**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
observation, interview, and record review the facility failed to ensure that a resident who needs respiratory
care was provided such care, consistent with professional standards of practice for 1 resident (Residents
#1) of 7 residents reviewed for respiratory care. -The facility failed to ensure that Residents #1, who
required continuous oxygen therapy, received adequate oxygen when his portable oxygen tank ran out of
oxygen while the resident was in the community at an appointment on 10/29/2025. Resident #1 was
transported to the local hospital and diagnosed with acute hypoxia (low levels of oxygen) The
non-compliance was identified as past non-compliance (PNC). The Immediate Jeopardy began on 10/29/25
and ended on 10/30/25. The facility had corrected the non-compliance before the state's investigation
began. This failure could place residents who receive oxygen therapy at risk of receiving inadequate oxygen
support, which could result in serious harm or death.Findings included:Record review of Resident #1's face
sheet, dated 10/31/25, reflected a [AGE] year-old male who was initially admitted to the facility on [DATE]
and readmitted on [DATE] with diagnoses that included: Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (lung
disease) and acute and chronic respiratory failure. Record review of Resident 1's Nursing Home PPS MDS
assessment, dated 09/12/25, reflected his BIMS score was 11, which indicated moderate cognitive
impairment. The MDS Assessment under Section GG-Functional Abilities, reflected Resident #1 required
supervision to moderate assistance with most ADLs. The MDS Assessment under Section I-Active
Diagnoses reflected Resident #1 had a primary medical condition of cardiorespiratory with other
comorbidities that included chronic lung disease, asthma, and respiratory failure. Further review of this
document, under Section O-Special Treatments, Procedures, and Programs, reflected Resident #1 received
continuous oxygen therapy. Record review of Resident 1's care plan, revised 09/08/25, reflected the
resident had altered respiratory status/difficulty and was on continuous oxygen therapy r/t acute and
chronic respiratory failure with hypoxia. Interventions included: administering medication as orders,
monitoring for effectiveness and s/sx of respiratory distress and reporting to the MD. Record review of
Resident #1's consolidated physician orders, dated 10/31/25, reflected in part the following: -Oxygen at 2-4
lpm via nasal cannula continuous for COPD -start date: 10/31/25-Continuous BIPAP at night at
bedtime-start date: 09/09/25 Record review of Resident #1's progress notes, dated 10/29/25 at 1:45 PM by
ADON A, reflected the following: [Resident #1] on the way from dental appointment. [CNA D] report
[Resident #1] is having SOB in transport although resident is on oxygen tank via nasal canula. [MD]
informed HGB was 6.4 and [Resident #1] is now having SOB. Order given to send to [local hospital].
Transport pulled over van and 911 called. Record review of Resident #1's hospital records, dated 10/29/25,
reflected in part the following: Chief Complaint: hypoxic- pt on 02 at baseline, was being transported to
doctor's appointment by [transportation service] and ran out of 02, leading to hypoxia w/ Spo2 50% on EMS

failure secondary to COPD and chronic diastolic CHF was transported from his long-term facility to a dental
appointment where apparently he had longer than usual stay and his tank ran out of oxygen. EMS called
and patient was noted to be hypoxic. The patient was then brought to the hospital for further evaluation.
Upon arrival, the patient noted to be in acute on chronic respiratory failure with hypoxia and hypercapnia
(high levels of carbon dioxide). In the ED, chest x-ray showed peripheral infiltrate (fluid/substance in lungs)
over the right lower lobe. The patient was having difficulty breathing but was on BiPAP when interviewed.
The patient denied any chest pain. Does complain of some shortness of breath. Denies any nausea
vomiting or abdominal pain. No headache or blurry vision. In an interview on 10/31/25 at 10:43 AM, ADON
A stated she worked at the facility for about 1 and 1/2 years. She stated Resident #1 had a dental
appointment at the VA and he left the facility around 8:00 AM with a full portable oxygen tank. ADON A
stated Resident #1 was escorted to his appointment by CNA D, and the appointment was expected to last
about 30 mins because Resident #1 was only picking up new dentures. However, ADON A stated the
appointment lasted longer than expected. She stated a full portable oxygen tank could last 3-4 hours, but
Resident #1 was away from the facility for approximately 5 hours. ADON A stated around 1:00 AM, CNA D
notified her that Resident #1 was complaining of shortness of breath. ADON A stated she advised them to
pull the van over and call 911, and Resident #1 was transported to the local hospital. ADON A stated she
had never experienced a resident running out of oxygen while away from the facility because the nurses
always ensured they had full portable oxygen tanks before leaving, and the residents returned when
expected. She stated the facility immediately held an IDT meeting and implemented interventions to prevent
this from happening again. ADON A stated they updated the procedures for oxygen care to include sending
an extra portable oxygen tank to appointments with residents who were on continuous oxygen therapy and
training all staff on oxygen care. ADON A stated she had designated aides who escorted residents to all
appointments with other aides who could assist if needed, and she ensured those staff were trained on how
to check the oxygen tanks for oxygen levels and settings. She also stated that nurses were responsible for
ensuring that the oxygen tanks were full and functioning while preparing the residents for their
appointments, and aides were expected to assist with checking the oxygen tanks and reporting any issues
to the nurses. In an interview on 10/31/25 at 12:35 PM, with the Assistant Administrator and DON, the DON
stated the expectation was for the nurses to check all oxygen tanks before a resident left the facility to
ensure the portable oxygen tanks were full and working properly. The DON stated the incident of Resident
#1 running out of oxygen at his appointment was a huge learning lesson for the facility because it had never
happened. The DON stated they updated the procedures to ensure that it did not happen again. The
Assistant Administrator stated they prioritized in-servicing all dayshift staff since that was when resident
appointments took place; however, the training was ongoing to include all staff before the start of their
shifts. The DON stated not ensuring residents received adequate oxygen at all times could place them at
risk of inadequate oxygen and death. In an interview on 10/31/25 at 12:51 PM, CNA D stated she worked at
the facility since August 2025. She stated she escorted Resident #1 to his dental appointment on 10/29/25.
