(iii) Facilities are permitted to contract with
other entities to furnish this information but are
still legally responsible for ensuring that the
requirements of this section are met.
(iv) If an adult individual is incapacitated at the

A review of Resident 75's Minimum Data Set
(MDS - a standardized comprehensive

November 16, 2017, indicated the resident was
moderate impairment of cognitive skills for daily
decision making. The resident required
extensive assistance with one person physical
assistance with bed mobility, dressing, toilet
use, and personal hygiene.
On December 27, 2017 at 10:35 a.m., during
an observation, RNA 3 was observed
performing PROM exercise to Resident 75's
hip and left hand fingers. RNA 3 did not pull the
privacy curtain to provide Resident 75 full
visual privacy. During the ROM exercise,
Resident 75's roommate was sitting in his
wheelchair and was sometimes looking at RNA
3 and Resident 75.
On December 27, 2017 at 10:55 a.m., during
an interview, RNA 3 stated she forgot to pull
the privacy curtain. RNA 3 stated she should
have pulled the curtain to maintain Resident
75's privacy during ROM exercise.
A review of the facility's undated policy titled
"Personal Privacy" indicated the residents have
right to personal privacy. Pulling the privacy
curtain is a way to preserve privacy.
On December 28, 2017 at 9:22 a.m., during an
interview, the Director of Nursing (DON) stated
the RNA was to maintain the resident's privacy
during the procedure by pulling the privacy
curtain or lock the door.

Based on observation, interview, and record
review, the facility failed to develop and
implement a comprehensive person-centered
care plan for two of 35 sample residents
(Resident 52, Resident 78) by:
1. Failing to assess and develop individualized
interventions to address the refusal of blood
sugar monitoring and/or insulin (a medication to
control blood sugar level) for Resident 52.
2. Failing to implement the care plan
intervention to observe aspiration (breathing in
a foreign object) precautions for (Resident 78).
These deficient practices had the potential to
result in complications associated with
uncontrolled blood sugar (eye problems and
kidney problems) for Resident 52, and to result
in Resident 78 who has a history of pneumonia
(lung inflammation), coughing and choking
while eating and can lead to pneumonia.
Findings:
a. A review of the admission record indicated
Resident 52 was admitted to the facility on
January 20, 2015 and readmitted on April 8,
2016, with diagnoses that included diabetes
(high blood sugar), hypertension (high blood
pressure), and benign prostatic hyperplasia

indicated the resident was originally admitted to
the facility on July 31, 2012 and readmitted on
January 6, 2017, with a diagnoses of, but not
limited to, dysphagia (difficulty swallowing),
chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD
- a chronic inflammatory lung disease that
causes obstructed airflow from the lungs), and
generalized muscle weakness.
A review of Resident 78's History and Physical
Examination signed by the resident's physician
on January 1, 2017, indicated the resident was
transferred from the acute hospital after
treatment of pneumonia (lung inflammation
caused by bacterial or viral infection). The
record also indicated Resident 78 has
diagnosis of, but not limited to, congestive
heart failure (heart muscle is weakened and
cannot pump enough blood to meet the body's
needs for blood and oxygen).
A review of Resident 78's Quarterly Minimum
Data Set (MDS- a standardized assessment
and screening tool) dated November 14, 2017,
indicated the resident has severe cognitive
impairment, is able to make self understood,
and is able to understand others. The tool
indicated the resident needs limited assistance
with eating and toilet use and needs extensive
assistance with bed mobility, transfers, walking
in corridor, dressing, and personal hygiene.

upon initial SLP (ST - Speech Therapy)
evaluation, the resident was on the safest diet
which is the current diet Resident 78 is on. SLP
stated Resident 78's treatment had been
completed for possible advanced diet but the
resident was not able to safely tolerate the

discharged from SLP treatment with
recommendations. SLP stated the following
recommendations were given to the Nursing
Department: continue with the recommended
diet texture and to observe general safe
swallowing precautions which are to sit upright
when eating, to take small bites slowly, and to
reduce distractions. SLP stated she informed

