Findings include: The Long-Term Care Facility Resident Assessment Instrument (RAI) User's Manual, which provides instructions and guidelines for completing required Minimum Data Set (MDS) assessments (mandated assessments of a resident's abilities and care needs), dated October 2024, indicated that for admission MDS assessments, the assessment completion date was to be no later than the resident's admission date plus 13 calendar days. An admission Minimum Data Set (MDS) assessment (a mandated assessment of a resident's abilities and care needs) for Resident 2, dated August 22, 2024, revealed that the resident was admitted on [DATE]. The resident's MDS was documented in section Z0500B as being completed on September 13, 2024, which was 29 days after admission. Interview with the Nursing Home Administrator on October 2, 2024, at 3:35 p.m. confirmed that Resident 2's admission MDS assessment was not completed within the required timeframe. A nursing note for Resident 4, dated August 6, 2024, revealed that the resident was admitted to the facility from home with diagnosis of malignant neoplasm (a cancerous tumor that develops when cells grow and divide abnormally, and can invade nearby tissues and spread to other parts of the body).

F 0656 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Some Develop and implement a complete care plan that meets all the resident's needs, with timetables and actions that can be measured. Based on review of policies and clinical records, as well as staff interviews, it was determined that the facility failed to develop care plans to address individualized resident care needs for one of 11 residents reviewed (Resident 4). Findings include: The facility's policy regarding care plans, dated January 15, 2024, indicated that a comprehensive, person-centered care plan that includes measurable objectives and timetables to meet the resident's physical, psychological and functional needs is developed and implemented for each resident. Assessments of residents are ongoing and care plans are revised as information about the resident and the resident's condition changes. Physician's orders for Resident 4, dated August 16, 2024, included an order for the resident to be admitted to hospice (specialized care that provides physical comfort and emotional, social, and spiritual support for people nearing the end of life). A nursing note for Resident 4, dated August 7, 2024, revealed that the resident was seen by the physician regarding his admission to the facility and that the resident was on hospice. A nursing note for Resident 4, dated August 16, 2024, revealed that the resident's power of attorney stopped the services from the resident's initial hospice provider and changed to another hospice provider effective that date. However, as of October 2, 2024, there was no documented evidence that a care plan was developed to address Resident 4's individualized care needs related to him being on hospice. Interview with the Nursing Home Administrator on October 2, 2024, at 3:25 p.m. confirmed that Resident 4 did not have a care plan in place to address the care and treatment required for him being on hospice. 28 Pa.

F 0657 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Few Develop the complete care plan within 7 days of the comprehensive assessment; and prepared, reviewed, and revised by a team of health professionals. Based on review of policies and clinical records, as well as staff interviews, it was determined that the facility failed to ensure that care plans were updated to reflect changes in residents' care needs for three of 11 residents reviewed (Residents 1, 2, 4). Findings include: The facility's policy regarding care plans, dated January 15, 2024, indicated that a comprehensive, person-centered care plan that includes measurable objectives and timetables to meet the resident's physical, psychological and functional needs is developed and implemented for each resident. Assessments of residents are ongoing and care plans are revised as information about the resident and the residents' condition changes. A quarterly Minimum Data Set (MDS) assessment (a mandated assessment of a resident's abilities and care needs) for Resident 1, dated August 2, 2024, revealed that the resident was understood and was able to understand others, required assistance with care needs, received diuretic medications (medications used to treat fluid build-up), and had diagnoses that included congestive heart failure (the heart cannot pump blood as well as it should causing weight gain due to fluid to build up in the lungs and lower legs), hypertension (high blood pressure), and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) (chronic lung disease making breathing difficult). A nurse's note for Resident 1, dated September 25, 2024, at 4:34 p.m., revealed that the resident's daughter had concerns related to his recent low blood pressures, diuretic medications, and syncopal (fainting) episodes. A nurse's note for Resident 1, dated September 25, 2024, at 5:07 p.m., revealed that new orders were obtained for blood pressure parameters for his lasix and spironolactone. Physician's orders for Resident 1, dated September 25, 2024, indicated that the resident was to receive 40 milligrams (mg) of Lasix (a diuretic medication) twice daily. Instructions revealed that the Lasix was to be held if his systolic blood pressure (the top number) was less than 110 millimeters of mercury (mm/Hg) or his diastolic blood pressure (the bottom number) was less than 60 millimeters of mercury (mm/Hg). Physician's orders for Resident 1, dated September 26, 2024, indicated that the resident was to receive 25 mg of Spironolactone (a diuretic medication) daily. Instructions revealed that the Spironolactone was to be held if his systolic blood pressure was less than 110 mm/Hg or his diastolic blood pressure was less than 60 mm/Hg. A care plan for Resident 1, dated January 10, 2023, revealed that the resident was taking diuretic medications related to congestive heart failure. There was no documented evidence that the resident's care plan was revised to reflect the blood pressure parameters put in place related to his diuretic medications. Interview with the Nursing Home Administrator on October 2, 2024, at 3:35 p.m. confirmed that Resident 1's care plan was not revised to reflect the blood pressure parameters put in place related to his diuretic medications.

