Interview with Resident #21 on 07/09/24 at 8:25 A.M. confirmed he has lost a significant amount of weight in the last six months and he didn't want to. Resident #21 stated he does not like the food in the facility, so he will buy his own food for the vast majority of his meals. Resident #21 stated he is not aware of any medical conditions as to why he would lose a significant amount of weight. Interview with Dietitian #122 on 07/10/24 at 2:30 P.M. stated she has only been at the facility for a little over a month and was getting to the point to do a deep research of all residents with significant weight loss, including Resident #21.

Dietician #122 stated she was not sure if the physician was notified of his significant weight losses since she was not the dietitian in previous months. Interview with Corporate Dietitian #123 on 07/10/24 at 2:45 P.M. and 07/11/24 at 9:18 A.M. revealed they had questions about the accuracy of the weights the last few months. On 05/01/24, they put new procedures in place to make sure the weights were accurate. Corporate Dietician #123 confirmed there was no documentation to support Resident #21's weight loss; they are not sure why he is losing so much weight. They would have to speak with the nursing staff about medical reasons why he was losing weight. Interview with Director of Nursing (DON) on 07/11/24 at 9:18 A.M., 9:32 A.M., and 11:10 A.M.

revealed she can not find a reason why Resident #21 has lost so much weight. The DON confirmed there is no documentation the physician was notified of the significant weight loss, but they have offered nutritional supplements, medications, and other interventions to stabilize his weight, and Resident #21 has declined them.

The DON confirmed Resident #21 is scheduled to be discharged to an assisted living in the next week. The DON confirmed Resident #21 has lost a significant amount of weight in the last six months, and there was no reasoning for it (based on documentation of meal intakes provided by direct care staff.)
