with her oxygen concentrator turned off. Resident did not have a nasal cannula in her nares. She did not
appear to be in any distress upon observation and denied any distress upon interview.
In observation and interview with RN A on 03/08/2023 at 1:06pm revealed RN A stated that Resident #175
was on oxygen yesterday but did not need oxygen today. RN A was observed referencing the electronic
medical record and stated that Resident #175 did not currently have any physician orders for oxygen at this
time. She stated she was not certain who applied oxygen to Resident #175 yesterday and that the resident
was not capable of doing it herself. RN A stated it was required for residents on oxygen to have a physician
order for safety purposes and that she would call the physician next to obtain an order.
In interview with the MDS Coordinator on 03/09/2023 at 10:33am, she stated that it was a shared
responsibility to ensure care plans were updated and accurate to reflect the resident's care needs and
requirements. She stated it was a team effort, as the DON was responsible for completing the initial or
admission care plan and she was responsible to updating resident care plans. She stated the physician
orders were what triggered her to update resident care plans and unless a physician order was obtained, it
would not initiate her to re-evaluate or update resident care plans. She stated if resident care plans were
not updated to reflect resident care needs and requirements, the facility cannot ensure that the best care
was provided.
In interview with the DON on 03/09/2023 at 9:57am she stated oxygen therapy would not necessarily need
to be included in Resident #175's care plan, but it would be best if it was on there. She stated that care
plans were important as they guide the facility on the care needs and requirements of the resident. She
stated it was the MDS nurse's responsibility to ensure updates were completed to resident care plans.

In interview with the DON on 03/09/2023 at 9:57am she stated at her facility oxygen is a standing order and
if she [Resident #175] needs it [oxygen] she can have it. She further stated that Resident #175 did not need
oxygen and she was not sure how that happened. The DON stated that the potential outcome of Resident
#175 receiving oxygen without a physician notification and order was not concerning, as oxygen does not
hurt her [Resident #175.] She later stated that physician orders are required for resident care and
interventions at her facility for safety reasons. She stated that her expectations were for resident oxygen
concentrator filters to be present and clean as it was an infection control risk, and that residents can get
sick from debris going into resident respiratory systems. She stated that it was the nurse's responsibility to
ensure this was performed weekly and as needed. When asked Resident #175's care plan, she stated that
oxygen therapy would not necessarily need to be included, but it would be best if it was on there. She
stated that care plans were important as they guide the facility on the care needs and requirements of the
