Level of Harm - Immediate
jeopardy to resident health or

Residents Affected - Some
breath, like a low oxygen level. LVN A said the next nurse would be responsible to call the MD/NP if they
had concerns to report. LVN A said she checked Resident #1's vital signs and he did not have a
temperature. LVN A said she listened to Resident #1's lungs but could not describe what she heard. LVN A
said Resident #1's lungs were clear. LVN A said a breathing treatment was administered on [DATE] and it
was effective.
During an interview on [DATE] at 1:27 PM, the NP indicated it was not unusual not to call back if she
received a page from the facility nurse. The NP stated if the nurse did not hear back [from the NP] within 15
minutes, she should have tried to call again. The NP stated Resident #1 had a diagnosis of cardiomegaly
(an enlarged heart), COPD (a group of diseases that cause airflow blockage and breathing-related
problems), and a medical history of pneumonia that she would have suggested a PRN diuretic and a chest
x-ray had she received a call about the change in condition before Saturday, [DATE]. The NP said the
suggested treatments would have been ineffective by Saturday ([DATE]) and sending Resident #1 to the
hospital for a higher level of care was the best treatment option at the time. The NP stated she may have
requested a COVID test if demonstrated temperature and/or cough.
A record review of the facility's policy titled, Significant Change in Condition, Response, revised [DATE],
reflected 1. If, at any time, it is recognized by any one of the team members that the condition or care needs
of the resident have changed, the Licensed Nurse or Nurse Supervisor should be made aware 4. The nurse
will communicate the change to other departments as appropriate and updated communications will be
available during morning report
Record review of the facility's Notifying the Physician of Change in Status policy, revised [DATE], reflected:
The nurse should not hesitate to contact the physician at any time when an assessment and their
professional judgment deem it necessary for immediate medical attention. This facility utilizes the
INTERACT tool, Change in Condition - When to Notify the MD/NP/PA to review resident conditions and
guide the nurse when to notify the physician. This tool informs the nurse if the resident condition requires
immediate notification of the physician or non-immediate/Report on Next Work day notification of the
physician.
This was determined to be an Immediate Jeopardy (IF) on [DATE] at 5:50 PM. The NFA was notified and
was provided with the IJ template on [DATE] at 5:50 PM .
The following Plan of Removal submitted by the facility was accepted on [DATE] at 3:17 PM:
All residents have the potential to be affected by this deficient practice.
Interventions:
All residents in the facility were assessed for any change of condition by the DON, ADON and Charge
Nurses as of [DATE]. No additional issues were found.
DON, ADON will audit all resident nursing notes for a change of condition to ensure notification of changes
to the attending physician/nurse partitioner. Completed [DATE]. Going forward the DON/ADON/designee
will monitor progress notes for a change in condition and notification to the attending physician/nurse
practitioner daily during the morning clinical meeting.

Residents Affected - Some
During an interview and record review on [DATE] at 2:49 PM, the DON stated she initiated an audit of nurse
progress notes to identify actions taken related to shortness of breath, nurse assessment and interventions,
provider, and RP notification, and if new orders were received and acted on . Record review revealed recent
assessments.
Interviews conducted with nurses and CNAs scheduled on the 6A - 2P shift (RN D, LVN J, CNA I and CNA

physician notification, and documentation. Each nurse stated in their own words the procedure to notify
physicians immediately about resident change in condition. Each nurse demonstrated how to perform a
respiratory assessment and verbalized abnormal findings. CNAs stated in their own words' signs and
symptoms of acute respiratory distress, what must be reported to the charge nurse, and how to ensure
oxygen therapy equipment functioned and applied appropriately on the resident.
Record review of a QAPI ad hoc meeting minutes, dated [DATE], reflected the QAPI team met to discuss

condition and steps the facility must take to address the concern.
Record review of an in-service conducted by the RCN , dated [DATE] with the NFA, DON and ADON.
Objectives of the in-service included Abuse and Neglect; Performing an assessment and providing care to

jeopardy to resident health or
safety
**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, including tracheostomy care and tracheal suctioning, provided such care, consistent with professional
standards of practice, the comprehensive person-centered care plan, and the residents' goals and
preferences for 1 of 3 residents (Resident #1) reviewed for respiratory care .
Residents Affected - Some
On [DATE] - [DATE], the facility failed to conduct a respiratory assessment for a potential change in
condition or decline when Resident #1 experienced shortness of breath and required as needed breathing
treatments and oxygen therapy. On [DATE], Resident #1 was transferred to the ER. Resident #1 was
intubated and passed away at the hospital.
An Immediate Jeopardy (IJ) situation was identified on [DATE]. While the IJ was removed on [DATE], the
facility remained out of compliance at a scope of isolated with a potential for more than minimal harm, due
to the facility's need to evaluate the effectiveness of the corrective systems .
This failure could place residents at risk of not receiving timely medical interventions as needed, which
could result in a delay in medical intervention and decline in health or possible worsening of symptoms,
including death.
Findings included:
Record review of Resident #1's MDS significant change in status assessment, dated [DATE], reflected an
[AGE] year-old male who was admitted to the facility on [DATE]. Resident #1 had active diagnoses which

spells; Fast pulse or pounding heartbeat; Fatigue]). Resident #1's most recent re-entry to the facility was
[DATE] with a diagnosis which included Displaced Commuted Fracture of Shaft of Right Femur. The MDS
assessment reflected no known shortness of breath or trouble breathing with exertion, when sitting at rest,
or when lying flat.
Record review of Resident #1's Order Summary Report reflected:
