During an interview on 6/26/24 at 2:45 PM, the ADM said the MDS nurses were responsible for ensuring
the MDS assessments were accurate. She said the MDS assessment should paint an accurate picture to
the state on what level of care they were providing to the residents. The ADM said she would expect the
MDS assessments to be accurate and paint a picture of the resident.
Requested a policy on Accuracy of Assessments on 6/26/24 at 1:30 PM from the ADM and was provided
policies on Electronic Transmission of MDS, MDS Completion and Submission Timeframes, and MDS Error
Correction. These policies did not address accuracy of assessments.

Develop and implement a complete care plan that meets all the resident's needs, with timetables and
actions that can be measured.
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
observation, interview, and record review the facility failed to develop, and implement a comprehensive care
plan to meet the medical, nursing, mental and psychosocial needs for 1 of 22 residents (Resident #1)
reviewed for care plans.
The facility failed to implement a comprehensive person-centered care plan for Resident #1's diagnosis of
Chronic combined systolic and diastolic congestive Heart Failure (heart does not pump blood adequately
causing cough, shortness of breath, difficulty breathing, swelling, chest pain, weight gain, tiredness, and
weakness).
This failure could place residents in the facility at an increased risk of a decline in physical or functional
well-being, of not receiving necessary care or services, and having personalized plans developed to
address their needs.
Findings included:
1. Record review of Resident #1's face sheet dated 6/25/24 revealed she was [AGE] years old and admitted
to the facility initially on 4/25/16 and re-admitted on [DATE]. Resident #1 had diagnoses of hypokalemia
(low potassium), hypertension (high blood pressure), chronic combined systolic and diastolic heart failure.
Record review of Resident #1's annual MDS assessment dated [DATE] revealed she had a BIMS of 10,
which indicated she had moderate cognitive. The MDS indicated Resident #1 required total to maximum
assistance for most ADLs. The MDS indicated Resident #1 had diagnoses of heart failure and
hypertension. The MDS indicated Resident #1 had shortness of breath when lying flat. The MDS did not
indicate Resident #1 was receiving a diuretic medication (used to pull extra fluid from body with increased
urination).
Record review of Resident #1's Physician Orders dated June 2024 revealed the following orders:
* Torsemide 20 mg by mouth daily as needed, hold for blood pressure less than 100/60 or heart rate less
than 60 for chronic combined systolic and diastolic heart failure with a start date of 3/1/24
*Torsemide 20 mg by mouth daily, hold for blood pressure less than 100/60 or heart rate less than 60 for
chronic combined systolic and diastolic heart failure with a start date of 3/1/24.
Record review of Resident #1's care plan dated 6/26/24 revealed she had hypertension and took a diuretic,
but the care plan did not indicate Resident #1 had heart failure.
Record review of Resident #1's Departmental Notes dated 6/11/24 indicated resident had a chest x-ray and
new orders were to add torsemide 20 mg at 3:00 PM times five days in addition to the 20 mg every morning
she was already taking. On 6/20/24, Resident #1 continued to have loose congestion and new orders
received to increase Torsemide to twice daily for three days.
During an observation and interview on 6/24/24 at 11:07 AM, Resident #1 was lying in bed. Resident #1
said the staff took good care of her and she did not have any concerns with her care. Resident#1

