1. The facility failed to obtain a consent for Resident #46 to wear a wander guard.
2. The facility failed to obtain a consent for Resident #49 to wear a wander guard.
This failure placed residents at risk of unnecessary restriction of their freedom of movement and diminished
quality of life.
The findings included:
1. Record review of Resident #46's admission record, dated 3/20/25 revealed a [AGE] year-old female
admitted to the facility on [DATE] with diagnoses that included dementia (impaired ability to remember,
think, or make decisions that interferes with doing everyday activities), cognitive communication deficit, and
generalized anxiety disorder.
Record review of Resident #46's annual MDS assessment dated [DATE] revealed the resident had severely

her left ankle. CNA I stated the wander guard could not be removed unless it was cut off. CNA I stated once
it was cut off they would need a new one. The Resident was not able to be interviewed.
During an interview on 3/20/25 at 10:44 a.m. the DON stated they did not get consent from the resident's or
their representatives for a wander guard. The DON stated they obtain an order, care plan it, inform the
resident or RP and do not document that they notified the family they would be placing a wander guard on
the resident.
During an interview on 3/21/25 at 9:11 a.m. an assistant for a potential legal guardian for Resident #46
stated they did not have legal guardianship of the resident and were in the investigation stage of obtaining
guardianship and did not deal with any of the resident's consents at that time.

discussion in the resident's medical record. The DON stated they recently updated the orders for Resident
#46's and Resident #49's wander guard because they were expired and needed new ones put on. The
DON stated they did not consider the wander guard a restraint because it only applied to the front door and
the residents could go out the side doors if they wanted. The DON stated that was why the facility would try
to find another locked facility for the resident to go if they had wandering behaviors. The DON stated both
residents were aware they had a wander guard on that could not be removed and stated Resident #49
called it her ankle monitor.

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,
interviews, and record review, the facility failed to ensure the residents had the right to formulate an
advanced directive and determine the choice to receive or not receive CPR (cardiopulmonary resuscitation)
for 1 (Resident #22) of 8 residents reviewed for accuracy and completeness of clinical records.
The facility failed to ensure Resident #22's OOH DNR was signed by 2 witnesses.
This failure could affect any residents who have medical records and could result in misinformation about
professional care provided.
Findings included:
Record review of Resident #22's admission Record, dated [DATE], revealed a [AGE] year-old female
admitted on [DATE], and readmitted on [DATE] with diagnoses of dementia without behavioral disturbance
(a group of symptoms affecting memory, thinking, and social abilities, which interfere with daily life),
dysphagia (difficulty swallowing), pneumonitis (when air sacs in the lungs become inflamed due to irritant
substances and disturb the normal functioning of the lungs), anoxic brain damage (serious condition that
occurs when there is a complete lack of oxygen supply to the brain. This can happen when oxygen levels
drop to a dangerous level or when blood flow to the brain decreases to a threshold where brain cells begin
to die. Brain cells begin to die after approximately four minutes of oxygen deprivation. Anoxic brain injury
can cause permanent cognitive problem), and chronic kidney disease (a gradual loss of kidney function).
The admission record did not specify the resident's code status.
Record review of Resident #22's annual MDS assessment, dated [DATE], revealed the resident had
severely impaired cognition for daily decision making.
Record review of Resident #22's care plan, updated [DATE], revealed the resident had elected a DNR
status with interventions of Do Not Resuscitate in the event of cardiac arrest, provide advanced directive
education and support in directive completion, and update the resident's chart to reflect the elected code
status, and staff must be aware of the code status election.
Record review of Resident #22's order summary, dated [DATE], revealed an order for DNR with a start date
of [DATE], and no end date.
Record review of Resident #22's OOH DNR revealed it was signed by the legal guardian on [DATE], by 1
witness on [DATE], and the physician on [DATE]. A second witness signature was missing.
During an interview on [DATE] at 11:24 a.m. the SW stated she was responsible for filling out the DNR
forms or helping families to complete them. The SW stated she helped complete this form. The SW stated
they forgot to get a 2nd witness signature on Resident #22's DNR. The SW stated the missing signature
was a mistake and the DNR was not valid. The SW stated they may have to perform CPR if the resident
needed it and would not honor the legal guardians wishes.
During an interview on [DATE] at 11:49 a.m. the DON stated Resident #22's DNR was not valid because it
was missing 2 witness signatures. The DON stated Resident #22 would be full code until the form

