Honor the resident's right to a dignified existence, self-determination, communication, and to exercise his or her rights. **NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on observation, interview, and record review the facility failed to treat each resident with respect and dignity for 1 of 4 residents (Resident #3) reviewed for resident rights.* The ADON did not knock on Resident #3's room door prior to entering the room. This failure could place residents at risk for decreased quality of life.Findings included:Record review of a face sheet dated 09/16/25 indicated Resident #3 was a [AGE] year-old male admitted on [DATE]. His diagnoses included osteomyelitis (an infection in a bone) of the right ankle and foot, peripheral vascular disease (blood circulation disorder that causes the blood vessels outside of the heart and brain to narrow, block, or spasm), atrial fibrillation (a type of irregular heartbeat), systolic congestive heart failure (a condition in which the heart's main pumping chamber (left ventricle) is weak), cirrhosis of liver (a condition in which healthy tissue is replaced with scar tissue), chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (a lung disease that blocks airflow making it difficult to breathe), type 2 diabetes mellitus (a chronic condition that affects the way the body processes blood sugar), and Alzheimer's disease (progressive disease that destroys memory and other important mental functions).Record review of the quarterly MDS dated [DATE] indicated Resident #3 had minimal difficulty hearing, he had clear speech, and he was able to make himself understood and understood others.During an observation on 09/15/25 at 10:45 a.m. the WCN was conducting wound care on Resident #3. The door to the room was closed. The ADON opened Resident #3'a door and did not knock prior to opening the door. The WCN had to yell out Patient Care to stop the ADON from entering the room. During an interview on 09/16/25 at 04:35 p.m. the WCN said staff were normally good about knocking on the door prior to opening and entering the resident room. She said she did not know why the ADON did not knock on the door. During an interview on 09/16/25 at 04:45 p.m. the ADON said she thought Resident #3 was in the dining room for an activity. She said she did not realize he was in the room having wound care done. She said staff should always knock on a resident's door before opening and entering the room. She said if the person knocking on the door could not hear the person in the room they should just open the door enough to hear the person in the room. During an interview on 09/17/25 at 02:25 p.m. Resident #3 said staff would sometimes forget to knock on the door before they entered. He said it did not bother him all the time but sometimes it did.During an interview on 09/17/25 at 04:10 p.m. the DON and the Administrator said they expected all staff to knock on the resident door before they entered. A policy related to staff knocking on resident doors was requested on 09/17/25 at 04:15 p.m. from the Administrator but not provided before exit.

Honor the resident's right to request, refuse, and/or discontinue treatment, to participate in or refuse to participate in experimental research, and to formulate an advance directive. **NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on observation, interview, and record review, the facility failed to ensure the right to formulate an advance directive was provided for 1 of 2 residents reviewed for resident rights. (Resident #5) * The facility did not have a valid Out of Hospital-Do Not Resuscitate (OOH-DNR) for Resident #5. This failure could place residents at risk of lifesaving procedures being performed against their wishes resulting in bruising, broken ribs, electrical shocking of the heart, having a tube placed in the throat and provided artificial breathing methods, and possibly being brought back to life in an unaware and unresponsive state. Findings included: Record review of physician orders for [DATE] indicated Resident #5 was a [AGE] year-old female admitted on [DATE]. Her diagnoses included respiratory failure (a serious condition that makes it difficult to breathe on your own) and Alzheimer's disease (progressive disease that destroys memory and other important mental functions). An order dated [DATE] indicated Resident #5 had an order for DNR. Record review of a quarterly MDS dated [DATE] indicated Resident #5 had minimal difficulty hearing, she had clear speech, she was able to make herself understood, she was able to understand others, and a BIMS of 4 out of 15 indicating she had severely impaired cognition. Record review of a Care Plan for Resident #5 indicated a care plan for Code Status: DNR with a problem start date of [DATE], a Long Term Goal Target date of [DATE], and edit date of [DATE]. One of the interventions with an Approach Start Date of [DATE] indicated advanced directives would be reviewed by care plan team quarterly and prn. Record review of the OOH-DNR form dated [DATE] for Resident #5 indicated Section A of the form was signed by Resident #5 and Section B of the form was signed by the RP. The bottom of the form indicated All persons who have signed above must sign below, acknowledging that this document has been properly completed. The bottom of the form was not signed by the resident or the RP. During an observation and interview on [DATE] at 10:28 a.m. Resident #5 was sitting up in her wheelchair in her room. She said she was doing fine. She said she did not want anyone doing CPR on her she just wanted to pass peacefully. During an interview on [DATE] at 04:10 p.m. the DON, LVN C, and the Administrator said an incomplete OOH-DNR would mean Resident #5 was a full code (staff would have to initiate CPR). The Administrator said hospice services obtained the DNR on Resident #5 and should have ensured it was complete but ultimately it was the facility's responsibility. The DON said the negative outcome would be the resident could have CPR preformed on them against their wishes. Record review of a Do Not Resuscitate Order policy revised [DATE] indicated: .2. A Do Not Resuscitate (DNR) order form must be completed and signed by the attending physician and resident (or resident's legal surrogate, as permitted by state law) and placed in the front of the resident's medical record.

