Develop and implement a complete care plan that meets all the resident's needs, with timetables and
actions that can be measured.
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
observation, interview, and record review, the facility failed to develop and implement a comprehensive
person-centered care plan that included measurable objectives and time frames to meet a resident's
medical and nursing needs and described the services to be furnished to attain or maintain the resident's
highest practicable physical, mental, and psychosocial well-being for 1 (Resident #1) of 6 residents
reviewed for care plans.
-The facility failed to develop a comprehensive person-centered care plan for Resident #1 regarding
significant change of condition of a newly diagnosed DVT (a blood clot in a deep vein in the body).
-The facility failed to develop a comprehensive person-centered care plan for Resident #1's severe weight
loss.
This deficient practice could place residents in the facility at risk of not receiving the necessary care or
services as indicated in their comprehensive person-centered plans to meet their needs for care assistance
and treatments.
Findings include:
Record review of Resident #1's admission Record dated 11/20/2024, revealed a [AGE] year-old female who
was admitted to the facility on [DATE]. Admitting diagnoses included dementia (impaired ability to
remember, think, or make decisions that interferes with doing everyday activities), morbid obesity (chronic
disease in which a person has a body mass index of 40 or higher and is experiencing obesity-related health
conditions), catatonic schizophrenia (rare severe mental disorder characterized by striking motor behavior,
typically involving either significant reductions in voluntary movement or hyperactivity and agitated), major
depressive disorder (mental health disorder characterized by persistently depressed mood or loss of
interest in activities, causing significant impairment in daily life), mild intellectual disabilities (deficits in
theoretical thinking/learning), and post cholecystectomy syndrome (a progressive brain disease that causes
a decline in thinking abilities).
Record review of Resident #1's quarterly MDS dated [DATE], revealed Section C - Cognitive Patterns, that
the resident was rarely/never understood. Section GG - Functional Abilities, revealed resident was
dependent for toileting hygiene, showering/bathing, dressing, bed mobility, and transfers, and
substantial/maximal assistance with eating, oral and personal hygiene. Section K - Swallowing/Nutritional

Level of Harm - Minimal harm
or potential for actual harm
Review of Resident #1's weight records from 5/1/2024 to 11/4/2024 revealed the following:
Residents Affected - Few
-one-month review, Resident #1 had a 7.4% weight loss
-three-month review, Resident #1 had a 14.4% weight loss
-six-month review, Resident #1 had a 17.6% weight loss.
Record review of Resident #1's progress notes dated 11/02/2024 at 1:01 p.m., revealed the physician
ordered Resident #1 receive a venous doppler (special ultrasound technique that evaluates blood as it
flows through a blood vessel including major arteries, and veins in the abdomen, arms, legs, and neck), to
the right upper extremity to rule out DVT.
Record review of Resident #1's progress notes dated 11/02/2024 at 9:46 p.m., revealed results of the
venous doppler were received and found to be positive. Findings were reported to the provider on call and
new order for Xarelto 20 mg for three months was received.
Record review of Resident #1's order summary dated 11/18/2024, revealed the resident was on a pureed
texture diet with regular consistency, for difficulty with mechanical soft texture diet. The order summary
further revealed an order with start date of 11/03/2024, for Xarelto Oral Tablet 20 mg, to be taking one time
a day for DVT for 3 months. Review of Resident #1's MAR for month of November 2024, revealed resident
was taking her medications as ordered.
Record review of Resident #1's Care Plan dated 11/20/2024, revealed no care plan information related to
DVT care. Further review revealed the following focus area initiated on 4/16/24: Resident #1 had a diet
order other than regular and was at risk for unplanned weight loss or gain. There was no care plan for
Resident #1's severe weight loss.
During an observation and interview on 11/20/2024 at 3:40 p.m., revealed Resident #1 was at the hospital
and the resident was noted to be sedated and intubated. The hospital nurse stated when the resident
arrived at the hospital ER, the resident became unresponsive and hypoxic (having too little oxygen) and
was intubated. The hospital nurse said Resident #1 was still being treated for a DVT to her right arm with no
concerns regarding treatment for DVT. The hospital nurse said there were no concerns regarding Resident
#1 having any weight loss.
During an interview on 11/20/2024 at 11:44 a.m., LVN I said Resident #1 was fully dependent on staff for all
ADL's. LVN I said Resident #1 was not able to move much and was verbally incomprehensible. LVN I said
during a physician visit to the facility, Resident #1 was seen for possible dependent edema (fluid builds up
in the body's tissues, causing swelling) of her right arm. On 11/2/2024 Resident #1 was found to have a
DVT to her right arm and the physician ordered medication Xarelto to treat the DVT. LVN I reviewed
Resident #1's care plan and said that the DVT was not care planned. LVN I said he did not know why a care
plan was not developed for the DVT care. LVN I said that the physician was aware and treating the DVT.
LVN I said Resident #1 was being monitored while on her treatment. LVN I said Resident #1 started eating
less in the past few weeks and less despite staff and family encouraging her and being present to offer
feeding assistance. LVN I said CNAs would report how much Resident #1 would eat, and then LVN would
ensure Resident #1 was given a supplemental shakes. LVN I

