This survey cited 1 deficiency. The full statement and the facility’s plan of correction follow, verbatim from the federal record.

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 interview, medical record review, facility document review, and facility P&P review, the facility failed to provide the necessary respiratory care and services for two of two sampled residents (Residents 1 and 2) who were dependent on the ventilator with tracheostomy for breathing. Residents Affected - Few * The facility failed to ensure Resident 1's ventilator circuit was effectively monitored. As a result, the resident experienced the respiratory arrest. * The facility failed to ensure the P&Ps for respiratory care and services were followed for Resident 2 when the oxygen therapy and a part of the disposable ventilator circuit was replaced and rinsed by a non-qualified personnel. These failures posed the risk of delayed care and interventions for the residents. Findings: 1. Review of the facility's P&P titled Subacute Ventilator Management reviewed [DATE] showed to establish a mutual understanding and a standard of ventilator management for Nursing staff and Respiratory Therapists, which work as a team to provide quality ventilator support. Ventilator management and support will be provided by doing Ventilator Rounds/Checks every four hours and as needed by the Respiratory Therapist which consists of: a. Providing a complete assessment and support for any needs the patient may have at that time. b. Visual inspection of the ventilator and its equipment. If a ventilator failure/ malfunction is evident, ventilate the resident with a manual resuscitator and replace the ventilator with an operational unit (See Ventilator Failure). c. Document pertinent information/findings and current vent settings/alarm settings. d. Provide airway maintenance by providing suctioning of the trachea or mouth when necessary. e. Keeping the patient care team informed of any changes in patient's condition. f. Assessing and monitoring the status of the resident's stoma. g. Monitor the HME and other equipment and change per policy. (continued on next page) Any deficiency statement ending with an asterisk (*) denotes a deficiency which the institution may be excused from correcting providing it is determined that other safeguards provide sufficient protection to the patients. (See instructions.) Except for nursing homes, the findings stated above are disclosable 90 days following the date of survey whether or not a plan of correction is provided. For nursing homes, the above findings and plans of correction are disclosable 14 days following the date these documents are made available to the facility. If deficiencies are cited, an approved plan of correction is requisite to continued program participation.

F 0695 Review of facility's P&P titled Code Blue reviewed [DATE] showed Code Blue is to be called: Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm a. In emergency situations when a patient has a significant change or Residents Affected - Few b. On any patient in cardiac or respiratory arrest unless there is a specific physician order to the contrary. (See withholding/withdrawing life support). Examples of significant changes: i. Decreasing level of consciousness – unresponsiveness ii. Hypotension – lack of audible/palpable BP iii. Dyspnea – apnea iv. Sudden decreasing or absent peripheral pulses v. Uncontrolled hemorrhage vi. Ventricular fibrillation vii. Ventricular tachycardia viii. Asystole c. Rapid Response is to be called when a patient is identified as at risk according to selected criteria. Review of facility's P&P titled Tracheostomy Tube Suctioning with an In-line Catheter reviewed on [DATE] showed the resident with tracheostomy tube will be suctioned every two hours and as needed. Review of [NAME] Respironics Trilogy 202 Ventilator User Manual showed: Alarm Summary Table indication of high, medium, and low priority and recommended clinical actions as follows: - Low Circuit Leak: High priority, recommended clinician action was to remove obstruction in leak device. Reduce the flow rate to in line nebulizer or low pressure oxygen bleed into the circuit. If the alarm continues, have the device serviced. - High Resp Rate: High priority, recommended clinician action was to verify patient status - High Insp Pressure: Escalates from audible indicator to medium priority and then high priority, recommended clinician action was to verify patient status. If the problem continues, have the device serviced. - Circuit disconnect: High priority, recommended clinician action was to reconnect tubing or fix leak. - Low minute ventilation: High priority, recommended clinician action was to verify patient status.
