This survey cited 8 deficiencies. The full statement and the facility’s plan of correction follow, verbatim from the federal record.

F 0582 Give residents notice of Medicaid/Medicare coverage and potential liability for services not covered. Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Based on interview and record review, the facility failed to provide a written Skilled Nursing Facility Advanced Beneficiary Notice (SNF-ABN-a notice to provide information to residents/beneficiaries if they wish to continue receiving the skilled services that may not be paid for by Medicare and assume responsibility) and Notice of Medicare Provided Non-Coverage (NOMNC) for one of three sampled residents (Resident 57) when the Medicare coverage was terminated. Residents Affected - Few This deficient practice resulted in not protecting Resident 57's (and the resident representative) right to appeal the termination of Medicare Part A and possibly denying Resident 57 needed services. Findings: During a concurrent interview and record review on 3/10/2020, at 1:44 P.M., with Director of Social Services (DSS), the DSS reviewed the facility document titled, Skilled Nursing Facility Beneficiary Protection Notification Review which indicated Resident 57's Medicare Part A Skilled Services Episode start date was on 1/8/2020 and the last covered day of Medicare Part A Services was on 1/17/2020. The DSS stated she did not issue a SNFABN to Resident 57 or the Resident Representative (RR) because she did not know Resident 57 received Medicare Part A services. The DSS stated, I thought [Resident 57] was only under Medicare part B when she came back from the hospital. The DSS stated the SNF-ABN and NOMNC letter should have been issued at least three days prior to the last day of Medicare A coverage for Resident 57. The DSS stated the SNF-ABN and NOMNC forms were very important because they provided Resident 57 and the RR steps to follow if they wanted to continue receiving Medicare A benefits and steps to follow for an appeal. The DSS stated Resident 57 and RR were not able to appeal because they were not given the forms and information. During an interview on 3/11/2020, at 10:20 a.m., with Minimum Data Set Coordinator (MDSC), the MDSC stated the business office determined the insurance and sent an email to all the department heads if a new or readmitted resident has under Medicare part A or part B coverage. The MDSC stated the DSS was responsible in making sure the SNF-ABN and NOMNC letters were signed prior to the last covered Medicare A day. The MDSC stated the SNF-ABN and NOMNC letters were both important because it gave the residents and family an opportunity to appeal the discontinuation of Medicare A coverage. During an interview on 3/11/2020, at 2:05 p.m., with Resident 57's Resident Representative (RR), the RR stated she did not receive a notice her Medicare part A coverage was going to be discontinued on 1/17/2020. The RR stated she did not receive information from the facility staff explaining Resident 57 had the right to appeal the discontinuation of Medicare part A coverage and believed Resident 57 would have benefited from additional physical therapy.

F 0655 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Few Create and put into place a plan for meeting the resident's most immediate needs within 48 hours of being admitted **NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on interview and record review, the facility failed to ensure a baseline care plan was developed and implemented within 48 hours of admission to the facility for one of three sampled residents (Resident 45), when Resident 45 did not have a care plan for his customary routines and activities. This failure had the potential to result in Resident 45's activity needs to go unmet. Findings: During a review of Resident 45's clinical record titled, admission RECORD (a document containing resident profile information) undated, the admission record indicated, Resident 45 was admitted to the facility on [DATE]. During a review of Resident 45's Minimum Data Set (MDS- assessment of healthcare and functional needs) dated 1/11/2020, the MDS assessment indicated Resident 45's Brief Interview for Mental Status (BIMS- an assessment of cognitive status) had a score of 2 of 15 points which indicated Resident 45's cognition was severely impaired. The MDS Preference for Customary Routines and Activities indicated Resident 45's activity preferences; very important to listen to music, keep up with the news, do favorite activities, go outside to get fresh air when weather is good and participate in religious services or practices. During a concurrent interview and record review on 3/10/2020, at 8:45 A.M., with the Director of Activities (DOA), the DOA reviewed Resident 45's facility record and stated, I did not find a care plan for activities for Resident 45. The DOA stated the care plan should had been started within two days of Resident 45's admission to the facility. The DOA stated a care plan was important because it provided guidance for the staff to provide the care or activity that are important for Resident 45. The DOA stated Resident 45 was confused and needed assistance with daily needs and that included activities. The DOA stated without the care plan the staff did not know what type of activities Resident 45 preferred and enjoyed. During an interview on 3/10/2020, at 3:51 p.m., with the Unit Manager (UM), the UM stated she was a Licensed Nurse and helped develop care plans for all residents. The UM stated Resident 45's care plan for activities was supposed to be completed within 24 hours of Resident 45's admission to the facility. The UM stated the interdisciplinary team was supposed to review all care plans with the residents and or their families within 48 hours of admission. The UM stated Resident 45's activity care plan was missed. The UM stated a care plan was very important because it measured if the interventions were meeting the goals for the resident. During an interview on 3/11/2020, at 10:45 a.m., with the Director Of Nursing (DON), the DON stated Resident 45's care plan should have been started within two days after admission. The DON stated the activity care plan was very important in order for the staff to implement the type of activities Resident 45 preferred and enjoyed. During a review of the facility's policy and procedure titled, Care Plans dated 11/24/2017, the policy and procedure indicated, .

