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, facility failed to thoroughly investigate Resident 10's fall episode on 11/1/2021. Residents Affected - Few This deficient practice had the potential to put Resident 10 at risk for repeated falls, injury, and harm. Findings: A review of the admission Record indicated Resident 10 was admitted on [DATE], with diagnoses that included bipolar disorder (a mental health illness that causes extreme mood swings that include emotional highs [mania] and lows [depression], and schizophrenia (a serious mental illness that affects how a person thinks, feels, and behaves). A review of the Minimum Data Set (MDS - an assessment and care planning tool), dated 8/10/21, indicated Resident 10 had no cognitive (mental action or process of acquiring knowledge and understanding) impairment, was able to express ideas and wants and was able to understand others. During a concurrent observation with Licensed Vocational Nurse 2 (LVN 2) on 11/1/2021 at 1:26 pm inside Resident 10's room, Resident 10 was lying on the floor sideways. The wheelchair was observed beside Resident 10. Resident 10 was observed to have sustained a left knee open wound. Certified Nursing Assistant 1 (CNA 1) came and assisted LVN 2 move Resident 10 back into the wheelchair.

During an interview on 11/3/2021 at 1:16 pm, the Director of Nursing (DON) stated if there was a fall incident, the Charge Nurse (CN) needed to inform the Registered Nurse Supervisor (RN Supervisor) and the DON. DON stated the RN Supervisor would conduct an assessment on the resident who had a fall. DON stated he needed to be informed of the Resident's fall so he could ensure processes would be followed after the fall. The DON stated the CN would need to fill up a change of condition (COC) report in order to , track fall episodes to prevent future falls. DON also stated the CN would need to notify the attending physician so he can be made aware and could provide MD orders after the fall. During an interview on 11/3/2021 at 1:28 pm, the RN Supervisor stated there was no fall reported for 11/2021. The RN Supervisor stated if a resident fall occurred, the CN assigned to the resident would need to document, complete a COC report and observe the resident for 72 hours.

This deficient practice had the potential to put Resident 17 at risk for falls, injury, and harm. Findings: A review of the admission Record indicated Resident 17 was readmitted to the facility on [DATE] with diagnoses which included epilepsy (a neurological disorder marked by sudden recurrent episodes of sensory disturbance, loss of consciousness, or convulsions, associated with abnormal electrical activity in the brain) and hypertension (increased blood pressure). A review of the Minimum Data Set (MDS, a resident assessment and care screening tool), dated 8/15/2021 indicated Resident 17 had clear speech, had the ability to understand others and make self understood. Resident 17 required supervision (oversight, encouragement or cueing) with set up help only for transfer, walking in room, walking in corridor and toilet use. During an observation in Resident 17's room and concurrent interview on 11/1/2021 at 9:55 am, Resident 17 was sitting on a chair, which was in between the foot board of his bed and the head board of an unoccupied metal bed frame (without a mattress). Resident 17's bed side table was infront of him with a cup of water on top of it. The head portion of the unoccupied metal bed frame was elevated and was higher than the head board, with the corners pointing outward. The space where Resident 17 sat was only enough for one chair. Resident 17 stated this was a three occupancy resident room. Resident 17 stated the unoccupied metal bed frame was in his room for awhile now. Resident 17 stated he did not know why this was stored inside the room because it was taking away a lot of space. Resident 17 stood up, pushed away his bed side table to get out of chair and walked around the room with unsteady steps while trying to hold on to support surface. During an interview on 11/1/2021 at 10:05 am, Maintenance Supervisor (MS) stated Resident 17's room should only have three beds since it was a three occupancy resident room. MS stated he did not know why the 4th bed frame was in this room. MS stated the facility should not put an extra bed in Resident 17's room. MS stated it was a dangerous environment for Resident 17 especiallyit was a metal bed frame with the corners pointing out. MS stated this was an accident hazard. MS stated if Resident 17 falls, he could injure himself by accidentally hit his head on corner of the metal bed frame. MS stated an extra bed in room took away living space from residents and limited their movement in the room. MS stated it was important to keep residents free from possible injury. A review of Resident 17's care plan, initiated 1/23/2019 indicated Resident 17 was at risk for falls/injury because of arthritis (inflammation of joints), behavioral problems, dementia (an overall term for diseases and conditions characterized by a decline in memory, language, problem-solving and other thinking skills that affect a person's ability to perform everyday activities).

