Honor the resident's right to a dignified existence, self-determination, communication, and to exercise his or
her rights.
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
interview, observation, and record review, the facility failed to honor the rights of the resident to
self-determination and to make decisions about their care for 1 of 6 residents (Resident #25) reviewed for
resident rights.
The facility failed to accommodate Resident #25's right to refuse her therapeutic diet.
This failure could place residents at psychosocial and emotional risk by not having their rights upheld.
Findings included:
Record review of Resident #25's face sheet revealed a [AGE] year-old female admitted to the facility on
[DATE]. Her relevant diagnoses included Parkinson's disease (a brain disorder that causes unintended or
uncontrollable movements, such as shaking, stiffness, and difficulty with balance and coordination),
contracture of muscles (permanent tightening of muscles).
Record review of MDS revealed Resident #25 with BIMS of 14 reflecting that Resident #25 has sufficient
judgement, planning, and organization to make her own decisions.
Record review of Speech Language Therapy Evaluation and Plan of Care dated 4/26/23 revealed that
Resident #25 was assessed for swallowing ability and was recommended a pureed diet (food blended to
smooth, pudding-like consistency) with thin liquids due to with inability to fully clear mouth of leftover food
after chewing and swallowing because of lingual weakness (weakness / difficulty moving the tongue).
Record review of Resident #25's progress note dated 4/26/23 revealed that staff observed Resident #25
being fed onion rings and a hamburger by a relative. Per note, relative was told that Resident #25 would
continue to receive a pureed diet until the diet order is changed by the physician.
Record review of Resident #25's care plan nutritional status dated 5/1/23 revealed that Resident #25 was
ordered a pureed diet and the goal was for resident to maintain weight. This section of the care also stated
that the resident is noncompliant with MD prescribed diet (pureed) and that family and resident were
educated of the risks of consuming otherwise (regular textures). No interventions, resolutions, or
accommodations were identified in the care plan to address Resident #25's wishes for a non-pureed diet.

Record review of DON progress note dated 5/1/23 revealed that the DON educated Resident #25 and RP
concerning failed swallow study emphasizing that it is unsafe for Resident #25 to consume regular textures
after RP had fast food delivered to Resident #25. Per note, the RP verbalized that she would take risk of
resident having whatever she wants to eat. Per note, RP stated that she was willing to sign a form to state
that she and Resident #25 assume the risk of the resident eating what she wants. Per note, the DON
educated the RP that the facility does not have a form/waiver to address that concern.
Record review of the NP Progress dated 5/2/23 revealed that Resident #25 reported to NP that she was
being provided a pureed diet and did not want it. NP note stated that Resident #25 is non-compliant with
recommended diet and is not willing to be. NP documented that she explained to Resident #25 that the risk
of a regular diet overweighs the benefit. Resident #25 confirmed understanding but still wishes to be on a
regular diet.
Record review of Resident #25's meal ticket dated 5/11/23 revealed that resident has an active order for
and continues to receive Pureed diet.
Record review of Resident Rights Under Federal Law: Attachment F (revised 2/22/22) revealed the
following:
1. The Resident has a right to a dignified existence, self-determination .
5. The Resident has the right to refuse treatment .
9. The Resident has a right to participate in planning of his or her care and treatment or changes in care
and treatment unless adjudged incompetent or otherwise .

