Honor the resident's right to a dignified existence, self-determination, communication, and to exercise his or
her rights.
Based on observation, interview, and record review the facility failed to treat residents with respect, dignity
and care for each resident in a manner that promotes maintenance or enhancement of his or her quality of
life for 13 of 13 residents in the confidential group interview.
Staff used cell phones in residents' presence causing residents to feel disrespected.
Staff told residents to go to the bathroom on themselves and the residents would be changed later.
This failure resulted in a diminished quality of life for the identified residents and could affect additional
residents by causing a loss of self-esteem and increased isolation.
The findings included:
Interview on 05/16/23 at 10:19 AM during the confidential resident council meeting 13 alert, lucid residents
stated unanimously that staff were on the phone while providing care. One resident said a Medication Aide
or Nurse talked to their child while on their (the staff's) ear buds while pouring medications and it made the
resident uneasy about their medication. Another resident stated one of the African Aides talked to whoever
in that aide's native language for the entirety of the shower. The residents said it did not make a difference if
it was day shift or night shift or weekends. The residents stated it made them feel lousy and disrespected.
The residents reported because the staff were on the phone they had to wait forever for care. A resident
said the staff told residents to go to the bathroom on themselves and the resident would be changed later.
One resident said they saw this happen to a resident who asked to go to the bathroom but was unable to
transfer without help. A resident who was present said an aide told her to urinate on themselves three
evenings prior to the interview and it was gross. The residents were asked if surveyor could fix one thing in
the building what would it be, and all 13 residents stated not having the staff on their phone and/or ear buds
while providing care.
Interview on 05/17/23 at 11:47 AM the DON stated the management staff would peek in the facility at
nighttime every once in a while. She said she drove around the building, peeked in, and looked for if call
lights were going off, staff bunching up (standing in a group together and not working) and being available.
The DON stated once she got into the building for a check for smells, if snacks and ice were passed, and if
rounds were done. The DON said it would be hard to watch for staff to resident interactions because staff
would go on their best behavior when she (the DON) was present. The DON added that the ADONs had to
cover the night shift once in a while and they could supervise the halls at that time.

Interview on 05/18/23 at 11:57 AM the DON said her expectation on cell phone use was not to have the
staff using the cell phone while in a resident room at all. The DON said if the staff had to take a call they
could step into the 'cut out' (storage space on the hallway) or go to the break room. She said her
expectation was staff not be on social media while on duty. The DON said she did not want staff on their
phones while residents were in the shower, especially not hiding in the shower room having a long
conversation. The DON said she monitored for cell phone use by making rounds which was usually every
couple hours. The DON said she wouldn't like it if the staff were on the phone while they were taking care of
her and it would make her upset and mad and sad, that the staff did not have their full attention on her
during care. The DON said she was frustrated about the cell phone use because they had a major
in-service about cell phone use in the bathrooms. She said it occurred because of one of the resident
council meetings.
Observation on 05/18/23 02:56 PM revealed NA J in front of the nurse's station standing behind Resident
#32 on the phone.
Review of the Resident Council Minutes, dated 4/11/23, revealed 21 residents attended and they informed
the facility that the residents were not changed in a timely manner; and CNAs told residents to use
restroom in pull -up or brief and the CNA would change the resident later.
Review of the in-service dated 4/12/23 revealed: Residents are to be changed every 2 hours and as
needed. The staff could not tell residents to use restroom on themselves.
Review of the Resident Council Minutes, dated 5/3/23, revealed the residents communicated to the facility
that CNAs were always on the phone and have their headphones in.
Review of the in-services, dated 5/3/23, revealed phones are to only be used on break times and are to
only be out in breakroom or outside of the facility. No phones in common areas or res areas. Ear pods
/headphone are not to worn . We have to be able to focus on our jobs and be able to direct all of our
attention to the residents.

communicated the aide totally ignored Resident #4 and the aide said no, no go to the dining room. The
complaint form documented Resident #4 got upset. The follow up documented the aide was counseled that
if any resident asks to go to the restroom the aide needed to take the resident and not to ignore the
resident.

prevent accidents.
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
observation, interview and record review, the facility failed to ensure each resident received adequate
supervision and assistance devices to prevent accidents for 2 of 2 residents (Resident #5 and #310)
reviewed for accident/hazards/supervision, in that:

Review of Resident #5's ADL Flow Sheet on Transfers for 5/5/23 through 5/17/23 revealed Resident helped
stand without plopping nine times and Resident #5 did not help with the transfer 19 times.
Residents Affected - Some
Observation on 5/15/23 at 11:10 AM revealed Resident #5 needed help sitting up in bed. The aides helped
her sit up and CNA I set the wheelchair up at the end of the bed and locked the wheels. CNA H put the gait
belt around Resident #5. Both aides (CNA I and CNA H) hooked their arms under Resident #5's arms,
grabbed the back of the gait belt and helped Resident #5 stand. The gait belt slid up to the bottom of
Resident #5's shoulder blades. Resident #5 had difficulty staying in a standing position as her legs shook.
The aides assisted Resident #5 in pivoting and sitting in the wheelchair.

