Record review of policy undated and titled, Call Light Use and Patient Safety. Nursing home residents often
require ongoing care to maintain their health. Throughout the day, they may need assistance from nursing
staff to stand up, engage in daily activities, or handle medical emergencies. As such, each patient must
have a call light system to notify nursing staff if they need help . Placement: Nurse call systems must be
accessible within resident rooms. Generally, a call system is required beside the bed and in bathing or toilet
facilities. Common areas should also allow access to nurse call systems. The purpose of a call light system
is to enable residents to ask for assistance, so they must be placed in all locations where resident may be
present. Accessibility: Call lights must also be accessible to all residents, including those with disabilities. If
they are placed out of reach on a wall, some patients may be unable to call for help. For patients with
limited mobility, a call system must be within reach of their bed and other locations. The nursing home is
responsible for setting up each resident's call system to meet their needs . consequences of Call light
Neglect: Neglecting call lights can have a devastating impact on a nursing home resident. Whether it means
the resident has to wait a long time to be moved or a medical emergency escalates, it is crucial that a staff
member can respond to the alert as soon as possible.
Record review of policy dated February 2017 and revised date December 2023 titled Statement of Resident
Rights revealed, Compliance Guidance: The community should educate, encourage, and honor the rights of
those we serve . 1. To all care necessary for them to have the highest possible level of health. 2. To safe,
decent, and clean conditions . 4. To be treated with courtesy, consideration, and respect.

bed. Resident #8 was sleeping during observations and was unable to be interviewed regarding fall mats.
Interview with CNA G on 1/16/2025 at 11:34am, she stated that Resident #8 had only one fall mat that she
was aware of.
Residents Affected - Few
Interview with RN H on 1/16/2025 at 4:11pm, they said that Resident #8's mat had food spillage on it so the
aide took the mat away to be cleaned and it was being air dried and not in his room. He said that the fall
mat's purpose was to prevent significant injury and that RN H believed Resident #8's care plan needed to
be updated since the fall mat was added when Resident #8 used to be mobile but since he was on Hospice
he had a reduction in mobility and being more in bed meant he was not at risk of falls as much.
During an interview with the DON on 1/16/25 at 3:02 PM, she said that Care plans tell us what care to
perform for residents. The regular care plan is done by the MDS nurses, and the acute care plan is done by
residents' nurses for things like antibiotics. She said that Care plan updates are a team effort, in the
mornings they talk about resident care, go over orders from the previous day either for acute or long-term
care plans and meetings include the 2 ADONs, 2 MDS nurses and a nurse.
During an interview on 1/16/25 at 3:02 PM with the Administrator, she said Care plans were used to match
resident needs, they had care plan clinical meetings, they discuss expectations and update the care plans.
Record review of the facility policy and procedure entitled Care Plans, dated revised January 2023 read in
part . The community develops a comprehensive care plan for each resident that includes measurable
objectives to meet a resident's medical, nursing, mental, and psychosocial needs that are identified in the
comprehensive assessment. The care plan should be reflective of the identified problem or risk, a
measurable outcome objective and appropriate intervention/interventions in relation to the identified
problem or risk, outcome objective, and the resident's ability, needs, medical condition, preventative
measures. The care plan may also include the expressed preferences. The care plan in conjunction with the
plan of care throughout the medical record is developed and or recommended to attain or maintain the
resident's highest practicable physical, mental, and psychosocial well-being . The care plan should be
initiated upon admission, continued to be developed during the initial 48-72 hrs., throughout the completion
of the admission comprehensive assessment. The care plan should be updated and reviewed at least
quarterly thereafter, then annually and with significant changes in conditions as defined in the RAI manual.
Additional updates to the care plan may be done as indicated.