During an interview with Licensed Vocational
Nurse 3 (LVN 3) on December 28, 2017 at 8:01
a.m., while LVN 3 was reviewing Resident 41's
Location of Administration Reports for
December 2017 for Lantus and Novolin R, LVN
3 was asked on the possible side effect of
injecting insulin on the same site. LVN 3
answered the medication won't be absorbed
and so it will be ineffective.
A review of the facility's undated policies and
procedures titled "Insulin Injection
Administration," indicated the policy to control
the blood glucose levels in patients with DM
through the correct administration of insulin.
The facility's policies and procedures indicated
to rotate injection sites.
A review of Lantus manufacturer's literature
revised in March 2007 indicated as with any
insulin therapy, lipodystrophy may occur at the
injection site and delay insulin absorption.
Other injection site reactions with insulin
therapy include redness, pain, itching, hives
(red and sometimes itchy bumps on the skin),
swelling, and inflammation. Continuous rotation
of the injection site within a given area may
help to reduce or prevent these reactions.
A review of Novolin R manufacturer's literature
revised in February 2012, indicated Novolin R
should be administered by subcutaneous
injection in the abdominal region, buttocks,
thigh, or the upper arm. Injection sites should
be rotated within the same region to reduce the
risk of lipodystrophy.

Resident 35 was originally admitted to the
facility on June 2, 2017, and readmitted on
September 19, 2017, with diagnoses that
included muscle weakness and chronic
obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD- a lung
disease characterized by long-term poor
airflow).
A review of a Minimum Data Set (MDS- a
comprehensive assessment and screening
tool) dated September 26, 2017, indicated
Resident 35 had intact cognition (mental action
or process of acquiring knowledge and
understanding). The MDS indicated the
resident required extensive assistance for
transfer, bed mobility, dressing, toilet use, and
personal hygiene.
A review of Resident 35's physician order dated
September 19, 2017, indicated to administer
Doxazosin Mesylate tablet 4 milligram (mg) by
mouth two times a day for hypertension and to
hold medication for systolic blood pressure
(SBP) below 125 millimeters of mercury
(mmHg -the units used to measure blood
pressure. Below 120 systolic and below 80
diastolic is considered a normal adult blood
pressure).
A review of Resident 35's Medication
Administration Record (MAR) indicated
Doxazosin Mesylate tablet was administered to

§483.24(c)(1) The facility must provide, based
on the comprehensive assessment and care
plan and the preferences of each resident, an
ongoing program to support residents in their
choice of activities, both facility-sponsored
group and individual activities and independent
activities, designed to meet the interests of and
support the physical, mental, and psychosocial
well-being of each resident, encouraging both
independence and interaction in the
community.
This REQUIREMENT is not met as evidenced
by:
Based on observation, interview, and record
review, the facility failed to ensure one out of
35 sampled residents (Resident 107) identified
with low function was provided with activities
that stimulates the resident's senses.
This deficient practice had the potential not to
meet the highest practicable psychosocial wellbeing of the resident.
Findings:
A review of Resident 107's admission record
indicated an initial admission to the facility on
June 14, 2016 and the most recent
readmission dated October 31, 2017, with
diagnoses including dysphasia (language
disorder marked by deficiency in the generation
of speech, and sometimes also in its
comprehension, due to brain disease or
damage), abnormal posture, and osteoporosis

As a result, Resident 107's healed pressure
sore on the coccyx reopened, and between
October 5, 2017 and October 16, 2017, the
resident's pressure sore worsened to a stage 4
pressure sore (full thickness tissue loss with
exposed bone, tendon, or muscle), and
Resident 4 was placed at additional risk for
developing pressure sores.
Findings:
a. A review of the Admission Record indicated
Resident 107 was initially admitted to the
facility on June 14, 2016, with the most recent
readmission on October 31, 2017, with
diagnoses including abnormal posture,
osteoporosis (a bone disease that occurs when
the body loses too much bone makes too little
bone, or both), and pressure sore (injury to skin
and underlying tissue resulting from prolonged
pressure on the skin).
The body assessment dated September 6,
2017, indicated Resident 107 did not have any
skin breakdown and was noted with an old scar
on the coccyx (a bone at the base of the spinal
column) area.