prescribed-Olanzapine and Document side-effects: drowsiness, dry mouth, blurred vision, constipation,
edema, extrapyramidal symptoms, urinary retention, stiff or tight muscles, tardive dyskinesia (a chronic
movement disorder that can develop as a side effect of long-term use of certain medications, primarily
antipsychotic drugs).
Record review of Resident #90's, PASSR screening dated 2/7/25, noted an answer of 0 (No) in section
C0100 Mental Illness in response to the question, Is there evidence or an indicator this is an individual with
a Mental Illness?
In an interview on 03/19/25 at 01:59 PM with MDS Coordinator C and MDS Coordinator D, MDS
Coordinator D stated, When residents come here, they should have their PASRR included with their
admission paperwork. MDS Coordinator D stated the facility uploads it and sends a copy to the local
authority. MDS Coordinator D stated If the level one screening is negative the local authority acknowledges
they receive it. MDS Coordinator D stated If the level one screening is positive, the local authority comes to
the facility and assesses the resident, and attends the care plan meetings. MDS Coordinator D stated If it is
negative there is no follow up. MDS Coordinator D stated If the facility notices a resident has a disability,
they do another level one screening and repeat the process. MDS Coordinator D stated The clinical team
suggests if a resident is showing signs of disability, and The clinical team would include staff who are hands
on with the resident including the ADON, the social worker, and the activity director, and They would be the
ones to suggest if the resident is showing signs of behaviors. MDS Coordinator D They rely on the PASSR
screening from where the resident has been, like the hospital. When asked is it correct if the PASRR
assessment should be left as 'No' if a resident has bipolar disorder, MDS Coordinator D stated Most of the
time the PASRR says 'No', and they submit the hospital PASRR to the local authority and the MDS
assessment. MDS Coordinator D stated in her experience if a resident had bipolar it wasn't enough to get
services, because they don't have behaviors. When asked why Resident #90 was receiving an
antipsychotic without behaviors, MDS Coordinator D stated Maybe in the past she had a behavior. MDS
Coordinator D stated They are going to deny services for bipolar, MDS Coordinator D stated They have not
submitted Resident #90's information to the local authority yet, and they have a 90 day period to do so.
MDS Coordinator D stated she will submit the PASRR from the hospital to the local authority. When asked if
the level one screening needed to be corrected before being submitted to the local authority MDS
Coordinator D stated The PASRR from the hospital will not be updated. When asked what the risk to the
resident was of putting 'No' on the level one screening if they have a mental illness, MDS Coordinator D
stated she has never experienced a negative effect with a resident if they answer 'No' on the level one
PASRR when the resident has a mental illness, because if they have behaviors they do mental screenings.
When asked what the risk to the resident was if they don't mark 'Yes' to mental illness if a resident has
bipolar disorder, MDS Coordinator D stated They have never had an issue with a resident because they
have psych on the premises at the facility.
In an interview on 03/19/25 at 04:22 PM with the DON, the DON stated she would talk to the MDS nurses
about training since the residents have a mental illness diagnosis on admission but the hospital PASRR
assessment is negative and is not getting updated before being sent to the local authority who is then not
coming out to evaluate the resident. The DON stated she would educate them on getting the PASRR fixed
moving forward especially if the residents are on medications. The DON stated, 'All residents get psych
services, but moving forward they will make sure they take care of the PASRR correctly. The DON stated
she wasn't sure what the risk to the resident was of a negative level one PASRR with evidence of a mental
illness diagnosis, but stated The purpose of PASRR is to get residents services if they have a diagnosis of
mental illness.

prevent accidents.
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
observation, interview, and record review, the facility failed to ensure the resident environment remained as
free of accident hazards as was possible for 1 of 24 residents (Resident #89) reviewed for accidents and
hazards:
The facility failed to ensure Resident #89 did not have a pair of scissors, a large pair of nail clippers, and a
disposable razor in his room.
This failure could place residents at risk of harm or injury and contribute to avoidable accidents and a
decline in health.
The findings included:
Record review of Resident #89's face sheet dated 3/19/25 revealed a [AGE] year-old male admitted to the
facility on [DATE] with diagnoses that included gastro-esophageal reflux disease with esophagitis (a chronic
condition where stomach acid frequently flows back into the esophagus causing inflammation and
irritation), duodenitis without bleeding (inflammation of the first part of the small intestine without
gastrointestinal bleeding), dysphagia, oropharyngeal phase (difficulty swallowing in the mouth and throat),
and cognitive communication deficit (difficulties with communication caused by impairments in cognitive
function such as attention, memory, problem-solving, and executive functioning.)
Record review of Resident #89's most recent quarterly MDS assessment dated [DATE] revealed the
resident was moderately cognitively impaired for daily decision-making skills.
Record review of Resident #89's comprehensive care plan with revision date 1/27/25 revealed the resident
was at risk for impaired cognitive function/dementia or impaired thought processes, with interventions that
included to use simple directive sentences when communicating with the resident.
Record review of Resident #89's Functional Abilities assessment dated [DATE] revealed the resident
needed Partial/moderate assistance with personal hygiene including shaving.

large a disposable razor on the bedside table. Further observation revealed a large pair of nail clippers
under the left side of the resident's bed. Resident #89 stated, he last used the disposable razor to shave
himself two days ago and would sometimes cut his own nails with the nail clippers. Resident #89 stated he
last trimmed his fingernails about 10 days ago. Resident #89 stated he had purchased the disposable razor.
During an observation and interview on 3/19/25 at 8:02 a.m., revealed Resident #89 was observed with a
pair of yellow handle scissors, the same large nail clippers, and the disposable razor on the resident's
bedside table. Resident #89 stated he used the large nail clippers to trim his own nails because sometimes
they (staff) don't have nail clippers. Resident #89 stated he used the yellow handle scissors to trim his
moustache. Resident #89 stated he last used the yellow handle scissors like a week ago.

