Honor the resident's right to request, refuse, and/or discontinue treatment, to participate in or refuse to
participate in experimental research, and to formulate an advance directive.
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
interview and record review, the facility failed to ensure resident's medical records were updated to show
documented evidence that advance directives (AD - a legal document indicating resident preference on
end-of-life treatment decisions) were discussed with two (2) of three (3) sampled residents (Residents 30
and 72).
These deficient practices violated the resident's rights and/or representative's right to be fully informed of
the option to formulate their advanced directives.
Findings:
a. During a review of Resident 30's admission Record, the admission Record indicated Resident 30 was
originally admitted in the facility on 8/9/2024 and readmitted in the facility on 3/13/2025 with diagnoses
including psychosis (a severe mental condition in which thought, and emotions are so affected that contact
is lost with reality), dementia (a progressive state of decline in mental abilities), and muscle wasting and
atrophy.
During a review of Resident 30's History and Physical (H&P), dated 5/14/2025, the H&P indicated Resident
30 did not have the capacity to understand and make decisions.
During a review of Resident 30's Minimum Data Set (MDS - a resident assessment tool), dated 2/19/2025,
the MDS indicated Resident was able to understand others and make his need known and had moderately
impaired cognition (mental action or process of acquiring knowledge and understanding). The MDS further
indicated Resident 30 was independent with bed mobility and required setup or clean up assistance to
partial/moderate assistance from staff with all other activities of daily living (ADLs- activities such as
bathing, dressing and toileting a person performs daily).
During a review of Resident 30's Advance Healthcare Directive Acknowledgement Form, dated 3/26/2025,
the Advance Directive Acknowledgement Form indicated Resident 30 did not have an AD. The Advance
Directive Acknowledgement Form did not indicate if the resident/resident representative were provided the
information on the formulation of advance healthcare directive or if refused to be provided information.
During a concurrent interview and record review on 5/22/2025 at 9 a.m. with Licensed Vocational Nurse
(LVN) 3, Resident 30's Advance Healthcare Directive Acknowledgement Form, dated 3/26/2025, was
reviewed and LVN 3 stated the form indicated Resident 30 did not have an AD and did not indicate if the
resident/resident representative were provided the information on the formulation of advance

department was responsible in having the forms completed and filed in the chart. LVN 3 stated failure to
complete the Advance Healthcare Directive Acknowledgement Form violated the Resident 30's and/or his
representative the right to be informed to formulate an AD. LVN 3 stated if the Advance Healthcare Directive
Form was not completed, the staff would be unable to know what Resident 30's wishes were in the event of
loss of ability to make medical decisions.
During a concurrent interview and record review on 5/22/2025 at 9:59 a.m. with the Social Services Director
(SSD), Resident 30's Advance Healthcare Directive Acknowledgement Form, dated 3/26/2025, was
reviewed and the SSD stated the form indicated Resident 30 did not have an AD and the form was not
completed to indicate if information was provided to the resident/resident representative or if the
resident/resident representative refused the information. The SSD stated she is responsible in asking the
resident and/or their representative if they have an AD at least a day or two after admission. The SSD
stated if residents stated he/she did not have an AD, she will ask the resident if they are interested in
formulating an AD and if the resident/representative refused, she will offer to provide information. The SSD
stated the facility had violated the resident's right to formulate an AD by not ensuring the resident or
representative had received the information and were assisted to formulate one if needed.
During an interview on 5/22/2025 at 11:54 a.m. with the Director of Nursing (DON), the DON stated the
SSD is responsible in making sure the resident/representative were asked upon admission if they have an
AD, and the Advance Healthcare Directive Acknowledgement Form was completed. The DON stated if a
resident did not have an AD, the resident/representative should be provided information and offered
assistance regardless of if interested on formulating an AD or refused the information and documented in
the Advance Directive Acknowledgement Form. The DON stated the SSD should have ensured Resident
30's Advance Directive Acknowledgement Form was completed to ensure the information was provided to
the resident and/or representative and did not give the resident/representative the right to formulate an
advance directive.
During a review of the facility's recent policy and procedure (P&P) titled, Basic Record Review, last
reviewed on 4/4/2025, the P&P indicated to ensure that all medical records meet regulatory requirements

Immediately tell the resident, the resident's doctor, and a family member of situations (injury/decline/room,
etc.) that affect the resident.
Based on observation, interview, and record review, the facility failed to directly notify the primary physician
of a significant change in condition (major decline or improvement in a resident's status that will not resolve
itself without intervention) for one of four sampled residents (Resident 9) with limited range of motion [ROM,
full movement potential of a joint (where two bones meet)] and mobility (ability to move) on 2/14/2025 for
Resident 9's decreased mobility and increased pain with swelling in the right arm. This failure resulted in
Resident 9 not receiving intervention to determine the cause and provide treatment of the right arm pain.
Findings:
During a review of Resident 9's admission Record, the admission Record indicated the facility admitted
Resident 9 on 11/10/2023 under Hospice care (compassionate care for people who are near the end of life
provided at the person's home or within a health care facility). The admission Record indicated Resident 9's
diagnoses included dementia (progressive state of decline in mental abilities), diabetes mellitus ([DM]
disorder characterized by difficulty in blood sugar control and poor wound healing), epilepsy (abnormal
electrical activity in the brain marked by sudden, recurrent episodes of loss of consciousness or
uncontrolled body shaking), and stiffness of an unspecified joint.
During a review of Resident 9's Change in Condition (CIC) Evaluation, dated 2/14/2025, the CIC Evaluation
indicated Resident 9 had limited mobility of the right arm with pain, swelling, and inability to spread the
fingers. The CIC Evaluation indicated Resident 9's Hospice Coordinator (Hospice 1) was notified and will
have a Hospice nurse come to the facility to assess the resident.
During a review of Resident 9's Progress Notes, dated 2/17/2025 at 6:55 p.m., the Progress Notes
indicated Resident 9's Hospice company was contacted to follow up on their planned visit to address
Resident 9's change of condition from 2/14/2025 for right hand swelling and pain. The Progress Notes
indicated Resident 9's Hospice company would send a nurse the next morning (2/18/2025) to assess the
resident.
During a review of Resident 9's Progress Notes, dated 2/19/2025 at 1:21 p.m., the Progress Notes
indicated the facility received a call from Hospice 1 regarding Resident 9's right arm pain. The Progress
Notes indicated the charge nurse did another assessment of pain and reported it to Hospice 1. The
Progress Notes indicated Hospice 1 did not provide any new orders.
During a review of Resident 9's Minimum Data Set ([MDS] a federally mandated resident assessment tool),
dated 3/2/2025, the MDS indicated Resident 9 had unclear speech, had difficulty communicating words or
finishing thoughts but was able if prompted or given time, usually understood verbal content, and had
severely impaired cognition (clear ability to think, understand, learn, and remember). The MDS indicated
Resident 9 required supervision or touching assistance (helper provides verbal cues and/or touching and/or
steadying assistance as resident completes the activity) for eating, partial/moderate assistance (helper
does less than half the effort) for upper body dressing, and dependent (helper does all the effort, resident
does none of the effort to complete the activity, or the assistance of two or more helpers is required to
complete the activity) for toileting, showering, lower body dressing, rolling to either side in the bed,
sit-to-stand transfers, and chair/bed-to-chair transfers.

During a concurrent observation and interview on 5/20/2025 at 10:08 a.m. with Certified Nursing Assistant
1 (CNA 1) in Resident 9's room, Resident 9 was alert, awake, and sitting in a wheelchair. Resident 9 used
the left hand to stroke the hair of a baby doll, which was on Resident 9's lap. Resident 9 was observed not
moving the right arm and stated having pain throughout the right arm. CNA 1 stated Resident 9 has not
been using the right arm due to arthritis (painful inflammation and stiffness of the joints).
Residents Affected - Few
During an interview on 5/20/2025 at 3:20 p.m. with the Director of Rehabilitation (DOR), the DOR stated
Resident 9's Occupational Therapy ([OT] profession aimed to increase or maintain a person's capability of
participating in everyday life activities [occupations]) treatment session will start once the pain medications
took effect.
During a concurrent observation and interview on 5/20/2025 at 3:46 p.m. with the DOR in the therapy room,
Resident 9's OT treatment session was observed. Resident 9 was awake and sitting up in a Geri chair
(reclining chair that allows someone to get out of bed and sit comfortably in different positions while fully
supported). The DOR stated Resident 9's right arm required slow movement due to pain. Resident 9 had
some increased vocalizations while the DOR extended the right-hand finger joints. Resident 9 was
observed with increased vocalizations and shallow breathing when the DOR extended (straightened) and
bent Resident 9's right elbow. The DOR attempted to lift Resident 9's right arm at the shoulder joint.
Resident 9 was observed with increased vocalizations, increased yelling, and held onto the right arm using
the left hand during the DOR's attempts. Certified Nursing Assistant 4 (CNA 4) was present in the therapy
room and stated Resident 9 had pain in the right arm, especially the right shoulder since Resident 9 was
holding onto the right arm.
During a concurrent interview and record review on 5/21/2025 at 12:04 p.m. with Licensed Vocational Nurse
3 (LVN 3), Resident 9's CIC Evaluation, dated 2/14/2025, and Progress Notes, dated 2/17/2025 and
2/19/2025, were reviewed. LVN 3 stated Resident 9's CIC Evaluation, dated 2/14/2025, indicated Resident
9 had limited mobility and pain in the right arm. LVN 3 stated the facility contacted Hospice 1 and Resident
9's Family Member (FM 1) regarding Resident 9's change of condition. LVN 3 stated the Hospice company
was contacted again on 2/17/2025 to follow-up on Resident 9's change of condition and planned to visit
Resident 9 on the next day (2/18/2025). LVN 3 stated the Progress Notes, dated 2/19/2025 (five days after
the change of condition was identified), indicated Hospice 1 did not report any new orders. LVN 3 stated
Hospice 1 communicated with Resident 9's physician (MD 1) regarding Resident 9's change of condition.
LVN 3 stated the nursing standard of practice when a resident was having a change of condition included
notifying the physician who will provide additional orders if necessary. LVN 3 stated Resident 9's change of
condition for right arm pain and swelling was reported to Hospice 1 instead of MD 1. LVN 3 stated there
was no documentation indicating MD 1 was notified. LVN 3 stated Resident 9 could suffer and the
appropriate treatment may not have been provided since MD 1 was not notified.
During a telephone interview on 5/21/2025 at 1:33 p.m. with FM 1, FM 1 stated Resident 9 was
right-handed and started having pain in the right arm back in 2/2025. FM 1 stated another family member
visited Resident 9 in 2/2025 and reported to FM 1 that Resident 9 had pain in the right arm. FM 1 stated
she called the facility to report Resident 9's right arm pain to one of the nurses (unknown). FM 1 stated the
facility was going to have the physician assess the right arm.
During a telephone interview on 5/21/2025 at 3:07 p.m. with Hospice 1, Hospice 1 stated he was a
Registered Nurse.

