The facility failed to complete the advance directive section in the baseline care plan dated [DATE] for Resident #123 within the required 48-hour timeframe when the physician order was dated [DATE]. This deficient practice could place the residents at risk of not having their end of life wishes honored, such as receiving unwanted resuscitative measures.

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 residents who needed respiratory care were provided such care consistent with professional standards of practice, the comprehensive person-centered care plan, and the resident's goals and preferences for 2 of 3 (Resident #63, Resident #345) residents reviewed for respiratory care.
Residents Affected - Few
1. The facility failed to ensure Resident #63's oxygen was administered at the correct setting of 3 liters per minute on 06/10/2025 as ordered by the physician. 2. The facility failed to ensure Resident #345's oxygen was administered at the correct setting of 2 liters per minute on 06/10/2025 as ordered by the physician. These deficient practices could place residents who receive respiratory care at an increased risk of developing respiratory complications and a decreased quality of care. The findings included: 1.Record review of Resident #63's admission record dated 06/10/2025 reflected a [AGE] year-old male with an admission date of 05/27/2025 and with an initial admit date of 04/18/2025. Pertinent diagnoses included Shortness of Breath, Acute Kidney Failure, Muscle Wasting and Atrophy (loss of muscle tissue), Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus, and Hypertension (high blood pressure). Record review of Resident #63's person-centered care plan, initiated date 4/21/2025 reflected Resident #63 used oxygen therapy related to hypoxia. Intervention included oxygen settings: Oxygen via nasal cannula at 3 liters per minute continuous. Record review of Resident #63's physician order dated 06/10/2025, reflected oxygen at 3 LPM via nasal cannula for Shortness of breath every shift. Record review of Resident #63's Quarterly MDS assessment, dated 06/23/2025 reflected it was in progress. During an observation of Resident #63 on 06/10/2025 at 11:15 a.m. revealed the oxygen level on the oxygen concentration machine was at 2.5Liters Per Minute via nasal cannula. Observation of Resident #63 revealed the resident was in bed with head of the bed slightly elevated. No signs of respiratory distress noted. 2. Record review of Resident #345's admission record dated 06/10/2025 reflected he was a [AGE] year-old male admitted on [DATE]. His relevant diagnoses included end stage renal disease (a condition in which the kidneys lose the ability to remove waste and balance fluids), dependence on renal dialysis (relying on a process to filter waste and excess fluid from the blood, as the kidneys were no longer functioning properly), and Hypertension (high blood pressure). Record review of Resident #345's care plan dated 06/10/25 reflected in progress.

LVN D agreed that the O2 setting was set at 2.5 Liters Per Minute. She stated the oxygen setting was supposed to be at 3 Liters Per Minute per physician orders. She stated that she checked the settings at the beginning of her shift. She was not sure who might have moved it. LVN D stated that she checked Resident #63's oxygen tubing and saturation in the mornings. She stated that she usually checked the oxygen once a day. LVN D stated that the negative outcome of keeping Resident# 63's oxygen setting at 2.5 Liters Per Minute was that the resident could go to respiratory distress. In an interview on 06/11/25 at 4:56 p.m. with the ADON C who stated that the nurse was responsible for checking the oxygen settings. She stated the nurse was supposed to check it every shift, whenever the patient comes back from doctors' appointments, and as needed. She stated the negative outcome of keeping it at a low setting would be that the patient would have hypoxia (low levels of oxygen), or respiratory distress. In an interview on 06/12/2025 at 4:00 p.m. with the DON, stated that the nurses assigned to that hall were responsible for checking the Oxygen settings. She stated that the nurses were to check the setting once per shift. The DON stated they were to follow oxygen settings on physician orders. The DON stated that the negative outcome could be that the resident could have a respiratory distress and hypoxia (low oxygen levels). In an interview on 6/12/2025 at 4:45 p.m. with the DON who stated that the facility did not have a policy on oxygen.

Residents Affected - Few
CNA F did not don PPE before entering Resident #346's. Resident #346 was under contact isolations physician orders. This failure could place residents who resided in the facility, as well as employees and visitors, at risk of communicable diseases. The findings included: Record review of Resident #346's face sheet dated 06/11/25 revealed a [AGE] year old female admitted to the facility on [DATE], with the diagnosis of hypertension (high blood pressure), chronic kidney disease (a condition where the kidneys are damaged and can't filter blood as well as they should), and heart failure (a condition where the heart does not pump enough blood to meet the body's needs).
