§483.10(e)(3) The right to reside and receive
services in the facility with reasonable
accommodation of resident needs and
preferences except when to do so would
endanger the health or safety of the resident or
other residents.
This REQUIREMENT is not met as evidenced
by:
Based on observation, interview, and record
review, the facility failed to ensure a call light
was within reach for one of six sampled
residents (Resident 6).
This deficient practice had the potential to
result in the delay of care for Resident 6 when
Resident 6 was unable to reach the call light to
call staff for assistance.

Findings:
During a review of Resident 6's Admission
Record (AR), the AR indicated, the facility
admitted Resident 6 on 5/24/2022, with
diagnoses of hemiplegia (weak or paralyzed on
one side of the body) and hemiparesis
(weakness or inability to move on one side of
the body) following nontraumatic subarachnoid
hemorrhage (bleeding in the area between the
brain and the thin tissues that cover and protect
it) affecting right dominant side (the side of the
body that is used more), respiratory failure
(occurs when the lungs cannot get enough
oxygen into the blood or eliminate enough
carbon dioxide from the body) with hypoxia
(lack of oxygen), and dysphagia (difficulty or
discomfort in swallowing).
During a review of Resident 6's Minimum Data
Set (MDS, a standardized assessment and
care screening tool), dated 6/10/2024, the MDS
indicated, Resident 6 was sometimes
understood by others and had the ability to
sometimes understand others. The MDS
indicated, Resident 6 was dependent (helper
did all the effort) on staff for toileting hygiene,
showering/bathing self, lower body dressing,
and putting on/taking off footwear.
During an observation on 8/27/2024 at 1:13 pm
with Resident 6, Resident 6 was lying in bed
with the head of bed elevated. Resident 6
pointed to the call light which was dangling off
the bed to the right side of Resident 6.
Resident 6 was able to move the left arm but
unable to move the right arm. Resident 6 was
motioning that the call light was not accessible
due to unable to move right arm.
During an interview on 8/27/2024 at 1:15 pm
with the Licensed Vocational Nurse 4 (LVN 4),
LVN 4 stated Resident 6 called for assistance

by using the call light. LVN 4 stated Resident 6
would either use the call light or motion for
someone who was in the hallway. LVN 4 stated
the call light needed to be on Resident 6's left
side. LVN 4 stated it was important to have the
call light near Resident 6 to get the assistance
needed when Resident 6 called for help. LVN 4
stated if the call light was not accessible to
Resident 6, Resident 6 would get
uncomfortable and not be able to get the
assistance needed.
During a review of the facility's undated policy
and procedure (P&P) titled, "Call Lights," the
P&P indicated, all staff shall know how to place
the call light for a resident and how to use the
call light system. The P&P indicated, nursing
and care duties included ensuring that the call
light was within the resident's reach when in
his/her room or when on the toilet.

procedures (P&P) titled, "Change in a
Resident's Condition or Status," by failing to:
1. Ensure Registered Nurse (RN) 3 and
Licensed Vocational Nurse (LVN) 7 notified
Resident 3's primary physician/medical doctor
(MD) when Resident 3 was noted with bleeding
and blood clots (gel-like clumps of blood) after
the removal of Resident 3's urinary catheter 2
on 6/18/2024 at 3 pm.
2. Ensure RN 4 and LVN 8 notified Resident
2's Medical Doctor/Primary Physician (MD) 1
on 8/28/2024 at 5:40 am, after Resident 2 fell
to the floor and Resident 2's medical pole (a
device that holds a bag(s) of Gastrostomy Tube
[G-tube- tube inserted through the belly that
brings nutrition directly to the stomach] feeding
in place while it is being administered through
the G-tube) was found on top of Resident 2.
3. Ensure RN 4 and LVN 8 endorsed (to report)
to the oncoming shift (7 am to 3 pm shift) that
MD 1 had not been notified regarding Resident
2's fall on 8/28/2024.
As a result, on 6/18/2024, at 9:20 pm,
approximately six (6) hours after staff
(unidentified) noted Resident 3 with blood clots,
Resident 3 became tachycardic (increased
heart rate), had scant urine output (reduced
amount of urine produced) and developed
hypovolemia (a decrease in the volume of
circulating blood in the body) and hypotension
(having abnormally low blood pressure).
Resident 3 was transferred to General Acute
Care Hospital (GACH) 1 via emergency
medical services (EMS) on 6/18/2024 for
further evaluation. This failure had the potential
to delay the provision of necessary care and
services for Resident 3. This failure prevented
MD 1 from being informed of Resident 2's fall
and injuries and prevented MD 1 from providing
orders as needed which had the potential to
cause harm to Resident 2.

