record review and interviews the facility failed to ensure residents were informed in advance, by the
physician or other practitioner or professional, of the risks and benefits of proposed care, of treatment for 1
resident (Resident #50) of 6 residents reviewed for informed consents. The facility failed to ensure Resident
#50 was informed of the risks and benefits prior to being administered antipsychotic medications. This
failure could place the residents at risk of receiving medications with side effects they do not wish. Findings
include: Record review of Resident #50's undated admission Record reflected she was an [AGE] year-old
female admitted to the facility on [DATE] with diagnoses which included fracture of her neck, and psychotic
disturbance. Record review of Resident #50's admission MDS dated [DATE], reflected a BIMS score of 12
which indicated she had moderate cognitive impairment. Her Functional Assessment indicated she used a
walker or wheelchair and required minimal assistance with her ADLs Record review of Resident #50's care
plan, dated 6/05/25, reflected she had depression, Alzheimer's Disease, and was taking psychotropic
medications. Record review of Resident #50's physician's orders reflected orders, dated 6/04/25, for
Olanzapine Oral Tablet 5 MG (Olanzapine). Give 1 tablet by mouth at bedtime for mood. and Aripiprazole
Oral Tablet 10 MG (Aripiprazole). Give 1 tablet by mouth one time a day for Depression Record review of
Resident #50's June 2025 medication administration record reflected she began receiving Olanzapine Oral
Tablet 5 MG and Aripiprazole Oral Tablet 10 MG on 6/05/25. Record review on Resident #50's consents
reflected a consent for Aripiprazole Oral Tablet 10 MG for psychotic disturbance was signed by her
responsible party on 6/28/25. There was no indication of the responsible party giving verbal consent.
Record review of Resident #50's consents reflected a consent for Olanzapine Oral Tablet 5 MG for
psychotic disturbance was signed by her responsible party on 6/28/25. There was no indication of the
responsible party giving verbal consent. In an interview on 7/3/25 at 5:15 PM the DON stated the ADONs
were responsible for ensuring consents for antipsychotic medications were signed prior to the medication
being administered. She stated the risk of the resident receiving antipsychotic medications without being
informed of the risks, benefits, and side-effects of the medication could be the resident having unexpected
outcomes from the medication. In an interview on 7/3/25 at 5:30 PM the ADON stated consents for
antipsychotic medications needed to be signed prior to the resident receiving the first dose. She stated she
did not recall when Resident #50's consents were signed, but often times they got consent over the phone
from the responsible party and then had them sign the paperwork on their next visit. She stated the consent
should be dated the date a verbal consent was given. In a phone interview on 7/3/25 at 5:38 PM Resident
#50's Responsible Party stated they did not recall signing the consent for antipsychotic medications or
talking about it over the phone with anyone. They stated there was so much paperwork signed and so many
phone calls he may have given consent and not remembered it. He had no concerns about the resident
taking the medications because she had taken them before being admitted to the facility. On

stated if nurses were not able to obtain attending physician's orders for wound care the facility had in-house
standing treatment order dry dressing and should be uploaded in the resident's chart. ADON A reviewed
Resident #49's discontinued orders and stated in-house standing treatment orders were not put in the

Wound Care Physician. She stated she visited Resident #49, but did not document her visit. She stated she
would monitor her nurses when the nurses would ask her for wound care supplies, then she would
complete a supply count and the count wound be accurate. ADON A stated when nurses would ask her for
wound care supply, she would not question the nurses who the supplies were used for. ADON A stated she
never obtained a communication form from the admitting nurse who admitted Resident #49, and she did
not follow up because she was not aware of the wound. ADON A stated nurses should not measure the
wounds and should not stage the wounds because the measurements could be wrong. ADON A stated she
was not aware RN L staged and measured Resident #49's pressure wound. She stated the Wound Care
Physician was notified of Resident #49's pressure wound. However, she could not recall the exact date, but

