Ensure that feeding tubes are not used unless there is a medical reason and the resident agrees; and
provide appropriate care for a resident with a feeding tube.
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
interview and record review, the facility failed to base on a resident comprehensive assistance to ensure a
resident who is fed by enteral means receives the appropriate treatment and services to prevent
complications of enteral feedings for 1 of 2 residents (Resident #1).
The facility failed to follow physician orders for tube feeding for Resident #1.
This deficient practice could place residents at risk for injury and/or deterioration in their condition.
Findings include:
Record review of Resident # 1's face sheet, dated 4/25/23, revealed a [AGE] year-old female who was
admitted to facility on 2/23/22 with diagnoses which included, but were not limited to Cerebral palsy (group
of disorders that affect movement and muscle tone or posture), gastrostomy tube (feeding tube),
intermittent explosive disorder (explosive eruptions occur, suddenly with little or no warning), urinary tract
infection, muscle weakness, developmental disorder of speech and language and constipation (infrequent,
irregular or difficult evacuation of the bowels).
Record review of Resident #1's quarterly MDS, dated [DATE], revealed a BIMS of 99 which indicated the
resident had severely impaired cognition. The MDS revealed the resident required extensive assistance
with 2 person assistance with all ADL's.
Record review of Resident #1's Care Plan, dated 02/22/23, indicated the resident had a potential fluid
deficit related to inability to self-perform nutrition/hydration tasks with PEG (percutaneous endoscopic
gastrostomy) feeding/fluid intake. The resident will be free of symptoms of dehydration and maintain moist
mucous membranes, good skin turgor. Administer fluids per gastrostomy tube as ordered. The resident
requires tube feeding r/t Cerebral Palsy. The resident will remain free of side effects or complications related
to tube feeding. Check for tube placement and gastric contents/residual volume per facility protocol and
record. The resident will maintain adequate nutritional and hydration status and weight stable, no signs or
symptoms of malnutrition or dehydration through review date. The resident is dependent with tube feeding
and water flushes. See physician orders for current feeding orders.
Record review of Resident #1's orders revealed physician orders were Nutren 1.0 Liquid give 500 Milliliter
via G-Tube two times a day related to encounter for attention to gastrostomy and every shift flush tube with
60 milliliters water before and after medication and feedings. Nutren 1.0 Liquid

Record review of Resident #1's TAR tube feeding was missed on 3/6/23 at 1300 (1:00pm) and was given at
1730 (5:30 PM).
Residents Affected - Few
During an interview on 04/25/23 at 11:40 AM with the DON, when asked if the DON failed to give Resident
#1 her tube feeding on 3/6/23 at 1:00 pm, she stated, I failed to see it (order for tube feeding). The DON
stated this was her first time taking care of Resident #1 and she was new to the facility. The DON stated I
was brand new and needed to be trained on the floor, unfortunately that's what happened. The DON stated
a negative outcome to the resident could have been weight loss and skin issues. The DON stated I'll admit I
made a mistake. Resident #1 failed to receive her tube feeding at 1:00pm on 3/6/23. The facility ensured
she got her calories for the day.
During an interview on 4/25/23 at 2:37 PM with the ADON when asked how did the DON know she missed
the tube feeding at 1:00pm on 3/6/23, she stated I was the one that found the error and notified the DON
immediately. The ADON stated she noticed the tube feeding was to be delivered at 1:00 PM and discovered
around shift change that the tube feeding had not been given to Resident #1, which was around 5:00 PM.
She notified the MD and received an order to give Resident #1 an additional feeding. The ADON stated the
resident did receive all her calories for the day, it was just later in the day and into the evening when she
received all her caloric intake. Resident #1 receives all caloric intake via gastrostomy tube.
