her bedside table. Her call light, which was a red string connected to a light switch, was clipped to the
room-dividing curtain, about 3-4 feet out of reach.

Resident #1 was not available for interview, during the time of this survey, due to severe cognitive
impairement and extensive hearing loss.
In an observation on 9/28/23 at 7:34 PM it was noted that Resident #7's call light was clipped to the
underside of her pillow.
In an interview on 9/28/23 at 7:36 PM Resident #7 stated that she could not see the call light string and it
would have to be in a position where she could both see and/or feel for it, or she would have to be verbally
guided, for it to be used. She stated that she knows how to use the call light, but unless she knows exactly
where it is placed, due to her poor eye sight, it cannot be used
In an interview on 9/28/23 at 7:42 PM the Administrator stated that all call lights should be in working order

Honor the resident's right to request, refuse, and/or discontinue treatment, to participate in or refuse to
participate in experimental research, and to formulate an advance directive.
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
interview, and record review, the facility failed to ensure all residents had the right to formulate an advanced
directive for 1 (Resident #10) of 12 residents reviewed for advanced directives.
Resident #10 had a DNR is her record that had information for only one physician in section F.
The facility's failure to ensure the accuracy of a residents advanced directive such as a DNR (Do Not
Resuscitate), recognized under State law (whether statutory or as recognized by the courts of the State),
relating to the provision of health care could place residents a risk for not receiving healthcare as per their
or their legal representatives wishes.
Findings include:
Resident #10
Record review of the face sheet dated 9-27-2023 in the clinical record for Resident #10 revealed a [AGE]
year-old female resident admitted to the facility originally on 5-29-2018 and readmitted on [DATE] with
diagnoses to include seizures (sudden, uncontrolled body movements and changes in behavior that occur
because of abnormal electrical activity in the brain, generalized anxiety disorder (a mental health disorder
characterized by feeling of worry, anxiety, or fear that are strong enough to interfere with one's daily
activities), dysarthria and anarthria (difficult or unclear articulation of speech that is otherwise linguistically
normal), dysphagia(difficulty swallowing food or liquids arising from the throat or esophagus), anorexia (an
eating disorder causing people to obsess about weight and what they eat), spastic quadriplegia cerebral
palsy (a form of cerebral palsy (a cognitive disorder of movement, muscle tone, or posture) that affects both
arms and legs and often the torso and face), malnutrition, (lack of proper nutrition), anoxic brain injury
(caused by a complete lack of oxygen to the brain, which results in the death of brain cells after
approximately four minutes of oxygen deprivation), multiple contractures (a condition of shortening and
hardening of muscles, tendons, or other tissue, often leading to deformity and rigidity of joints), pain, and
altered mental status. Under the section Advanced Directives Resident #10 was listed as a DNR.
Record review of the clinical record for Resident #10 revealed the last MDS completed was an annual
dated 7-27-2023 with a BIMS 0f 3 indicating she was severely cognitively impaired, and she required
assistance of one to two people with all her activities.
Record review of the clinical record for Resident #10 revealed a care plan with a last reviewed date of
7-27-2023 with the following:
Resident #10 had an order for Do Not Resuscitate (DNR)-Date initiated 5-30-2018

Section F: Directive by two physicians on behalf of the adult, who is incompetent or unable to communicate
and without guardian, agent, proxy, or relative.
Residents Affected - Few
Under Attending Physician there was a physician signature, printed name, date, and license number. There
was no second physician signature or information.
Section: Physician Statement also has no information for the physician signature or information.
Section: All persons who have singed above must sign below, acknowledging that this document has been
properly completed.
-there is no second physician signature.
During an interview on 09-27-2023 at 02:58 PM this surveyor contacted FM C/Power of Attorney for
Resident #10. FM C/Power of Attorney insisted this surveyor would have to talk with Family Friend D
concerning Resident #10's condition. FM C/Power of Attorney would not confirm any other information and
ended the phone call.
During an interview on 09-28-2023 at 11:19 AM the Administrator reported that she had just recently
performed and audit of all the DNR's and that they should all be correct.
During an interview on 09-27-2023 at 03:03 PM this surveyor contacted Family Friend D listed in Resident
#10's chart and FF D advised this surveyor that I called the wrong number. This surveyor verified the
contact information for Family Friend D was correct per the DON.
During an interview on 09-28-2023 at 02:21 PM LVN A (the nurse responsible for Resident #10 this shift)
reported that if Resident #10 was found without a pulse or not breathing, basically coding then LVN A would
start the code, send a staff member to check Resident #10's code status in the computer system, and if the
Resident #10 was a DNR then LVN A would stop the code. LVN A reported that she thought Resident #10
was a full code at this time but would have to check the computer to verify. LVN A checked the computer
and noted that Resident #10 was a DNR and again reported that if resident #10 was in a code situation
LVN A would start the code, determine the code status, then stop the code once the DNR status was
verified. LVN A was asked to review Resident #10's DNR which she pulled up in the computer and printed.
LVN A reviewed the DNR in the computer and LVN B (who was also present during the interview) reviewed
the printed form. LVN A reported that the DNR form did not have a second physicians' signature in the
section for two physicians' signatures and did not have the second physicians' signature on the bottom
section. LVN B also reported that there needed to be a second physicians' signature and the second
physician signature at the bottom of the DNR form was missing. When asked both LVN's stated that the
DNR was not valid and that if Resident #10 was to code they would start CPR. LVN A reported that if a
DNR was not completed correctly that staff could get into trouble, there could be a lawsuit, that it could
result in a resident not getting what they wished. They could get compressions (from the CPR process).
During an interview on 09-28-2023 at 02:43 PM the DON (with the Administrator present) reviewed
Resident #10's DNR and confirmed that the DNR was incorrect, that the physician did sign in the wrong
spot, and that Resident #10 was going to be a full code until a new DNR could be completed. The DON did
verify that they would contact FM C/POA and start the process to get a new DNR. The Administrator

reported if a DNR is not completed correctly then a lawsuit could happen and the DNR would not hold up in
court. The Administrator also reported that she felt that Resident #10's wishes would be honored because
FM C/POA was very specific that she wanted Resident #10 to be a DNR and that staff would review the
clinical record and the face sheet and note that Resident #10 was a DNR, that they would not review the
DNR itself for accuracy so Resident #10's and FM C/POA's wishes would be honored.
