Provide timely notification to the resident, and if applicable to the resident representative and ombudsman,
before transfer or discharge, including appeal rights.
Based on clinical record review and staff interview, it was determined that the facility failed to notify the
representative of the Office of the State Long-Term Care Ombudsman about a resident transfer, for one of
three residents reviewed for hospitalizations (Resident 37) and failed to provide an accurate written notice
of transfer to a resident's responsible party for one of three residents reviewed for hospitalizations
(Resident 8).
Findings include:
Clinical record review for Resident 37 revealed a nursing note dated April 20, 2023, at 3:51 PM revealed
the resident was sent to the hospital due to the inability to maintain blood sugar stability.
Nursing documentation dated April 25, 2023, at 2:29 PM revealed that Resident 37 had been admitted to
the hospital with a diagnosis of metabolic encephalopathy (a condition where brain function is altered due
to a disease or abnormality of the body) due to hypoglycemia (low blood sugar).
Further clinical record review for Resident 37 revealed no evidence that the Office of the State Long-Term
Care Ombudsman was notified as required about the transfer to the hospital.
An interview with the Director of Nursing on June 30, 2023, at 10:40 AM confirmed that the Office of the
State Long-Term Care Ombudsman was not listed as being notified of Resident 37's transfer.
Clinical record review for Resident 8 revealed nursing documentation dated May 15, 2023, at 6:15 AM that
staff transferred Resident 8 to the emergency room for testing due to a change in condition.
Nursing documentation dated May 15, 2023, at 7:41 PM revealed that Resident 8 was admitted to the
hospital due to a right frontal lobe infarct (CVA, stroke, brain injury due to a bleed or blood clot).
Review of a Notice of Transfer or discharge date d May 15, 2023, addressed to Resident 8's son, indicated
that the notice did not include the location to which Resident 8 was transferred. Staff documented the
facility's name, not the hospital destination, on the form.
An interview with the Nursing Home Administrator on June 30, 2023, at 10:45 AM confirmed the above
findings for Resident 8.

Notify the resident or the resident’s representative in writing how long the nursing home will hold the
resident’s bed in cases of transfer to a hospital or therapeutic leave.
Based on clinical record review and staff interview, it was determined that the facility failed to provide an
accurate written notice of the facility's bed-hold policy to the resident and the resident's responsible party
for one of three residents reviewed for hospitalization concerns (Resident 8).
Findings include:
Clinical record review for Resident 8 revealed nursing documentation dated May 15, 2023, at 6:15 AM that
staff transferred Resident 8 to the emergency room for testing due to a change in condition.
Nursing documentation dated May 15, 2023, at 7:41 PM revealed that Resident 8 was admitted to the
hospital due to a right frontal lobe infarct (CVA, stroke, brain injury due to a bleed or blood clot).
Review of Resident 8's payment sources while at the facility revealed that the facility admitted her on May
10, 2023, following a motor vehicle accident; and that the payment source for her stay was an automobile
insurance plan. The Census Payment Sources documentation indicated that the facility stopped billing on
May 15, 2023, and resumed billing to the automobile insurance plan on May 18, 2023 (Resident 8's
readmission date to the facility).
Review of a Bed-Hold Notification form for Resident 8 revealed that the purpose of the notification was to
inform residents and/or their representatives of rights regarding the resident's stay in the facility when the
resident must be hospitalized . The form noted that each payer/insurance such as Medicare, Medical
Assistance (Medicaid), Security Blue, VA (Veterans Administration), or private pay had established policies
regarding bed-holds specifying the number of bed-hold days allowed and the cost to hold the bed during
that time. The form stipulated that, Information on each of these payers and their bed-hold policy
information is listed .The option below that is specific to you and your payment source at this time has been
checked.
The form included a checkmark for Pennsylvania Medical Assistance (Medicaid) that indicated that
Resident 8's bed would be held for 15 consecutive days at no cost to her while hospitalized because of
Pennsylvania Medical Assistance allowances. The form indicated that Resident 8 signed and dated this
form on May 15, 2023.
Interview with Employee 4 (business office manager) on June 29, 2023, at 4:05 PM confirmed that
Pennsylvania Medicaid was not Resident 8's payer source on May 15, 2023, and that the facility did not
consider Resident 8 on a bed-hold status when she was transferred to the emergency room on May 15,
2023. The interview confirmed that the facility's billing discharged Resident 8 on May 15, 2023, and
re-admitted her following her hospitalization.
An interview with the Nursing Home Administrator on June 30, 2023, at 10:45 AM confirmed the above
findings for Resident 8.