have been on the care-plan, but that she talked with the doctor and they put in a new order for oxygen as
needed since her oxygen saturation levels have been stable. The DON discontinued the order after
surveyor intervention. The DON said she heard the aide wheeled Resident #50 out of bed but did not place
the oxygen on the resident and that she would investigate further. She also said the oxygen was on the
resident's [NAME] (a shortened version of a resident's care plan that aides can acccess on the electronic
medical records) so the aide should have known Resident #50 needed oxygen. Later interview with the
DON on 1/16/2025 at 4:11pm, she said that Resident #55's aide told the DON and she took Resident #55's
oxygen off to get her changed to head outside her room and forgot to put it back on. The DON was

Observation of medication pass on 01/14/2025 at 10:00AM with Medication Aide E revealed she
administered the medication gabapentin 300mg 1 capsule and furosemide 20mg 1 tablet by mouth to
Resident #31.
Interview on 01/15/25 at 3:57 PM with the DON said scheduled medications can be administered an hour
before or an hour after its scheduled time. The DON said if this was not done, it was considered a
medication error. The DON said the physician or NP should be notified to see if the physician needed to
make any changes to the resident's medication. The DON said if the medication aide made an error, the
medication aide needs to notify the nurse so that the nurse could call the physician. The DON said this was
the NF protocol. The DON said the NF would also have to complete a medication error report. The DON
said when a resident's medication is not given as scheduled it could cause the medication to not be as
effective. The DON was asked for the NF policies on medication administration, the NF drug pass times
regarding BID, TID, etc.
Interview on 1/16/25 at 7:53AM with Medication Aide E said she was aware of the NF medication times and
that she could administer the medication 1 hour early or 1 hour after the scheduled time. She said the
reason she was late administering Resident #31's medications gabapentin and furosemide were due to her
being on another hall and got behind. She said it was important to administer the medication at the
appointed time to ensure that physician orders were being followed and the effectiveness of the medication.
Medication Aide E said she did not notify the nurse of Resident #31's medication furosemide and
gabapentin being administered late and the more she thought about it, she should have notified the nurse.
Record review of a medication error form for Resident #31 dated 01/15/25 reflected that the NF had
assessed resident with no adverse reactions identified and the NP was notified. Further review reflected
that the NF had in-served Medication Aide E to inform the charge nurse when a resident's medication was
administered late so that the physician could be contacted. Medication Aide E verbalizing understanding.

their nutritional needs met and/or weight loss.
The findings included:
In an observation/interview on 01/15/2025 at 11:26 a.m., approximately 24-pieases of 4 ounce (oz) baked
tilapia on a tray in the oven. [NAME] removed 7-pieces of tilapia from the tray and placed them into the
mechanical blender along with 7 pieces of bread, and broth. The [NAME] stated that she was unsure
exactly how many residents required pureed diets. She then asked the interim dietary manager (IDM) who
had replied that there were 10-residents eating in the dining room and another 6-residents eating in their
rooms. When asked how many pieces of fish the [NAME] had blended for those residents, she stated she
added 15-pieces of fish to cover the 16-residents. She stated that 16-pieces of fish would also
accommodate for any double portion or second portion requests. When the [NAME] had been informed that
only 7-pieces of fish were observed being blended, the [NAME] disagreed stating she had placed 15 or
16-pieces of fish in the blender.
In an interview on 01/15/2025 at 11:59 a.m., with the Dietitian and the IDM, the Dietitian stated that the
Dietary Manager (DM) was off shift and that IDM was filling in until DM returned. IDM stated that there were
10-residents requiring puree meals and another 6residents requiring puree meals who ate in their rooms.
She stated that with 16-residents needing puree meals the total number of fish that should have been
prepared for puree should have been 16 plus an add additional 7 extra pieces given a total of 23-pieces of
fish. She stated that the extra pieces of fish would compensate for double portions. She stated that that the
number of portions of meat was always determined by the number of residents eating pureed and then they
would refer to the Daily Spreadsheet which was the recipe the followed when preparing pureed meals.
In an interview/observation on 01/15/2025 at 12:05 p.m., with the Dietitian and the IDM, the Dietitian was
not aware of how many oz of fish each of the residents required for each meal. She stated that she
observed roughly 24-pieces of fish on the oven pan cooking in the oven. She stated if [NAME] had removed
15-pieces of fish from the tray to cover the 16-residents, that the cooking tray would have been nearly
empty. She stated when [NAME] removed the fish from the oven tray she had not placed a full or near full
tray of fish into the blender. She stated once the [NAME] completed blending the fish more than half a tray
of fish remained. IDM stated that based on the obserthey needed to make more fish to cover all residents
receiving pureed fish with their meal. She was then observed going into the freezer bringing out box of
frozen fish. She then pulled out the cooking instructions for pureed food and reviewed.
In an interview on 01/15/2025 at 01:20 p.m., IMD stated that the puree fish tasted good, like flavored fish.
She stated that she made another batch of fish and that was provided with the test tray. Stated that she
tasted the first batch of pureed fish and it also tasted good. She stated that she