stated the facility had standing treatment orders, but she could not recall if any orders were put in the
system. LVN M stated she did not put any orders in the system when she cleaned the wound. She stated if
it was not documented it did not happen and it was her mistake for not putting the standing treatment
orders in the system. She stated the process of when a new resident admitted to the facility the admitting
nurse should complete skin assessment, notify the ADON A, obtain orders and put them in the system. LVN
M stated prior to CNA J notifying her of the wound, she was never told or received any report from any staff
regarding the wound. She stated she never provided any wound care to Resident #49 during her shift until
the day CNA J asked her to put a new dressing on. She stated she completed a skin check on Resident
#49 and had not noticed the wound; however, Resident #49 would refuse to be checked. She stated it was
her mistake for not documenting the refusal. She stated the potential risk of not providing wound care
treatment would be infections. She stated it was not good quality of care. Interview on 07/02/25 at 1:27 PM,
CNA J revealed she could not recall the exact date, but she was providing Resident #49 incontinent care
when his wound dressing had come off. She stated prior to proving the incontinent care Resident #49 had
the dressing on his sacrum. She stated when the dressing came off, she notified LVN M and LVN M
cleaned the wound and put a new dressing on him. She stated that was the first time she was assigned to
Resident #49. She stated she was not aware of the wound until she provided incontinent care. Interview on
07/02/25 at 1:39 PM, ADON B revealed she was working when Resident #49 admitted to the facility. She
stated Resident #49 admitted to the facility with a wound on his sacrum and nursing staff were using the
standing orders to clean and cover the wound until he was seen by the Wound Care Physician. ADON B
stated the admitting nurse was responsible for putting in standing orders in the system and completing a
communication form to request wound care for residents to the ADON A. She stated the admitting nurse
failed to communicate to ADON A to put Resident #49 on the list to be seen by the Wound Care Physician.
ADON B stated LVN M had just resumed her job duty from being on leave and was completing skin
assessments on residents when she noticed Resident #49's wound. She stated LVN Y was the nurse
assigned to Resident #49 before LVN M returned to work. She stated LVN Y was providing wound care
treatment to Resident #49, but it was unknown if it was documented. She stated if the ADON A was not
notified of Resident #49's pressure wound then the Wound Care Physician was not notified. She stated the
potential risk of not providing any wound care treatment would be infection. Interview on 07/02/25 at 2:00
PM, the DON revealed her expectation for when a resident admitted to the facility was the admitting nurse
should complete a skin assessment. If a resident admitted with a wound, the admitting nurse should obtain
treatment orders either form the doctor, hospital records or the in-house standing orders and should be put
in the system. She stated the nurses should also complete a communication form and provide it to ADON
A, and ADON A would place the resident's name on the list to be seen by the Wound Care Physician. The
DON stated when Resident #49 was being provided with incontinent care, the

resident had a dressing on the sacrum, and it fell off. She stated the nurse put a new dressing on and
reported the wound to ADON A. The DON stated the admitting nurse for Resident #49 had not
communicated Resident #49 had a wound. She stated she was not aware Resident #49's wound was
staged and measured upon admission. She stated wound care treatment was provided to Resident #49; the
nurses were using the standing orders, but the standing orders were not put in the system. She stated she
was not aware there was no documentation in Resident #49's clinical chart. The DON stated she expected
her nurses to put physician orders in the resident clinical chart/system. The DON stated Resident #49's
wound was getting better and had no signs of infection. She stated her staff failed to put treatment orders in
the system and failed to communicate to ADON A. She stated the Wound Care Physician was not notified
until the ADON A was notified of the wound. She stated the potential risk would be infection. Interview on
07/02/25 at 2:06 PM with CNA N revealed she was the CNA assigned to Resident #49 when he was on the
100 Hall. She stated every time she would provide incontinent care to Resident #49, he had a dressing on
his bottom. She stated Resident #49 admitted to the facility with a wound. CNA N stated during the morning
shift, LVN M would change the wound dressing on Resident #49. She stated Resident #49 always had a
dressing on his wound. She stated the nursing staff were aware of Resident #49's sacrum wound. An
attempt was made on 07//02/25 at 2:33 PM to interview LVN Y by phone but was unsuccessful. Interview by
phone on 07/02/25 at 3:00 PM, the Wound Care Physician stated if a resident admitted with a wound, he
expected the Attending Physician or Nurse Practitioner to see the resident and write initial wound care
orders, and to add him as an attending. If the resident had hospital orders that included wound orders, staff
could follow those orders. ADON A would text him with a new resident's information prior to his next visit.
He did not give any standing orders for wound care due to the liability, but he would allow ADON A to start
treatment because he had worked with her for many years. He stated he was not aware of Resident #49's
wound until he saw him on 6/25/25. He stated all wounds were considered colonized with a bacterium of
some form, but that did not mean it was infected. If the wound was not healing, then it would be considered
infected. Resident #49's wound was healing so he did not consider it to be infected. Interview on 07/02/25
at 3:13 PM, the Nurse Practitioner revealed she was not made aware of Resident #49's pressure wound
when she visited the resident on 06/10/25. She stated she visited Resident #49 and completed an
assessment, but she did not inspect the resident's back because she was not aware of the wound. She
stated since she was not made aware of the wound no treatment orders were provided. She stated she
could not recall the exact date, but she was notified by the DON that Resident #49's wound had worsened
and that the Wound Care Physician had been notified and provided treatment orders. She stated when a
resident admits to the facility with a wound her expectations were to be notified and for nurses to obtain
orders. She stated if a resident had not been seen by the Wound Care Physician or the nurses were not
able to get ahold of the Wound Care Physician, the ADON normally would notify her, and she would provide
treatment orders. Interview on 07/02/25 at 3:51 PM, the Administrator revealed wound care questions were
more of a clinical nursing aspect, but his expectations were for the nurses to assess the wound and notify
the Wound Care Physician. The Administrator expected nursing staff to follow treatment orders and to
document any care that the resident was being provided with. Record review of facility policy Significant

