Level of Harm - Minimal harm

Residents Affected - Few
her oxygen concentrator turned on to 2 LPM . Resident #1's oxygen concentrator filters located to the left
and the right of the device were observed to have significant brown, black, and grey debris sediment
accumulation present. Resident was alert but had minimal verbal capabilities and was not appropriate for
interview at this time.
On 10/19/2023 at 12:02 pm, in an observation and interview with Resident #1's staff nurse for the day, LVN
A, she stated that Resident #1 required oxygen continuously. Upon inspection of Resident #1's oxygen
concentrator, she stated that both filters were dirty; but she was not certain the last time they were
inspected or cleaned. Additionally, she was not certain whose responsibility it was to ensure resident
oxygen concentrators and filters were maintained and cleaned. She speculated it was the maintenance
departments responsibility but again stated she was not certain. She stated it could compromise the
oxygen concentrator's function and delivery of oxygen to the resident if the filters were not kept clean.
In interview with the ADON on 10/19/2023 at 12:30 pm, she stated she cleaned Resident #1's oxygen
concentrator filters last week. She stated she was recently assigned to Resident #1 for leadership rounding
every morning to ensure resident oxygen concentrators and filters were kept clean; but she did not notice
this morning during her rounding. She stated if resident oxygen concentrator filters were not kept clean,
particles in the air could go into her lungs and cause infection.
In interview with the DON on 10/19/2023 at 1:30 pm, she stated it was her expectation that the weekend
night shift nurse was responsible for wiping down and changing the filters on the oxygen concentrators. She
stated it was her expectation, but it was not written down anywhere. Additionally, she stated that leadership
rounded on each resident each morning and this should have been addressed that way. She stated she did
not have any recent in-services related to oxygen therapy devices to provide for review. She stated if
residents' oxygen concentrators and filters were not kept clean, it could have led to infection control issues
for the residents.
In interview with the Administrator on 10/19/2023 at 2:25 pm, she stated it was her expectation that nursing
staff properly should have maintained resident oxygen concentrator devices and cleaned the filters when
needed. She stated typically it was theweekend night shift nurse's responsibility, but her leadership team
also rounds on each resident to ensure resident oxygen concentrators were maintained and filters were
cleaned. She stated that if residents' oxygen concentrator and filters were not kept clean, it could
compromise the flow of oxygen delivery to the resident.
Review of facility policy, Oxygen Administration, rev. 02/13/207, revealed Goals . 1. The resident will
maintain oxygenation with safe and effective delivery of prescribed oxygen . 15. Oxygen concentrators
should be cleaned according to manufacture recommendations. 16. Change or clean oxygen concentrator
filters according to manufactures' recommendations.
Review of Resident #1's oxygen concentrator manufacturer manual, titled Invacare Platinum 10 L oxygen
Concentrator, dated 06/17/2016, revealed 6. Usage . Warning Risk of Injury or Damage . To avoid injury or