During an interview on 6/26/24 at 2:07 PM, the ADON said he was responsible for ensuring the care plans
were accurate and included everything needed after the assessments were complete and updated the care
plans as needed. The ADON said the purpose of the care plan was to guide the resident's care. The ADON
said things such as wounds, risks dehydration, code status, hospice, weight loss, things that could affect
disease processes, and congestive heart failure to monitor for edema (swelling) should be included in the
resident's care plan. The ADON said if he caught that congestive heart failure was not on care plan during
his review, he would add it. The ADON said congestive heart failure was not on Resident #1's care plan and
it should have been included. The ADON said if the resident did not have a care plan for congestive heart
failure, the resident could go into fluid overload, have respiratory issues, and could lead to death. The
ADON said by not having a care plan for an active disease process, it could lead to an exacerbation of the
disease process and be detrimental to the resident.
Residents Affected - Few
During an interview on 6/26/24 at 2:16 PM, the DON she said the interdisciplinary team consisting of the
Social Worker, DON, ADON, Activities Directory, Dietary Manager, and MDS Coordinators were all part of
the care planning process. The DON said mostly the ADON was responsible for ensuring the care plans
included all pertinent information. The DON said the purpose of the care plan was so staff would know how
to take care of the resident and to individualize the resident's care. The DON said congestive heart failure
was a diagnosis that should be included in the care plan if the resident was taking a medication for it. The
DON said if the care plan did not have all pertinent information, then staff that did not know the resident,
would not know how to take care of them.
During an interview on 6/26/24 at 2:45 PM, the ADM said the purpose of the care plan was to give a clear
picture of the resident and how the staff was to best care for the resident. The ADM said the staff may not
know how to address the resident's care if there was not a care plan. The ADM said she would expect the
care plans to include pertinent resident information such as CHF.
Record review of the facility's policy dated revised March of 2022 and titled Care Plans, Comprehensive
Person-Centered, revealed . a comprehensive, person-centered care plan that included measurable
objectives and timetables to meet the resident's physical, psychosocial and functional needs were
developed and implemented for each resident . comprehensive, person-centered care plan would . describe
the services that were to be furnished to attain or maintain the resident's highest practicable physical,
mental, and psychosocial well-being . reflected currently recognized standards of practice for problem area
and conditions . care plan interventions were chosen only after careful data gathering, proper sequencing
of events, careful consideration of the relationship between the resident's problem areas and their causes,
and relevant clinical decision making . assessments of residents were ongoing and care plans were revised
as information about the residents and the resident's conditions change .

Provide appropriate care for residents who are continent or incontinent of bowel/bladder, appropriate
catheter care, and appropriate care to prevent urinary tract infections.
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
observation, interview, and record review, the facility failed to ensure that a resident received appropriate
treatment and services to prevent urinary tract infections (UTI) for 1 of 7 residents who were reviewed for
quality of care. (Resident #77)
1. The facility failed to ensure Resident #77 had orders for the size and amount of fluid in the bulb of her
indwelling urinary catheter (tube inserted into the bladder to drain urine).
2. The facility failed to ensure Resident# 77 had proper catheter care with an indwelling urinary catheter.
The failures could place residents at risk for indwelling urinary catheter pain, urinary tract infections, and
not receiving needed care.
Findings included:
1. Record review of Resident #77's face sheet dated 6/24/24 indicated Resident #77 was a [AGE] year old
female and admitted to the facility initially on 4/17/24 and re-admitted on [DATE] with diagnoses including
Unspecified dementia (progressive or persistent loss of intellectual functioning with impairment or memory
and thinking and often with personality changes), UTI (urinary tract infection) site not specified, other acute
kidney failure (a condition in which the kidneys suddenly can't filter waste from the blood), and urine
retention.
Record review of Resident #77's quarterly MDS assessment dated [DATE] indicated Resident #77 was
usually understood and understood others. The MDS indicated Resident #77 had a BIMS score of 13 which
indicated her cognition was intact. Resident #77 was maximal assistance on staff for toileting hygiene. The
MDS indicated Resident #77 had an indwelling catheter (urinary catheter) and was always continent of
bowel.
Record review of Resident #77's care plan dated 4/18/2024 indicated she had a diagnosis of retention of
urine and a failed removal of urinary catheter on 5/28/24. She had a current UTI. She was on enhanced
barrier precautions with interventions of gloves and gown should be donned (put on) if any of the following
activities occurred: linen change, resident hygiene, transfer, dressing, toileting/incontinent care, bathing, or
other high contact activity.
Record review of Resident #77's Order Summary Report dated 5/09/24 revealed an order to check the
Foley catheter two times daily for correct placement, leaking and anchored to the skin. Staff should ensure
her catheter bag is placed in a dignity bag when out of room. Resident #77's orders revealed there was no
order noted related to Resident #77's urinary Foley catheter size and amount of fluid in the bulb.
During an interview on 6/25/24 at 10:15 AM, the DON was notified Resident #77's urinary catheter size and
bulb orders were not noted in her chart. The DON said she would find the orders.
During an interview on 6/25/24 at 2:30 PM the DON stated Resident #77's urinary catheter size and bulb
orders were not in the resident's chart.