Provide appropriate care for residents who are continent or incontinent of bowel/bladder, appropriate
catheter care, and appropriate care to prevent urinary tract infections.
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
observation, interview, and record review, the facility failed to ensure a resident who was incontinent of
bladder and bowel received appropriate treatment and services to prevent urinary tract infections for 2 of 5
residents (Resident #49 and Resident #91) reviewed for incontinent care:
1. The facility failed to ensure CNA I and CNA N properly cleaned Resident #31's vaginal area, catheter
tube, and buttock area during incontinent care.
2. The facility failed to ensure Resident #91's indwelling urinary catheter bag was not on the floor.
These deficient practices could place residents at-risk for infection and skin break down due to improper
care practices.
The findings included:
1. Record review of Resident #49's admission record, dated 3/20/25 revealed a [AGE] year-old female
admitted to the facility on [DATE] and readmitted on [DATE] with diagnoses that included type 2 diabetes
mellitus (happens when the body cannot use insulin correctly and sugar builds up in the blood),
hydronephrosis (when urine builds up in a kidney), obstructive and reflux uropathy (is when your urine can't
flow (either partially or completely) through your ureter, bladder, or urethra due to some type of obstruction),
and hypertension (high blood pressure).
Record review of Resident #49's quarterly MDS assessment dated [DATE] revealed the resident had
moderately impaired cognition for daily decision making. Section H showed the resident had an indwelling
catheter and was always incontinent of bowel.
Record review of Resident #49's comprehensive care plan, revision date 4/25/22 and 1/22/25, revealed the
resident had has bowel/bladder incontinence related to muscle weakness, activity intolerance, impaired
mobility, physical limitations and recent CVA with interventions to check as required for incontinence, wash,
rinse, and dry perineum, change clothing PRN after incontinence episodes. The resident had Foley catheter
related to diagnosis of obstructive and reflux uropathy.
Record review of Resident #49's physician's orders dated 3/18/25 revealed an order for catheter care every
shift and monitor for urethral site for signs and symptoms of skin breakdown, pain/discomfort, usual odors,
urine characteristics or secretions, catheter pulling causing tension every shift with a start date of 1/8/24,
and no end date.
During on observation on 3//20/25 at 11:25 a.m. revealed CNA I and CNA N performed peri care and

Residents Affected - Few
During a joint interview on 3/20/25 at 11:35 a.m. CNA N stated she needed 6 wipes to clean the resident's
vaginal area. CNA I stated she did not hand CNA N 6 wipes to clean her vaginal area but thought CNA N
used a folding technique where she used a new clean area of the wipe each time she wiped the resident.
CNA N stated she thought she used the folding technique and did not notice if she crumpled the wipe or
not. CNAN stated she forgot to change her gloves and should have changed them if they were soiled. CNA
N stated they should not go from a dirty to a clean area to prevent germs from the soiled brief from getting
on the new clean brief.
During an interview on 3/20/25 at 5:30 p.m. the DON stated a wipe could be used once, flipped, and used
again before being tossed. The DON stated crumpled wipes were messy and made it hard to know what
part of the wipe had been used. The DON stated staff were expected to change their gloves and perform
hand hygiene when handling a clean brief to prevent cross contamination from the dirty brief.
2. Record review of Resident #91's face sheet dated 3/20/25 revealed an [AGE] year-old female admitted to
the facility on [DATE] with diagnoses that included urinary tract infection, obstructive and reflux uropathy
(condition in which the normal flow of urine is blocked leading to kidney damage; uropathy refers to kidney
damage caused by backward flow of urine from the bladder into the ureters and kidney), and chronic kidney
disease stage 3 (moderate decrease in kidney function).
Record review of Resident #91's admission MDS assessment, dated 3/10/25 revealed the resident was
moderately cognitively impaired for daily decision-making skills and utilized an indwelling urinary catheter.
Record review of Resident #91's Order Summary Report dated 3/20/25 revealed the following:
- MONITOR INDWELLING CATHETER OUTPUT every shift, with order date 3/12/25 and no end date.
Record review of Resident #91's comprehensive care plan with revision date 3/13/25 revealed the resident
had an indwelling urinary catheter related to obstructive uropathy with interventions that included to provide
catheter care every shift and as needed, measure urinary output, position catheter bag and tubing below
the level of the bladder.
During an observation on 3/21/25 at 9:53 a.m., revealed CNA F and CNA G were in Resident #91's room in
preparation for catheter/incontinent care. Resident #91 was observed lying in the bed placed in the lowest
position, and the indwelling urinary catheter tubing was observed on the right side of the bed with the
urinary catheter bag resting on the floor.
During a joint interview on 3/21/25 at 9:57 a.m., CNA F and CNA G acknowledged Resident #91's
indwelling urinary catheter bag was on the floor and should not have been. CNA F and CNA G stated they
were responsible for ensuring the indwelling urinary catheter bag was kept off the floor because it could
result in the resident getting an infection or the bag or tubing could be stepped on causing an injury.

