This survey cited 2 deficiencies. The full statement and the facility’s plan of correction follow, verbatim from the federal record.

F 0695 Provide safe and appropriate respiratory care for a resident when needed. Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm **NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on observations, interviews and record reviews, the facility failed to ensure that a resident who needs respiratory care, including tracheostomy care and tracheal suctioning, is provided such care, consistent with professional standards of practice, the comprehensive person-centered care plan, the resident's goals and preferences for one resident (#1) of one resident observed for oxygen therapy in that: Residents Affected - Few Resident #1's oxygen rate was set to 3.5 L/min instead of the physician ordered 2.0 L/min. This deficient practice could affect residents on oxygen therapy and could result in hypoxemia (levels of oxygen in blood are lower than normal) and respiratory distress (difficulty breathing). The findings were: Review of Resident #1's electronic face sheet dated 04/04/2023 revealed she was admitted to the facility on [DATE] with diagnoses of acute respiratory failure with hypoxia, (a serious condition that affects the oxygen levels in the blood and can damage vital organs), chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (disease with persistent respiratory symptoms like progressive breathlessness and cough) and congestive heart failure (a progressive heart disease that affects pumping action of the heart muscles that causes fatigue and shortness of breath). Review of Resident #1's quarterly MDS assessment with an ARD of 02/08/2023 revealed Resident #1 was on oxygen therapy while a resident. Further review of the MDS revealed Resident #1 scored an 11/15 on her BIMS which indicated she was moderately cognitively impaired. She could usually understand others. Review of Resident #1's comprehensive person-centered care plan revised date 11/11/2022 revealed Focus .has oxygen therapy r/t ineffective gas exchange .interventions .O2@ 2 LPM per NC continuous. Review of Resident #1's Active Orders as of: 04/04/2023 revealed O2 AT 2 L/MIN CONTINUOUS PER NC every shift for SOB Verbal Active 10/12/2022. Review of Resident #1's MAR dated 04/04/2023 revealed O2 at 2 L/MIN continuous per NC every shift for SOB, and each day had the nurse's initials from 04/01/2023 to 04/04/2023. LVN A had initialed off on Resident #1's MAR for 4/03/2023 and 4/04/2023 day shift which was a 12-hour shift. Observation on 04/04/2023 at 09:20 a.m. of Resident #1 revealed her oxygen rate was set to 3.5 L/min.

F 0695 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Observation on 4/5/23 at 09:39 am of Resident #1 revealed her oxygen canister rate was set at 3.5 L/mins. The DON accompanied the surveyor, she confirmed the rate, and changed the rate to 2 L/min. Interview on 04/04/2023with Resident #1, she stated her oxygen rate should be at 2 L/min. She stated she had always used oxygen and that the nurses adjusted her oxygen rate. Residents Affected - Few Interview on 04/05/2023 with the DON revealed for Resident #1, we do not want to go over three liters because of her CHF. It is important to have the oxygen rate correct because it could be harmful for the resident to get too much or not enough oxygen and make it difficult for her to breath. Interview on 4/5/2023 at 11:58 a.m. with LVN A revealed I did not check the oxygen concentrator rate this a.m. or yesterday a.m. and I realized today it was on the wrong rate. We must check the oxygen rates. I was too busy. I have been working so many hours here. I signed off that I checked it but did not actually check the rate. Resident #1 does not adjust her own rate. She has COPD, the wrong rate could make it hard for her to breath and result respiratory distress. Review of the facility policy and procedure titled Oxygen Administration dated revised 05/2007 revealed Turn the unit on to the desired flow rate .reassess oxygen flow meter for correct liter flow.

This deficient practice could affect residents who receive incontinent care and could result in cross contamination of germs and could result in a urinary tract infection (a painful infection of the urinary system, which includes the kidneys, bladder, urethra, and ureters). The findings were: Review of Resident #1's electronic face sheet dated 04/04/2023 revealed she was admitted to the facility on [DATE] with diagnoses of acute respiratory failure with hypoxia, (a serious condition that affects the oxygen levels in the blood and can damage vital organs), chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (disease with persistent respiratory symptoms like progressive breathlessness and cough) and congestive heart failure (a progressive heart disease that affects pumping action of the heart muscles that causes fatigue and shortness of breath).

CNA B removed the urine soaked brief and cleaned the resident and did not sanitize her hands prior to putting on clean gloves.