During an observation and interview on 6/26/24 at 8:02 AM, revealed CNA D performed and CNA E
assisted with incontinent/catheter care for Resident #77. CNA D washed her hands and applied gloves
before she started incontinent care. CNA D cleaned Resident #77's crease between her right leg and groin
area, then CNA D changed towels and proceed to clean her left leg and groin area. CNA D changed the
towel and proceeded to clean the catheter tubing away from her but did not clean her meatus (a passage or
opening leading to the interior of the body). CNA D did not clean Resident #77's mons pubis (the rounded
mass of fatty tissue lying over the joint of the pubic bones). CNA D then provided perineal care to Resident
#77's buttocks. CNA D was wearing the same gloves and removed a dirty incontinent pad and applied a
clean incontinent pad. CNA D did not change her gloves and put the covers over Resident #77,then
removed her gloves and washed her hands.
During an interview on 6/26/24 at 8:32 AM, CNA E said she was 95% sure that CNA D missed a step while
performing catheter care. CNA E said after washing the front peri area of the body CNA D was supposed to
sanitize her hands then apply new gloves, then perform incontinent care to the backside of resident. CNA E
said she would have cleaned the middle of the vagina and catheter first then clean the sides of the groin
areas. CNA E said CNA D did not clean Resident #77's meatus. CNA E said the importance of catheter
care was to keep the peri area clean and keep the catheter in place. CNA E said bad catheter care could
cause infections. CNA E said when going from dirty to clean staff were supposed to change their gloves to
prevent cross contamination.
During an interview on 6/26/24 at 8:42 AM, CNA D said she felt like she did horrible with Resident #77's
catheter care. CNA D said she felt like her clean hand got in the way. CNA D said she should have changed
her gloves after peri care and catheter care. CNA D said the importance of catheter care was cleanliness
and to keep the catheter intact. CNA D said bad catheter care could cause infections and not changing
gloves during catheter care can cause cross contamination.
During an interview on 6/26/24 at 10:23 AM, LVN F said CNAs should be going from the inside area to the
outside areas with soap and water, unless the outer areas were soiled. LVN F said during catheter care
cleaning they should be removing dirty gloves, sanitizing hands and changing gloves when they went from
one part of the body to the other, to prevent cross contamination. LVN F said bad catheter care can cause a
urinary tract infection with the elderly.
During an interview and record on 6/26/24 at 11:11 AM, CNA G provided CNA D's skills check offs. CNA G
said when she trained the CNAs she trained them on a dummy first. CNA G said CNAs should start
catheter care with the top of the catheter and clean down. She said after she cleaned the tubing, removed
dirty gloves, hands should be washed and clean gloves should be applied, then proceed to clean the peri
area. She said after the peri area was cleaned, then clean across the top of the pubic area, then pat dry.
She said after the front side was cleaned, then turn the resident over to proceed to clean the back area.

catheter care she would roll her dirty pad, then change her gloves and sanitize my her hands, then apply
clean gloves. She said she would have applied a clean incontinent pad under the resident, then the other
person assisting with catheter care should remove the dirty pad. She said after the dirty pad was removed
she would pull out the other side of the pad from underneath the resident. CNA G said improper catheter
care could cause an UTI (urinary tract infection) or other infections.
Record review of CNA D's skills check off dated 2/28/24 revealed CNA D passed and was very nervous,
but she would be rechecked on her skills later. CNA D skills recheck off dated 4/1/24 revealed CNA D did
very good, but she second guessed herself.