Immediately tell the resident, the resident's doctor, and a family member of situations (injury/decline/room, etc.) that affect the resident. **NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on observation, interview and record review, the facility failed to consult with the resident's physician and notify the representative when there was a significant change in the resident's physical, mental, or psychosocial status (that is, a deterioration in health, mental, or psychosocial status in either life-threatening conditions or clinical complications) for 1 of 15 residents (Resident #15) reviewed for quality of care. The facility failed to notify the WC physician or physician of Resident #15's increase of pain during wound care observed on 09/16/25. This failure could place residents at risk of not receiving adequate and timely intervention and a decline in condition. Findings included: Record review of a face sheet dated 09/17/25 indicated Resident #15 was a [AGE] year-old female who was readmitted to the facility on [DATE]. Her diagnosis included Alzheimer's disease, osteoporosis (disease that weakens bones) with current pathological fracture and diabetes (too much sugar in the blood). Record review of a quarterly MDS assessment dated [DATE] indicated Resident #15 had a BIMS score of 99 and was unable to complete the BIMS. Resident #15 had memory problems with short term and long-term memories. The MDS indicated the number of unstageable pressure ulcers due to coverage of wound bed by slough (dead or non-viable tissue) and/or eschar (dead tissue) was 1 and indicated no other pressure ulcers. Record review of the care plan dated 9/12/25 indicated Resident #15 had an actual wound measuring 1.4 cm x 1.1cm x 0.1cm. Medical device pressure stage 4 wound to the left lateral malleolus (ankle) 1.3 cm x 1.4 cm x 0.2 also and the left great toe plantar side (under side of the toe) 2.1 cm x 2. 1cm x UTD area is not open as of 09/11/25. Interventions included Treat as ordered by wound doctor, daily dressing change by nursing, and weekly skin checks. Record review of the physician's orders dated September 2025 indicated Resident #15 had treatments of Wound left lateral malleolus (ankle): clean with wound cleaner or NS apply medical honey to wound bed, cover with alginate, paint peri-wound with betadine and cover with dry dressing daily with start date 09/04/25. Wound plantar side left great toe -- clean area with wound cleaner or NS paint with betadine apply betadine-soaked gauze to wound bed and cover with dry dressing daily with start date 09/04/25. Left heel: paint with betadine and leave open to air daily with start date 09/02/25. The orders included acetaminophen-codeine tablet; 300-30 mg; 1; oral at bedtime; and acetaminophen-codeine tablet; 300-30 mg; 1; oral every 8 hours as needed. Record review of the progress noted in the electronic medical record dated 08/28/25 indicated Resident #15 had 2 new unstageable wounds that were covered by the cast. The wound doctor identified these medical device pressure ulcers and are unstageable at this time. Wound #1 left lateral malleolus 4cm x 4cm x <0.1cm wound bed has 50% slough (yellow or white tissue consists of dead cells), 50% granulation (new tissue), mild serous exudate (drainage) noted, peri-wound (around the wound) intact. Notified wound doctor received new orders clean with wound cleaner or normal saline, paint peri-wound with betadine, cover wound bed with medical - honey, apply calcium alginate and cover with dry dressing daily and PRN.Wound #2 -- Left great toe plantar side clean with wound cleaner or normal saline, paint with betadine daily cover with dry dressing monitor for area opening. Wound measures 2.0cm x1.5cm area is not open at this time. Unstageable with eschar (dead skin). Record review of nurse notes for 9/16/25 to 9/17/25 reflected no indication of physician or WC physician being notified of increase with Resident #15 pain level. During an observation and interview on 9/16/25 at 10:15 a.m. the WCN was preparing to perform wound care to Resident #15. She donned gown and gloves and said Resident #15 was in EBP. She went into the room and prepared the resident for wound care providing privacy, and she spoke Spanish to Resident #15. #1 The WCN performed wound care for the area on coccyx (the end of the spine).