**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
observation, interview, and record review, the facility failed to ensure residents received necessary
treatment and services, consistent with professional standards of practice to promote wound healing and to
prevent new pressure ulcers from developing for one of five residents (Resident #49) reviewed for pressure
ulcers.The facility staff failed to notify the Wound Care Physician of Resident #49's Stage 2 pressure ulcer
on his coccyx upon admission. Resident #49 was not provided with wound care treatment from 06/02/25 06/25/25 which resulted in resident's pressure ulcer worsening from a Stage 2 to a Stage 4. An IJ was
identified on 07/02/25. The IJ template was provided to the facility on [DATE] at 4:10 PM. While the IJ was
removed on 07/03/25, the facility remained out of compliance at a scope of isolated and a severity level
potential for more than minimal harm that is not Immediate Jeopardy, due to the facility's need to implement
corrective systems.These failures could place residents at risk for new development or worsening of
existing pressure injuries, pain, decreased quality of life, and hospitalization.Findings included: Record
review of Resident #49's admission MDS assessment, dated 06/09/25 and signed off as completed by the
DON on 06/15/25, reflected the resident was a [AGE] year-old male, who admitted to the facility from the

touching assistance with eating, and he had an admission weight of 128 pounds. The resident required
substantial/maximal assistance with toileting hygiene, and he was frequently incontinent of bowel and
bladder. The MDS further reflected the resident admitted to the facility with one Stage 2 pressure ulcer, and
he was supposed to have pressure ulcer/injury care and a pressure reducing device for bed. Record review
of Resident #49's Clinical Admission Initial Assessment, dated 06/02/25, completed by RN L reflected
Resident #49 admitted to the facility with a Stage 2 pressure ulcer that measured 3.0 cm x 5.0 cm x 0.0 cm.
Record review of Resident #49's Progress Notes written by LVN K, dated 06/02/25 at 9:50 PM, reflected the
following: Skin: Skin warm & dry, skin color WNL and turgor (skin's elasticity) is normal. Skin Issue: #001:
New skin Issue. Location: Coccyx (the final segment of the vertebral column). Laterality / Orientation:

seen on 06/25/25 by the Wound Care Physician. ADON A stated Resident #49 admitted to the facility on
[DATE] which was a Monday, and the Wound Care Physician would have visited Wednesday, and the
reason Resident #49 was not seen was because Resident #49 did not show up in the Wound Care
Physician's computer system, and the nurses were told to continue standing treatment orders. ADON A
stated if nurses were not able to obtain attending physician's orders for wound care the facility had in-house
standing treatment order dry dressing and should be uploaded in the resident's chart. ADON A reviewed

complete a supply count and the count wound be accurate. ADON A stated when nurses would ask her for
wound care supply, she would not question the nurses who the supplies were used for. ADON A stated she
never obtained a communication form from the admitting nurse who admitted Resident #49, and she did
not follow up because she was not aware of the wound. ADON A stated nurses should not measure the
wounds and should not stage the wounds because the measurements could be wrong. ADON A stated she
was not aware RN L staged and measured Resident #49's pressure wound. She stated the Wound Care

