Findings include: During a review of the facility provided matrix, it was noted that R16 was coded for a fall. Further record review revealed that R16 fell on [DATE] at 03:45 PM while ambulating on the unit, staff assistance, using a gait trainer (a wheeled walking assist device). A review of the Incident Event Report describes, on 7/30/19 R16 fell with the gait trainer on its side. Activity aide (AA)1 documented R16 may have gotten tangled in the portable pulse oximeter (on R16's toe) cord. The report identified balance/gait impairment as the only contributing factor. As a result of the fall, R16 sustained swelling, bump to the left posterior skull. A review of the daily skilled nurse's note, registered nurse (RN)1 documented on 07/30/19 (day shift), At 15:50 resident fell from gait trainer in common area Bump noted to L (left) posterior head.

As a result of this deficient practice, R16 was at a greater risk for falling. Findings include: On 07/30/19 at 03:45 PM, R16 fell while using a gait trainer (a wheeled walking assist device) to assist in walking around the facility. R16 is a seven (7) year old resident and is one of three residents that ambulate in the facility. A review of the Incident Event Report provided by the director of nursing (DON) documented, She (R16) was on the gait trainer & I (activity aide, AA1) glanced away briefly to my table then I looked back & she (R16) was falling with the gait trainer on it's side. It seemed like maybe she got tangled in her portable pulse ox. but prior to this, she was walking fine for about 20 minutes. The report identified balance/gait impairment as the only contributing factor. As a result of the fall, R16 sustained swelling, bump the the L posterior skull. On 07/30/19 (day shift), registered nurse (RN)1 documented in a progress note, At 15:50 resident fell from gait trainer in common area .Bump noted to L (left) posterior head.