During a telephone interview on 5/21/2025 at 3:27 p.m. with MD 1, MD 1 stated the physicians (in general)
depend on the facility's nurses to provide the report of a resident's status. MD 1 was provided with the
information in Resident 9's CIC Evaluation, dated 2/14/2025. MD 1 stated the recommendation would have
been to treat Resident 9, obtain an X-ray (image of the inside of the body) to wherever Resident 9 was
having pain, and to discuss the situation with the family.
Residents Affected - Few
During a concurrent interview and record review on 5/22/2025 at 12:23 p.m. with the Director of Nursing
(DON), Resident 9's CIC Evaluation, dated 2/14/2025, was reviewed. The DON stated the CIC Evaluation
indicated Hospice 1 was notified regarding Resident 9's right arm pain. The DON stated MD 1 was not
properly notified which could delay the resident's healing process and could lead to decline.
During a review of the facility's Policy and Procedure (P&P) titled, Change of Condition Notification, revised
on 4/1/2015 and reviewed on 4/4/2025, the P&P indicated the facility ensured the resident, family, and
physicians were informed of changes in a resident's condition in a timely manner. The P&P indicated a
change of condition related to Attending Physician notification is defined as when the Attending Physician
must be notified when any sudden and marked adverse change in the resident's condition which is
manifested by signs and symptoms different than usual denote a new problem complication or permanent
change in status and require a medical assessment, coordination and consultation with the Attending
Physician and a change in the treatment plan.

Honor the resident's right to a safe, clean, comfortable and homelike environment, including but not limited
to receiving treatment and supports for daily living safely.
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
observation, interview, and record review, the facility failed to provide a safe, comfortable, and homelike
environment for one (1) of three (3) sampled residents (Resident 34) reviewed for environment care area by
failing to ensure Resident 34's left floor mat did not have tears.
This deficient practice had the potential to negatively affect the resident's psychosocial well-being and
make the resident feel uncomfortable in their living space.
Findings:
During a review of Resident 34's admission Record, the admission Record indicated the facility admitted
the resident on 8/10/2021 with diagnoses including cerebral infarction (stroke, loss of blood flow to a part of
the brain), hemiplegia (total paralysis of the arm, leg, and trunk on the same side of the body) and
hemiparesis (weakness of the arm, leg, and trunk on the same side of the body) following cerebral
infarction affecting right dominant side, and schizophrenia (a mental illness that is characterized by
disturbances in thought).
During a review of Resident 34's History and Physical (H&P) dated 5/30/2024, the H&P indicated the
resident had the capacity to understand and make decisions.
During a review of Resident 34s MDS, dated [DATE], the MDS indicated Resident 34 sometimes able to
understand others and make his needs known but with severely impaired cognition (mental action or
process of acquiring knowledge and understanding). The MDS further indicate Resident 34 required
partial/moderate assistance to total assistance from staff with all activities of daily living (ADLs - basic tasks
that must be accomplished every day for an individual to thrive). The MDS indicated Resident 34 had an
impairment on one side of the upper and lower extremities.
During a review of Resident 34's Order Summary Report, the Order Summary Report indicated a
physician's order dated 12/6/2021 for bilateral floor mats for safety every shift.
During a review of Resident 34's fall risk evaluations dated 11/15/2024, 2/13/2025, and 5/16/2025, the fall

Level of Harm - Minimal harm
or potential for actual harm
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
observation, interview, and record review, the facility failed to complete a significant change (major decline
or improvement in the resident's status that will not normally resolve itself without further intervention by
staff or by implementing standard disease-related clinical interventions, that has an impact on more than
one area of the resident's health status, and requires interdisciplinary review or revision of the care plan, or
both) assessment for one of four sampled residents (Resident 9) with limited range of motion [ROM, full
movement potential of a joint (where two bones meet)] and mobility (ability to move) after Resident 9 was
discharged from Hospice care (compassionate care for people who are near the end of life provided at the
person's home or within a health care facility) on 3/24/2025. This failure had the potential to prevent
Resident 9 from receiving resident-centered care.
Residents Affected - Few
Cross reference F657.
Findings:
During a review of Resident 9's admission Record, the admission Record indicated the facility admitted
Resident 9 on 11/10/2023 under Hospice care. The admission Record indicated Resident 9's diagnoses
included dementia (progressive state of decline in mental abilities), diabetes mellitus ([DM] disorder
characterized by difficulty in blood sugar control and poor wound healing), epilepsy (abnormal electrical
activity in the brain marked by sudden, recurrent episodes of loss of consciousness or uncontrolled body
shaking), and stiffness of an unspecified joint.
During a review of Resident 9's physician's order, dated 3/24/2025, the physician's order indicated to
discontinue Hospice care due to extended prognosis (hospice-initiated discharge due to an improving or
stabilized condition).
During a review of Resident 9's Minimum Data Set ([MDS] a federally mandated resident assessment tool),
dated 4/4/2025, the MDS indicated Resident 9 had unclear speech, had difficulty communicating words or
finishing thoughts but was able if prompted or given time, usually understood verbal content, and had
severe impairment in cognition (clear ability to think, understand, learn, and remember). The MDS was
signed as completed on 5/20/2025.
During an observation on 5/20/2025 at 10:08 a.m. in Resident 9's room, Resident 9 was alert, awake, and
sitting in a wheelchair. Resident 9 used the left hand to stroke the hair of a baby doll, which was on
Resident 9's lap. Resident 9 had difficulty understanding and responding to questions.
During an interview on 5/22/2025 at 8:51 a.m. with the MDS Coordinator (MDSC), the MDSC stated the
purpose of the MDS (in general) was to gather information on individual residents to develop care plans
and to submit the information to the Federal database. The MDSC stated the comprehensive MDS
assessments were completed upon admission, annually, and after a significant change in status. The
MDSC stated that a resident's discontinuation from Hospice care was a significant change in status
requiring a comprehensive MDS assessment. The MDSC stated a significant change assessment should
be completed within 14 days of the identified significant change in status.
During a concurrent interview and record review on 5/22/2025 at 9:04 a.m. with the MDSC, Resident 9's
physician's order to discontinue Hospice care, dated 3/24/2025, and the MDS, dated [DATE], were
reviewed. The MDSC stated Resident 9 was discharged from Hospice care on 3/24/2025. The MDSC

Resident 9's significant change MDS should have been completed by 4/7/2025. The MDSC stated Resident
9's significant change MDS, dated [DATE], was completed on 5/20/2025 and submitted to the Federal
database on the date of the interview (5/22/2025). The MDSC stated the MDS was completed and
submitted late because MDSC did not know Resident 9 was discharged from Hospice care on 3/24/2025.
The MDSC stated late completion and submission of Resident 9's significant change MDS could result in
inaccurate information for the provision of care and late submission to the Federal database.
During a review of page 2-17 of the Resident Assessment Instrument (RAI) Manual, revised 10/1/2023, the
RAI Manual indicated the Significant Change in Status Assessment should be completed within the 14th

Residents Affected - Some
The deficient practice had the potential for delay of necessary care and services to residents.
Findings:
During a review of Resident 76's admission Record, the admission Record indicated the facility admitted
the resident on 12/31/2024, with diagnoses including spondylosis (arthritis of the spine), stenosis (the
narrowing of a passageway in the body that prevents a certain substance or structure [like blood or nerves]
from passing through as easily as it should), and type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM, a disorder characterized by
difficulty in blood sugar control and poor wound healing).
During a review of Resident 76's Order Summary Report, dated 1/21/2025, the Order Summary Report
indicated Local Coverage Determination (LCD - it is a decision made by a Medicare Administrative
Contractor [MAC] about whether a specific medical service or item is considered reasonable and necessary
and thus covered by Medicare within the MAC's jurisdiction) on 1/20/2025, custodial as of 1/21/2025 then

Equipment (DME - is a category of medical devices designed to assist individuals with disabilities, injuries,
or chronic health conditions): 3-in-1 commode.
During a review of Resident 76's Discharge Planning Review Form, signed date of 1/24/2025, the
Discharge Planning Review Form indicated the discharge was initiated by the facility, the reason for
discharge was resident condition improved. Recap of the resident's stay: Resident was admitted [DATE] for
nursing observation and rehab due to DM 2, lumbar stenosis (the narrowing of the spinal canal in the lower
back, specifically in the lumbar region), spinal stenosis (narrowing of the spinal column that causes
pressure on the spinal cord, or narrowing of the openings [called neural foramina] where spinal nerves
leave the spinal column), hyperlipidemia (HLD - an umbrella term for several health conditions that feature
high levels of lipids in the blood). The resident was independent prior to admission. The resident's initial
discharge goals are to return to the community. Discharge (D/C) to home with HH 1. The resident
medication reconciliation was done. Post discharge medication list has been discussed with family. Family
Member (FM) 2 was provided with the medication list on 1/24/2025.
During a review of Resident 76's MDS tab of Electronic Healthcare Record, dated 5/22/2025, the MDS tab
indicated assessment reference date (ARD - the end date of the observation period and provides a
common reference point for all team members participating in the assessment) of 1/9/2025, 133 days
overdue.
During a concurrent interview and record review on 5/22/2025 at 1:48 p.m. with the Minimum Data Set
Coordinator (MDSC), Resident 76's MDS tab in the Electronic Healthcare Record was reviewed and the
MDSC stated she has not done and submitted the discharge assessment for Resident 76, that is why it is
showing 133 days overdue. The MDSC stated the discharge assessment should have been done 14 days
after the discharge date . The MDSC stated it was important to complete and submit the discharge MDS

