This survey cited 3 deficiencies, 2 of them serious (actual harm or immediate jeopardy). The full statement and the facility’s plan of correction follow, verbatim from the federal record.

F 0656 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Some 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 interviews and record reviews, the facility failed to develop a comprehensive person-centered care plan for each resident that includes measurable objectives and timeframes to meet a resident's medical, nursing, and mental and psychosocial needs and describes the services that are to be furnished to attain or maintain the resident's highest practicable physical, mental, and psychosocial well-being for one resident (Resident #1) out of four residents reviewed for the development of the comprehensive care plans. The facility failed to ensure Resident #1 had a comprehensive person-centered care plan completed to reflect Resident #1's care needs for Catheter, Diabetes, Oxygen therapy, medications (antibiotics , anti-hypertensive, anticoagulant), and Cognition. This deficient practice places the resident at risk for not receiving the necessary and appropriate care. Findings included: Review of Resident # 1's face sheet dated 05/18/2025 reflected a [AGE] year-old male admitted on [DATE] with diagnoses that included: Autistic disorder (is a developmental disorder that affects communication, behavior and social interaction, with symptoms typically appearing in early childhood), Hypertension (HTN High blood pressure), Urinary retention, history of Urinary Tract Infections (UTI -occurs when bacteria get in the urinary system, often through the urethra, and begin to multiply in the bladder), Diabetes Mellitus type II (a chronic condition characterized by insulin resistance and elevated blood sugar levels). Resident #1's admission MDS dated [DATE] indicated he had a BIMS score of not conducted indicating severe cognitive impairment. Staff assessment of Mental Status reflected Resident #1 has short-term and long-term memory problems. Section H- Bladder and Bowel reflected Resident #1 had an indwelling catheter. Section I- Active Diagnoses reflected Resident #1 had Diabetes Mellitus. Section N Medication reflected Resident #1 took an anticoagulant medication. Section O-Special Treatments, procedures and Program reflected Resident #1 was on oxygen therapy. Review of Resident #1's Care Plan initiated 04/14/2025 reflected only Resident #1's dietary needs were addressed and there was no plan of care for catheter, DM, Oxygen therapy, Anticoagulant or Hypertension. Review of Resident #1's MAR reflected the following orders: (continued on next page) Any deficiency statement ending with an asterisk (*) denotes a deficiency which the institution may be excused from correcting providing it is determined that other safeguards provide sufficient protection to the patients.

During an interview on 05/19/2025 at 12:41 pm the DON stated the facility had a remote MDS Nurse who was responsible to complete care plans. The DON stated Resident #1 should have had a comprehensive care plan completed but was not sure of the time frame, maybe within 48-72 hours. The DON stated she usually checked to see if the baseline care plans were developed. The DON stated she was wearing so many heads and it was hard to keep up. The DON stated Residents needed care plans to know how to take care of them. During an interview on 05/19/2025 at 1:35 pm, the Interim Administrator stated the initial baseline care plan should be done 48-72 hours after admission. The Interim Administrator stated compressive care plans should be done with the initial MDS assessment and quarterly updates, and when there is a significant change. The Interim Administrator stated a comprehensive care plan was a road map to provide care for a particular resident. The Interim Administrator stated it was not good that Resident #1's comprehensive care plan only addressed his dietary needs, and she did not have explanation as to why Resident #1's comprehensive care plan was not completed. The Interim Administrator stated the MDS Nurse was responsible to complete the comprehensive care plans with information provided by the DON. During a phone interview on 05/19/2025 at 3:17 pm the MDS nurse stated she completes the comprehensive care plan after she had completed her assessment about 21 days after admission. The MDS Nurse stated she completed Resident #1's MDS assessment on 04/14/2025 but did not complete his comprehensive Care Plan. The MDS nurse stated it looked like it fell through the cracks, and she did not have explanation as to why Resident #1's comprehensive care plan was not done.

F 0690 Level of Harm - Immediate jeopardy to resident health or safety Residents Affected - Some 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 interview, and record review, the facility failed to ensure that a resident who is incontinent of bladder receives appropriate treatment and services to prevent urinary tract infections for 1 (Resident #1) of 4 residents review for catheter care. The facility failed to change Resident #1's foley catheter (a medical device used to drain urine from the bladder.) as ordered monthly on 04/09/2025 and 5/9/2025. Resident #1 was sent to the local ER on [DATE] due to fever and lethargy and was diagnosed with possible sepsis (is a life-threatening condition that occurs when the body has extreme response to infection). This failure resulted in an identification of an Immediate Jeopardy (IJ) on 05/19/2025 at 4:19 pm and an IJ template was given. While the IJ was removed on 05/20/2025 at 7:01 pm, the facility remained out of compliance at a severity of no actual harm with a potential for more than minimal harm, that was not immediate jeopardy at a scope of pattern, due to the facility's need to evaluate the effectiveness of the corrective systems. This deficient practice could place residents at risk for hospitalization, coma and death. Findings included: Review of Resident # 1's face sheet dated 05/18/2025 reflected a [AGE] year-old male admitted on [DATE] with diagnoses that included: Autistic disorder (is a developmental disorder that affects communication, behavior and social interaction, with symptoms typically appearing in early childhood), Hypertension (HTN High blood pressure), Urinary retention, history of Urinary Tract Infections (UTI -occurs when bacteria get in the urinary system, often through the urethra, and begin to multiply in the bladder), Diabetes Mellitus type II (a chronic condition characterized by insulin resistance and elevated blood sugar levels).