She hit the top of her right occiput on the floor. On 11/06/19 at 01:04 PM observed R16 ambulating on unit with staff, using the gait trainer and the pulse oximeter was located on R16's foot. On 11/07/19 at approximately 11:00 AM, observed R16 ambulating on the unit with staff, using the gait trainer, with one shoe lace untied. The shoelace dragging on the floor was approximately 6 inches long, potentially a fall risk. On 11/08/19 at 09:45 AM during an interview, the DON confirmed the facility did not address safeguards identified in the plan of corrections, which include… 2020-09-01
848 KULANA MALAMA 125057 91-1360 KARAYAN STREET EWA BEACH HI 96706 2019-11-08 657 D 0 1 PEVE11 **NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on observation, interview and record review, the facility failed to update the care plans for two residents (R) 10 & (R) 16 who had falls. The deficient practice placed the residents at an increased risk for accidents. Findings include: 1) During a review of the facility provided matrix noted that Resident (R)10 was coded for a fall. Further record review showed that R10 fell on [DATE]. R10 is an eleven year old male who attends school in the community. He is one of three residents in the facility who are ambulatory. A review of the facility incident/ investigation report dated 09/24/19 stated the following: on 9/24/19 R10 fell on floor in shower room after using the toilet. The certified nurses aide (CNA) reported the incident to the registered nurse (RN). Assessment was done by the RN and R10 was not complaining of pain. No injury or bruising was noted. Skin intact, movement & mobility unaffected and within normal limits (WNL). Factors contributing to event: Impaired balance/ gait. During a review of R10's care plan, it stated Falls problem dated 02/2018, at risk for decreased stress tolerance related to (r/t) decreased balance and resident being tethered to medical equipment. However, since this last fall on 09/24/19, it was noted that the care plan fall problem was not updated. During an interview with the Director of Nursing (DON) on 11/08/19 at 09:50 AM stated that we have care plan meetings every Wednesday. The care plans are updated based on the care conference meetings, family meetings, and physician orders. The plans are resident and family centered. If the resident has a fall, an investigation is done, then we update the care plan and do shift reports. We also do live huddles. We keep all of these activities in our inservice binder. When asked why the care plan for R10 was not updated after the most recent fall on 09/24/19 he responded saying there seems to be a gap in the communication and roles and responsibilities of the n… 2020-09-01
849 KULANA MALAMA 125057 91-1360 KARAYAN STREET EWA BEACH HI 96706 2019-11-08 842 D 0 1 PEVE11 Based on review of medical records and staff interview, the facility failed to maintain accurate documented medical records for two residents (R) 20 and (R) 10 out of eleven residents chosen for review. As a result of this deficient practice, the facility put the resident at risk for miscommunication of the overall care. Findings Include: 1) During a review of two separate worksheets in R20's medical record (dated 09/17/19 and 09/22/19) titled; Respiratory Care Progress Notes, the notes were hand-written, but was written very small and illegible. Even with multiple attempts to determine what was written, it was still illegible. On 11/07/19 at 10:50 AM, Registered Nurse (RN) 2 was asked to determine what was written on the two worksheets (previously mentioned). RN2 acknowledged that the writings were written very small and was illegible. 2) While reviewing the quarterly care conference notes for Resident (R)10 dated: (MONTH) 12, (YEAR); (MONTH) 04, (YEAR); (MONTH) 27, (YEAR); (MONTH) 19. 2019; (MONTH) 21, 2019; (MONTH) 20, 2019; for R10, it was noted that the Date of Birth (DOB) found on the top left corner of each quarterly conference note for R10 read 1008 on each of the care conference notes. The correct DOB for R10 is 2008. During an interview with the Director of Nursing (DON) on 11/08/19 at 09:50 AM discussed the error noted in R10's medical record. DON verified that the DOB should read 2008. 2020-09-01
850 KULANA MALAMA 125057 91-1360 KARAYAN STREET EWA BEACH HI 96706 2018-12-03 578 E 0 1 6J2811 Based on interview and record review, the facility failed to obtain documentation that a resident or a resident's representative was given an opportunity to formulate advanced directives or had a valid advanced directive for five of 12 residents (Resident (R) 11, 12, 20, 25 and 14) selected for review. This deficient practice had the potential to affect residents admitted to the facility. Findings Include: 1) On 11/28/18 11:44 AM, review of R11, R12, R20, and R25's records did not reflect documentation that the resident or resident's representative was given an opportunity to formulate advanced directives or had an advanced directive. On 11/30/18 09:18 AM Social Worker 1 (SW1) was interviewed and asked if she had advanced directive documentation for R11, R12, R20, and R25. SW1 responded those residents had POLST documentation. SW1 was informed that the POLST is not an advanced directive. SW1 validated that if the POLST is not an advanced directive, then R11, R12, R20, and R25 do not have advanced directives. 2) On 11/30/18 at 10:20 AM, during an interview with SW1, she confirmed for R14, per the court order in the clinical record, R14's legal guardians are allowed to formulate an advance directive. SW1 acknowledged that although an advance directive for R14 was talked about during their annual review of the resident's code status, SW1 verified it was only discussed and was not documented. SW1 stated going forward, the information about and a formulation of an advance directive will be reviewed with R14's guardians. 2020-09-01

This deficient practice had the potential to affect all 17 residents in the survey sample. Findings Include: On 11/28/18, R25's record was reviewed, and it reflected R25's weight loss on 11/01/18. The facility's Daily Skilled Nurse's Note, dated 11/01/18 did not reflect that the physician was immediately informed of R25's weight loss. R25's care plan was reviewed and it also did not reflect the weight loss recorded on 11/01/2018 nor that it was reported to her physician. Communication logs to the physician were reviewed and they also did not reflect the weight loss was reported to physician on 11/01/2018, or thereafter. On 11/30/18 at 09:27 AM, the Director of Nursing (DON) was interviewed. He was asked if R25's weight loss was reported to the physician. The DON replied that he didn't know and would have to check documentation. DON was given the opportunity to review R25's documentation. DON validated the physician was not informed immediately of R25's weight loss. 2020-09-01