Residents Affected - Few Review of clinical records for Resident 2 revealed that the resident had a preference to receive showers. A shower schedule for her unit indicated that she was to receive a shower weekly on Thursdays in the a.m. A note attached to the shower schedule indicated that the resident's family wanted her to receive a shower more than weekly. There was no documented evidence that Resident 2's care plan was revised to reflect her preference for showers and her family's request for her to receive showers more than weekly. Interview with the Nursing Home Administrator on October 2, 2024, at 3:25 p.m. confirmed that Resident 2's care plan was not updated to reflect her preference for showers and her family's request for her to receive showers more than weekly.

A nursing note for Resident 4, dated September 17, 2024, revealed that the writer was called to assess the resident at this time. The resident was observed lying on the floor on his back to the left side of his bed. The resident remained alert and responsive per his baseline. The resident was transferred back to bed by a mechanical lift. Will add a fall mat to the left side of the resident's bed as a new intervention. Observations of Resident 4 on October 2, 2024, at 11:33 a.m. and 1:45 p.m. revealed that the resident was in his room in a BRODA chair (a specialized wheelchair that provides safe, comfortable, long-term seating that can dramatically reduce the number of falls) in a reclined position.

Based on review of clinical records, as well as resident and staff interviews, it was determined that the facility failed to maintain clinical records that were complete and accurately documented for one of 11 residents reviewed (Resident 1). Findings include: A quarterly Minimum Data Set (MDS) assessment (a mandated assessment of a resident's abilities and care needs) for Resident 1, dated August 2, 2024, revealed that the resident was understood and was able to understand others, required assistance with care needs, received diuretic medications (medications used to treat fluid build-up), and had diagnoses that included congestive heart failure (the heart cannot pump blood as well as it should causing weight gain due to fluid to build up in the lungs and lower legs), hypertension (high blood pressure), and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) (chronic lung disease making breathing difficult). A nurse's note for Resident 1, dated September 25, 2024, at 4:34 p.m., revealed that the resident's daughter had concerns related to his recent low blood pressures, diuretic medications, and syncopal (fainting) episodes. Physician's orders for Resident 1, dated September 25, 2024, indicated that the resident's orthostatic (lying, sitting, standing) blood pressure (a measurement of blood pressure while a person is lying down, sitting, and standing) was to be monitored daily in the morning for a period of seven days until October 1, 2024. Review of Resident 1's clinical records revealed that the nursing staff were documenting that the orthostatic blood pressures were being obtained, but there was no documented evidence in the resident's clinical record of the obtained results of the orthostatic blood pressures as ordered in the lying, sitting, and standing positions on September 26, 28, and 29, 2024. Interview with the Nursing Home Administrator on October 2, 2024, at 3:50 p.m. confirmed that there was no documented evidence in Resident 1's clinical record of the obtained results of the orthostatic blood pressures as ordered in the lying, sitting, and standing positions on the above-mentioned dates.
