expected RN B to follow the physician's orders by flushing before and after medication administration and
she was supposed to flush in between medications. The DON stated RN B was supposed to check the
resident's G-Tube for placement and residual before medication administration. The DON stated she had

expected to check the resident's G-Tube placement to confirm the g-tube was at the right place and she
was supposed to check for residual G-Tube to make sure the resident was absorbing the feeding well and if
she did not and she was having too much in the stomach that could lead to aspiration.

cups are clear of any remnants of crushed pills or liquid medication. Alternate fluid may be used if the
facility policy and diet orders permit.
9. Once all medications have been administered, flush the tube with 30ml water or according to physician
order.

the kitchen. She stated that the Dietary Manager was responsible for storing the canned goods in the dry
storage pantry area. She stated that she did not observe the two dented 15 oz. cans of dark red kidney
beans on the shelf in the dry storage pantry. She stated that the dented cans were to be separated and
placed in a separate area for the dented cans. She stated that the risk of a resident possibly ingesting foods
from a dented can could cause the resident to become sick and ill.

In an Interview with the Dietary Manager on 11/05/2024 at 8:15 AM, he stated that it was his responsibility
to ensure that there were not any dented cans in the dry storage area with the other canned goods. He
stated that he has a routine of checking the dry storage area to ensure that everything is labeled, dated and
that there were not any dented cans on the shelf with the other canned goods. He stated that during his
routine of checking the dry storage and refrigerator, he will also ensure that there are not any expired food
or beverages in both areas. He stated that the risks of expired items being in the dry storage and
refrigerators is that giving a resident expired food can cause the resident to become sick and ill and that he
would not like to ingest any food that was expired. He stated that if food is not properly sealed, it could
cause air-borne illness to occur and can get the residents who eat the food at the facility sick. He stated
that he recently received a shipment of the Twist Lemonade from his vendor. He stated that the vendor
delivered the items, and they were expired. He reported that he signed the shipment from the manufacturer
for the delivery.
In an Interview with the Administrator on 11/05/2024 at 1:15 PM, he was informed about the findings in the
kitchen during the initial tour of the kitchen. He stated that he was surprised to hear about the findings in
the kitchen because he recently conducted a Mock Survey prior to the visit to the facility and he did not
have any concerns. He stated that the residents, himself and staff have eaten from the kitchen, and no one
has gotten sick from the food, and he had not received any reports from anyone regarding the food that is
served from the kitchen. He stated that the risk to anyone that eats food from the kitchen can cause them to
get sick, if they were to eat any expired food from the kitchen.
Record review of the facility's undated policy, Food and Storage Sanitation .Dented or otherwise damaged
cans will not be used. Once identified, dented cans should be stored in a separate area of the storeroom to
be returned to vendor or discarded.
Record review of the facility's undated policy, Food Storage and Dry Storage Supplies, revealed,
4. Open packages of food are stored in closed containers with covers or in sealed bags, and dated as to
when opened .
6. When items are received from the vendor, they should be first examined for expiration date, and if an
expiration date is present, it is beneficial to mark it by circling it so it is readily visible and noticeable. It is
important to distinguish between an expiration date and a production date, or a best by or use by date.
Production dates indicate when the product was manufactured, not when it expires, and should not be
interpreted as a best by or use by date. Best by or use by dates indicate when a product will have best
flavor or quality and are not an indicator of the product's safety. As the quality may deteriorate after the date
passes, the dietary manager should closely inspect any products that are past the best by date to
determine if they are still good quality. If in doubt, discard the product. If any stamped date is unclear,
contact the food vendor for clarification. If an item does not have a date designated by the manufacturer as
an expiration date, then the item should be dated as to when it is received, and shelf-stable items will be
stored in a first in, first out manner, to be used within one year. After one year, any product that is shelf
stable will be inspected by the dietary manager to ensure that it is good quality before it is used. Any
product with a stamped expiration date will be discarded once that date passes.
7. According to the USDA fact sheet on Food Product dating, product dating on manufactured goods is not
required by federal regulations except baby formula. For this reason, products without a dated shipping
label should be dated when they are received by the facility so there is a method to keep

