F 0554 Allow residents to self-administer drugs if determined clinically appropriate. 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 assess one of 18 sampled residents (Resident 12) for the ability to self-administer medications according to facility policy. This failure resulted in the potential for errors in Resident 12's medication administration. Residents Affected - Few Findings: 1. During a review of Resident 12's Care Plan Report, the Care Plan Report indicated Resident 12 was admitted on [DATE] with diagnoses that include Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus (disease that causes increased blood sugar) and left eye blindness. During a concurrent observation and interview on 6/17/25 at 10:36 AM in Resident 12's room, 5 bottles of eye drops and 2 vials of insulin (medication to treat high blood sugar) was observed on the bedside table. Resident 12 explained that the nurse provided the medications at 6 AM for the resident to self-administer. Resident 12 stated she refilled her insulin pump (medical device that measures blood sugar and administers insulin) and self-administered her eye drops around 6:00 AM that morning before going to physical therapy. Resident 12 confirmed she had been self-administering her eyedrops and insulin since she was admitted to the facility. During a concurrent record review and interview on 6/19/25 at 2:10 PM with the Director of Nursing (DON), the DON stated she was unaware Resident 12 had been self- administering medications. DON stated, the Interdisciplinary Team (IDT) should have met to evaluate Resident 12's ability to self-administer medications and developed a plan of care. The DON confirmed that the IDT had not assessed the resident per policy to determine that it is safe for Resident 12 to self-administer their medications prior to the survey. During a record review on 6/18/25 at 8:05 AM of the facility's policy and procedure (P&P) titled, Self-Administration of Medications, dated February 2021, the P&P indicated, Residents have the right to self-administer medications if the interdisciplinary team (IDT) has determined that it is clinically appropriate and safe for the resident to do so. In addition, If it is deemed safe and appropriate for a resident to self-administer medications, this is documented in the medical record and the care plan. Any deficiency statement ending with an asterisk (*) denotes a deficiency which the institution may be excused from correcting providing it is determined that other safeguards provide sufficient protection to the patients. (See instructions.) Except for nursing homes, the findings stated above are disclosable 90 days following the date of survey whether or not a plan of correction is provided. For nursing homes, the above findings and plans of correction are disclosable 14 days following the date these documents are made available to the facility. If deficiencies are cited, an approved plan of correction is requisite to continued program participation.

F 0656 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Few Develop and implement a complete care plan that meets all the resident's needs, with timetables and actions that can be measured. Based on observation, interview, and record review, the facility failed to implement a comprehensive person centered care plan for one of 18 sampled residents (Residents 222) when Resident 222's care plan intervention to store cigarettes and lighter in a lock box was not implemented. This failure had the potential for unauthorized access by residents which could result in harm. Findings: During an observation on 6/17/25 at 9:00 AM, in Resident 222's room, the room door was open and Resident 222 was not in the room. One cigarette lighter was on the bed and another lighter was on the nightstand. A box of cigarettes was also placed on the nightstand. During a concurrent observation and interview on 6/19/25 at 8:47 AM, with Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA) 1, in Resident 222's room, the room door was open and Resident 222 was not in the room. Two packs of cigarettes were on the bed and box containing six cigarettes packs were on top of the nightstand. CNA 1 stated that the cigarettes should not have been left out unattended to prevent other residents from unauthorized access. CNA 1 stated the cigarettes should have been locked in the nightstand. During a concurrent interview and record review on 6/19/25 at 11:02 AM, with Licensed Vocational Nurse (LVN) 1, Resident 222' s Care Plan (CP) dated 5/29/25 was reviewed. The CP indicated, .

F 0684 Provide appropriate treatment and care according to orders, resident’s preferences and goals. Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Based on observations, interviews and record reviews, the facility failed to ensure quality of care when physician orders to monitor fasting blood sugar levels of Resident 35, who is on insulin medication, were not followed and recorded. This deficient practice had the potential to adversely affect the resident's medical condition. Residents Affected - Few Findings: During a review of the resident's record, the physician order dated 5/20/25 indicated, Check FSBG [Fasting Blood Glucose] QA.M [Every morning]. During an interview on 6/18/25 at 2:20 PM with Infection Preventionist (IP), IP stated there was an order for fasting blood glucose every day, but no fasting blood sugar values were recorded in the chart since 5/20/25. IP stated they are supposed to be monitoring the values per the Physician order. During an interview on 6/18/25 at 2:29 PM with Licensed Vocational Nurse (LVN) 1, LVN 1 stated Resident 35's blood sugar should have been checked every morning. During an interview on 6/18/25 at 2:30 PM with Resident 35, Resident 35 stated that she was told by nurses she did not need her blood sugar monitored every day. During a review of the facility's policy and procedures (P&P) titled, Diabetes - Clinical Protocol Revised December 2015, the P&P indicated .monitor blood glucose levels twice a day if on insulin .