(follow-up treatment required after surgeries, fractures, or other interventions related to bones and muscles)
following surgical amputation (removal of a specified limb), acquired absence of left leg above knee,
acquired absence of right leg below knee, and dementia.
During a review of Resident 61's MDS, dated [DATE], the MDS indicated the resident makes self
understood and has the ability to understand others. The MDS indicated the resident had no injury, with
injury, and with major injury.
During a review of Resident 61's Post Fall Evaluation, dated 3/26/2025, the Post Fall Evaluation indicated
on 3/26/2025 at 12:10 p.m., Resident 61 had a fall in the activity room with right stump/right below knee
amputation site with abrasions measuring one (1) centimeter (cm - a unit of measurement) x 1 cm, and

During an interview on 5/19/2025 at 2:10 p.m. with Family Member (FM) 3, FM 3 stated Resident 61 had
fallen a few times but with no major injuries sustained.
During a concurrent interview and record review on 5/22/2025 at 2:27 p.m. with the MDSC, Resident 61's
MDS, dated [DATE], was reviewed and the MDSC stated Resident 61's MDS section for fall with major
injury should have been coded with none 0. The MDSC stated to answer the question on fall with major
injury, she would need to review from the last fall assessment, which was on 3/26/2025. The MDSC stated
Resident 61's MDS was coded inaccurately.
During an interview on 5/22/2025 at 1:49 p.m. with the DON, the DON stated Resident 61 did not sustain a
major injury and should be coded as none on the MDS. The DON stated Resident 61's MDS was not done
accurately. The DON stated the MDS assessment is for comprehensive picture and idea of the resident's
overall plan of care. The DON stated when the MDS is coded inaccurately the resident's overall plan of care
would look like the resident's major injury was not being addressed and was not addressed.
During a review of the facility's P&P titled, RAI Process - MDS Assessments, Processing and
Documentation, reviewed and approved on 4/4/2025, the P&P indicated that the purpose of this P&P is to
provide residents assessments that accurately depict and identify resident-specific issues and objectives as
required, while meeting state and deferral data submission requirements. The P&P indicated the RAI
process included an accurate reflection of the resident's status and a comprehensive assessment must
include skin condition.

Failing to accurately code the MDS assessment when Resident 61's fall was reviewed from the resident's
last fall assessment.
These deficient practices had the potential to cause confusion and delay in the delivery of necessary care
and services the resident needs.
Findings:
1.
During a review of Resident 84's admission Record, the admission Record indicated the facility admitted
the resident on 2/7/2025, with diagnoses including Alzheimer's disease (a disease characterized by a
progressive decline in mental abilities), history of falling, and major depressive disorder (a mood disorder
that causes a persistent feeling of sadness and loss of interest).
During a review of Resident 84's History and Physical (H&P), dated 2/11/2025, the H&P indicated the
resident did not have the capacity to understand and make decisions.
During a review of Resident 84's MDS, dated [DATE], the MDS indicated the resident was coded as
discharge assessment-return not anticipated and the type of discharge is unplanned. The MDS indicated
the resident was discharged on 2/21/2025 to home/community. The MDS indicated that the resident had
severely impaired cognitive skills (someone has significant difficulty with their mental abilities, impacting
their ability to think, remember, and understand things).
During a review of Resident 84's Physician's Order, dated 2/18/2025, the Physician's Order indicated local
coverage determination (LCD - is a decision made by a Medicare Administrative Contractor [MAC] on
whether a particular service or item is reasonable and necessary, and therefore covered by Medicare within

Residents Affected - Some
During a concurrent interview and record review on 5/22/2025 at 8:39 a.m. with the Minimum Data Set
Coordinator (MDSC), Resident 84's MDS, dated [DATE], was reviewed and the MDSC stated she coded
the type of discharge as unplanned. The MDSC stated she should have placed planned since the resident
was prepared for discharge earlier and appropriate referrals have been made for the resident. The MDSC
stated it was important to code the MDS accurately to ensure appropriate care is provided and no delays
could happen on the provision of healthcare services to Resident 84.
During an interview on 5/22/2025 at 11:54 a.m. with the Director of Nursing (DON), the DON stated the
MDSC should have coded the resident as planned discharged as the order was written for a few days
before the resident got discharged from the facility. The DON stated the facility was able to arrange for
health services that needed to be provided at his home. The DON stated it was important to accurately
code the discharge type of Resident 84 to give an accurate picture of the resident's discharge status and to
prevent delays in care.
During a review of the facility's recent policy and procedure (P&P) titled, RAI Process, last reviewed on
4/4/2025, the P&P indicated to provide resident-assessments that accurately depict and identify
resident-specific issues and objectives as required, while meeting state and federal guidelines and data
submission requirements.

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 develop and/or implement person-centered
care plans (tool that ensures residents receive personalized, comprehensive, and goal-oriented care in a
nursing home setting) for eight of 35 sampled residents (Resident 9, 13, 17, 43, 47, 186, and 236) by failing
to:
1. Implement Resident 9's care plan to elevate the right arm to a pillow and to monitor the right arm for any
skin changes including discoloration.
2. Develop Resident 17's care plan for the Restorative Nursing Aide (RNA - nursing aide program that helps
residents to maintain their function and joint mobility [ability to move]) to apply a left hand roll (rolled towel
positioned in the palm of the hand) and both elbow extension (straightening) splints (material used to
restrict, protect, or immobilize a part of the body to support function, assist and/or increase range of
motion).
3. Develop and implement Resident 13 and 43's care plan for physical restraints (the use of a manual hold
to restrict freedom of movement of all or part of a person's body, or to restrict normal access to the person's
body) including the use of restraints in bed with bolsters/concave mattress (a type of mattress designed
with raised sides to prevent patients from rolling or falling out of bed).
4. Develop a care plan for Resident 186 and 236's use of antibiotics (medication used to treat infection).
5. Develop a care plan for Resident 47's use of anticoagulants (medication used to treat blood clots).
These failures had the potential to prevent Resident 9 from receiving intervention to prevent injury to the
right arm and to prevent Resident 17 from receiving intervention to prevent range of motion ([ROM] full
movement potential of a joint) limitations. These failures also had a potential for delayed provision of
necessary care and services and adverse effects (an undesired effect of a drug or other type of treatment,
such as surgery) to Resident 13, 43, 186, 236, and 47.
Findings:
a. During a review of Resident 9's admission Record, the admission Record indicated the facility admitted
Resident 9 on 11/10/2023 under Hospice care (compassionate care for people who are near the end of life
provided at the person's home or within a health care facility). The admission Record indicated Resident 9's
diagnoses included dementia (progressive state of decline in mental abilities), diabetes mellitus (DM disorder characterized by difficulty in blood sugar control and poor wound healing), epilepsy (abnormal
electrical activity in the brain marked by sudden, recurrent episodes of loss of consciousness or
uncontrolled body shaking), and stiffness of unspecified joint.
During a review of Resident 9's Change in Condition (CIC) Evaluation, dated 2/14/2025, the CIC Evaluation
indicated Resident 9 had limited mobility of the right arm with pain, swelling, and inability to spread the
fingers. The CIC Evaluation indicated Resident 9's Hospice Coordinator (Hospice 1) was notified and will
have a hospice nurse come to the facility to assess the resident.

During a review of Resident 9's Care Plan Report for limited mobility and pain on the right arm with mild
swelling observed on the right fingers, initiated on 2/14/2025, the Care Plan Report indicated the
interventions included to monitor for discomfort with movement and pain radiation (pain perceived to extend
or spread out from one area of the body to another), elevate right arm with a pillow to help with the swelling
on the right hand, offer pain medication to help with pain, and monitor for any new changes such as skin
discoloration on the right hand/arm.
During a review of Resident 9's physician's orders, dated 3/24/2025, the physician's orders indicated to
discontinue Hospice care due to extended prognosis (hospice-initiated discharge due to an improving or
stabilized condition).
During a concurrent observation and interview on 5/20/2025 at 10:08 a.m. with Certified Nursing Assistant
(CNA) 1 in Resident 9's room, Resident 9 was alert, awake, and sitting in a wheelchair. Resident 9 used the
left hand to stroke the hair of a baby doll, which was on Resident 9's lap. Resident 9 did not move the right
arm and stated having pain throughout the right arm. CNA 1 stated Resident 9 has not been using the right
arm due to arthritis (painful inflammation and stiffness of the joints).
During an interview on 5/20/2025 at 3:20 p.m. with the Director of Rehabilitation (DOR), the DOR stated
Resident 9's Occupational Therapy (OT - profession aimed to increase or maintain a person's capability of
participating in everyday life activities [occupations]) and Physical Therapy (PT - profession aimed in the
restoration, maintenance, and promotion of optimal physical function) treatment session will start once the
pain medications took effect.
During a concurrent observation and interview on 5/20/2025 at 3:46 p.m. with the DOR in the therapy room,
Resident 9 participated in an OT treatment session. Resident 9 was awake and sat up in a Geri chair
(reclining chair that allows someone to get out of bed and sit comfortably in different positions while fully
supported). The DOR stated Resident 9's right arm required slow movement due to pain. Resident 9 had
some increased vocalizations while the DOR extended the right-hand finger joints. Resident 9 had
increased vocalizations and shallow breathing when the DOR extended (straightened) and bent Resident
9's right elbow. The DOR attempted to lift Resident 9's right arm at the shoulder joint. Resident 9 had
increased vocalizations, increased yelling, and held onto the right arm using the left hand during the DOR's
attempts. CNA 4 was present in the therapy room and stated Resident 9 had pain in the right arm,
especially the right shoulder since Resident 9 was holding onto the right arm.
During an observation on 5/20/2025 at 3:55 p.m. in the therapy gym, Resident 9 participated in a PT
treatment session. Physical Therapist (PT) 1 performed passive range of motion ([PROM] movement of a
joint through the ROM with no effort from person) exercises to both legs. Resident 9 had vocalized
increased pain on the right arm as PT 1 elevated the right arm on a pillow at the end of the session.
Resident 9's outer side of the right elbow had skin discoloration.
During an observation on 5/21/2025 at 8:11 a.m. in Resident 9's room, Resident 9 was sleeping and lying
on the right side of the body.
During an interview on 5/21/2025 at 12:53 a.m. with CNA 3, CNA 3 stated Resident 9 was cleaned this
morning and did not have any open skin areas. CNA 3 stated Resident 9 complained of right shoulder pain
especially during movement.