on leave when Resident #49 admitted to the facility, and she had returned to work on 06/09/25 morning
shift. She stated she could not recall the exact date, but it was the week when Resident #49 was seen by
the Wound Care Physician on 06/25/25 when she was notified of the pressure wound. She stated CNA J
notified her of the wound on Resident #49's sacrum area. When CNA J was providing Resident #49
incontinent care, Resident #49 dressing came off and CNA J needed her to put a new dressing on. She
stated she was not aware of the pressure wound. She stated she cleaned it and put a new dressing on. She
stated when she cleaned the wound it did not appeared infected, no drainage was noted and had no odor
to it. She stated she immediately went and notified ADON A. She stated there should had been orders in
the system but there were no treatment orders in the resident's clinical chart when she reviewed it. She
stated the facility had standing treatment orders, but she could not recall if any orders were put in the
system. LVN M stated she did not put any orders in the system when she cleaned the wound. She stated if
it was not documented it did not happen and it was her mistake for not putting the standing treatment
orders in the system. She stated the process of when a new resident admitted to the facility the admitting
nurse should complete skin assessment, notify the ADON A, obtain orders and put them in the system. LVN
M stated prior to CNA J notifying her of the wound, she was never told or received any report from any staff
regarding the wound. She stated she never provided any wound care to Resident #49 during her shift until
the day CNA J asked her to put a new dressing on. She stated she completed a skin check on Resident
#49 and had not noticed the wound; however, Resident #49 would refuse to be checked. She stated it was
her mistake for not documenting the refusal. She stated the potential risk of not providing wound care
treatment would be infections. She stated it was not good quality of care. Interview on 07/02/25 at 1:27 PM,
CNA J revealed she could not recall the exact date, but she was providing Resident #49 incontinent care
when his wound dressing had come off. She stated prior to proving the incontinent care Resident #49 had
the dressing on his sacrum. She stated when the dressing came off, she notified LVN M and LVN M
cleaned the wound and put a new dressing on him. She stated that was the first time she was assigned to
Resident #49. She stated she was not aware of the wound until she provided incontinent care. Interview on
07/02/25 at 1:39 PM, ADON B revealed she was working when Resident #49 admitted to the facility. She
stated Resident #49 admitted to the facility with a wound on his sacrum and nursing staff were using the
standing orders to clean and cover the wound until he was seen by the Wound Care Physician. ADON B
stated the admitting nurse was responsible for putting in standing orders in the system and completing a
communication form to request wound care for residents to the ADON A. She stated the admitting nurse
failed to communicate to ADON A to put Resident #49 on the list to be seen by the Wound Care Physician.
ADON B stated LVN M had just resumed her job duty from being on leave and was completing skin
assessments on residents when she noticed Resident #49's wound. She stated LVN Y was the nurse
assigned to Resident #49 before LVN M returned to work. She stated LVN Y was providing wound care
treatment to Resident #49, but it was unknown if it was documented. She stated if the ADON A was not
notified of Resident #49's pressure wound then the Wound Care Physician was not notified. She stated the
potential risk of not providing any wound care treatment would be infection. Interview on 07/02/25 at 2:00
PM, the DON revealed her expectation for when a resident admitted to the facility was the admitting nurse
should complete a skin assessment. If a resident admitted with a wound, the admitting nurse should obtain
treatment orders either form the doctor, hospital records or the in-house standing orders and should be put
in the system. She stated the nurses should also complete a communication form and provide it to ADON
A, and ADON A would place the resident's name on the list to be seen by the Wound Care Physician. The

Residents Affected - Some
resident had a dressing on the sacrum, and it fell off. She stated the nurse put a new dressing on and
reported the wound to ADON A. The DON stated the admitting nurse for Resident #49 had not
communicated Resident #49 had a wound. She stated she was not aware Resident #49's wound was
staged and measured upon admission. She stated wound care treatment was provided to Resident #49; the
nurses were using the standing orders, but the standing orders were not put in the system. She stated she
was not aware there was no documentation in Resident #49's clinical chart. The DON stated she expected
her nurses to put physician orders in the resident clinical chart/system. The DON stated Resident #49's
wound was getting better and had no signs of infection. She stated her staff failed to put treatment orders in
the system and failed to communicate to ADON A. She stated the Wound Care Physician was not notified
until the ADON A was notified of the wound. She stated the potential risk would be infection. Interview on
07/02/25 at 2:06 PM with CNA N revealed she was the CNA assigned to Resident #49 when he was on the
100 Hall. She stated every time she would provide incontinent care to Resident #49, he had a dressing on
his bottom. She stated Resident #49 admitted to the facility with a wound. CNA N stated during the morning
shift, LVN M would change the wound dressing on Resident #49. She stated Resident #49 always had a
dressing on his wound. She stated the nursing staff were aware of Resident #49's sacrum wound. An
attempt was made on 07//02/25 at 2:33 PM to interview LVN Y by phone but was unsuccessful. Interview by
phone on 07/02/25 at 3:00 PM, the Wound Care Physician stated if a resident admitted with a wound, he
expected the Attending Physician or Nurse Practitioner to see the resident and write initial wound care
orders, and to add him as an attending. If the resident had hospital orders that included wound orders, staff
could follow those orders. ADON A would text him with a new resident's information prior to his next visit.
He did not give any standing orders for wound care due to the liability, but he would allow ADON A to start
treatment because he had worked with her for many years. He stated he was not aware of Resident #49's
wound until he saw him on 6/25/25. He stated all wounds were considered colonized with a bacterium of
some form, but that did not mean it was infected. If the wound was not healing, then it would be considered
infected. Resident #49's wound was healing so he did not consider it to be infected. Interview on 07/02/25
at 3:13 PM, the Nurse Practitioner revealed she was not made aware of Resident #49's pressure wound
when she visited the resident on 06/10/25. She stated she visited Resident #49 and completed an
assessment, but she did not inspect the resident's back because she was not aware of the wound. She
stated since she was not made aware of the wound no treatment orders were provided. She stated she
could not recall the exact date, but she was notified by the DON that Resident #49's wound had worsened
and that the Wound Care Physician had been notified and provided treatment orders. She stated when a
resident admits to the facility with a wound her expectations were to be notified and for nurses to obtain
orders. She stated if a resident had not been seen by the Wound Care Physician or the nurses were not
able to get ahold of the Wound Care Physician, the ADON normally would notify her, and she would provide
treatment orders. Interview on 07/02/25 at 3:51 PM, the Administrator revealed wound care questions were
more of a clinical nursing aspect, but his expectations were for the nurses to assess the wound and notify
the Wound Care Physician. The Administrator expected nursing staff to follow treatment orders and to
document any care that the resident was being provided with. Record review of facility policy Significant