**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
clinical record review and resident and staff interview, it was determined that the facility failed to assist a
dependent resident with bathing assistance consistent with her preferences for one of three residents
reviewed for concerns with activities of daily living (Resident 89).
Residents Affected - Few
Findings include:
Interview with Resident 89 on June 27, 2023, at 2:12 PM revealed that staff told her that she could not
receive showers because she had an indwelling Foley catheter (flexible tubing inserted through the urethra
to the bladder to drain urine). Resident 89 confirmed that she would like a shower as her bathing
preference.
Clinical record review of a quarterly MDS (Minimum Data Set, an assessment tool completed at specific
intervals to determine resident care needs) assessment dated [DATE], revealed that staff assessed
Resident 89 as dependent on the physical assistance of one staff for bathing. A significant change MDS
assessment dated [DATE], assessed Resident 89 as totally dependent on the physical assistance of two
staff for bathing.
Bathing records dated February and March 2023 indicated that Resident 89 received showers on February
5, 12, 19, 26, 2023 and March 5, 12, 19, 26, 2023. Bathing records dated April, May, and June 2023,
indicated that Resident 89 was provided only assistance with a bed bath.
Nursing documentation dated March 20, 2023, at 1:44 PM revealed that staff inserted a Foley catheter
because of Resident 89's inability to void her urine effectively.
A physician's order discontinued the indwelling Foley catheter on March 24, 2023.
Nursing documentation dated March 28, 2023, at 12:11 PM revealed that Resident 89 had decreased
urinary output, that staff notified a physician of Resident 89's change in condition, and that new physician
orders included the insertion of a Foley catheter.
Resident 89's clinical record confirmed the provision of showers before she utilized a Foley catheter and
the provision of bed baths when she had a Foley catheter.
The surveyor reviewed the above findings for Resident 89 during interviews with the Nursing Home
Administrator and the Director of Nursing on June 28, 2023, at 2:00 PM, and June 29, 2023, at 2:00 PM.

**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
review of select facility policies and procedures, clinical record review, and resident and staff interview, it
was determined that the facility failed to assess and implement interventions regarding weight loss for two
of five residents reviewed (Residents 99 and 8).
Residents Affected - Few
Findings include:
The policy entitled Weight Assessment and Intervention last reviewed March 16, 2023, noted that the
interdisciplinary team will strive to prevent, monitor, and intervene for undesirable weight loss for residents.
The assessment information will be analyzed by the multidisciplinary team and conclusions made
regarding: the resident's target weight, approximate nutrient needs such as calorie and protein, and
whether and to what extent weight stabilization or improvement can be anticipated. The policy indicated that
any weight change of five percent or more since the last weight assessment will be addressed by the
Dietitian. There was no guidance in the policy as to what time frame the Dietitian would address a weight
loss. The policy also did not provide guidance regarding the expected time frame that facility staff would
notify a resident's physician and responsible party of a significant or severe weight change. The policy
further indicated that the threshold for significant unplanned and undesired weight loss will be based on the
following criteria:
One month, five percent weight loss is significant, greater than five percent is severe
Three months, 7.5 percent weight loss is significant, greater than 7.5 is severe
Six months, 10 percent weight loss is significant, greater than 10 percent is severe
Review of Resident 99's clinical record revealed that nursing staff weighed him on December 1, 2022, at
202.6 pounds. Nursing staff weighed him on June 3, 2023, at 181 pounds, which would be a 10.66 percent
severe weight loss in six months. There was no documented evidence in Resident 99's clinical record to
indicate that the facility identified his severe weight loss, completed a nutritional assessment, made
changes to his plan of care for nutrition, or notified the dietitian or his physician.
Interview with the Administrator and Employee 6, registered dietitian, on June 30, 2023, at 9:43 AM
confirmed the above findings for Resident 99.
Observation of Resident 8 on June 27, 2023, at 1:14 PM during the lunch meal, revealed she was in bed
with her meal tray on her overbed table in front of her; however, she was not eating. Interview with Resident
8 on the date and time of the observation indicated that her stomach would not allow her to eat. Resident 8
stated, .it's not easy when you don't feel like it, it's not that easy.
Clinical record review for Resident 8 revealed the facility admitted her on May 10, 2023, she was
hospitalized from [DATE] to 18, 2023, and readmitted to the facility on [DATE].
Nursing documentation dated May 11, 2023, at 2:18 PM revealed that a weight assessment for the first two
days after Resident 8's admission was not completed because Resident 8 did not want to get out of bed.

