Ensure that feeding tubes are not used unless there is a medical reason and the resident agrees; and
provide appropriate care for a resident with a feeding tube.
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
observations, interviews, and record review the facility failed to ensure a resident who was fed by enteral
means received the appropriate treatment and services to restore, if possible, oral eating skills and to
prevent complications of enteral feeding for 1 of 3 residents (Resident #40) reviewed for reviewed for
feeding tubes.
The facility failed to ensure Resident #40's feeding bag was labeled and dated.
This failure could result in complications of enteral feedings such as receiving the wrong feeding or
outdated feeding.
The findings were:
Review of Resident #40's Quarterly MDS assessment dated [DATE] revealed that Resident #40 was an
[AGE] year-old male admitted to the facility on [DATE]. Relevant diagnoses included cerebrovascular
disease (interruption in the flow of blood to cells in the brain), dysphagia (difficulty swallowing), gastrostomy
status (a surgical procedure used to insert a tube, through the abdomen and into the stomach to deliver
nutrition), and Parkinson's disease (brain disorder that causes unintended or uncontrollable moments).
Resident #40 required assistance with ADLs. Resident #40 had BIMS score of 7 suggesting severe
cognitive impairment.
Review of Resident #40's comprehensive care plan dated 1/10/2024 revealed, Focus: The resident requires
tube feeding related to Dysphagia. Goal: o The resident will be free of aspiration through the review date. o
The resident will maintain adequate nutritional and hydration status. o The resident will remain free of side
effects or complications related to tube feeding. Intervention: The resident needs the head of bed elevated
45 degrees during and thirty minutes after tube feed. o Discuss with the resident/family/caregivers any
concerns about tube feeding, advantages, disadvantages, potential complications. o Listen to lung sounds.
o Observe and report signs and symptoms of aspiration.
Review of Resident #40's Physician order dated 2/8/2024 revealed Jevity 1.2 @ 65 milliliters per hour x 12
hours from 6pm - 6am via pump. Flush with 120 milliliters purified water every 4 hours.
In an observation on 03/05/24 at 10:21 AM, Resident #40 was lying in bed. He could not answer questions.
Resident #40 had an enteral feeding pump at his bedside which was not running into his G-tube (a tube
inserted through the belly that brings nutrition directly to the stomach). The feeding pump had 2 bags
hanging; one was marked as water dated 03/04/2024, and the second had a tan colored liquid. The tan
colored liquid bag did not have a label with contents, date it was hung, or the resident's name.
In an observation and interview with LVN A on 03/05/24 at 01:53 PM revealed that Resident #40 continued
to have the feeding pump next to his bed with one bag marked as water and the other bag did not have a
label or date on it. Per LVN A, Resident #40 received nocturnal tube feeding from 7 pm- 6am. She stated
that the 2-10 Shift LVN was responsible for starting Resident #40 on tube feeds and LVN on 10 pm-6am
shift was responsible for discontinuing the feeds. She stated that the tube feed formula came in 8-ounce
containers and needed to be poured in the tube feeding bag to administer the feeding to the resident. She
further stated that all Enteral feeding bags should be dated and labeled

each time before administering the feeds . She stated that the risk of not dating the tube feed bag was an
increased risk of infection related to an unknown hung date and risk of not labeling the bag was probably
hanging an incorrect tube feed formula.
In an interview with LVN B on 03/05/24 at 02:34 PM revealed that she worked on the 2 pm-10 am shift on
3/4/24 and hung the tube feed bag for Resident #40 around 6 pm on 3/4/24. She stated that she always
dated and labeled residents tube feed bag since it was standard nursing protocol, but she did not have a
marker with her to label the bag and may have forgotten to label and date it afterwards. She stated that the
risk for not dating and labeling was incorrect feedings, microbial growth, and potential for decreased quality
of care.
In an interview with the DON on 03/06/24 at 11:56 AM revealed that it was a standard nursing protocol to
date and label tube feed formula, and it was his expectation that all nursing staff follow standard protocols.
He stated that risk of not dating and labeling tube feed formula was a possibility of the same formula being
used for the resident for multiple days and spread of microbial infection. He stated that if the nursing staff
saw any tube feed formula that was not labeled, he expected them to throw it out, and restart the tube
feeds with a formula bag that was dated and labeled appropriately.
Record review of the facility's Enteral Nutrition Therapy policy dated 8/8/2023 revealed, the facility will
provide intermittent enteral nutrition therapy in accordance with physician orders and professional
standards of practice.
Recommendation from American Society for Parenteral and Enteral Nutrition Safe Practices for Enteral
Nutrition Therapy dated January 2017 Practice Recommendations Standardize the labels for all Enteral
formula containers, bags, or syringes to include who prepared the formula, date/time it was prepared, and
date and time it was started.
