Residents Affected - Few - The physician's order for the resident to be up in the chair during meals was not carried out for Resident 24. - The physician's order was not obtained and the care plan was not developed for the use of the wander guard for Resident 31. These failures had the potential for these residents to not receive the necessary care and services to meet their care needs. Findings: 1. Review of the facility's P&P titled Physician Orders revised on 11/2019 showed the physician's orders shall be obtained prior to the initiation of any medication or treatment. All the orders must be specific and complete with all the necessary details to carry out the prescribed order without any questions. Medical record review for Resident 24 was initiated on 3/25/25. Resident 24 was admitted to the facility on [DATE], and readmitted to the facility on [DATE]. Review of Resident 24's H&P examination dated 3/325, showed Resident 24's memory was impaired. Review of Resident 24's Physician's Orders for March 2025 showed an order dated 3/7/25, for the resident to be up in the chair for all the meals. On 3/26/25 at 0801 hours, an observation and concurrent interview was conducted with CNA 3 in Resident 24's room. Resident 24 was observed eating breakfast in bed and pointing at her wheelchair located in front of the foot of her bed. When CNA 3 asked Resident 24 if she wanted to transfer to the wheelchair, Resident 24 nodded her head yes. CNA 3 stated she would assist the resident to be up in the wheelchair. On 3/27/25 at 0756 hours, an observation and concurrent interview was conducted with CNA 4 in Resident 24's room. CNA 4 verified Resident 24 was eating breakfast in bed. CNA 4 stated Resident 24 should be up in the wheelchair for her meals.

On 3/28/25 at 1520 hours, a concurrent interview and medical record review was conducted with the DON. The DON verified Resident 41's recorded weight from admission date 2/14/25, was based from the acute care hospital record. The DON acknowledged the facility staff should have recorded Resident 41's weight at the time of admission. The DON verified all of the above findings. Based on observation, interview, medical record review, and the facility P&P review, the facility failed to ensure the appropriate services needed to maintain the acceptable parameters of nutritional status were provided for three of three final sampled resident (Residents 4, 31, and 32) reviewed for weight loss. * The facility failed to ensure the RD's recommendations on 3/14/25, were followed up with the physician and addressed in the Nutrition IDT when Resident 4 had a severe weight loss of 15 lbs in seven days. This failure had the potential for Resident 4 not to receive the necessary intervention to prevent further weight loss. * The facility failed to ensure the RD and IDT analyzed and implemented the necessary interventions to address Resident 32's unplanned severe weight loss of 16 lbs which was equivalent to 8.33% in 21 days. In addition, the physician and resident and/or their representative were not notified of Resident 32's unplanned significant weight loss of 16 lbs, 8.33% between 2/7/25 and 2/28/25. Resident 32's resident-centered plan of care was not revised to address Resident 32's severe weight losses 8.33% between 2/7/25 and 2/28/25. * The facility failed to ensure a care plan problem was developed for Resident 41's refusal of meals, the accuracy of the documentation on Resident 41's weight upon admission, and amount of food intake and fluid intakes were completed for Resident 41. These failures posed the risk for the residents' weight loss to not be managed timely. Findings: Review of the facility's P&P titled Nutrition revised dated 5/2019 showed it is the policy of this facility to ensure that all the residents maintain acceptable parameters of nutritional status, such as the body weight and protein levels, unless the resident's clinical condition demonstrates that this is not possible.

