Provide care and assistance to perform activities of daily living for any resident who is unable.
Level of Harm - Minimal harm
or potential for actual harm
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
observation, interviews, and record review, the facility failed to ensure residents who were unable to
conduct activities of daily living received the necessary services to maintain acceptable grooming and
personal hygiene for 2 of 8 residents (Resident #7 and Resident #40) reviewed for ADL Care.
Residents Affected - Some
1. The facility failed to provide Resident #7 with nail care, which resulted with some nails protruding past the
fingertip, some nails gagged, and 8 of 10 digits had collection of dirt, stain, or debris under the nail on
02/20/2024.
2. The facility failed to provide Resident #40 with nail care, which resulted with nails protruding past the
fingertip for all 10 digits. Resident's toenails on her left foot extended .5 an inch on two toes, which had
begun to split and curl on 02/20/2024.
This failure placed residents at risk of diminished quality of life, embarrassment, and self-consciousness of
their appearance.
Findings included:
1. Record review of Resident #7's AR, dated 2/20/2024, reflected a [AGE] year-old who was admitted to the

functions;) chronic diastolic heart failure (which led to decreased blood flow;) and, unspecified lack of
coordination (which was a medical code that denoted difficulties with body movements.)
Record review of Resident #7's Quarterly MDS, dated [DATE] reflected Section C., Cognitive Patterns,
indicated the resident had a BIMS Score of 15. A BIMS score of 15 indicated the resident was not
cognitively impaired. Section GG., Functional Abilities and Goals; Resident #7 required
substantial/maximum assistance for personal hygiene (which meant the helper did more than half of the
effort.)
Record review of Resident #7's CP reflected a [Focus] for the resident having had potential impairment to
skin integrity R/T fragile skin and anti-coagulation therapy, initiated 2/6/2023. The [Goal] was to be free from

Observations and interview on 02/20/24 at 02:46 PM with Resident #40 reflected 4 pieces of food on her
chest. Her gown, at the top of her chest, was greasy. Her fingernails, on both hands, were long and each
had a collection of dirt on the underside. Resident #40 thought it was time for her nails to be cut. She had
accidently scratched herself with her fingernails before and it was not pleasant. She stated, staff had not
been around to cut them for a long time. She denied any pain because of her fingernails.
Observations and interview on 02/20/24 at 03:26 PM with Resident #7's reflected his fingernails, on both
hands, were unevenly trimmed and gagged; Each fingernail, not including the thumbs, contained dirt on the
underside of the nail. 2 of his fingers on his right hand and 3 fingers on his left hand had red stains.
Resident #7 stated staff have not been by recently to trim my nails. The red stains on his fingertips were
smears of blood that remained after he picked at small sores on his right and left arms. He denied any pain.
Observation and interview on 02/21/24 at 07:28 AM with Resident #40 reflected her fingernails, on both
hands, were long and each had a collection of dirt on the underside. The skin on her right foot was dry. The
skin on her left foot was dry and 3 of her toenails were long enough to curl at the end. Resident #40 stated
the people who came to look at her feet had not been by to see her in a while. She denied pain associated
with her fingernails or her toenails.
Observations and interview on 02/21/2024 at 9:37 AM with Resident #7's reflected his fingernails, on both

