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
observation, interview, and record review the facility failed to treat each resident with dignity and respect in
a manner and environment that enhances his and her quality of life for 1 of 13 residents (Resident #22)
reviewed for, in that:
CNA E referred to Resident #22's brief as a, diaper.
This deficient practice could affect residents at the facility who receive assistance with incontinent care and
could place them at-risk for diminished quality of life, loss of dignity and low self-esteem.
The findings were:
Record review of Resident #22's face sheet, dated 03/03/2023, revealed an initial admission date of
11/05/2014 and a readmission date of 04/14/2020 with diagnoses that included generalized muscle
weakness and unspecified pain in hip.
Record review of Resident #22's MDS, a Quarterly assessment dated [DATE], revealed under Section C
her BIMS (Brief Interview for Mental Status) score was 14 out of 15, which indicated her cognition was
intact. Review of Section G functional status revealed the resident required extensive assistance and 1
person assist with toileting. Review of Section H urinary continence and bowel continence showed the
resident was always incontinent.
Record review of Resident #22's care plan, dated 02/26/2022, revealed a category for incontinence for
urinary and bowel with a goal to maintain resident #22's dignity during episodes of incontinence and
incontinent care by checking every 2 hours and providing care as needed, perineal cleansing and apply
protective skin barrier after each incontinent episode, provide adult incontinent products and monitor for
incontinence every 2 hours, assess and report signs of impaired skin integrity or breakdown, and
encourage to turn and reposition as tolerated.
During an observation on 03/02/2023 at 4:07 p.m. CNA E was providing incontinent care for Resident #22.
CNA E stated to Resident #22, I am going to take off your diaper.
During an interview on 03/02/2023 at 4:22 p.m. CNA E stated it believed it was acceptable to call a brief
underwear or a diaper. CNA E stated she was not aware of any issues with using the word diaper and had
not been trained to use alternative words.

medical information accessible to the public.
The findings included:

Status sitting below the daily menu board. When the binder was opened, the completed out-of-hospital
do-not-resuscitate forms for residents, and resident face sheets were observed.

entry table below the daily menu. The dietary manager stated the social worker was responsible for the
binder.

no longer on the table in the dining room. The social worker stated she was responsible for the binder.
When asked the reason for the code status binder being in the dining room, the social worker responded
that it was in there in case of an emergency in the dining room.
Record review on [DATE] at 9:45 AM of code status binder obtained from dining room held the following
resident's out-of-hospital do-not-resuscitate form: Resident #19, Resident #22, Resident #26, Resident #31,
Resident #37, Resident #48.

table as you walk in and is not locked up in the event of an emergency for the convenience of getting it
immediately. The SW stated that family members eat in the dining room, and anyone is free to go into the
dining room as they please. She then stated, to my knowledge, no one has opened the code status book
except for me. The SW stated that the face sheet in the binder meant the resident was full code, while the

it should be in a secure location. The DON stated it should not have been out so that anyone could access
it. The DON stated there is potential for a HIPPA violation as it does have social security numbers for full
code residents as well as their diagnosis.

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
observation, interview, and record review, the facility failed to ensure each resident who was incontinent of
bowel/bladder received appropriate treatment and services to prevent urinary tract infections for 1 of 2
residents (Resident #22) reviewed for incontinent care, in that:
CNA E did not use proper technique when providing incontinent care for Resident #22.
This deficient practice could place residents at risk for infection and skin break down due to improper care
practices.
The findings were:
Record review of Resident #22's face sheet, dated 03/03/2023, revealed an initial admission date of
11/05/2014 and a readmission date of 04/14/2020 with diagnoses that included generalized muscle
weakness and unspecified pain in hip.
Record review of Resident #22's MDS, a Quarterly assessment dated [DATE], revealed under Section C
her BIMS (Brief Interview for Mental Status) score was 14 out of 15, which indicated her cognition was
intact. Review of Section G functional status revealed the resident required extensive assistance and 1
person assist with toileting. Review of Section H urinary continence and bowel continence showed the
resident was always incontinent.
Record review of Resident #22's care plan, dated 02/26/2022, revealed a category for incontinence for
urinary and bowel with a goal to maintain resident #22's dignity during episodes of incontinence and
incontinent care by checking every 2 hours and providing care as needed, perineal cleansing and apply
protective skin barrier after each incontinent episode, provide adult incontinent products and monitor for
incontinence every 2 hours, assess and report signs of impaired skin integrity or breakdown, and
encourage to turn and reposition as tolerated.
During an observation on 03/02/2023 at 4:07 p.m. CNA E provided incontinent care for Resident #22. CNA
E washed his hands and explained the care he would be providing to Resident #22. CNA E cleansed
Resident #22's anterior (front) perineal area and between the vaginal labia wiping front to back direction.
CNA E then cleaned the posterior (back) perineal and buttocks area wiping from back to front direction
stopping at the perineum (area between the vaginal opening and anus) area each time.
During an interview on 03/02/2023 CNA E stated he wiped Resident #23 in a down and out direction. CNA
E stated staff were trained this was acceptable as long as they turned in an outward direction before they
got all the way to the front vaginal area.

infection control, in that:
Residents Affected - Some
1. MA B dropped a glove on the floor, put the glove on, and dispensed medications for Resident #5.
2. LVN A touched a medication with her hand while dispensing medication for Resident #28.
3. CNA D used the same paper towel to dry her hands, turn off the sink faucet, and dry her hands again
prior to incontinent care for Resident #22.
These deficient practices could place residents who receive medication or incontinent care at-risk for
infections.
The findings included:
1. Record review of Resident #5's face sheet, dated 03/03/23, revealed an initial admission date of 03/11/21

went into Resident #5's room to obtain a pair of gloves from a box on the wall inside the resident's room.
MA B was observed picking a glove up off the floor. MA B returned to the medication cart and put the glove
on that had fallen on the floor. MA B then opened a capsule of medication for Resident #5 and dumped the
contents into a medication cup with other crushed medications for Resident #5.
During an interview on 03/01/23 at 11:49 a.m. MA B stated she did not know if she dropped an item. MA B
stated she may have dropped a glove on the floor, but she was not sure. MA B stated she should not use a
glove that fell on the floor because it could be contaminated.