There was no indication that staff made another attempt to weigh Resident 8 until May 14, 2023.
Level of Harm - Minimal harm

Review of weight assessments available in Resident 8's medical record revealed the following findings:
May 14, 2023, at 9:20 AM, 162.0 pounds
Residents Affected - Few
May 18, 2023, at 4:18 PM, 166.1 pounds
May 29, 2023, at 10:22 AM, 143.8 pounds (a 22.3-pound, 13.42 percent severe loss in 11 days)
June 2, 2023, at 12:26 PM, 137.4 pounds (a 6.4-pound, 4.45 percent continued loss in the four days since
the previous weight assessment)
June 5, 2023, at 1:20 PM, 136.8 pounds
June 12, 2023, at 2:11 PM, 137.0 pounds
Nursing documentation dated May 29, 2023, at 2:18 PM indicated that the registered nurse was informed of
Resident 8's weight loss. The writer noted that she completed an assessment for dehydration ( .Lips do not
appear dry. Normal skin turgor, no tenting. BP (blood pressure) elevated, but pt (patient) trends high
periodically, other VSS (vital signs stable). Foley patent, draining clear yellow urine. No complaints voiced
by pt.).
The above documentation did not include an assessment of any other nutritional parameters (e.g., meal
intake percentages, resident's need for assistance, resident preferences, or protein or caloric needs). The
documentation did not indicate notifications to the physician, dietitian, or Resident 8's responsible party.
The documentation did not indicate the initiation of any new interventions in response to the identified
22.3-pound, 13.42 percent, severe weight loss.
A physician's order originally written on May 18, 2023 (Resident 8's readmission to the facility), was
automatically implemented as scheduled on June 1, 2023, that decreased Resident 8's weight
assessments from weekly to monthly.
A physician's progress note dated June 2, 2023, at 8:38 PM included no reference to Resident 8's severe
weight loss. The practitioner noted that the resident reported a fair appetite, and that there were no
concerns voiced by nursing staff, Resident 8 was stable, and that there were no new orders on that date.
Nursing documentation by the Nursing Home Administrator on June 5, 2023, at 10:24 AM indicated that the
interdisciplinary team reviewed Resident 8's weight loss. The documentation included that Resident 8's,
intakes vary greatly .some meals she eats 50-75 percent of meals, other meals refused or eats very little
.MD (physician) notified of wt (weight) loss, per MD, new order for Ha1C (Hemoglobin A1c, HbA1c, blood

Progress note documentation dated June 7, 2023, at 4:57 PM was the first indication that a qualified dietary
professional (registered dietitian) assessed Resident 8's severe weight loss (to include protein and caloric
needs) since May 29, 2023, and the facility implemented nutritional dietary