Level of Harm - Immediate jeopardy to resident health or safety Provide catheter care Q-shift/PRN every shift. Residents Affected - Some Review of Resident #1's Care Plan initiated 04/14/2025 reflected no plan of care for catheter, DM or Hypertension. Review of Resident #1's TAR reflected his Foley was changed on 4/9/25 by MA E. Review of Resident #1's TAR reflected his Foley was changed on 5/9/25 by MA A. Review of Resident #1's progress notes written by LVN C dated 05/17/2025 at 1:39 pm reflected: Resident transferred to ER due to difficult to arouse, decrease in urine output and low blood pressure. Review of Resident #1 current hospital records dated 5/17/2025 reflected: He was sent over from his nursing home for fever of 101, more lethargic than usual and his glucose reading was high. On arrival his serum glucose is around 478, sodium is 156, creatinine of 4. He is very lethargic and barely opens eyes. Initial work up shows likely diagnosis of DKA/ hyperosmolar diabetes (is a serious complication of diabetes, primarily occurring in individual with type 2 diabetes), possible sepsis, UTI (his foley was exchanged in ER, had brown urine with some pus in penile area), possible right lung pneumonia, with AKI. During an interview on 05/19/2025 at 10:11 am MA A stated she did not change Resident #1's foley catheter because it was outside her scope of practice. MA A stated Resident #1's foley catheter order to change was on her MAR and she accidentally signed it. MA A also stated she did not tell the nurse who worked on 5/9/2025 about the foley catheter needing to be changed. During an interview on 05/19/2025 at 11:04 am the DON stated, foley catheters were supposed to be changed once a month. The DON stated if foley catheters were not changed as ordered, the resident would get infection. The DON stated Resident #1's foley catheter was supposed to be changed around 5/09/2025 and the nurse was supposed to initial when it was changed. The DON stated staff did not document urine output because Resident #1 did not have orders to document urine output and Resident #1 did not have issues with output. The DON stated MAs cannot change foley catheters because it was not within their scope of practice. The DON reviewed Resident #1's TAR and noted that it was not changed on 4/9 and 5/9 but was initialed by MAs. The DON stated Resident #1's order for catheter change was revised on 5/10/2025 by LVN F to reflect on the nurse's TAR, according to the DON. During an interview on 05/19/2025 at 11:43 am the NP stated Resident #1 had a foley catheter due to urinary retention. The NP stated she usually did not write orders for foley catheters, and she let the urologist deal with foley catheters. The NP stated she expected the facility to keep foley catheters clean and free from infection. The NP asked to step out and call the MD, came back later and stated she would not continue with the interview unless her MD was present. During a phone interview on 05/19/2025 at 2:45 pm the MD stated, there was new evidence that indicated not to change the foley catheter monthly.

F 0690 Level of Harm - Immediate jeopardy to resident health or safety Residents Affected - Some make a difference in infection prevention. The MD stated the hospital may have said change the foley catheter monthly, but he disagreed with the urologist (are medical specialists who focus on the diagnosis and treatment of conditions related to the urinary tract and male reproductive system) . The MD stated Resident #1 would have to be scheduled for urology follow-up, maybe his foley catheter was difficult. During an interview on 05/19/2025 at 1:35 pm, the Interim Administrator stated not changing the foley catheter as ordered can lead to possible infection. The Interim Administrator stated the CNAs were supposed to document urine output. The interim Administrator stated if Resident #1 had the foley catheter due to urinary retentions, it was important to document urine output. Attempts was made to contact MA E on 05/19/2025 at 10:30 am but was unsuccessful. Attempts was made to contact LVN F on 05/19/2025 at 12:21 pm but was unsuccessful . Review of facility's policy titled Catheter Care; Urinary dated August 2022 reflected: Purpose The purpose of this procedure is to prevent urinary catheter-associated complications, including urinary tract infections. Preparation 1. Review the resident's care plan to assess for any special needs of the resident. 2. Assemble the equipment and supplies as needed. The VP for Operation, Interim Administrator and the DON were notified on 05/19/25 at 4:19 pm that an IJ had been identified and an IJ template was provided. The following POR was approved on 05/20/25 at 12:51 pm.

The DON stated Resident #1 contract with the hospital only pay for room and boarding only. Residents Affected - Some During an interview on 05/19/2025 at 1:35 pm, the Interim Administrator stated when a resident is being admitted from the hospital, the admitting nurse was responsible to call the hospital for clarification of orders. She stated, if the Resident was transported to the facility without hospital papers, the admitting nurse is responsible to contact the hospital for discharge papers and follow up on the papers. The Interim Administrator stated the DON was responsible to ensure the nurses were following all orders. The Interim Administrator stated for a resident who was ordered insulin and did not get the insulin, the resident's blood glucose would be high. The Interim Administrator stated the facility missed the insulin order for Resident #1, it was a mistake, and they were working on fixing the problem. The Interim Administrator stated for a Resident with LOA funding, the facility gets paid a flat rate per day through the hospital contract. The Interim Administrator also stated the facility would pay for labs because the Resident had to be taken care of. The Interim Administrator stated that was a misunderstanding. The Interim Administrator stated the MD should be able to see and treat every Resident regardless of their payment source. During a phone interview on 05/19/2025 at 2:45 pm the MD stated he had just reviewed Resident #1's chart and the insulin and accu checks were an error on their part. He stated it was an oversight not looking for the accu check and the insulin administration. The MD stated his office should have realized that Resident #1's insulin was held. The MD stated he was told by the NP that the DON said the insulin was discontinued due to insurance problem/ LOA. The MD stated the facility should have continued with Resident #1's accu checks and stopped the 70/30 insulin when the blood glucose was stable. The MD stated his NP should have asked the facility to monitor Resident #1's blood glucose reading regardless of payment source. The MD stated DKA was considered life threatening, but we can bring the Resident/Patient back from it. He stated DKA can also be triggered by acute infection, but again, the blood glucose should have been monitored before the facility can decide on keeping Resident #1 on the insulin or not.
