Honor the resident's right to a dignified existence, self-determination, communication, and to exercise his or her rights. **NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on observations, interviews, and record review the facility failed to treat each resident with respect and dignity and provide care in a manner that promotes maintenance or enhancement of his or her quality of life for 1 of 4 residents (Resident #07) reviewed for resident rights in that: The facility failed to provide a catheter privacy bag for Residents #07 while sitting in main living room at facility with other residents on 11/5/2024. This failure could place residents at risk for diminished quality of life, loss of dignity and self-worth.
Findings included: 1.Record review of a face sheet for Resident #07 dated 2/20/2024, indicated Resident #07 was a [AGE] year-old female who was re-admitted on [DATE] with the diagnoses of encephalopathy (A medical term used to describe a disease that affects brain structure or function. It causes altered mental state and confusion.), Intellectual disabilities (a condition that limits intelligence and disrupts abilities necessary for living independently), dementia (a term used to describe a group of symptoms affecting memory, thinking and social abilities), and conversion disorder with seizures (a condition where a mental health issue disrupts how your brain works). Record review of a quarterly MDS assessment dated [DATE] indicated Resident #07 was rarely or never understood and BIMS score unable to be recorded indicating Resident #07 was severely cognitively impaired. Resident #07 was dependent for all ADL's (Activities of Daily Living). Record review of a care plan for ADLs, last updated 12/15/2017, indicated Resident #07 required max assist with all ADL's due to cognition related to mental retardation, unsteady gait/balance, daily bowel, and bladder incontinence. During an observation on 11/4/2024 at10:25 AM, Resident #07 was sitting up in wheelchair in her room with door open with catheter bag hanging below wheelchair without a privacy bag with yellow urine observed in the catheter bag. During an observation on 11/5/2024 at 10:13 AM, Resident #07 was sitting in the main living room on Hall C seated in her specialty wheelchair with catheter bag without a privacy cover hanging below her wheelchair.

During an observation on 11/5/2024 at 10:43 AM, Resident #07 was sitting in the main living room on hall C in her wheelchair with catheter bag hanging below the wheelchair. The catheter bag was dated 10/31/2024 with urine facing the toward the front of the wheelchair. During an interview on 11/6/2024 at 11:07 AM, CNA A said residents who have a catheter should have a privacy cover over the catheter bag. CNA A said the nursing staff were responsible for keeping the catheter bags covered. She said if she observed a resident without a catheter bag cover, she would notify the nurse. CNA A said a resident may not feel comfortable if other residents were eating or drinking with a catheter bag exposed or make a resident feel bad if their catheter was exposed. During an interview on 11/6/2024 at 1:00 PM, LVN C said the facility has privacy covers for catheter bags. LVN C said if a resident comes from the hospital with a catheter, they sometimes do not have privacy covers. LVN C said she did not think you could change the catheter bags, but the staff could use a leg bag if a resident was up. LVN C said if a resident remained in their room and did not leave, they would still need a privacy bag. LVN C said a resident could be embarrassed if they did not have the proper cover over their catheter. LVN C said it could also bother other residents if they observed a catheter while eating or in a main room together. She said if a resident had a catheter that looked nasty, it could change a person's appetite. During an interview on 11/6/2024 at 1:24 PM, the ADON said the residents should have catheter covers on their catheter. The ADON said sometimes residents will go out to the hospital and they return with a different type of catheter. She said the facility nursing staff would change out the resident's catheter bag and place one from the facility's catheter bags with the privacy cover. The ADON said it was important to have the privacy covers on the catheters for privacy. She said a resident could be self-conscious if they had a catheter where other could see. She said if a resident was unable to voice their need for privacy bag, the staff should anticipate their need. During an interview on 11/6/2024 at 1:44 PM, the DON said she expected the nurses to change out the catheter bags to the facility's catheter bag with privacy cover. The DON said it depended on the resident, but it could be a dignity issue. She said she felt a reasonable person would feel embarrassed if their catheter bag was exposed. She said it may cause other persons in the public setting to lose their appetite. The DON said Resident #07 leaves her room, and she did have a new catheter bag after returning from hospital on [DATE]. During an interview on 11/6/2024 at 2:06 PM, the ADM said he expected the Resident #7 to have a privacy bag on her catheter. The ADM said it was the responsibility of the charge nurse to change out the catheter bags when a resident returns from the hospital. Review of a policy dated 9/2/2015 titled Indwelling Urinary Catheter Use revealed Purpose: A resident who enters the facility without an indwelling catheter is not catheterized unless the resident's clinical condition demonstrates that catheterization was necessary. 8. Catheter care: c. Utilization drainage bag holders/covers when resident is out of room to provide dignity. Review of a policy dated July 1, 2002, titled Dignity: The Quality or State of being worthy, honored or esteemed revealed .a resident is treated with respect, consideration, and recognition as an individual. The facility now becomes the resident's home; therefore, remember each resident has a right to A dignified existence. The facility must promote care in a manner and environment that enhances each resident's dignity and respect in full recognition of his/her individuality.