the coccyx wound with wound cleanser and painted around the wound with betadine and applied collagen to the wound bed, covered with dry dressing. She performed as needed glove change and hand sanitization for Resident #15 wound on her coccyx. The WCN was removing the boot (a medical device that prevent pressure and prevents movement of the ankle) that covered her left foot and extended up her calf). Resident#15 hollered out Oh and Wound Care nurse was still trying to remove the boot. The WCN said she never cries out like this. Resident #15 was grimacing and moaned out, Surveyor asked the ADON to ask her if she was in pain and the resident said her pain was so, so. The WCN removed the boot off. #2 Resident #15 relaxed while the WCN removed her gloves and cleaned her hands with sanitizer and applied new gloves and removed the dressing to the ankle wound and removed gloves, hand sanitizer then donned new gloves. She cleaned the wound from inside out with the wound cleanser. She removed her gloves and donned new gloves without hand sanitizer,. applied medical honey to wound bed, covered with alginate, painted peri-wound with betadine and covered with dry dressing. #3 The WCN changed gloves with no hand hygiene performed and applied new gloves. Then she went to remove the dressing on the left great toe, and Resident #15 began to holler out again. The WCN said Resident #15 does not normally have pain like this. The WCN said the pain is new, and she kept performing wound care. When the WCN removed Resident #15 dressing to left toe, Resident #15 quit crying out and relaxed., WCN changed her gloves with no hand hygiene and donned new gloves, cleaned the wound with wound cleanser and applied betadine-soaked gauze and covered with dry dressing. Resident #15 yelled out again when new dressing was applied to great left toe. During an interview on 9/16/25 at 10:45 a.m., the WCN said her yelling out was very different. She said normally the resident just doesn't like to be turned. She said she will report changes to the nurse, and she does not call the physician or wound care physician. During an observation on 9/16/25 at 10:50 a.m., the WCN was walking to Resident #15 room and said the charge nurse was going to medicate her for the increased pain. During an interview on 9/17/25 at 7:55 a.m., the Administrator said she spoke to the nursing staff about not stopping the treatment and medicating the residents. The Administrator said the nurses just leave notes for the primary physician to see and when he makes rounds, he would see it. During an interview on 9/17/25 at 8:33 a.m., the DON said WCN had reported an increase in her pain with Resident #15. The DON said the nurses should have called the wound care physician. During an interview on 9/17/25 at 10:28 a.m., the WC physician said he had not been notified of the increase of pain for Resident #15. He said the facility would need to notify him or the primary physician if there was a change in pain level with the residents. He said it could indicate infection or changes in the wound.

Prevent the use of unnecessary psychotropic medications or use medications that may restrain a resident's ability to function. **NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on interview and record review, the facility failed to ensure each resident's drug regimen was free from unnecessary psychotropic medications (is a medication used: without adequate indication for its use) for 2 of 8 residents (Residents #1 and #37) reviewed for unnecessary medications.* The facility did not have appropriate diagnoses for Resident #1's Risperdal (antipsychotic) and bupropion (antidepressant) and #37. * The facility did not have appropriate diagnoses for Resident #37's duloxetine (antidepressant). This failure could place residents at risk for unintended, harmful events attributed to the use of a medication without the appropriate indication.Findings included: 1. Record review of a face sheet dated 09/15/25 indicated Resident #1 was a [AGE] year-old female admitted on [DATE]. Her diagnoses included bipolar disorder (mental disorder associated with episodes of mood swings ranging from depressive lows to manic highs), chronic obstructive pulmonary disease ((COPD) a lung disease that blocks airflow making it difficult to breathe), depression (mental illness that negatively affects how you feel, the way you think and how you act), anxiety disorder (persistent and excessive worry that interferes with daily activities), malaise, and herpes viral infection (a viral infection caused by the herpes simplex virus). Record review of September 2025 physician orders indicated Resident #1 had the following medications with no indications for use:* Risperdal (risperidone) 1 mg daily at bedtime; and* bupropion 100mg daily. 