This deficient practice had the potential to affect all 17 residents in the survey sample for which a care plan may need to be developed. Findings Include: 1) On 11/29/18 at 08:24 AM, during a family interview conducted for R14, the family member stated the bottom part of R14's teeth had a lot of plaque build-up. The family member was not sure when the facility's dental consultant last saw her. Record review revealed a dental consultant's (licensed dentist) note, which stated R14's last dental screening was done on 02/20/17. The dental consultant's comments were: Improve oral hygiene - recommend [MEDICATION NAME]. On 11/30/18 at 10:13 AM, during an interview with registered nurse (RN) 1, she confirmed the resident's dental [MEDICATION NAME] (cleaning) had not been scheduled since the 02/20/17 recommendation by the dental consultant. RN1 said their dental consultant (a licensed dentist), was scheduled to come and see her in (MONTH) (YEAR), but he didn't come in and we haven't heard from him since. Further review found R14 did not have a comprehensive care plan developed for her dental/oral hygiene status. On 12/03/18 at 08:48 AM, a telephone interview with the facility's consultant MDS (Minimum Data Set) coordinator (MDS-C) was done. He acknowledged completing R14's annual MDS dated [DATE], and the 11/09/18 quarterly assessment. Both areas for Section L, oral/dental, showed that nothing had been marked. He was not aware that the last time R14 was examined by the dental consultant was in (MONTH) of (YEAR) with a recommendation for dental cleaning. The MDS-C said he should have reviewed this, but confirmed he failed to do so. Thus, there was no oral/dental… 2020-09-01

Findings include: 1) Observation of Resident #7 (Res #7) revealed staff failed to care for him such as to maintain or enhance his quality of life, as this resident is unable to make his requests for assistance known. On 12/20/17 at 12:29 PM , Res #7 was observed laying in his bed connected to the ventilator. He had a large amount of saliva and drool that was bubbling and coming out of his mouth, down and under his chin and pooling by his [MEDICAL CONDITION] (trach) site. Unable to talk or speak, the resident's left arm was moving up and down. On 12/20/17 at 1:00 PM, Res #7 still had a lot of secretions coming out of his mouth. No staff had gone in to suction him or check on him. Then at 1:02 PM, two staff were seen entering the room to suction and care for the resident. That afternoon at 1:29 PM, the resident was again observed with large saliva bubbles forming at and around his mouth and his chin and neck area were wet again with the secretions. The resident was kept home from school this day due to brace fitting by a local hospital. Review of the (MONTH) (YEAR) physician's orders [REDACTED]. The resident's care plan: At Risk for Ineffective breathing and airway r/t (related to) mucus plug and [MEDICAL CONDITION]/ventilator dependent stated to maintain a patent airway at all times, suction as ordered and as needed via nasal, oral and tracheal routes.

Finding includes: Cross-reference to findings at F686. For Res #8, record review found a 12/22/17 facility wound care skin integrity evaluation report, based on a durable medical equipment (DME) nurse's assessment which documented Res #8 developed a sacral wound, full thickness, unstageable pressure ulcer with an onset date of 12/17/17. The wound measured 2.5 x 3.0 cm (L x W) with a 1.0 cm depth with no tunneling or undermining, was facility acquired, with the wound bed showing brown slough, 70% yellow adherent [MEDICATION NAME] slough, 5% tendon/muscle/ bone and 25% red, pink/red healthy granulation. A second assessment by the same DME nurse, and submitted as the facility's 1/19/18 wound care skin integrity evaluation, showed the wound remained a full thickness, unstageable sacral pressure ulcer with an increase in size to 3.0 x 2.5 x 1.7 cm (L x W x D). The wound bed was noted with 100% yellow adherent [MEDICATION NAME] slough, with no tunneling or undermining and minimum exudate. Review of Res #8's quarterly Minimum Data Set (MDS) with an Assessment Reference Date (ARD) of 1/5/18 under Section M for determination of pressure ulcers at M0210 was coded as 0 = No, this resident does not have one or more unhealed pressure ulcer(s) at Stage 1 or higher. The section for the number of unstageable pressure ulcers due to coverage of the wound bed by slough and/or eschar was not completed; nor was the section at M0610 - Dimensions of Unhealed Stage 3 or 4 Pressure Ulcers or Eschar. On 3/2/18 at 7:35 AM, interview with the contractor RAI Coordinator (RAI-C) for the facility, found he was familiar with Res #8 and came to the facility at least weekly to do his MDS submissions.

