Residents Affected - Some
The 2:00 p.m. - 10:00 p.m. shift failed to consistently provide showers/bed baths and daily clothing changes for Resident #1, who was physically impaired, for at least two months and resulted in body odors.

Record review of the facility's undated document titled, Shower Schedule revealed Resident #1's was to receive showers on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays during the 2:00 p.m. - 10:00 p.m. shift. Record review of Resident #1's computer generated shower documentation for 07/01/2024 - 08/31/2024 revealed the following days were checked Yes for bathing: 07/08/2024, 07/30/2024, 07/31/2024, 08/03/2024, and 08/16/2024. Record review of Resident #1's shower sheets for July 2024, August 2024, and September 2024 revealed there were no sheets available for review prior to 09/05/2024. In an interview with the Administrator on 09/05/2024 at 12:35 p.m., she stated Resident #1 had missed a few shower days, but staff gave the showers the next day. She stated Resident #1's family voiced a few grievances about missed showers, but the showers were given on the next day. She said to her knowledge, Resident #1 never missed a shower that was not given the next day. She stated she could not give the dates Resident #1's family voiced grievances because she had already erased the text messages. Observation and interview with Resident #1 on 09/05/2024 at 1:15 p.m. revealed she was in bed, asleep. She woke up to verbal stimuli but was still very sleepy. Resident #1 was alert and oriented and did not exhibit any odors. She stated she did not always get her shower or bed bath like she was supposed to. She said her family spoke to staff about her showers and not changing her clothes because they said she sometimes had an odor. She stated she did not really know how she felt about not getting showers/bed baths and not having her clothes changed daily. Observation of Resident #1's room at that time revealed there was a sign over her bed that read, Please Change Clothes Every day!!! RP's name and number. Shower Days: M-W-F 2-10 Shift!!! In an interview with LVN C on 09/05/2024 at 1:37 p.m., she stated she always worked the 6:00 a.m. - 2:00 p.m. shift. She stated they have designated CNAs, so they know each other's routines. She said as a nurse, she did rounds room to room, she knew if her residents had been touched (been given showers or provided incontinent care). She said Resident #1 was alert and oriented x 3-4 (indicates level of awareness and orientation. 3 is the highest level of orientation but situational questions would make highest level 4). She said Resident #1 made her needs known, but you would have to ask yes and no questions. She said Resident #1 knew what was going on. She said Resident #1 was bed bound since she had a stroke (when blood flow to the brain is disrupted). She said Resident #1 did not refuse care and should have showers on the 2:00 p.m. - 10:00 p.m. shift. She said sometimes, her 6:00 a.m. - 2:00 p.m. CNA took the initiative and gave Resident #1 a shower on their shift. She said when Resident #1 missed a shower day, she had a urine or yeasty smell. She said Resident #1's left hand was closed (contracted) due to stroke, so staff must get inside her hand and clean it. She said Resident #1 did not get showers on the 2:00 p.m. - 10:00 p.m. shift often. She stated the staff did document showers on shower sheets and they were supposed to document when any resident refused. She said if

a resident refused a shower, the nurse went and talked to the resident to see if they could get them to take the shower. She stated Resident #1's family complained about the odors several times within the past month or so and they have been very patient. She said on her hall (100 hall), there should be five showers on each shift. She stated her CNA (on the 6:00 a.m. - 2:00 p.m.), CNA D has been giving Resident #1 showers because they tried to accommodate Resident #1's family as best they could, but it was not fair that the 2:00 p.m. - 10:00 p.m. shift had not been held accountable. She said they all had a job to do and some days, it was hard to get Resident #1 her shower and she had to miss those days. She stated Resident #1's family requested that staff change her gown daily and the 2:00 p.m. - 10:00 p.m. shift should be the ones to change her gown on her off-shower days. She said they let the next shift know during report if they did Resident #1's shower or if they changed her gown. In an interview with CNA D on 09/05/2024 at 1:50 p.m., she stated she always worked the 6:00 a.m. - 2:00 p.m. shift. She stated Resident #1 was easy to get along with. She said Resident #1 was alert and you only had to ask her what she wanted. She stated she gave Resident #1 showers/bed baths on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays during her shift because the family had concerns about the 2:00 p.m. - 10:00 p.m. shift not doing it. She said when she works on those days, she does Resident #1's showers. She said she did not know if any other CNAs from the 6:00 a.m. - 2:00 p.m. shift did Resident #1's showers when she was on at work. She said Resident #1 never refused care because she liked to be clean. She said Resident #1 got bed baths. She said she could tell Resident #1 was not getting showers because of the yeast odor from her body. She said she smelled the odor after she returned to work after Resident #1's scheduled shower days. She said depending on who worked the hall, Resident #1's shower would not get done. She said the other shift was not doing what they were supposed to do and Resident #1's family had been patient. She said when she arrived to work in the mornings, she could tell if Resident #1 had been touched or not because she had the same thing on when she left day before. She said frequently when Resident #1 did not get changed (clothing change), she found feces stains and odors on her gown and her family complained. She said she confronted staff from the 2:00 p.m. - 10:00 p.m. shift and they said they did bathe Resident #1. She said she knew they were not bathing Resident #1 because of how she smelled. She said she did not know if the other shift documented the showers/bed baths. She said LVN C often tells the other shift they had to bath Resident #1. She said her shift was not responsible for changing Resident #1's gown daily. In an interview with the Administrator and the DON on 10/04/2024 at 1:01 p.m., the Administrator stated Resident #1's family complained twice about her not receiving showers/bed baths and not being changed (clothing changes), but she received the showers/bed baths and had her clothes changed right after the Administrator was notified by the family. The Administrator said they investigated the complaints on both occasions, which prompted them to do a PIP related to showers and clothing changes. The Administrator said the PIP was initiated after the state surveyor's visit on 09/05/2024. She said based on the PIP, they started making staff document showers on shower sheets because the shower documentation staff entered into the computer system did not always capture that showers were given. The Administrator stated after the state brought the issue to their attention on 09/05/2024, they started doing shower sheets. The Administrator said after each shower, the shower sheet and validated and signed by the charge nurse, then given to the unit manager. The Administrator said the shower sheets are brought to the morning meetings and discussed to ensure each resident received their scheduled showers. The Administrator said each department head was assigned to a hall, so each resident had a guardian angel to check on them daily and share their concerns. The DON said Resident #1's family never voiced concerns opposing bed baths instead of showers. The Administrator said not having showers/bed baths

She stated since she started having problems with Resident #1 getting showers and clothing changes several months ago (she could not recall exactly when the problem started), she and other family members started visiting at night as well. She stated the problem was on the 2:00 p.m. - 10:00 p.m. shift. She stated CNA D from the 6:00 a.m. - 2:00 p.m. shift treated Resident #1 very well and made sure she had showers on that shift. She stated Resident #1 did not get showers unless CNA D gave them. She stated she sent the Administrator a text message on 07/30/2024, saying Resident #1 had not been bathed and she had on the same gown for multiple days. She stated she could smell Resident #1 as she entered her room when she did not receive showers. She stated Resident #1 was found with the same gown on for multiple days several times, so she started taking pictures of her. She said some of the dates included: 08/03/2024 08/04/2024, 08/16/2024 - 08/17/2024, 09/06/2024 - 09/08/2024, and 09/14/2024 - 09/16/2024.
