This survey cited 3 deficiencies, 3 of them serious (actual harm or immediate jeopardy). The full statement and the facility’s plan of correction follow, verbatim from the federal record.

F 0580 Level of Harm - Immediate jeopardy to resident health or safety Residents Affected - Some Immediately tell the resident, the resident's doctor, and a family member of situations (injury/decline/room, etc.) that affect the resident. **NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on observation, interviews and record reviews, the facility failed to immediately consult with the resident's physician and notify the resident representative when there was a significant change in the resident's condition or need to alter treatment significantly for one (Resident #1) of eight residents reviewed for notify of changes. -The facility failed to notify Resident #1's physician and responsible party when the resident showed signs of an altered mental status for at least 22 hours and was later diagnosed with severe sepsis at the local hospital. On 09/03/24, an Immediate Jeopardy was identified. The IJ template was provided to the facility on [DATE] at 5:45 PM. While the IJ was removed on 09/04/24, the facility remained out of compliance at a scope of isolated and severity level of no actual harm with potential for more than minimal harm that is not immediate jeopardy due to the facility's need to complete in-service training and evaluate the effectiveness of the corrective systems. This failure could place residents at risk of not receiving immediate medical attention and required notifications being made when there is a change in their condition., which could lead to worsening of conditions and serious injury or harm. Findings included: Record review of Resident #1's face sheet, dated, 08/30/24, revealed the resident was a [AGE] year-old male admitted to the facility on [DATE] with diagnoses that included: Paraplegia (paralysis of the legs and lower body), Osteomyelitis (a bone infection that can occur when bacteria or fungi spread to the bone), and Polyneuropathy (malfunction of many peripheral nerves throughout the body). Record review of Resident #1's admission MDS assessment, dated 07/11/24, revealed the resident had a BIMS score of 13 which suggested he was cognitively intact. Resident #1 was always incontinent of bowel and bladder. The admission MDS assessment reflected Resident #1 was able to make himself understood. Further review reflected Resident #1 admitted with stage 4 pressure ulcers and required IV medication and isolation for infectious disease. Review of Resident #1's care plan initiated on 07/12/24 reflected the resident was at risk for hospitalization r/t sepsis. Interventions included administer medications as ordered, observe for changes in level of consciousness, mental status, or orientation and report significant changes to provider as indicated .

F 0580 Level of Harm - Immediate jeopardy to resident health or safety Residents Affected - Some replaced due to not working properly. RP stated Resident #1 was very thin when he admitted to the nursing facility because he would be afraid to eat due to having a history of constipation, which started while at home. RP stated Resident #1 would be going back home with her once discharged from the hospital as he had been issued a notice that his insurance would no longer cover his stay at the nursing facility. In an interview on 08/29/24 at 12:57 PM, the DON stated Resident #1 admitted to the facility with infected wounds and had to be placed on IV abx and isolation immediately. The DON stated Resident #1 had only been admitted to the nursing facility for almost 2 months before receiving a notice of Medicare non-coverage and was due to discharge home with significant other. The DON stated Resident #1 was discharged to the local hospital on [DATE] instead due to AMS and smells coming from his wounds, and she did not feel it would be a safe discharge for him to go home. The DON stated it was first reported to her by RN C on 08/26/24 that Resident #1 had an AMS. The DON stated the MD was also notified by RN C and STAT orders for lab work was initiated. The DON stated Resident #1 was not ordered to be sent out to the hospital on [DATE]. In an interview on 08/29/24 at 12:57 PM, LVN A, who was a wound care nurse, stated she worked at the nursing facility since 01/01/24. LVN A stated Resident #1 was very tiny and had 1-3 wounds in his sacrum (base of spine) area that would heal and reopen depending on how the resident was positioned. She stated Resident #1 received wound care three times weekly . LVN A stated Resident #1 had a wound vacuum to assist with healing. She stated there was one time the wound vacuum stopped working during treatment and she was able to order a new one that was delivered the same day. LVN A stated there was an order in place to do wet-to-dry care in case the wound vacuum ever stopped working, so there was never a break in care. LVN A stated Resident #1's wounds covered a large surface area and had pockets that did not allow for complete visualization. LVN A stated Resident #1 admitted with spores and bacteria that caused him to need IV abx and to be placed on isolation. LVN A denied ever smelling Resident #1's wound; however, she stated there were times when the sponge from the wound vacuum would smell.