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 to meet each resident's medical, nursing, mental and psychosocial needs for 2 of 6 residents reviewed for care plans. (Resident #6 and Resident #29) The facility failed to ensure Resident #6's vision impairment and use of eyeglasses were care planned. The facility failed to ensure Resident #29's hearing impairment was care planned. These failures could place residents at risk of not having individual needs met, a decreased quality of life, and cause residents not to receive needed services.
Findings included: Record review of Resident #6's face sheet dated 11/06/24 indicated Resident #6 was a [AGE] year-old female admitted to the facility on [DATE] and 05/02/18 with diagnoses including dementia (is the loss of cognitive functioning - thinking, remembering, and reasoning - to such an extent that it interferes with a person's daily life and activities), cognitive communication deficit (is a condition that makes it difficult to communicate due to a brain injury or other underlying cognitive issues), and age related physical debility (is weakness caused by an illness, injury, or aging). Record review of Resident #6's quarterly MDS assessment dated [DATE] indicated Resident #6 was sometimes understood and sometimes understood others. Resident #6 had moderately impaired vision with use of corrective lenses. Resident #6 was rarely/never understood and was unable to complete the BIMS assessment. Resident #6 had short-and-long term memory problem and moderately impaired cognitive skills for daily decision making. Record review of Resident #6's care plan received on 11/06/24 did not reflect a care plan problem addressing moderately impaired vision with use of corrective lenses. During an observation on 11/04/24 at 12:45 p.m., Resident #6 was in the dining room eating lunch. Resident #6 did not have eyeglasses on. During an observation on 11/05/24 at 9:45 a.m., Resident #6 was in the facility's television room. Resident #6 was asleep in her wheelchair with no eyeglasses visualized. During an observation and interview on 11/05/24 at 3:00 p.m., Resident #6's was in the television room. Resident #6 was in her wheelchair with no eyeglasses visualized. Resident #6 answered basic questions but got confused when questioned about her vision. During an interview on 11/05/24 at 3:10 p.m., the DON said Resident #6 had several pairs of eyeglasses. She said Resident #6 did wear her eyeglasses but also liked to claim other people eyeglasses were hers. She said she found Resident #6's prescribed eyeglasses in her purse. Record review of Resident #29's face sheet dated 11/06/24 indicated Resident #29 was an [AGE]

year-old male admitted to the facility on [DATE] and 04/26/22 with diagnoses including dementia (is a chronic condition that causes a decline in mental abilities, such as thinking, remembering, and reasoning, that interferes with daily life), and retention of urine (is a condition that prevents the bladder from emptying completely). Record review of Resident #29's annual MDS assessment dated [DATE] indicated Resident #29 was understood and usually understood others. Resident #29 had moderate difficulty hearing and no hearing aids. Resident #29 had a BIMS score of 10 which indicated moderate cognitive impairment. Resident #29's care area assessment summary triggered communication. Record review of Resident #29's care plan provided on 11/06/24 did not reflect Resident #29's moderate difficulty hearing and no hearing aids. During an observation and interview on 11/04/24 at 1:45 p.m., Resident #29 was lying bed. Resident #29 did not understand the interview questions until the surveyor spoke loudly and slowed my speech. During an interview on 11/05/24 at 4:00 p.m., Resident #29 said he was hard of hearing but did not want hearing aids. During an interview on 11/05/24 at 4:05 p.m., LVN K said Resident #29 was hard of hearing. She said the facility had attempted to send him to a doctor for it, but he refused. During an interview on 11/06/24 at 11:05 a.m., the MDS Coordinator said she was responsible for resident's care plans. She said Resident #6 and Resident #29's vision and hearing deficit should be on their care plan. She said if the vision and hearing deficit was triggered on the MDS then it should be care planned. She said Resident #6 had vision problems and wore eyeglasses. She said she did not know Resident #29 was hard of hearing. She said social service normally handled resident's vision and hearing needs. She said she would communicate with social service to see what interventions needed to be added for Resident #29. She said a resident's care plan was important, so everyone was aware of the resident's needs. She said when things were not care planned, it placed residents at risk for not getting theirs needs met. During an interview on 11/06/24 at 11:58 a.m., the DON said the facility developed care plans by looking at the resident's history, talked to the family, assessment by facility staff, and the MDS. She said Resident #6 and Resident #29's vision and hearing deficit should be on their care plans. She said it was important to have a resident hearing problem on their care plan to know how to communicate with them and how the communicate with the staff. She said the vision problem needed to be on the care plan to know if the resident required special assistance due to decrease vision. She said it placed resident at risk for falls if their vision needs were not addressed. She said the MDS Coordinator and DON were responsible for the resident's care plan. She said the IDT should oversee the care planning process. During an interview on 11/06/24 at 2:19 p.m., the ADM said the DON and MDS Coordinator were responsible for the resident's care plans. He said Resident #6 and Resident #23's vision and hearing deficit should be care planned. He said it was important to care plan those problems to know how to interact with the residents. He said it was important because vision and hearing affected the resident quality of life and care. He said the DON and MDS Coordinator were also responsible for overseeing the care planning process.

