Ensure menus must meet the nutritional needs of residents, be prepared in advance, be followed, be
updated, be reviewed by dietician, and meet the needs of the resident.
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
observation, medical record review, staff interview, review of facility menu, and review of a dietary initiative,
the facility failed to follow the menus and recipes for meals. This had the potential to affect all residents with
the exception of Resident #8 who the facility identified as not eating anything my mouth. The facility census
was 52.

1. Review of the menu for 08/13/24 revealed residents were to receive tuna salad on croissant (one each),
half a cup of mixed vegetables, five to eight crackers and cheese, one orange push pop, and milk.

reported she did not have enough for the last plate, she took tuna salad from some of the other plates and
put it on the last plate. The resident's tuna salad portion varied from golf ball sized to a little bigger than a
golf ball. All seven (#11, #14, #26, #33, #102, #103, and #104) residents were served this meal.
Interview on 08/13/24 at the end of the 12:05 P.M. observation with STNA #172 revealed mixed berries
were given instead of mixed vegetables because the residents had received mixed vegetables the previous
night. She reported the meal called for croissants; however, the wrong croissants had been ordered so she
did crackers instead. STNA #172 verified she had not used any measurements to portion the amount of
tuna the residents received. STNA #172 reported she had not followed a recipe for tuna salad. There were
some recipes in a book in the kitchen; however, she reported they could search for a recipe online or make
it from memory if they knew how to make it. STNA #172 additionally verified that the residents did not
receive dessert, and stated they would be given to the residents later and it would not be push pops as
most residents did not like them.

soft pretzel with cheese, half a cup of green beans, half a cup of mixed berries, and milk.

Review of the medical record for Resident #102 revealed an admission date of 07/23/24 with diagnoses
including adult failure to thrive, hypertensive heart disease with heart failure, acute respiratory failure with
hypoxia, and restlessness and agitation.
Review of Resident #102's physician order dated 07/23/24 revealed an order for a regular diet with a soft
and bite sized texture.
Review of the lunch menu for 08/13/24 revealed residents on a soft and bite sized diet were to receive a
scoop of tuna salad, mixed vegetables, cheese slice, and orange push-pops.
Observation on 08/13/24 at 12:05 P.M. revealed State Tested Nurse Aide (STNA) #172 was preparing
resident meals. The meals included a small bowl of fruit, four to five slices of cheese, and five to eight
crackers. STNA #172 then used a regular spoon to scoop tuna salad on to each of the resident's plates. All
residents on a regular and soft and bite sized diet were served the same food. Resident #33 and Resident
#102 were observed receiving these meals.
Interview on 08/13/24 at the end of the 12:05 P.M. observation with STNA #172 verified residents on a soft
and bite sized diet received crackers.
Review of the International Dysphagia Diet Standardization Initiative (IDDSI) description of the soft and bite
sized diet (provided as facility policy) revealed food could be tested with the fork pressure diet to ensure it
was soft and bite sized. To make sure food was soft enough, press down on the fork until the thumbnail
blanches to white, then lift the fork to see that the food was completely squashed and did not regain shape.
Interview on 08/19/24 at 2:12 P.M. with Dietitian #311 stated nurse aides knew how to use the fork test to
determine what they could serve the residents.

Review of Resident #13's physician order dated 03/28/24 revealed an order for the supplement Ensure two
times a day.
Review of Resident #13's medication administration record (MAR) from 08/01/24 to 08/17/24 revealed the
resident consumed 100 percent (%) of his supplement twice on 08/01/24, 08/10/24, 08/11/24, 08/12/24,
08/13/24, 08/15/24, 08/16/23, and 08/17/24; and once on 08/09/24 and 08/14/24. Further review revealed
Resident #13 consumed 50% of his supplement twice on 08/02/24, 08/03/24, 08/05/24, 08/06/24, and
08/07/24; and once on 08/04/24 and 08/09/24. Resident #13 consumed 0% of his supplement once on