Residents Affected - Some
two-person transfer. She stated the resident must be weight bearing. The staff would sit the resident up, put
a gait belt around them, and the resident's feet should be on the floor. She stated staff could hook their arm
under the resident's arm if the staff's weight was on the gait belt and not used to pull someone up by their
arm. She stated that any time staff used their arms to hook under a resident's arms to transfer, they should
be using a gait belt for the transfer. The DON stated that all transfers should be done with a gait belt, so
they had something to hold onto if the resident fell. Regarding Resident #5, DON was informed of the
observed transfer in which the gait belt was not tight enough and the staff were pulling the resident by her
arms, and the observation of the resident's leg shaking while trying to bear weight. DON stated I don't have
her as a mechanical lift. I don't remember her being on a mechanical lift. She had been on therapy recently
She gets physical therapy right now.
In an interview on 05/17/23 at 12:00 PM, the DON stated that the facility determined the type of transfer by
whether the resident was an unreliable weight-[NAME]. She explained that if the resident could stand but
the staff knew the resident would drop in the middle of a transfer, they would assign the resident a
mechanical lift. She stated most of time we have therapy come and they determine who uses a mechanical
lift or sliding board, those kinds of things. If they come in with an order for non-weight bearing, we'll go by
the order, then if we're unsure of that we'll contact therapy. In the mean time we'll use a mechanical lift. We
have therapy assess them as needed. Surveyor requested the policy and any in-services on transfers
completed in the previous three (3) months.
In an interview on 05/17/23 at 01:08 PM, the DOR stated that regarding staff training she did transfers, any
specific resident needs which could be positioning or equipment. She stated when she trained staff to do
two-person transfers she wanted them to make sure the area was clear, use a gait belt, and make sure the
wheels were locked on whatever transferring to and from (wheelchair/shower chair, mechanical lift). DOR
stated she trained staff that during transfers the correct positioning for a two-person transfer was one
person in front and the second person to assist on the side, one person grabbed both sides in back, while
the other person grabbed in the middle of the back and the resident's open side. DOR stated she did not
train staff to do a hug transfer because they were unsafe for the staff and the resident. She stated if the
resident can hold the person's hug , it would prevent them from performing the task and if they were not
able to take hold of the staff's arms, she would expect staff to put on a gait belt and the resident to hold
onto the staff by their bicep . She stated that she did not like to transfer by the arms because the risk to the
resident could be dislocation of shoulder, discomfort, and it was not safe. She stated that long term
residents were reassessed at least quarterly and if something changed and nurses notified therapy her
department would reassess as needed. She stated that if a resident was not able to reliably bear weight or
not safe during a transfer (not able to follow commands or participate in transfer) they would be changed to
a mechanical lift only transfer status. DOR stated that she taught the CNAs how to do transfers especially if
it was a difficult transfer. She stated she thought her last staff in-service was in April or the week prior. She
stated she did one-on-one teaching with new residents, usually the in the rehab hall. Regarding the
two-person transfer with Resident #5 she stated she did not know where the staff would learn that kind of
transfer, and it seems that the gait belt was too loose. She stated that a gait belt would be snug and if the
resident did not like it the staff would need to explain that it would loosen when they stand. She stated
Resident #5 has a history of wanting to bear weight on her toes. She stated that Resident #5's legs shaking
could be a sign she was having trouble in therapy. DOR stated Resident #5 had been able to bear weight in
therapy and take a few steps, but she had gone back and forth with her progress.