F 0657 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Few Develop the complete care plan within 7 days of the comprehensive assessment; and prepared, reviewed, and revised by a team of health professionals. **NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on interview, and record review, the facility failed to revise a person centered comprehensive care plan in a timely manner for one of three sampled residents (Resident 87) when Resident 87's care plan did not accurately reflect the current physician's ordered settings for Resident 87's Bi-Pap machine (Bi-level Positive Airway Pressure-a machine used to provide a non-invasive form of therapy for patients suffering from obstructive sleep apnea- OSA a potentially serious sleep disorder in which breathing repeatedly stops and starts.). This failure had the potential to result in respiratory complications and failure for Resident 87. Findings: During a concurrent interview and record review, on 3/11/2020, at 10:42 a.m., with LN 4, she reviewed Resident 87's care plan dated 3/11/2020 which indicated, focus- [Resident 87] is at risk for alteration in respiratory function related to COPD (chronic obstructive pulmonary disease-a group of lung diseases that makes it harder to breathe) .OSA . revision 8/14/19 . Goal indicated, Resident 87 will display optimal breathing pattern daily through review date, with a target date of 5/18/2020 .interventions/tasks, Bi-Pap as ordered, 10-6 with continuous oxygen 2-3 L (liters per minute-a measurement of oxygen flow) date initiated 8/30/19. During a review of the current physician order indicated Bi-Pap with setting 12-8 with continuous oxygen 2-4 L at bedtime. LN 4 stated the current physician order for Bi-Pap was not accurately reflected in the residents care plan. LN 4 stated the care plan was the plan staff followed for the care of the resident. LN 4 stated Resident 87 was at risk to not receive LN the correct dosage of oxygen because the care plan and doctors orders did not match. During a concurrent interview and record review, on 3/11/20, at 2:05 p.m., with the Director of Nurses (DON), Resident 87's care plan and physician orders were reviewed. The DON stated Resident 87's care plan should have been revised on 12/18/19 to reflect the physician order and was not. The DON stated Resident 87 OSA care plan had not been revised for almost 3 months after the physician order changed. The DON stated if an employee were to follow only the care plan without checking the current physician order, Resident 87 could potentially have not received enough oxygen. During a review of the clinical record for Resident 87, the Face Sheet (a document with resident demographic and medical diagnosis information) dated 3/11/20, indicated Resident 87 was admitted to the facility on [DATE]. Resident 87's diagnoses included chronic obstructive pulmonary disease . respiratory failure. During a review of the facility's policy and procedure (P&P) titled, Oxygen Administration, dated 1/01/2011, the P&P indicated, purpose: to provide comfort and administer high-purity oxygen for the treatment of pulmonary disease or conditions .It is the policy of this facility that oxygen will only be administered by physician's order . 6.