but give a method to track the age of a product so that it can be evaluated for quality before service.
8. On perishable foods, microorganisms such as molds, yeasts, and bacteria can multiply and cause food to
spoil. Spoiled foods will develop an off odor, flavor or texture due to naturally occurring spoilage bacteria. If
a food has developed such spoilage characteristics, it should not be eaten. There are two types of bacteria
that can be found on food: pathogenic bacteria, which cause foodborne illness, and spoilage bacteria,
which causes foods to deteriorate and develop unpleasant characteristics such as an undesirable taste or
odor making the food not wholesome, but do not cause illness. Perishable foods have been
processed/treated and sealed to eliminate pathogenic bacteria, but spoilage bacteria can multiply and this
is what causes the food to deteriorate in quality and taste. If perishable food items are not stored at the
proper temperature, spoilage bacteria can grow faster than anticipated and food becomes spoiled and
should not be served. Food items such as loaves of bread or dairy products with a stamped best-by or use
by date do not need to be labeled when opened as this will not affect the date by which they should be
used. However, if possible food spoilage is observed prior to the best by date, the product will be discarded.
9. Perishable and non-perishable foods are classified based on their pH and water content Food
manufacturers must determine whether their products meet the perishable criteria when determining
whether they are required to declare expiration dates according to the Food and Drug Administration which
regulates their manufacturing processes. If a manufacturer is not required to declare an expiration date,
then that means that time is not a criteria in determining whether the product is safe to consume.
Non-perishable foods meet the criteria in the Texas Food Establishment rules for classifying foods as
non-time and temperature controlled for safety foods (NTCS). NTCS foods do not use time or temperature
as a criteria for determining food safety. These non-perishable foods are still dated when received if they do
not have an expiration date and once opened, but do not need to be discarded within 7 days after opening.
Perishable items that are refrigerated are dated once opened and used within 7 days (if they do not have
an expiration date or best by/use by date), but non-perishable items that are refrigerated once opened
should be dated when opened but do not need to be discarded until their expiration date or until the quality
has deteriorated .
Record review of the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) Code (2022) revealed, PACKAGED FOOD
shall be labeled as specified in LAW, including 21 CFR 101 FOOD Labeling, 9 CFR 317 Labeling, Marking
Devices, and Containers, and 9 CFR 381 Subpart N Labeling and Containers, and as specified under
§ 3-202.18. FOOD shall be protected from contamination that may result from a factor or source not
specified under Subparts 3-301 - 3-306.

Arrange for the provision of hospice services or assist the resident in transferring to a facility that will
arrange for the provision of hospice services.
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
interview and record review the facility failed to ensure that each resident's written plan of care includes
both the most recent hospice plan of care and a description of the services furnished by the LTC facility to
attain or maintain the resident's highest practicable physical, mental, and psychosocial well-being, for 1 of 6
residents (Resident #11) reviewed for hospice services.
The facility did not update Resident #11's care plan to reflect that she was on hospice.
This failure could place residents at risk for not receiving appropriate care and intervention to meet their
current needs.
The findings were:
Record review of Resident #11's Face Sheet, dated 11/07/24, revealed that she was a [AGE] year-old male
with an initial admission date to the facility of 06/08/23 and readmitted to the facility on [DATE]. Resident
#11's active diagnoses included: dysphagia (difficulty swallowing), dementia, behavioral disturbance,
psychotic disturbance, anxiety, hyperthyroidism (occurs when the thyroid gland produces too much thyroid
hormones), hyperlipidemia (a condition where there are abnormally high levels of lipids in the blood), and
heart failure.
Record review of Resident #11's MDS dated [DATE] revealed she had a BIMS score of 11/15 indicating a
moderate cognitive impairment. Section O - Special Treatments, Procedures, and Programs revealed no
documentation of for Hospice Services.
Record review of Resident #11's Hospice Binder revealed a Hospice Contract starting Hospice Services
with [Hospice Company] on 09/20/24.
Record Review of Resident #11's Physician Order revealed that Resident #11 was to begin on hospice
services on 09/20/24.
Record review of Resident #11's progress notes reflected: Hospice Care Changes. 09/20/24 .
Record review of Resident #11's Significant Change MDS dated [DATE] revealed she had a BIMS score of
6/15 indicating a severe cognitive impairment. Section O - Special Treatments, Procedures, and Programs
revealed that Resident #11 had Hospice Care while a resident at the facility.
Record review of Resident #11's Care Plan, no date indicated, did not reveal that she was on hospice.
In an interview with Resident #11 on 11/05/2024 at 2:11 PM, she stated that she had been at the facility for
almost a year. Resident #11 stated that she had dementia and was forgetful at times. She stated that she
was currently on hospice and had someone from the hospice come visit her on a regular basis.
In an interview with the ADON on 11/05/2024 at 2:11 PM she confirmed that Resident #11 was on h ospice
and receives hospice services. She stated that she was not sure why Resident #11's care plan did

