Level of Harm - Minimal harm
or potential for actual harm
Based on review of facility policy, facility documents, and resident and staff interviews, it was determined
that the facility failed to correct Resident Council concerns for a period of six months (January 2025 through
June 2025).
Residents Affected - Some
Findings:
Review of facility policy, Resident Council, dated 2/18/25, indicated A Resident Council Response Form will
be utilized to track issues and their resolution. The facility department related to any issues will be
responsible for addressing the item(s) of concern. The Quality Assurance and Performance Improvement
(QAPI) Committee will review information and feedback from Resident Council as part of their quality
review. Issues documented on council response forms may be referred to the QAPI Committee, if
applicable (i.e., the issue is of serious nature or if there is a pattern, etc.).
Review of the Resident Council minutes and Grievances over the past six months, January 2025 through
June 2025, revealed a pattern/trend with issues regarding residents not receiving ice water.
During a Resident Council meeting on 6/11/25, at 10:30 a.m. interviews with alert and oriented Residents
R3, R7, R21, R76, and R77, who all attend Resident Council meetings regularly, indicated that concerns of
not receiving fresh ice water have not improved. Resident R77 indicated he/she only receives it if a family
member is visiting and gets it for him/her.
An interview with the Director of Nursing on 6/12/25, at approximately 12:30 p.m. confirmed that the facility
had not corrected the Resident Council concerns regarding residents not receiving ice water from the
January 2025, February 2025, March 2025, April 2025, May 2025, and June 2025 Resident Council
meetings.
No evidence was provided to ensure the residents' concerns verbalized and further stated in the Resident
Council minutes for the past six months reviewed was noted of timely corrective actions.

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, clinical records, and staff interview, it was determined that the facility failed to
assure physician orders and resident's Pennsylvania Order for Life Sustaining Treatment (POLST- a legal
document specifying the resident/responsible party choices regarding life-sustaining treatments) were
consistent for two of 22 residents reviewed (Residents R46 and R60).
Findings include:
Review of facility policy entitled Advance Directives dated [DATE], revealed Upon admission, the resident
will be provided with written information concerning the right to refuse or accept . and to formulate an
advance directive ., Information about whether or not the resident has executed an advance directive shall
be displayed prominently in the medical record. And The Director of Nursing Services . of advance
directives so that appropriate orders can be documented in the resident's medical record .
Review of Resident R46's clinical record revealed an admission date of [DATE], with diagnoses that
included diabetes (a health condition that caused by the body's inability to produce enough insulin),
dementia (a disease that affects short term memory and the ability to think logically), and chronic
obstructive pulmonary disease (a disease that obstructs air flow from the lungs).
Review of Resident R46's paper clinical record revealed a POLST dated [DATE], signed by the physician for
Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation (CPR-emergency life-saving procedure that is done when breathing or a
heartbeat has stopped and when performed immediately can double or triple chances of survival after
cardiac arrest)- Full Code. Review of physician's orders revealed an order dated [DATE], for Do Not Attempt
Resuscitation (DNR- allow natural death). Further review of Resident R46's clinical record revealed a
second POLST dated [DATE], with no evidence of the resident and/or resident representatives' signature
for Do Not Attempt Resuscitation (DNR- allow natural death).
Review of Resident R60's clinical record revealed an admission date of [DATE], with diagnoses that
included hypertension (high blood pressure), hyperlipidemia (high cholesterol), and hypothyroidism (a
condition when the thyroid produces low amounts of thyroid hormones).
Review of Resident R60's clinical record revealed an incomplete POLST dated [DATE], part A of the
POLST was not filled out to indicate Resident R60's wishes of a Full Code or DNR.
During an interview on [DATE], at 10:40 a.m. Licensed Practical Nurses Employees E8 and E9 revealed
that during an emergent situation the staff refer to resident's paper chart to determine resident Life
Sustaining wishes.
During an interview on [DATE], at 10:50 a.m. the Director of Nursing (DON) confirmed that Resident R46's
POLST in the paper chart was for Full Code and Resident R46's electronic clinical record POLST was for
DNR and lacked the resident and/or resident representatives' signature. He/she confirmed that Resident
R60's POLST was incomplete and did not identify Resident R60's wishes of a Full Code or DNR. He/she
also confirmed that a resident's advance directive should match in both paper and electronic records and
advance directive should be complete indicating the resident and/or resident representative wishes.

bed-hold policies.
Based on review of facility policy, clinical records and staff interview it was determined that the facility failed
to provide the resident and/or resident representative with a written notice of the facility bed-hold policy
(explanation of how long a bed can be held during a leave of absence and the cost per day) and failed to
make certain that the necessary resident information was communicated to the receiving health care
provider for one of four residents reviewed (Resident R46).
Findings include:
Review of facility policy entitled Transfer and Discharge (including AMA[against medical advice]) dated
2/18/25, revealed For a transfer to another provider, for any reason, the following information must be
provided to the receiving provider: a. Contact information of the practitioner who is responsible for the care

included diabetes (a health condition that caused by the body's inability to produce enough insulin),
dementia (a disease that affects short term memory and the ability to think logically), and chronic
obstructive pulmonary disease (a disease that obstructs air flow from the lungs).
Review of Resident R46's clinical record revealed a progress note dated 4/8/25, at 4:55 p.m. identifying a
transfer to the hospital. The clinical record lacked evidence that Resident R46's necessary clinical
information was communicated to the receiving health care provider. Resident R46's clinical record also
lacked evidence indicating that Resident R46 and/or their representative was provided with a copy of the
facility bed-hold policy upon transfer.

policy that included the cost per day; confirmed that there was no evidence that the necessary clinical
information was provided to the receiving healthcare provider upon transfer; and also confirmed when the
transfers occurred the resident and/or their representative should have been provided with bed hold policy

vial stored at room temperature should be discarded after 28 days.

insulins and eye drop medications should be properly labeled with an open date for staff to determine the
discard date.