Level of Harm - Minimal harm

Interview with the Nursing Home Administrator and the Director of Nursing on June 28, 2023, at 2:00 PM
indicated that the facility did not employ a dietitian at the time of Resident 8's finding of severe weight loss
on May 29, 2023. The interview indicated that a new dietitian started the first week of June 2023.
Residents Affected - Few
Interview with the Director of Nursing and the Nursing Home Administrator on June 29, 2023, at 2:00 PM
confirmed that the facility had no expectation that staff perform a re-weight assessment when a severe
change in weight assessments is identified to ensure the accuracy of the findings. The interview also
confirmed that the facility had not weighed Resident 8 since June 12, 2023, to monitor the ongoing
effectiveness of interventions implemented on June 5, 2023.
Interview with the Nursing Home Administrator and Employee 6 (registered dietitian) on June 30, 2023, at
9:54 AM confirmed that there was no assessment by a qualified dietary professional completed on
Resident 8 (to include caloric, protein, and fluid needs) and Resident 8 had no nutritional supplements
ordered for the nine days from May 29, 2023, to June 7, 2023, during which Resident 8 was identified to
have lost a total of 29.3 pounds (17.6 percent) from her weight assessment on May 18, 2023. The Nursing
Home Administrator stated that it would be her expectation that nursing staff assess a resident who is
identified to have a severe weight change; however, neither the Nursing Home Administrator nor Employee
6 would state what that assessment should include. The Nursing Home Administrator was also unable to
state the expectation for nursing staff to timely notify a resident's physician, responsible party, or the
dietitian in the event of an identified severe weight loss (e.g., within 24 hours or within one week). The
interview indicated that the facility's system is that the electronic weight documentation program will alert
the registered dietitian the next day of a significant weight loss. The interview confirmed that there was no
registered dietitian employed by the facility on May 29, 2023, to receive the alert for Resident 8. In the event
of the absence of a dietitian, the Nursing Home Administrator and the facility's administration would
address daily significant weight loss alerts during morning meeting; however, the Nursing Home
Administrator was unable to provide evidence that this occurred for Resident 8 after Monday, May 29,
2023's, weight until the following Monday on June 5, 2023.

Implement gradual dose reductions(GDR) and non-pharmacological interventions, unless contraindicated,
prior to initiating or instead of continuing psychotropic medication; and PRN orders for psychotropic
medications are only used when the medication is necessary and PRN use is limited.
Based on review of select facility policies and procedures, clinical record review, and staff interview, it was
determined that the facility failed to ensure a resident's medication regime was free from potentially
unnecessary medications for one of five residents reviewed for medication concerns (Resident 14).
Findings include:
The facility policy entitled, Psychotropic Medication Use, last reviewed without changes on March 16, 2023,
stipulated that residents who have not used psychotropic medications are not prescribed or given these
medications unless the medication is determined to be necessary to treat a specific condition that is
diagnosed and documented in the medical record. Consideration of the use of any psychotropic medication
is based on comprehensive review of the resident. This includes evaluation of the resident's signs and
symptoms to identify underlying causes. Residents on psychotropic medications receive gradual dose
reductions (coupled with non-pharmacological interventions) unless clinically contraindicated, to
discontinue these medications. When determining whether to initiate, modify, or discontinue medication
therapy, the interdisciplinary team conducts an evaluation of the resident. The evaluation will attempt to
clarify whether: other causes for symptoms (including symptoms that mimic a psychiatric disorder) have
been ruled out; signs and symptoms are clinically significant enough to warrant medication therapy; a
particular medication is clinically indicated to manage the symptoms or condition; and the actual or
intended benefit of the medication is understood by the resident/representative.
The National Institute of Mental Health defines psychosis as a collection of symptoms that affect the mind,
where there has been some loss of contact with reality. During an episode of psychosis, a person's
thoughts and perceptions are disrupted and they may have difficulty recognizing what is real and what is
not. People with psychosis typically experience delusions (false beliefs, for example, that people on
television are sending them special messages or that others are trying to hurt them) and hallucinations
(seeing or hearing things that others do not, such as hearing voices telling them to do something or
criticizing them). Other symptoms can include incoherent or nonsense speech and behavior that is
inappropriate for the situation.
Clinical record review for Resident 14 revealed a current medication regime that included the administration
of the antipsychotic Seroquel, 25 mg (milligrams) two times a day related to unspecified psychosis since
December 21, 2021.
Resident 14's medication regime also included:
Zoloft (antidepressant), 50 mg once daily for depressive disorders (active since February 11, 2023)
Cymbalta (antidepressant) 120 mg once daily for depressive disorders (active since October 9, 2021)
Trazodone (antidepressant) twice daily as 25 mg during the day and 50 mg in the evening for depressive
disorders (active since November 30, 2022)
Depakote (anticonvulsant sometimes used to treat mood disorders) which was increased from 125 mg