on 02/21/24 at 07:28 AM; The skin on her right foot and left foot was dry and 3 of her toenails on her left
foot were long enough to curl at the end. She felt better about herself, and her appearance, with her nails
done.
Interview and observation on 02/22/24 at 2:10 PM with LVN Z revealed Resident #7 received medication
and cream for his arms because he itched, and he scratched his arms often. LVN Z visually inspected
Resident #7s fingernails during the interview, who agreed Resident #7 needed nail care; She stated she
would get someone to provide his nail care.
Interview and observation on 02/23/24 at 8:34 AM with Resident #7 revealed his nails had been filed even
but were still dirty with red stains. He had his itch cream on his bedside table.
Interview on 2/23/2024 at 2:28 PM with CNA O revealed nail care was important for the residents because
residents with long, or gagged, fingernails had a greater risk of scratching themselves, as well as
scratching an employee. Long nails, or gagged nails, caused deep scratches and cuts, especially those
residents with fragile skin. When she observed fingernails past the length of the fingertip, or gagged nails,
she reported those concerns to the charge nurse. If the nails were dirty, CNA O cleaned them with warm
soapy water and a nail brush, to prevent the spread of infection. The CNAs filled out a skin condition form
during a resident's shower/bath, which had an area to check off for toenail care. The forms were provided to
the charge nurse for review and assessment. Residents identified having long toenails were treated by the
licensed nursing staff, or they would schedule a podiatry appointment.
Interview on 2/23/2024 at 2:50 PM with LVN Y revealed it was important to keep resident's fingernails
trimmed, and cleaned, to protect from cuts, bleeding, and the spread of infections. CNAs were trained to
observe and report all residents who required fingernail care as well as documenting the need for toenail
care on the resident's shower sheet. If a resident needed nail care the licensed nursing staff would assess,
treat, or call for a podiatry consult.
Interview, observation, and record review on 2-23-2023 at 4:00 PM with the ADON A revealed nail care was
important to avoid scratches, scrapes, and reduce the spread of infection. The ADON stated the procedure
to identify the need for nail care was for CNAs to observe and identify the need for nail care and to and
report those needs to the charge nurse. As well, CNAs were trained to observe, and report, the need for
toenail care on the resident's shower sheet. The ADON A was provided Resident #40's last three shower
sheet, dated 2/13/2024, 2/17/2024, and 2/20/2024. Each shower sheet indicated Resident #40 had long
toenails. The ADON made a visual inspection of Resident #40's toenails, who stated Resident #40 required
toenail care, they needed to be trimmed; The ADON made a visual inspection of Resident #7's fingernails,
who stated Resident #7 required more fingernail care, they needed to be cleaned. The ADON stated the
reason Resident #40 and Resident #7 did not receive nail care was a failure for nursing staff to
communicate the residents' needs and follow through with shower sheet findings.
Interview on 2/25/2023 at 10:15 AM with the ADM revealed the facility had a policy for nail care and a
process to report resident's nail care needs to the nursing staff. The ADM expected his staff to follow the
procedure so the residents could receive the care. The facility's failure to provide the appropriate nail care
fell on the nursing staff not following with reports or documentation.
Record Review of the facility's [Care of Fingernails/Toenails] Policy, dated April 2007, reflected (1) nail care
included daily cleaning and regular trimming; (2) proper nail care aided in the

Provide appropriate care for residents who are continent or incontinent of bowel/bladder, appropriate
catheter care, and appropriate care to prevent urinary tract infections.
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
interview, and record review, the facility failed to ensure a resident who was incontinent of bladder receives
appropriate treatment and services to prevent urinary tract infections and to restore continence to the
extent possible for 1 of 6 residents (Resident #228) reviewed for incontinent care.
Facility failed to evaluate Resident #228 for removal of newly placed indwelling catheter or establish a
rational for original placement to establish a need for an indwelling foley catheter upon admission.
This deficient practice could place residents at risk by exposing them to care that could lead to infection,
tissue breakdown, communicable diseases, and feelings of isolation related to poor hygiene.
Findings include:
Record review of Resident #228's undated Face Sheet reflected a [AGE] year-old female who was admitted
on [DATE] with a diagnosis of Hemiplegia and Hemiparesis following cerebral infarction affecting left
non-dominant side (damage to tissues in the brain due to loss of oxygen and blood to the area causing the
tissue to die also called a stroke or brain attack with left sided paralysis), hypothyroidism (a thyroid
hormone deficiency) , weakness, type 2 diabetes mellitus (elevated blood sugar), and heart failure.
Record review of Resident #228's admission assessment dated [DATE] reflected Resident #228 was
admitted from the rehab hospital and had a foley catheter present on admission.
Record review of Resident #228's incomplete admission MDS dated [DATE] reflected a BIMS score of 15,
indicating cognitively intact. Resident #228 was rated always incontinent with urine.
Record review of Resident #228s History and Physical dated 02/13/24 reflected Resident #228s
Genitourinary (urinary) system had been reviewed and was normal/negative indication she had no failures
within her urinary system.
In an interview on 02/20/24 at 3:16 PM with Resident #228 revealed she has been in the facility for 3
weeks. Resident #228 reported she has had the foley catheter since she was at the hospital. She reported
the foley catheter was really bothering her with irritation. Resident #228 revealed she has never had to have
a foley catheter in the past. Resident #228 stated would be discharged home soon.
In an interview on 02/23/24 at 12:31 PM with RN #C-reflected he has been employed for 3 weeks at the
facility.
RN #C reported a resident admitted with a Foley catheter would need justification for the use or need for
the catheter. RN #C reported Catheters are never used for convenience. Nurses would need to call
physician to see if the catheter could be discontinued or if the facility could possibly do a voiding trial to
determine if the resident would have needed to be seen by a urologist. RN #C reported the risk factors for
having had a foley catheter would include infection, trauma, and urinary dependence.