2. Record review of physician orders for September 2025 indicated Resident #37 was a [AGE] year-old female admitted on [DATE]. Her diagnoses included type 2 diabetes (a chronic condition that affects the way the body processes blood sugar), atherosclerotic heart disease of native coronary artery (a condition where the blood vessels become narrowed and hardened due to buildup of fats in the blood vessel wall), atrial fibrillation (a type of irregular heartbeat), fracture of head of left femur (broken bone of the left upper leg), chronic kidney disease stage 3 (a disease or condition impairs kidney function, causing kidney damage), intestinal obstruction (a blockage that prevents food or liquid from passing through the small or large intestine), chronic pain, hypertension (a condition in which the force of the blood against the artery walls is too high), anxiety disorder (persistent and excessive worry that interferes with daily activities), and osteomyelitis (an infection in a bone). Record review of September 2025 physician orders indicated Resident #5 had duloxetine 30 mg daily with no indications for use. During a record review and interview on 09/17/25 at 04:00 p.m. LVN C acknowledged the orders were missing diagnoses for the medications on Residents #1 and # 37's orders. She said it was the CN responsibility to put the diagnoses with the psychotropic medications. During an interview on 09/17/25 at 04:10 p.m. the DON and the Administrator said they expected the diagnoses to be placed on the orders when they are written. A policy regarding indication for use for medications was requested on 09/17/25 at 04:15 p.m. from the Administrator but was not provided before exit.

Ensure each resident receives an accurate assessment.
Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on observation, interview, and record review, the facility failed to ensure the assessments accurately reflected the resident's status for 2 of 18 residents reviewed for accuracy of assessments. (Residents #13 & #15) 1. The facility failed to ensure Resident #13's most recent quarterly assessment captured the resident's daily Aspirin as an antiplatelet. 2. The facility failed to ensure Resident #15's most recent quarterly assessment captured the current number of unstageable pressure ulcer as 2 unstageable pressure ulcers. These failures could place the residents at risk of not receiving the appropriate care and services. Findings included:
Residents Affected - Few
1. Record review of a face sheet dated 09/17/25 indicated Resident #13 was a [AGE] year-old female who was readmitted to the facility on [DATE]. Her diagnoses included a history of pulmonary embolism (a condition in which one or more arteries in the lungs become blocked by a blood clot) and dementia (a group of thinking and social symptoms that interfere with daily functioning). Record review of a quarterly MDS assessment dated [DATE] indicated Resident #13 had a BIMS score of 4 indicating she had severely impaired cognition, she was dependent for most ADLs and was taking an anticoagulant medication. Record review of a care plan last revised 08/13/25 indicated Resident #13 was at risk for bleeding and bruising secondary to use of a blood thinning medication. The goal indicated Resident #13 would not have any open areas or uncontrolled bleeding secondary to use of blood thinning medications. Record review of a physician order dated September 2025 indicated Aspirin-enteric coated 81mg 1 tablet orally once a day for diagnosis of ischemic heart disease (damage or disease in the heart's major blood vessels). During an observation on 09/15/25 at 8:48 a.m., Resident #13 was lying in bed with her call light in reach. She was unable to answer questions. During a telephone interview on 09/17/25 at 2:06 p.m., the MDS Nurse said that she started completing MDS assessments for the facility on 08/28/25. She said she used the RAI manual for coding all MDS. She said she was never formally trained on completing MDS but received most of her training in 2013 over the phone with an MDS consultant. She said she did view webinars for updates and changes in MDS and RAI manual. She said she worked remotely and had never actually visited the facility or assessed a facility resident in person. She said she reviewed Resident #13's most recent quarterly assessment and her medications and the MDS was coded incorrectly for anticoagulant because Aspirin was not classified as an anticoagulant it was classified as an antiplatelet. She said the DON was responsible for reviewing her coding in all MDS and correcting before submission to CMS. She said the possible negative outcome of an incorrectly coded MDS could be an inaccurate care plan for the residents. During an interview on 09/17/25 at 4:25 p.m., the DON said the MDS Nurse for the facility was out of the country, so MDS assessments were currently being done remotely. He said he expected MDS to be coded as outlined in the RAI manual. He said he reviewed all MDS and had missed that Aspirin was coded as an anticoagulant when it should have been coded as an antiplatelet for Resident #13. He said he was responsible for reviewing all MDS and approving them. He said he needed to review all MDS more carefully. He said the possible negative outcome of an incorrectly coded MDS could be an inaccurate care plan.