A review of the Care Plan developed on
September 15, 2017, for Resident 107's
potential for pressure sore development related
to impaired bed mobility and incontinence of
bowel and bladder functions, had a goal for
Resident 107 to have intact skin, free of
redness, blisters or discoloration through
review date. The interventions included
administering treatment as ordered and
monitoring effectiveness; educating the
resident/family/caregivers as to causes of skin
breakdown, and follow the facility's
policies/protocols for the prevention/treatment
of skin breakdown. The wound evaluation flow
sheet indicated the resident was treated with

On December 21, 2017 at 10:13 a.m., during
an observation in the presence of Certified
Nursing Assistant 1 (CNA 1), Resident 107 was
lying in bed. During a concurrent interview,
CNA 1 stated the resident had a pressure sore.
On December 22, 2017 at 9:20 a.m., during a
wound care treatment observation, Resident
107 was lying in bed, on a low air loss (LAL)
mattress, Licensed Vocational Nurse 2 (LVN 2)
removed the soiled dressing, irrigated (washed)
the wound with normal saline (salt water) and
described the wound as Stage 4 pressure sore
with 95% pink wound bed and slight whitish
tissue.
On December 22, 2017 at 2:14 p.m., during an
interview, LVN 1 stated Resident 107
developed an unstageable pressure sore on
October 12, 2017. LVN 1 stated if ordered, the
LAL mattress is received within 24 hours. LVN
1 stated she could not explain why the LAL
mattress was not ordered before the pressure
sore deteriorated. (The wound evaluation
flowsheet indicated a low air loss mattress was
added as a current preventative intervention on
October 16, 2017.

is responsible to initiate the use of appropriate
prevention protocols: prevent pressure, skin
care, prevent shearing/friction, nutrition, control
of incontinence, pressure relief.
A review of the facility's undated policy and
procedure titled, "Wound Management and
Skin Integrity," indicated wound management
minutes should include: meeting dates,
members present, resident reviewed and any
necessary follow-up. The procedure includes
frequency of assessment (changes in condition
with a potential to trigger a care plan for
pressure sores) and discussion terms
(interdisciplinary goals, resident's progress,
resident's identifies with condition, equipment
needs/revision, and care planning).

As a result, by December 21, 2017, Resident
107 had limited (decline) ROM to her lower
extremities joints, left elbow, right wrist, and
right hand fingers. This also resulted in placing
Residents 93, 75 and 4, at increased risk for
ROM decline.
Findings:
a. A review of Resident 107's admission record
indicated an initial admission to the facility on
June 14, 2016 and the most recent
readmission was on October 31, 2017, with
diagnoses including abnormal posture,
osteoporosis (a bone disease that occurs when
the body loses too much bone, makes too little
bone, or both), and high blood pressure.
A review of Resident 107's quarterly Minimum

Resident 107 had functional limitation in ROM
to both sides of her upper and lower
extremities.
A review of the Joint Mobility Assessment
(JMA) dated November 1, 2017, indicated
Resident 107 had ROM within functional
limitation (variance due to normal aging
process allowed) to her left and right hip, knee,
and ankle, left elbow, right wrist, and right hand
fingers joints.
The physician's orders dated November 1,
2017, indicated the followings:
1. Restorative Nursing Assistant (RNA) to
perform passive range of motion (PROM no
participation of the resident) exercise to both
(right and left) upper extremities and lower
extremities seven times a week or as tolerated.
2. RNA to apply right elbow splint for 4 to 6
hours or as tolerated with skin check, seven
times a week, one time a day.
A review of Resident 107's care plan dated
November 1, 2017, indicated the resident was
at risk for decline in ROM. The care plan goal
indicated Resident 107 will maintain current
ROM. The interventions indicated for the RNA
to perform gentle PROM exercise to both (right
and left) upper and lower extremities and apply
right elbow splint for 4 to 6 hours or as
tolerated with skin check.

A review of Resident 107's RNA weekly
progress notes dated November 15, 2017,
indicated the resident's overall participation
was uncooperative and her overall tolerance to
the ROM exercises was fair.
A review of the Quarterly JMA dated December

On December 21, 2017 at 02:01 p.m., during
an observation in the presence of RNA 1
(assisting), RNA 2 was observed performing
PROM exercise for Resident 107. The resident
was grimacing and moaning at times during
ROM exercises. RNA 2 was observed to not
fully perform PROM as follows:
Right and left extremities range of motion
RNA 2 did not attempt and/or perform flexion
and extension (bending and straightening) of
the left shoulder, left and right wrist, left and
right hip, and left and right toes; abduction and
adduction (moving away and into starting
position)of the right and left shoulder, and left
and right hip; ulnar and radial deviation (moving
wrist side to side) of the left and right wrist;
plantar flexion and dorsiflexion (moving foot up
and down) of the left and right ankles. During
observation, Resident 107 had limited ROM to
the right shoulder, left hand fingers, right and
left elbows, knees, and elbows.

