Residents Affected - Some
The facility did not maintain physician's orders and medical information needed to monitor Resident #13's
cardiac pacemaker (electronic device that is implanted in the body to monitor heart rate and rhythm that
stimulates the heart with electrical impulses to maintain or restore a normal heartbeat) parameters for
proper functioning.
This failure could place residents of risk for not receiving proper care and treatment.
The findings were:
Record review of Resident #13's face sheet, dated 03/28/23, revealed an [AGE] year old male admitted to
the facility on [DATE] and re-admitted on [DATE] with diagnoses that included hemiplegia and hemiparesis
following cerebral infraction affecting left non-dominant side (weakness of one entire side of the body or
complete paralysis of half of the body from a stroke), type 2 diabetes, and heart failure, hypertension (high
blood pressure). The face sheet did not indicate a diagnosis for presence of a cardiac pacemaker.
Record review of Resident #13's most recent quarterly MDS assessment, dated 01/19/23 revealed the
resident had severely impaired cognition. Further review of the quarterly MDS did not contain information
about a cardiac pacemaker.
Record review of Resident #13's comprehensive person-centered care plan, revision date 05/12/22
revealed the resident had a pacemaker related to heart failure. The pacemaker was placed in 1990 with
interventions that included Monitor vital signs as ordered/per facility protocol and record. Notify MD of
significant abnormalities.
Record review of Resident #13's Order Summary Report, dated 03/28/23, revealed there were not orders
for the pacemaker or parameters.
During an interview on 03/29/23 at 1:55 p.m., the DON stated Resident #13 did have a pacemaker. The
DON stated it had been a struggle to get the pacemaker information from the family or previous providers.
The DON stated the previous primary care physician did not have the pacemaker information and the
pacemaker was over [AGE] years old. The DON stated it had been difficult to get the resident into a primary
care provider due to him not having his pacemaker information. They had an appointment

Record review of the Facility's policy titled Pacemaker, Care of a Resident with a: the purpose of this
procedure is to provide information about and guidance for the care of a resident with a pacemaker.
Definition 1. an abnormality in the conduction of electrical impulses that affects the normal heart rate
rhythm is an arrhythmia. 2. The two most common arrhythmias that require a pacemaker are sinus
bradycardia and heart block. A. Sinus bradycardia occurs when the sinoatrial node is not functioning
properly, resulting in an abnormally slow heart rhythm .3. Pacemakers are electronic devices that artificially
stimulate the heart muscles with electrical impulses when the heart rhythm is too slow ([NAME] cardia). 4.
pacemakers are programmed to sense the heart and respiratory rate and to administer electrical pulses
when the heart rate falls below a set threshold. 5. pacemakers can be permanently implanted or temporary
. Complications: 1. if the pulse generator or battery fails, or if the leads become displaced the pacemaker
will not work properly, leading to [NAME] arrhythmias. Monitoring: 1. monitor the resident for pacemaker
failure by monitoring for signs and symptoms of [NAME] arrhythmias .3. The pacemaker battery will be
monitored remotely through telephone or an Internet connection. The resident cardiologist will provide
instructions on how and when to do this. 4. The Resident will have an EKG as ordered, to monitor for
changes in the heart's electrical activity. 5. Make sure the resident has a medical identification card that
indicates he or she has a pacemaker. The medical record must contain this information as well. When the
resident is transferred to another facility, this information must be communicated to the receiving facility in
the discharge summary. 6. Pacemaker batteries and generator will be replaced by a cardiologist as needed,
usually every five to eight years. Documentation: 1. for each resident with a pacemaker, document the
following in the medical record and on a pacemaker identification card upon admission: a. the name,
address and telephone number of the cardiologist; b. type of pacemaker; c. type of leads; d. manufacturer
and model; e. serial number; f. date of implant; g. paced rate;

