A review of the Minimum Data Set (MDS- a
standardized assessment and care screening
tool), dated October 2, 2017, indicated
Resident 35's Brief Interview for Mental Status
(BIMS) score was 15. A BIMS score of 15
indicates the resident has intact cognitive skills.
The MDS indicated the resident had a fracture.
On December 23, 2017 at 12 p.m., Resident 35
was sitting in a wheelchair with a ankle/foot
immobilizer in place. The resident was alert
and interviewable. When the resident was
asked how she was doing she stated she fell at
home and fractured her foot and now it is
healing. The resident stated she was receiving
physical therapy and was going home soon.
A review of Resident 35's care plan dated
September 21, 2017, for right foot/ankle
fracture
did not indicate and address specific care
necessary to promote healing of the resident's
fracture such as immobilization and weight
bearing status.
A review of Resident 35's care plan dated
September 21, 2017, for at risk of fall, indicated
the resident was non-compliant with safety
needs. The care plan did not specify what the
resident was non-compliant with. The care
plan did not indicate devices necessary to
immobilize the foot and ankle such as a
controlled ankle movement boot (CAM- a brace
in the form of a boot) and or other restrictions
such as weight bearing status-weight allowed
on leg, to the right lower extremity to prevent
further injury to the resident's foot/ankle.

This REQUIREMENT is not met as evidenced
by:
Based on interview and record review, the

of 19 sampled residents (Residents 14 and 20).
The physician had no documented written
progress notes of his/her eight months visits

This deficient practice placed the residents at

14 was readmitted to the facility on April 16,
2017 with diagnoses that included diabetes

Based on observation, interview and record
review, the facility failed to ensure residents
were free from unnecessary drugs for five of 19
sampled residents (Residents 9, 20, 21, 29,
and 34) by:
1. Failing to identify the presence of adverse
side effects such as tardive dyskinesia (facial
and tongue movements) for Resident 29. This
deficient practice placed at risk of falls, and
injuries.
2. Failing to monitor specific behavior for
Resident 34 who had a severe mental illness.
This deficient practice had the potential for the
resident not to be monitored for the
effectiveness and/or ineffective of medication.
3. Failing to adequate monitor a continuing
need for Celexa (an antidepressant medication)
for Resident 34. This deficient practice had the
potential to result in over use of medication.
4. Failing to adequate monitoring the side
effects of Quetiapine (an antipsychotic
medication-used to treat severe mental illness)
for Resident 9.
5. Failing to monitor specific behavior for
Resident 20 and Resident 21 who received
antipsychotic medication. This deficient
practice had the potential for the resident not to
be monitored for the effectiveness and/or
ineffective of medication and adjust the
medication as necessary.
Findings:
a. A review of the admission information
indicated Resident 29 was admitted to the
facility on November 23, 2017, with diagnoses

According to the facility's policy and procedure
titled "Antipsychotic Medication Use," revised
April 2007 indicated residents will only receive
antipsychotic medications when necessary to
treat specific conditions for which they are
indicated and effective. The attending physician

On December 23, 2017 at 10:30 a.m., during
an interview and observation, Certified Nursing
Assistant 1 (CNA 1) stated most of the time,
when the resident is sitting he does a jerky,
forward and backward movement constantly.
On December 23, 2017 at 2:39 p.m., during an

Activity Room sitting in a wheelchair and was
observed with resting tremors (involuntary
movements) in his left hand. The resident's
index finger of the hand was in contact with the
thumb, and was performing a circular

observation in the presence of Licensed
Vocational Nurse 1 (LVN 1), Resident 9 was
still in the activity room sitting in wheelchair and
was observed with resting tremors in his left
hand. During the concurrent interview, LVN 1
stated the tremors observed might be a side
effect of the antipsychotic medication. LVN 1
added that he will inform his Director of Nurses
and the physician.
A record review of Resident 9's Medication
Administration Record (MAR) from December
1, 2017 to December 23, 2017, indicated no
incident of tardive dyskinesia, cognitive
impairment, akathisia, and Parkinsonism.
A review of Resident 9's antipsychotic drug use
care plan dated November 29, 2017, indicated
a goal of resident will not have any side effects
from current medication for the next 3 months.
Interventions included monitor for antipsychotic
side effects like tardive dyskinesia, cognitive
impairment, akathisia, and Parkinsonism.

by:
Based on observation, interview and record
review, the facility failed to observe infection
control measures for three of 19 sampled
residents (Resident 18, Resident 15, and
Resident 34), and for all the residents in the
facility (Census of 30) by:
1. Failing to ensure clean linens are stored by
methods that safeguard cleanliness.
2. Failing to ensure that Resident 18's
respiratory care equipment that included
nebulizer (a device for breathing mist
treatment) tubing and oxygen tubing were
properly stored, and not touching the floor.
3. Failing to ensure the glucometer (a medical
device for determining the approximate
concentration of glucose in the blood) was
sanitized before storing the glucometer in the
medication cart (Resident 15 and Resident 34).
These deficient practices caused the potential
for the development and the spread of infection
and use of an unsanitary glucometer used to
monitor multiple resident's blood sugar and can
lead to spread of blood borne infections such
as hepatitis.

A summary report dated February 21, 2012, by
the The Centers for Disease Control and

during Blood Glucose Monitoring and Insulin
Administration indicates the CDC has become
increasingly concerned about the risks for
transmitting hepatitis B virus (HBV) and other
infectious diseases during assisted blood
glucose (blood sugar) monitoring and insulin
administration. CDC is alerting all persons who
assist others with blood glucose monitoring
and/or insulin administration of the following
infection control requirements: Whenever
possible, blood glucose meters should be
assigned to an individual person and not be
shared. If blood glucose meters must be
shared, the device should be cleaned and
disinfected after every use, per manufacturer's
instructions, to prevent carry-over of blood and
infectious agents. Unused supplies and
medications should be maintained in clean
areas separate from used supplies and
equipment (e.g., glucose meters).

§483.90(e)(1)(ii) Measure at least 80 square
feet per resident in multiple resident bedrooms,
and at least 100 square feet in single resident
rooms;
This REQUIREMENT is not met as evidenced
by:
Based on observation, interview, and record
review, the facility failed to meet the
requirement of 80 square feet per resident in
multiple resident bedrooms for seven (7) of 21
resident rooms, Room 6, 4, 2, 10, 14, 16 and
18. This failure had the potential to result in
inadequate space for the residents and can
impact the residents' quality of life or quality of
care.
Findings:
During an observation of the resident's rooms
on December 23, 2017 at 8:30 a.m., there were
no concerns observed regarding space in
Room 6, 4, 2, 10, 14, 16 and 18. At the time of
the observation, the rooms provided enough
space for care, dignity, privacy, and resident
equipment. There was ample room for the
residents to move about freely. There were no
concerns observed related to the space or to
the safe provision of care to the residents
residing in the rooms.
During an interview with residents during the
Group Interview on December 23, 2017, at