On December 21, 2017, during an interview
after performing the PROM exercises to
Resident 107, RNA 2 stated she only
performed PROM to the knees and right elbow
because the resident was contracted (a
condition of shortening and hardening of
muscles, tendons, or other tissue, often leading
to deformity and rigidity of joints). RNA 2 stated
she did not perform PROM to the feet, hips,
and left shoulder because RNA focused on the
contracted knees and right elbow. RNA 2
stated she did not perform PROM to left
shoulder because by performing PROM to left
elbow, she was also exercising the left
shoulder.
On December 22, 2017 at 9:53 a.m., during an
interview in the presence of Occupational
Therapist 1 (OT 1), and Physical Therapist (PT
1), stated he did not see any problems with the
RNAs performing ROM exercises, when
conducting random competency skills
evaluation of the RNAs. PT 1 and OT 1 stated
they instructed the RNAs to provide ROM
exercises as follow: flexion/extension of the hip,
knee, wrist, ankle, shoulder, elbow, hand digits,
and metacarpal (MCP bones of the hand)
joints, abduction/adduction of the shoulder and
hip joints. PT 1 and OT 1 stated the
rehabilitation department did not have a
resource material and/or manual on how to
perform ROM exercises. PT 1 and OT 1 stated
the expectation was for the RNAs to provide
ROM exercises to all the resident' joints as
instructed. Per OT 1, RNA 2 should have
performed ROM to each joint because
Resident 107 had limited ROM of her upper
extremities.
On December 22, 2017 at 10:11 a.m., during
observation, Physical Therapist 1 (PT 1)
assessed the ROM of Resident 107's right and

ROM to her knees (unable to extend the
knees). Per PT 1, resident was "tight". During
a concurrent interview, PT 1 stated he was
unable to assess Resident 107's hip joints to
be within functional limit because her knees
needed to be straight (extended). PT 1 stated
he did not want to force it (continue assessing
Resident 107's hip). Resident 107 was
grimacing and moaning at times during the
assessment; she would bring her knees toward
her body when PT 1 attempted to straighten
them.
On December 22, 2017, during an observation
following PT 1's assessment, Occupational
Therapist 1 (OT 1) assessed the ROM of
Resident 107's upper extremities. Per OT 1,
Resident 107 was tight, which resulted in
Resident 107 having limited ROM to the
following joints: right shoulder flexion: moderate
to severe, right shoulder abduction moderate
to severe, right elbow extension (severe), right
wrist (moderate to severe), right fingers
metacarpal (minimal to moderate), left shoulder
(moderate limitation for extension and
abduction), left elbow flexion (minimal to
moderate OT 1 stated resident was resisting).
On December 22, 2017 at 01:53 p.m., during a
follow up interview, RNA 2, stated she had
been working with Resident 107 about once a
week. RNA 2 stated Resident 107 had limited
ROM to her knees (unable to straighten knee).
RNA 2 stated the RNAs and therapists (PT/OT)
knew about the limitation. RNA 2 stated
Resident 107 was unable to have her knees'
ROM within functional limit even when she was
not in pain and/or stiff. RNA 2 stated she did
not personally report Resident 107's limitation.
On December 22, 2017 02:50 p.m., during an
interview, RNA 1 stated Resident 107's ROM of
her knees had been limited since working with

stated she was unable to perform full ROM to
Resident 107's knees (unable to extend the
knees). RNA 1 also stated Resident 107's
knees could not be fully extended even when
the resident was relaxed and not tense/stiff.
On December 22, 2017 at 05:50 p.m., during
an observation, the Director of Nursing (DON)
attempted to assess Resident 107's ROM. The
DON was unable to assess the ROM of the
resident's lower extremities (unable to extend
the legs). Resident 107 was moaning and
grimacing. During a concurrent interview, the
DON stated Resident 107 was "tense" at the
time and she would stop the ROM assessment
to request for pain medication.
On December 27, 2017 at 08:10 a.m., during a
phone interview, Resident 107's family member
(FM 1) stated Resident 107's legs "were
stretched out more" when she was initially
admitted to the facility in June 2016. FM 1
stated Resident 107 had been more in a fetal
position (in this position, the back is curved, the
head is bowed, and the limbs are bent and
drawn up to the torso) since insertion of the
gastrostomy tube [GT a tube inserted into the
stomach through a surgical incision use for
feeding and administration of medication for a
resident unable to swallow]. FM 1 stated she
did not remember when the GT was inserted,
maybe a couple of months ago.

