This survey cited 7 deficiencies. The full statement and the facility’s plan of correction follow, verbatim from the federal record.

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. **NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on observation, interview, and medical record review, the facility failed to develop the comprehensive person-centered care plans for two of 21 final sampled residents (Residents 23 and 439). * Resident 23 was hearing impaired and required hearing aids. The facility failed to develop a care plan problem to address the resident's hearing deficit and use of hearing aids. This had the potential of Resident 23 not having their needs met due to inefficient communication. * The facility failed to develop a care plan problem to address Resident 439's use of an IV and increased sodium. This failure posed the risk of not providing appropriate, consistent, or individualized care to Resident 439. Findings: 1. Medical record review for Resident 23 was initiated on 12/13/19. Resident 23 was admitted to the facility on [DATE]. Review of Resident 23's history & physical examination dated 12/4/19, showed Resident 23 was hearing impaired. Review of the MDS dated [DATE], under Section B, showed Resident 23 had moderate hearing difficulty. Under the section for options showed the speaker had to increase their volume and had to speak distinctly. The MDS showed Resident 23 did not require hearing aids. Review of the plan of care showed a care plan problem dated 12/1/19, to address Resident 23's impaired communication. The interventions did not include the use of hearing aids. On 12/13/19 at 1127 hours, an observation of Resident 23 was conducted in the dining room during relaxing music time. When asked how he was enjoying the music, Resident 23 did not answer. On 12/13/19 at 1130 hours, an interview was conducted with LVN 2. LVN 2 verified Resident 23 was hearing impaired and had hearing aids. LVN 2 verified the hearing aids were not listed as an intervention in the care plan. On 12/13/19 at 1138 hours, an interview was conducted with CNA 1. CNA 1 verified Resident 23 was hard of hearing and had hearing aids locked in the medication cart.

F 0694 Provide for the safe, appropriate administration of IV fluids for a resident when needed. Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm **NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on observation, interview, medical record review, and facility P&P review, the facility failed to ensure a vascular access site was maintained and assessed as per the facility's P&P for one of 21 final sampled residents (Resident 76). This had the potential to place the resident at risk for developing a complication related to vascular access associated infections. Residents Affected - Few Findings: Review of the facility's P&P titled IV Therapy dated 6/2018 showed peripheral IV sites will be rotated at least every 96 hours and as needed. Documentation of IV therapy should include IV site assessment. On 12/12/19 at 1540 hours, an observation was conducted of Resident 76. Resident 76 was observed lying in bed with a peripheral IV inserted into her right wrist. The IV site dressing was unlabeled. Medical record review for Resident 76 was initiated on 12/12/19. Resident 76 was readmitted to the facility on [DATE]. Review of Resident 76's medical record failed to show an order for IV therapy. On 12/12/19 at 1546 hours, a concurrent observation, interview, and medical record review was conducted with RN 3. RN 3 verified Resident 76's peripheral IV on her right wrist was unlabeled. RN 3 stated Resident 76 was at the acute care hospital for approximately eight days, and RN 3 had readmitted Resident 76 to the facility on [DATE]. RN 3 stated Resident 76 was readmitted with a peripheral IV to her right wrist. RN 3 stated she was uncertain as to whether Resident 76 needed the peripheral IV. RN 3 stated when Resident 76 was readmitted to the facility, she contacted the physician. RN 3 stated she failed to ask the physician whether or not Resident 76 needed the peripheral IV. RN 3 reviewed Resident 76's medical record and was unable to determine when Resident 76's peripheral IV was inserted or how long Resident 76 had the peripheral IV. RN 3 stated the facility's P&P for residents with peripheral IV's was to assess the IV site every shift for redness, infiltration, and infection. RN 3 reviewed Resident 76's medical record and verified the facility failed to document any IV site assessments for Resident 76 since her readmission to the facility.