Record (AR), the AR indicated, the facility
originally admitted Resident 3 on 6/9/2022, and
readmitted Resident 3 on 8/1/2024, with
diagnoses that included respiratory failure (a
serious condition that makes it difficult to
breathe on your own) with hypoxia (lack of
oxygen), attention to tracheostomy (a
procedure where a hole is made at the front of
the neck that provides an alternative airway for
breathing), and benign prostatic hyperplasia
(enlarged prostate [part of the male
reproductive system]) with lower urinary tract
symptoms (trouble urinating or urinating too
often).
During a review of Resident 3's untitled CP,
revised on 7/1/2024, the CP indicated,
Resident 3 had an indwelling urinary catheter.
The CP interventions included for staff to
monitor Resident 3's urine for sediment (specks
that make the urine look cloudy), cloudiness,
odor, blood, and amount of output (amount of
urine produced) and to notify Resident 3's
physician and responsible party if Resident 3
had a COC.

were noted when the urinary catheter was
removed, and that the urinary catheter was
discontinued due to swelling and bleeding. The
COC/SBAR indicated LVN 7 endorsed the
COC to the PM shift staff (3 pm - 11 pm).
During a review of Resident 3's COC/ SBAR,
dated 6/18/2024, timed at 10:06 pm, the
COC/SBAR indicated, (on 6/18/24), at 8:40 pm,
Resident 3 had tachycardia (increased heart
rate), scant urine output, and hypovolemia after
the removal of the urinary catheter. The
COC/SBAR indicated Resident 3 was

scan that examines the urinary system) and
replace the urinary catheter for continuous
bladder irrigation (a flushing of the bladder with
sterile fluid to prevent blood clots from forming
and blocking the outflow of urine).
During a review of Resident 3's GACH 1
Consultation Note (CN) by the urologist (a
doctor who specializes in diagnosing and
treating conditions of the urinary tract and
reproductive system), dated 6/19/2024, timed
at 8:20 pm, the CN indicated, Resident 3's
chief complaint was hematuria (presence of
blood in the urine). The CN indicated Resident
3 had chronic retention (a condition where a
person can urinate but is unable to fully empty
their bladder) with gross hematuria (blood is
visible in the urine) likely from the indwelling
catheter trauma.
During an interview on 8/28/2024 at 12:28 pm
with LVN 7, LVN 7 stated on 6/18/2024, LVN 7
was going to flush Resident 3's indwelling
catheter but met resistance during flushing.
LVN 7 stated as soon as LVN 7 pulled out
Resident 3's indwelling catheter tubing from
Resident 3, blood and blood clots came out

Based on interview and record review, the
facility failed to protect the personal property of
one of six sampled residents (Resident 3) from
theft and loss by failing to inventory (make a
complete list of) Resident 3's personal
belongings on admission as indicated in the
facility's policy and procedure (P&P) titled,
"Personal Property."
This deficient practice placed Resident 3's
personal belongings at risk of theft and loss
and could negatively affect Resident 3's
psychosocial well-being.
Findings:
During a review of Resident 3's Admission
Record (AR), the AR indicated, Resident 3 was
originally admitted to the facility on 6/9/2022,
and readmitted on 8/1/2024, with a diagnosis
that included dementia (impaired ability to
remember, think, or make decisions that
interfere with doing everyday tasks).
During a review of Resident 3's Inventory List Resident Clothing and Possessions (ILRCP) on
discharge dated 1/15/2024, timed at 10:34 AM,
the ILRCP indicated, Resident 3 was
discharged with three blankets, one feet
machine, and one foot pillow.
During a review of Resident 3's Minimum Data
Set (MDS, a standardized comprehensive
assessment of each resident's functional
capabilities and identifies health problems)
dated 7/18/2024, the MDS indicated, Resident
3's cognitive abilities (ability to think, learn, and
process information) were severely impaired.
During an interview on 8/27/2024 at 2:35 PM
with Registered Nurse (RN) 1, RN 1 stated RN
1 did not find a recent ILRCP form for Resident