provide documented evidence the physician
was notified of Resident 107's limited ROM.
LVN 1 stated if the resident was uncooperative
or combative, the RNA should have stopped
the treatment (ROM exercise) and notified the
licensed nurse.

hand/fingers seven times a week as tolerated
one time a day.
A review of Resident 75's care plan dated
September 13, 2017, indicated the resident
was at risk for decline in ROM and contracture
formation due to limited mobility. The care plan
goal indicated Resident 93 will maintain current
ROM for three months. The interventions
indicated to change the resident position every
two hours and as needed, provide RNA
exercises daily as tolerated, and apply hand roll
daily.
A review of Resident 75's Minimum Data Set
(MDS - a standardized comprehensive
assessment and care planning tool) dated
November 16, 2017, indicated the resident had
moderate impairment of cognitive skills for daily
decision making. The resident required
extensive assistance with one person physical
assistance with bed mobility, dressing, toilet
use, and personal hygiene. The MDS indicated
the resident had functional limitation in ROM to
both sides of his lower (hip, knee, ankle, and
foot) extremities and to his upper (shoulder,
elbow, wrist, and hand).
A review of the Joint Mobility Assessment
(JMA) dated November 16, 2017, indicated
Resident 75 had ROM within functional
limitation (variance due to normal aging
process allowed) to his shoulders, hips, knees,
elbows, wrists, and hand fingers joints.

§483.25(k) Pain Management.
The facility must ensure that pain management
is provided to residents who require such
services, consistent with professional
standards of practice, the comprehensive
person-centered care plan, and the residents'
goals and preferences.
This REQUIREMENT is not met as evidenced
by:
Based on observation, interview and record
review, the nursing staff failed to monitor and
provide pain management for two of 35
sampled residents (Residents 1 and 107), who
was experiencing pain during range of motion
(ROM - the extent of movement of a joint)
exercise.
This deficient practice had the potential for
residents to experience unnecessary pain.
Findings:
a. A review of Resident 107's admission record
indicated an initial admission to the facility on
June 14, 2016 and the most recent
readmission dated October 31, 2017, with
diagnoses including abnormal posture,
osteoporosis (a bone disease that occurs when
the body loses too much bone makes too little
bone, or both), and high blood pressure.

September 12, 2017, indicated the resident
was rarely able to understand others and rarely
made herself understood. The resident
required total assistance with one person
physical assistance with bed mobility, toilet
use, and personal hygiene. The MDS also
indicated that Resident 107 did not have
indicators of pain or possible pain.
A review of the Resident 107's physician's
orders indicated the followings:
1. Acetaminophen (Tylenol) tablet 325
milligrams (mg), give 650 mg via gastrostomy
tube (GT- a tube inserted into the stomach
through a surgical incision use for feeding and
administration of medication for a resident
unable to swallow) every four hours as needed
for mild pain (pain level one to three on a zero
to 10 pain rating scale), dated October 31,
2017.
2. Restorative Nursing Assistant (RNA) to
perform passive range of motion (PROM - no
participation of the resident) exercise to both
(right and left) upper extremities and lower
extremities seven times a week or as tolerated,
dated November 1, 2017.
A review of Resident 107's care plan revised
on November 1, 2017, indicated the resident
had the potential for alteration in
comfort/potential for pain related to

On December 27, 2017 at 9:19 a.m., during an
observation, RNA 3 was observed performing
PROM exercise to Resident 107. Resident 107
was opening her eyes and mouth wide and
pulling back her extremities during ROM
exercises.
A review of Resident 107's Medication
Administration Record (MAR) for the months of
November 2017 and December 2017, did not
indicated that the resident received Tylenol as
needed for pain.
On December 27, 2017 at 9:53 a.m., during an
interview, Licensed Vocational Nurse 1 stated
that she reviewed Resident 107's MAR for the
month of December 2017 and could not find
documented evidence the resident received
pain medication (Tylenol) before, during, or
after ROM exercise. LVN 1 also stated the
RNAs were not documenting the specific time
they performed ROM exercise to the residents.
On December 28, 2017 at 9:13 a.m., during an
interview, the Director of Nursing (DON) stated
that the RNAs were instructed to stop
performing ROM exercise if a resident was
experiencing pain during the exercise, and
notify the charge nurse. The DON stated that
she reviewed Resident 107's MAR dated
December 21, 2017, and could not find
documented evidence Resident 107 received
Tylenol (for mild pain) around the time of the
ROM exercises (2:01 p.m.). The DON also
stated that she reviewed the nurses' notes and
could not find documented evidence RNA 2
reported the resident's pain to the charge
nurse.
On December 28, 2017 at 12:31 p.m., during a
follow-up interview, LVN 1 stated that she

