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 an assessment for safe
self-administration of medication was conducted for two of three residents reviewed for choices (Residents
2 and 146). These failures had the potential for Residents 2 and 146 to self-administer the medications
unsafely and without licensed nurse monitoring.Findings: 1.On September 22, 2025, at 11:35 a.m., a
concurrent observation and interview were conducted with Resident 146. Resident 146 was observed lying
on her bed, alert and oriented. An opened bottle of a 16oz (ounce) 3% hydrogen peroxide (an antiseptic
[kills germs] solution used for disinfecting minor cuts and scrapes on skin and used as a gargle or rinse to
help remove mucus and phlegm from the mouth and throat) was observed on the bedside table. Resident
146 stated her daughter bought the medication from a drug store and brought it to the facility to help her
rinse her mouth after she ate. Resident 146 stated she had used the medication that morning after
breakfast and had kept it at her bedside for few days. Resident 146 stated none of the staff asked her about
it. On September 22, 2025, at 11:40 a.m., a concurrent observation and interview were conducted with
Licensed Vocational Nurse (LVN) 1 inside Resident 146's room. LVN 1 stated she had provided care for
Resident 146 but was not aware of any medication at the bedside. LVN 1 stated residents would need a
self-administration assessment. LVN 1 stated she was unsure if Resident 146 had been evaluated. A review
of Resident 146's records indicated Resident 146 was admitted to the facility on [DATE], with diagnoses
including shortness of breath and nicotine dependence (a condition in which a person becomes physically
and psychologically addicted to nicotine [substance found in tobacco products such as cigarettes]). A
review of Resident 146's Minimum Data Set (MDS - an assessment tool) dated September 23, 2025,
indicated a Brief Interview of Mental Status (a tool to assess cognitive function of an individual) score of 14
(cognitively intact). A review of Resident 138's History and Physical, dated September 18, 2025, indicated
Resident 146 had the capacity to make decisions. Further review of Resident 146's records indicated there
was no documentation Resident 146 had been assessed for medication self-administration. On September
22, 2025, at 3:34 p.m., a concurrent interview and record review of Resident 146's records were conducted
with LVN 2. LVN 2 stated there was no documented evidence in Resident 146's records that she was
assessed to self-administer any medications. LVN 2 stated, residents would need to be assessed to
determine if they were capable of self-administering medications and for residents' safety. 2. On September
22, 2025, at 3:05 p.m., a concurrent observation and interview were conducted with Resident 2. Resident 2
was observed sitting on his bed watching television, alert and oriented. The following multiple over the

Resident 2 was assessed for medication self-administration. On September 22, 2025, at 3:30 p.m., a
concurrent interview and record review of Resident 2's records were conducted with LVN 2. LVN 2 stated
there was no documented evidence in Resident 2's records that he was assessed to self-administer the
OTC medications. LVN 2 stated, without an assessment, Resident 2 should not have any medications at the
bedside, as the staff would be unable to monitor whether the resident was using the medication safely. On
September 25, 2025, at 2:04 p.m., an interview was conducted with the Director of Nursing (DON). The
DON stated without a self-administration assessment, Residents 2 and 146 should not have any
medications at the bedside. The DON stated her expectations was for staff to inspect resident's rooms for
medications at bedside and report right away. The DON stated both Residents 2 and 146 did not have
self-administration assessments completed and further stated, they should have been evaluated to ensure
they were using the OTC medications safely and the residents were being monitored. A review of facility's
policy and procedure titled Self -Administration of Medications, dated 2001, indicated, .Residents have the
right to self-administer medications if the interdisciplinary team (IDT) assesses each resident's cognitive
and physical abilities to determine whether self-administering medications is safe and clinically appropriate
for the residents.the resident is able to safely and securely store the medications.this is documented in the

Provide the required documentation or notification related to the resident's needs, appeal rights, or
bed-hold policies.
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
interview and record review, the facility failed to provide a written notice of bed hold (holding or reserving a
resident's bed while the resident is absent from the facility for therapeutic leave or hospitalization) to the
resident or resident representative at the time of transfer to an acute care hospital for one of three residents
reviewed for closed records (Resident 1). This failure had the potential for residents and/or their RPs not to
be fully informed of their right to request a bed hold or to return to the facility after hospitalization, which
could result in an inappropriate discharge.Findings: A review of Resident 1's records indicated Resident 1
was admitted on [DATE], with diagnoses including muscle wasting and atrophy (weakness of the muscles).
A review of Resident 1's admission Agreement dated July 23, 2025, indicated, .Bed Holds and readmission

