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 record review the facility failed to ensure oxygen tubing was labeled for one of
one sampled resident (Resident 2) who was receiving respiratory therapy by a nasal cannula (N/C, a tube
used to deliver oxygen to help with breathing).
Residents Affected - Few
This deficient practice had the potential to result in Resident 2's oxygen tubing not being changed and
could have resulted in infection to Resident 2.
Findings:
During a review of Resident 2's admission Record (AR), the AR indicated Resident 2 was admitted to the
facility on [DATE] with diagnoses that included chronic diastolic (congestive) heart failure (heart doesn't
pump blood as well as it should), chronic respiratory failure (condition making it difficult to breath on your
own), and dependence on supplemental oxygen (not enough oxygen in your bloodstream to supply organs
and tissues).
During a review of Resident 2's History & Physical (H&P), dated 2/14/24, the H&P indicated Resident 2 had
decision making capacities.
During a review of the Order Summary Report (OSR), active orders as of 2/16/24, the OSR included a
physician's order, dated
2/16/24, the order indicated to change Resident 2's oxygen tubing and respiratory bag as needed, and
every night shift every Sunday.
During a concurrent observation and interview on 2/15/24, at 3:16 p.m., with Licensed Vocational Nurse
(LVN 1), at Resident 2's bedside, Resident 2 was observed being administered 4 liters (L) of oxygen by
nasal cannula while in bed. Resident 2's oxygen tubing was not labeled and LVN 1 stated O2 (oxygen)
tubing should be labeled with Resident 2's name, the date, and the time the tubing was changed. LVN 1
stated labelling the oxygen tubing was important [for the facility to] know when the tubbing was put on and
we [the staff] can change it when it's done [due to be changed] for infection control [purposes].
During an interview on 2/16/24, at 4:30 p.m., with the Director of Nursing (DON), the DON stated labelling
oxygen tubing was part of [following] infection control [practices]. The DON stated the facility policy was to
change oxygen tubing every week and stated, how would we [the facility] know when it [oxygen tubing] has
been changed?