the licensed nursing staff and the RNAs were
monitoring for pain and/or stiffness as indicated
in the care plan intervention.
On December 28, 2017 at 3:20 p.m., during an
interview, PT 1 stated that it was the
expectation of the RNA to notify charge nurse if
a resident experienced pain or stiffness, and/or
exhibited resistive behavior during ROM
exercises.
A review of the facility's undated policy and
procedure titled "Range of Motion Exercises"
indicated that the purpose of the procedure
was to exercise the resident's joints and
muscles. Review the resident's care plan to
assess for any special needs of the resident.
Document the date and time the exercise was
performed, if and how the resident participated
in the procedure or any changes in resident's
ability to participate in the procedure, any
problems or complaints made by the resident
related to the procedure. Notify the charge
nurse or supervisor if the resident refuses the
exercises. Report other information in
accordance with the facility policy and
professional standards of practice.

a.m., in the presence of Registered Nurse 1
(RN 1), the Lantus SoloStar prefilled pen
ordered for Resident 41 from the refrigerator
had a manufacturer's label that indicated a full
prefilled pen should have a total of 300 units.
Resident 41's Lantus SoloStar pen had 80
units left. Resident 41's Lantus SoloStar pen
did not indicate the date on when it was
opened to readily identify on when it should be
discarded.
During an interview with RN 1 on December
20, 2017 at 11:26 a.m., RN 1 stated the
licensed nurse should have written the date on
when Resident 41's Lantus SoloStar pen was
opened. When asked on the consequence of
not writing the opened date, RN 1 stated that
they don't know the expiration date of the
insulin and so there's a risk for side effects.
A review of the facility's undated policies and
procedures titled "Administering Medications,"
indicated medications shall be administered in
a safe and timely manner, and as prescribed.
The policies and procedures indicated to place
the date on the container when opening a
multi-dose container.
A review of the facility's undated policies and
procedures titled "Insulin, Storage/Expiration

pharmaceutical practice, to maintain proper
storage and monitor expiration of insulin. All
insulin vials, cartridge and pen of insulin must
be dated when opened. As a general policy,
insulin in use, regardless of storage, must be
discarded after four (4) weeks. Whenever
possible and applicable, facility shall follow

for Lexapro (a medication used to treat anxiety
in adults and major depression in adults and
adolescents) was complete with the signature

This deficient practice had the potential to
result in confusion in the care and services for
Resident 41 and Resident 88 and placed the
resident at risk of receiving unwanted treatment
and not receiving appropriate care based on
her wishes due to incomplete resident medical
care information.
Findings:
a. A review of Resident 41's Admission Record
indicated the resident was originally admitted to
the facility on October 12, 2017.
A review of Resident 41's Order Summary
Report indicated the resident has diagnoses of,
but not limited to, history of transient ischemic
attack (TIA - also called a mini-stroke, is a
neurological event with the signs and
symptoms of a stroke [the sudden death of
brain cells in a localized area due to
inadequate blood flow], but which go away

(a brain lesion in which a cluster of brain cells
die when they don't get enough blood),
hypertension (elevated blood pressure), and
type 2 diabetes mellitus (a chronic condition
that affects the way the body processes blood
sugar).