F 0727 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Many Have a registered nurse on duty 8 hours a day; and select a registered nurse to be the director of nurses on a full time basis. Based on interview and record review, the facility failed to meet the minimum requirement of a registered nurse on duty for eight consecutive hours per day, seven days per week when a registered nurse was not on duty for the minimum eight consecutive hours per day for six of 30 days sampled. This failure had the potential to result in residents not receiving services required to be provided by an RN. Findings: During an interview on 3/11/2020, at 8:20 a.m., with the Staffing Coordinator (SD), the SD stated, the facility was a 99 bed facility and the Director of Nurses (DON) served as the RN from Monday to Friday eight hours a day. The SD stated she was not aware she was required to schedule an RN seven days a week for eight hours a day. The SD stated she was directed by the DON to schedule an RN on Saturday and Sunday when the facility admitted residents who had intravenous (IV) therapy (therapy that delivers fluids and medications directly into a vein). The SD stated, the facility had a total of three Registered Nurses, the DON, one full time RN and one on-call RN (a person able to be contacted in order to provide a professional service if necessary, but not formally on duty). The SD stated when the facility had IV's on the weekends an RN was scheduled to come into the facility and was instructed to stay for two hours and did not have to work eight hours. During a concurrent interview and record review on 3/11/2020, at 8:45 a.m., with the SD, the Assignment Sheet (AS) dated February 2020 were reviewed. The AS indicated on 2/1/20, 2/8/2020, 2/9/2020, 2/15/2020, 2/29/2020 and 3/1/2020, there were no RN's scheduled to work eight hours a day for the morning, evening or night. The SD verified all the nurses who were scheduled were LVN's and not RN's. During an interview on 3/11/2020, at 10:56 a.m., with the DON, the DON stated, the facility process to schedule an RN was five days a week because the facility had a bed capacity of 99. The DON stated, she worked in the facility Monday through Friday. During an interview on 3/11/2020, at 12:04 p.m., with the Administrator (ADM), the ADM stated she believed the facility required RN coverage Monday to Friday. The ADM stated, she was not aware the facility required coverage on Saturday and Sundays. During an interview, on 3/11/2020, at 2:18 p.m., with the ADM, the ADM stated, she did not have a policy and procedure on the required RN coverage.

F 0761 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Some Ensure drugs and biologicals used in the facility are labeled in accordance with currently accepted professional principles; and all drugs and biologicals must be stored in locked compartments, separately locked, compartments for controlled drugs. Based on observation and interview, the facility failed to ensure medications stored in the Central Supply Room were disposed of after the expiration date was reached. This failure had the potential to place ninety-one residents at risk of receiving expired medications. Findings: During a concurrent observation and interview on 3/10/20, at 10:20 a.m., with Director of Nursing (DON), in the Central Supply Room, five bottles of centirizine (medication used for allergy symptoms) 10 milligrams, (mg a unit of measurement) 90 tablets in each bottle, were found to have gone past their expiration date of 2/2020 and remained on the shelf with the non-expired medications. The DON confirmed the medication bottles were expired and should have been removed from the shelf.

F 0773 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Few Provide or obtain laboratory tests/services when ordered and promptly tell the ordering practitioner of the results. Based on interview and record review the facility failed to timely notify the ordering physician for a laboratory result that fell outside of the normal reference range for one of two sampled residents (Resident 65) when Resident 65's urinalysis (UA-urine sampled to test for the presence of bacteria) result was positive for bacteria that was resistant to the physician ordered antibiotic (a medication to treat infections) regimen. This failure resulted in the administration of antibiotic treatment to Resident 65 that she was resistant to from 1/18/2020 through 1/25/2020 and placed her at risk for further complications from the Urinary Tract Infection (UTI). Findings: During an interview on 3/9/2020, at 9:35 a.m., with Resident 65, Resident 65 stated she recently had a urinary tract infection and was in isolation. Resident 65 stated she was not sure what the infection was, but believed she may have had Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA- a bacteria that causes infections) in the urine. During an interview on 3/10/2020, at 11:05 a.m., with the licensed vocational nurse (LVN) 3, LVN 3 stated the certified nurse assistant (CNA) would report if there were any changes in the residents mental status or if there was smell and change in the appearance of urine. LVN 3 stated the nurse would then perform a dip strip to test for nitrates (an enzyme sometimes present in urine when certain bacteria is present during a urinary tract infection). LVN 3 stated if the urine was positive for nitrates the doctor was notified and would order a urinalysis with a culture and sensitivity (UA C&S-test that verifies what antibiotic will be effective). During a concurrent interview and record review on 3/11/2020, at 10:51 a.m., with LVN 4, the Situation Background Assessment and Recommendation (SBAR) progress note for Resident 65, dated 1/18/20 10:41 a.m., was reviewed. The SBAR progress note indicated, situation: c/o burning with voiding, fishy foul odor to urine . background: Hx [history] UTI . assessment: noted urine dark yellow, fishy odor . request/recommendation: MD [Resident 65's doctor] made aware of ultrasound results and resident current symptoms. In house UA dip positive for nitrate. MD ok to send UA sample to lab for C&S if indicated. MD also gave t.o. [telephone order] via phone for new ABX (antibiotics-a medication used to treat infection) for ciprofloxacin (a cephalosporin antibiotic) 500 mg BID [twice a day] x7 days for UTI . LVN 4 stated the doctor did not have the results for the UA with C&S prior to ordering Ciprofloxacin, LVN 4 stated if the resident is symptomatic of a UTI the doctor will order an antibiotic before receiving the results. Review of the UA C&S, dated 1/22/2020 was reviewed. LVN 4 stated the UA C&S result was received on 1/22/2020 at 3:30 p.m. The UA C&S, indicated .Org (organism) #1 ESBL (Extended Spectrum Beta-Lactamase -an enzyme made by some bacteria which prevents certain antibiotics from being able to kill the bacteria) pos.