Residents Affected - Some
resident's health status, where this change: places the resident's life in danger. is associated with a serious
clinical complication, e.g., initial development of stage III or stage IV pressure ulcer. When any of the above
occurs the attending physician, the resident and/or responsible party and/or legal representative and/or
interested family member is notified. Document is made in the Nurses Notes and the Resident Assessment
Instrument, and the Comprehensive Care Plan is updated to reflect the changes This was determined to be
an Immediate Jeopardy (IJ) on 07/02/25 at 4:02 PM. The Administrator and DON were notified. The
Administrator was provided with the IJ template on 07/02/25 at 4:10 PM. The Facility's Plan of Removal for
Immediate Jeopardy was accepted on 07/02/25 at 6:32 PM and reflected the following: Date of IJ
Determination: 07/02/2025 Immediate Corrective Actions Taken Physician Notification for Identified
Resident As of 07/02/2025, the resident identified in the IJ was immediately assessed by the Director of
Nursing. The resident's attending physician and the Wound care Physician were immediately consulted,
and updated treatment orders were obtained to address the resident's wound and overall plan of care.
Chart Review for Timely Physician Notification A comprehensive audit of all admissions and current
residents with significant changes in physical status was completed on 07/02/2025 to ensure physician
notification occurred as required. Any instances lacking documented physician notification were
immediately corrected by contacting the respective physician and updating the medical records. Immediate
Staff Education On 07/02/2025, all licensed nurses received in-service training on: - Recognizing and
defining significant changes in resident condition. - The requirements for immediate physician consultation
upon identification of significant changes. - Accurate and timely documentation of physician notifications
and resulting orders. Staff sign-in sheets and education materials are maintained for verification. Process
Changes A Physician Notification Protocol has been implemented requiring nurses to notify the physician
within 1 hour of identifying a significant change in a resident's condition, including the development or
worsening of pressure ulcers. A physician notification from was created to document: -The date and time
change identification. -The date and time of physician notification. -Physician response and orders.
admission protocols were updated to require physician notification within 24 hours for all residents admitted
with pressure ulcers or other significant health conditions. Ongoing Monitoring The Director of Nursing or
designee will conduct daily audits of residents with significant changes in condition to confirm timely
physician notification and documentation. Weekly audits of 10% of resident charts will be performed for 3
months to ensure compliance with the physician notification protocol. Quality Assurance and Oversight
Physician notification compliance will be a standing agenda item at the facility monthly Quality Assurance
Performance Improvement (QAPI) meeting for at least 3 months. Audit results and corrective actions will be
reviewed by the Administrator and Medical Director. How the Plan Removes the Immediate Jeopardy
Immediate assessment and physician consultation for the identified resident ensures appropriate and timely
medical oversight, mitigating current risk. Staff education and protocol changes ensure future prompt
physician notification for any significant changes, reducing the risk of delayed treatment. Ongoing audits
and oversight confirm sustained complaint, preventing recurrence of the issue and ensuring resident rights
are protected. Date IJ was Corrected: We believed the Immediate Jeopardy was removed on 07/02/2025,
the date corrective actions were implemented. Ensuring Staff Not Present Received Training All nursing
staff who are not present on 07/02/2025 for the in-services training will receive a make-up in-service by the
Staff Development Nurse within 5 calendar days of returning to work, and before providing direct resident
care. Completing will be tracked on a staff education log. Implementation Date for Physician Notification

