Residents Affected - Few
Findings include:
Clinical record review revealed that Resident 283 had diagnoses that included ambulatory dysfunction.

required assistance from staff to walk. There was a physician's order dated April 18, 2023, that staff provide

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, observation, and staff and resident interview, it was determined that the facility failed
to provide enteral nutrition (delivery of nutrition by a feeding tube) in accordance with the physician's order
for one of 36 sampled residents. (Resident 248)
Findings include:
Clinical record review revealed that Resident 248 had diagnoses that included stroke, paralysis to the right
side, and anorexia. Review of the Minimum Data Set (MDS) assessment dated [DATE], revealed that the
resident required extensive assistance for activities of daily living. Further review of the MDS assessment
revealed that the resident received more than 51% of nutrition through an enteral feeding tube. A
physician's order dated April 25, 2023, directed staff to administer Osmolite 1.5 (a tube feeding formula) at
a rate of 100 milliliters (ml) per hour starting at 6:00 p.m., and to continue until a total volume of 1200 ml
was infused. On May 9, 2023, at 10:23 a.m., the resident was observed in bed. A bottle of tube feed formula
was on the pole and was labeled and dated May 8, 2023, at 6:00 p.m. The tube feeding was not infusing at
the time of the observation. Formula remained in the bottle, just below the 200 ml line. The bottle contained
1000 ml of formula when full. In an interview on May 9, 2023, at 10:48 a.m., Licensed Practical Nurse 1
(LPN 1), stated that the total volume of tube feed as ordered was typically infused during the night shift and
the order required two bottles of tube feed formula. In an interview on May 9, 2023, at 11:05 a.m.,
Registered Nurse 1 (RN 1), stated that there was no evidence that the resident had refused administration
of a second bottle of tube feed formula during the night shift. In an interview on May 9, 2023, at 12:29 p.m.,
Resident 248 stated that he is awoken during the night shift when staff changed the tube feed bottle and
staff did not wake him during the night shift on May 8, 2023, to administer the second bottle of tube feed.
There was no evidence that staff administered a second bottle of tube feed formula that would have been
required to complete the total volume of 1200 ml per the physician's order.
In an interview on May 11, 2023, at 8:31 a.m., the Director of Nursing confirmed that staff did not
administer the second bottle of tube feed formula to provide the total volume of 1200 ml per the physician's