A review of Resident 41's Physician Orders for
Life-Sustaining Treatment (POLST - a portable
medical order form that records patients'
treatment wishes so that emergency personnel
know what treatments the patient wants in the
event of a medical emergency, taking the
patient's current medical condition into
consideration. A POLST form is not an
advance directive.) prepared on October 13,
2017 by Director of Social Services (DSS),
indicated that having the physician sign
indicates to the best of the physician's
knowledge that the orders are consistent with
the patient's medical condition and
preferences. The POLST did not have the
signature of Resident 41's physician.
During an interview with Licensed Vocational
Nurse 1 (LVN 1), on December 28, 2017 at
8:54 a.m., while LVN 1 reviewed Resident 41's
records, LVN 1 stated that when the resident's
physician comes to the facility, the physician
should sign the form. LVN 1 stated the nursing
staff and medical records should remind the
doctor and check if everything that required
signing was signed.
According to the National POLST Paradigm,
since the POLST is a medical order, a
healthcare professional is required to sign it in
order for it to be valid. The form has a
statement saying that, by signing the form, the
healthcare professional agrees that the orders
on the form match what treatments the patient
said he/she wanted during a medical
emergency based on his/her medical condition
today (http://www.ohsu.edu/polst/).

the resident had the capacity to understand

A review of Resident 88's physician order

On December 21, 2017 at 3:52 p.m. during an

2. Failing to ensure Resident 88's consent form
for Lexapro (a medication used to treat anxiety
in adults and major depression in adults and
adolescents) was complete with the signature
of the physician.
This deficient practice had the potential to
result in confusion in the care and services for
Resident 41 and Resident 88 and placed the
resident at risk of receiving unwanted treatment
and not receiving appropriate care based on
her wishes due to incomplete resident medical
care information.
Findings:
a. A review of Resident 41's Admission Record
indicated the resident was originally admitted to
the facility on October 12, 2017.
A review of Resident 41's Order Summary
Report indicated the resident has diagnoses of,
but not limited to, history of transient ischemic
attack (TIA - also called a mini-stroke, is a
neurological event with the signs and
symptoms of a stroke [the sudden death of
brain cells in a localized area due to
inadequate blood flow], but which go away
within a short period of time), cerebral infarction
(a brain lesion in which a cluster of brain cells
die when they don't get enough blood),

that affects the way the body processes blood
sugar).

A review of Resident 41's Admission Minimum
Data Set (MDS- a standardized assessment
and screening tool) dated October 19, 2017,
indicated the resident has intact cognition, is
able to make self understood, and is able to
understand others. The tool indicated the
resident needs limited assistance with walking,
toilet use and personal hygiene and needs
extensive assistance with bed mobility,
transfers, locomotion, dressing, and eating.
A review of Resident 41's Physician Orders for
Life-Sustaining Treatment (POLST - a portable
medical order form that records patients'
treatment wishes so that emergency personnel
know what treatments the patient wants in the
event of a medical emergency, taking the
patient's current medical condition into
consideration. A POLST form is not an
advance directive.) prepared on October 13,
2017 by Director of Social Services (DSS),
indicated that having the physician sign
indicates to the best of the physician's
knowledge that the orders are consistent with
the patient's medical condition and
preferences. The POLST did not have the
signature of Resident 41's physician.
During an interview with Licensed Vocational
Nurse 1 (LVN 1), on December 28, 2017 at
8:54 a.m., while LVN 1 reviewed Resident 41's
records, LVN 1 stated that when the resident's
physician comes to the facility, the physician
should sign the form. LVN 1 stated the nursing
staff and medical records should remind the
doctor and check if everything that required
signing was signed.
According to the National POLST Paradigm,
since the POLST is a medical order, a
healthcare professional is required to sign it in
order for it to be valid. The form has a

b. A review of the admission record indicated
Resident 88 was admitted on October 3, 2017,
with diagnoses including diabetes mellitus (a
group of diseases that result in too much sugar
in the blood), and major depression.
A review of Resident 88's history and physical
examination dated October 5, 2017, indicated
the resident had the capacity to understand
and make decisions.
A review of Resident 88's physician order
indicated Lexapro 20 milligram (mg), 1 tablet
was to be given by mouth daily for depression
manifested by verbalization of sad feeling.
A review of the Informed Consent Verification
form dated October 3, 2017, indicated the
physician was to verify he obtained consent for
the use of Lexapro (an antidepressant
medication) by filling out and signing the
consent form. However, the physician's
signature section of the consent form was
blank.
A review of the Medication Administration
Record (MAR) indicated Resident 88 received
Lexapro 20 mg every day at 9 a.m., from
October 4, 2017 to December 21, 2017.
On December 21, 2017 at 3:52 p.m. during an
interview, the Registered Nurse (RN 2)
confirmed there was no physician signature on
the consent form for Lexapro. RN 2 stated the
consent form should have been signed by the
physician.