only a bottle of Vanilla Ensure Enlive .
In an interview on 5/9/23 at 12:30pm, Resident #25 stated that she supplements her diet with Ensure
because she will not eat the pureed foods that she is being provided by the facility. Resident #25 said that
she had a swallow test about two weeks ago and was ordered a pureed diet which she refuses to eat
unless it is a food that's soft in its normal form (i.e. mashed potatoes, pudding). She said that she has
expressed to doctor (NP), the nurse manager (DON), and anyone who will listen that she refuses to eat the
pureed diet and would even sign something to say that she assumes the risks. She stated that the facility
has made no accommodation for her in the 2 weeks she has been admitted and her family brings food and
sometimes has food delivered that she can eat. Resident #25 stated that the situation is upsetting and that
she would rather starve than eat the pureed meals provided to her .
In an interview on 5/10/23 at 9:50am, the Administrator and DON both agreed that the resident has the
right to refuse the pureed diet. The DON stated that the facility is honoring Resident #25's rights by not
interfering with food brought from outside the facility. She said the facility only offers resident pureed items.
The DON said that corporate does not offer a waiver for Resident #25 to decline pureed diet and accept
risks of having a diet upgrade. The DON stated that Resident #25 failed a swallow test and for that reason,
they must follow the physician order for the pureed diet. The DON stated that failure to honor the resident's
rights could negatively impact the resident emotionally .

In an interview on 5/10/23 at 10:15am, LVN C stated that all residents have the right to accept or refuse
care.
In an interview on 5/10/23 at 11am, Resident #25's NP stated that she is aware of Resident #25's request
for a diet upgrade despite failed swallow test. She stated that she would be comfortable upgrading
resident's diet if there was a waiver and plan in place that would allow for the resident and her RP to sign
off stating they understand and accept the risks of upgrading resident's diet. She said that the problem is
that the facility has no such waiver available.
In an interview on 5/10/23 at 11:05am, the Social Worker acknowledged that the resident has the right to
refuse a therapeutic diet even if prescribed for safety. She stated that she does not have a definite answer
as to how the resident's rights will be honored as this issue has never come up at the facility in the 11 years
she has been there. The SW acknowledged that not upholding resident's rights can have negative
emotional impact because the facility is their home where their choices should be respected.

Level of Harm - Minimal harm
or potential for actual harm
In an interview with Resident #5 on 05/09/23 at 12:23 PM, he stated his main concern was that his skin on
his inner thigh and top of his foot felt very itchy.
Residents Affected - Few
In an interview with the Wound Care Nurse, on 05/11/2023 at 1:55PM, she stated she knew the resident
has had complications with itchy skin and flare-ups for a while and had PRN creams to help with the itch
but she was not recently notified about any new skin issues that Resident #5 had. She stated the nurse
aides have to do skin assessment/shower sheet and report any new concern to her and the nurse aides
have not been doing them or else it would have been reported to her.
Record review of Resident #5's shower sheets revealed the last shower sheet documented was from
05/08/2023 with no noted skin issues on his feet.
Observations and interview with LVN K on 05/11/2023 at 2:00PM, he stated he was not made aware of any
new skin concerns for Resident #5 recently. Surveyor requested to observe Resident #5's skin while
resident was dressed and lying in a Geri chair. Resident #5 was seen grimacing saying I don't want-repeatedly as LVN pulled the resident's sock off. The resident's skin appeared bright reddish pink and LVN
K saw his skin on left foot and stated, that's definitely open. Resident #5 was then observed being taken
back to his room by LVN K and the Wound Care Nurse for a skin assessment.
Record review of Resident #5's skin assessment dated [DATE] at 2:57PM revealed resident was assessed
to have a skin tear/laceration and was ordered new wound treatment.
In an interview with CNA F on 05/11/23 at 02:23 PM, CNA F reported Resident #5 was given a bed bath
this morning after being soiled and she forgot to write it on a shower sheet that he had a sore on his right
foot, it was not bleeding but it was very open. She stated she put his personal Vaseline over it and put his
socks on. She stated that was the first time she had seen the wound and she would usually call a nurse to
notify them then and there, but she did not notify the nurse because it slipped her mind. She stated the risk
of not reporting and addressing open wounds is possible infection.
In an interview with the DON on 05/11/2023 at 2:37PM she stated CNA F should have reported the skin
change to the charge nurse who would have followed up by looking at the resident's skin or sending wound
care to assess and coordinate appropriate treatment with the doctor to ensure treatment is appropriate.
She stated the risks of not having resident's skin concerns reported is that the resident's skin would remain
not intact and could potentially get worse.
