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 implement the care plan for the monitoring of
resident's edema (a swelling caused by too much fluid trapped in body's tissues) for one of one resident
reviewed (Resident 161).
This failure resulted in Resident 161's edema not being assessed by licensed staff from February 10, 2024
to February 12, 2024, which increased the potential for Resident 161 not to receive the proper care and
treatment timely.
Findings:
On February 12, 2024, at 11:31 a.m., Resident 161 was observed lying in bed with eyes open. Resident
161 did not perform eye tracking during a verbal command.
Resident 161 was observed with a tracheostomy (an opening in the windpipe to allow air to fill the lungs)
tube, a gastrostomy tube (a feeding tube used to deliver a formula through the stomach), and on a
respirator (a life-support machine).
Resident 161 was observed with swelling on both arms and feet. Resident 161's arms were positioned on
his sides without support and his feet were touching the bed without support on the heels.
On February 13, 2024, at 10:09 a.m., Resident 161 was observed lying in bed with his eyes closed.
Resident 161's left arm was observed to be bigger than his right arm, and both arms were on his sides
without support. Both of his feet remained equally swollen and were touching the bed without support on
the heels.
On February 13, 2024, Resident 161's record was reviewed. Resident 161 was admitted to the facility on
[DATE], with diagnoses which included respiratory failure (a condition when the lungs can not get enough
oxygen into the blood) and chronic edema.
During a concurrent interview, and record review, on February 13, 2024, at 11:22 a.m., conducted with
Clinical Manager (CM) 1, Resident 161's history and physical (H & P) dated January 10, 2024, was
reviewed.
The physician's H&P for Resident 161, indicated Resident 161 had chronic edema.

Ensure that feeding tubes are not used unless there is a medical reason and the resident agrees; and
provide appropriate care for a resident with a feeding tube.
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
observation, interview, and record review, the facility failed to ensure the enteral formula (EF - a form of
nutrition that is delivered into the stomach as a liquid) was labeled with the date and time for one of six
residents (Resident 45) receiving enteral formula. This failure had the potential for Resident 45 to
experience complications from the formula, such as nausea, diarrhea, or infection.
Findings:
On February 12, 2024, at 9:50 a.m., Resident 45 was observed in bed with enteral formula feeding being
delivered via pump. The EF container was observed with a blank label (no date and time of when it was
hung.)
On February 12, 2024, at 11:03 a.m., a concurrent observation and interview with Registered Nurse (RN) 1
was conducted. RN 1 observed Resident 45's EF container and stated the formula should be labeled and
dated with the time once opened. RN 1 stated there was no way to tell when the EF was hung. RN 1 stated
the risk of not dating the EF was that the resident could get an upset stomach, have diarrhea and
abdominal pain. RN 1 stated the facility has apolicy on dating and timing the enteral formula feeding.
On February 12, 2024, at 11:22 a.m., during a concurrent observation and interview with the unit Charge
Nurse, Registered Nurse (RN) 2, RN 2 stated We write the date because it can only be hung for a 24-hour
period. RN 2 further stated the risk of not labeling is one would not know how long the EF had been there
and the patient can have GI (gastrointestinal) distress, nausea, vomiting, potentially abdominal pain and
could increase the residents risk for infection. RN 2 further stated that many of their patients are on
respirators and immunocompromised (having an impaired immune system), so they are more susceptible.
On February 15, 2024, at 8:32 a.m., an interview was conducted with the Director of Subacute (DS). The
DS stated nursing staff have to label and date the bags before they are hung and connected to the patient.
If it is not dated, it is difficult to determine how long it's been hanging there. The DS stated the risk
associated with not labeling the enteral feeding container is the patient could have abdominal issues
gastrointestinal problems such as diarrhea and nausea.
Resident 45's record was reviewed. Resident 45 was admitted to the facility on [DATE], with diagnoses
which included dysphagia (difficulty swallowing.)
Resident 45's physician orders dated November 4, 2023, indicated, .Glucerna (a brand of enteral formula)

Employ sufficient staff with the appropriate competencies and skills sets to carry out the functions of the
food and nutrition service, including a qualified dietician.
Based on observation, staff interviews, and record review, the facility failed to comply with Federal
regulations related to the oversight of food service operations when the facility did not have a full-time
Registered Dietitian and/or a full-time Director of Food Services in accordance with California Code, Health
and Safety Code - HSC § 1265.4 The lack of a full-time, qualified supervision over Food and Nutrition
services had the potential to result in inadequate supervision leading to food borne illness for seven
residents who received food from the kitchen out of a facility census of 58.
Findings:
During the Federal re-certification survey from February 12, 2024 - February 15, 2024, it was noted that
Food and Nutrition services provided meals not only to skilled nursing residents but also to a separately
licensed, Behavioral unit. The skilled nursing facility's Director of Nutritional Services (DRD) and the
Nutritional Services Manager (DSS) were working in 3 different facilities, Acute Hospital, Skilled Nursing
facility (SNF) and Behavioral unit. Review of the organizational structure of the facility identified that the
Skilled Nursing Facility was part of a continuing care of the Acute Hospital care.
According to the California Code, Health, and Safety Code - HSC § 1265.4: A licensed health facility,
shall employ a full-time, part-time, or consulting dietitian. A health facility that employs a registered dietitian
less than full time, shall also employ a qualified full-time dietetic services supervisor to supervise dietetic
service operations.
On February 12, 2024, at 9:56 a.m., an interview was conducted with the DRD and the DSS. The DRD and
the DSS stated both of them were in charge as Food service/dietetic services supervisors with the Acute
Hospital, Skilled Nursing Facility and Behavioral unit.
On February 14, 2024, at 10:17 a.m., a phone interview was conducted with the Registered Dietician (RD)
3 and RD 4. RD 3 and RD 4 stated both of them worked as part time clinical dietitian two days per week at
the SNF. RD 3 and RD 4 claimed they never involved any Food service/dietetic services work at the SNF.
On February 14, 2024, at 10:36 a.m., an interview was conducted with RD 2. RD 2 stated she worked as a
full time clinical dietitian at the SNF. RD 2 explained her main focus work loads were providing residents'
nutrition assessment, evaluating Residents' with weight issue and developing residents' nutritional care
plans. RD 2 stated she did not have experience of food service management work. RD 2 stated the Food
service/dietetic services work at the SNF she perform were less than an hour test tray one time per month
and less than an hour sanitation kitchen audit one time per month.
On February 15, 2024, at 12:55 p.m., an interview was conducted with the Chief Operating Officer (COO).
The COO confirmed the DRD and the DSS were the supervisors of Food and Nutrition Services which
included the Acute Hospital, Skilled Nursing Facility and behavioral unit.

