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.

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.

Level of Harm - Minimal harm
or potential for actual harm
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
observation, interviews and record reviews, the facility failed to establish and maintain an infection control
program designed to provide a safe, sanitary, and comfortable environment and to help prevent the
development and transmission of communicable diseases and infections for one resident (#1) of two
residents observed for infection control in that:
Residents Affected - Few
CNA B and CNA C failed to follow infection control requirements while performing incontinent care for
Resident #1.
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).
Review of Resident #1's quarterly MDS assessment with an ARD of 02/08/2023 revealed Resident #1
always incontinent of bowel and bladder. 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 02/16/2023 revealed
Focus .has bowel/bladder incontinence r/t sphincter function .interventions .check as required for

soaked brief and cleaned the resident and did not sanitize her hands prior to putting on clean gloves. She
then removed gloves, went out of the room to get a clean draw sheet, came back into the room, and placed
the clean draw sheet on the bed under the resident with her bare hands. CNA C took off her dirty gloves
and placed them onto the Resident #1's bed. CNA C did not sanitize her hands prior to donning clean
gloves. CNA B then put clean gloves on without sanitizing her hands and finished Resident #1's care.
Interview on 4/4/23 at 10:20 a.m. with CNA's B and CNA C revealed they had training on infection control.
CNA C stated she should have sanitized her hands and not put the dirty gloves onto the resident's bed. She