reflecting that she is on Hospice can affect the care she receives from staff at the facility.
In an interview with the DON on 11/06/2024 at 4:11 PM, revealed that she was not aware that Resident
#11's Care Plan reflects that she was not on Hospice. She stated that Resident #11 started hospice
services on 09/20/24. She stated that she was responsible for updating Resident #11's Care Plan to reflect
that she is on hospice. She stated that she has several residents to update information for and that the
revision and update of Resident #11's Care Plan, must have fell through the cracks. She stated that she is
responsible for updating each resident's Care Plan. She stated that the risk of Resident #11's Care Plan not
being updated to reflect that she is on Hospice can affect the care she receives from staff. She stated that if
a resident, such as Resident #11 is on hospice, the residents care is provided by the hospice company, and
they are notified of any changes if they occur with the residents.
A record review of the facility's undated policy, Comprehensive Care Planning reflected:
The facility will develop and implement a comprehensive person-centered care plan for each resident,
consistent with the resident rights that includes measurable objectives and timeframes to meet a resident's
medical, nursing, and mental and psychosocial needs that are identified in the comprehensive assessment.
The comprehensive care plan will describe the following -The services that are to be furnished to attain or maintain the resident's highest practicable physical,
mental, and psychosocial well-being .
Each resident will have a person-centered comprehensive care plan developed and implemented to meet
his other preferences and goals, and address the resident's medical, physical, mental and psychosocial
needs.
Through the care planning process, facility staff will work with the resident and his/her representative, if
applicable, to understand and meet the resident's preferences, choices and goals during their stay at the
facility. The facility will establish, document and implement the care and services to be provided to each
resident to assist in attaining or maintaining his or her highest practicable quality of life. Care planning
drives the type of care and services that a resident receives.
Care plans will be person-centered and reflect the resident's goals for admission and desired outcomes.
Person-centered care means the facility focuses on the resident as the center of control, and supports each
resident in making his or her own choices. Person-centered care includes making an effort to understand
what each resident is communicating, verbally and nonverbally, identifying what is important to each
resident with regard to daily routines and preferred activities, and having an understanding of the resident's
life before coming to reside in the nursing home.
Residents' goals set the expectations for the care and services he or she wishes to receive. Measurable
objectives describe the steps toward achieving the resident's goals, and can be measured, quantified,
and/or verified.
The comprehensive care plan will reflect interventions to enable each resident to meet his/her