RN D stated Resident #1 did not complain about anything, slept most of her shift, and did not eat well which was not unusual. RN D stated she did not notice that Resident #1 had an AMS during that shift. RN D stated she returned to work on the morning of 08/27/24. RN D stated Resident #1's labs had come back by that time, and she reviewed them and sent them to the NP for MD. RN D stated the NP gave orders to start fluids and abx; however, just before she could get anything started, the facility made the decision to send Resident #1 out to the hospital. RN D stated when she went to check on Resident #1, he seemed off and was even yelling out for the nurse which was unusual because the resident never raised his voice. RN D stated when she helped reposition Resident #1, she could also smell his wound. In an interview on 08/29/24 at 02:25 PM, CNA E states she worked a double shift on 08/24/24 (Saturday) and worked with Resident #1.

F 0580 Level of Harm - Immediate jeopardy to resident health or safety Residents Affected - Some hallucinations were worse, and she reported it to LVN B. CNA E stated she did not work with Resident #1 towards the end of her shift and did not know how he was for the remainder of the day or if LVN B followed up on her concerns. In an interview on 08/29/24 at 03:16 PM, LVN B stated she worked at the facility for 3 years. She stated she worked double shifts (6a-10p) on 08/24/24 and 08/25/24.

LVN B stated she returned to the facility on [DATE] and Resident #1 was able to carry a normal conversation with her that morning and seemed fine. LVN B stated Resident #1 did not exhibit any hallucinations. LVN B stated by 7:30/8 PM she did rounds and closed Resident #1's blinds and he still seemed fine to her. LVN B stated CNA F and another aide reported to her around that time that Resident #1 had been hallucinating and seeing things. LVN B states she went back to Resident #1's room to provide care and to assess him, and Resident #1 did not say anything. LVN B denied initiating a conversation to see if the resident was hallucinating. LVN B stated she did not know how to assess for hallucinating because she could not directly ask Resident #1 if he was hallucinating. LVN B stated she did not report the aides concerns to the MD or DON and could not recall if she mentioned it to the oncoming nurse. LVN B stated any change in condition should be reported to the MD and reported at shift change. In an interview on 08/30/24 at 09:30 AM, RN C stated she worked at the facility for almost a month. She stated she worked overnight (10p-6a) on rotating shifts. RN C stated she worked overnight with Resident #1 on 08/25/24 leading into 08/26/24. RN C stated she did not recall LVN B reporting any significant information regarding Resident #1. RN C stated Resident #1's baseline was never normal anyway due to the resident admitting to the facility with multi-resistant organisms. RN C stated Resident #1 had to be on heavy abx via IV. RN C stated Resident #1 was always sensitive about lights and noises in his room. RN C stated early morning on 08/26/24 at around 3:30 AM, there was a significant change in Resident #1's condition. RN C stated during her rounds, Resident #1 got sick to his stomach, sweaty, and was stating that there was a man in the window. RN C stated she tried to reorient Resident #1 and comforted him. RN C stated she checked Resident #1's vitals and they were normal and there was no fever, which she thought was strange with the sweating. RN C stated she notified the MD right away thinking Resident #1 might have a UTI or was growing other bacteria as he had been off IV abx for about a week. RN C stated there was also a smell on Resident #1, but she was not sure if it was coming from his wounds or the wound vacuum. RN C stated the MD ordered labs and a consult with wound nurse. In a further interview on 08/30/24 at 10:04 AM, the DON stated it was the expectation for the nurses to report any change in condition, even if it was only reported by an aide and they did not observe it themselves, at least to the oncoming nurse for continued monitoring. The DON stated the risk of not reporting changes of condition could be not providing a resident appropriate care in a timely manner. In an interview on 08/30/24 at 10:26 AM, CNA F stated she worked with Resident #1 on 08/25/24 (6a-10p). CNA F stated Resident #1's RP was visiting with him on this day.