Ensure that feeding tubes are not used unless there is a medical reason and the resident agrees; and
provide appropriate care for a resident with a feeding tube.
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
observation, interview, and record review, the facility failed to ensure residents fed by enteral means
received the appropriate treatment and services to prevent complications of enteral feedings for 1 of 1
resident (Resident #61) reviewed for enteral nutrition. The facility failed to follow Resident #61's physician's
orders for enteral feeding. These failures could affect residents receiving enteral nutrition/hydration and
place them at risk of health complications and decline in health. Findings included:Record review of
Resident #61's Quarterly MDS, dated [DATE], reflected a [AGE] year-old female with an initial admit date of
01/30/25 and re-admit date of 06/10/25. Resident #61 had diagnoses of nontraumatic intracerebral
hemorrhage in hemisphere, subcortical (a type of stroke where bleeding occurs within the brain's white
matter, specifically in the area beneath the cortex of the cerebral hemispheres), gastrostomy status (refers
to the presence of a gastrostomy tube, an artificial opening in the stomach for feeding or medication
administration), diabetes mellitus (a group of diseases that result in too much sugar in the blood), and
dysphagia following cerebral infarction (a common and serious swallowing difficulty complication following a
cerebral infarction(stroke)). Record review also reflected Resident #61 could rarely or never be understood
so a BIMS score could not be attained. Record review also reflected that Resident #61 also received
nutrition via a feeding tube. Record review of Resident #61's care plan revised dated 06/10/25
reflected:Focus: Resident at nutrition and dehydration risk related to receiving feeding via G-tube
secondary to Dysphagia. Formula: Glycerna, may use Osmolite. Goal: Resident will have adequate nutrition
and fluid over the next 90 days. Interventions: Administer Tube Feeding as order by the MD. Check for
residual q shift or as the physician orders. Check for tube placement q shift or as ordered by physician.
Flush g-tube before and after meds as ordered by physician. H2O as ordered by the physician. Record
review of Resident #61's physician order dated 06/11/25 revealed every shift for g-tube every shift Glucerna
1.5 via g-tube @50 ml[BR7] [LO8] /hr, (may use Osmolite 1.5) x 22 hours (off between 12PM and 2 PM)
with water flushes 100 ml every 6 hours and every shift flush g-tube with 60 ml of H2O before and after
medication administration. Observation on 07/02/25 at 11:01 AM revealed Resident #61 lying in bed
watching television. Observation also revealed Resident #61's feeding pump was running at a rate of 60
ml/hr. Interview on 07/02/25 at 11:08 AM with LVN C revealed Resident #61's physician's order reflected
the enteral feeding pump should be set at 50 ml/hr. LVN C stated that the pump was running incorrectly at
60 ml/hr. LVN C said that the enteral feeding pump rate should match the physician's order. LVN C then
revealed the incorrect rate could create a risk of fluid overload which could then lead to aspiration, (which is
the inadvertent inhalation of substances like food, liquid, or other materials into the lungs), instead of being
swallowed properly. LVN C stated that it was his responsibility to verify residents' enteral feeding pump rates
were the same as the physician's orders when making rounds. LVN C said he should report it to the ADON
if he found a resident's enteral feeding pump was running at an incorrect rate. LVN C corrected the enteral
feeding pump and notified ADON A. Interview on 07/02/25 at 05:05 PM with ADON A revealed she
expected nurses to review the physician's order prior to entering the rate on the resident's enteral feeding
pump. ADON A stated that the nightshift nurse started the enteral feeding pumps, but she expected the
dayshift and evening shift to verify the orders when making rounds. ADON A said that the facility policy
stated that the enteral feeding pump rate should match the physician's orders. ADON A revealed that the
risk to the resident when the rate entered was more than the rate ordered was the resident's stomach
getting too full, weight gain, etc. ADON A stated that a nurse should follow

pump. ADON A stated that she was notified previously of the incorrect rate on Resident #61's enteral
feeding pump. Interview on 07/02/25 at 06:14 PM with the DON revealed that she expected nurses to follow
physician's orders when they set residents' enteral feeding pumps. The DON stated that it was the
responsibility of all nurses to ensure their residents' orders were entered correctly on the enteral feeding
pump and were checked by nurses when they made rounds. The DON said that the if a nurse found an
enteral feeding pump set incorrectly, the nurse should notify their ADON. The DON revealed that residents
risked fluid overload and excess calories when their enteral feeding pumps were set too at a faster rate
than their physician's orders. Record review of the facility's Enteral Tube Feeding via Continuous Pump