objectives. Interventions are the specific care and services that will be implemented.
Level of Harm - Minimal harm
or potential for actual harm
When developing the comprehensive care plan, facility staff will, at a minimum, use the Minimum Data Set
(MDS) to assess the resident's clinical condition, cognitive and functional status, and use of services.
Residents Affected - Few
If a Care Area Assessment (CAA) is triggered, the facility will further assess the resident to determine
whether the resident is at risk of developing, or currently has a weakness or need associated with that
CAA, and how the risk, weakness or need affects the resident. Documentation regarding these
assessments and the facility's rationale for deciding whether or not to proceed with care planning for each
area triggered will be recorded in the medical record.
There may be times when a resident risk, weakness or need is identified within the context of the MDS
assessment, but may not cause a CAA to trigger. The facility will address these areas and will document
the assessment of these risks, weaknesses or needs in the medical record and determine whether or not to
develop a care plan and interventions to address the area. If the decision to proceed to care planning is
made, the interdisciplinary team (IDT), in conjunction with the resident and/or resident's representative, if
applicable, will develop and implement the comprehensive care plan and describe how the facility will
address the resident's goals, preferences, strengths, weaknesses, and needs.
In situations where a resident's choice to decline care or treatment (e.g., due to preferences, maintain
autonomy, etc.) poses a risk to the resident's health or safety, the comprehensive care plan will identify the
care or service being declined, the risk the declination poses to the resident, and efforts by the
interdisciplinary team to educate the resident and the representative, as appropriate. The facility's attempts
to find alternative means to address the identified risk/need should be documented in the care plan.
In addition to addressing preferences and needs assessed by the MDS, the comprehensive care plan will
coordinate with and address any specialized services or specialized rehabilitation services the facility will
provide or arrange as a result of PASARR recommendations. If the IDT disagrees with the findings of the
PASARR, it will indicate its rationale in the resident's medical record. The rationale should include an
explanation of why the resident's current assessed needs are inconsistent with the PASARR
recommendations and how the resident would benefit from alternative interventions. The facility should also
document a resident's the resident's preference for a different approach to achieve goals or refusal of
recommended services.
Residents' preferences and goals may change throughout their stay, so facilities should have ongoing
discussions with the resident and resident representative, if applicable, so that changes can be reflected in
the comprehensive care plan.
The comprehensive care plan will address a resident's preference for future discharge, as early as upon
admission, to ensure that each resident is given every opportunity to attain his/her highest quality of life.
This encourages facilities to operate in a person-centered fashion that addresses resident choice and
preferences.

Provide and implement an infection prevention and control program.
Level of Harm - Minimal harm
or potential for actual harm
Based on observations, interviews, and record review, the facility failed to maintain an infection control
program designed to prevent the development and transmission of infection for 4 (#85, #5,#24, & #8) of 8
residents observed for infection control.
Residents Affected - Some
The facility failed to ensure RN B cleaned the glucometer in between each resident's use.
The facility failed to ensure LVN C disinfected the blood pressure cuff in between each resident's blood
pressure checks.
These failures could place residents at risk for infection and cross contamination of pathogens and illness.
Findings included:
Observation on 11/06/24 at 07:35 AM revealed RN B getting a glucometer machine from the medication
cart and proceeded to Resident #24 and checked her blood sugar. After checking the resident's blood
sugar RN B placed the glucometer on top of the medication cart, took off gloves her and completed hand
hygiene. RN B documented and proceeded to administer the resident's medication. After administering
Resident #24's medications RN B proceeded to Resident #5's room. RN B got the same glucometer she
had used that was on top of the medication cart, put on gloves and proceeded to Resident #5's room and
checked her blood sugar. After checking the blood sugar RN B returned to the medication cart and placed
the glucometer machine on top of the medication cart and did not clean and glucometer. RN B took off her
gloves, completed hand hygiene and administered insulin to Resident #5. After she was done with Resident
#5, RN B proceeded to Resident #85's room. RN B checked the resident's blood sugar with the same
glucometer that she had not cleaned between the residents. After she checked the resident's blood sugar,
she did not clean the glucometer machine and then placed the glucometer machine in the cart.
In an interview on 11/06/24 at 08:15 am with RN B she stated she was supposed to clean the glucometer in
between resident use, but she forgot. She stated she was supposed to clean the glucometer to prevent
cross contamination. She stated had an in-service on infection control about 1 week ago.
Observation on 11/05/24 at 08:40 AM revealed LVN C checking Resident #27's blood pressure then
administered the resident's medication, LVN C did not clean the blood pressure machine. LVN C completed
hand hygiene after medication administration and proceeded to Resident # 8's room and with the same
blood pressure machine checked the resident's blood pressure. After checking the blood pressure LVN C
did not clean the blood pressure machine. LVN C then proceeded to Resident #20's room and used the
same blood pressure machine to check the residents blood pressure. LVN C was observed using the blood
pressure machine and did not clean in between resident use.
In an interview on 11/05/25 at 09:18 with LVN C regarding cleaning the blood pressure machine between
resident's use, LVN C stated she was no longer required to clean the blood pressure machine between the