Level of Harm - Minimal harm
or potential for actual harm
During an interview on 11/22/2024 at 10:06 a.m., the DON said while the PCP was rounding at the facility,
swelling to Resident #1's right arm was reported. The DON said an ultrasound was ordered and Resident
#1 found to have a DVT. The DON said the DVT should have been care planned immediately after the
diagnosis. The DON said the ADON should have care planned the DVT care. The DON said the DM was
the person who monitored resident weights. The DON said weights were discussed during the facility
weekly standard of care meeting. The DON said she could not remember Resident #1 being discussed
during the meetings. The DON said severe weight loss should have been care planned but was not. The
DON said if the DM reported severe weight loss of Resident #1, then the ADON should have developed a
care plan. The DON again said she did not remember if the DM ever informed the DON or ADON of any
weight loss by Resident #1.
Residents Affected - Few
During an interview on 11/22/2024 at 11:17 a.m., the ADON said Resident #1 could not eat on her own and
required assisted feeding. The ADON said Resident #1 was diagnosed with DVT and that was a change of
condition. The ADON said the change in condition DVT should have been care planned. The ADON said
the MDS staff and nursing staff developed the care plans. The ADON said she should have care planned
the DVT but had been very busy with a lot of staff turnover at the facility. The ADON said the Dietary
Manager was responsible for having resident weights done and reviewed. The ADON said the Dietary
Manager would have been responsible to report changes such as significant gain or losses to the team and
the Dietitian. The ADON said she did not recall any meeting discussion regarding Resident #1's weight
loss. The ADON said Resident #1 was being given supplement shakes when she would not eat her meals.
The ADON said there was no care plan for her severe weight loss other than she was at risk of unplanned
weight loss.
During an interview on 11/22/2024 at 11:48 a.m., the Dietary Manager (DM) said the last time he worked at
the facility was 11/8/2024 and had been out due to injury. The DM said he monitored the weights of
residents. The DM said he was familiar with Resident #1. The DM said Resident #1's ate at the assisted
table because she could not eat on her own. The DM said her dementia was progressing and she was
usually eating 50% to 75% of her meal. The DM said he knew Resident #1's weight was decreasing slowly
but not so fast. The DM said she was not on a planned weight loss. The DM said in November 2024, he
communicated via email that Resident #1 had experienced 5% or more weight loss and would start with
weekly weights. The DM said the email was sent to the Dietitian, DON, ADON and Administrator. The DM
said he was involved with an accident outside of the facility on 11/8/2024 and had not returned to work. The
DM said he believed the ADONs were monitoring the weights. The DM said he had not reported any severe
weight loss prior to November 2024. The DM said he was responsible for reporting any severe weight
changes to the team that included the DON and ADONs. The DM said the severe weight loss should have
been care planned but that was a nursing department and MDS function.
During an interview on 11/22/2024 at 12:54 p.m., the Dietitian said that the PCP had noted that Resident
#1 would benefit from weight loss. The Dietitian said the physician also noted being aware that the resident
had been eating poorly which had started prior to the resident being admitted to the facility. The Dietitian
said she was not aware of the severe weight loss by the DON, ADON, or the Dietary Manager.
During an interview on 11/25/2024 at 12:02 p.m., the PCP said he was aware of Resident #1's weight loss
and that her weight loss was beneficial for her. The PCP said Resident #1's weight loss was occurring due
to disease process, and nothing could be done as the family refused to consider a G-tube for the resident.
The PCP said the resident was not eating or drinking by the time she was sent to

the hospital and due to advanced condition, her health was steadily declining. The PCP said he was aware
that Resident #1 had a DVT to her right arm and was treating the DVT with medication. The PCP said he
was not aware if the DVT, and weight loss were being care planned at the facility. The PCP said he visited
the facility weekly and did not have any concerns with care and services Resident #1 received.
During an interview on 11/25/2024 at 2:36 p.m., the Administrator said resident weight loss should be
monitored and severe weight loss should be care planned. The Administrator said the Dietary Manager sent
an email on 11/5/2024 saying that Resident #1 should have been weighed weekly but there was not
follow-up documentation. The Administrator said the purpose of a care plan was to make sure the facility
staff was following what they were supposed to be doing and providing the care needed by the residents.
The Administrator said nursing should have been responsible for including the changes in condition in the
care plan.
Review of facility provided Notifying the Physician of Change in Status policy dated 03/11/2013, reflected in
part if the resident remains in the facility and a significant change has occurred, update the care plan
accordingly.
Review of facility provided Comprehensive Care Planning policy undated, reflected in part Each resident
will have a person-centered comprehensive care plan developed and implemented to meet his/her
preferences and goals, and address the resident's medical, physical, mental, and psychosocial needs. The
comprehensive care plan will reflect interventions to enable each resident to meet his/her objectives.
Interventions are the specific care and services that will be implemented. The resident's care plan will be
reviewed after each Admission, Quarterly, Annual and/or Significant Change MDS assessment, and revised
based on changing goals, preferences and needs of the resident and in response to current interventions.