with a diagnosis of sepsis. The IP stated a care plan should have been created on sepsis and the use of
antibiotic ertapenem within 72 hours upon admission. The IP stated care plan for sepsis was not timely
created and did not indicate use of ertapenem. The IP stated the importance of creating a care plan was to
plan the intervention to Resident 186 for a better outcome. The IP stated late care plan can result in
Resident 186 not getting the proper care and treatment causing more complication of sepsis.
During a review of Resident 236's admission Record, the admission Record indicated the facility initially
admitted Resident 236 on 11/18/2024, and readmitted on [DATE] ,with diagnoses that included acute
respiratory failure with hypoxia (a life-threatening condition where the lungs cannot provide enough oxygen
to the blood, leading to a low blood oxygen level and potentially hypoxia at the tissue level), unspecified
pneumonia and unspecified dementia.
During a review of Resident 236's H&P, dated 1/15/2025, the H&P indicated Resident 236 was unable to
make medical decisions.
During a review of Resident 236's Order Summary Report, dated 3/1/2025, the Order Summary Report

measurement, used for medication dosage and/or amount) tablet, give one tablet by mouth two times a day
for pneumonia for seven days.
During a review of Resident 236's MDS, dated [DATE], the MDS indicated Resident 236's cognitive skills for
daily decisions were severely impaired. The MDS indicated Resident 236 was on an antibiotic.
During a review of Resident 236's Medication Administration Record (MAR - a daily documentation record
used by a licensed nurse to document medications and treatments given to a resident), dated 3/2025, the
MAR indicated Resident 236 received Zyvox 600 mg tablet two times a day for pneumonia from 3/1/2025,
at 9 p.m., and followed on 3/3/2025, at 9 p.m., to 3/8/2025, at 9 a.m.
During a concurrent interview and record review on 5/21/2025 at 7:56 a.m. with the IP, Resident 236's
Order Summary Report, dated 3/1/2025, and Care Plan for pneumonia, dated 3/7/2025, were reviewed.
The IP stated the care plan on pneumonia was created late. The IP stated care plan should have been
created within 72 hours after the antibiotic order. The IP stated the facility failed to create a care plan timely

**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
observation, interview, and record review, the facility failed to revise the person-centered care plans (tool
that ensures residents receive personalized, comprehensive, and goal-oriented care in a nursing home
setting) for three of 35 sampled residents (Resident 9 and 17) by failing to:
a. Revise Resident 9's care plan after experiencing a significant change (major decline or improvement in
the resident's status that will not normally resolve itself without further intervention by staff or by
implementing standard disease-related clinical interventions, that has an impact on more than one area of
the resident's health status, and requires interdisciplinary review or revision of the care plan, or both),
including discharge of Hospice care (compassionate care for people who are near the end of life provided
at the person's home or within a health care facility) on 3/24/2025.
b. Revise Resident 17's care plan after completion of the quarterly MDS on 5/7/2025.
These failures had the potential for Resident 9 and 17 to receive inadequate care.
Findings:
a. During a review of Resident 9's admission Record, the admission Record indicated the facility admitted
Resident 9 on 11/10/2023 under Hospice care. The admission Record indicated Resident 9's diagnoses
included dementia (progressive state of decline in mental abilities), diabetes mellitus (DM - disorder
characterized by difficulty in blood sugar control and poor wound healing), epilepsy (abnormal electrical
activity in the brain marked by sudden, recurrent episodes of loss of consciousness or uncontrolled body
shaking), and stiffness of unspecified joint.
During a review of Resident 9's care plan titled, Hospice Care, initiated 7/1/2024, the care plan
interventions included to adjust the provision of activities of daily living (ADLs - activities such as bathing,
dressing and toileting a person performs daily) to compensate for resident's changing abilities, work
cooperatively with the hospice team to ensure the resident's spiritual, emotional, intellectual, and physical
and social needs were met, and to work with nursing staff to provide maximum comfort for the resident.
During a review of Resident 9's physician's order, dated 3/24/2025, the physician's order indicated to
discontinue Hospice care due to extended prognosis (hospice-initiated discharge due to an improving or
stabilized condition).
During a review of Resident 9's Minimum Data Set (MDS - a resident assessment tool), dated 4/4/2025, the
MDS indicated Resident 9 had unclear speech, had difficulty communicating words or finishing thoughts but
was able if prompted or given time, usually understood verbal content, and had severe impairment in
cognition (clear ability to think, understand, learn, and remember). The MDS was signed as completed on
5/20/2025.
During an observation on 5/20/2025 at 10:08 a.m. in Resident 9's room, Resident 9 was alert, awake, and
sitting in a wheelchair. Resident 9 used the left hand to stroke the hair of a baby doll, which was on
Resident 9's lap. Resident 9 had difficulty understanding and responding to questions.

physician's order to discontinue Hospice care, dated 3/24/2025, the MDS, dated [DATE], and Resident 9's
care plan titled, Hospice Care, were reviewed. The MDSC stated Resident 9 was discharged from Hospice
care on 3/24/2025 but did not know Resident 9 was discharged from Hospice until Resident 9 started
receiving therapy services. The MDSC stated Resident 9's significant change MDS assessment should
have been completed by 4/7/2025 and the care plan should have been revised after the completion of the
MDS. The MDSC stated Resident 9's care plan indicated Resident 9 was receiving Hospice care until the
date of the interview (5/22/2025) when the MDSC revised the care plan.
During a review of the facility's Policy and Procedure (P&P) titled, Comprehensive Person-Centered Care
Planning, dated 11/2018 and reviewed on 4/4/2025, the P&P indicated the comprehensive care plan will be

to apply both knee extension splints for five hours as tolerated, five times per week.
During a review of Resident 17's OT Discharge summary, dated [DATE], the OT Discharge
Recommendations included RNA to provide PROM to both arms, five times per week, and to apply both
elbow extension splints, five times per week.
During a review of Resident 17's MDS, dated [DATE], the MDS indicated Resident 17 did not have any
speech, rarely expressed needs and wants, rarely understood verbal content, and was severely impaired
for daily decision making. The MDS indicated Resident 17 had functional ROM limitations (limited ability to
move a joint that interferes with daily functioning, including activities of daily living, or places the resident at
risk of injury) in both arms and legs and dependent for oral hygiene, toileting, dressing, bathing, rolling to
both legs, transferring from lying to sitting on the side of the bed, and chair/bed-to-chair transfers. The MDS
was completed on 5/13/2025.
During a concurrent observation and interview on 5/21/2025 at 8:59 a.m. with RNA 2 and RNA 4 in
Resident 17's room, Resident 17 participated in an RNA session. Resident 17 was laid in bed with the
head-of-bed elevated, turned toward the right side, and did not speak. RNA 2 stood on the left side of
Resident 17's bed while RNA 4 stood on the right side. RNA 2 and RNA 4 turned Resident 17 onto the
back for the RNA session. RNA 2 provided PROM on the left shoulder, elbow, and wrist. RNA 2 held
Resident 17's wrist while RNA 4 provided PROM on the left wrist and fingers. RNA 4 stated Resident 17's
left-hand middle, ring, and small fingers were tighter with less ROM than the index finger. RNA 2 rolled a
small hand towel and placed it in Resident 17's left palm, positioning the fingers away from the palm, and
applied the left elbow splint. RNA 2 then provided PROM to the left hip, knee, and ankle. RNA 4 performed
PROM to the right hip, knee, ankle. RNA 2 and 4 applied both knee splints. RNA 4 performed PROM to the
right shoulder, elbow and hand. RNA 4 applied the right elbow extension splint. RNA 2 and RNA 4 turned
Resident 17 toward the right side at the end of the session.
During an interview on 5/21/2025 at 9:33 a.m. with RNA 2 and RNA 4, RNA 2 stated Resident 17 was seen
for PROM to both arms and legs and application of the left hand roll, both elbow extension splints, and both
knee splints.
During a concurrent interview and record review on 5/22/2025 at 11:34 a.m. with the MDSC, Resident 17's
MDS, dated [DATE], and care plans were reviewed. The MDSC stated Resident 17's MDS indicated both
arms and legs had ROM limitations. The MDSC reviewed Resident 17's care plan and stated there was a
care plan to address both leg ROM limitations with PROM to both legs and application of both knee splints.
The MDSC stated Resident 17 did not have a care plan to address ROM limitations to both arms. The
MDSC stated Resident 17's care plans were supposed to be updated after the completion of the MDS. The
MDSC stated Resident 17's care plans have not been revised since 3/20/2025. The MDSC stated Resident
17 did not have a care plan to address both arm limitations since the care plans were not reviewed and
revised after completion of the MDS.
During a review of the facility's P&P titled, Comprehensive Person-Centered Care Planning, dated 11/2018
and reviewed on 4/4/2025, the P&P indicated the comprehensive care plan will be reviewed and revised by
the IDT after each MDS assessment.