F 0693 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Few 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 observation, interview, medical record review, and facility P&P review, the facility failed to ensure the GT placement check was performed prior to starting the resident's enteral feeding for one of one final sample resident reviewed for tube feeding (Resident 32). This failure had the potential for the residents to develop complications related to the GT care and management, including tube dislodgement. Findings: Review of the facility's P&P titled Enteral Feedings-Safety Precautions revised 12/2011 showed the section for Preventing Aspiration showing to check enteral tube placement prior to each feeding and administration of medication. Review of the facility's P&P titled Enteral Tube Feeding via Continuous Pump dated 12/2011 showed the section for Steps in the Procedure showing to verify placement of the tube as follows: - Observe for a change in the external tube length marked at the time of the initial insertion X-ray. - Observe for signs of respiratory distress (if applicable). - Auscultate: attach 60 ml syringe containing approximately 10 ml air. Auscultate the abdomen (approximately three inches below the sternum) while injecting the air from the syringe into the tubing. Listen for whooshing sound to check the placement of the tube in the stomach. - Check pH of aspirate, if feeding has been interrupted for a few hours, aspirate a small amount from the stomach, observe the aspirate and then measure the pH (using pH strips). A pH of five or less suggests that the tube is placed in the stomach. However, pH of six or greater is not definitive of placement outside of the stomach. Further review of the P&P showed if any of the above suggests improper tube positioning, do not administer the feeding or medication; and to notify the charge nurse or physician. Medical record review for Resident 32 was initiated on 3/25/25. Resident 32 was admitted to the facility on [DATE]. Review of Resident 32's Order Summary Report showed the following physician's orders: - dated 2/7/25, to check the tube placement/patency before and after giving medications and before starting the tube feeding. - dated 3/25/25, for continuous Glucerna 1.5 (enteral feeding) at 75 ml/hr for 20 hours (to turn off at 0900 hours, and to start at 1300 hours). On 3/25/25 at 1517 hours, Resident 32 was observed lying in bed with enteral feeding connected; however, the enteral feeding was observed to be turned off.

Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm **NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on observation, interview, medical record review, and facility P&P review, the facility failed to ensure the necessary respiratory care and services were provided for two of two sampled residents (final sample resident, Residents 356 and nonsampled resident, Resident 705) reviewed for respiratory care. Residents Affected - Few * The facility failed to ensure the oxygen was administered as ordered by the physician to Resident 356. * The facility failed to ensure the nasal cannula tubing was dated and a storage bag was provided for Resident 705. These failures had the potential for these residents to not receive the appropriate respiratory care or developed respiratory infection which may negatively affect the residents' medical conditions. Findings: 1. Review of the facility's P&P titled Oxygen Administration revised 10/2010 showed the purpose of the procedure is to provide guidelines for safe oxygen administration. Further review of the P&P showed to verify that there is a physician order for the procedure and to review the physician's order or facility protocol for oxygen administration. Medical record review for Resident 356 was initiated on 3/25/25. Resident 356 was admitted to the facility on [DATE]. Review of Resident 356's Order Summary Report showed a physician's order dated 3/19/25, to administer the oxygen at two liters per minutes via nasal cannula continuously to keep the oxygen saturation level above 90%. Review of Resident 356's Care Plan dated 3/19/25, showed a care plan problem addressing the ADL self-care performance deficit. The interventions showed Resident 356 required staff assistance for bed mobility and transfers. Review of Resident 356's H&P examination dated 3/20/25, showed Resident 356 had no capacity to understand and make decisions. On 3/25/25 at 1232 hours, Resident 356 was observed lying in the bed. The oxygen was observed to be on at 3.5 liters per minutes and was not connected to the nasal cannula tubing. The nasal cannula tubing was observed on the bed, not on Resident 356 and was not connected to the oxygen machine. On 3/25/25 at 1234 hours, LVN 6 was called into the room of Resident 356. LVN 6 verified the above observation and stated Resident 356 required a continuous oxygen administration. LVN 6 further stated the nasal cannula should be on Resident 356's nose and connected to the oxygen machine. LVN 6 was observed checking Resident 356's oxygen saturation level using a pulse oximeter which showed 86% (normal range 95 -100 %). LVN 6 was then observed placing the nasal cannula on Resident 356 's nose and connected the tubing to the oxygen machine and started the oxygen at 2 liters per minute. LVN 6 again checked for the resident's oxygen saturation level which showed 93% with 2 liters per minute of the oxygen.