F 0580 Level of Harm - Immediate jeopardy to resident health or safety Residents Affected - Some stated she was notified around 5:00 AM on 08/26/24 that Resident #1 was having a change of condition that included hallucinating. The MD stated she gave an order for STAT labs. The MD stated hallucinating could have been indicative of worsening of wound or an infection. The MD stated the expectation was for the nurse to notify her as soon as the hallucinations were observed on 08/25/24 to prevent a delay in care; however, she stated her orders would have been the same. The MD stated she would not have sent Resident #1 immediately out to the hospital before collecting labs because it may have been an issue that could have been treated at the nursing facility. The MD stated it was not uncommon for residents to hallucinate with having something like a UTI and the hospitals sometimes prefer for the nursing facilities to manage such things in-house. The MD stated the risk of not immediately reporting the change of condition could be missing an infection that was too bad for the nursing facility to manage. Review of the facility's policy titled Change of Condition and Physician/Family Notification, revised 08/11/2020, revealed in part the following: Purpose: To ensure that resident's family and/or legal representative and physician are notified of resident changes that fall under the following categories: -An accident resulting in injury that has the potential for needed physician intervention. -A significant change in the resident's physical, mental, or psychosocial status. -A need to significantly alter treatment. -Transfer of the resident from the facility. Procedure: When the above situations exist, the licensed nurse will contact the resident's family and their physician. . An Immediate Jeopardy (IJ) was identified on 09/03/24 at 04:45 PM.

Findings are concerning for impaction. During an interview on 08/29/24 at 12:57 PM, the DON stated Resident #1 admitted to the facility with infected wounds and had to be placed on IV abx and isolation immediately. The DON stated Resident #1 had only been admitted to the nursing facility for almost 2 months before receiving a notice of Medicare non-coverage and was due to discharge home with significant other. The DON stated Resident #1 was discharged to the local hospital on [DATE] instead due to AMS and smells coming from his wounds, and she did not feel it would be a safe discharge for him to go home. The DON stated it was first reported to her by RN C on 08/26/24 that Resident #1 had an AMS. The DON stated the MD was also notified by RN C and STAT orders for lab work was initiated. The DON stated Resident #1 was not ordered to be sent out to the hospital on [DATE]. During an interview on 08/29/24 at 02:25 PM, CNA E states she worked a double shift on 08/24/24 (Saturday) and worked with Resident #1. CNA E stated she assisted Resident #1 with breakfast, and he was talking to himself and stated he could see a little boy in his room that was about to fall. CNA E stated Resident #1 refused to raise his head to eat. CNA E stated by lunch time, Resident #1's hallucinations were worse, and she reported it to LVN B. CNA E stated she did not work with Resident #1 towards the end of her shift and did not know how he was for the remainder of the day or if LVN B followed up on her concerns. During an interview on 08/29/24 at 03:16 PM, LVN B stated she worked at the facility for 3 years. She stated she worked double shifts (6a-10p) on 08/24/24 and 08/25/24.

LVN B stated she returned to the facility on [DATE] and Resident #1 was able to carry a normal conversation with her that morning and seemed fine. LVN B stated Resident #1 did not exhibit any hallucinations. LVN B stated by 7:30/8 PM she did rounds, and closed Resident #1's blinds and he still seemed fine to her. LVN B stated CNA F and another aide reported to her around that time that Resident #1 had been hallucinating and seeing things. LVN B states she went back to Resident #1's room to provide care and to assess him, and Resident #1 did not say anything. LVN B denied initiating a conversation to see if the resident was hallucinating. LVN B stated she did not know how to assess for hallucinating because she could not directly ask Resident #1 if he was hallucinating. LVN B stated she did not report the aides concerns to the MD or DON and could not recall if she mentioned it to the oncoming nurse. LVN B stated any change in condition should be reported to the MD and reported at shift change. During a further interview on 08/30/24 at 10:04 AM, the DON stated it was the expectation for the nurses to report any change in condition, even if it was only reported by an aide and they did not observe it themselves, at least to the oncoming nurse for continued monitoring. The DON stated the risk of not reporting changes of condition could be not providing a resident appropriate care in a timely manner. During an interview on 08/30/24 at 10:26 AM, CNA F stated she worked with Resident #1 on 08/25/24 (6a-10p). CNA F stated Resident #1's RP was visiting with him on this day.