During an interview on 5/22/2025 at 12:05 p.m. with the DON, the DON stated the licensed nurses need to
rotate the administration sites for insulin to promote or maintain skin integrity and prevent lipodystrophy. The
DON stated the absorption of the medication can be affected by not absorbing the medication properly
which may lead to hypoglycemia or hyperglycemia. The DON stated Resident 32's administration sites for
insulin should have been rotated to prevent lipodystrophy which may lead to the medication not being
absorbed properly and cause hyperglycemia.
During a review of the facility's recent P&P titled Medication Administration of Injectable Medications, last
reviewed on 4/4/2025, the P&P indicated a purpose to provide guidelines for the administration of injectable
medications. The P&P further indicated:
1. General Information:
d. If a series of injections are to be given to the same resident, the injection sites shall be rotated to ensure
adequate absorption and lessen discomfort. Specific injection sites shall be noted when the medication is
charted.
During a review of the facility provided manufacturer's guideline for Insulin Lispro Injection dated 1996, the
manufacturer's guideline indicated to rotate injection sites to reduce risk of lipodystrophy and localized
cutaneous amyloidosis.
During a review of the facility provided manufacturer's guideline for insulin glargine injection dated 2000, the
manufacturer's guideline indicated to rotate injection sites to reduce risk of lipodystrophy and localized
cutaneous amyloidosis.
Based on interview and record review, the facility's licensed nursing staff failed to provide care in
accordance with professional standards to four of five sampled residents (Residents 36, 43, 47, and 32)
reviewed for unnecessary medications by failing to rotate (a method to ensure repeated injections are not
administered in the same area) subcutaneous (sq - beneath the skin) insulin (a hormone that removes
excess sugar from the blood, can be produced by the body or given artificially via medication)
administration sites.
These deficient practices had the potential for adverse effect (unwanted, unintended result) of the same site
subcutaneous administration of insulin such as excessive bruising, lipodystrophy (abnormal distribution of
fat) and cutaneous amyloidosis (is a condition in which clumps of abnormal proteins called amyloids build
up in the skin).

(LVN) 3, Resident 36's Medical Diagnosis, Order Summary Report, Location of Administration of Insulin,
dated 3/2025 to 5/2025, and Care Plans were reviewed. LVN 3 stated there was an order for insulin Lispro
on the chart and there were multiple instances in the Location of Administration of Insulin that licensed
nurses did not rotate insulin administrations sites. LVN 3 stated the licensed staff should have rotated the
insulin sites of administration to prevent lipodystrophy on Resident 36. LVN 3 stated administering insulin in
the areas of lipodystrophy decreases the absorption of the medication which could cause
hypo/hyperglycemia on resident 36.

Provide appropriate pressure ulcer care and prevent new ulcers from developing.
Level of Harm - Minimal harm
or potential for actual harm
Based on observation, interview, and record review, the facility failed to ensure residents received care
consistent with professional standards of practice to prevent pressure injury (also called pressure ulcer, the
breakdown of skin integrity due to pressure) for one of one sampled resident (Resident 336) investigated
under pressure injury by failing to ensure Resident 336's low air loss mattress (LALM - a mattress that
helps prevent and treat pressure injuries by circulating air and relieving pressure on the body) was
according to resident's weight or comfort.
Residents Affected - Few
This deficient practice had the potential for the development and worsening of pressure injuries to
residents.
Findings:
During a review of Resident 336's Face Sheet, the Face Sheet indicated the facility admitted Resident 336
on 5/16/2025, with diagnoses including pressure ulcer stage 4 (full-thickness skin and tissue loss with
exposed muscle, tendon, ligament, cartilage, or bone) of sacral (a large, triangular bone at the bottom of
the spine) region, resistance to multiple antibiotics (medicines that help your body fight off infections), and
contact with and exposure to other communicable diseases (an illness that can be spread from one person
to another, either directly or indirectly).
During a review of Resident 336's History and Physical (H&P-a medical examination that involves a doctor
taking a patient's medical history, performing a physical exam, and documenting their findings), dated
5/282025, the H&P indicated Resident 336 had the capacity to understand and make decisions. The H&P
further indicated Resident 336 had multiple ulcers and pressure ulcer stage 4 of the sacral region.
During a review of Resident 336's Clinical admission Assessment form dated 5/16/2025, the Clinical
admission Assessment form indicated that Resident 336 was alert and able to understand and be
understood when speaking.
During a review of Resident 336's baseline care plan (CP) dated 5/16/2025, the baseline CP indicated
Resident 336 had an intact cognition (mental action or process of acquiring knowledge and understanding)
functional status required total assistance from staff with all activities of daily living (ADLs - basic tasks that
must be accomplished every day for an individual to thrive).
During an observation on 5/20/2025 at 8:40 a.m. inside Resident 336's room, observed Resident 336 lying
in bed, awake, and responds appropriately. Observed Resident 336's LALM with dial for the setting at 350
pounds (lbs - a unit of measurement).
During a concurrent observation and interview on 5/20/2025 at 8:45 a.m. inside Resident 336's room with
Licensed Vocational Nurse (LVN) 7, LVN 7 stated Resident 336's LALM setting was set at 350 lbs. which is
the firmest setting. LVN 7 stated LALM should be set according to the resident's weight and/or comfort.
When asked, Resident 336 stated his bed was too hard to lay down on. LVN 7 stated Resident 336's LALM
should be set according to the resident's weight of 124 lbs. as the setting of 350 lbs. was not comfortable as
verbalized by Resident 336. LVN 7 stated if Resident 336's LALM was too firm, it placed Resident 336 at
risk for development of new pressure injuries or worsening of the current pressure injuries.

During an interview on 5/22/2025 at 4 p.m. with the Director of Nursing (DON), the DON stated the licensed
nurses are responsible to ensure that the LALM setting was set according to weight and/or comfort of the
residents. The DON stated if the LALM is not set according to the resident's weight and/or comfort, there is
a potential for the pressure injury to worsen or develop new ones. The DON stated Resident 336's LALM
should have been set according to his weight of 124 lbs as the resident was a very high risk for worsening
of pressure ulcers due to mobility issues. The DON stated setting the LALM to the maximum setting of 350
lbs placed Resident 336 at risk for development and/or worsening of pressure ulcers and cause discomfort.
During a review of the facility-provided manufacturer's guideline on Low Air Loss Mattress (LALM) 1,
undated, the manufacturer's guideline indicated the mattress is indicated for the prevention and treatment
of any and all stage pressure ulcers when used in conjunction with comprehensive pressure ulcer
management program. The manufacturer's guideline further indicated to determine the patient's weight and
set the control knob to that weight setting on the control unit.
During a review of the facility's recent policy and procedure (P&P) titled, Pressure Ulcer Management, last
reviewed on 4/4/2025, the P&P indicated:
Upon admission, the facility will perform a skin assessment of each resident that includes checking for the
presence of pressure ulcers or proneness to their development.
A resident who has a pressure ulcer will receive necessary treatment and services to promotes healing,
prevent infection and prevent new pressure ulcers from developing.
Per Attending Physician Order, the nursing staff will initiate treatment and utilize interventions for pressure
redistribution.

During a review of Resident 34's H&P, dated 5/30/2024, the H&P indicated the resident had the capacity to
understand and make decisions.
Residents Affected - Some
During a review of Resident 34's MDS, dated [DATE], the MDS indicated Resident 34 sometimes was able
to understand others and make his needs known but with severely impaired cognition (mental action or
process of acquiring knowledge and understanding). The MDS further indicate Resident 34 required
partial/moderate assistance to total assistance from staff with all activities of daily living (ADLs - basic tasks
that must be accomplished every day for an individual to thrive). The MDS indicated Resident 34 had an
impairment on one side of the upper and lower extremities.
During a review of Resident 34's Order Summary Report, the Order Summary Report indicated a
physician's order dated 12/6/2021 for bilateral floor mats for safety every shift.
During a review of Resident 34's fall risk evaluations dated 11/15/2024, 2/13/2025, and 5/16/2025, the fall
risk evaluations indicated Resident 34 was a risk for falls.
During a review of Resident 34's CP on risk for falls initiated on 10/22/2022, the CP indicated to provide an
environment that supports minimized hazards over which the facility has control as one of the interventions
to minimize complications associated with falls.
During an observation on 5/19/20205 at 9:57 a.m., inside Resident 34's room, observed Resident 34 lying
in bed asleep with bilateral floor mats. Observed Resident 34's left floor mat with the overbed table placed
on the top.
During a concurrent observation and interview on 5/20/2025 at 2:05 p.m. inside Resident 34's room with
Licensed Vocational Nurse (LVN) 2, LVN 2 stated Resident 34's overbed table was placed on top of the left
floor mat and left a dent and difficult to maneuver when attempted to remove rearrange placement of the
table. LVN 2 stated the wheels of the overbed table left a dent and got caught with the type of material of
the floor mat, made the overbed table unstable which could topple over on the resident. LVN 2 stated
Resident 34's overbed table should have not been placed on top of the floor mat as it defeated the purpose
of protecting the resident by reducing the impact of a fall incident causing injury.
During an interview on 5/22/2025, at 11:54 a.m. with the DON, the DON stated it is important to ensure
there were no furniture or medical equipment on top of the resident's floor mat to prevent injury to the
residents in case of a fall incident. The DON stated instead of landing on the soft surface of the fall mat to
reduce the impact of the fall, the resident can land on the hard surface of the furniture or medical
equipment on top of the fall mat increasing the likelihood of injuries such as fractures, and skin lacerations.
The DON stated Resident 34's overbed table should have not been placed on top of the floor mat. The
DON further stated placing heavy furniture or medical equipment on top of the fall mat can damage the fall
mat by permanently causing a dent on the mat reducing the mat's ability to decrease the fall impact.