Provide safe and appropriate respiratory care for a resident when needed.
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 that a resident who needs respiratory
care, including tracheostomy care and tracheal suctioning, was provided such care, consistent with
professional standards of practice, the comprehensive person-centered care plan, the resident's goals, and
preferences for 1 of 2 residents (Resident #9) reviewed for oxygen therapy:
Residents Affected - Few
Resident #9's oxygen concentrator filters were covered in a thick white/gray substance.
This failure could affect residents who received respiratory therapy and put them at risk for inadequate or
inappropriate amounts of oxygen delivery.
The findings included:
Record review of Resident #9's face sheet dated 3/20/25 revealed an [AGE] year-old male admitted to the
facility on [DATE] with diagnoses that included acute and chronic respiratory failure (a condition in which the
respiratory system fails to provide adequate oxygen to the blood or remove carbon dioxide from the body),
dementia (decline in cognitive function severe enough to interfere with daily life), and chronic obstructive
pulmonary disease (progressive lung disease characterized by persistent airflow limitation and respiratory
symptoms).
Record review of Resident #9's most recent quarterly MDS assessment dated [DATE] revealed the resident
was cognitively intact for daily decision-making skills and required oxygen treatments.
Record review of Resident #9's Order Summary Report dated 3/20/25 revealed the following:
- CHANGE O2 TUBING & HUMIDIFIER BOTTLE every night shift every Sunday, ensure humidifier & all
tubing are dated appropriately, with order date 9/11/24 and no end date
- CHECK & RECORD O2 SATURATION every shift related to ACUTE AND CHRONIC RESPIRATORY
FAILURE, with order date 2/22/24 and no end date
- O2 at 2-5 L/MIN VIA NC to Maintain sats above 92% every shift for O2 Dependent with order date 6/25/24
and no end date
Record review of Resident #9's comprehensive care plan with revision date 11/15/24 revealed the resident
had altered respiratory status/difficulty breathing related to acute and chronic respiratory failure with
interventions that included to provide oxygen as ordered.
During an observation and attempted interview on 3/19/25 at 7:55 a.m., Resident #9 was in the bed with
the oxygen concentrator operating via the nasal cannula. Resident #9 refused and was unwilling to answer
any Surveyor questions. The resident's oxygen concentrator had two rectangular filters on the right and left
side of the oxygen concentrator that appeared to be covered in a thick white/gray substance.
During an observation and attempted interview on 3/20/25 at 2:29 p.m., Resident #9 was in the bed with

the right and left side of the oxygen concentrator that appeared to be covered in a thick white/gray
substance.
During an observation and interview on 3/20/25 at 2:33 p.m., RN L stated she made room rounds of the
residents assigned to her, including Resident #9 at the beginning of her shift beginning at 6:00 a.m. RN L
acknowledged the resident received oxygen and had been using the oxygen concentrator. RN L was asked
by the State Surveyor about the filters to Resident #9's oxygen concentrator and initially could not find
them. RN L stated, I don't know if this concentrator has a filter. RN L then observed the two rectangular
filters on the left and right side of the oxygen concentrator and stated, this is what he is using for his source
of air, it looks like he could be breathing a lot of bacteria through his lungs, it's like dust and it's not good.
That's why we change our filters at home. RN L stated she had never checked the oxygen concentrator
filters and believed it was the responsibility of the Maintenance Director.
During an interview on 3/20/25 at 2:52 p.m., the Maintenance Director stated, the oxygen concentrators
were checked by assigned upper management referred to as ambassadors assigned to different halls. The
Maintenance Director stated he was assigned to the D hall as an ambassador and one of the duties was to
check the oxygen concentrators which included making sure the oxygen filters were clean, and the
humidifier canister and tubing were dated. The Maintenance Director stated, if he saw a problem he was
supposed to report it to the nurses. The Maintenance Director stated he had removed oxygen filters when
dirty and washed them. The Maintenance Director stated the HR Manager was the ambassador for the B
hall where Resident #9 resided.
During an interview on 3/20/25 at 3:04 p.m., the HR Manager stated she had been assigned the
ambassador for the B hall and one of the duties assigned to her was to check the oxygen concentrator and
ensure the humidifier canister and the tubing were dated. The HR Manager stated she did not like touching
the oxygen concentrator, but if something did not look right, she would report it to the nurse. The HR
Manager stated, the Maintenance Director already came to me because you (The State Surveyor) already
talked to him about it. I have never cleaned the (oxygen) filters. The HR Manager stated she had made
ambassador rounds earlier that morning in the B hall, including Resident #9's room, but revealed she had
only glanced at the room itself as the resident was not in the room at the time and probably at dialysis. The
HR Manager stated the DON and the Administrator had assigned upper management as ambassadors.
During an interview on 3/20/25 at 3:31 p.m., the DON stated it was her expectation that the upper
management staff assigned as ambassadors, as part of their duties, should be checking the oxygen
concentrator filters to ensure they were clean and if they were not, they were supposed to wash them. The
DON further stated, if the tubing on the oxygen concentrators needed to be addressed, the ambassadors
were not allowed to touch them because removing them could alter the oxygen settings on the
concentrator. The DON stated, if the ambassador missed it (the dirty oxygen concentrator filters) the nurses
should have caught it. The DON stated, dirty oxygen filters could alter the concentrator and could clog like
an air conditioning unit. The DON further stated, if the oxygen concentrator did not work properly, it could
cause the resident to lose oxygen saturation.
Record review of the facility policy and procedure titled, Oxygen Equipment, with revision date 5/2007,
revealed in part, .It is the policy of this facility to maintain all oxygen therapy equipment in a clean and
sanitary manner and to use disposable pre-filled humidifiers, tubing, masks and cannulas for residents
receiving oxygen. This equipment is to be discarded after use. The facility will maintain clean tanks,
connectors, and concentrators .Oxygen concentrator filters will be cleaned with