Level of Harm - Minimal harm
or potential for actual harm
Psychiatric documentation by a certified registered nurse practitioner (CRNP) dated November 12, 2021,
instructed staff to start Resident 14's Seroquel at 25 mg at hour of sleep. The documentation did not
include a diagnosis of psychosis. The documentation indicated that Resident 14 was agitated, restless,
anxious, angry, and constricted, but he was alert and oriented to person and place and that he was not a
danger to himself or others.
Residents Affected - Few
Psychiatric documentation dated December 17, 2021, indicated that Resident 14 stated that he missed his
dog and wife and that he presented with poor insight regarding memory issues and that he admitted to
feeling angry. Resident 14 remained alert and oriented to person and place. The CRNP instructed staff to
increase Resident 14's Seroquel to 25 mg twice daily.
Psychiatric documentation dated November 30, 2022, indicated Resident 14 was seen for psychiatric follow
up for a history of anxiety disorder, mood disorder, and depression. The history of his present illness listed
dementia. Resident 14 continued to have some anxiety but he felt mentally stable. Although Resident 14
reported feeling, .down at times due to his situation, he had a good appetite and was sleeping better.
Resident 14's mental exam was that he was well groomed, alert, cooperative, with clear speech,
appropriate mood, and without delusions or hallucinations. The practitioner's impression was that Resident
14 continued to have mild depression and anxiety symptoms but was overall stable. His mood irritability
was addressed by his Trazodone and Depakote. The plan noted to, continue Seroquel 25 mg PO (by
mouth) bid (twice daily) for dementia related behaviors.
A consultant pharmacist review on June 2, 2022, requested the physician consider reviewing Resident 14's
Seroquel and Trazodone medications for a possible gradual dose reduction (GDR) as within the first year a
psychotropic medication is initiated a gradual dose reduction must be attempted in two separate quarters
(with at least one month between attempts) unless contraindicated. After the first year a GDR must be
attempted annually unless clinically contraindicated. The physician declined to decrease or discontinue
either the Seroquel or the Trazodone medications on June 23, 2022, with the rationale, .as doing so would
most likely result in increased depression and behaviors.
The surveyor requested that the facility provide any evidence that Resident 14 exhibited target behavioral
symptoms of psychosis during an interview with the Nursing Home Administrator and the Director of
Nursing on June 29, 2023, at 2:00 PM.
Review of the tracking of Resident 14's socially inappropriate/abusive behaviors provided by the facility
dated December 2022 - June 28, 2023, revealed that he had zero episodes documented by staff.
Interview with Employee 7 (social services) and the Nursing Home Administrator on June 30, 2023, at 9:32
AM confirmed that there was no evidence of symptoms of psychosis (such as hallucinations or delusions)
when the Seroquel was started. Resident 14 was identified as exhibiting yelling, cursing, and that he was
angry. There was no evidence that the consultant pharmacist requested another GDR of the Seroquel
medication since June 2, 2022. There was no evidence that Resident 14 ever failed an attempt at a GDR of
the Seroquel medication since its initiation in November 2021. There was no evidence provided by the
facility that Resident 14 ever exhibited delusions or hallucinations that were symptoms of a psychosis
disorder.

rack.
A Robot Coupe food processor located on the cook's preparation table was observed with a large piece of
plastic broken off on the top of the base of the processor leaving a large hole to the interior of the base
where metal internal components could be seen. Dried food and debris were observed on the interior
components.
An anti-fatigue mat on the floor in front of the cooks table was significantly covered in dried food and debris.