F 0690
Level of Harm - Minimal harm
or potential for actual harm
Residents Affected - Some
Provide appropriate care for residents who are continent or incontinent of bowel/bladder, appropriate
catheter care, and appropriate care to prevent urinary tract infections.
Based on observation, interview, and record review, the facility failed to ensure residents who were
incontinent of bladder received services and assistance for one of two sampled residents (Resident 41)
reviewed for bladder and bowel incontinence by failing to label the urinal bottle (a container used to collect
urine and is made for either male or female anatomy) with the name and room number of the resident.
The deficient practice had the potential for residents to cross-contamination (the physical movement or
transfer of harmful bacteria from one person, object or place to another) and to develop urinary tract
infection (UTI - an infection of the urinary system, which includes the kidneys, ureters, bladder, and urethra)
due to switching of urinals.
Findings:
During a review of Resident 41's admission Record, the admission Record indicated the facility admitted
the resident on 5/10/2022, and readmitted the resident on 2/28/2025, with diagnoses including acute
pyelonephritis (a kidney infection that happens suddenly and can cause inflammation and damage to the
kidneys), benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH - an enlarged prostate, which is a gland in men located just
below the bladder), and type two (2) diabetes mellitus (DM - a disorder characterized by difficulty in blood
sugar control and poor wound healing) with diabetic chronic kidney disease (CKD - a long-term condition
where the kidneys do not work as well as they should).
During a review of Resident 41's History and Physical (H&P), dated 12/18/2024, the H&P indicated the

Provide safe and appropriate respiratory care for a resident when needed.
Level of Harm - Minimal harm
or potential for actual harm
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
observation, interview, and record review, the facility failed to ensure respiratory care provided to residents
were consistent with professional standards of practice for one of one sampled resident (Resident 81)
reviewed for respiratory care by:
Residents Affected - Few
1.
Failing to ensure the oxygen via nasal cannula (NC - a device that gives additional oxygen [supplemental
oxygen or oxygen therapy] through the nose) was administered as ordered for Resident 81.
2.
Failing to ensure humidification (the process of adding moisture to the air) of oxygen was provided when
oxygen therapy was set at 5 LPM.
These deficient practices had a potential for residents to develop complications such as worsening of
chronic obstructive pulmonary disease exacerbation (COPD - a chronic lung disease that causes difficulty
in breathing) leading to shortness of breath, coughing, and desaturation (decrease in oxygen blood levels).
Findings:
During a review of Resident 81's admission Record, the admission Record indicated the facility originally
admitted the resident on 4/6/2025 and readmitted on [DATE] with diagnoses including COPD, pneumonia
(an infection/inflammation of the lungs), and cute respiratory failure (a life-threatening condition where there
is not enough oxygen or too much carbon dioxide in the body) with hypoxia (low levels of oxygen supply to
the body's organs and tissues).
During a review of Resident 81's History and Physical (H&P), dated 4/25/2025, the H&P indicated the
resident can make needs known but can not make medical decisions.
During a review of Resident 81's Minimum Data Set (MDS - a resident assessment tool) dated 4/30/2025,
the MDS indicated the resident makes self understood and has the ability to understand others.
During a review of Resident 81's Physician Order, dated 4/24/2025, the Physician Order indicated oxygen
at two (2) liters per minute (LPM-a unit of measurement) via nasal cannula to keep oxygen saturation above
92 percent (%- a unit of measurement) as needed (PRN).
During a review of Resident 81's Care Plan with focus on the resident's altered respiratory stature/difficulty
breathing, dated 4/29/2025, the Care Plan included goals to maintain normal breathing and included
interventions to provide oxygen settings as tolerated.
During a concurrent observation and interview on 5/19/2025 at 9:26 a.m. with Resident 81, at Resident 81's
bedside, the resident's nasal cannula tubing was wrapped around the left side rail. Resident 81 stated she
wears the oxygen all the time and removes it from time to time to breathe without it. Resident 81 stated she
just removed her oxygen cannula. Observed oxygen concentrator (a medical device that extracts and

delivered oxygen moist) noted.
During a concurrent observation and interview on 5/19/2025 at 11:25 a.m. with Licensed Vocational Nurse
(LVN) 2, at Resident 81's bedside, LVN 2 checked the resident's oxygen saturation while resident was on
room air. LVN 2 stated the oxygen concentrator setting of Resident 81 was set at 5 LPM and did not have a
humidifier. LVN 2 stated she would need to check the order if the resident's oxygen need a humidifier. LVN
2 unwrapped the resident's nasal cannula tubing from the left side rail and put on the same nasal cannula
on the resident with oxygen set at 5 LPM.
During a concurrent interview and record review on 5/19/2025 at 11:37 p.m. with LVN 2, reviewed Resident
81's Medication Administration Record, for May 2025, LVN 2 stated the order indicated oxygen at two (2)
LPM PRN keep oxygen saturation above 92%. LVN 2 stated there was no physician's order for oxygen at 5
LPM. LVN 2 stated there should be an order to administer 5 LPM oxygen to Resident 81. LVN 2 stated it is
important to follow physician's order because they cannot treat patients without an order. LVN 2 stated the
resident could experience respiratory failure when oxygen is administered at 5 LPM without an order. LVN 2
stated this could affect the resident's blood pressure and respiratory rate.
During an interview on 5/22/2025 at 9:13 a.m. with LVN 3, LVN 3 stated as a licensed nurse, she would ask
the resident why the resident needed 5 LPM of oxygen. LVN 3 stated she would then notify the physician
and monitor the resident for the oxygen use. LVN 3 stated that humidification is required for oxygen therapy
setting at more than 5 LPM so it would not dry the nostrils and may cause skin breakdown. LVN 3 stated
the use of humidifier would need a physician's order.
During an interview on 5/22/2025 at 1:41 p.m., with the Director of Nursing (DON), the DON stated the LVN
should have notified the physician that Resident 81 was on 5 LPM of oxygen and should have lowered the
setting to 2 LPM as ordered. The DON stated the LVN should have monitored and assessed the resident
when the resident received 5 LPM of oxygen. The DON stated this is done to make sure the resident is not
experiencing any adverse reaction to the high flow oxygen.
During a review of the facility's policy and procedure (P&P) titled, Oxygen Therapy, reviewed and approved
on 4/4/2025, the P&P indicated oxygen is administered under safe and sanitary conditions to meet resident
needs. The P&P indicated licensed nursing staff will administer oxygen as prescribed. The P&O indicated
the administration of oxygen:
Administer oxygen per physician orders.
Obtain oxygen saturation levels as ordered by the physician. If oxygen saturation falls below the level
identified by the physician, the physician will be notified immediately.
Oxygen titration orders will have parameters specified by the physician.

lung disease causing difficulty in breathing), dysphagia (difficulty swallowing), contracture (a
stiffening/shortening at any joint, that reduces the joint's range of motion) of muscle multiple sites.
During a review of Resident 5's MDS, dated [DATE], the MDS indicated the resident usually makes
self-understood and usually understands others.
During a review of Resident 5's Physician Order, dated 12/19/2024, the Physician Order indicated:
tramadol HCl oral tablet 25 mg, give one tablet by mouth every six hours as needed for moderate pain
(5-7).
tramadol HCl oral tablet 50 mg, give one tablet by mouth every eight hours as needed for severe pain (8-9).
During a review of Resident 5's Care Plan focus on pain, dated 4/23/2025, the Care Plan indicated the
resident will report satisfactory pain control with interventions including administering pain medications per
order.
During a concurrent observation and interview on 5/21/2025 at 3 p.m. with LVN 5, LVN 5 inspected
medication cart 3 and LVN 5 stated Resident 5's Controlled Drug Inventory Sheet indicated tramadol HCl
50 mg tablet, take one-half tablet (25 mg) by mouth every six hours as needed for moderate pain and take
one tablet by mouth every 8 hours as needed for severe pain had 17 tablets signed and 16 tablets in the
bubble pack (packaging that have a preformed plastic pocket or shell where a product sits securely in
place).
During a concurrent interview and record review on 5/21/2025 at 3:17 p.m. with LVN 5, Resident 5's
medication administration record was reviewed and LVN 5 stated she (LVN 5) did not sign the controlled
drug inventory sheet this morning when she (LVN 5) administered it this morning, 5/21/2025, at 7:28 a.m.
LVN 5 stated she (LVN 5) is supposed to sign the controlled drug inventory for tramadol right when she
(LVN 5) administered it to the resident.
During an interview on 5/22/2025 at 1:53 p.m. with the DON, the DON stated LVN 5 should have signed the
controlled drug inventory sheet immediately as they administered the medication. The DON stated this is to
show proof that the controlled medications were given and are tracked of the narcotic count. The DON
stated when LVNs do not document on the controlled drug inventory sheet this causes a discrepancy when
the licensed nurses do their narcotic count.

