This survey cited 19 deficiencies, 1 of them serious (actual harm or immediate jeopardy). The full statement and the facility’s plan of correction follow, verbatim from the federal record.

F 0655 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Few Create and put into place a plan for meeting the resident's most immediate needs within 48 hours of being admitted **NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on interview and record review, the facility failed to develop a person-centered baseline admission care plan for 1 of 5 residents (Resident #43) reviewed for baseline care plans in that: -The facility failed to develop a 48-hour baseline care plan with goals, interventions, treatments, and psychosocial needs addressed in a resident specific care plan for Resident #43. This failure could affect new admissions residents reviewed for 48-hour baseline care plans of not having their individual, medical, functional, and psychosocial needs identified and cause a physical or psychosocial decline in health. Findings included: Record review or Resident #43's admission record dated October 3, 2024, revealed a [AGE] year-old male admitted to the facility on [DATE]. Resident #43's diagnoses included cerebrovascular disease (conditions that affect blood flow to your brain) and hemiplegia and hemiparesis following cerebral infarction (both conditions that can occur after a cerebral infarction, or stroke, and are characterized by weakness or paralysis on one side of the body). Record review of Resident #43's admissions MDS dated [DATE] revealed a Brief Interview of Mental Status (BIMS) score of 15 out of 15 revealing he was cognitively intact. The MDS assessment revealed that Resident #43 was impaired on one side with upper extremities and limited on both sides with lower extremities with functional range of motions. Resident #43 was coded to be always incontinent of bladder and bladder. Record review of Resident #43's baseline care plan dated of 5/29/2024 revealed that he was always incontinent with bladder and frequently incontinent with bowel. 1. Urinary continence required assistance to total dependence with his ADL's, he required anticoagulants, oxygen, and pain medication. There were no other focus areas related to incontinent care for Resident #43 related to skin. During an interview on 10/3/24 at 1: 32pm the DON said that Resident #43 should have had a baseline care plan to address the potential for skin issue, that Resident #43 was incontinent of bladder and also used the urinal. She added that a potential negative outcome of not having a care plan to address skin issues would be a potential unawareness of required care to provide. She said that the MDS (continued on next page) Any deficiency statement ending with an asterisk (*) denotes a deficiency which the institution may be excused from correcting providing it is determined that other safeguards provide sufficient protection to the patients. (See instructions.) Except for nursing homes, the findings stated above are disclosable 90 days following the date of survey whether or not a plan of correction is provided. For nursing homes, the above findings and plans of correction are disclosable 14 days following the date these documents are made available to the facility. If deficiencies are cited, an approved plan of correction is requisite to continued program participation.

F 0655 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Few Coordinators would be responsible for creating the care plans and that they facility had one MDS Coordinator on site and also had a Regional MDS Nurse. During an interview on 10/4/2024 at 1:00 pm MDS Coordinator A said Resident #43 should have had a baseline care plan to address the resident for skin issues and she missed it. She said Resident #43 was in bed quite a bit, he was care planned for using the urinal, but she should have care planned him for skin issues. She said she used the RAI manual for assessments and care plans. She said that a negative outcome for a resident not care planned for skin could be skin irritation, rashes and possible skin break down. She added that there was another staff that also held responsibility for care plans that worked off-site, MDS Coordinator B and she believed that Resident #43 admitted under skilled care so MDS Coordinator B would have completed Resident #43's initial care plan. During a telephone interview on 10/4/2024 at 1:15 pm with MDS Coordinator B, she said that Resident #43 should have had a care plan to address skin issues and the potential negative outcome could be skin breakdown, if not care planned. She confirmed using the RAI Manual for care plans. Record review of the facility policy entitled; Baseline Care Plan dated revised 6/2024 reflected in part .The Facility will implement a Baseline Care Plan to ensure continuity of care and communication, prevent adverse events, and inform the resident and/or responsible party of the initial care and services . Procedure: A Baseline Care Plan will be developed within 48 hours of admission.

F 0656 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Some Develop and implement a complete care plan that meets all the resident's needs, with timetables and actions that can be measured. **NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on observation, interview and record review, the facility failed to develop and implement a comprehensive person-centered care plan for each resident that includes measurable objectives and timeframes to meet a resident's medical, nursing and mental and psychosocial needs that are identified in the comprehensive assessment describing services that are to be furnished to attain or maintain the resident's highest practicable physical, mental, and psychosocial well-being for 2 of 3 residents (Residents #88 and #43) reviewed for comprehensive care plans. 1. The facility failed to care plan Resident #88's behavior of removing her oxygen cannula off her face and not properly storing the cannula when not in use. 2. The facility failed to care plan Resident #43 for potential skin issues due to being always incontinent with bladder and frequently incontinent with bowel . This failure could lead to residents not having their individual, medical, functional, and psychosocial needs identified and cause a physical or psychosocial decline in health. Findings included: 1. Record review of Resident #88's face sheet dated 09/30/2024 revealed a [AGE] year-old who was admitted to the facility on [DATE] with medical diagnoses including: chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (lung condition that limits airflow in and out of the lungs due to swelling and irritation), dysphagia (difficulty swallowing), Major Depressive Disorder, Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder, hypothyroidism (underactive thyroid gland), and hypertension (high blood pressure). Record review of Resident #88's Quarterly MDS assessment dated [DATE] revealed she had a BIMS (short assessment of mental status) score of 15, indicating high cognitive intactness. Further review revealed Resident #88 used a wheelchair and that she was fully independent in all self-care activities except for showering or bathing, where she required set-up or clean-up assistance . Resident #88's MDS did not reflect that she was on oxygen therapy. Record review of Resident #88's MAR (medication administration administration) for September 2024 revealed she had physician orders started on 10/16/2023 for oxygen at 2-6 liters to keep o2 sats above 92% as needed. Record review of Resident #88's physician notes dated 07/02/2024, the MD wrote under her COPD diagnosis: patient has a history of significant COPD, currently symptoms/COPD well-controlled, patient is sometimes noncompliant with keeping the oxygen on, patient has been advised to keep the supplemental oxygen on, understands risks.