This deficient practice resulted to Resident 181's urinary catheter dislodgment and had the potential to result in catheter related complications such as urethral tear (injury to the urethra [tube-like organ that carries urine from the bladder out of the body] or to result in a delay of necessary care, treatment, and possible infection. Findings: A review of the admission Record indicated Resident 181 was readmitted to the facility on [DATE] with diagnoses of, but not limited to, urinary tract infection (UTI, condition in which bacteria invade and grow in any part the urinary system which includes the kidneys, bladder, ureters [tube that carries urine from the kidney to the urinary bladder], and urethra [canal from the bladder), retention of urine (difficulty urinating and completely emptying the bladder), and schizophrenia (disorder that affects a person's ability to think, feel, and behave clearly). A review of the Minimum Data Set (MDS, a standardized assessment and screening tool), dated 9/16/2021, indicated Resident 181 had a short-term memory problem and impaired cognitive skills (mental action or process of acquiring knowledge and understanding) for daily decision making. MDS indicated Resident 181 required supervision with transfers, walking in room, and locomotion off unit. MDS also indicated Resident 181 required limited assistance with dressing, toilet use, and personal hygiene. A review of Resident 181's Order Summary Report, dated 11/1/2021 indicated to secure Foley catheter tubing with anchor to minimize dislodging of catheter. During an observation on 11/1/2021 at 9:49 am, Resident 181 got out of bed on her own and walked in the hallway. Resident 181 pushed a pole with the enteral feeding (nutrition delivered directly to the stomach) pump attached to the pole. The Foley catheter tubing was wrapped around the pole where the enteral feeding was attached. Foley catheter tubing was not secured to Resident 181's leg. During a concurrent observation in Resident 181's room and interview on 11/1/21 at 10:15 am, Licensed Vocational Nurse 2 (LVN 2) stated Resident 181's foley catheter tubing was not secured to resident's leg and the plastic clip on the foley catheter was not clipped to anything. LVN 2 stated the foley catheter should have been secured to avoid being pulled out. During a concurrent observation in Resident 181's room with Certified Nurse Assistant (CNA) and Licensed Vocational Nurse (LVN) on 11/1/21 at 1:39 pm, Resident 181 was observed trying to pull the foley catheter out. Resident 181's foley catheter was observed not secured.

LVN 2 stated the device was to keep the foley catheter in place and prevent it from being pulled out. Resident 181's foley catheter tubing was observed not secured in the device. During an interview on 11/3/21 at 1:15 pm, Restorative Nurse Assistant (RNA) stated the foley drainage bag should be lower than her bladder, if not the urine could backflow and cause an infection. RNA stated the Foley catheter tubing should be attached to Resident 181's leg to prevent it from being pulled out. A review of Resident 181's Care Plan for Foley Catheter, initiated on 10/29/2021 and revised on 11/2/2021 indicated staff interventions were for the staff maintain proper alignment of the foley catheter to promote proper drainage. A review of Resident 181's Care Plan titled, Change of Condition, dated 11/2/2021, indicated staff interventions were for the nurse to provide standard nursing care, reassurance, alleviate pain or discomfort as needed and for a resident to be assessed by licensed nurse. A review of the facility's undated policy titled, Foley Catheter Maintenance, indicated staff interventions were to never elevate the drainage bag to or above the level of the bladder with the objective to prevent backflow.

F 0692 Provide enough food/fluids to maintain a resident's health. 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 staff failed to follow physician's order for G-tube (a tube inserted through the abdomen that delivers nutrition directly to the stomach) feeding in accordance with professional standards of practice for one of five sampled residents (Resident 27.) Residents Affected - Few This deficient practice had the potential for Resident 27 not to receive needed nutrition which could lead to malnutrition. Findings: A review of Resident 27's admission record indicated the resident was readmitted to the facility on [DATE] with diagnosis including dysphagia (difficulty swallowing), and Gastrostomy (the creation of an artificial external opening into the stomach for nutritional support or medication administration ). A review of Resident 27's Minimum Data Set (MDS), a resident assessment and care screening tool, dated 9/1/2021 indicated the resident had unclear speech, usually understood others and made self understood. Resident 27 required total dependence (full staff performance every time) with one person physical assistance for transfer, eating and personal hygiene. A review of Resident 27's Order Summary Report for active orders as of 11/1/2021 indicated an order of enteral feeding, once a day of Jevita 1.5 CAL ( formula that provides complete, balanced nutrition for tube feeding) at 55 milliliters (ml- unit of measurement) per (each) hour for 8 hours via pump to provide 440 ml/660 kcal per day, to start from 6 PM to 2 AM. During an observation on 11/1/2021 at 12:30 pm, Resident 27 was sitting on a wheelchair in his room. One staff was feeding Resident 27. Resident 27 completed 100 percent (%) of his meal. During an observation on 11/3/2021 at 8:09 am, Resident 27 was lying in bed with G-Tube pump at bedside with Jevita 1.5 CAL bottle hanging on a pole and the pump was not running. In a concurrent interview, Licensed Vocational Nurse 2 (LVN 2) verified a total of 297 ml of Jevita 1.5 CAL was delivered to Resident 27. LVN 2 stated the daily feeding time to Resident 27 was scheduled from 6 PM to 2 AM to deliver 440 ml of Jevita 1.5 CAL as ordered. LVN 2 stated the licensed nurse from the previous shift should run the tube feeding for Resident 27 until 440 ml was delivered. LVN 2 stated Resident 27 did not receive then full amount of tube feeding of 440 ml of Jevita 1.5 CAL on 11/3/21. LVN 2 stated Resident 27 was at risk for weight loss and tube feeding was to provide the resident the necessary nutrition and hydration to promote physical and mental well being. A review of Resident 27's care plan revised 7/1/2021 indicated the resident is on G-tube feeding, was at risk for aspiration (accidental breathing in of food or fluid) dehydration (body loses too much water and other fluids) weight fluctuation, weight gain or weight loss. The care plan nursing interventions included to administer enteral feedings as ordered and to check feeding bag prior to end of shift to ensure adequacy and accuracy of volume. A review of the facility's Policy and Procedure titled Enteral Nutrition revised 2019, indicated, enteral nutrition will be provided to residents who are unable to meet their nutrition and hydration needs by oral administration, nursing will be responsible for tube feeding administration.