3. RN 1 stated Resident 3 was readmitted to
the facility on 8/1/2024 but there was no ILRCP
form completed on admission. RN 1 stated an
ILRCP form needed to be completed upon
Resident 3's admission. RN 1 stated when
family members brought items from home for
residents, staff were to update the resident's
ILRCP form. RN 1 stated staff were to ensure
the name of the resident were on the resident's
belongings to identify the owner of the
belonging/item. RN 1 stated the risk of not
completing an ILRCP form upon resident's
admission was that the resident's belongings
could go missing. RN 1 stated it could make
the resident feel upset if the resident's
belongings went missing and were not logged
on the ILRCP form.
During an interview on 8/27/2024 at 3:00 PM
with the Social Services Director (SSD), the
SSD stated the ILRCP form was updated
whenever items were brought in for the
resident. The SSD stated Social Services were
responsible for updating the list on the ILRCP
form. The SSD stated when the resident was
admitted, discharged, or when new resident
items were brought in the facility, the ILRCP
form needed to be completed/updated. The
SSD stated the ILRCP form was used to
respect the resident and individuals who bring
in resident's personal belongings. The SSD
stated the risk of not updating the ILRCP form
was that there would be no documentation of
new resident items/belongings. The SSD stated
when a resident lost a personal belonging in
the facility and the personal belonging was not
listed on the ILRCP form, it would make the
residents feel disrespected because the facility
did not respect the resident's personal
belongings.

that are not required to treat the resident's
medical symptoms. When the use of restraints
is indicated, the facility must use the least
restrictive alternative for the least amount of
time and document ongoing re-evaluation of
the need for restraints.
This REQUIREMENT is not met as evidenced
by:
Based on observation, interview, and record
review, the facility failed to ensure one of six
sampled residents (Resident 2) remained free
from physical restraint (any manual method,
physical or mechanical device, equipment, or
material that is attached or adjacent to a
resident's body, cannot be easily removed by a
residents, and restricts the resident's freedom
of movement or access to their body) for use of
convenience (the result of any action that has
the effect of alerting a resident's behavior and
requires a lesser amount of care or effort, and
is not in a resident's best interest) as indicated
in the facility's policy and procedure (P&P)
titled, "Physical Restraint," by failing to:
1. Ensure Registered Nurse (RN) 4, Licensed
Vocational Nurse (LVN) 2, LVN 6, and Certified
Nurse Assistant (CNA) 3 did not wrap a towel
around Resident 2's right arm and inside the
freedom splint (adjustable, multipurpose soft
external device that helps restrict elbow
movement), causing the splint to further restrict
Resident 2's right elbow from bending.
2. Ensure assigned nursing staff monitored and
documented Resident 2's right arm while the
freedom splint was being used to ensure safety
during use of the restraint.
These failures had the potential to cause
physical injuries and psychosocial (mental,
emotional, social, and spiritual effects) harm to
Resident 2 from the improper use of the
physical restraint.