could not have provided fish from the first mix of pureed fish because they had run out and had to make
more pureed fish. She stated that they had enough fish to provide meals for all the residents and it was not
required for more fish to have been cooked. She stated that the box of fish that was observed being taking
from the freezer was placed back.
In an interview on 01/15/2025 at 02:04 p.m., DM stated that she had been off shift due to illness and that
the IDM had been filling her role while she was off. She stated that the facility had 16-residents that
required puree diets. She stated that she placed the weekly orders for food for the facility. She stated that
1-box of tilapia contained 96-4-oz pieces of fish and more than enough to serve the present censes at the
facility. She stated that pureed portions should be created to also accommodate double portions. She
stated 16-pureed meals should have 16 to 24 pieces to allow for double portions. She stated [NAME]
should have prepared the 96- pieces of fish, 72-pieces should have been plated leaving an overage of 24.
She stated that IDM should not have opened and/or cooked any more fish, as 24-extra pieces should have
covered all the residents. She stated that her staff were in-serviced as often as 1-time monthly on food
preparation and following menus. She stated that importance of residents receiving that required portions
was to ensure that the facility provided each resident with their required nutritional values.
In an interview on 01/15/2025 at 3:51 p.m., IDM stated that it had been her understanding that [NAME] had
not blended the correct amount of fish to compensate for the resident's requiring pureed meals. She stated
according to the Daily Spreadsheet which was the corporate menu they followed for portion control it noted
that if there were 16-residents to receive pureed fish, and the portions were per piece, each resident should
have received at least 1-piece of fish. She stated that [NAME] should have pureed 16-pieces of fish. She
stated that [NAME] knew to add 16-pieces, at the least and even make extra. She stated after [NAME]
began plating the food, the [NAME] had to puree 10 more pieces of fish, because it had not been enough to
plate all 16-residents. She stated the risk of not making enough pureed fish would that resident could lack
nutritional value, and not be given what the other residents were given, and that would have been unfair.
In an interview at 01/16/2025 at 10:30 a.m., [NAME] stated she had worked for the facility in the kitchen
since April 2024. She stated that she had not counted the fish when she began the puree process. She
stated that she believed it to have been 6 or 7-pieces of fish she placed in the blender with 6 or 7 pieces of
bread and broth to feed the 10-residents eating in the dining room and the residents eating in their rooms.
She stated that she should have blended 10-pieces of fish for the residents in the dining room and another
6 for the residents eating in their rooms. She stated that she had to puree another 14 or 15 pieces of fish
after she was informed, she had not added enough fish to accommodate all pureed meals. She stated that
the DM informed the kitchen staff daily how many pureed meals were needed, and it had also been posted
on the wall. She stated she verified that the posting for 01/15/2025 read 16-pureed meals. She stated after
a 01/16/2025 in-service given to her by the IDM she learned that each pureed resident needs at least
1-piece of fish each even if she adds thickener and/or bread. She stated it was importance for each resident
to be feed the correct portion control and nutritional value.
In an interview on 01/16/2025 at 02:57 p.m., the ADM stated that staff were required to follow food recipes
for residents to get proper portions of food to receive their nutritional needs. She stated that the adverse
effects would cause residents to lack of nutrition would be the adverse effect of resident not receive proper
portions. She stated that the kitchen staff received in-services on the importance of portion control and
following recipes.
