stated lunch was great, and he had no concerns with his care at this time. Observation revealed Resident #
69's cloth bed pad was discolored with dark colored rings that indicated the resident may have been
incontinent several times throughout the day. When Resident #69 was asked if he was soiled, he responded
no. Surveyor did not observe any strong urine smells, however observation of the pad revealed his bedding
had been wet at some point throughout the day. When Resident #69 was asked if he had any burning or
irritation in his groin area he responded no. When Resident #69 was asked when the last time was, he had
been changed he stated, I don't know.
Observation and interview on 08/27/24 at 3:22 PM revealed CNA C exiting the room emptying contents in
the dirty laundry barrel. During interview with Resident #69 revealed he had his bedding changed, clothing
changed, and was wearing a new brief. Resident #69 stated staff came in and changed him and bedding,

Resident #69 had been changed, and the aide on previous shift did not report any concerns for Resident
#69. According to CNA C the previous aide was responsible to ensure residents were clean and dry prior to
end of their shift and she should report any concerns if she noted otherwise. CNA C stated if Resident #69
was changed around 2:00 PM, when she entered at 3:00 PM, Resident #69 would not have soiled to his
bedding. CNA C stated since she was late to arrive to her shift, she felt it was necessary to jump in and get
him changed. CNA C stated she had not reported this to the nurse because she had to ensure all residents
had been cleaned and changed. CNA C stated having residents waiting too long to receive incontinent care
could result in skin breakdown, infection, and irritation to the skin.
Interview on 08/28/24 at 3:24 PM with CNA D revealed she worked hall 200 and cared for Resident #69 on
08/27/24. According to CNA D she usually completed incontinent care for Resident #69 twice during her
shift, once in the morning and again prior to end of her shift. According to CNA D she was really busy on
08/27/24, towels were late which made her late for completing showers. CNA D stated she was aware she
did not change the resident for a second time. CNA D stated she observed the surveyor going into Resident
#69's room. CNA D stated she was upset when she returned to resident at the end of her shift to find him
soiled down to his bed sheets. CNA D stated she then completed care, changed his bedding, and cleaned
up Resident #69. CNA D revealed she could not recall the last time she was inserviced on activities of daily

Residents Affected - Some
stated aides that worked the floor were responsible to ensure residents were changed, clean and dry in a
timely manner. LVN E stated she expected aides to notify her if they needed help with providing care so she
could get adequate help or provide help herself. LVN E stated she noticed the linen closet was short on bed
sheets and towels however it was not an excuse to prevent residents from having adequate care when it
came to being changed. According to LVN E not changing residents in a timely manner could result in
redness in their private areas and skin breakdown or infection.
Interview on 08/29/24 at 1:20 PM with the DON revealed she was alerted to incident with staff not changing
Resident #69 in a timely manner. The DON stated Resident #69 was a heavy wetter so she did not
understand how CNA D could have gone all day without changing him. The DON stated there was plenty of
staff in the building that could have assisted on the hall to ensure residents had adequate care. The DON
stated her expectations included nursing staff to alert the nurses on the floor if they were running behind or
off schedule. According to The DON not changing Resident #69 placed him at risk of skin breakdown,
infection, emotional abuse, dignity concerns and re-igniting previous pressure sores.

3. The CNA will assess the skin for any changes while performing bathing and inform the nurse of any
changes.
11. Assist the resident with showering as needed.

cleaning the perineum and buttocks after an incontinence episode. The policy did not address timeliness of
incontinent care.

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 residents who needed respiratory care
were provided such care, consistent with professional standards of practice for one (Resident #57) of three
residents reviewed for respiratory care.
Residents Affected - Few
The facility failed to ensure Resident #57's had a physician's order for oxygen treatment.
This deficient practice could affect residents who received oxygen therapy from receiving inadequate
oxygen support and a decline in health.
Findings included:
Record review of Resident #57's significant change MDS assessment dated [DATE] reflected the resident
was an [AGE] year-old female admitted to the facility on [DATE]. Her diagnoses included end stage renal
disease , non-Alzheimer's dementia, respiratory failure, hypertension (high blood pressure), atrial fibrillation
(an irregular often rapid heart rate). The MDS further reflected the resident was on hospice services.
Record review of Resident #57's progress notes dated 06/11/24 reflected the resident was on oxygen via
nasal cannula.
Observation and interview on 08/27/24 at 11:40 AM of Resident #57 revealed she in bed watching TV. The
resident was on continuous oxygen via nasal cannula, and it was running at 2 liters per minute. Resident
#57 was asked if her oxygen was working well for her and she stated it was. The resident did not appear to
be in any distress.
Record review of Resident #57's clinical record revealed there was no physician's order for the oxygen.
Interview on 08/29/24 at 12:08 PM with LVN B revealed Resident #57 had been put on continuous oxygen
a while back, possibly two months prior, because her oxygen saturations were not staying above 90% on
room air. LVN B did not realize there was not a physician's order for the oxygen when she checked the
clinical record. LVN B said the nurse that received the order should have put the order into the system but
she did know who the nurse was that got the initial order. LVN B further stated it was important to have an
oxygen order so staff would know what care was needed for the residents.
Interview on 08/29/24 at 1:46 PM with the DON revealed she was not aware Resident #57 was on
continuous oxygen and thought it was only as needed. The DON said all residents with oxygen should have
a physician's order so that all staff knew what care was needed for the residents.
Review of the facility's Oxygen Administration policy, dated September 2014, reflected the following:
Policy
