to receiving treatment and supports for daily living safely.
Based on resident and staff interviews, observations, and review of the facility policy, the facility did not
maintain a safe and sanitary living environment for the residents who utilized the common area
refrigerators. This had the potential to affect all residents in the facility except for the 22 residents residing
on the memory care unit. The facility census was 126.
Findings include:
Interview on 06/10/24 at 10:46 A.M. with Resident #113 stated he attempted to use the resident refrigerator
for a personal food item. He stated there was no room in it and there were flies and gnats in it, and it was
not clean. He stated it was the refrigerator in the activities area located on the 200 Hall.

no temperature log and a sign was posted on the front of it stating it was a resident refrigerator and to date
all items. Inside the refrigerator, there was a spilled drink on the ground, it was full of undated food from
various restaurants and grocery bags with mold-like substance on the food items, and had gnats and flies
coming out it. The freezer also contained several food items not dated and it was not clean.
Interview on 06/10/24 at 11:04 A.M. with Activities Assistant #301 stated she was not sure who takes care
of the refrigerator.

Administrator revealed he thought activities cares for the refrigerator and verified there was no temperature
log, there were flies, gnats, a spilled drink, and undated old food/moldy food items. The Administrator
verified the freezer had food items undated and both the refrigerator and freezer were in unsanitary
conditions. The Administrator verified residents use the 200 hall refrigerator as well as another one located
on the 100 hall.
Observation on 06/10/24 at 11:23 A.M. of the 100 hall refrigerator revealed there was no temperature log
and one opened item of hotdogs that was not dated. The freezer contained several items not dated.
Observation and interview on 06/10/24 at 11:26 A.M. with LPN #533 of the 100 hall refrigerator verified
there was no temperature log and the undated/opened hotdogs with the several undated freezer items. LPN
#533 stated they try to keep a temperature log, but the residents remove it and verified no temperature logs
can be produced for the past year.
Review of the facility policy titled Refrigerators and Freezers revised December 2014 revealed refrigerators
and freezers will be kept clean, free of debris, and mopped with sanitizing solution on scheduled bases and
more often as necessary. Monthly tracking sheets for all refrigerators and freezers will be posted to record

#91 never refuses her medications. LPN #502 reported she sometimes checked Resident #91's blood
pressure and heart rate prior to medication administration but stated she does not record this anywhere in
the medical record at the time of medication administration.
An interview on 06/13/24 at 9:09 A.M. with the Director of Nursing (DON) verified Resident #91's record
contained no evidence of blood pressure and heart rate monitoring prior to metoprolol administration. The
DON verified Resident #91's blood pressure and heart rate should be checked prior to administration as the
order provided physician-ordered parameters of when to hold the medication.
Review of the policy Administering Medications, revised April 2019, revealed medications are administered
in a safe and timely manner, and as prescribed. The policy additionally identified medications are
administered in accordance with prescriber orders.
Based on medical record review, staff interview, and facility policy review, the facility failed to ensure
residents were free from unnecessary medication use. This affected four (Residents #10, #67, #83, and
#91) of five residents reviewed for medication administration. The census was 126.
Findings include:
1. Review of Resident #10's medical record revealed the resident was admitted to the facility on [DATE]. Her
diagnoses included fracture of upper end of left tibia and right tibia, end stage renal disease, peripheral
vascular disease, and osteoarthritis. Review of the Minimum Data Set (MDS) assessment, dated 04/22/24,
revealed Resident #10 was cognitively intact.
Review of Resident #10's physician orders, dated 05/20/24 to 06/13/24, revealed she had orders for the
following as needed pain medications: Oxycodone five milligrams (mg) every four hours as needed for pain
and acetaminophen 500 mg every six hours as needed for pain. The physician orders did not have
parameters in place for the as needed pain medications.
Review of Resident #10's medication administration records (MAR), dated 05/01/24 to 06/13/24, revealed
acetaminophen was administered one time on 05/01/24 for a pain level of three, and Oxycodone was
administered 24 total times, with 13 of the 24 doses (05/01/24, 05/02/24, 05/23/24, 05/25/24, 05/26/24,
05/27/24 (three doses), 05/30/24, 06/04/24 (two doses), 06/05/24, and 06/10/24) being administered at a
pain level of five or below.
Interview with Director of Nursing (DON) on 06/13/24 at 7:45 A.M. confirmed there should be parameters in
place for as needed pain medications. The nurses should have had directions on what pain levels each
medication should have, to be administered. She confirmed Resident #10 as needed pain medications did
not currently have parameters in place.
Interview with Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) #487 and LPN #409 on 06/13/24 at 8:14 A.M. and 10:00
A.M. confirmed as needed pain medications should have parameters. They stated if there were no
parameters for a pain medication, they will take a resident's pain level, and then ask them what pain
medication they would want (if the resident is cognitively intact). If the resident is not cognitively intact, they
will use non-verbal gestures and cues to determine the resident's pain level, and then provide the as
needed pain acetaminophen for pain level five or below, and Oxycodone for pain level six and above.

**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
medical record review, staff interview, review of the facility's infection control log, and facility policy review,
the facility failed to provide adequate justification and monitoring regarding the use of an antibiotic. This
affected one (Resident #38) of five residents reviewed for medications. The facility census was 126.
Residents Affected - Few
Findings include:
Medical record review revealed Resident #38 was admitted to the facility on [DATE]. Diagnoses included
chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and acute and chronic respiratory failure. Review of the Minimum
Data Set (MDS) assessment, dated 03/06/24, revealed Resident #38 was cognitively intact.
Review of Resident #38's physician orders, dated 12/07/23, revealed the resident was prescribed and
administered Azithromycin (antibiotic) 500 milligrams (mg) every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday for
prophylactic.
There was no evidence of monitoring the effectiveness of the antibiotic and no evidence of justification for
the use of the antibiotic.
Review of the facility's Infection Control logs, dated December 2023 to May 2024, revealed Resident #38
usage of Azithromycin was never included on any of the logs.
Interview with Director of Nursing (DON) and Regional Nurse Consultant (RNC) #669 on 06/13/24 at 11:33
A.M. and 1:15 P.M. confirmed they were not doing any monitoring and/or testing to determine the
effectiveness or need for Resident #38 Azithromycin. RNC #669 stated she spoke with the physician and he
does not do any monitoring for long term/extended use of antibiotics for chronic diagnoses. RNC #669
stated if they were to do monitoring, they would monitor residents for Clostridioides difficile (CDiff), which
would have symptoms such as abdominal pain. The DON and RNC #669 confirmed that all antibiotics that
are prescribed, are documented on the monthly infection control logs as part of the antibiotic stewardship
program and monitoring.
