provide appropriate care for a resident with a feeding tube.
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
observation, interview, and record review, the facility failed to ensure that residents receiving enteral
feeding received appropriate care and services to prevent complication of enteral feeding for 1 of 1 resident
(Resident #34) reviewed for enteral feeding.
The facility failed to ensure LVN A verified placement and checked residual (something left behind) of
Resident #34's G-tube (a tube into the stomach that delivers formula for nutrition and medication) by
checking for tube placement and residual before enteral administration of water and medications.
These failures could place residents receiving medications at increased risk of serious complications.
Findings included:
Review of Resident #34's face sheet dated 07/12/24, revealed the resident was a [AGE] year-old female
admitted on [DATE] and initially admitted on [DATE] with diagnose that included dysphagia (difficulty or
discomfort swallowing). Aphasia (a language disorder that affects how you communicate), cerebral
infarction(stroke), Alzheimer's (a brain disorder that slowly destroys memory and thinking skills, dementia
(impaired ability to remember, think, or make decisions that interferes with doing everyday activities),
hemiplegia (one sided muscle paralysis or weakness), pain, unspecified and gastrostomy status (a tube
into the stomach that delivers formula for nutrition.
Record review of Resident #34's quarterly MDS assessement dated 06/28/24, revealed a BIMS score at 03

that giving the residents everything that is in the medication cup was important because the resident does
not get their full dose. The negative outcome was that the resident might have side effects from not getting
their full dose.
During an interview on 7/11/24 at 3:17 PM with the DON, stated that her expectation of the nurses
administering G-tube medications, was for there to not be any residual left in the medication cup. If there
was medication residual, then nurse should put a little bit more water and give the amount that remained in

Procure food from sources approved or considered satisfactory and store, prepare, distribute and serve
food in accordance with professional standards.
Based on observation, interviews, and record reviews, the facility failed to store, prepare, distribute, and
serve food in accordance with professional standards for food service safety for 2 of 2 unit refrigerators
(unit 1 and unit 2) reviewed for sanitation.
The facility failed to ensure unit refrigerators were free of unlabeled and undated items.
This failure could place residents at risk for foodborne illess due to cross contamination from unlabeled and
undated items in the unit refrigerators.
Findings included:
Observation of 2 of 2 unit refrigerators (unit 1 and unit 2) on 07/11/24 at 4:10 pm revealed 1 near empty
24-ounce bottle of salad dressing, wrapped in a paper towel, was unlabeled and undated in unit 1. There
were 3, 16.9-ounce bottles of water, 1 hamburger bun, 1 hamburger patty, and 1, 6.75-ounce near empty
container of orange juice, all undated and unlabeled in unit 2.
Interviews with LVN D and LVN E on 07/11/24 at 4:12 pm both stated the refrigerators were kept locked for
patient safety because the residents were in the locked unit. They both stated only the nurse for the units
held the key to the unit refrigerators. They both stated everything in the unit refrigerators was supposed to
be labeled and dated. They both stated they did not know how the unlabeled and undated items got into the
refrigerators or who they belonged to. They both stated it was important to have items in the unit
refrigerators labeled and dated because they did not know if the items belonged to the residents or to the
staff and because cross contamination could occur and make the resident's sick. They both stated the
refrigerators (unit 1 and unit 2) were supposed to be only for residents, but the unlabeled and undated
items did not look like resident belongings. Neither would say who or how someone else would have
obtained they keys to the unit refrigerators if only the nurse had possession of the keys.
An interview with the DON on 07/11/24 at 4:15 pm stated the two LVN's should know better than to allow
unlabeled and undated items in the unit refrigerators because they were trained and were told by her
repeatedly about labeling and dating items in the refrigerators. A facility policy regarding food storage in unit
refrigerators was requested.
Record review of a blue sign affixed to the front of the unit 2 refrigerator stated Personal Fridge Safety Tips
and continued with, Fridge must have thermometer. Fridge must be kept at a safe temp. Fridge must be
clean. All items must have a date received. Disposal of food after day seven. Keeping you safe.

**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based
observation, interview, and record review, the facility failed to maintain an Infection Prevention and Control
Program designed to provide a safe, sanitary, and comfortable environment and to help prevent the
development and transmission of communicable diseases and infections for three (Resident #19 and
Resident #34, and Resident #218) of five residents observed for infection control.
Residents Affected - Few
1. LVN A did not remove his gloves after insulin medication preparation for Resident #19 and administered
insulin medication with the same pair of gloves.
2. The facility failed to ensure LVN A washed his hands or used hand sanitizer between glove changes
while performing medication administration for Resident #34.
3. LVN F failed to wash her hands for 20 seconds or greater after performing wound care on Resident #218.
These deficient practices have the potential to affect residents in the facility receiving care by exposing
them to care that could lead to cross contamination and the spread of infection.
Findings included:
1. Review of Resident #19's Face Sheet, dated 06/11/2024, reflected resident was a [AGE] year-old female
admitted on [DATE]. Relevant diagnoses included type 2 diabetes mellitus with hyperglycemia (high blood
sugar), hypertensive heart disease with heart failure (a long-term condition that develops over many years
in people who have high blood pressure), chronic kidney disease stage 3, and peripheral vascular disease
(reduced circulation of blood to a body part, other than the brain or heart).
Review of Resident #19's Quarterly MDS Assessment, dated 06/18/2024, reflected Resident #19 had a
moderately cognitive impairment with a BIMS score of 12.
Review of Resident #19's Comprehensive Care Plan, dated 05/06/2024, reflected Resident #19 is at risk for
skin problems r/t impaired mobility, incontinence, diabetes and fragile skin from the aging process.
Interventions: Notify nurse immediately of any new areas of skin breakdown.
Observation and interview on 07/11/2024 at 8:45 AM revealed LVN A did not remove his gloves after insulin
medication preparation for Resident #19. He walked down the hallway without removing his gloves. LVN A
then proceeded to enter Resident #19's room without changing out gloves and then administered insulin.
He stated he was supposed to change out gloves but forgot to change them out.
2. Review of Resident #34's face sheet dated 07/12/24, revealed the resident was [AGE] year-old female
admitted on [DATE] and initially admitted on [DATE] with diagnose that including dysphagia (difficulty or
discomfort swallowing). Aphasia (a language disorder that affects how you communicate), cerebral
infarction (stroke), Alzheimer's (a brain disorder that slowly destroys memory and thinking skills), dementia
