This failure could place residents with G-tube at risk of medical complications, or a decline in health due to inappropriate G-tube management and not following appropriate procedures. Record review of Resident #90's face sheet dated 07/23/25 revealed the resident had an original admission date to the facility on [DATE], with diagnoses that included Metabolic encephalopathy (brain dysfunction caused by an underlying condition that affects your metabolism), anemia (when your blood doesn't carry enough oxygen to the rest of your body), dysphagia (difficulty swallowing), severe protein-calorie malnutrition (serious health condition stemming from an insufficient intake or absorption of protein and energy), and gastrostomy status (feeding tube which goes directly into the stomach). Record review of Resident #90's annual MDS dated [DATE] revealed a BIMS score of 6 which indicated severely impaired cognition. Resident #90's nutritional status for eating was total dependence of one person per gastrostomy tube.

When asked about residuals, LVN C stated she forgot to check, but knew the procedure to check for residual after the resident's G-tube placement was checked. During an interview on 07/22/25 at 11:45 AM, LVN C stated she was aware she forgot to check for residuals but knew how important it was to check. LVN C stated not checking for residuals could have led to over contents in the stomach which in turn could have led to aspiration. LVN C stated she had been in-serviced (trained) on how and why to check for residuals prior to giving nutrition or medications. LVN C stated she could not remember when the last in-service was. During an interview on 07/25/25 at 9:20 AM, the DON stated that the facility had in-serviced nursing staff regarding G-tube care which included checking for residuals prior to feedings or medications.

Resident #100 received oxygen at 2.5 LPM via nasal cannula without a physician's order. 2. The facility failed to ensure that Resident #52 received oxygen as prescribed. These deficient practices could affect the residents who received oxygen continuously and could result in residents receiving incorrect or inadequate oxygen support and could result in a decline in health. Residents Affected - Few The findings were: 1. Review of Resident #100's face sheet, dated 8/15/18, revealed she was admitted to the facility on [DATE] and readmitted on [DATE] with diagnoses that included chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, pneumonia, and hypoxia.

Observation on 07/21/25 at 11:22 AM revealed Resident #100 was laying on bed with a nasal cannula on and oxygen was administered at 2.5 LPM (Liters Per Minute). During an interview on 07/21/25 at 11:35 PM with LVN A, after she looked at Resident #'s physician orders, confirmed there were no orders for oxygen. LVN A reported Resident #100 required the oxygen because without it, her blood oxygen saturations would drop, and she wanted to keep the oxygen saturations above 90%. LVN A said that it was important to have a physician's order in place to administer the adequate amount of oxygen to Resident #100. During an interview on 7/21/25 at 11:50 AM, DON said that it was important to have a physician's order in place because nurses had to follow physician's orders. DON said that a negative outcome by not having the physician's order in place, Resident #100 could get hypoxic (low level of oxygen in the blood), or get too much oxygen leading to oxygen toxicity. DON said that without the physician's order, staff would not know how much oxygen needed to be given to the resident. 2.

Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm **NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based observation, interview, and record review, the facility failed to maintain an Infection Prevention and Control Program designed to provide a safe, sanitary, and comfortable environment and to help prevent the development and transmission of communicable diseases and infections for 3 (Resident #6, Resident #96, and Resident #66) of 7 residents reviewed for infection control, in that:1) The facility failed to ensure that LVN D performed hand hygiene for at least 20 seconds prior to and after medication administration for resident #6. 2) The facility failed to ensure that CNA H and CNA I followed the Enhanced Barrier Precautions (EBP) when they did not wear a gown while providing perineal/foley care to Resident #96.3) The facility failed to ensure that LVN G and LVN J put on PPE when they entered Resident #66's room who was on isolation precautions. These failures could place residents at risk for healthcare associated cross-contamination and infections. Residents Affected - Some Findings included: Record review of Resident #6's face sheet 07/23/25 reflected a [AGE] year-old-female with an initial admission date of 12/06/22. Diagnoses included Encephalopathy (damage or disease that affect the brain), dysphasia (difficulty swallowing) following cerebral infarction (occurs when the blood supply to part of the brain is blocked or reduced), chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (lung condition caused by damage to the airways and alveoli, usually from smoking or other irritants), and gastrostomy status (medical condition of a patient with a gastrostomy tube). Record review of Resident #6's Quarterly MDS assessment, dated 06/20/2025 revealed a BIMS score of 2, which indicated Resident #6's had severe cognitive impairment. Further review revealed nutritional status was a feeding tube.