documented evidence a care plan for the use
of the freedom splint or restraint was
developed.
During a concurrent interview and observation
on 8/27/2024 at 1 pm with LVN 2, Resident 2's
right arm freedom splint was observed with the
middle point of the splint at Resident 2's elbow.
There was a towel wrapped around Resident
2's arm, and the splint was wrapped over the
towel. LVN 2 stated the towel was wrapped
inside the splint, so the splint was more
padded. LVN 2 stated LVN 2 kept the towel
wrapped around Resident 2's arm with the
splint otherwise the splint slid down to Resident
2's wrist. LVN 2 stated the towel kept the splint
in place so Resident 2 could not bend Resident
2's arm and pull on her g-tube or tracheostomy.
During a concurrent observation and interview
on 8/27/2024 at 1:22 pm with RN 1 and LVN 2,
Resident 2's freedom splint was observed. RN
1 stated Resident 2 was not supposed to have
a towel wrapped around Resident 2's right arm,
inside of the splint because it made Resident
2's elbow movement more restricted. RN 1
stated Resident 2 could not bend Resident 2's
elbow at all when the towel was inside of the
splint.
During a concurrent observation and interview
on 8/27/2024 at 5:01 pm with LVN 6 and CNA
3, Resident 2's right arm freedom splint was
observed. CNA 3 stated there was a towel
wrapped inside of the restraint. CNA 3 stated
the restraint stopped Resident 2 from bending
Resident 2's arm so Resident 2 did not pull out
the tracheostomy tube or g-tube. CNA 3 stated
the towel was wrapped inside of the splint
when CNA 3 started CNA 3's shift at 3 pm.
CNA 3 stated the towel was always wrapped
around the inside of Resident 2's restraint
when CNA 3 was working. CNA 3 stated the

During the same interview on 8/27/2024 at 5:01
pm with LVN 6, LVN 6 stated the towel was
not part of Resident 2's freedom splint restraint
and was not intended to be used with it. LVN 6
stated the towel was in the freedom splint
restraint to hinder Resident 2 from bending
Resident 2's elbow. LVN 6 stated without the
towel, Resident 2 could still bend Resident 2's
elbow and pull Resident 2's tracheostomy tube.
During a follow-up interview on 8/27/2024 at
5:35 pm with LVN 6, LVN 6 stated nursing staff
needed to monitor the use of Resident 2's
freedom splint restraint for safety and skin
breakdown as nursing interventions. LVN 6
stated nursing staff did not document the
monitoring of the freedom splint restraint. LVN
6 stated (in general) restraints needed to be
released every two hours and as needed to
check the resident's skin to make sure there
were no issues and to check for circulation of
the restrained area. LVN 6 stated Resident 2's
freedom splint restraint was supposed to be
worn as designed otherwise it could cause
injury to Resident 2.
During an interview on 8/28/2024 at 12:15 pm
with the Director of Nursing (DON), the DON
stated a freedom splint was used to stop
residents from pulling out life-sustaining tubes
like tracheostomies. The DON stated a
freedom splint was considered a restraint. The
DON stated when staff used a restraint, staff
were supposed to observe the site being
restrained and document in the resident's
medical record to monitor for safety and
prevent harm. The DON stated the freedom
splint could cause circulation problems if the
splint was too tight or there was a towel

wrapped inside of the splint. The DON stated
nursing staff needed to document the staff
observations/assessment and monitoring of the
restraint every two hours and as needed in the
medication administration record (MAR) and/or
progress notes. The DON stated when staff
were not using Resident 2's restraint as it was
intended to be used or staff were not
monitoring and documenting Resident 2's
restraint, it was a safety risk for skin breakdown
and circulation problems. The DON stated if
Resident 2 developed skin breakdown or
circulation problems from the use of the
restraint, it could cause pain and discomfort,
infection, and emotional distress.
During an interview on 8/28/2024 at 1:12 pm
with the Director of Staffing Development
(DSD), the DSD stated the freedom splint was
designed to be applied directly to the arm to
restrict the elbow from bending but not
completely hinder the bending of the elbow.
The DSD stated it was intended to prevent
injury from the resident pulling on lines and
tubes and causing self-harm. The DSD stated if
a towel was wrapped around Resident 2's arm
and the freedom splint was placed over the
towel, then the splint would cause more
restriction to the elbow than intended. The DSD
stated Resident 2's elbow movement was
inhibited rather than somewhat restricted. The
DSD stated Resident 2's elbow could become
contracted (a condition of shortening and
hardening of muscles, tendons, or other
tissues, often leading to deformity and rigidity
of joints), develop circulation problems, or the
towel could rub against Resident 2's skin and
cause skin injury. The DSD stated the DSD had
not provided an in-service on the use of the
freedom splint. The DSD stated licensed
nurses needed to document the monitoring of
any restraint in the MAR and in the progress
notes.