LVN 4 stated the physician usually would sign and fax the result back with new orders written on it. LVN 4 stated on the UA C&S results there was a hand written note by LVN 5 which indicated started 1/18/20 on Cipro (antibiotic)500 mg 1 BID (twice daily) X 7 days . on isolation for ESBL . faxed to MD (Resident 65's doctor) 1/25/20 1642 (4:42 p.m.), the UA C&S results have Resident 65's physician signed initial at bottom of page with the date of 1/25/2020. LVN 4 stated there was no documentation to indicate nursing staff called to notify the physician after the 1/22/2020 fax. LVN 4 stated an abnormal UA C&S especially with ESBL should have been followed up with a phone call to the physician. LVN 4 stated if Resident 65's primary doctor did not acknowledge the abnormal test results on 1/22/20, the nurse should have called the medical director of the facility to discuss the results. LVN 4 stated Resident 65's UTI could have worsened from being on an antibiotic that is not sensitive to the bacteria. LVN 4 stated the resident could have wound up in the hospital with a serious infection like ESBL. LVN 4 stated Resident 65's physician orders indicated Ciprofloxacin was completed on 1/25/20. LVN 4 stated according to the nurses note dated 1/29/20 at 11:12 a.m., written by LVN 3 indicated .MD notified of resident (Resident 65) s/p (after) ABX and c/o (complained of) dysuria (painful urination) this AM shift. Noted cloudy yellow urine in bedside commode with noted foul odor. MD gave new orders for ABX. LVN 4 stated the physician ordered a second and different antibiotic Nitrofurantoin 50 mg from 1/29/20 until 3/10/20 because the first antibiotic was not effective. During a concurrent interview and record review on 3/11/2020, at 2:34 p.m. with the Director of Nurses (DON), Resident 65's nurses notes were reviewed. The DON stated the UA C&S result indicated Resident 65's physician was faxed on 1/25/2020. The DON stated there was no way to verify if the doctor reviewed the UA lab result that day. The DON stated the LVN should have also called the doctor because the UA C&S was abnormal. The DON stated if Resident 65's physician did not return the nurses phone call the LVN should have called the medical director. The DON stated the LVN should have followed up on the lab result prior to the end of her shift. The DON stated the resident received the wrong antibiotic for 3 days after the UA C&S results were received. Review of the nurses note dated 1/29/20 at 11:15 a.m. written by LVN 3 , indicated .[Resident 65] continues with isolation for ESBL in the urine. MD notified of resident s/p ABX and c/o (complains of) dysuria this AM (morning) shift. Noted cloudy yellow urine in bedside commode with noted foul odor MD gave new orders for ABX, The DON stated because the bacteria was resistant to the antibiotic [ciprofloxacin] Resident 65 was originally prescribed, Resident 65's urinary tract infection did not completely clear. The DON stated the physician gave a new order on 1/29/20 for nitrofurantoin, which showed sensitivity to the bacteria in Resident 65's urine on the UA C&S. The DON stated if Resident 65 was not started on correct treatment the resident could have wound up with dehydration, confusion and sepsis (a potential life threatening response to an infection).
