F 0695 Record, titled, Tracheal suctioning, humidification, and tracheostomy tube exchange on 10/14/24. Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm During an observation and interview on 10/14/24 at 9:30 a.m., Resident #284 was lying in bed with a tracheostomy tube attached to her neck with oxygen delivered into the tracheostomy by a tracheostomy mask (soft plastic mask that fits over the tracheostomy in which oxygen is delivered) at 3 liters. She said she did not need to be suctioned very often, and the nurses cleaned the tracheostomy and changed it often. Residents Affected - Few During an observation and interview on 10/14/24 at 1:38 p.m., LVN A said she had been educated on tracheostomy care, technique and infection control with a presentation and return demonstration. During tracheostomy care for Resident #284, LVN A pulled out the tracheostomy tube along with the inner cannula. She then laid both on the sterile drape. LVN A then attempted to insert a clean inner cannula without the tracheostomy tube in place. At this time LVN A realized her error and placed oxygen over the open stoma for Resident #284 to have continuous oxygen. The DON and the ADON entered Resident #284's room. The ADON reinserted Resident #284's tracheostomy tube and a new inner cannula with sterile gloves. Resident #284 was assessed by nursing staff. Resident #284 had even unlabored respirations and a pulse oximeter measurement of 97 percent oxygen level. During an interview on 10/14/24 at 2:00 pm, LVN A said she accidently pulled the tracheostomy tube and inner cannula out and panicked when she realized it. She said she had been educated and was aware of how to perform tracheostomy care. She said she did not know what happened. LVN A said she had been trained to only remove the inner cannula during tracheostomy care. She said the DON and the ADON were available should any staff need assistance with procedures or had any questions. She said the risk of improper tracheostomy care was a resident could become short of breath and have respiratory problems. During an interview on 10/14/24 at 3:00 p.m., the DON and the ADON said the nurse providing care for the resident was responsible for proper tracheostomy care. They said all the facility nurses were currently educated on proper tracheostomy care. The DON had scheduled a refresher training on tracheostomy care with a contract respiratory therapist on 10/14/24. The DON said she and the ADON were available to assist with any procedures or questions if needed. They said Resident #284's tracheal tube should not have been removed during tracheostomy care, only the inner cannula was to be changed during care. They said the risk to the resident of improper tracheostomy care was respiratory distress. The DON said her expectation was tracheostomy care to be provided correctly and the nurses to notify herself or the ADON if they were uncomfortable with any procedures and receive extra training. During an interview on 10/14/24 at 3:18 p.m., the Administrator said the nurses were responsible for providing tracheostomy care to the resident and had the ADON and the DON for backup assistance if needed. He said all facility staff nurses were educated on tracheostomy care and would receive refresher training. He said the tracheostomy tube and inner cannula were accidentally removed by LVN A. The Administrator said the risk of improper tracheostomy care was a potential infection issue. He said his expectation was for the nurses to perform to the best of their ability and perform quality tracheostomy care. Record review of a facility policy dated 07/19/22, titled, Tracheostomy Care Procedure indicated, .Trach care can help the patient breathe easier and can also prevent infection. 5. If the inner cannula is disposable, gently remove, and replace with a clean inner cannula. 7. When replacing trach ties, always leave one hand on the flange (part of the tracheostomy tube that attaches to the neck and stabilizes the tube) to ensure that the tracheostomy stays in the stoma (opening in the neck (continued on next page) FORM CMS-2567 (02/99) Previous Versions Obsolete Event ID: Facility ID: 675172 If continuation sheet Page 2 of 15 Printed: 05/15/2026 Form Approved OMB No. 0938-0391 Department of Health & Human Services Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services STATEMENT OF DEFICIENCIES AND PLAN OF CORRECTION (X1) PROVIDER/SUPPLIER/CLIA IDENTIFICATION NUMBER: (X2) MULTIPLE CONSTRUCTION 675172 B.

F 0727 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Many Have a registered nurse on duty 8 hours a day; and select a registered nurse to be the director of nurses on a full time basis. Based on interview and record review, the facility failed to use the services of a registered nurse for 8 at least consecutive hours 7 days a week for 1 of 4 quarters of 2023 (Quarter 1 - October 01, 2023, through December 31, 2023) PBJ reports reviewed for RN coverage. The facility did not have RN coverage for 10/07/2023, 11/11/2023, 11/12/23, 11/25/23, 12/03/23, 12/16/23, and 12/17/2023. This failure could place residents at risk of lack of nursing oversight and a higher level of care. Findings included: Record review of the CMS PBJ reports indicated: Quarter 1 2023 (October 01, 2023, through December 31, 2023) there were no RN hours on 10/07/23 (Saturday), 11/11/23 (Saturday), 11/12/23 (Sunday), 11/25/23 (Saturday), 12/03/23 (Sunday), 12/16/23 (Saturday), and 12/17/23 (Sunday). During an interview on 10/14/24 at 2:27 p.m., the Corporate Nurse said PBJ reports were submitted by the facility's corporate office. She said the facility did not have RN coverage for 10/07/23, 11/11/23, 11/12/23, 11/25/23, 12/03/23, 12/16/23, and 12/17/23. She said the possible negative outcome of not having an RN working 8 hours a day 7 days a week was the facility not having a supervisor present in the facility to oversee resident care. During an interview on 10/16/24 at 8:52 a.m., the DON said she could not provide any documentation of RN coverage for 10/07/23, 11/11/23, 11/12/23, 11/25/23, 12/03/23, 12/16/23, and 12/17/23. She said she was not working on those days because she was out on approved leave. During an interview on 10/16/24 at 9:15 a.m. the Administrator said there was not 8 hours of RN coverage for the days noted on the PBJ report. He said the facility had a difficult time hiring RNs due to being a rural area. He said the facility had contracted with a telehealth company that provided 24-hour RN consultation, and his Corporate Nurse (RN) was always available by phone. He said from October 2023 through December 2023 the facility was using agency RNs to provide the needed 8 hours of coverage, but they often did not show up for work. He said there was no possible negative outcome of not providing 8 consecutive hours of RN coverage daily because the nurses always had the Corporate Nurse and the telehealth RNs available. Record review of facility policy titled Departmental Supervision, Nursing, revised August 2022, indicated, . A registered nurse provides services at least eight (8) consecutive hours every 24 hours, seven (7) days a week. RNs may be scheduled more than eight (8) hours depending on the acuity needs of the resident.

The facility failed to monitor Resident #39 for behaviors and side effects of the antipsychotic (class of drugs that treat symptoms of psychosis and other mental health disorders) medication Seroquel. The facility did not have an appropriate indication for Resident #55's Ativan (antianxiety medication) and did not discontinue after 14 days or have the attending physician or prescribing practitioner's rationale in the resident's medical record and indicate the duration for the PRN order. The facility did not discontinue Resident #61's Ativan after 14 days or have the attending physician or prescribing practitioner's rationale in the resident's medical record and indicate the duration for the PRN order. These failures could place residents at risk for adverse consequences such as dizziness, drowsiness, oversedation, agitation, restlessness, and suicidal thoughts related to the use of psychotropic medications. Findings included: 1. Record review of a face sheet dated 10/15/24 indicated Resident #39 was a [AGE] year-old female admitted on [DATE] with diagnoses included psychosis (a mental disorder characterized by a disconnection from reality) and anxiety (a mental disorder characterized by feelings of worry or fear that are strong enough to interfere with one's daily activities).
