weights to ADON A. ADON A will then enter the weights in the weight log and notify DON, dietitian,
physician, and family as needed. He also stated that not following facility policy of weekly weights for
resident with significant weight loss will lead to failure to gauge if interventions put forth for weight loss were
effective.

was Mechanical soft diet with thin liquids; was on House shakes and Resident # 66's food intake was
50-100% of most meals. Dietitian was not aware if resident #66 needed any feeding assistance.
Dietitian then revealed that resident was stable for a while and no Intervention were added until October
2023.
Residents Affected - Few
In October 2023, Resident # 66 had weight loss of weight loss -11.8% x 30 days/-19.9% x 180 days; 80%
of IBW, and BMI =19.32. She revealed she recommended Recommend Ready Care 2.0 (supplement) at
120cc with medpass TID. Dietitian added she suspected there was a problem with the scale but reweights
were not carried out at the time.
Dietitian also stated that she did not look at weekly weights for Resident # 66 and was not sure if Resident
# 66 was placed on weekly weight monitoring, although Resident # 66 had significant weight loss since
June 2023. Dietitian reported that she was not trained to look at weekly weights on residents unless the
resident was newly started on Enteral feedings and had to be monitored. She also stated that she was not
aware of the facility policy regarding placing residents with significant weight loss on weekly weights. She
also revealed that if any resident was placed on weekly weights, it was the Nursing team that handled
weekly weights and she was not responsible for monitoring whether weekly weighing was carried out nor
did she look at them during her clinical review. Dietitian also revealed that since she reviewed monthly
weights; she based her effectiveness of interventions for residents with significant weight loss on Monthly
weights alone. She also revealed that the risk for not weighing residents with significant weight loss could
result in failure to determine if added interventions to mitigate weight loss were effective.
In an interview with the DON on 11/29/2023 at 2:55 PM revealed that Resident #66 started declining in
September of 2023 and the staff fed Resident # 66 since then. She added that Resident # 66 started
spilling food while feeding himself and hence was referred to Speech language pathologist for weight loss
and dysphagia. She revealed that if any resident had significant weight loss in the facility, Nursing would
notify the MD and the Dietitian and follow through with their recommendations. She then revealed that
weekly weight protocol would be initiated per facility policy. She also stated she was not sure if Resident #
66 was on weekly weights despite being identified with significant weight loss. She revealed it is usually the
dietitian that will recommend weekly weight intervention.
In another interview with the DON on 11/29/2023 at 3:30 PM revealed that she read the facility policy that
stated that any resident with significant weight loss should be on weekly weights. The DON stated that she
was not aware she did not need the Dietitian recommendation to implement weekly weight interventions
and it was an oversight from the Nursing team. She stated Inter disciplinary team approach should be used
for weight loss intervention with Dietitian recommending diet changes and Nursing team monitoring weekly
weights. She also revealed that she had received in-service from the corporate Nursing team just before
this interview regarding weekly weight implementation for residents with Significant weights per facility
policy. She also stated that not implementing weekly weight for Resident # 66 could result in failure to
determine if interventions that were added for mitigating weight loss were effective and could risk resident's
physical health.
Record review of Resident 66's medical record revealed there was no documentation of weekly weights in
his chart and wherever else weights were documented.
Review of facility's Assessment and Management of Resident Weights Policy dated 06/2020 revealed that

