may drink half or none. Interview on 11/07/24 at 8:57 A.M. with the Director of Nursing (DON) and Assistant Director of Nursing (ADON) #115 revealed that intakes, specifically the amount of Glucerna consumed, are not available in the electronic medical record.

Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Based on observation, staff interview, and record review, the facility failed to remove, inactivate, or destroy pathogenic organisms on the surface of a multi-use device (glucometer) to the point where it was rendered safe for handling and re-use. This had the potential to affect three residents (#9, #297, #25) receiving glucometer checks on the Skilled Unit. The census was 45. Residents Affected - Few Findings include: Observation on 11/06/24 at 11:46 A.M. of Registered Nurse (RN) #117 completing a finger stick blood glucose stick (FSBS) on Resident #297 revealed prior to going into the resident room, RN #117 swiped the top of the glucometer with a sani wipe, and then entered Resident #297's room, placed the glucometer on the over bed table without placing a barrier on the table, performed the FSBS check, exited the room after performing hand hygiene and then placed the glucometer on top of the medication cart without the use of a barrier. RN #117 then documented the FSBS in the electronic health record and placed the glucometer in the top drawer of the medication cart without cleansing or sanitizing the glucometer. Interview with RN #117 after she placed the glucometer in the medication cart confirmed there was one glucometer used for the three residents on the skilled unit who required FSBS checks. RN #117 verified she had completed the FSBS procedure. When asked if she sanitized the glucometer prior to placing it back in the medication cart she verified she had not. Observation of the sani-wipe container with the RN at this time also confirmed the manufacturer's direction for dry time on the sani-wipe used to swipe the top of the glucometer prior to the procedure required a two-minute dry time. The nurse confirmed the glucometer was just swiped and did not have the two minute dry time as recommended by the manufacture. Review of the facility's policy titled Glucometer Policy and Procedure, undated, on 11/06/24 at 2:12 P.M. revealed that the policy of the facility is to prevent the spread of bloodborne pathogens. The policy listed recommendations (guidance) for cleaning and decontamination of glucometers that may be contaminated with blood and body fluids. The recommendations included to clean and disinfect glucometers if they must be reused between patients, disinfect the exterior surfaces of the glucometer after each use (even if there is no visible blood or soil) following the manufacturer's directions.

ADON #115 explained that, despite not meeting the criteria, there are constant difficulties in obtaining lab results from the hospital once residents admit to the facility. She confirmed that she did not have the necessary lab results for Resident #101 to confirm whether the antibiotic usage was appropriate nor documentation supporting these records were requested. Furthermore, the medical record did not indicate physical signs or resident complaints consistent with a urinary tract infection, such as dysuria, fever, or increased urinary frequency. ADON #115 stated that she did not see the need to discontinue the antibiotics ordered by the hospital, given that the UTI diagnosis was made during hospitalization and antibiotic treatment had already been initiated. 2.

Review of the care plan dated 09/09/24 for Resident #33 revealed the resident's risk for septicemia will be minimized/prevented via prompt recognition and treatment of symptoms of UTI with interventions including monitoring/document for signs and symptoms of UTI. Review of the medical record revealed no evidence of a urine culture to support a diagnosis of a UTI prior to the start of Keflex or the extension of Cefepime. Interview on 11/06/24 at 9:22 A.M. with LPN #129, confirmed when a UTI is suspected after a resident has signs and symptoms of a UTI they will notify the doctor to let them know what symptoms they are seeing. The physician will order a urine analysis and await the results and notify the responsible party of the order. Once the order is received, the physician will prescribe an antibiotic based on the results of the culture and notify the responsible party of the medication. Interview on 11/06/24 at 9:30 A.M. with director of nursing (DON), confirmed the process for UTI's is to wait for a urine analysis result prior to administering any medications directed towards a UTI. DON confirmed the physician was waiting for the results from the urine culture and the physician started Resident #33 on Keflex. DON stated once the culture came back it appeared to be something different, so they switched him to Cipro. DON stated they switched him to Cefepime because Cipro was causing more confusion. The urine analysis stat request was sent on 11/1/24. DON reported they contacted the lab on 11/04/24 but the culture was still not available. Review of the revised McGeer criteria for infection surveillance checklist revealed that a UTI without indwelling catheter requires both signs and symptoms and microbiologic criteria prior to administering antibiotics.