F 0695 Provide safe and appropriate respiratory care for a resident when needed. 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 medical record review, the facility failed to provide the necessary respiratory care and services for one of 21 final sampled residents (Resident 438). The facility failed to ensure the oxygen treatment was documented. In addition, the facility failed to develop a care plan for the oxygen and nebulizer treatment. These failures posed the risk for complications related to respiratory care. Residents Affected - Few Findings: Medical record review for Resident 438 was initiated on 12/12/19. Resident 438 was readmitted to the facility on [DATE]. Review of Resident 438's Physician and Telephone Orders showed the following physician's orders: - 12/9/19, administer Duoneb (a bronchodilator, relaxes muscles in the airway) one unit dose every eight hours as needed for two weeks. - 12/10/19, apply oxygen inhalation 3 liters per minute via nasal cannula (flexible tube to deliver oxygen into the nose) to maintain the oxygen saturation above 90%. a. Review of Resident 438's Medication Record for December 2019 showed an entry dated 12/10/19, to adminster oxygen three liters per minute via nasal cannula to maintain the oxygen saturation above 90%, FYI (for your information). The Medication Record did not show the licensed nurses documented the administration of oxygen to Resident 438. b. Review of Resident 438's plan of care failed to show a care plan problem to address the use of oxygen and Duoneb. On 12/17/19 at 1031 hours, an interview and concurrent medical record review was conducted with LVN 1, with RN 2. LVN 1 and RN 2 verified the above findings. When asked about the oxygen administration for Resident 438, LVN 1 stated Resident 438 was receiving three liters of oxygen via nasal cannula. When asked where she documented the oxygen administration for Resident 438, LVN 1 reviewed the medication record and verified the medication record did not show the oxygen administration was documented. LVN 1 stated the licensed nurses did not have to sign the medication record because it was just an FYI. LVN 1 verified Resident 438's plan of care did not show the use of oxygen and Duoneb were addressed.

F 0755 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Few Provide pharmaceutical services to meet the needs of each resident and employ or obtain the services of a licensed pharmacist. **NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on observation, interview, and medical record review, the facility failed to ensure ferrous sulfate (an iron supplement) was administered as per the physician's order for one nonsampled resident (Resident 72). * Resident 72 had a physician's order for ferrous sulfate delayed release/enteric coated (DR/EC) 325 mg orally twice a day for anemia. Resident 72 received the incorrect dose (330 mg) and the incorrect form (non DR/EC) of ferrous sulfate on 10 occasions. This posed the risk of Resident 72 not receiving the therapeutic effect of the prescribed supplement. Findings: Medical Record review for Resident 72 was initiated on 12/12/19. Resident 72 was admitted to the facility on [DATE]. Resident 72 had a diagnosis of anemia. On 12/17/19 at 0815 hours, LVN 3 was observed administering Resident 72's prescribed medications. LVN 3 stated Resident 72's medications needed to be crushed before being administered to Resident 72. Resident 72 had a physician's order dated 6/14/19, for ferrous sulfate DR/EC 325 mg tablet orally twice a day for anemia. As LVN 3 prepared Resident 72's medications to be administered, LVN 3 stated ferrous sulfate DR/EC tablets could not be crushed, and she needed to clarify the order with Resident 72's physician. LVN 3 then obtained a new physician's order for ferrous sulfate liquid 330 mg/7.5 ml to be administered orally twice a day for anemia. LVN 3 then administered ferrous sulfate liquid 330 mg (7.5 ml) to Resident 72. Review of the December 2019 Medications Flowsheet showed documentation LVN 3 administered ferrous sulfate DR/EC 325 mg tablet orally to Resident 72 at 0900 hours on the following dates: 12/3, 12/4, 12/5, 12/6, 12/9, 12/10, 12/11, 12/12, 12/15, and 12/16/19. LVN 3 verified the findings; however, LVN 3 stated she did not administer ferrous sulfate DR/EC 325 mg tablet orally as ordered by the physician, to Resident 72 at 0900 hours, on 12/3, 12/4, 12/5, 12/6, 12/9, 12/10, 12/11, 12/12, 12/15, and 12/16/19. LVN 3 stated she had instead administered ferrous sulfate liquid (non DR/EC) 330 mg/7.5 ml orally to Resident 72 at 0900 hours, on 12/3, 12/4, 12/5, 12/6, 12/9, 12/10, 12/11, 12/12, 12/15, and 12/16/19. LVN 3 verified Resident 72 received the incorrect dose (330 mg) of ferrous sulfate (physician's order was for 325 mg) and the incorrect form (non DR/EC) on 12/3, 12/4, 12/5, 12/6, 12/9, 12/10, 12/11, 12/12, 12/15, and 12/16/19.