F 0656 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Some Record review of Resident #88's care plan last reviewed 09/10/2024 revealed she had a focus area of shortness of breath and at risk for respiratory distress/failure and increased episodes of SOB (shortness of breath) as evidenced by COPD diagnosis. Resident #88 refused to be sent to the ER for evaluation after complaining of SOB on 04/29/2024. Interventions included: applying O2 per order, check pulse oximetry as ordered, and observe for s/sx of respiratory infection and report any noted to the MD. Resident #88's care plan did not address her behavior of removing oxygen cannula against physician orders. Observation of Resident #88's room on 09/30/2024 at 9:30am, revealed the oxygen cannula was on the bed underneath two sheets and one blanket near the left edge of the bed. Observation and interview with RN G on 09/30/2024 at 9:30am, revealed RN G came into Resident #88's room and took the cannula out and put it in a clean bag. RN G stated a risk of keeping the cannula on the mattress would be it could catch fire and infection control . Interview with Resident #88 on 09/30/2024 at 12:55pm, she stated that her oxygen was working well and she had no issues and that she measured her own oxygen using her personal pulse oximeter because she was a smoker. She had been educated on oxygen use by staff. Interview with the Administrator and RNC on 09/30/024 at 2:16pm, the RNC said Resident #88 tended to lay her cannula on the sheet. The RNC said that the nurses should have cleaned the cannula when Resident #88 laid it on her bed but that it was not an infection control issue because it was unknown if Resident #88 placed the cannula back on for use without it being cleaned first. The RNC said Resident #88 had been at the facility for a few years and was independent and that nurses did not track or monitor the oxygen while she smokes. Interview with the MDS Coordinator A on 10/05/2024 at 1:01pm, she said that Resident #88 has PRN oxygen orders and that there is was documentation Resident #88 was educated on keeping her oxygen equipment clean and taking care of it. MDS Coordinator A said Resident #88 was care-planned for oxygen, but that MDS Coordinator A recently put in the care plan that Resident #88 tended to take off her cannula and leave the room without cleaning it and storing it. MDS Coordinator A said that Resident #88 leaving the cannula out in the open was an infection control risk because it could end up on the floor which is dirty and where people step on it. MDS Coordinator A said that Resident #88 is documented for respiratory issues and that she should know how to turn off her oxygen concentrator, but that staff are responsible for turning it off if they saw her going down the hall away from her room. Another interview with the Administrator on 10/07/2024 at 2:00pm, she said that each patient had individualized care plans which allowed staff to know how to better take care of the patient as an individual. 2. Record review or Resident #43's admission record dated October 3, 2024 revealed a [AGE] year-old male admitted to the facility on [DATE]. Resident #43's diagnoses included cerebrovascular disease (conditions that affect blood flow to your brain) and hemiplegia and hemiparesis following cerebral infarction (both conditions that can occur after a cerebral infarction, or stroke, and are characterized by weakness or paralysis on one side of the body).

Record review of Resident #60's Physician Order dated 10/04/2024 at 08:21 AM from MD K revealed, Order Summary/Description: LOW AIR LOSS MATTRESS - PROMOTE WOUND HEALING Ensure Mattress is in place and working all shifts. During an observation and interview on 10/01/2024 at 03:38 PM Resident #60 stated he has sores on his bottom since he had admitted and pointed to a torn and ripped regular mattress laid to the side of his bed. He stated that he was lying on the wrong mattress the whole time he had been admitted and finally received the correct mattress of which he was currently lying on. He stated when he returned to his room a week or so ago and he finally received a new mattress after years of complaining about the old mattress being uncomfortable, worn and torn. Resident was observed sitting 45-degrees upright with both legs bent at the knee. Resident appeared to have had swollen reddish legs with swollen peeling feet. Resident stated he was in constant pain when lying on the old mattress. During an interview on 10/03/2024 at 01:20 PM, the DON stated Resident #60 received a mattress change when he returned from his last hospital visit on 09/10/2024.

The LVN E received the order from MD K and the mattress was obtained and placed. She was unaware what the Group 2 Mattress indicated on the resident's physician order. She stated she would ask NP B what Group-2 Mattress means. She stated the benefit of a resident with sacrum pressure wounds having an air mattress provide the resident pressure reduction flexibility, offload parts of body, reduces skin tears and breakdowns for patents that do not move allot. She stated they were having trouble getting him up to change the mattress as he refused patient care often.
