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 observation, clinical record review, and staff interview, it was determined that the facility failed to
ensure that the resident's care plan was reviewed and revised to reflect the resident's current status for two
of 22 residents reviewed (Residents 57 and 75).
Findings include:
Review of Resident 57's clinical record revealed diagnoses that included vascular dementia (condition
caused by the lack of blood that carries oxygen and nutrient to a part of the brain that causes problems with
reasoning, planning, judgment, and memory) and chronic kidney disease (CKD - gradual loss of kidney
function).
Review of Resident 57's current care plan on January 17, 2024, at 11:02 AM, revealed the following
information: Resident 57 wore bilateral hearing aides, and staff were to ensure that the appliances were
clean and in working order; Resident 57 was actively being treated for a UTI (Urinary Tract Infection); and
Resident 57 was at risk of dehydration due to a 1600 cc per day fluid restriction.
Observation of Resident 57 on January 17, 2024, at 1:00 PM, revealed he was not wearing any hearing
aides.
During an immediate interview with Employee 2, she confirmed that Resident 57 was not wearing hearing
aides and that his wife had taken them home.
Review of Resident 57's physician orders revealed no current orders for treatment of a UTI.
Review of nursing progress notes revealed that the last notation made regarding treatment/tracking of a UTI
was November 21, 2023, when it was noted that there were not signs or symptoms of a UTI or adverse
reactions to previous antibiotic treatment.
Review of Resident 57's current physician orders revealed an order for 1800 cc per day fluid restriction,
effective December 19, 2023.
During an interview with the Nursing Home Administrator (NHA) on January 18, 2024, at 11:50 AM, she
revealed that Resident 57's care plan was updated to reflect that his hearing aides were not in use, and that
Resident 57's care plan was under revision to ensure it reflected the correct fluid restriction amount.
During a later interview with the NHA on January 18, 2024, at 2:40 PM, she acknowledged that Resident
57's care plan still included information about active treatment of a UTI, confirmed that Resident 57 was not
currently receiving treatment for a UTI, and revealed that the care plan would be updated.
Review of Resident 75's clinical record revealed diagnoses that included obstructive and reflux uropathy (a
blockage in the urinary tract that causes trouble urinating), benign prostatic hyperplasia (an enlarged
prostate), and pressure ulcer of sacral region (injury to skin and underlying tissue resulting from prolonged
pressure on the skin).

Review of Resident 75's current care plan on January 16, 2024, at 2:00 PM, revealed the following
information: Resident 75 was actively being treated for a UTI; and that he had an unstageable pressure
ulcer.
Review of Resident 75's Comprehensive MDS assessment (Minimum Data Set- assessment tool utilized to
identify residents' physical, mental, and psychosocial needs), with an ARD (assessment reference date last day of the assessment period) of December 21, 2023, revealed Resident 75 was coded as having a
stage III pressure ulcer.
Email correspondence with the NHA on January 17, 2024, at 11:56 AM, the surveyor inquired about when
Resident 75's pressure ulcer changed stages, and if he currently had an UTI.
Review of select facility documentation provided on January 17, 2024, at 1:05 PM, revealed Resident 75's
pressure ulcer changed from unstageable to stage III on December 21, 2023, and that Resident 75's UTI
had resolved on January 8, 2023.
Follow-up interview with the NHA on January 18, 2024, at 11:40 AM, revealed she would expect Resident
75's care plan to be updated to reflect the current stage of his wound and that he no longer has an UTI.

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 clinical records and resident and staff interviews, it was determined that the facility failed to
ensure care and services were provided in accordance with professional standards that met the residents
needs; and failed to implement resident-directed care and treatment consistent with the resident's physician
orders and care plan for two of 22 residents reviewed (Resident 70 and 75).
Residents Affected - Few
Findings include:
Review of Resident 70's clinical record revealed diagnoses that included noninfective gastroenteritis and
colitis, unspecified (inflammation of the stomach and intestines), and hypomagnesemia (electrolyte
imbalance caused by a low level of magnesium in the blood).
During an interview with Resident 70 on January 17, 2024, at 10:10 AM, she stated she has been suffering
from diarrhea for several weeks. She reported the diarrhea to be severe causing her to be incontinent at
times, and she stated, they can't seem to figure out what is causing it.
Further review of Resident 70's clinical record on January 18, 2024, at approximately 10:30 AM, revealed a
hospital discharge summary indicating she was admitted [DATE], to December 26, 2023, for electrolyte
derangement (an imbalance of electrolytes in the blood) and diarrhea.
Review of the hospital discharge summary revealed multiple stool tests were collected on December 18,
2023, and the results were pending at the time of discharge. The discharge summary also instructed to
follow-up with outpatient gastroenterology (physicians that focus on the digestive system and disorders).
Further review of Resident 70's clinical record failed to reveal results from any stool testing and a follow-up
appointment for outpatient gastroenterology.
During an interview with the Nursing Home Administrator (NHA) and Director of Nursing (DON) on January
18, 2024, at 11:50 AM, results of the stool testing and information on a follow-up gastroenterology
appointment were requested.
In a follow-up interview with the NHA and DON on January 18, 2024, at 2:47 PM, the NHA stated a call had
been placed to the hospital requesting results of the stool testing. She also stated a call had been placed to
the facility physician and Resident 70's family to check if further gastroenterology follow-up and treatment is
wanted.
During an additional interview with the DON on January 18, 2024, at 3:54 PM, results from the stool testing
were provided.
Review of the results provided revealed Resident 70's calprotectin stool test (a test used to check for
inflammation in the intestines) results were 525 mcg/g (micrograms/gram). The reference range indicated a
normal calprotectin level is less than 50 mcg/g and levels greater than 120 mcg/g are elevated. The DON
stated that after the facility physician reviewed the results of the testing, he had ordered a follow-up with
gastroenterology and the facility has placed a call to schedule an appointment. The DON confirmed the
result of testing should have been obtained and reviewed, and the follow-up appointment should have been
scheduled when Resident 70 returned from the hospital.