F 0761 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Few 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, interview, and facility P&P review, the facility failed to store the drugs and biologicals in a safe manner. The facility failed to ensure the proper labeling of an insulin medication. * The facility failed to ensure orally administered medications were stored separate from externally used medications and failed to ensure the alcohol wipes were stored separately from medications. This posed the risk for cross-contamination of the medications. * The facility failed to ensure an insulin medication was accurately labeled with an open date for one of 21 final sampled residents (Resident 67). Findings: 1. Review of the facility's P&P Storage of Medications dated 4/2008 showed orally administered medications are kept separate from externally used medications, such as suppositories, liquids, and lotions. Potentially harmful substances such as urine test reagent tablets, household poisons, cleaning supplies, and disinfectants are clearly identified and stored in a locked area separately from medications. On 12/13/19 at 1400 hours, an inspection of Station 2's medication cart was conducted with LVN 2. The following was observed: a. An opened tube of Refresh lacrilube eye ointment, and clonidine patches were stored in the same compartment with ibuprofen (nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug, used to treat fever and pain) tablets, omega-3 (supplement) capsules, and vitamin B12 (supplement) tablets. b. An opened box of acetaminophen suppositories (over the counter pain medication) was stored in the same compartment with an opened box of sudogest PE (nasal decongestant) tablets. c. An opened tube of muscle rub cream was stored in the same compartment with the thickener and fiber powder d. Albuterol (a bronchodilator, relaxes muscles in the airway) medications were stored in the same compartment with oral liquid medications. e.

F 0812 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Procure food from sources approved or considered satisfactory and store, prepare, distribute and serve food in accordance with professional standards. Based on observation, interview, and facility P&P review, the facility failed to ensure food safety and sanitation requirements were met in the kitchen. Residents Affected - Some * The facility failed to ensure food in the walk-in freezer was free from contamination. * There was a lack of glaze observed on the dishware. * The facility failed to ensure a refrigerated food item was properly labeled and dated. These failures had the potential to contaminate the food which could lead to food borne illness in a medically vulnerable resident population who consumed food prepared in the kitchen. Findings: Review of the CMS 672 Resident Census and Conditions of Residents completed by the facility dated 12/13/19, showed 90 of 97 residents in the facility received food prepared in the kitchen. 1. According to the USDA Food Code 2017 Section 3-305.11 Food Storage, pathogens can contaminate and/or grow in food that is not stored properly. Drips of condensate .can be sources of microbial contamination for stored food. Review of the facility's P&P titled Food Storage (undated) showed proper food storage procedures are followed to allow for effective, safe, and sanitary kitchen operations. On 12/12/19 at 1249 hours, during the initial tour of the kitchen with the DSS, the walk-in freezer pipes were observed with ice build-up and a pan under the pipes. The DSS stated the pan was used to catch the dripping water. On 12/16/19 at 0904 hours, an observation of the walk-in freezer pipes and a concurrent interview was conducted with the Environmental Director (ED). The ED stated the freezer pipes collect condensation formed from warm air. The freezer pipes were covered with insulated tape to prevent the condensation from dripping; however, the freezer pipes still dripped condensation. The pan was used to catch the dripping condensation, but the pan did not catch all the drips. An opened box of hot dogs was observed directly under the dripping pipes. The opened box of hot dogs had an accumulation of one inch of ice on the box. The ED confirmed ice should not be on an opened box of food.
