Part I -- Based on comments from a random resident, observation, staff interview, review of facility policy "1.84 Smoking", and medical record review, the facility failed to provide a resident environment as free of accident hazards as is possible, as evidenced by allowing Resident #53 to smoke in the "smoker's lounge" while using oxygen. Three (3) other residents were also present in the smoker's lounge at this time. This practice placed more than an isolated number of residents in immediate jeopardy of harm or death due to the potential of combustion of the oxygen. The immediate jeopardy situation was removed when Resident #53 was removed from the smoker's lounge after the surveyor and the facility's administrator verified, at 4:45 p.m., that the resident's oxygen tank was turned on and oxygen was actively flowing through his nasal cannula. The administrator was informed of the immediate jeopardy determination at 4:55 p.m. on 01/04/11, after the survey team conferred by telephone with the program manager of the State survey and certification agency. On 01/04/11 at 5:10 p.m., the administrator stated he was going to remove Resident #53's smoking privileges due to the resident not safely smoking independently. At 5:20 p.m., the administrator was observed by another surveyor removing Resident #53's smoking materials. At 5:28 p.m., the administrator reported Resident #53's care plan was updated to address this issue, and staff was educated regarding this matter. The administrator submitted an action plan to address dependent smokers who also use oxygen. The plan outlined suspension of smoking privileges by Resident #53, evaluation of the remaining independent smokers (with no further smokers having been identified as also using portable oxygen tanks), and that, on 01/05/11, the facility's quality assurance (QA) committee would "hold a special meeting to introduce new policy relating to Independent Smokers who have physician orders that include use of oxygen."

Resident identifiers: #72 and #65. Facility census: 113. Findings include: a) Resident #72 Record review revealed this [AGE] year old male resident had [DIAGNOSES REDACTED]. Review of the medication changes since 01/01/10 to present found the dosage for Klonopin (a benzodiazepine) had remained the same. Review of the current physician's orders [REDACTED]. The medication had been ordered for behaviors manifested by verbal outbursts and / or hitting. He was noted to have dementia with behavioral disturbances. On 03/14/10, the pharmacist had issued a consultation report that included, "(Resident's name) behavior medications are up for annual review for dosage reduction. He is on: [MEDICATION NAME] 20 mg daily Klonopin 0.5 mg TID (three (3) times a day)." The recommendation from the pharmacist was: "Please consider a gradual dose reduction, perhaps decreasing the Klonopin to BID (two (2) times a day) while concurrently monitoring for re-emergence of target and / or withdrawal symptoms. If therapy is to continue at the current dose, please provide rationale describing a dose reduction as clinically contraindicated." For "Rationale for Recommendation", the report had: "Federal nursing facility regulations require that a gradual dosage reduction (GDR) be attempted in two separate quarters within the first year in which and individual is admitted on a psychopharmacologic medication or after the facility has initiated such medication, and then annually UNLESS CLINICALLY CONTRAINDICATED."

Based on comments from a random resident, observation, staff interview, review of facility policy "1.84 Smoking", and medical record review, the facility's quality assessment and assurance (QAA) committee failed to identify quality deficiencies of which it was - or should have been - aware which were reflective of system failures in the area of accident hazards, and failed to develop and implement appropriate plans of action to correct these quality deficiencies. On 04/02/10 and 07/23/10, Resident #53 had been assessed as being unsafe to smoke independently due, in part, to his use of oxygen. On 10/23/10, the assessor (Employee #38, a registered nurse) determined he was permitted to smoke independently even though he continued to use oxygen, which was contrary to the directions on the Smoking Evaluation tool, noting that "resident turns off oxygen to smoke". This Smoking Evaluation also was marked by the assessor to indicate that Resident #53's care plan had been updated to address this; however, review of the care plan in effect for Resident #53 at the time of the immediate jeopardy found no mention of smoking. On the afternoon of 01/04/11, Resident #53 was found to be smoking in the facility's "smoker's lounge" with his oxygen tank turned on and oxygen actively flowing through his nasal cannula. This practice placed Resident #53 and three (3) other residents who were present in the smoker's lounge in immediate jeopardy of harm or death due to the potential of combustion of the oxygen. The immediate jeopardy situation was removed when Resident #53 was removed from the smoker's lounge after the surveyor and the facility's administrator verified, at 4:45 p.m., that the resident's oxygen tank was turned on and oxygen was actively flowing through his nasal cannula. In subsequent interviews, the administrator reported having been aware that Resident #53 had been observed outside smoking with his oxygen on and that he (the administrator) would periodically monitor the resident to be sure his oxygen was turned off.

At 1:45 p.m. on 03/16/11, an interview was conducted with the director of nursing (DON - Employee #45). When asked for evidence the required information was provided to the resident and a family member or legal representative, the DON stated the information was included in a packet of information which the facility sent to the hospital with Emergency Medical Services (EMS) upon transfer. Further interview revealed the facility was unable to provide evidence this information was sent with the resident; and there was no evidence a family member or legal representative was also provided the written bed-hold policy when Resident #102 was transferred to the hospital. In addition, the facility had no means of assuring the resident and a family member or legal representative got this information, since it was included in a packet of medical information intended for the hospital. On 03/17/11 at 9:00 a.m., a discussion was held with the facility's administrator (ADM - Employee #10), regarding the provision of a written bed-hold policy to the resident and a family member or legal representative upon transfer to the hospital.