During a review of the facility's P&P titled, Medication - Administration, reviewed and approved on 4/4/2025,
the P&P indicated medications and treatments will be administered as prescribed to ensure compliance
with dose guidelines.
During a review of the facility's P&P titled, Medication Dispensing Controlled Substances, reviewed and
approved on 4/4/2025, the P&P indicated Controlled Dangerous Substances (CDS) are handled by the
facility in a manner that promotes proper storage, security and compliance with applicable State and
Federal regulations. The P&P indicated when a CDS medication is administered, in addition to following
proper procedure for the charting of medications, the nurse must document on the declining inventory sheet
the date of administration, the quantity administered, the amount of medication remaining and his/her
initials.
Based on interview and record review, the facility failed to provide pharmaceutical services (including
procedures that assure the accurate acquiring, receiving, dispensing, and administering of all drugs and
biologicals) for two of four sampled residents (Residents 236 and 5) by:
1.
Failing to ensure Resident 236 received complete doses (measured quantity of a drug to be taken at one
time or within a specific period) of antibiotic (medication used to treat infection) as per physician order.
2.
Failing to ensure Licensed Vocational Nurse (LVN) 5 signed the Controlled Drug Medication (medications
that the use and possession of are controlled by the federal government) Inventory Sheet (a complete and
accurate record of the controlled substances inventory) when tramadol hydrochloride (HCl) (medication
used to treat moderate to severe pain) was administered to Resident 5 reviewed
during Medication Storage and Labeling facility task.
These failures had the potential to result in medication error, could prolong the infection, medication
discrepancy and drug diversion of controlled medication.
Findings:

During a review of Resident 236's admission Record, the admission Record indicated the facility initially
admitted Resident 236 on 11/18/2024, and readmitted on [DATE], with diagnoses that included acute
respiratory failure with hypoxia (a life-threatening condition where the lungs cannot provide enough oxygen
to the blood, leading to a low blood oxygen level and potentially hypoxia at the tissue level), unspecified
(unconfirmed) pneumonia (an infection/inflammation in the lungs) and unspecified dementia (a progressive
state of decline in mental abilities).

were reviewed. The IP stated from 3/2/2025 to 3/3/2025 at 9 a.m., Resident 236 missed three doses of
Zyvox. The IP stated nurses should have checked the emergency kit (collection of essential medications
and related supplies designed to be used during emergencies or disasters when access to a pharmacy or
regular medical care is limited) if Zyvox was available and notify the physician if medication was not
delivered to get an order to either change the medication or extend the medication days to complete the
seven days dose. The IP stated incomplete antibiotic dose could cause complication (unwanted and
undesirable effects) and could prolong the infection.

Ensure medication error rates are not 5 percent or greater.
Level of Harm - Minimal harm
or potential for actual harm
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
observation, interview, and record review, the facility failed to ensure that its medication error rate was less
than five (5) percent (%). Three (3) medication errors out of 30 total opportunities contributed to an overall
medication error rate of 10% affecting three (3) of four (4) residents observed for medication administration
(Resident 13, 56 and 286.) The medication errors were as follows:
Residents Affected - Few
1.
Resident 13 did not receive a dose of tiotropium (a medication used for Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary
Disease [COPD -a disease that blocks air flow and makes breathing difficult]) oral inhalation as ordered by
Resident 13's physician.
2.
Resident 56 did not have previous lidocaine (a medication used to relieve pain) topical (on the skin) patch
removed 12 hours after application, as ordered by Resident 56's physician.
3.
Resident 286 did not receive a dose of entacapone (a medication used for Parkinson's Disease [a brain
disorder that causes unintended or uncontrollable movements, such as shaking, stiffness, and difficulty with
balance and coordination) oral tablet as ordered by Resident 286's physician.
These failures had the potential to result in Resident 13 to experience medication adverse effects
(unwanted, uncomfortable, or dangerous effects that a medication may have) and in Residents 13's, 56's
and 286's health and well-being to be negatively impacted.
Findings:
During an observation on 5/20/2025 at 8:40 a.m., in Medication Cart 1, licensed vocational nurse (LVN) 1
was observed removing a lidocaine five (5) % patch labeled 5/19/2025 with a black pen from Resident 56's
lower back and applying a new lidocaine patch to Resident 56's lower back and labeling the patch with a
black pen 5/20/2025.
During a concurrent interview, LVN 1 stated the lidocaine patch labeled 5/19/2025 was still on Resident
56's lower back that day (5/20/2025) at 8:40 a.m. LVN 1 stated lidocaine patches needed to be removed 12
hours after administration, per Resident 56's physician orders. LVN 1 stated LVN 8 failed to remove the
lidocaine patch from Resident 56's lower back on 5/19/2025 at 9 p.m. LVN 1 stated this was considered a
medication error. LVN 1 stated not removing the lidocaine patch 12 hours after administration increases the
risk of adverse effects, such as receiving too much medication, skin irritation and rash, for Resident 56. LVN
1 stated LVN 1 needed to contact the physician for the medication error and obtain any new orders as
necessary.
During an observation on 5/20/2025 at 8:54 a.m., in Medication Cart 1, LVN 1 was observed crushing
(pressing very hard so that the shape is destroyed and forms a soft powder) several medications for
administration to Resident 286.

During an observation on 5/20/2025 at 9:15 a.m., LVN 1 was observed administering several medications
enterally (by way of a tube) through a stomach tube (a tube surgically inserted in the stomach to deliver
nutrition and medications) to Resident 286. LVN 1 was not observed preparing or administering entacapone
to Resident 286.
During an observation on 5/20/2025 at 9:47 a.m., in Medication Cart 2, LVN 2 was observed preparing
several medications for administration for Resident 13.
During an observation on 5/20/2025 at 10:11 a.m., LVN 2 was observed administering several medications
orally to Resident 13. Resident 13 was observed swallowing the medications with a glass of water. LVN 2
was not observed preparing or administering tiotropium inhalation to Resident 13.
During an interview on 5/20/2025 at 10:45 a.m., with LVN 1, LVN 1 stated LVN 1 did not administer
entacapone 200 milligram ([mg]-a unit of measure of mass) tablet to Resident 286 that morning (5/20/2025)
at 9:15 a.m. LVN 1 stated entacapone 200 mg tablet was not readily available in Medication Cart 1 and that
LVN 1 needed to follow up with pharmacy for delivery of the medication. LVN 1 stated entacapone was
scheduled to be administered at 9 a.m. and not administering the medication one (1) hour before or one (1)
hour after the scheduled time was considered a medication error. LVN 1 stated not administering
entacapone to Resident 286 can harm Resident 286 by worsening the symptoms of Parkinson's disease,
such as worsening tremors (uncontrolled movement.)
During an interview on 5/20/2025 at 10:54 a.m., with LVN 2, LVN 2 stated LVN 2 did not administer
tiotropium oral inhalation to Resident 13 that morning (5/20/2025) at 10:11 a.m. LVN 2 stated LVN 2 forgot
and overlooked to prepare and administer the tiotropium oral inhalation to Resident 13 by failing to follow
five (5) rights (right patient, right medication, right time, right dose, right route) of medication administration,
and administering the medication within one (1) hour before or one (1) hour after the scheduled time. LVN 2
stated this was considered a medication error. LVN 2 stated not administering tiotropium oral inhalation can
exacerbate (make worse) the COPD symptoms and harm Resident 13 leading to difficulty in breathing and
resulting in hospitalization.
During a phone interview, on 5/21/2025 at 1:35 p.m., with the Director of Nursing (DON,) the DON stated
LVN 1 and LVN 2 overlooked and failed administer tiotropium to Resident 13 and entacapone to Resident
286 on 5/20/2025 one (1) hour before to one (1) after the 9 a.m. dose. The DON stated LVN 8 failed to
remove the lidocaine patch from Resident 56's low back on 5/19/2025 at 9 p.m. The DON stated these were
considered medication errors. The DON stated leaving the lidocaine patch on the skin longer than 12 hours
may place Resident 56 at risk for overdose (receiving more than the intended dose) and developing skin
irritation. The DON stated Resident 13 may possibly experience respiratory (related to breathing) distress
(difficulty) and exacerbation (worsening) of COPD by not receiving tiotropium. The DON stated Resident
286 may experience increase in tremors by not receiving entacapone four (4) times a day as prescribed.
The DON stated that LVN's should follow facility medication administration guidelines and the five (5) rights
of medication administration to ensure physician orders are followed and medications are administered at
the right time to residents. The DON stated that LVN 1, LVN 2 and LVN 8 failed to follow medication
administration guidelines and physician orders placing Resident 13, 56 and 286 at increased risk of
adverse effects.
During a review of Resident 13's admission Record (a document containing demographic and diagnostic
information,) dated 5/20/2025, the admission Record indicated Resident 13 was originally admitted to the
facility on [DATE] and re-admitted on [DATE] with a diagnosis including COPD.

LVN 3 stated the administration sites for insulin should be rotated per standards of practice, manufacturer's
guideline, and per physician's order to prevent hardening or lumps in the skin. LVN 3 stated the location of
administration sites for Resident 32's Humalog and glargine were not rotated. LVN 3 stated Resident 32's
administration sites should have been rotated to prevent pain, redness, irritation, and lumps on the
resident's skin which can affect the absorption of the insulin. LVN 3 stated not following the standards of
practice and manufacturer's guideline to rotate the administration of insulin sites ca be considered a
medication error.
During an interview on 5/22/2025 at 12:05 p.m. with the DON, the DON stated the licensed nurses need to
rotate the administration sites for insulin to promote or maintain skin integrity and prevent lipodystrophy. The
DON stated the absorption of the medication can be affected by not absorbing the medication properly
which may lead to hypoglycemia or hyperglycemia. The DON stated Resident 32's administration sites for
insulin should have been rotated to prevent lipodystrophy which may lead to the medication not being
absorbed properly and cause hyperglycemia. The DON stated not rotating the insulin administration sites
can be considered a medication error as the nurses were not following the professional standards of
practice, and the manufacturer's guideline.
During a review of the facility's recent P&P titled Medication- Errors, last reviewed on 4/4/2025, the P&P