Review of Resident #73's Physician Order reflected no order for continuous oxygen administration.
Observation and interview with Resident #73 on 11/28/2023 at 10:58 AM revealed resident was in his bed
resting. Resident #73 was receiving oxygen supplement at 2 liters per minute via nasal cannula that was
connected to the oxygen concentrator, the nasal cannula had no date. The humidifier bottle on the oxygen
concentrator also had no date. Resident #73 had a nebulizer machine inside the drawer of the right bedside
table. Resident #73 stated he had been with oxygen since he cannot remember. He said he had lung
problem that was why he was in oxygen.
Observation and interview with Resident #73 on 11/28/2023 at 3:05 PM revealed resident on his bed
resting. The nebulizer mask was on the floor between the bed and the oxygen concentrator. The tubing of
the nebulizer mask was not dated. According to Resident #73, he had a breathing treatment after lunch but
he was not aware what time. He stated the nurse came in and put the mask on him. The resident said the
nurse did not come back when it was done so he put the mask on the table and did not notice it fell.
Resident #73 added it was hard for him to reach for the plastic bag.
Interview and observation with LVN I on 11/28/2923 at 3:10 PM, LVN I stated the nebulizer mask should not
be on the floor but instead stored in a plastic bag at the bedside. LVN I said she was not sure what time
Resident #73 had his breathing treatment. LVN I stated she did not notice the nebulizer mask was on the
floor when she did the shift change round. She said the nebulizer mask could get contaminated and
increase the risk of respiratory infections. She added she was about to give him another breathing
treatment and would change the nebulizer mask. LVN I pulled the tubing of the nebulizer mask from the
nebulizer and said she would dispose of it and bring a new one. No date was noted from the nebulizer
mask that was pulled from the nebulizer machine.
Interview with DON on 11/29/2023 at 8:09 AM, the DON stated any equipment used for respiratory care
must be bagged to ensure cleanliness. The DON said a nebulizer mask on the floor could cause infection
and cross contamination. She also said the tubing for the nasal cannula, the tubing for the nebulizer mask,
and the humidifier should be dated to ensure the residents were not using old tubings and humidifier. She
explained the old tubings and nebulizer mask could lead to infection and compromised oxygen intake. The
DON stated whoever was changing the tubings or the nebulizer mask should date them to indicate that the
tubings and the mask were changed. According to the DON, the night nurse was responsible in changing
the tubings and the mask once a week but whoever saw the mask or even the nasal cannula on the floor
should change it and date it. The DON said the nurse must have missed dating the said items. The DON
concluded the staff must ensure the tubings and the mask were dated. She said she would continually
remind the educate the staff of the importance of a competent respiratory care.
Interview with RN G on 11/29/2023 at 8:15 AM, RN G stated she was with the facility for a couple of
months. RN G said she was familiar with the care of Resident #73. She added Resident #73 had respiratory
problems that is why he was on oxygen and used breathing treatment. RN G said she gave the breathing
treatment twice for her shift. She said she was not aware the mask for the breathing treatment was on the
floor. She said the mask must be a bagged when not in use. She added the tubings and the mask should
be dated to know when they were last changed and when they were supposed to be changed. RN G said
she was not sure if the humidifier needed dating. RN G said a resident with oxygen had to have a physician
order for oxygen supplement. She said it should be in the system so the staff

Interview with Resident #73 on 11/29/2023 at 8:41 AM, Resident #73 reiterated the nurse would put on the
breathing treatment and when the treatment was done, he would usually put it on the table. He said
sometimes it would fall l on the floor. Resident #73 said sometimes he would get something from the drawer
and the mask would fall. He said the nebulizer machine and the mask should be placed on top of the table
so that when he would get something from the drawer, the mask will not fall.
Interview with CNA I on 11/29/2023 at 9:30 AM, CNA I stated anything that the residents used must be
clean. CNA I said if the residents were using oxygen, everything used such as nasal cannula and breathing
masks should be clean and bagged if not in use. She added if the mask was on the floor, it could cause an
infection because the germs from the floor will be inhaled by the resident. She added if ever she saw a
mask on the floor, she would tell the nurse so the nurse could replace it before the resident would use it
again. CNA I further added there was no five minute rule for the mask, if the mask was on the floor even for
one second, it should be changed.
Interview on 11/30/2023 at 8:23 AM, the Interim Administrator stated the tubings and the mask must be
dated weekly at a to minimum to make sure the staff were changing it. He said the tubings and the mask
were being changed to ensure they were in good conditions. The Interim Administrator added the nasal
cannula and the mask must be bagged when not in use. He continued if the tubings and the mask were not
changed, it could cause respiratory infection and the oxygen intake could be compromised. The Interim
Administrator stated there should be a physician order if the resident was using oxygen. He added the
nurses, ADON, and the DON were responsible in ensuring the required orders were in place. He said the
physician order was done to make sure the staff was following the exact prescription for oxygen
administration. He further added if the physician wanted a continuous administration of oxygen, then the
system must reflect continuous administration or else the resident will not get the treatment needed. The
Interim Administrator specified the expectation were for the staff to make sure to place the mask in a place
where it will not fall, to make sure the tubings and the mask were dated, and to make sure the system
accurately reflect the physician's order.
Interview with the DON at 11/30/2023 at 10:19 AM, the DON stated Resident #73 had been in and out of
the facility. She continued that during the last admission, dated 11/15/2023, the nurse must had missed
putting the order for continuous oxygen. She acknowledged that she overlooked Resident #73 did not have
a physician order for continuous oxygen administration.