Residents Affected - Some
transfer done with Resident #310 on 5/15/23, LVN E stated that Resident #310 was able to do sit to stand
transfers with assistance. He stated after he (LVN E) and CNA F got the resident cleaned up in the
bathroom and back over to the bed in his wheelchair, they got him some new non-slip socks and he had
him use his arms and push himself up to standing and then helped him to pivot over to the bed and sit, then
got him positioned comfortably on the bed. When he was advised of how the transfer was done from
surveyor notes, he stated, oh no and shook his head. LVN E then stated, and with no gait belt and shook
his head again. He stated that they should have used a gait belt and that a resident should never be lifted
by their arms in that manner. He stated that he knew better than to transfer a resident in that way especially
without a gait belt but that sometimes it did happen even though it shouldn't. He stated that he had received
the most recent facility in-service on transfers in April which included two-person transfers. He stated that
Resident #310 did have orders for non-weight bearing on his right leg due to his recent surgeries and he
(LVN E) had been educating him about using his call light for assistance as well as the proper way to do
transfers since he was admitted so he had no excuse for why he did the transfer incorrectly.
In an interview on 5/18/23 at 8:40 AM, the DON and Corporate RN stated the facility's competency
checklist on transfers for aides just had a line to address if the aide completed the appropriate transfer, not
the steps involved in the transfer.
Interview on 05/18/23 at 01:00 PM CNA H stated she did do the transfer with Resident #5 on Monday. She
stated she remembered grabbing the gait belt in the front and back but denied hooking her arms under the
resident's arms. When advised she did hook her arms under Resident #5's arms during the transfer, she
raised her hands in a 'hands off not arguing motion' and stated Resident #5 bears weight, and she didn't
notice her legs shaking. She stated that Resident #5 was able to push up from a seated position by herself.

on [DATE] with diagnoses which included cerebral palsy and lack of coordination. She was [AGE] years of
age.
Record review of Resident #1's MDS dated [DATE] indicated in part: Bladder and Bowel: Urinary
Continence =. Always incontinent (no episodes of continent voiding). Bowel Continence = Always
incontinent (no episodes of continent bowel movements).
Record review of Resident #1's care plan dated 08/15/2019 indicated in part: Problem: Resident has
bladder incontinence- Resident has bowel incontinence. Goal: The resident will remain free from
complications of urinary incontinence through the next review date. The resident will be continent during
daytime through the review date Interventions: The resident uses disposable briefs. Check and change
every 2-3 hours & PRN. Clean peri-area with each incontinence episode. Check @ least every 2-3 hours
and as required for incontinence. Wash, rinse and dry perineum. Change clothing PRN after incontinence
episodes.
During an observation on 05/16/23 at 11:44 AM CNA A performed incontinent care for Resident #1. CNA A
removed the resident's pants and brief. CNA A wiped Resident #1's rectal area with some wet wipes. The
wipes had some bowel movement on them. CNA A wiped the resident's rectal area again with wet wipes
and more bowel movement was observed which also came in contact with the CNA's gloves. CNA A then
removed the soiled gloves and under her soiled gloves, was another pair already on her hands. While
wearing the second pair of gloves, CNA A applied the new brief and assisted the resident with putting her
pants back on.
During an interview on 05/16/23 at 5:32 PM CNA A said after she had wiped Resident #1's rectal area she
had removed the first pair of gloves because she wanted to have clean gloves since they were considered
contaminated. CNA A said she had learned to double glove at the previous facility she worked at. CNA A
said she had been working at the facility for about a year now. CNA A said she was not sure if they could
use double gloves at this facility. CNA A said she should have removed her second pair of gloves before
she applied the new brief and assisted the resident with her pants. CNA A said she would usually wash her
hands when she removed her gloves because her hands could possibly be contaminated. CNA A said the
second gloves could possibly become contaminated and she should have not worn the second pair. CNA A
said due to her not having changed her gloves that could lead to cross contamination and possibly urinary
tract infections.
During an interview on 05/17/23 at 5:44 PM the DON said staff were expected to put on gloves if they were
going to provide care to a resident. The DON said staff were not allowed to double glove because it could
lead to cross contamination and infections. The DON was made aware of the observation of staff wearing
double gloves during resident care. The DON said that probably occurred because the staff was nervous
and perhaps went to back to old practice because they did not teach that here.
During an interview on 05/18/23 at 2:56 PM the staffing nurse said she trained staff regarding infection
control procedures. The staffing nurse said if a CNA provided incontinent care and after they wiped bowel
movement, they were supposed to change their gloves, wash their hands and apply clean gloves. The
staffing nurse said it was considered cross contamination if they did not change their gloves as they were
considered contaminated. The staffing nurse said the CNAs were supposed to wash their hands in between
glove change because their hands could be dirty. The staffing nurse said if staff used the same gloves that
could lead to an infection. The staffing nurse said staff were not allowed to double glove. The staffing nurse
said she did not know why the CNA had done that as they did
