This survey cited 5 deficiencies. The full statement and the facility’s plan of correction follow, verbatim from the federal record.

F 0656 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Few 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 implement the comprehensive person-centered care plan of each resident that included measurable objectives and timetables to meet a resident's medical, nursing, and mental and psychosocial needs for 1 of 3 residents reviewed for physician orders for oxygen therapy. (Resident #4) The facility failed to implement a comprehensive person-centered care plan for Resident #24's oxygen at 3 liters nasal cannula as needed for shortness of breath ordered by the physician on 06/03/2022. This failure could place residents at risk for not receiving appropriate care and services to meet their needs. Findings included: Record review of the Physician orders dated 06/03/2022 indicated Resident #24 was a [AGE] year-old female, admitted on [DATE]. Her diagnosis was pulmonary embolism and shortness of breath. Record review of Resident #24's physician orders dated 06/03/2022 indicated she admitted to the facility with an order for oxygen at 3 liter per minute as needed for shortness of breath. Record review of Resident #24's care plans initiated on 06/03/2022 indicated she was at risk for ineffective breathing pattern and approaches included to administer oxygen as ordered by the physician. Record review of Resident #24's treatment administration record (TAR) dated 06/03/2022-08/31/2022 did not address the resident oxygen administration ordered by the physician or oxygen set up maintenance. Record review of Resident #24's MDS dated [DATE] indicated she was cognitively intact and was dependent on one staff for activities of daily living and utilized oxygen. During an observation and interview on 08/15/2022 at 9:34 a.m., Resident #24 was resting in her bed with the head of her bed elevated, awake and alert, and had oxygen at 2 liters per nasal cannula on. She said she always required her oxygen since she admitted from the hospital and said she could not breath without it. Her oxygen tubing and humidifier was not dated or labeled.

She was assessed by LVN A, he said she was fine. Resident #24 had on oxygen at 2 liters per nasal cannula and the oxygen tubing and humidifier was not dated or labeled. LVN A said he was not Resident #24's charge nurse and did not know anything about Resident #24's oxygen but advised the surveyor to ask Resident #24's charge nurse, LVN B. Residents Affected - Few During an interview and record review on 08/16/2022 at 10:19 a.m., LVN B said she was Resident #24's charge nurse. LVN B said she was an agency nurse but worked at the facility regularly and was familiar with Resident #24. LVN B said she did not know why Resident #24 required oxygen or what the physician order was but said she thought she had been treated for a pulmonary embolism in the hospital. LVN B said the oxygen was supposed to be transcribed onto the treatment administration record when the physician order was received, so the appropriate protocol could be documented such as monitoring the oxygen administration and changing tubing to ensure it was safe and clean. LVN B stated Resident #24's oxygen administration nor set up maintenance was documented on her medication or treatment administration records. During an interview and record review on 08/16/2022 at 10:30 a.m., the MDS nurse said she was one of the nurse managers responsible to review clinical records for newly admitted residents daily in the interdisciplinary team meetings. The MDS nurse said Resident #24 was on oxygen since admission and the physician order should have been transcribed onto her treatment administration order to ensure it was properly administered and maintained but it was missed. During an interview on 08/16/2022 at 11:43 a.m., the ADON said she contacted Resident #24's Nurse Practitioner to clarify her order for oxygen and it was transcribed into the computer to print on the consolidated physician's orders and the treatment administration orders after surveyor intervention. During an interview on 08/16/2022 at 10:37 a.m., the Administrator said the nurse managers were responsible to oversee that newly admitted residents' physician orders were properly transcribed into the clinical records, including the electronic medical records and treatment administration records, and the DON should have ultimately overseen that Resident #24's oxygen administration and set up were appropriately transcribed and administered. Record review of the facility's Oxygen Administration policy effective March 2019 indicated the facility required that a physician's order be obtained prior to the administration of oxygen. Record review of the facility's Comprehensive Interdisciplinary Plan of Care policy effective July 2018 indicated comprehensive interdisciplinary plan of care will be developed and implemented no later than 21 days following the admission, annual, or significant change MDS/RAI process. Procedures included review of the medical record documentation including, but not limited to, the following to establish functional and clinical needs: .nursing admission information, consider the following resident areas including but not limited to: unique characteristics .

F 0761 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Few Ensure drugs and biologicals used in the facility are labeled in accordance with currently accepted professional principles; and all drugs and biologicals must be stored in locked compartments, separately locked, compartments for controlled drugs. Based on observation, interview, and record review, the facility failed to ensure all drugs and biologicals were in locked compartments, and permit only authorized personnel to have access medications for 1 of 4 medication carts (C/D Hall Medication Cart) observed, for labeling and storage, in that: C/D Hall medication cart was left unlocked outside the nurse's station during meal service. This deficient practice could place residents at risk for harm and possible drug diversion. The findings were: Observation on 08/15/22 at 12:50 p.m. revealed the C/D hall medication cart, located in front of the nurse's station with the medication drawers facing the hallway was unlocked and accessible to anyone in the hall. No staff members were in the direct line of sight to medication cart, no staff members were in the nurse's station and two unidentified residents were outside of the dining room nearby within three feet of the unlocked medication cart. During an interview with LVN A on 08/15/22 at 12:50 p.m., LVN A stated he was responsible for the unlocked C/D hall medication cart, and it should have been locked when left unattended. LVN A stated he should not have left the medication cart unlocked and kept the keys on his person to keep unauthorized users from getting into the medication cart or medication room. LVN A said there were confused residents that could get in the unlocked medication cart and said that one of the residents within three feet of the unlocked medication cart was confused and had the potential to be hurt by taking medications in the medication cart not prescribed for her, which was dangerous. He said he attended the in-service training in orientation regarding keeping the medication carts secured but had forgotten. During an interview with the DON on 08/15/22 02:02 p.m., she said the medication carts should always be locked when staff was not using them for any amount of time due to confused residents could access the medications. She said she wrote LVN A up and if any staff made this mistake again, they would be fired because it was a serious safety risk to her residents. During an interview with the ADM on 08/17/22 at 10:37 a.m., she said she was notified by the DON the C/D hall medication cart, located in front of the nurse's station with the medication drawers facing the hallway was unlocked and accessible to anyone in the hall and said staff were in-serviced in response to the surveyor found the medication cart unlocked. The ADM said this was immediately addressed due to the seriousness of the potential outcome to her residents if a confused resident accessed the unlocked medication cart. Record review of the facility's policy titled Medication Storage effective December 2018 read in part: Medications, treatments, and biologicals are stored safely, securely and properly following manufacturer's recommendations or facility policy.