Provide safe, appropriate dialysis care/services for a resident who requires such services.
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 that residents who required dialysis
received such services, consistent with professional standards of practice for 1 of 3 residents (Resident #9)
reviewed for dialysis:
Residents Affected - Few
The facility did not maintain communication, coordination, and collaboration with the dialysis facility for
Resident #9.
This deficient practice could affect residents who received dialysis treatments and place them at risk for
complications and not receiving proper care and treatment to meet their needs.
The findings included:
Record review of Resident #9's face sheet dated 3/20/25 revealed an [AGE] year-old male admitted to the
facility on [DATE] with diagnoses that included end stage renal disease (condition in which the kidneys have
lost nearly all their function and can no longer effectively filter waste, excess fluids, and toxins from the
blood, resulting in dialysis or a kidney transplant), cognitive communication deficit (refers to difficulty with
communication that result from impairments in cognitive processes such as attention, memory,
problem-solving, organization, and executive function), dementia (decline in cognitive function severe
enough to interfere with daily life), and dependence on renal dialysis (medical treatment that performs the
function of the kidneys when they are no longer able to filter waste, excess fluids, and toxins from the blood
effectively).
Record review of Resident #9's most recent quarterly MDS assessment dated [DATE] revealed the resident
was cognitively intact for daily decision-making skills and required dialysis treatments.
Record review of Resident #9's Order Summary Report dated 3/20/25 revealed the following:
- DIALYSIS COMMUNICATION FORM TO BE COMPLETED AND FILED/SCANNED IN CHART ON
DIALYSIS DAYS, with order date 2/22/24 and no end date
- HEMODIALYSIS 3 times per WEEK EVERY Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday, with order date 5/17/24 and
no end date
Record review of Resident #9's comprehensive care plan with revision date 3/19/25 revealed the resident
had end stage renal disease and received dialysis treatments with interventions that included for dialysis
communication form to be completed and filed/scanned in chart on dialysis days.
Record review of Resident #9's Renal Dialysis Communication Forms revealed the form had three sections.
The top section of the Renal Dialysis Communication form, Facility Information Pre-Dialysis was supposed
to be completed by the facility staff. The middle section of the form, Dialysis Center Information was
supposed to be completed by the dialysis clinic while Resident #9 was at dialysis. The bottom portion of the
form, Facility Information Post-Dialysis was supposed to be completed by the facility staff upon Resident
#9's return from dialysis treatment.
Record review of Resident #9's Renal Dialysis Communication Forms for March 2025 revealed the

An attempt at an interview with Resident #9 on 3/19/25 at 7:55 a.m., and 3/20/25 at 2:29 p.m. were
unsuccessful as the resident refused or was unwilling to answer Surveyor questions.
During an interview on 3/21/25 at 11:47 a.m., RN L acknowledged Resident #9 went for dialysis treatments
on Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday. RN L stated she had provided Resident #9 with the Renal Dialysis
Communication form on 3/20/25 and had filled in the top portion of the form. RN L stated, we have had
issues with the dialysis clinic, because the sheets have been coming back blank. RN L further stated if the
form was not filled out by the dialysis clinic or the form did not return with the resident, we would reach out
to the dialysis clinic to get it. RN L stated, sometimes she would delegate the Medical Records Clerk to
obtain the information from the dialysis clinic, and she believed ADON A also followed up on the Renal
Dialysis Communication form. RN L acknowledged the Renal Dialysis Communication Form for Resident #9
provided on 3/20/25 was not filled out by the dialysis clinic and she gave ADON A the form to follow up with
the dialysis clinic. RN A stated the importance of the Renal Dialysis Communication form was to determine
if the resident had problems during dialysis or the dialysis clinic identified a change of condition or
requested a medication adjustment or lab analysis. RN A stated, that should be communicated to us.
During an interview on 3/21/25 at 11:59 a.m., the Medical Records Clerk stated, she received the Renal
Dialysis Communication Forms for every resident who received dialysis treatments. The Medical Records
Clerk acknowledged the form had three sections; the nurses fill in the top part, the patient then takes the
form with them, and then after dialysis they (the dialysis clinic) give the resident the form and when they get
here (to the facility) the form is returned to the nurse. The Medical Records Clerk stated, when the received
the form, it is not my responsibility to make sure they are filled out, but if I get one with missing information,
I notify the nurse. The Medical Records Clerk further stated she collected the Renal Dialysis
Communication Forms at the end of each month and was not aware the forms had to be uploaded as they
come. I have never been told I had to do it daily, it's a lot of paperwork.
During an interview on 3/21/25 at 12:41 p.m., ADON A acknowledged Resident #9 received dialysis
treatments on Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday. ADON stated, the nurses get busy and were aware the
Renal Dialysis Communication forms had to be filled in completely, but she was available to help. ADON A
stated, nurses are responsible, for when the sheets come back, they are responsible for getting the fax
number and send (back) to the dialysis clinic to make sure it is completed. ADON A stated the Medical
Records Clerk would be allowed to fax the Renal Dialysis Communication forms or call the dialysis clinic for
the nurses but preferred the nurses complete that task. The ADON stated the believed