**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on interview, and record review the facility failed to ensure residents received care, consistent with professional standards of practice, to prevent pressure ulcers based on the comprehensive assessment for 1 of 2 Residents (Resident #12) whose record were reviewed for skin integrity.
Residents Affected - Few
The facility failed to ensure Resident #12 received and/or documented wound care on the evening shift of 10/19/24 and 10/20/24. This failure could place residents at risk for developing pressure ulcers and could contribute to developing avoidable pressure ulcers.
Findings included: Record review of Resident #12's face sheet dated 11/06/24 indicated Resident #12 was a [AGE] year-old female admitted on [DATE] and 10/18/24 with diagnoses including dementia (is a chronic condition that causes a decline in mental abilities, such as thinking, remembering, and reasoning, that interferes with daily life), pressure ulcer of sacral region (is a skin injury that forms on the sacrum, a bony area of the lower back and spine), and enterocolitis (is a condition that involves inflammation of the small and large intestines, or digestive tract) due to clostridium difficile (is a bacterium that can cause diarrhea, colitis, and other symptoms). Record review of Resident #12's annual MDS assessment dated [DATE] indicated Resident #12 was understood and usually understood others. Resident #12 had a BIMS score of 01 which indicated severe cognitive impairment. Resident #12 was at risk of developing pressure ulcer/injuries. Record review of Resident #12's care plan dated 10/21/24 indicated Resident #12 had a skin concern: Unstageable coccyx. Intervention included administer medication and supplements as needed.

During an interview on 11/06/24 at 11:09 a.m., WCN F said when a resident with a pressure ulcer was admitted the charge nurse was responsible to complete an assessment, call the PCP to relay findings and discuss treatment orders from the hospital. She said if the PCP approved of the treatment orders from the hospital, the charge nurse place the order on the TAR and physician order slip. She said Resident #12's treatment order was for twice a day. She said AM or days was done by the 6am-2pm shift and the evening was done by 2-10 pm shift. She said on the weekends, the weekend supervisor was responsible for dressing changes. She said the weekend supervisor usually arrived around midnight and completed dressing changes around 8-9 am. She said the weekend supervisor reviewed the treatment book and charge nurses informed him of wound dressing changes that were due. She said when a treatment was done, it should be charted in the nurse's notes and the MAR/TAR. She said it was important to document on the MAR/TAR when a treatment was done so everyone knew it was completed. She said on Resident #12's TAR, it appeared the treatment for her coccyx was only done once but the nurse's note said the dressing was clean, dry, and intact. She said it was important for Resident #12 to receive her treatment twice a day to decrease the risk of infection and help with wound healing. She said if Resident #12's coccyx dressing was not done as ordered, she was at risk for an infection and decreased healing. During an interview on 11/06/24 at 11:23 a.m., LVN G said she did not remember if Resident #12's wound dressing was changed on her shift. She said she worked the 2pm-10pm shift. She said when a treatment was done it was supposed to be charted on the resident's MAR/TAR. She said if the treatment order was scheduled for twice a day, it was supposed to be done on the morning shift and evening shift. She said the evening shift was 2pm-10pm shift. She it was important for Resident #12's wound dressing to be changed as ordered to control the drainage. She said if a resident's dressing was not changed as ordered then the wound could get infected and worsen. During an interview on 11/06/24 at 11:55 a.m., RN H said he was the weekend supervisor for the facility. He said he knew which treatments needed to be complete from reviewing the treatment book. He said when he completed the treatment, he placed his initials on the TAR/MAR. He said he normally completed the treatments after the residents got up in the morning. He said if Resident #12 had an order for a treatment he probably did it. He said he did not know why 10/19/24 and 10/20/24 were not initialed. He said if something was not documented then it was not done. He said Resident #12's treatment needed to be done twice a day because that was how it was ordered. He said it did not help the resident if the treatment was not done as ordered. During an interview on 11/06/24 at 11:58 a.m., the DON said she expected the nursing staff to follow the physician orders and document when treatments were done. She said nursing staff should document on the MAR/TAR and nurse's notes. She said the weekend supervisor or the resident's nurse were responsible for wound dressing changes. She said the treatments needed to be done as ordered to prevent infection and worsening of the wound. She said the WCN and DON should oversee that the wound care treatment orders were being followed.
