She said nursing staff were expected to ask the resident how it occurred, then complete a skin check, pain assessment, CIC/SBAR documentation and complete an incident report. She said after investigation, she identified RN C as the nurse who placed the dressing on Resident #67. The DON said in an interview RN C said he was notified by an unknown therapy staff that the Resident #67 had a new skin tear, and he performed treatment on the wound but he got caught up and forgot to document it[BR1] .

In an interview on 07/17/25 at 10:51 AM, the MDS nurse said when a resident admitted they should have a PASRR, she reviewed the information for completion and accuracy and enters it into the portal. She said if a resident had a positive PL 1 the appropriate behavioral health organization contacted the facility to initiate a meeting to determine if services were appropriate. She said regardless of whether a resident had a diagnosis of dementia or not if they had a diagnosis of mental illness such as Schizophrenia, mood disorder or MDD, mental illness should be indicated as yes in their PL1. She said an incorrect PASRR could place residents at risk of not being assessed for services and ultimately, they may not receive the services for which they are qualified. The MDS Nurse said based on what she saw in the system Resident #2's PASARR was inaccurate because she had dementia and a mental illness and Resident #77's was inaccurate because he also had a mental illness. She did not have a reason for why she did not identify the incorrect admitting PL1.

It covers all individuals seeking admission, regardless of funding source (Medicaid, Medicare, private pay), and residents requiring ongoing reviews. 3 Definitions: PASRR Level I (PL1) Screening: A preliminary assessment to identify individuals with suspected MI, ID, or DD, completed prior to admission.

Record review of Resident #4's undated Care Plan revealed, Focus- resident requires tube feeding r/t weight loss and lack of appetite; intervention- check placement of enteral tube before and after administering medications Record review of Resident #4's Order Summary Report revealed,- Omeprazole 20 mg DR- t daily for GERD.- Sennosides 8.6 mg- give 1 tablet via PEG-tube every morning and at bedtime for constipation.- Polyethylene Glycol 3350 Powder (MiraLAX) Give 1 packet via G-Tube two times a day for constipation mix with 4-8 oz beverage of choice. An observation and interview on 07/16/25 at 09:00 AM revealed, LVN D preparing for administration of medication via G-tube to Resident #4 with a Jug of cold water on the top of her medication cart. She retrieved 1 tablet of Omeprazole 20 mg (antacid for acid reflux) oral disintegrating tablets and placed it in a medication cup and then retrieved and crushed 1 Sennosides 8.6 mg (laxative) tablet and 17 grams of MiraLAX (stool softener) mixed in approximately 6 ml of water. LVN D then poured cold water into a cups and entered into the residents room. She then mixed and administered the disintegrating omeprazole to Resident #4 placing it on his tongue, mixed the crushed Sennosides 8.6 mg in cold water, mixed it with the syringe and paused the resident's continuous feed. LVN D withdrew approximately 10 cc of cold water into the syringe, attached it to the side port since the main port still had the paused continuous feed connected and pushed with force through the syringe 10 cc of water. She did not check for placement with osculation (listening for sounds) or check for residual by pulling volume from the syringe attached to the side port. LVN D withdrew the entire volume of mixed MiraLAX and attached the syringe to the side port and attempted to push the medication into the tube but there was resistance, and she was unable to administer the medication with force through the g-tube side port. LVN D said she could not administer medication through Resident #4's g-tube via gravity because the port was too small. She said she had administered medication via syringe to Resident #4 successfully in the past. LVN D attempted to disconnect the continuous feed from the other port to use but it was stuck so she stopped medication administration and said she would get one of the male staff to help her to disconnect the continuous feed. Resident #4 was chatty throughout the observation and did not show or verbalize any pain or discomfort. In an interview with on 07/16/25 at 09:14 AM, the ADON said when administrating medication via G-tube staff must first dissolve the medications in warm water. The nurse must then check for placement by checking the residual feed and if acceptable they can begin administration of a warm water flush followed by the medications with 5-10 ml warm water flushes in between and a flush after the last medication.

In an interview on 07/17/25 at 08:08 AM, the DON said prior to administering medication via g-tube nursing staff must check for placement by injecting air and listening for bowel sounds and check for residual. She said they should not push the fluid with a syringe through the g-tube. The DON said medication must be administered via gravity because if force is used it could result in in internal injury to the resident or damage to the port. The DON said cold water should not be used to dissolve medication for g-tube administration because the medication would not dissolve which could cause the g-tube to become clogged, and the use of cold water could also cause cramping to the resident. The DON said nursing staff are not supposed to use the g-tube side port for medication administration because it was smaller . In an interview on 07/17/25 at 03:39 PM, LVN D said prior to medication administration nursing staff are expected to check for residual to make sure the feeding tube is in the right place and the resident is not full. She said if the residual is more than 30 mL nursing staff are expected to hold off on medication administration and failure to check placement could place residents at risk of the feed going into the wrong place if the tube was displaced which could lead to peritonitis (redness and swelling of the lining of your belly or abdomen). LVN D said g-tube medications should be administered via gravity because using force with a syringe could blow the tube or cause the resident injury. She said she attempted to administer medication to Resident #4 through the wrong port and she was not sure why, she said she should have used gravity, she had a brain fart and should have known better[VT3] . Record review of LVN D is undated Competency Assessment G Tube Medication Administration revealed, 4- dissolve crush medications in lukewarm water; 12- check for placement ; 13. Check for residual; 14. Flush tube with warm water. The assessment did not specify that medications were to be administered via gravity and LVN D was deemed competent in all tasks by the ADON.A request was made on 07/16/25 at 09:14 AM to the ADON for a policy on G-tube medication administration.

The DON said if a resident had a diagnosis of MDD and did not receive a psych evaluation then the resident would not receive care for their diagnosis which could place residents at risk for self-isolation and self-harm.