was no documented evidence the facility provided a written bed hold notice for Resident 1 or their
representative post discharge from the facility on August 25, 2025. On September 24, 2025, at 4:04 p.m., a
concurrent interview and record review was conducted with the Social Service Director (SSD). He stated he
was unsure of the process for a bed hold order but that his responsibility was to alert the family, resident or
their representative and the Ombudsman regarding the notification of transfer and/or discharge. The SSD
stated, he spoke to the ex-wife of Resident 1 and that a discharge notice was provided. The SSD further
stated it was the responsibility of the nursing staff to provide the bed hold notice and such notice should be
provided to the resident. On September 24, 2025, at 4:45 p.m. a concurrent interview and record review
was conducted with the Licensed Vocational Nurse (LVN) 4, LVN 4 stated when a resident was hospitalized
, a physician order or a seven-day bed hold was obtained. LVN 4 stated there was no other forms used to
indicate a resident had a bed hold or that the resident or representative had been notified by the nursing
staff. LVN 4 further stated the licensed nurses placed the orders and did not send the written bed hold
notice to the resident or representative. On September 24, 2025, at 4:52 p.m. an interview was conducted
with the Director of Nursing (DON). The DON stated the documentation of the notification of bed hold
should have been noted in the medical record. The DON stated the nursing staff were responsible for
communicating and sending the written bed hold notice to the resident or resident representative. The DON
stated the written notice should have been sent to Resident 1 or Resident 1's representative which was the
ex-wife, and the notification should have been documented. On September 24, 2025, at 4:58 p.m. an
interview was conducted with the facility Administrator (FA). The FA stated that proper procedures for
informing Resident 1's representative about the bed hold had not been followed. The FA stated although he
had notified the ex-wife by phone, no notation was made, the required admission form outlining bed hold
rights was not provided, and written documentation of the policy was missing from both the resident's

**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
observation, interview, and record review, the facility failed to ensure physician-ordered nutritional
interventions were implemented for two of three residents reviewed for nutrition (Residents 63 and 64)
when:1.Resident 63 did not receive an ordered extra egg at breakfast; and2.Resident 64 did not receive
Boost GC (Boost Glucose Control- blend of protein, carbohydrates and fat to help manage blood sugar
levels as part of a balanced diet) as prescribed during medication administration. These failures had the
potential to compromise the residents' nutritional status and delay healing in a resident population with
identified nutritional risks. Findings:1.On September 24, 2025, a review of Resident 63's admission record
indicated Resident 63 was admitted to the facility on [DATE], with diagnoses including pressure ulcer stage
four (full-thickness tissue loss extending into deep tissues, exposing muscle, tendon, or bone). A review of

and interview with the Dietary Service Supervisor (DSS), the DSS stated Resident 63's breakfast tray did
not include the ordered extra egg. The DSS stated she was not notified by the nursing staff of the
diet-related physician order for an extra egg for Resident 63. The DSS stated nursing was responsible for
communicating diet orders to the kitchen. The DSS stated, failure to provide the extra egg could result in
the resident not receiving needed protein to support wound healing. On August 25, 2025, at 11:04 a.m.,
during an interview with LVN 5, LVN 5 stated the expectation was that when licensed nurse received a
diet-related physician order, the licensed nurse should complete a diet order slip and communicate verbally
and in writing to dietary staff. On August 25, 2025, at 11:19 a.m., during an interview with LVN 6, LVN 6
stated she received the physician order for an extra egg and did not write the order on the diet slip nor did
she notify dietary staff. LVN 6 further stated should have communicated the order as required. 2. A review
of Resident 64's admission record indicated Resident 64 was admitted to the facility on [DATE], with
diagnoses which included unspecified protein calorie malnutrition (a nutritional disorder). A review of
Resident 64's Physician Order, dated August 1, 2025, indicated .BOOST GLUCOSE CONTROL 1

Additionally, there was no documented care plan initiated for the care of the PIV. On September 23, 2025,
at 10:14 a.m., a concurrent observation and interview were conducted with Resident 95. Resident 95 was
observed alert and lying in bed with a PIV line dressing on the right hand, dated September 13, 2025, with
an illegible time and initials. Resident 95 stated he was unsure how long he had the PIV in place and stated
he did not want to accidentally pull it out. On September 23, 2025, at 10:23 a.m., a concurrent observation
and interview were conducted with Licensed Vocational Nurse (LVN 5) in Resident 95's room. LVN 5 stated
Resident 95 had a 22g PIV on his right wrist dated September 13, 2025. LVN 5 stated the dressing was

review of Resident 95's records were conducted with LVN 5. LVN 5 stated Resident 95 had a physician
order for a 1L IV bolus due to Resident 95's elevated blood sugar. LVN 5 stated RNs were responsible for
carrying out IV orders. LVN 5 stated there was no way to confirm whether the PIV site assessments were
completed and further stated, the lack of monitoring posed a risk for infection. On September 23, 2025, at
3:10 p.m., a concurrent interview and record review of Resident 95's records were conducted with RN 2.
RN 2 stated on September 12, 2025, Resident 95's blood sugar was elevated and there was a physician's
order for a 1L NS bolus. RN 2 stated he inserted the PIV on the resident and forgot to verify whether a
physician's order was in place for the PIV insertion. RN 2 stated there was no physician order for PIV
insertion. RN 2 further stated, he should have initiated a care plan and monitoring for the PIV to avoid
infection issues. On September 25, 2025, at 2:04 p.m., a concurrent interview and record review of
Resident 95's records were conducted with the Director of Nursing (DON). The DON stated the facility had
a standard order set for IV monitoring and it was not followed for Resident 95 because the physician order
was not entered completely. The DON stated documentation should be indicated in the medical