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 assist residents in obtaining routine and
24-hour emergency dental care for one (Residents #5) of three residents reviewed for dental services. The
facility failed to follow up and schedule an appointment for resident to be seen by dentist so that she could
receive dentures. This failure could affect residents by placing them at risk for oral complications, dental
pain, and diminished quality of life. Findings included: Review of Resident #5's Quarterly MDS, dated
[DATE], reflected the resident was an [AGE] year-old female admitted to the facility on [DATE] with
diagnoses that included chronic kidney disease (longstanding disease of the kidneys leasing to renal
failure), non-Alzheimer's dementia (a group of neurodegenerative disease that cause cognitive decline, but
are distinct from Alzheimer's disease, diabetes mellitus (a group of diseases that result in too much sugar
in the blood), and schizophrenia (a disorder that affects a person's ability to think, feel, and behave clearly).
Record review also reflected a BIMS score of 7, indicating severe cognitive impairment. Resident #5's
functional status indicated she required supervision or touching assistance in her ADLs. Her Oral/Dental
Status did not indicate broken or loose-fitting dentures and no pain with chewing. Review of Resident #5's
care plan, dated 7/15/24, reflected resident had a mechanical soft, low concentrated sweets diet. Review of
Resident #5's care plan dated 05/06/25 also reflected: Focus-Resident has dental problems AEB:
Edentulous (meaning no teeth)Goal-Resident will have no adverse effects from dental problems through
the next review periodInterventions-Staff will assess oral status on admission, staff will provide oral care
daily, staff will refer any dental problems to social services for follow up. Review of Resident #5's Progress
Notes by the Social Worker, dated 05/21/25 at 1:07 PM, reflected SW reached out JPS and left voicemail to
return call for dental referral. Review of Resident #5's weights revealed that resident had no weight loss
since admission. Interview and observation on 07/02/2025 at 4:26 PM with Resident #5 revealed the
resident had no lower teeth or upper teeth. Resident #5 stated that she had no dentures nor teeth. Resident
#5 said that it bothered her having no teeth because she had to eat chopped meats and did not like eating
it that way. Resident #5 stated that she desperately wanted dentures. The resident did not say how long she
had been without teeth. Interview on 07/02/25 at 3:17 PM with the Social Services Director revealed that it
was her responsibility to schedule dental appointments for residents. The Social Services Director stated
Resident #5 was referred to a dental company by her hospital due to her income status. The Social
Services Director stated she had not gotten around to calling the referred dental company and asking what
documents needed to be sent over so that the appointment could be scheduled. The Social Services
Director said that it was on her to do list. The Social Services Director stated that she was aware the
resident and knew the resident had no teeth and was on a mechanical soft diet due to having no upper or
lower teeth. The Social Services Director revealed that when she assisted residents who need dentures,
she would check financing, check resourcing, then call the referred dental company. The Social Services
Director stated that in this case, she had not had time to call the referred dental company in the past five
weeks. The Social Services Director stated that having no teeth didn't affect Resident #5 because she has
seen Resident #5 eat what she wants to eat. Interview on 07/03/25 at 12:05 PM with the Administrator
revealed that it was the Social Services Director's responsibility to follow up on dental referrals. The
Administrator stated if the Social Services Director did not follow up on referrals, it was ultimately his
responsibility to follow up on the referral but did not reveal this process. The Administrator said that the
importance of residents' dental appointments was so residents could enjoy their food and eating. Interview

food in accordance with professional standards.
Based on observation, interview, and record review, the facility failed to store, prepare, distribute, and serve
food in accordance with professional standards for food service safety. in the facility's only kitchen. 1. The
facility failed to ensure the refrigerator was maintained in a sanitary manner free from dark substances. 2.
The facility failed to ensure food items stored in the freezer were properly discarded. This failure could place
all residents at risk for food contamination and food borne illness. Findings included: Observation and
interview on 07/01/25 at 9:01 AM with the Dietary Manager revealed a dark substance on the floor of the
walk-in cooler. The dark substance was approximately 12 inches by 4 inches on the non-porous floor. The
Dietary Manager stated that the substance had built up over the years and would not come off the floor.
Therefore, nothing had been attempted in the past to clean the substance off the floor. The Dietary
Manager said that the substance on the floor would not affect the residents' health because it was not
touching anything. The Dietary Manager also revealed it was his responsibility to ensure the kitchen was
clean and sanitary. Observation and interview on 07/01/25 at 9:06 AM with the Dietary Manager revealed a
clear unlabeled and undated sealed plastic bag in the freezer was previously defrosted ground beef and
re-frozen. The clear bag had a puddle of frozen blood from being previously thawed and re-frozen. The
Dietary Manager stated that the previously defrosted ground beef should not have been in the freezer and
should not have been re-frozen. The Dietary Manager said that if the ground beef was cooked and served,
residents were at risk of food borne illnesses. The Dietary Manager revealed this meat had been put in the
freezer by a new cook who was not aware this could be harmful to the residents. The Dietary Manager
stated the new cook, who would not work the remainder of the week, had placed the thawed meat back into
the freezer on the previous Sunday when he had not worked. Attempts were made to interview the staff
member that placed the re-frozen meat in the freezer, but she did not work that week. The Dietary Manager
stated he had not seen the meat in the freezer. The Dietary Manager stated that he in-serviced staff every
Wednesday at 1:00 PM, and he would in-service his staff that afternoon regarding the issues found. The
Dietary Manager said that he expected his cooks to know how to store, label, and date and regularly made
rounds to ensure that items were not stored incorrectly. The Dietary Manager removed the previously
defrosted ground beef from the freezer and disposed of it. Review of the facility's undated Receiving and
Storage policy, reflected: Storage: All foods will be properly stored to preserve flavor, nutritive value, and
appearance and to protect against foodborne illness 1. b. Do not refreeze a thawed product - cook and or

