Ensure that feeding tubes are not used unless there is a medical reason and the resident agrees; and
provide appropriate care for a resident with a feeding tube.
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
clinical record review and staff interview, it was determined the facility failed to provide nutritional services
by enteral feeding as ordered by the physician for one of two residents reviewed (Residents R3).
Findings include:
The facility policy entitled Feeding Tubes (delivery of food or medication via tube surgically inserted into

Review of a physician order dated 11/16/23, discontinued on 11/18/23, at 2:30 p.m., indicated that Resident
R3 was to receive IsoSource via enteral tube at a rate of 60 cubic centimeters (cc) per hour, for each shift.
Review of Resident R3's progress notes dated 11/18/23, indicated Upon changing the patient's enteral
feed, I noticed that the feed itself was the incorrect feed. The patient is ordered Isosource @ 60 mL
(milliliters) per hour. The patient had running Peptide 1.5 @ 50 mL per hour. The bag was immediately
switched out and the settings were corrected on the pump. The supervisor was made aware.
Review of facility documentation dated 11/18/23, indicated the incorrect enteral feeding product was
administered to Resident R3.
During an interview on 12/5/23, at 4:00 p.m. the Nursing Home Administrator confirmed the facility failed to
provide nutritional services by enteral feeding as ordered by the physician for one of two residents

health, safety and welfare by making certain residents understand the conditions of a binding arbitration

a form and manner that he or she understands, for three of seven residents.

Provide a neutral and fair arbitration process and agree to arbitrator and venue.
Level of Harm - Minimal harm
or potential for actual harm
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
review of the facility's admission agreement and staff interviews, it was determined that the facility failed to
ensure a neutral and fair arbitration process by ensuring both the resident or his or her representative, and
the facility agree on the selection of a neutral arbitrator.
Residents Affected - Some
Findings include:
Review of facility's admission Agreement packet, which contained the document Voluntary Arbitration
Agreement, indicated that Accordingly, any dispute arising out of relating to the provision of services by the
Facility to [NAME] Resident, Resident ' s admission to the Facility, Resident ' s contracts with the Facility or
the subject matter thereof, any breach of contract, including any dispute regarding the execution, validity or
scope of this Arbitration Agreement or any of its clauses, will be resolved through arbitration administered
by [name of arbitrator services company which the facility utilizes] and conducted pursuant to the
[arbitrator] Rules of Procedure for Arbitration.
The facility's arbitration agreement failed to provide for the selection of a neutral arbitrator agreed upon by
both parties as one is designated in the facility arbitration agreement, in accordance with
§483.70(n)(2)(iii). (Regulatory guidance defines a neutral Arbitrator as an impartial, or unbiased
third-party decision maker, contracted with, and agreed to by both parties to resolve their dispute. To ensure
a neutral arbitrator is selected, the facility should avoid even the appearance of bias, partiality, or a conflict
of interest, and should promptly disclose to the resident or his or her representative the extent of any
relationship which exists with an arbitrator or arbitration services company, including how often the facility
has contracted with the arbitrator or arbitration service, and when the arbitrator or arbitration service has
ruled for or against the facility).
During an interview on 12/11/23, at 2:00 p.m. the Nursing Home Administrator confirmed the language of
the arbitration agreement may appear not to afford the selection of a neutral arbitrator as it indicates that all
arbitrations are administered by the facility's contracted arbitration service.