Findings:
1. During a review of Resident 2 ' s Admission
Record (AR), the AR indicated Resident 2 was
admitted to the facility on 8/15/2024, with
diagnoses that included difficulty walking,
generalized muscle weakness (weakness of
muscles caused by lack of exercise, aging,
injury, or disease), respiratory failure (a serious
condition that makes it hard to breathe on one '
s own) with hypoxia (low level of oxygen
[colorless, odorless gas] in the body that
causes confusion, restlessness, and difficulty
breathing), tracheostomy, gastrostomy (gtube), and dependence on respirator-ventilator.
During a review of Resident 2 ' s Admission
Assessment (AA) dated 8/15/2024 timed at
8:10 pm, the AA indicated Resident 2 was
confused, required g-tube feeding, and
required two-person (staff) assistance during
transfers. The AA indicated Resident 2 was
dependent (helper did ALL the effort. Resident
did none of the effort to complete the activity,
or the assistance of 2 or more helpers was
required for the resident to complete the
activity) with showering, oral hygiene,
grooming, and dressing. The AA indicated
Resident 2 was alert but was unable to

with the Director of Nursing (DON), the DON
stated (in general) when a resident had a
restraint like a freedom splint, there was
supposed to be a CP made to show there was
potential for injury or entrapment. The DON
stated the CP should be development to
attempt least restrictive measures first before
restraining Resident 2, such as monitoring the
Resident 2. The DON stated if a resident has
skin conditions or skin wounds like scabs and
skin tears, they needed to be care planned so
that all staff were aware of the wounds and
knew what interventions to take for Resident 2
to prevent further wounds.
2. During a review of Resident 2 ' s Admission

assessment. The P&P indicated the
comprehensive, person-centered CP included
measurable objectives and timeframes,
described the services that were to be
furnished to attain or maintain the resident ' s

the relationship between the resident ' s
problem areas and their causes, and relevant
clinical decision making. The P&P indicated,
when possible, the interventions addressed the
underlying source(s) of the problem area(s),
not just symptoms or triggers. The P&P
indicated assessments of residents were
ongoing and CP were to be revised as
information about the residents and the

This REQUIREMENT is not met as evidenced
by:
Based on observation, interview, and record
review, the facility failed to provide care and
services to prevent a fall (move downward,
typically rapidly and freely without control, from
a higher to a lower level) for one of six sampled
residents (Resident 2), who was at high risk for
falls, and as indicated in the facility's policies
and procedures (P&P) titled, "Safety and
Supervision of Residents," and "Falls and Fall
Risk, Managing," by failing to:
Ensure Resident 2's bed alarm/pad alarm
(sensor pad device placed under a resident's
bottom containing sensors that triggers an
alarm when it detects a change in pressure,
used as an early alert when a resident is trying
to get out of bed) was working/functioning on
the morning of 8/28/2024 prior to Resident 2
sustaining a fall.
As a result of this failure, on 8/28/2024 at
approximately 5:40 am, Resident 2 fell to the
floor, Resident 2's medical pole (a device that
holds a bag(s) of Gastrostomy Tube [G-tubetube inserted through the belly that brings
nutrition directly to the stomach] feeding in
place while it is being administered through the
g-tube) was found on top of Resident 2.
Resident 2 sustained discoloration/bruises
(mark on the skin caused by blood trapped
under the surface as a result of injury to small
blood vessels but does not break the skin) on
Resident 2's right eye and right hand,
developed a scab (dry, rough, protective crust
that forms over a cut or wound during healing)
on the right thumb, and had bruising on
Resident 2's right lower leg. Resident 2 was
anxious, stressed, and had pain (unrated) on
Resident 2's right hand and right eye.