Provide and implement an infection prevention and control program.
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 maintain an infection prevention and 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 1 resident (Resident #50) of 7
residents observed for infection control. Staff failed to use the appropriate PPE when providing care for
Resident #50 who was on EBP. This failure could place resident at risk of being infected with germs from
another resident. Record review of Resident #50's undated admission Record reflected she was an [AGE]
year-old female admitted to the facility on [DATE] with diagnoses which included fracture of the leg with
surgical repair, dementia, and kidney failure. Record review of Resident #50's admission MDS, dated
[DATE], reflected a BIMS score of 12, indicating she had moderate cognitive impairment. Her Functional
Status assessment reflected she required some assistance with her ADLs. Record review of Resident #50's
care plan, dated 6/17/25, reflected she was planned for right leg fracture, decreased ADL function, and
isolation precautions related to surgical wound. Record review of the facility's Infection Control/Antibiotic
Stewardship log revealed the facility had 14 residents on isolation for wounds, catheters, gastric tubes, and
IV access. Resident #50 was on EBP because she had wounds as well as a urinary catheter. Observation
on 7/01/25 beginning at 9:10 AM of the 100 and 200 Halls revealed seven residents with signage outside
their rooms indicating they were on EBP. Observation on 7/01/25 at 9:15 AM revealed Resident #50 had
signage on her door indicating she was on EBP. PPE was located in an alcove near her room. Observation
on 7/02/25 at 11:21 the COTA transferred Resident #50 from her wheelchair to her bed using a slide board.
The COTA was not wearing any PPE. Observation on 7/03/25 at 12:30 PM CNA-D and CNA-E transferred
Resident #50 from her bed to her wheelchair, without wearing any PPE, using the mechanical lift. In an
interview on 7/3/25 at 1:25 PM CNA-D stated she knew which residents were on isolation by the signage
outside their room. The sign advised her what level of PPE was required to be worn when providing care to
the resident. She stated she did not wear PPE while transferring Resident #50 because she did not
normally work on the floor, and she was unfamiliar with the residents of that hall and she just forgot. She
stated the risk of not wearing PPE was spreading infection from one resident to the other. In an interview on
7/3/25 at 1:45 PM CNA-E stated she did not notice the sign outside Resident #50's room, so she did not
use any PPE. She stated she was called to that hall from where she normally works, and she was not
familiar with the residents of that hall. She knew residents with the sign at the door meant she had to wear
a gown and gloves. In an interview on 7/3/25 at 2:15 PM the COTA stated she did not know what it meant
when a resident was on EBP. She stated she was aware of the signs on the resident rooms showing the
wearing of gowns and gloves. She stated she just did not wear it as the resident was in a hurry to get back
to bed. She stated the risk of not wearing the PPE was possibly spreading infections. In an interview on
7/3/25 at 2:20 PM CNA- F stated she did not know what EBP was, but she knew to wear a gown and gloves
with residents who had the sign outside their room. She did not know the risk of not wearing the proper
PPE. In an interview on 7/3/25 at 2:28 PM CNA-G stated EBP signs were placed outside the rooms of
residents they were supposed to wear a gown and gloves when they were providing care to them. In an
interview on 7/3/25 at 2:35 PM CNA-H stated she knew which residents were on EBP because the nurse
would tell them, plus there was a sign outside their room. EBP required a gown and gloves to be worn. In
an interview on 7/3/25 at 5:15 PM the DON stated EBP were put in place for any resident with a wound, IV,
or any tube that was inserted. She stated signs were placed outside the room of those residents, and PPE
was kept in an alcove on the hall. She stated the risk of not wearing the appropriate PPE was