CNA E said that Resident #1 refused breakfast because he wanted to wait for his [RP] to come feed him. CNA E said that Resident #1 took a couple bites of the food and finished his drink. CNA E said that it was her responsibility to document whenever a resident had a bowel movement. CNA E said that she could not remember if Resident #1 had a bowel movement that day or explain why it was not reflected in her documentation. Residents Affected - Some During an interview on 09/02/24 at 2:32 PM, RN C indicated that she worked 08/25/24 and 08/26/24, 10P 6A shift and was the primary nurse for Resident #1. RN C said during the 08/25/24 10P - 6A shift, Resident #1 yelled and screamed. RN C said that [Resident #1] had blood-tinged urine in his indwelling catheter, did not have a temperature, heart rate was over 100 beats per minute, but was consoled and reoriented. RN C said Resident #1 continued to shout towards the end of her shift. RN C said that she gave Resident #1 a sponge bath and thought she smelled a foul smell from the wound vac (to Resident #1 sacrum). RN C then said that she noticed a stool blob at [Resident #1] anus when she wiped, like [Resident #1] did not have a complete bowel movement and some stool was still trapped. RN C said that when she called the doctor to get an order for an UA (08/26/24 at 5:00 AM), she did not mention the incomplete bowel movement because she did not think it was an issue. RN C said that Resident #1 vomited a brown emesis (can be caused by internal bleeding in the stomach, severe constipation, or inflammation of the stomach lining) overnight on the 08/26/24, 10P - 6A shift. RN C said that she did not report Resident #1 threw up because it looked like a cupcake and she [RN R] did not believe it was a gastric bleed. RN C said that she did not know the last time Resident #1 had a bowel movement but remembered the CNA (unknown name and unable to describe) told her [RN R] that Resident #1 had a bowel movement during a shift but could not remember because the days blended. RN C said that the doctor also ordered STAT labs with the UA order. RN C said that the facility would get the STAT lab results on the same day or early the next day based on the time of day the lab was collected. RN C said that the lab results were available on 08/26/24 during the 2P - 10P shift. RN C said that the lab results could inform the doctor if the resident had an infection, diagnose diseases, or identify other issues, like a gastric bleed. RN C said she did not review the lab results or check if the doctor was notified when Resident #1 threw up brown emesis or if his confusion was related to an infection. During an interview on 09/02/24 at 2:47 PM, the ADON stated she was familiar with Resident #1. The ADON stated she was not informed of Resident #1 did not have a bowel movement or unrelieved constipation. The ADON said the CNAs should notify the charge nurse when or if a resident did not have a bowel movement during the shift. The ADON said she expected nurses to perform an abdominal assessment (listen to bowel sounds, feel the abdomen for tenderness or if firm), assess for signs of constipation, implement care plan interventions, notify clinical department heads (ADON/DON) of resident change in condition, notify the provider, and the RP. The ADON said that the risk if constipation was not treated could be hemorrhoids or a serious complication such as fecal impaction if hard stool backed up into the colon. During an interview on 09/02/24 at 3:22 PM, the DON said that she had in-serviced staff last month that anything that was different and out of the ordinary for a resident was a change in condition. The DON said that she expected nurses to monitor the resident's bowel movements for change in frequency and consistency. The DON said that the nurse should perform an initial assessment if a resident did not have a bowel movement for 2 - 3 days, decreased appetite, nausea, vomiting, and/or pain. The DON said an initial assessment for constipation would include an abdominal assessment that included visual inspection for the shape, abdominal distention, feel for firmness, localized tenderness, and listen with a stethoscope for slowed or absent bowel sounds that could suggest constipation.

The ADON said that the risk if constipation was not treated could be hemorrhoids or a serious complication such as fecal impaction if hard stool backed up into the colon. During an interview on 09/02/24 at 3:22 PM, the DON said that she had in-serviced staff last month that anything that was different and out of the ordinary for a resident was a change in condition. The DON said that she expected nurses to monitor the resident's bowel movements for change in frequency and consistency. The DON said that the nurse should perform an initial assessment if a resident did not have a bowel movement for 2 - 3 days, decreased appetite, nausea, vomiting, and/or pain. The DON said an initial assessment for constipation would include an abdominal assessment that included visual inspection for the shape, abdominal distention, feel for firmness, localized tenderness, and listen with a stethoscope for slowed or absent bowel sounds that could suggest constipation. The DON said that the nurse should check the administration record for PRN medications/treatments, implement nurse interventions per the care plan, notify the provider with their assessment findings, the resident response to interventions, and notify the family.