contusion (bruise). LVN 2 stated Resident 2
had a new scab-like wound to the right thumb.
LVN 2 stated the scabbed appeared to be still
forming because the middle of the wound
appeared to be opened. LVN 2 stated the
discoloration and wound found on Resident 2's
right eye and right hand could be a result of the
fall Resident 2 sustained earlier that morning
(8/28/2024) because they were not present on
Resident 2 on 8/27/2024. LVN 7 stated LVN 7
documented Resident 2's new discoloration
and wound were most likely sustained from the
fall.
During a concurrent observation and interview
won 8/28/2024 at 11:20 am, with LVN 2 and

abdomen. LVN 8 stated Resident 2's left
shoulder, back, and right knee were, "really"
red. LVN 8 stated Resident 2's ventilator tubing
was almost pulled out. LVN 8 stated Resident 2
had a pad alarm, but the alarm did not sound
when Resident 2 got out of bed. LVN 8 stated
the pad alarm (placed on the bed and
underneath a resident) was supposed to sound
by making a loud noise when pressure was
removed (resident lifts body away from the
pad) from the pad. LVN 8 stated the pad alarm
sound alerted the staff and CNAs (in general)
assisted residents before the fall and harm
could occur. LVN 8 stated LVN 8 asked RN 4 if

change another resident. RN 4 stated Resident
2 fell when no staff was supervising Resident 2.
RN 4 stated RN 4 had CNA 4 sitting at
Resident 2's door because Resident 2 was
restless and trying to get up out of bed prior to
the fall. RN 4 stated it was important to provide
supervision to Resident 2 to keep Resident 2
safe and to prevent Resident 2 from falling or
getting hurt. RN stated Resident 2's pad alarm
was not sounding when RN 4 found Resident 2
on the floor after falling. RN 4 stated the pad
alarm was supposed to warn staff that Resident
2 was trying to get out of bed so they could
help Resident 2 before Resident 2 fell and/or
got hurt. RN 4 stated if the pad alarm had been
working as it was intended to, it was possible
Resident 2's fall and injuries could have been
avoided.
On 8/28/2024 at 4:02 pm and at 4:28 pm CNA
4 was contacted for an interview, but CNA 4
was not reached.
During an interview on 8/28/2024 at 4:29 pm,
with the DON, the DON stated pad alarms were
designed to warn staff when a resident got up
out of bed and for staff to quickly provide
assistance to the resident before they had an
accident such as a fall. The DON stated pad
alarms were supposed to sound when a
resident removed pressure from the pad,
indicating the resident was getting up from bed.
The DON stated staff were supposed to ensure
pad alarms were working as intended at the
beginning of every shift and as needed. The
DON stated it was possible for Resident 2's fall
and injuries to be avoided if Resident 2's pad
alarm was working properly on 8/28/2024.

During a review of the facility's P&P titled,
"Falls and Fall Risk, Managing," revised
3/2023, the P&P indicated based on previous
evaluations and current data, staff would
identify interventions related to the resident's
specific risks and causes and try to prevent the
resident from falling, and try to minimize
complications from falling. The P&P indicated
position change alarms (pad alarms) would not
be used as the primary or sole intervention to
prevent falls, but rather would be used to assist
the staff in identifying patterns and routines of
the resident, and the use of alarms would be
monitored for efficacy and staff would respond
to alarms in a timely manner.
During a review of the of facility's undated P&P
titled, "Alarm Monitor," the P&P indicated the
facility may use an alarm monitor as a less
restrictive measure to alert staff and provide
immediate assistance as needed. The P&P
indicated the staff would apply the alarm to the
resident, following the manufacture's
instruction, to ensure its functionalists.

1. During a review of Resident 3's Admission
Record (AR), the AR indicated, the facility
originally admitted Resident 3 on 6/9/2022, and
readmitted Resident 3 on 8/1/2024, with
diagnoses that included respiratory failure (a
serious condition that makes it difficult to
breathe on your own) with hypoxia (lack of
oxygen), attention to tracheostomy (a
procedure where a hole is made at the front of
the neck that provides an alternative airway for
breathing), and benign prostatic hyperplasia
(enlarged prostate [part of the male
reproductive system]) with lower urinary tract
symptoms (trouble urinating or urinating too
often).During a review of Resident 3's Minimum

