Level of Harm - Minimal harm
or potential for actual harm
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
observation, interview and record review the facility failed to ensure that a resident who needed respiratory
care, including tracheostomy care and tracheal suctioning, was provided such care, consistent with
professional standards of practice, the comprehensive person-centered care plan, and the residents' goals
and preferences for one (Resident #2) of eight residents reviewed for respiratory care. The facility failed to
ensure Resident #2's breathing mask (medical device used to deliver medication in a form of mist) was
stored properly when not in use on 10/08/2025. This failure could place residents at risk for respiratory
infection and not having their respiratory needs met.Findings included: Record review of Resident #2's Face
Sheet, dated 10/08/2025, reflected a [AGE] year-old male admitted to the facility on [DATE]. The resident
was diagnosed with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (a chronic inflammatory lung disease that
causes obstructed airflow from the lungs). Record review of Resident #2's Quarterly MDS Assessment
(assessment used to determine functional capabilities and health needs), dated 09/24/2025, reflected the
resident was cognitively intact (resident capable of normal cognition and needs little support) with a BIMS
(screening tool used to assess cognitive status) score of 15. The Quarterly MDS Assessment indicated the
resident had chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. Record review of Resident #2's Comprehensive Care
Plan, dated 10/08/2025, reflected the resident had chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and one of the
interventions was give aerosol (substance released in fine mist) or bronchodilators (medication that caused
widening of the air passages) as ordered. Record review of Resident #2's Physician's Order, dated
06/13/2025, reflected Ipratropium-Albuterol Solution 0.5-2.5 (3) MG/3ML 3 milliliter inhale orally every 6
hours as needed for SOB or Wheezing via nebulizer. During an observation and interview on 10/08/2025 at
8:47 AM revealed Resident #2 was in his bed, awake. It was observed that a nebulizer was on top of the
resident's shelf with a breathing mask connected to it. The breathing mask was not bagged. The resident
said he would have the breathing treatment if he was having shortness of breath. He said nurses would
give it to him and would come back to take it off. When asked when was the last time he had the breathing
treatment, the resident said he could not remember. During an observation and interview on 10/08/2025 at
9:17 AM, LVN D stated if the resident was not using the breathing mask, it should be inside a clean plastic
bag to ensure cleanliness for the next use. She said she did not notice that Resident #2's breathing mask
was not bagged when she did her morning round. She said did not know when was the last time the
resident used the breathing mask and said, if she was not mistaken, the order for his breathing treatment
was if needed. She went inside the resident's room and disconnected the breathing mask and said she
would get another breathing mask and would put it in a bag. She said she was one of the responsible in
ensuring the breathing mask was bagged. In an interview on 10/08/2025 at 11:35 AM, ADON A stated the
breathing mask should be stored properly to prevent cross contamination and respiratory infections. He
said whoever administered the breathing treatment was responsible for cleaning it and storing it in a