CNA D stated she and the nurse checked Resident #1's portable oxygen tank before leaving the facility and
it was full. She stated they left the facility at about 8:00 AM, and Resident #1 was fine during the ride to his
appointment. She stated his appointment time was 9:00 AM; however, they waited a long time for the
resident to be called back. CNA D stated after waiting at the clinic and waiting for transportation to pick
them back up, it was 1:00 PM. CNA D stated they were on the van returning to the nursing facility when
Resident #1 stated he could not feel any oxygen coming out of his cannula. CNA D stated she checked,
and the oxygen was

very low, so she called ADON A, and they were told to pull over and call 911. She stated Resident #1 was
still able to talk but she could tell that he was having a hard time breathing. CNA D stated Resident #1
remained conscious until the EMTs arrived and transported him to the local hospital. She stated she
escorted a lot of residents on appointments and that was the first time a resident ran out of oxygen. CNA D
stated the following day she was in-serviced on oxygen care, which included a new procedure to take an
extra portable oxygen tank on appointments with residents who were on continuous oxygen. CNA D stated
the aides knew to check oxygen tanks to make sure they were full and to report any issues to the nurse.
She stated the aides were not allowed to change or adjust the oxygen equipment. In an observation and
interview on 10/31/25 at 3:08 PM, Resident #1 stated he had just returned to the facility from the hospital
and felt better. Resident #1 stated he was admitted to the hospital for 2 days because they found that he
also had pneumonia. Resident #1 stated he did not feel any symptoms of pneumonia while at the facility. He
stated he resided at the facility for about 5 months and had never run out of oxygen at any time. Resident
#1 stated he was at his dental appointment for a long time because the VA was slow. He stated he was fine
while waiting at the appointment; however, on the way back to the facility, he remembered feeling like he
could not breathe, and he let the aide know. Resident #1 stated he tried to remain calm, but it was scary not
being able to breathe. He stated he felt himself blacking out before hearing 911 arrive, and that was all he
could recall. Observation of Resident #1 revealed he was wearing a nasal cannula that was connected to
an oxygen concentrator set on 3 lpm, and the resident showed no signs of respiratory distress. Review of
the facility's policy titled Oxygen Administration, undated, revealed in part the following: PurposeThe
purpose of this procedure is to provide guidelines for safe oxygen administration. Preparation1. Verify that
there is a physician's order for this procedure2. Assemble the equipment and supplies as needed.Further
review of this document reflected it did not address transporting residents on continuous oxygen therapy.
The non-compliance was identified as past non-compliance (PNC). The Immediate Jeopardy began on
10/29/25 and ended on 10/30/25. The facility had corrected the non-compliance before the state's
investigation began. The facility took the following actions to correct the non-compliance prior to the survey:
Record review of a document provided by the Assistant Administrator titled AD HOC QA, dated 10/30/25,
reflected an IDT meeting was held to discuss the failure and implement interventions. Record review of an
in-service titled Transporting Residents on Oxygen, dated 10/30/25, reflected all staff, who were
responsible for preparing residents and escorting them on appointments/outings, had been educated by
ADON A on ensuring that residents receiving continuous oxygen therapy were transported with an extra
portable oxygen tank. The education was ongoing to include all staff. Record review of an in-service titled
Oxygen Tanks, dated 10/30/25, reflected all staff, who were responsible for preparing residents and
escorting them on appointments/outings, had been educated by ADON A on ensuring that residents
receiving oxygen therapy had oxygen tanks that were full and working properly. The education was ongoing
to include all staff. Record review of an in-service titled Appointment Scheduling and Dashboard, dated
10/30/25, reflected central supply staff, ADON A, ADON B, and ADON C were all educated on monitoring
appointments to ensure that residents who were on continuous oxygen therapy left the facility with a
second regulator. In an interview on 10/31/25 at 10:43 AM, ADON A stated a chart audit was completed on
all residents receiving oxygen therapy to ensure they had orders and care plans with appropriate
intervention in place. Record review of a document provided by the Assistant Administrator titled Order
Listing Report (O2), dated 10/30/25, reflected the facility had 20 residents receiving oxygen therapy, with 3
being on continuous oxygen therapy. Observation on 10/31/25 at 3:00 PM of the facility's oxygen closet
revealed there were 36 extra