2. Ensure Family Member (FM) 1 donned on
PPE prior to entering a COVID-19 positive
room.
These failures had the potential to result in the
spread of COVID-19 virus to residents, staff,
and visitors in the facility.
Findings:
1. During a concurrent observation and
interview on 8/27/2024 at 12:39 PM in the
hallway, MW 1 was observed to be in a
COVID-19 positive room without a face shield.
A purple sign was observed posted outside of
the room that indicated "Stop, Novel
Respiratory Precautions (newly identified
respiratory organism that causes acute
respiratory infections which require the use of a
N95 [PPE that is used to provide a tight seal on
the person's face to prevent particles or liquid
contamination of the face], face shield, gown,
and gloves prior to entering the room). Clean
hands, wear a gown, an N-95 and face shield
or goggles, and gloves on entry." MW 1 stated
MW 1 was unaware MW 1 had to wear a face
shield before entering a COVID-19 positive
room. MW 1 stated not wearing the correct
PPE could spread COVID-19 virus to other
residents.
During an interview on 8/27/2024 at 12:47 PM
with Registered Nurse (RN) 1, RN 1 stated MW
1 was not wearing a face shield when MW 1
entered a COVID positive room. RN 1 stated
the risk of not donning on the proper PPE for a
droplet precaution room (isolation precaution to
prevent infection caused by viruses or bacteria
that are transmitted through the air droplets by
coughing, sneezing, talking, and close contact
with an infected person) was that the virus
could spread to others in the facility.

During an interview on 8/27/2024 at 12:53 PM
with the Infection Preventionist Nurse (IPN), the
IPN stated the facility's COVID-19 outbreak
started on 8/19/2024. The IPN stated if staff
members were not wearing the correct PPE
prior to entering a COVID-19 positive room, this
put residents, staff members, and family
members at risk for developing and spreading
COVID-19.
2. During a concurrent observation and
interview on 8/28/2024 at 11:50 AM with FM 1
and Licensed Vocational Nurse (LVN) 1 in the
hallway, FM 1 was observed sitting inside a
COVID-19 positive room without face shield
and gloves. FM 1 stated no one informed FM 1
what to wear before entering the COVID-19
positive room. LVN 1 stated FM 1 was not
wearing the appropriate PPE for a COVID-19
positive room. LVN 1 stated FM 1 needed to
don face shield and gloves. LVN 1 stated the
risk of not wearing the appropriate PPE was
that COVID-19 virus could spread to others.
During an interview on 8/29/2024 at 10:50 AM

review on 8/28/2024 at 2:59 PM with the
Infection Preventionist Nurse (IPN), Resident
5's Immunization Report (IR) dated 10/5/2023

responsible party when the Flu shot was
administered to Resident 5 on 10/5/2023. The
IPN stated the IR indicated, "No," under
education provided to the resident prior to
administering the Flu shot. The IPN stated the
risk of not providing education prior to
administering a Flu shot was that the resident
and/or responsible party would not be aware of
possible side effects of the Flu vaccine and
what possible symptoms to report to staff.
During an interview on 8/29/2024 at 10:50 AM

During an interview on 8/28/2024 at 2:59 PM
with the Infection Prevention Nurse (IPN), the
IPN stated there was no documentation that
Residents 1, 2, 4, and 5 were screened on
admission for the COVID-19 vaccine. The IPN
stated the CVRC must be filled out on
admission, and when it was not filled out then
the COVID-19 vaccine was not offered to the
resident. The IPN stated the risk of not
screening and offering the COVID-19 vaccine
to residents on admission was that the resident
could develop complications related to
COVID-19. The IPN stated all vaccines needed
to be offered on admission to ensure measures
were taken to prevent infections.
During an interview on 8/29/2024 at 10:50 AM
with Registered Nurse (RN) 3, RN 3 stated the
IPN, or RNs were responsible for screening
newly admitted residents for the COVID-19
vaccine. RN 3 stated the purpose of screening
for the COVID-19 vaccine was because
residents were at a higher risk for getting sick
and developing complications from COVID-19.
RN 3 stated when residents get sick with
COVID-19, residents could develop
complications, such as, hospitalizations,
desaturation (low oxygen in the blood), or
sepsis (medical emergency that occurs when
the body's immune system has an extreme
response to an infection).
During a review of the facility's P&P titled,
"COVID-19 Policy," dated 5/1/2024, the P&P
indicated, staff educated residents, responsible
parties, and staff members about the benefits
of receiving the COVID-19 vaccination, risks of
refusals, and to offer boosters regularly. The
P&P indicated, COVID-19 vaccinations were
offered to residents and staff.
