(Resident #32) The facility failed to promote self-determination for Resident #32 by not allowing her to make healthcare decisions for herself when on 06/16/2024, LVN M, who was an agency nurse, refused to call an ambulance for Resident #32 because she felt Resident #32 was medically stable at the facility. This failure could place residents at risk for decreased quality of life, decreased self-esteem and increase anxiety. Findings included: Record review of an undated face sheet reflected Resident #32 was a [AGE] year-old female admitted to the facility on [DATE] with the diagnoses of PVD (peripheral vascular disease- poor circulation), sepsis (severe infection), and diabetes mellitus type II. She was discharged [DATE]. Record review of Resident #32's 5-day MDS assessment dated [DATE] indicated she had a BIMS of 15 which reflected Resident #15 had no cognitive impairment and required substantial to maximum assistance for toileting, transfer, and hygiene. The MDS indicated Resident #32 received dialysis during her stay. No behaviors were noted on the MDS. Record review of Resident #32's EHR revealed no care plans for behaviors. During an interview on 08/14/2024 at 10:00 a.m., Resident #32 stated that her only issue when she was a resident was, she was not allowed to go the hospital when she requested on 06/16/2024. She stated she called her sister one evening stating she was not feeling right. She stated after speaking with her sister she was going to ask the nurse to call an ambulance and go to the ER to be checked out. The resident stated she could feel herself becoming more confused and caught herself having a hallucination of a snake coming out of the wall. She stated being on dialysis she knew this meant something in her body chemistry was not right. She stated the nurse came down to her room and checked her vital signs and told her there was nothing wrong with her and she would not be calling an ambulance because it would be against medical advice for her to leave when nothing was wrong with her. Resident #32 stated she told LVN M that she had the right to go to the hospital. She stated LVN M told her that she (LVN M) understood that, but she (LVN M) would not be calling the ambulance. She stated her family member called the nurse and the nurse hung up on Resident #32's family several times.

The MDS indicated Resident #10 had a fall with injury since the last assessment. Record review of the care plan dated 05/30/2024 for Resident #10 titled Fall Risk had the intervention for the resident to maintain safety over next 90 days and have frequent checks. No interventions for Resident #10 to have a fall mat or pommel cushion were listed on the care plan. Record review of the incident report dated 04/24/2024 indicated Resident #10 had a fall with a closed head injury. Interventions listed were fall mat at bedside and pommel cushion in chair. During an observation on 08/14/2024 at 2:25 p.m., Resident #10 had a fall mat beside his bed and a pommel cushion in his wheelchair. During an interview on 08/14/2024 at 2:30 p.m., the MDS Coordinator stated interventions for falls and any injury related from the fall should be updated on the care plan as the falls happen. She stated the falls were reviewed in the clinical stand up meeting each morning and the care plans are to be updated with interventions as they are discussed in the meeting. The MDS Coordinator stated she was unaware why all the interventions were not listed on Resident #10's care plan. She stated it was important to have all interventions listed because the care plan was the blueprint of the specific resident's care instruction. She stated Resident #10 had to have the fall mat and pommel cushion because he was impulsive and would attempt to transfer himself unsafely. During an interview on 08/15/2024 at 2:20 p.m., the DON stated that all care plans should be reviewed and revised quarterly, but acute items such as behaviors and falls should be updated with intervention as they happen and are discussed in morning meeting. She stated it was important for all staff to be able to quickly access the care plan and know the up-to-date interventions in place for the residents. She stated this information was critical to assist with prevention of further behavioral issues and falls with injury. During an interview on 08/15/2024 at 3:30 p.m., the ADM stated it was the responsibility of nurse management, mainly the DON to follow up and ensure the care plans were being updated both quarterly and acutely. She stated not having up to date care plans could result in staff not knowing how to treat different situations with different residents.

She stated she had to sleep on her loveseat because that was the only surface, she could transfer to being a double amputee. She stated she had no idea what medication changes had been made or when the medications should have been taken because she got no education or instruction on her medication. Resident #32 stated she returned to the hospital on [DATE] and no home health or DME arrived prior to her admission to the hospital. She stated she was admitted to the hospital for hypokalemia (low potassium) related to her dialysis. She stated her family was able to take her to and from dialysis. During an interview on 08/14/2024 at 10:30 p.m., Resident #32's family member stated they were able to take the resident to and from dialysis and they were able to adminster all her medications to her. Resident #32's family member stated the only medication that changed for her while in the nursing home was the MD added a multivitamin with iron. He stated no other changes were made in her medications. He said the resident did not have an order for Potassium and she did not receive Potassium at the facility.

F 0660 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Few called the home health or DME company to inform them Resident #32 had gone home early. She stated not having home health or DME at home could cause a decreased quality of life or injury. During an interview on 08/15/2024 at 2:15 p.m., the DON stated she remembered Resident #32 discharging early. She stated Resident #32 had cancer and wanted to seek treatment for the cancer and because she wanted to go to the oncologist and that interfered with her insurance she decided to discharge early. The DON stated Resident #32 was not ready to go home without support. The DON stated Resident #32's family member could help her with most tasks but not all of them. The DON stated Resident #32 needed the hospital bed, the mechanical lift and the bedside commode. The DON stated since failure to ensure discharge plans were carried out for Resident #32, the discharge process had been revamped to avoid missing important information such as that. She stated it was the social service department that was responsible for all aspects of discharge planning before. She stated now there are 5-6 people responsible for different parts of the discharge process and it was working much better. During an interview on 08/15/2024 at 3:00 p.m., the ADM stated she recalled Resident #32 leaving the facility earlier than expected. She stated she was unaware Resident #32 had not received her medication instructions or any of her DME. She stated not having the DME needed when you discharge can lead to accidents such as falls. She stated not knowing how to take you medications correctly could lead to hospitalizations. She stated at the time it would have been the SSD's sole responsibility to ensure all those things were completed. She stated now there were 5 people involved in the discharge process and it had helped keep everyone safe and happy. Record review of the facility discharge /Transfer Policy dated December 2018 reflected a facility must establish, maintain and implement identical policies and practices regarding transfer and discharge provision of services for all individuals regardless of payor source. The provisions included home health and durable medical equipment needed for a safe living environment post discharge.

She stated he was hard to redirect about 50% of the time. She stated she learned to redirect him with food and sitting in the dining room and that worked most of the time.

She stated he had gotten outside once before but the staff saw him before the door even closed behind him and redirected him back into the facility.