Level of Harm - Minimal harm
or potential for actual harm
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
medical record review, staff interview, and policy review, the facility failed to ensure residents receiving
antibiotics were properly assessed prior to implementation of antibiotic therapy and antibiotics appropriately
prescribed. This affected three (#4, #11, and #39) of five residents reviewed for urinary tract infections
(UTI). The facility census was 52.
Residents Affected - Few
Findings include:
Review of the medical record for Resident #11 revealed an admission date of 12/05/23 with diagnoses
including ulcerative colitis, hypertension, type two diabetes mellitus, neuromuscular dysfunction of the
bladder, dysuria, and chronic pain.
Review of Resident #11's quarterly Minimum Data Set (MDS) 3.0 assessment dated [DATE] revealed the
resident had moderately impaired cognition. Resident #11 had an indwelling catheter.
Review of Resident #11's plan of care dated 12/06/23 revealed Resident #11 had an indwelling catheter
related to neurogenic bladder. Removal was clinically contraindicated per the physician and the resident
was followed by urology. Per the urologist, the facility was not to treat UTIs unless symptomatic due to
constant infection related to catheter use. Interventions included indwelling catheter, positioning catheter
bag and tubing below level of the bladder, changing the catheter as needed, checking the tubing for kinks,
monitoring and documenting intake and output as per facility policy, monitoring for pain due to the catheter,
monitoring for discomfort on urination, monitoring for signs of a UTI, urology consultation as needed, and
urine output via urinary catheter.
Review of Resident #11's plan of care revised 04/26/24 revealed Resident #11 had a chronic UTI related to
catheter use. Interventions included giving antibiotic therapy as ordered, monitoring and reporting to the
physician as needed for signs of UTIs, and family and caregiver teaching.
Review of Resident #11's physician order dated 04/26/24 revealed an order for the antibiotic Bactrim DS
tablet 800-160 milligrams (mg) one tablet by mouth two times a day for UTI prophylaxis.
Review of Resident #11's progress notes from 4/20/24 to 4/30/24 revealed no notes related to beginning
her Bactrim.
Review of Resident #11's physician notes dated 04/30/24, 05/14/24, 05/28/24, and 06/04/24 revealed no
documentation related to prophylactic use of Bactrim.

revealed the resident began prophylactic Bactrim.
Review of Resident #11's CNP note dated 05/08/24 revealed no notes related to prophylactic use of
Bactrim.
Review of Resident #11 medical record from 04/26/24 to 08/14/24 revealed the 05/02/24 FNP note was the
only time her prophylactic use of Bactrim was addressed.

2. Review of the medical record for Resident #4 revealed an initial admission date of 11/16/17 with the
latest readmission of 02/26/24. Diagnoses including but not limited to bipolar disorder, morbid obesity,
hypertension, dementia with anxiety, peripheral vascular disease, polyarthritis, anxiety disorder, cataracts,
alcohol dependence with alcohol induced dementia, generalized muscle weakness, difficulty in walking,
mixed incontinence, hyperlipidemia, low back pain, sensorineural hearing loss, osteoarthritis, dermatitis,
and insomnia.
Residents Affected - Few
Review of the plan of care dated 11/27/18 revealed Resident #4 was at risk for urinary tract infections (UTI)
due to personal history of UTI. Interventions included assist with managing adult brief as needed, dip urine
as needed, encourage fluid intake, encourage routine peri-care and assist as needed, encourage voiding
for every two to three hours to decrease bacteria in the bladder, medications as ordered, monitor for
signs/symptoms of UTI, monitor elimination patterns and document negative findings, and provide
resident/caregiver/family teach as needed for good hygiene practices.
Review of Resident #4's progress note dated 02/15/24 at 6:10 P.M. revealed the facility received the results
of the urinalysis and culture and sensitivity (UA/C&S). Further revealed of the resident's progress notes
revealed no indication as why and when the UA/C&S was obtained.
Review of the UA/C&S results dated 02/17/24 revealed Resident #4 had greater than 100,000 colony
forming unit (CFU)/milliliter (ml) escherichia coli (E. coli) and a secondary colony of 10-15,000 CFU/mL
escherichia coli. Further review revealed the secondary colony of escherichia coli was resistive to the
prescribed antibiotic Bactrim double strength (DS).
Review of Resident #4's discontinued physician orders identified orders dated 02/15/24 for the antibiotic
Bactrim DS 800-160 milligrams (mg) by mouth twice daily for seven days for UTI and 02/22/25 Bactrim DS
800-160 milligrams (mg) by mouth twice daily for five days for UTI.
Review of the acute care hospital Discharge summary dated [DATE] revealed Resident #4 was diagnosed
with falls, syncope, acute kidney injury, and UTI. The summary documented the Bactrim DS may have
played a factor in the resident's high potassium level and the acute kidney injury. The Bactrim was
discontinued, UA/C&S was repeated and the resident was started on the antibiotic Cephalexin 250 mg
which was susceptible to both organisms on the C&S result dated 02/15/24.
Review of Resident #4's readmission note dated 02/26/24 at 5:30 P.M. revealed the resident was
readmitted to the facility following an acute care hospital stay for falls, syncope, acute kidney injury, and
UTI. The resident was ordered Cephalexin 250 mg by mouth four times a day for four days for UTI.
On 08/19/24 at 9:47 A.M., interview with Regional Nurse #300 verified another antibiotic would be more
appropriate to treat the UTI and was unaware of Family Nurse Practitioner (FNP) #313 was ordering
Bactrim DS for all UTI.
On 08/19/24 at 3:00 P.M., interview with FNP #313 revealed if a resident was symptomatic she started the
resident on Bactrim until the C&S came back. She said once it comes back she will change the antibiotic to
what the organism was sensitive to. FNP #313 revealed she, Probably never saw the results of the C&S (for
Resident #4), or she would have changed the antibiotic to one that was sensitive