the purpose of the Renal Dialysis Communication form was to track the resident's weight and follow up on
new medication orders or other recommendations requested by the dialysis clinic. ADON A stated, this is a
failure because the facility and the dialysis clinic are not on the same page and we should all be on the
same page. If we don't get the clinic to fill it out (the Renal Dialysis Communication forms), how would I
know if they dialyzed correctly or anything that might affect the resident physically. ADON A further stated
she depended on the dialysis clinic to fill in their portion of the form because that's how I get monthly
weights on the resident; we depend on the dialysis clinic to get us those weights. ADON A stated it was
ultimately the nurse's responsibility to ensure the forms were filled out completely.
During an interview on 3/21/25 at 1:09 p.m., the DON acknowledged Resident #9 received dialysis
treatments and nursing was responsible for ensuring the Renal Dialysis Communication forms were
completed. The DON stated, we can accept the missing information on the dialysis section (of the Renal
Dialysis Communication form), but we have to contact the dialysis clinic to get them to provide their portion
of the sheet. The DON further stated, obtaining the missing information had to be done as soon as
possible. The DON stated, the ADON was responsible for following up on the completion of the Renal
Dialysis Communication forms and the Medical Records Clerk was only responsible for uploading the forms
into the electronic record, but if the forms were missing documentation the Medical Records Clerk was
supposed to notify the nurse. The DON stated the Renal Dialysis Communication forms were important
because it communicated the condition of the resident while at dialysis and it helped the facility to monitor
weights for those residents who received dialysis.
Record review of the facility policy and procedure titled, Dialysis (Renal), Pre- and Post-Care, with revision
date 12/2023 revealed in part, .It is the policy of this facility to .Assess resident daily for function related to
renal dialysis .Participate in ongoing communication and collaboration with the dialysis facility regarding
dialysis care and services .Collaboration and Communication of Care .The care of the resident receiving
dialysis services will reflect ongoing communication, coordination, and collaboration between the nursing

Observation on 3/18/25 at 2:46 p.m. revealed Resident #66 sleeping in bed and a bottle of hemp gummies
and a bottle of blood flow supplements on the resident's bedside table to the right of the bed.
Residents Affected - Some
Observation and interview on 3/19/25 at 8:22 a.m. revealed Resident #66 sitting up in bed. Resident #66
stated he had a sleeping disorder and had been prescribed melatonin (a sleep aid) by the physician, but it
did not help. Resident #66 acknowledged the bottle of hemp gummies at the bedside and stated he
purchased them to help with his chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. Resident #66 stated he took the
blood flow supplement pills he purchased every morning for help with filtering the blood. Resident #66
stated he was not aware if staff knew he had the hemp gummies or the blood flow supplement pills, but will
talk to my doctor about using them.
During an observation and interview on 3/19/25 at 8:40 a.m., CNA F acknowledged Resident #66 had a
bottle of hemp gummies and a bottle of blood flow supplement pills at the bedside. CNA F stated she came
on shift at 6:00 a.m. and had made rounds of the resident rooms, including Resident #66's room. CNA F
stated making round consisted of ensuring the residents were clean and fall interventions were in place.
CNA F stated she was not aware of any residents being able to self-medicate, including Resident #66. CNA
F stated there should not be any medications left at a resident's bedside because all medications should be
prescribed by the doctor, and from my own understanding he (Resident #66) could overdose and not
realize how much he is taking.
During an observation and interview on 3/19/25 at 8:48 a.m., LVN K stated she had come onto her shift at
6:00 a.m. and made rounds of the resident's rooms, including Resident #66. LVN K acknowledged she had
seen Resident #66 earlier that morning sitting up in bed and watching television and had administered
Resident #66 his insulin. LVN K observed Resident #66 in bed and acknowledged the resident had a bottle
of hemp gummies and a bottle of blood flow supplement pills at the bedside. LVN K stated Resident #66
should not have had medications at the bedside and any medications received by the resident were
supposed to be prescribed by the doctor. LVN K stated, He (Resident #66) could have complications,
interactions with other medications and he could overdose with some of these, it's a risk.
During an interview on 3/19/25 at 4:09 p.m., the DON acknowledged the facility did not have any residents
who had been assessed to self-medicate or had expressed any interest in doing so. The DON further
stated, for the residents' safety, and for residents who had dementia or were forgetful, items such as
scissors, nail clippers, disposable razors, and medications were not supposed to be in the resident's
possession. The DON further stated, residents needed to be supervised for their safety. The DON stated,
the facility developed a system where facility management staff were assigned to make daily rounds to
specifically look out for things like that.
During a follow-up interview on 3/19/25 at 4:15 p.m., the DON stated Resident #66 had often ordered
things online and any medications he ordered were supposed to be kept for the resident until his discharge.
Record review of the facility policy and procedure, untitled and undated, revealed in part, .Medications