carry out the functions of food and nutrition services safely and effectively when:
Residents Affected - Some
1. The Director of Nutritional Services and the Nutritional Service Manager did not instruct food service
workers to follow manufacturer guideline for monitor temperature on dish machine.
2. The cook used wrong scoop plated lunch meal on February 13, 2024, for four residents (Residents 2, 19,
30, and 54). (Cross reference 803)
These failures had the potential for unsafe food practices which may lead to foodborne illness (stomach
illness acquired from ingesting contaminated food), and the potential to not meet the nutritional needs of
the residents in a medically vulnerable population of seven out of 58 sample residents who received food
prepared in the kitchen.
1. During a review of the Federal FDA (Food and Drug Administration) Food Code 2022, Annex 3: Section
4-204.115 Warewashing Machines, Temperature Measuring Devices, the FDA Food Code indicated, The
requirement for the presence of a temperature measuring device in each tank of the warewashing machine
is based on the importance of temperature in the sanitization step. In hot water machines, it is critical that
minimum temperatures be met at the various cycles so that the cumulative effect of successively rising
temperatures causes the surface of the item being washed to reach the required temperature for
sanitization.
During a review of the Federal FDA (Food and Drug Administration) Food Code 2022, Annex 3: Section
4-204.113 Warewashing Machine, Data Plate Operating Specifications, the FDA Food Code indicated, The
data plate provides the operator with the fundamental information needed to ensure that the machine is
effectively washing, rinsing, and sanitizing equipment and utensils. The warewashing machine has been
tested, and the information on the data plate represents the parameters that ensure effective operation and
sanitization and that need to be monitored.
On February 13, 2024, at 10:47 a.m., a concurrent observation, and record review of the high temperature
dish machine was conducted. Observed the high temperature dish machine power wash temperature from
gauge was 140 degrees Fahrenheit (°F - a unit of measurement) while doing dishes. Reviewed the
manufacturer's guideline data plate for First tank power scrapper temperature on dish machine indicated

Dispose of garbage and refuse properly.
Level of Harm - Minimal harm
or potential for actual harm
Based on observation, interview, and record review, the facility failed to dispose of garbage and refuse
properly when trash was found on the ground surrounding the trash compactor, and the trash was piled up
above the fill rim of the trash compactor.
Residents Affected - Some
This failure had the potential to attract rodents and insects which could place residents at risk for cross
contamination (the process by which bacteria are unintentionally transferred from one substance or object
with harmful effect) and foodborne illness (illnesses cause from ingestion contaminated food).
Findings:
During an observation and interview of Foodservice Worker (FSW), on February 13, 2024, at 2:00 p.m., the
FSW was observed taking trash to the trash compactor located in the parking lot at the back of the facility.
Bags of trash were seen above the trash compactor fill line, and loose trash (gloves, glass bottles, paper)
on the ground around the compactor. One clear, plastic trash bag was hanging over the side of the trash
compactor with a yellow liquid in it. There was a strong odor around the compactor. The FSW stated
whoever emptied the trash before, should have completed the process by using the compactor to push the
bags seen above the rim of the compactor into the dumpster. The FSW stated the trash on the ground is
also supposed to be cleaned up and there should be nothing hanging over the sides of the trash
compactor. He further stated the reason for compacting the trash into the dumpster was to prevent pests
from being attracted to the smell.
During an observation with concurrent interview on February 13, 2024, at 2:41 p.m., with the Director of
Nutrition Services (DRD) and the Environmental Services (EVS) Supervisor, the DRD stated trash bags are
not supposed to be left outside the compactor because it will attract pests. EVS was supposed to keep the
area around the trash compactor clean. The EVS Supervisor also stated trash was not supposed to be on
the ground surrounding the compactor area and trash should be pushed into the dumpster and not be left
exposed because of the risk of infection from unwanted pests.
A review of the facility's policy titled EVS- Trash Compactor and Area last reviewed September 2019,
indicated, .Compactor area is cleaned daily of debris and washed weekly with cleaning solution and steam
.
A review of Food and Drug Administration (FDA) guidelines titled FDA Food Code 2022, dated January 18,
2023, indicated in 5-501.15(B), Receptacles and waste handling units for REFUSE and recyclables such as
an on-site compactor shall be installed so that accumulation of debris and insect and rodent attraction and
harborage are minimized and effective cleaning is facilitated around and, if the unit is not installed flush with
the base pad, under the unit.