Record review of a face sheet dated 09/17/25 indicated Resident #4 was a [AGE] year-old-female readmitted on [DATE] with a diagnoses of pressure ulcer (a localized area of skin damage that develops when prolonged pressure is applied to the body), history of malignant (cancerous) neoplasm (tumor) of colon, and skin changes due to chronic exposure to radiation (a cancer treatment that uses high-energy rays to damage and kill cancer cells). Record review of the quarterly MDS assessment dated [DATE] indicated Resident #4 had a BIMS score of 15 indicating her cognition was intact, required substantial/maximal assistance with bed mobility, and had a stage 4 pressure ulcer. Record review of a physician's order for Resident #4 dated 08/15/25 indicated to clean the wound to the coccyx with wound cleanser, apply betadine to peri wound, apply wound gel to wound bed, apply collagen to wound bed, and cover with dry dressing daily and as needed.

abdominal wall to divert stool from the colon (large intestine) to an external pouch) and a suprapubic catheter (a thin, flexible tube inserted through a small incision in the lower abdomen to drain urine from the bladder). During an observation and interview on 09/16/25 at 9:00 a.m., the Wound Care Nurse gowned outside the room and entered without gloves. She adjusted the privacy curtain and donned gloves without washing or sanitizing her hands. She assisted Resident #4 to roll to her left side. The Wound Care Nurse changed her gloves without performing hand hygiene. Resident #4 had 3 visible wounds which included a sacral wound approximately fist size had a pink wound bed, a wound to her right leg was approximately dime size with a pink wound bed at the right lower buttock crease and another wound to the right leg approximately nickel size with a pink wound bed. The Wound Care Nurse said all three wounds were part of the original coccyx wound, and the areas opened and closed frequently. Surrounding the wounds was redness extending to the left buttocks and down the right leg. The Wound Care Nurse cleansed each wound with a wound cleanser and patted them dry with gauze. The Wound Care Nurse then performed hand hygiene and changed gloves. She then applied wound gel to each wound using the same wooden spoon. She applied collagen to each wound. She covered each wound with a dry dressing. She then applied betadine to all reddened areas surrounding the wound and left resident on her left side with a fan on to dry the betadine. She said the betadine would sit for 30 minutes with the fan blowing the area. During an observation at 09/16/25 at 9:40 a.m., the Wound Care Nurse sanitized her hands, gowned and gloved and turned off the fan and repositioned the Resident #4 for comfort. During an interview on 09/17/25 at 4:20 p.m., the Wound Care Nurse said that during Resident #4's wound care she should not have used the same wooden spoon to apply wound gel to her 3 sperate open areas. She said she should have washed her hands or performed hand hygiene with glove changes. She said she had been the Wound Care Nurse at the facility for 1 year and had gotten her wound care certification 2 years ago. She said she also received additional training every week from the wound care doctor. She said the possible negative outcome for not performing hand hygiene and using the same wooden spoon to apply wound gel to all three separate areas of the wound could be cross contamination of the wounds and increased exposure to possible infection. During an interview on 09/17/25 at 4:20 p.m. the DON said he expected all nurses to follow facility policy and protocol regarding infection control. He said the Wound Care Nurse should perform hand hygiene with all glove changes and use a new utensil to apply wound gel to each wound. He said the possible result on not observing infection control protocol could be cross contamination of the wounds and increased risk of wound infections. 3. Record review of a face sheet dated 09/17/25 indicated Resident #15 was a [AGE] year-old female who was readmitted to the facility on [DATE]. Her diagnoses included Alzheimer's disease, osteoporosis (disease that weakens bones) with current pathological fracture (fracture could be caused by disease process and diabetes (too much sugar in the blood). Record review of a quarterly MDS assessment dated [DATE] indicated Resident #15 had a BIMS score of 99 and was unable to complete the BIMS. Resident #15 had memory problems with short term and long-term memories. The MDS indicated the number of unstageable pressure ulcers due to coverage of wound bed by slough (yellow or white tissue contained dead cells) and/or eschar (black tissue dead cells) was 1 and indicated no other pressure ulcers.