3. Observation on 3/20/25 at 4:48 p.m. revealed the nurse's medication cart was left unattended across
from the laundry room entrance door and next to the nurse's station, facing out into the hall with the nurse's
medication cart keys on the lock. LVN M was observed leaving the nurse's station and walked up to the
unlocked nurse's medication cart, locked the cart, and took the keys.
During an interview on 3/20/25 at 5:05 p.m., LVN M acknowledged she had left the nurse's medication cart
unlocked, and unattended with the keys left in the lock. LVN M stated, leaving the nurse's medication cart
unlocked and unattended was not acceptable because it was a safety issue, and anybody could get into the
medication cart and obtain access to medications. LVN M stated she was summoned to the nurse's station
to participate in an in-service training and forgot to lock the nurse's medication cart.
During an interview on 3/20/25 at 5:28 p.m., the DON stated it was her expectation for the medication carts
to remain locked when unattended as anybody could get in there, a resident could get in there, a family
member, there are narcotics in there and patients could take the medications that did not belong to them.

The DS did not take temperature for a container of green beans and a container of pasta on the service
well. The DS did not immediately write down the temperatures.
During an interview and observation on 3/20/25 at 4:46 p.m. the DS stated he could recall all the
temperatures he took later when he wrote them down. The DS stated he did not take the temperatures for
the alternate items because he knew they were hot, and the log did not contain an area for him to record
alternate items. The DS stated he should take the temperature of all the items he would serve that day and
then took the temperature for a container of green beans and a container of pasta.
During an interview on 3/21/25 at 1:39 p.m. the Administrator stated kitchen deliveries were usually
dropped off outside the kitchen, it could be difficult to simultaneously put everything away, and some items
maybe on the floor until put away. The Administrator stated he believed staff should be taking temperature
off all food prior to serving it and they could add to the temperature list if there was not a dedicated line on
the form.
Record review of an untitled document, dated March 2025, showed a list of items to record temperatures
on daily for breakfast, lunch and dinner. The dinner area had rows to document the temperature of the

Provide and implement an infection prevention and control program.
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 establish and maintain an infection control
program designed to provide a safe, sanitary, and comfortable environment and to help prevent the
development of communicable diseases and infections for 3 of 3 residents (Residents #22, Resident #49,
and Resident #147) reviewed for infection control.
Residents Affected - Some
1. The facility failed to ensure PTA O wore a gown while in providing care to resident #22 who was on EBP.
2. The facility failed to ensure CNA N performed hand hygiene and changed gloves during incontinent care
on Resident #49.
3. The facility failed to ensure ADON B used appropriate infection control principles, including hand
hygiene/glove changes during wound care.
These failures could affect residents who required assistance with incontinent care and wound care
treatments and could place residents at risk for cross contamination and infections.
The finding included:
1. Record review of Resident #22's admission Record, dated 03/19/25, revealed a [AGE] year-old female
admitted on [DATE], and readmitted on [DATE] with diagnoses of dementia without behavioral disturbance
(a group of symptoms affecting memory, thinking, and social abilities, which interfere with daily life),
dysphagia (difficulty swallowing), pneumonitis (when air sacs in the lungs become inflamed due to irritant
substances and disturb the normal functioning of the lungs), anoxic brain damage (occurs when there is a
complete lack of oxygen supply to the brain), muscle weakness and chronic kidney disease (a gradual loss
of kidney function).
Record review of Resident #22's annual MDS assessment, dated 2/5/25, revealed the resident had
severely impaired cognition for daily decision making.
Record review of Resident #22's care plan, updated 10/18/25, revealed the resident had a colostomy with
interventions to change colostomy bag and wafer as ordered and provide colostomy care every shift and as
needed per MD orders.
Record review of Resident #22's order summary, dated 3/18/25, revealed an order for enhanced barrier
precautions: PPE required for high resident contact care activities. Indication: colostomy, with a start date of
10/14/24 and no end date.
During an observation on 3/18/25 at 10:11 a.m. PTA O was in Resident #22's room brushing her hair and
then transferred her to her wheelchair. There was a small sign outside of Resident #22's room that stated
Resident #22 was on EBP. PTA O only had on gloves and no gown.
During an interview on 3/18/25 at 10:19 a.m. PTA O stated she was unsure what the sign outside of
Resident #22's room was for or what it meant.
During an interview on 3/19/25 at 4:23 p.m. the DON stated the signs outside the residents' rooms