During an interview on 6/26/24 at 2:12 PM, LVN F said before applying a catheter or replacing a catheter
there should always be a physician or a nurse practitioner order reviewed. LVN F said the orders were
typically on the MAR. LVN F said the charge nurses put in phone orders and the nurse that did the
resident's admission usually put in their orders. LVN F said the way the nurses knew when orders were due
was the orders came up on the MAR to inform them. LVN F said she typically read the orders of the
resident and verified the orders before she changed a catheter.
During an interview on 6/26/24 at 2:19 PM, the ADON said there should be orders for a catheter and
catheter care on the resident's chart. The ADON said the orders should list the size and the amount of fluid
should be placed in the bulb and the frequency the catheter should be changed. The ADON said the
admitting nurses should put in the resident's orders, but any nurse can put in orders. The DON and ADON
check the orders after the nurses. The ADON said he except the CNA to perform catheter care and go from
clean to dirty. He said the CNAs should be washing their hands and changing their gloves in between
steps. The ADON said the risk of not performing hand hygiene during catheter care could result in an
infection.
During an interview on 6/26/24 at 2:29 PM, the DON said there should be an order for an indwelling
catheter. She said the order should had the size of the catheter, the amount of fluid in the bulb and when to
change the catheter. The DON said the treatment nurse or the admitting nurse usually put the resident's
orders in. The DON said the order fell through, because Resident #77's orders were discontinued when she
was discharged to the hospital and the admitting nurse forgot to put the orders back in. The DON said
during catheter care the CNAs were supposed to go from clean to dirty and change their gloves
periodically. The DON said proper catheter care prevented infections.
During an interview on 6/26/24 at 2:37 PM, the ADM said there should be an order for an indwelling
catheter. The ADM said when applying a catheter, the nurse should be following the doctors' orders. The
ADM said she expected the CNAs to use the correct PPE and follow the standard precautions guidelines,
with incontinent care and catheter care. The ADM said staff members should be trying to prevent cross
contamination and infections throughout the facility.
Review of a Catheter Care, Urinary Policy dated revised August 2022 revealed .the purpose of this
procedure is to prevent urinary catheter-associated complications, including urinary tract infections. Follow
aseptic technique when inserting a urinary catheter. Use aseptic technique when handling or manipulating
the drainage system. Routine perineal hygiene: With non-dominant hand separate the labia of the female
resident. Maintain the position of this hand throughout the procedure. Assess the urethral meatus. For a
female resident: Use a washcloth with warm water and soap (or clean bathing wipe) to cleanse the labia.
Use one area of the washcloth (or wipe) for each downward, cleansing stroke. Change the position of the
washcloth (or wipe) and cleanse around the urethral meatus. Do not allow the washcloth/wipe to drag on
the resident's skin or linen. With a clean washcloth (or wipe), rinse using the above technique. Discard
disposable items into designated containers. Remove gloves and discard into designated container. Wash
and dry your hand thoroughly. Reposition the bed covers. Make the resident comfortable.
Review of Physician Services Policy dated revised February 2021 revealed .The medical care of each
resident is supervised by a licensed physician. Once a resident is admitted , orders for the resident's
immediate care and needs can be provided by a physician, physician assistant (PA), nurse practitioner
(NP), or clinical nurse specialist (CNS).

prior to initiating or instead of continuing psychotropic medication; and PRN orders for psychotropic
medications are only used when the medication is necessary and PRN use is limited.
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
interview and record review, the facility failed to ensure PRN orders for psychotropic drugs are limited to 14
days unless the attending physician or prescribing practitioner believes that it is appropriate for the PRN
order to be extended beyond 14 days, he or she should document their rationale in the resident's medical
record and indicate the duration for the PRN order for 2 of 7 residents (Resident #58 and Resident #73)
reviewed for unnecessary medications.
The facility failed to ensure Resident #58 and Resident #73 had a stop date or duration for PRN Lorazepam
(a medication used to treat anxiety).
These failures could put residents at risk of possible psychotropic medication side effects, adverse
consequences, decreased quality of life, and dependence on unnecessary medications.

C (an infection caused by a virus that attacks the liver and leads to inflammation), depression (a mental
health disorder characterized by persistently depressed mood or loss of interest in activities, causing
significant impairment in daily life), and Parkinson's disease (a disorder of the central nervous system that
affects movement).
Record review of Resident #58's quarterly MDS assessment, dated 05/09/24, indicated she was usually
able to make herself understood and she usually understood others. She had a BIMS score of 7, which
indicated severe cognitive impairment. The assessment further indicated Resident #58 did not receive any
antipsychotics during her 7-day assessment window.
Record review of Resident #58's Physician's orders, printed on 06/26/24, indicated the following orders:
*Lorazepam intensol 0.5mg by mouth every four hours as needed for anxiety. The start date was 02/09/24.

Resident #73 revealed the consulting pharmacist had sent a note to the physician indicating . the resident
was receiving the following psychotropic medication on a PRN basis: lorazepam 0.5 mg every four hours
PRN . Per regulatory guidelines, the duration of treatment with such medications or a PRN basis should be
limited to 14 days, however, a new order may be written to extend the duration beyond 14 days if the
prescriber believed it was appropriate . Please evaluate the continued need for this medication . If it was to

was an appropriate rationale for continuing the PRN lorazepam orders indefinitely. She said the regulation
said that all psychotropics that were PRN should have a 14 day stop date. She said she did not think there
was a negative effect to the resident for not having a stop date. She said the bedside nurse was responsible
for ensuring that all prn psychotropics had stop dates. She said the ADON, DON, and medical records
personnel were also responsible for ensuring that PRN psychotropics have a stop date.
During an interview on 06/26/24 at 11:55AM, the Administrator said she was unsure if there should have
been a stop date for PRN psychotropics. She said she was unsure of any negative effect to the