In an interview on 02/23/24 at 12:45 PM with the ADON #A she revealed it was her expectation for a
resident who admits with a foley catheter would have been to contact the physician for trial for
discontinuation of the foley catheter or get resident to urology. The ADON#A reported the facility would
need to find out why resident would need a foley catheter, ask nurse practitioner to evaluate the resident for
appropriate diagnosis. The ADON#A reported she is not sure there has been any training for foley
catheters. The ADON#A reported the negative effects would of having a foley catheter in place would have
been urinary tract infection, trauma, worsening of urinary incontinence. The ADON#A reported that nurse
managers responsible for following up on orders for foley catheters and further investigation of why a
resident would need one.
In an interview on 02/23/24 at 12:57 PM with the DON revealed for residents admitted with a foley catheter
the admitting nurse would have needed to contact the nurse practitioner or the physician to obtain an
appropriate diagnosis or receive an order to remove foley. The goal would have been to find out why the
foley catheter was needed. The DON revealed the resident would have needed a voiding trial or possible
referral to urology for further investigation and assessment as to any abnormalities causing urinary
retention. The DON reported the negative effects for a resident maintaining long term use of a foley
catheter would be infection. The DON stated the ADON reviews admissions and admission orders, the
DON supervises all ADONs.
Record review of the facility's policy and procedure for Urinary Continence and Incontinence - Assessment
Management Dated April 2010
#14 - If a resident /patient is admitted from the hospital with a newly placed indwelling catheter the
attending physician and staff will evaluate the potential for removing it depending on the current condition
and the rational for its original placement.

1 out of 6 residents (Resident # 234) reviewed for behaviors.
Residents Affected - Few
The facility failed to provide appropriate behavioral health services and/or interventions to prevent or
improve the depressive behaviors of Resident # 234.
This deficient practice could place residents at risk for causing a delay in receiving appropriate services
and a deterioration in the resident's psychosocial well-being.
Findings include:
Record review of Resident #234's, undated, face sheet reflected a [AGE] year-old male who was admitted
to the facility on [DATE]. Resident #234 had diagnoses which included heart attack, metabolic
encephalopathy (a chemical imbalance of the brain causing confusion), anemia (low red blood cells),
dementia and type 2 diabetes (elevated blood sugar).
Record review of Resident #234 admission MDS assessment, dated 2/5/24, reflected Resident #234 had a
BIMS score of 8 which indicated Resident #234 was cognitively impaired. Section D Mood Interview of the
same MDS reflected Resident #234 did not indicate any signs or symptoms of depression. Resident #234
required substantial max assistance with personal hygiene upper and lower body dressing.

Interview and observation on 2/22/2024 at 11:35 AM with CNA P revealed staff were trained to ensure each
resident knew how to utilize the call system located in the resident's bathroom. If a resident could not reach
the call light, a resident could be lying on the floor for up to 2 hours. Residents risked anxiety, despair, pain
due to injury, helplessness, and anger if they were unable to call staff for help. CNA P entered Resident

Residents Affected - Some
Observation on 2/22/20827 at 1:55 PM of Resident #51's call light pull string in Resident #51's bathroom
revealed the 10 knots were undone and the activation of the alarm to alert staff was operable when pulled
from the end of the string. This investigator, having used a measuring tool from a state issued iPhone 13,
the end of the call light pull string was 3 inches from the floor.
Interview on 2/24/24 at 10:35 AM with LVN F revealed the call light pull strings were in the restroom and
they were extended to the floor in case a resident needed help from the floor position. Risks for residents
not being able to reach and call for assistance were increased skin breakdown, prolonged pain, isolation,
anger, helplessness, and loss of trust with staff. If the strings were not in their intended place the failure
would lie on proper education, staff awareness, the last staff member to be in the bathroom.
Interview on 2/24/2024 at 10:50 AM with ADON B revealed the call light pull strings were utilized for
residents to call from help in the bathroom. The strings were long, so they were able to reach it from the
floor position. Staff were trained to make sure the string was in its intended position. The failure for the call
light pull strings, having not been in their intended position, was staff not recognizing and correcting the
string's intended location; and, having made sure the string was accessible to the resident if they were lying
on the floor.
Interview on 2/25/2024 at 10:15 AM with the ADM revealed there was a facility policy to address the call
light system. The ADM expected his staff to have noticed, and corrected, any issue or concerns with the call
light strings operational status and location. The ADM conducted a facility wide inspection for the call light
pull strings in the resident's bathrooms and stated there were no more irregularities. The ADM felt the
incorrect placement and operability issues with the call light pull strings were isolated and each concern
was corrected.
Record review of the facility's Answering the Call Light Policy, dated September 2003, reflected (1) explain
the call light to the new resident; (2) demonstrate the use of the call light; and (3) ask the resident to return
the demonstration so that you will be sure that the resident can operate the system. (Explain to the resident
that a call system is also located in the bathroom. Demonstrate how it works.)
