F 0688 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Few Provide appropriate care for a resident to maintain and/or improve range of motion (ROM), limited ROM and/or mobility, unless a decline is for a medical reason. **NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on observation, interview, and record review the facility failed to ensure a resident with limited range of motion received appropriate treatment and services to increase range of motion and/or prevent further decrease in range of motion for 1 of 3 residents (Resident #25) reviewed for contracture management The facility failed to provide equipment/services for Resident #25's right hand contracture (a permanent tightening of the muscles). This failure could place residents at risk for a decline in range of motion, decreased mobility, worsening of contractures, and a decline in physical capabilities. Findings included: Record review of Resident #25's MDS dated [DATE] reflected the resident was a [AGE] year-old male admitted to the facility on [DATE]. His diagnoses included aphasia (language disorder that affects a person's ability to communicate), hemiplegia (muscle weakness or partial paralysis on one side of the body). The MDS further reflected Resident #25 has memory problems. Record review of Resident #25's care plan revised on 08/15/24 reflected the resident had ADL self-care performance deficit related to functional limitations in range of motion, decreased mobility, and hemiplegia secondary to a stroke. Interventions included therapy to screen, evaluate, and treat as needed. Observation on 01/14/25 at 2:53 PM of Resident #25 revealed he was in his room sitting in his wheelchair. The resident was noted with a contracture to his right hand and there was no device in place. Resident #25 was not able to speak but appeared to shake his head when asked yes/no questions.

The resident's right hand was contracted, and there was no contracture management device in place his right hand. Interview on 01/16/25 at 9:25 AM with CNA I revealed Resident #25 did have a splint for his hand contracture and either therapy or the nurse were responsible for applying it. CNA I said the resident did not have it the past two days because it was probably in the laundry as it would frequently get soiled. CNA I further stated if the splint was being laundered, the resident should have a rolled washcloth placed in the contracted hand until the splint was returned. Interview on 01/16/25 at 9:01 AM with LVN H revealed Resident #25 did have a splint for his contracted right hand and either therapy or the nurses were responsible for applying the splint .

F 0688 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Few right hand. She stated she was not aware who had initiated the palm guard for the resident's contracture. The Occupational Therapist said it had been about two weeks since she had been able to locate the palm guard and did not know if it had been taken to the laundry to get washed . The Occupational Therapist said there should be an order in place for the palm guard to remind staff to be consistent in applying the palm guard. The Occupational Therapist further stated the palm guard was used to maintain gross motor movement and prevent further limitation in range of motion. Interview on 01/16/25 at 2:02 PM with ADON B revealed Resident #25 normally had a palm guard in place for his contracture and it was usually placed in his right hand by therapy or the nurse. ADON B said she was not sure why the resident was not wearing it the past two days. She said if the palm guard had been taken to the laundry, staff should replace it with a rolled washcloth until the palm guard was brought back from laundry. ADON B further stated not having anything in place in Resident #25's contracture could cause skin breakdown in his hand, advancement of the contracture, and pain from stiffness. ADON B also said there should have been an order for the palm guard, and she would need to clarify why there was not one already in place . Record review of the facility's policy titled Splinting revised January 2020 reflected the following: Policy Splinting is used to protect joints and surrounding soft tissue. This can be accomplished by maintaining joints at position of rest, preventing positions that contribute to contracture and/or deformity, protecting the system of arches within the hand and increasing and maintaining ROM in the joint.

Interview by phone on [DATE] at 8:08 AM with the Medical Director revealed he was aware of Resident #67's g-tube having multiple issues with clogging. The Medical Director stated each facility used different methods to unclog a g-tube. He stated he did not recall any staff notifying him or him giving any orders for the use of a de-clogger. He stated he was not sure what a de-clogger was. The Medical Director stated if the facility nurses had proper training on how to use a de-clogger and if the tool/device was FDA approved he did not have any issues with the nurses using it. He stated he was not familiar with the device to know of any possible risk, he stated there could be risk, but he did not know what the probability of it would be. The Medical Director stated the use of coke had been used at hospitals in the ERs because the carbonation helped with unclogging g-tubes. He stated he had no issues with nurses using that method. The Medical Director stated he did not necessarily need to be called all the time when situations happened. Interview on [DATE] at 8:52 AM with ADON B revealed when a resident's g-tube clogs it was the expectation for the nurse to notify the doctor, attempt to unclog it by using methods like flushing with warm water, milk it down (hold the tube on the top and push down), and if nothing was working send the resident out to the emergency room. She stated they have used a de-clogger in the past usually after talking to the doctor if they cannot clear the line. She stated on her station they have not used any de-cloggers and was unaware if de-cloggers had been used in the South station. She stated it was up to the doctor's discretion if de-cloggers were to be used. She stated if a de-clogger was used it should be documented and had obtained a physician order. She stated a de-clogger was not part of their training and not part of the nurses check off. Interview on [DATE] at 11:37 AM with NP revealed Resident #67 had issues with his g-tube clogging. She stated it was not normal for his g-tube to clog. She stated in [DATE], unknown of exact date, the resident was sent out to the ER twice. The first time was because the g-tube was partially dislodged. She stated the hospital should have changed the g-tube bud did not. She stated the resident returned to the facility and the g-tube clogged. She stated she was notified, and she recommended to try to unclog it first in house and if unsuccessful send the resident to the hospital; however, the nurse was able to successfully unclog the g-tube. She stated she was unaware a de-clogger and coke was used. She stated her expectations were for the nurses to use methods like using a 10 ml syringe to push back pressure, or to use water. She stated she would not recommend using a de-clogger and had never been a point in time where they would use a de-clogger. She stated maybe there was a misunderstanding when she said de-clog in house that maybe the nurses thought to use any method to unclog it. The NP stated the risk of using a de-clogger could cause injury or if the de-clogger was long enough to perforate something. She stated nurses should be trained to use a de-clogger and should obtain orders if a de-clogger was being used. The NP stated, unknown of the exact date, Resident #67 went to the hospital again because his g-tube clogged again, his g-tube was changed, and it had been working fine since then.