Residents Affected - Some
were for residents who were on enhanced barrier precautions to remind staff to wear a gown and gloves.
The DON stated they would be required to wear a gown and gloves if they were providing direct care to a
resident who had a colostomy, wound, catheter, picc line, etc. The DON stated she had training with all staff
a few months ago to go over what the signs meant and what was required for EBP.
During a follow up interview on 3/21/25 at 11:57 a.m. PTA O stated the signs outside the residents' rooms
were to indicate they were on EBP, and staff needed to use a gown and gloves. PTA O stated she forgot
about the resident's colostomy when she was providing care and transferring Resident #22 on 3/18/25. PTA
O stated she had never paid attention to the signs before because she already knew what residents were
on EBP and required the gown and gloves. PTA O stated she was just getting Resident #22 into her chair
on 3/18/25 and helped her brush her hair before leaving the room. PTA O stated not using a gown for a
resident on EBP could place them at risk of infection.
Record review of a facility's Inservice titled Infection Control, dated 1/31/25, revealed one topic covered was
Enhanced Barrier Precautions- dressing, bathing, transferring, brief changes, toileting, peg tubes, IVs, linen
change, wound care. PTA O signed the in-service.

admitted to the facility with a stage 2 pressure ulcer to the sacral area with interventions that included to
administer treatments as ordered and monitor for effectiveness and use Enhanced Barrier Precautions.
Observation on 3/20/25 at 10:30 a.m., during wound care treatment, ADON A washed his hands in
Resident #147's bathroom sink, put on a gown and gloves, pulled the resident's privacy curtain to provide
privacy, removed his gloves, did not wash, or sanitize his hands and put on a new pair of gloves. ADON A
then pulled back the resident's bed sheets, helped unfasten the resident's brief, removed his gloves, did not
wash, or sanitize his hands and put on a new pair of gloves. ADON A then provided Resident #147 with
wound care, removed his gloves, went to the resident's bathroom sink to wash his hands and then used his
left hand to turn off the water faucet instead of using a disposable towel. ADON A then returned to Resident
#147's bedside, put on a pair of gloves, and completed wound care. ADON A then took the wasted supplies
used during wound care and placed them in a trash bag. ADON A then removed his gloves, did not wash,
or sanitize his hands and put on a new pair of gloves. ADON A then helped to reposition Resident #147
onto his back, fastened the resident's brief and pulled the blanket over the resident's lower extremities.
ADON A then removed his gloves, and gown, went into Resident #147's bathroom and washed his hands.
ADON A then turned off the faucet with his left hand instead of using a disposable towel.
During an interview on 3/20/25 at 10:52 a.m., ADON A stated he should have been sanitizing or washing
his hands between glove changes to disinfect his hands and to get rid of organisms. ADON A further
stated, he should not have touched the faucet after washing his hands because the faucet was dirty and
should have used a towel instead. ADON A stated, it was important to practice proper infection control
because you don't want to spread infection, and if cross contamination occurred it could cause the resident
to get an infection and end up in the hospital or there was the possibility of spreading infection to other
residents.
During an interview on 3/20/25 at 5:34 p.m., the DON stated, washing hands before and after glove
changes to disinfect the hands and get rid of organisms before putting on gloves was her expectation.

The DON further stated, not practicing proper hand hygiene was a potential for spreading germs and risk of
infection to the resident. The DON stated, when washing hands with soap and water, the faucet should not
be touched because it was dirty and that would be a break in infection control.
Record review of the facility's policy titled Infection Prevention and Control Program, no date, stated Policy
Statement It is the policy of this facility to implement infection control measures to prevent the spread of
communicable diseases and conditions . transmission based precautions are the second tier of basic
infection control and are to be used in addition to standard precautions for patients who may be infected or
colonized with certain infectious agents for which additional precautions are needed to prevent infection
transmission. 1. Standard Precautions- are group of infection prevention practices that apply to the care of
all residents, regardless of suspected or confirmed infection or colonization status. They are based on the
principle that all blood, body fluids, secretions, and excretions (except sweat) may contain transmissible
infectious agents. Proper selection and use of PPE, such as gowns and gloves, is one component of
standard precautions, along with hand hygiene, safe injection practices, respiratory hygiene and cough
etiquette, environmental cleaning, and disinfection, and reprocessing of reusable medical equipment. The
use of PPE is based on staff interaction with residents and the potential for exposure to blood, body fluids,
or pathogens (E. G., gloves are worn when contact with blood, body fluids, mucus membranes, non intact
skin, or potentially contaminated surfaces or equipment are anticipated) .3. Enhanced Barrier precautions
(EBP): expand the use of PPE and refer to the use of gown and gloves during high contact resident care
activities that provide opportunities for transfer of MDROs to staff hands and clothing. MDROs maybe
indirectly transferred from resident to resident during these high contact activities. Nursing home residents
with wounds and indwelling medical devices are especially at high risk for both acquisition of and
colonization of MDRO's. a. PPE: use of gown and gloves for high contact resident care activities is
indicated, when contact precautions do not otherwise apply, for nursing home residents with: i. Wounds
and/or indwelling medical devices regardless of the MDRO colonization as well as for residents ii. MDRO
infection or colonization. B. Multi drug resistant organisms (MDRO) the MDROs for which the use of EBP
applies are based on local epidemiology. At minimum, they should include resistant organisms targeted by
the CDC and can also include other epidemiologically important MDROs .C. Examples of high contact
resident care activities requiring gown and glove use for enhanced. Precautions include: i. Dressing, ii.
Bathing poured flash showering, iii. Transferring, iv. Provide hygiene .