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 #32) reviewed for incontinent care, in that:
CNA C did not use proper technique when providing incontinent care and catheter care to Resident #32.
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 #32's face sheet, dated 03/31/2023, revealed an initial admission date of
09/21/2022 with diagnoses that included neuromuscular dysfunction of bladder (occurs when a person's
nerves, spinal cord, or brain have problems sending electrical signals to the bladder. This causes difficulty
with urination).
Record review of Resident #32's MDS, a Quarterly assessment dated [DATE], revealed under Section C
her BIMS score was 03 out of 15, which indicated severe impaired cognition. Review of Section G
functional status revealed the resident required extensive assistance and 2 plus person assist with toileting.
Review of Section H urinary continence and bowel continence showed the resident had an indwelling
catheter (a closed sterile system with a catheter and retention balloon that is inserted either through the
urethra or suprapubically (above the pubic area) to allow for bladder drainage).
Record review of Resident #32's care plan, dated 01/18/2023, revealed Indwelling Catheter and bowel
incontinence with intervention to provide pericare after each incontinent episode.
During an observation on 03/02/2023 at 4:07 p.m. CNA C provided incontinent care to Resident #32.
Resident #32 had indwelling catheter through the urethra. CNA C washed her hands and explained the
care she would be providing to Resident #32. CNA C cleansed Resident #32's anterior (front) perineal area
and between the vaginal labia wiping front to back direction. CNA C then cleaned the posterior (back)
perineal and buttocks area wiping in a back to front direction stopping at the perineum (area between the
vaginal opening and anus) area each time.
During an interview on 03/29/2023 at 12:11 p.m. CNA C stated she wiped the resident in a downward
motion, from back to front, and swirl at the end. CNA C stated they 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.
During an interview on 03/02/2023 at 4:32 p.m. the DON stated CNA C had been a CNA for about a year.
The DON stated she would need to check into how they were being trained with the turning motion. The
DON stated regardless peri care should always be a front to back wiping motion to prevent moving germs
towards the catheter or vaginal area.

The facility failed to ensure food items in the freezer were dated, labeled, and sealed appropriately.
These failures could affect residents who received their meals from the facility's only kitchen, by placing
them at risk for food-borne illness, and food contamination.
Findings included:
Observations of the facility's kitchen freezer on 03/28/2023 at 10:35 a.m. revealed the following items were
not labeled and or dated:
- One bag of approximately 25 brown round items approximately 1.68 inches in diameter, identified as
meatballs by the CDM, partially open, not completely sealed, (exposing the items previously identified as
meatballs to air), unlabeled and undated.
- One 5lb bag of item labeled heat and serve brats ,(a type of link like sausage also called bratwurst),
approximately 50 percent full, unlabeled, and undated , with a white substance identified as ice (by the
CDM), covering the items in the bag.
- One unlabeled and undated gallon size plastic bag, enclosing items identified by the CDM as maybe
tamales, with a white powdery substance identified as ice inside the bag.

discarded to prevent compromising the Residents well- being. She further stated items in the freezer should
have been closed, labeled, and dated but were not as they should have been. She threw them away after
viewing them the items with Surveyor . According to the DM all kitchen staff was responsible for ensuring
kitchen items were labeled and dated.
In an interview on 03/30/23 11:04 a.m., the DM stated, the food items,stacked in front of the fans within the
freezer, made the ice get in the bags I think . The DM further stated, Someone could get sick if they were
served the food with the ice on it, and went on to say we would not serve the stuff that had the ice on it, but
it should have been thrown away. The DM also stated, we should have had them in bags and labeled with
name and date on each one when referring to the items viewed in the kitchen with the Surveyor.

Level of Harm - Minimal harm
or potential for actual harm
Make sure that the nursing home area is safe, easy to use, clean and comfortable for residents, staff and
the public.
Based on observation and interview the facility did not provide a safe, functional, sanitary comfortable,
environment for residents, staff, and the public for 1 of 1 laundry facilities reviewed for environment, in that:
Residents Affected - Few
1. Inside 2 of 2 dryers contained multiple area of unknown dark hard substance and medical tape.
2. 2 of 2 dryers had a thick layer of lint in the lint trap.
This failure could place residents at risk of a diminished quality of life due to exposure to an environment
that is uncomfortable, unsafe, and unsanitary.
The Findings Were:
During an observation on 03/31/23 at 11:45 a.m. revealed the facility's laundry room contained two dryers.
The lint trap under both dryers was covered in a thick layer of lint. Some lint had fallen on the bottom of the
dryer. A note was hanging on the side of the dryer reflecting to clean the lint trap every hour. The inside of
one dryer contained 8 different areas of an unknown dark brown hard substance and medical tape stuck
inside. The 2nd dryer had 5 areas of an unknown dark brown hard substance. The floor was dirty. The
folding table had a package of crackers on it and a cup of condiments. The bottom shelf of the laundry
folding table had unknown white substance. The top of one dryer had a toolbox and cardboard box stacked
on top of each other and wedged in between the top of the dryer and ceiling.
During an interview with the Housekeeping Supervisor on 03/31/23 at 12:07 p.m. she stated the dryer vents
should not contain that much lint and should have been cleaned out so they would not catch fire. She stated
they did not have a log to track when the lint was cleaned out. She stated the brown stains inside the dryers
were melted plastic. She stated the substance should be removed to prevent it from ruining any residents'
clothes.
No policy was provided.