Residents Affected - Some
d. If a series of injections are to be given to the same resident, the injection sites shall be rotated to ensure
adequate absorption and lessen discomfort. Specific injection sites shall be noted when the medication is
charted.
During a review of the facility provided manufacturer's guideline for Insulin Lispro Injection dated 1996, the
manufacturer's guideline indicated to rotate injection sites to reduce risk of lipodystrophy and localized
cutaneous amyloidosis.
During a review of the facility provided manufacturer's guideline for insulin glargine injection dated 2000, the
manufacturer's guideline indicated to rotate injection sites to reduce risk of lipodystrophy and localized
cutaneous amyloidosis.
Based on interview and record review, the facility failed to ensure residents were free of any significant
medication errors (means the observed or identified preparation or administration of medications or
biologicals which are not in accordance with the prescriber's order, manufacturer's specifications, and
accepted professional standards) for four of five sampled residents (Residents 36, 43, 47, and 32) reviewed
for unnecessary medications by failing to rotate (a method to ensure repeated injections are not
administered in the same area) subcutaneous (sq - beneath the skin) insulin (a hormone that removes
excess sugar from the blood, can be produced by the body or given artificially via medication)
administration sites.
These deficient practices had the potential for adverse effect (unwanted, unintended result) of same site
subcutaneous administration of insulin such as excessive bruising, lipodystrophy (abnormal distribution of
fat) and cutaneous amyloidosis (is a condition in which clumps of abnormal proteins called amyloids build
up in the skin).
Cross-reference F658.
Findings:
1.
During a review of Resident 36's admission Record, the admission Record indicated the facility admitted
the resident on 12/3/2021, and readmitted the resident on 4/26/2025, with diagnoses including type two (2)
diabetes mellitus (DM - a disorder characterized by difficulty in blood sugar control and poor wound
healing) with hyperglycemia (a condition in which the level of glucose in the blood is higher than normal),
diabetic neuropathy (nerve damage that can happen as a complication of diabetes), with ketoacidosis (a
condition where the body produces too much of a type of acid called ketones, making your blood too
acidic).
During a review of Resident 36's History and Physical (H&P), dated 9/13/2024, the H&P indicated the
resident had the capacity to understand and make decisions.

During a concurrent interview and record review on 5/20/2025 at 2:35 p.m., with Licensed Vocational Nurse
(LVN) 3, Resident 36's Medical Diagnosis, Order Summary Report, Location of Administration of Insulin,
dated 3/2025 to 5/2025, and Care Plans were reviewed. LVN 3 stated there was an order for insulin Lispro
on the chart and there were multiple instances in the Location of Administration of Insulin that licensed
nurses did not rotate insulin administrations sites. LVN 3 stated the licensed staff should have rotated the
insulin sites of administration to prevent lipodystrophy on Resident 36. LVN 3 stated administering insulin in
the areas of lipodystrophy decreases the absorption of the medication which could cause
hypo/hyperglycemia on resident 36.
During an interview on 5/22/2025 at 11:54 a.m. with the Director of Nursing (DON), the DON stated the
licensed staff should have rotated the insulin sites of administration on Resident 36 to prevent skin injury
and lipodystrophy. The DON stated the failure of the licensed staff of rotating insulin sites of administration
predisposed the resident from developing lipodystrophy on the frequented sites of repeated administration
decreasing the absorption of the insulin that can cause low or high blood sugar levels on Resident 36. The
DON stated the failure of the staff to rotate insulin administration sites constitutes a medication error.
During a review of the facility's recent policy and procedure (P&P) titled Mediation- Errors, last reviewed on
4/4/2025, the P&P indicated to ensure the prompt reporting of errors in the administration of medications
and treatments to residents.

food not to his liking, and was only served 1 quesadilla instead of 2, Resident 32 was not getting the correct
amount of food he is supposed to receive, and he might not eat his food which may lead to weight loss.

body requires which may lead to weight loss. The DSS stated she is responsible to monitor and check that
the residents are getting the correct food and amount that they needed. The DSS stated the quesadilla
served to Resident 32 was not of good quality and not palatable which may lead to Resident 32 getting

Safeguard resident-identifiable information and/or maintain medical records on each resident that are in
accordance with accepted professional standards.
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
observation, interview, and record review, the facility failed to ensure medical records on each resident are
complete, accurately documented, and readily accessible for one of four sampled residents (Resident 9)
reviewed under the mobility care area, one of one sampled resident (Resident 67) reviewed under the care
planning care area, and one of one sampled resident (Resident 45) reviewed under the vision and hearing
care area when the facility failed to:
1.
Record the provision of a Restorative Nursing Aide (RNA nursing aide program that helps residents to
maintain their function and joint mobility) feeding program (focuses on improving or maintain a resident's
ability to feed themselves) for Resident 9.
These failures resulted in incomplete records of Resident 9's RNA feeding program for 4/2025 and
incomplete records of the RNA responsible for providing Resident 9's feeding program for 4/2025 and
5/2025 which had the potential for Resident 9 to develop weight loss.
2.
Keep track of Interdisciplinary Team (IDT - a team of healthcare professionals from different professional
disciplines who work together to manage the physical, psychological and spiritual needs of the resident)
attendance for Resident 67.
This deficient practice had the potential to result in reduced patient-centered care.
3.
Ensure the optometrist (doctors who examine, diagnose, treat and manage diseases and disorders of the
visual system, the eye and associated structures as well as diagnose related systemic conditions) and
ophthalmologist (an eye care specialist) visit notes were readily available in Resident 45's medical record
(also known as chart).
This failure had the potential to result in a decline of Resident 45's activities of daily living (ADLs- activities
such as bathing, dressing and toileting a person performs daily) due to poor vision.
Findings:
1.
During a review of Resident 9's admission Record, the admission Record indicated the facility admitted
Resident 9 on 11/10/2023 under Hospice care (compassionate care for people who are near the end of life
provided at the person's home or within a health care facility). The admission Record indicated Resident 9's

During a review of Resident 9's physician's order, dated 3/24/2025, the physician's order indicated to
discontinue Hospice care due to extended prognosis (hospice-initiated discharge due to an improving or
stabilized condition). Another physician's order, dated 4/18/2025 with start date on 4/19/2025, indicated to
provide Resident 9 with a RNA feeding program for breakfast and lunch, two times per day for three
months.
Residents Affected - Few
During a review of Resident 9's RNA flow sheet (record of RNA sessions) for 4/2025, the RNA flow sheet
indicated Resident 17 received the RNA feeding program for breakfast and lunch on 4/19/2025. The RNA
flow sheet did not indicate any initials of the RNA providing Resident 9's feeding program on 4/19/2025.
Resident 9's RNA flow sheet was blank from 4/20/2025 to 4/30/2025.
During a review of Resident 9's RNA flow sheet for 5/2025, the RNA flow sheet indicated Resident 17
received the RNA feed program for breakfast and lunch from 5/1/2025 to 5/21/2025. The RNA flow sheet
did not indicate initials of the RNA providing Resident 9's feeding program each day.
During an interview on 5/20/2025 at 9:22 a.m. with the Director of Rehabilitation (DOR), the DOR stated the
facility's RNA feeding program was for residents requiring cueing and assistance for eating to increase or
maintain weight.
During an observation on 5/21/2025 at 8:11 a.m. in Resident 9's room, Resident 9 was sleeping and lying
on the right side of the body. Resident 9's breakfast tray was on the bedside table and was untouched.
During an observation on 5/21/2025 at 8:35 a.m. in Resident 9's room, Resident 9's breakfast tray was no
longer on the bedside table.
During an interview on 5/21/2025 at 8:41 a.m. with Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA) 3, CNA 3 stated
Restorative Nursing Assistant (RNA) 4 assisted Resident 9 with eating breakfast.
During an interview on 5/21/2025 at 9:45 a.m. with RNA 4, RNA 4 stated Resident 9 was on the RNA
feeding program due to weight loss. RNA 4 stated Resident 9 ate about 30 percent [%] of the meal,

Implement a program that monitors antibiotic use.
Level of Harm - Minimal harm
or potential for actual harm
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
interview and record review, the facility failed to implement its policy for antibiotic (medication used to treat
infection) stewardship (efforts in doctors' offices, hospitals, long-term care facilities, and other health care
settings to ensure that antibiotics are used only when necessary and appropriate) for two of three sampled
residents (Resident 186 and 236) by:
Residents Affected - Some
1. Failing to monitor Resident 186 for antibiotic use, signs and symptoms, side effects or adverse reaction
(unintended pharmacologic effects that occur when a medication is administered correctly while a side
effect is a secondary unwanted effect).
2. Failing to monitor Resident 236 for antibiotic use, signs and symptoms, side effects or adverse reaction.
3. Failing to ensure Infection Prevention and Control Surveillance Log (record that involves the systematic
collection, analysis, and interpretation of data related to infections within a healthcare setting), dated
5/2025, was complete. The Infection Prevention and Control Surveillance Log for signs and symptoms of
the infection and the date antibiotic was completed were left blank.
These failures had the potential to increase antibiotic resistance (don't respond to a drug) from
unnecessary or inappropriate antibiotic use.
Findings:
a.
During a review of Resident 186's admission Record, the admission Record indicated the facility admitted
Resident 186 on 5/2/2025, with diagnoses including unspecified (unconfirmed) sepsis (a life-threatening
blood infection), acute appendicitis (a medical emergency caused by inflammation of the appendix, a small,
finger-like pouch in the lower right abdomen, often due to infection or blockage) with perforation (a serious
complication that occurs when the appendix bursts, releasing infected material into the abdominal cavity),
localized peritonitis (a redness and swelling of the lining of your belly or abdomen) and gangrene (tissue
death developing in an area that is already infected) with abscess (localized collection of pus caused by
infection).
During a review of Resident 186's History and Physical (H&P - a medical examination that involves a doctor
taking a resident's medical history, performing a physical exam, and documenting their findings), dated
5/3/2025, the H&P indicated Resident 186 had the capacity to understand and make decisions.
During a review of Resident 186's Minimum Data Set (MDS - a resident assessment tool), dated 5/9/2025,
the MDS indicated Resident 186's cognitive (mental action or process of acquiring knowledge and
understanding) skills for daily decisions were moderately impaired. The MDS indicated Resident 1 was
dependent on staff for toileting and lower body dressing. The MDS indicated Resident 186 was on
antibiotics.
During a review of Resident 186's Physician Order, dated 5/2/2025, the Physician Order indicated
