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 for one of one sampled resident
(Resident 4)
Percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy (PEG- a tube placed in the stomach to provide food, water, and
medications) tube placement
and residual were checked before administering medications.
This failure had the potential to affect the health and well being for Resident 4.
Findings:
During a review of Resident 4's clinical record, the history and physical (a document that contains basic
information) indicated
Resident 4 was admitted to the facility on [DATE], with diagnoses which included PEG tube.
During a concurrent medication pass observation, and interview on March 13, 2024, at 8:01 AM, with
Licensed Vocational Nurse (LVN 1), the LVN 1 was administering medications through the PEG tube. LVN 1
did not check Resident 4's PEG tube placement and residual before administering the medications. When
asked why she did not check Resident 4's tube placement and residual, she stated knows she has to do it
and they usually check it once a shift. She further stated she knows the right way is to check placement and
residual every medication administration. She stated unfortunately she missed some steps.
During a review of the facility's Policy and Procedure (P&P) undated, titled, Tube Feeding, indicated, .Pull

Based on observation, interview, and record review, the facility failed follow their policy and procedure for
one of three sampled
Residents Affected - Few
residents (resident 20) when Resident 20's PRN (as needed) oxygen physician order did not include
indication.
This failure had the potential to cause Resident 20 to receive inadequate oxygen and place Resident 20 at
higher risk of insufficient
oxygenation.
Findings:
During a record review of the facility's face sheet (a document containing resident's demographic and
medical information) of
resident 20,the face sheet indicated Resident 20 was admitted with a diagnosis which included Congestive
Heart failure (a chronic
condition which causes low oxygen level because the heart cannot pump enough oxygen the way it
should).
During an observation on March 12, 2024, at 9:00 AM, in Resident 20's room, Resident 20 was observed
lying in bed with a nasal
cannula (NC-a medical device that provides supplemental oxygen therapy to Resident 20) set at 2 liters
(unit of measurement) per
minute.
During a review of Resident 20's Physician Orders, dated March 13, 2024, it indicated, oxygen at 2 liters
per minute via NC PRN.
Further review of Resident 20's oxygen physicians order, it was noted that there was no indication for its
use.
During an interview on March 14, 2024, at 11:36 AM, in the nursing station with Licensed Vocational Nurse
(LVN 1), LVN 1
acknowledged Resident 20 had no indication for oxygen use. LVN 1 further stated there was no
documented administration and indication for oxygen use.
During an interview on March 19, 2024, at 4:00 PM, in the Director of Nursing's office with the Director of
Nursing (DON), DON
acknowledged Resident 20's PRN order for oxygen administration does not have an indication.

Implement gradual dose reductions(GDR) and non-pharmacological interventions, unless contraindicated,
prior to initiating or instead of continuing psychotropic medication; and PRN orders for psychotropic
medications are only used when the medication is necessary and PRN use is limited.
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
interview, and record review, the facility failed to ensure an order for Clonazepam ( a psychotropic
medication that affects how the brain works and causes changes in mood, awareness, feelings and
behavior) PRN (give only as needed) was renewed by the physician within 14 days for one of three
sampled residents (Resident 17).
This failure had the potential for Resident 17 to continue to receive PRN doses of Clonazepam, that may no
longer be necessary and could cause changes in Resident 17's fatigue, mood and memory problems.
Findings:
During a review of Resident 17's History and Physical (H&P- a document that includes a Resident 17's
medical assessment performed by a medical provider), the H&P indicated, Resident 17 was admitted to the
facility on [DATE] with diagnoses including severe deconditioning (mental and physical decline that results
from physical inactivity), anxiety (feeling of fear, dread and uneasiness that can cause physical stress), and
hypertension (HTN- high blood pressure).
During a concurrent interview and record review on March 19, 2024, at 10:23 AM, with Pharmacist, the
Interdisciplinary Care Plan (ICDP) Notes- Quarterly dated 10/18/2023 was reviewed. The ICDP
Notes-Quarterly indicated, .reduce [Clonazepam] 0.5 QHS (every night at bedtime) and 0.25 in am (the
morning) with 0.25 PRN (only as needed).
The Pharmacist stated, Resident 17's Clonazepam dose had been decreased during a gradual dose
reduction (GDR- an assessment performed by a facility to reduce the dose of antipsychotic medication a
resident is taking) in October 2023. Resident 17's morning dose was cut in half from Clonazepam 0.5 mg
(milligrams- units of measure) to Clonazepam 0.25 mg, and Clonazepam 0.25 mg was added with the
intention to stop the PRN dose if Resident 17 tolerated this well. The Pharmacist also stated he did not
know if the order had been renewed or if the attending physician had reevaluated Resident 17 for continued
used of this medication.
During a concurrent interview and record review on March 19, 2024, at 2:14 PM, with Physician (MD),
Resident 17's Order Summary was reviewed. The Order Summary indicated, .Clonazepam 0.25 mg tab
oral PRN daily start date: 10/18/2023 stop date 3/18/2024.
Indication: anxiety Instructions: PRN daily at noon .
The MD stated, Resident 17's Clonazepam was reduced in October 2023 as part of the GDR. The MD
stated, he did not know that PRN psychotropic medications need to be renewed every 14 days and an
evaluation of the patient needed to be done for the renewal of apsychotropic medication.
During a review of the facility's policy and procedure (P&P) titled, Gradual Dose Reduction (GDR
