The findings included: Resident #2 was admitted with [DIAGNOSES REDACTED]. On 9/24/12 at 5:15PM Resident #2 was observed lying in bed with the urine catheter bag hanging off the side of her bed facing the door without a dignity bag for cover. On 9/25/12 at 9:40AM Resident #2 was receiving therapy in her room. The staff conducting the therapy was holding the urine catheter bag in one hand without a dignity bag. The door to the room was open and the care given was observed. At 2:25PM the urine catheter bag was again observed without a dignity bag. An interview on 9/25/12 at 9:15AM with Social Worker #1 stated residents are supposed to have a dignity bag to cover catheter bags. On 9/25/12 at 9:21AM Registered Nurse #1 confirmed no dignity bag used to cover resident's urine catheter bag. During a random observation of of dinner on 9/24/12 at approximately 4:55 PM the surveyor observed residents in the 200 dining/day room at a table eating. Further observation revealed tray lids from the tray on the center of the table with trash in it. Observation on 9/25/12 during a lunch revealed tray lids on the table with trash inside of them while residents were eating. During an interview with Certified Assistant #1 she confirmed the findings and then removed the lids. The New Dining Practice Standards states Food and dining are an integral part of individualized care and self-directed living for several reasons, including: (1) the complexity of food and dining requirements when advancing models of culture change; (2) the importance of food and dining as a significant element of daily living.	2016-12-01
