**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
clinical record review, observation and resident and staff interview, it was determined that the facility failed
to ensure that a resident had the call bell accessible for one of 33 sampled residents. (Resident 139)
Findings include:
Clinical record review revealed that Resident 139 had diagnoses of Parkinson's disease, dysphagia,
(difficulty swallowing) and history of mild protein and calorie malnutrition. The Minimum Data Set
assessment dated [DATE], indicated that the resident was alert and oriented, was frequently incontinent of
bowel and bladder and had limitations in his upper and lower extremities on both sides. The care plan
identified that the resident was at risk for falls due to Parkinson's disease. There was an intervention for
staff to ensure that the resident had his call bell within reach.
On February 20, 2024, at 10:29 a.m., 11:00 a.m., and 12:18 p.m., the resident was observed in bed. His
touch pad call bell had been placed near the top of his pillow, completely out of his reach. At 10:29 a.m.,
the resident stated that he was thirsty and that he needed fresh water in his cup that was on his over the
bed table. The cup of water was on the table and was out of his reach.
On February 21, 2024, at 9:55 a.m., the resident was observed in bed. The call bell had been placed on his
upper right shoulder, but it was upside down. At that time, the resident stated that he could not reach the
call bell and that the cord needed to be about four to five inches longer so that he could utilize it to call for
assistance from staff.
In an interview on February 22, 2024, at 9:56 a.m., the Registered Nurse (RN 2 ) stated that the cord had
not been long enough for the resident to reach the call bell and that he was capable of utilizing the call bell
to call for assistance from staff.

**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
clinical record review and staff interview, it was determined that the facility failed to develop a
comprehensive care plan to meet each resident's needs identified in the comprehensive assessment for
two of 33 sampled residents. (Resident 39, 42)
Findings include:
Clinical record review revealed that Resident 39 was admitted to the facility on [DATE], and had diagnoses
that included muscle weakness and history of a traumatic brain injury. The Minimum Data Set (MDS)
assessment dated [DATE], identified that Resident 39 was frequently incontinent of urine and the Care Area
Assessment (CAA) summary indicated that it was to be addressed in the care plan. There was no evidence
that interventions to address Resident 39's urinary incontinence were included in the current care plan.
Clinical record review revealed that Resident 42 was admitted to the facility on [DATE], and had diagnoses
that included Parkinson's disease and dementia. The MDS assessment dated [DATE], indicated that
Resident 42 was always incontinent of urine and the CAA summary indicated that it was to be addressed in
the care plan. There was no evidence that interventions to address Resident 42's urinary incontinence were
included in the current care plan.
In an interview on February 22, 2024, at 11:35 a.m., the Director of Nursing confirmed that the identified
care areas were not addressed in the residents' care plans.

Level of Harm - Minimal harm
or potential for actual harm
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
clinical record review, observation, and resident interview, it was determined that the facility failed to ensure
that appropriate assistance with eating was provided to one of four sampled residents who required
assistance with activities of daily living, including eating. (Resident 139)
Residents Affected - Few
Findings include:
Clinical record review revealed that Resident 139 had diagnoses that included Parkinson's disease,
cognitive communication deficit, and history of mild protein malnutrition. The Minimum Data Set assesment
dated February 5, 2024, indicated that the resident was alert and oriented and had limitations in range of
motion of his upper and lower extremities on both sides. The care plan identified that the resident had a
self-care deficit in activities of daily living, including eating. There was an intervention that indicated he
required hands-on assistance for eating and drinking.
Review of a speech language pathology Discharge summary dated [DATE], revealed a therapist
documented that the resident was totally dependent for feeding assistance. Further review of the summary
revealed that the therapist recommended close supervision and feeding assistance as he was totally
dependent for eating.
Review of a nutrition note dated February 16, 2024, revealed that the resident needed to be fed by staff
because of tremors that he had from Parkinson's disease.
Observation on February 21, 2024, at 12:20 p.m., revealed that the resident was in his room in bed and a
staff member brought in his food tray and placed it on his over the bed table. At 12:40 p.m., the resident
was still not eating and had not touched any of the food or drinks on his food tray. He stated that staff
usually assisted him with eating his meals; however, today no one had assisted him with eating his meal.
He further stated that he was hungry and thirsty. It was not until 12:45 p.m., 25 minutes after receiving his
meal, that a staff member went in to the room and sat down to assist him with eating his meal.

oxycodone, every four hours as needed for moderate to severe pain. Review of the care plan revealed the
resident had pain and interventions included that staff offer relaxation therapy, heat and cold application,
muscle simulation, or positioning to assist with pain control. Review of the Medication Administration
Records (MARs), revealed that the resident received the oxycodone six times in January and twice in
February, 2024, without evidence to support that non-pharmacological interventions were offered prior to
the administration of the as needed pain medication.
Clinical record review revealed that Resident 64 had diagnoses that included fibromyalgia and muscle
wasting and atrophy (shrinking of muscles). A physician's order dated November 17, 2023, directed staff to

without evidence to support that non-pharmacological interventions were offered prior to the administration
of the as needed pain medication.
Clinical record review revealed that Resident 116 had diagnoses that included lumbago with sciatica (low
back pain) and muscle weakness. A physician's order dated July 14, 2023, directed staff to administer the
narcotic pain medication, oxycodone, every six hours as needed for pain. Review of the care plan revealed
the resident had chronic pain and interventions included that staff offer relaxation therapy, heat and cold
application, muscle stimulation, or positioning to assist with pain control. Review of the MARs, revealed that
