Honor the resident's right to request, refuse, and/or discontinue treatment, to participate in or refuse to
participate in experimental research, and to formulate an advance directive.
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
review of facility policy and clinical records, and staff interviews, it was determined that the facility failed to
comprehensively address the formulation of advance directives (legal instructions regarding your
preferences for medical care if you are unable to make decisions for yourself-to include information
provided oral and/or written instructions about future medical care in the event of becoming unable to
express medical wishes) for two of 24 residents reviewed (Residents R4 and R36).
Findings include:
A facility policy entitled, Advanced Directives dated [DATE], indicated the following:
-upon admission the resident and/or representative will be provided with written information concerning the
right to refuse or accept medical or surgical treatment and to formulate an Advanced Directive if he or she
chooses to do so.
- prior to or upon admission the Social Services Director or designee will inquire of the resident, his/her
family members and/or his or her legal representative about the existence of any written advanced
directives.
- the Social Services (or designee) will document in the medical record the offer to assist and the resident's
decision to accept or decline assistance.
- the resident's attending physician will clarify and present any relevant medical issues and decisions to the
resident or legal representative as the resident's condition changes to clarify and adhere to the resident's
wishes.
Resident R36's clinical record revealed an admission date of [DATE], with diagnoses that included
pervasive developmental disorder (developmental delay that affects social and communication skills),
unspecified psychosis (diagnosis used when there isn't enough information to diagnose a specific psychotic
disorder), difficulty speaking, and dementia with agitation. The clinical record also included a physician's
order dated [DATE], that identified Resident R36 as a Full Code (medical directive that indicates that a
patient wants to receive cardiopulmonary resuscitation [CPR] and all other medical treatment to save their
life if their heart and lungs stop working).
Further review of Resident R36's clinical record revealed that the facility failed to comprehensively address
the formulation of advance directives instructions regarding his/her preferences for medical care if he/she
was unable to make decisions.

an advance directive in Resident R36's clinical record.
During interviews on [DATE], at 11:35 a.m. RN Employee E1, Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) Employee
E4, and LPN Employee E3 confirmed that they would prioritize following the instructions on a POLST or
advance directive, and that the POLST should be in the resident's clinical record.

Provide appropriate care for a resident to maintain and/or improve range of motion (ROM), limited ROM
and/or mobility, unless a decline is for a medical reason.
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
review of facility policy and clinical records, observations, and staff interviews, it was determined that the
facility failed to ensure that a resident with limited range of motion received treatment and services to

Provide appropriate care for residents who are continent or incontinent of bowel/bladder, appropriate
catheter care, and appropriate care to prevent urinary tract infections.
Based on review of facility policies and clinical records, observations, and staff interviews, it was
determined that the facility failed to provide appropriate care regarding a urinary catheter (a tube inserted
into the bladder to drain urine into a bag) for three of five residents reviewed for catheters (Residents R1,
R5, and R11)
Findings include:
A facility policy entitled Suprapubic Catheter Replacement dated 12/02/24, indicated that the date and time
of the procedure, name of individual performing the procedure, and signature and title of the person
completing the procedure should be recorded in the resident's medical record.
A facility policy entitled Catheter Care, Urinary dated 12/02/24, indicated Maintain Unobstructed Urine Flow
3. The urinary drainage bag must be held or positioned lower than the bladder at all times . and Infection
Control 2. b. Be sure the catheter tubing and drainage bag are kept off the floor.
Resident R1's clinical record revealed an admission date of 12/22/22, with diagnoses that included
obstructive and reflux uropathy (occurs when the urine flow is blocked due to an obstruction and the urine
flows backwards from the bladder into the kidneys), diabetes (a health condition caused by the body's
inability to produce enough insulin), and high blood pressure.
Resident R1's clinical record revealed a physician's order dated 3/16/24, and again on 7/12/24, that
indicated Suprapubic Catheter change monthly every day shift every 30 days and Suprapubic Catheter bag
change monthly every day shift every 30 days.
Review of the Treatment Administration Record (TAR) and clinical record progress notes lacked evidence
that Resident R1's Suprapubic Catheter and Suprapubic Catheter Bag was changed during the month of
April 2024 , June 2024, and November 2024 as ordered by the physician.
During an interview on 12/04/24, at 1:36 p.m. the Regional Nurse Consultant confirmed that the facility
lacked evidence that Resident R1's Suprapubic Catheter and Bag were changed in April, June, and
November 2024 per physician orders.
Resident R5's clinical record revealed an admission date of 10/19/07, with diagnoses that included
obstructive and reflux uropathy, and dementia (a disease that affects short term memory and the ability to
think logically).
Resident R5's physician orders revealed an order dated 11/30/24, for a foley catheter.
Observation on 12/02/24, at 3:08 p.m. revealed Resident R5's urinary drainage bag lying on the floor
