What the inspector wrote

This survey cited 3 deficiencies. The full statement and the facility’s plan of correction follow, verbatim from the federal record.

F 0693 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Some Ensure that feeding tubes are not used unless there is a medical reason and the resident agrees; and provide appropriate care for a resident with a feeding tube. **NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on observation, interview, and record review, the facility failed to ensure residents fed by enteral means received the appropriate treatment and services for 2 of 2 residents (Residents #8 and #23) reviewed for tube feeding management. 1. The facility failed to ensure that Resident #8 and Resident #23 had properly labeled formula and water for their tube feedings on 12/17/24 and 12/18/24. 2. The facility failed to ensure that Resident #8's head of bed was elevated while her tube feeding was infusing on 12/18/24. These failures could place residents at risk of aspiration and not receiving adequate nutrition by way of enteral feeding. The findings included: Review of Resident #8's face sheet revealed she was a [AGE] year-old female admitted to the facility on [DATE] with diagnoses including dementia, dysphagia (difficulty swallowing) following stroke, and protein-calorie malnutrition. Review of Resident #8's Annual MDS Assessment, dated 11/21/24, revealed: she scored a 5 on her mental status exam, indicating severe cognitive impairment. She was dependent on staff for all ADLs. She had loss of liquids/solids from mouth when eating or drinking, holding food in mouth/cheeks or residual in food in mouth after meals, coughing or choking during meals or when swallowing medications, and complaints of difficulty or pain with swallowing. She had a feeding tube and received 51% or more of her total calories from tube feeding and 501 cc/day or more of her fluid intake from tube feeding. Review of Resident #8's Care Plan, most recent edit date 12/18/24, revealed the following: Problem Resident was at nutritional risk and fluid alteration as she requires enteral tube feeding, Isosource 1.5 continuous feeding with water flushes. (Resident is NPO related to stroke associated dysphagia. Goal Resident will not exhibit signs of complications from feeding tube or enteral feeding solution. Approach (interventions) - Administer medications via tube; evaluate/record/report effectiveness/adverse side effects. Check placement and patency of feeding tube before each feeding or medication administration. Monitor for signs of malnutrition (pale skin, dull eyes, swollen lips, swollen gums, swollen and/or dry tongue with [NAME] or magenta hue, poor skin turgor, cachexia (a general state of ill health involving weight loss and muscle loss), bilateral edema, muscle wasting). NPO (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. (See instructions.) Except for nursing homes, the findings stated above are disclosable 90 days following the date of survey whether or not a plan of correction is provided. For nursing homes, the above findings and plans of correction are disclosable 14 days following the date these documents are made available to the facility. If deficiencies are cited, an approved plan of correction is requisite to continued program participation.

The care plan contained proper documentation of the resident's tube feeding, goals, and interventions. The saved copy of the resident's care plan was erased and unable to be referenced at the time the citation was written. Observation on 12/18/24 at 5:05 pm revealed Resident #23's tube feeding hanging on pole with bag of water. The resident was not in the room at the time, and the tube feeding set up was hanging but not connected to the resident. Neither bag (formula or water) had a label indicating date prepared or resident information. In an interview on 12/19/24 at 5:26 pm with the ADON and DON, the DON stated that Resident #8 and Resident #23 were the only tube residents in the facility with feeding tubes. The DON stated that the nurses should ensure that the HOB was elevated to 30 to 45 degrees during a tube feeding, the resident should remain with HOB elevated throughout the feeding and then for at least 30 minutes after the feeding is disconnected. The DON and ADON both stated that the formula and water bags should have a label including the date, nurse initials, flow rate for feeding, resident name, resident room number, and the time the bag was hung. The DON stated that annual competencies were done for feeding tubes for all nursing staff. The ADON stated there were newly hired nurses in the facility that might need refreshing on the training and policy/procedure. The DON stated there was no excuse for the failures. The ADON stated the failures were an educational issue with the nursing staff. In an interview on 12/19/24 at 6:17 pm, the Administrator stated that she had nothing further to add regarding the failures and that she agreed with everything the ADON and DON had stated. She stated that the formula and water bags not being labeled occurred on 2 different staff rotations and that indicated it was an educational issue across the board that needed to be addressed. She stated that the head of the bed not being elevated was also an educational issue. Review of facility policy titled Enteral Formula Via: Feeding Tube, Bolus, Gravity, Pump (Closed/Open) Administration effective date 10/2020 revealed, in part: The syringe and bag (if used) should be changed every 24 hours. The ready-to-hang bottles should be changed according to the manufacturer recommendation or when total amount infused is less than the manufacturer recommendation .