Finding includes: During the record reviews for Res #19, #20, #10 and #27, it was found these residents were part of an updated PASARR Level I screening. These were completed by the former medical director on (MONTH) 29, (YEAR) for Res #19, 20 and #10 and on 8/7/17 for Res #27. During an interview with Staff #30 on 12/27/17, she stated the facility could not get someone from the State to evaluate these residents. Staff #30 said their former medical director re-evaluated these residents, but after he left, she had no knowledge of what happened as to why the Level II screens were not done. On 12/28/17, during an interview with Staff #82 at 12:31 PM, she stated the previous PASARRs were completed inaccurately, and although they got to the point where their former medical director understood how to correctly answer the screening questions, they ran into issues trying to find someone to do the Level II screens thereafter. Staff #82 said although they contracted a certain individual to do the Level II screens, she verified that to date, this individual has not done them and confirmed these residents did not receive their Level II screens. 2020-09-01

Findings include: 1) On 12/27/17 at 03:14 PM, the MRR on R#25 noted on a speech language pathologist (SLP) evaluation report dated 11/19/17, the resident was assessed with [REDACTED]. The dysphagia note addendum documented that R#25 was seen for communication and dysphagia treatment. It was also reported that the family was found feeding yogurt to R#25, despite repeated warnings not to engage in oral trials without presence of Rehab. Issues and concerns were discussed with the nurse practitioner (NP) and nursing staff. The importance of balancing safe feeding trials with decreasing oral aversion was discussed at length with the family and they provided return demonstration techniques. The plan was for the family to demonstrate positive eating models in front of R#25 and have the resident feed them too, in order to encourage positive feeding experiences. The family agreed to the plan and nursing was informed. On the SLP evaluation dated 11/28/17, the resident was assessed to have oral dysphagia and suspected/possible pharyngeal dysphagia; characterized by significant oral aversion, minimal oral intake, poor lip seal, poor bolus manipulation, and oral motor coordination deficits for feeding. The functional summary documented that R#25 was still demonstrating oral aversion by turning away from food presentations. The resident's oral intake was minimal and they were working towards increasing intake so a modified [MEDICATION NAME] swallow study (MBSS) could be done. On 12/05/17 the SLP documented in a SOAP note, .A: R#25 continues to present with delays in communication & feeding .Feeding - continues oral aversion. Took… 2020-09-01

Findings include: 1) R#14 is a [AGE] year old quadriplegic resident with encephalitis who is dependent on the nursing staff for all activities and care. R#14's history found frequent urinary tract infections (UTIs). Record review (RR) on 12/21/17 at 09:31 AM revealed that R#14 was admitted with an indwelling catheter because of a [MEDICAL CONDITION] bladder. R#14 has had frequent UTIs. Lab tests were done for [DIAGNOSES REDACTED]. On 9/7/17, R#14 had an episode of hematuria during the night and her physician was aware. On 10/02/17 a urine sample with reflex to culture and sensitivity (C&S) was done and a [DIAGNOSES REDACTED]. Per the progress notes, R#14 had a temp of 39 degrees centigrade and continues with foul odor urine. Urine draining concentrated dark yellow urine with large amount of sediments and foul odor. On 11/8/17 another urine sample with reflex to C&S was done. Her urine sample again revealed a UTI. Then on 12/18/17 another urine sample with reflex to C&S revealed another [DIAGNOSES REDACTED]. RR dated 12/12/17 at 11:00 [NAME]M. showed a physician's orders [REDACTED]. However, the medication administration review (MAR) found the resident did not receive this order 18 times over an 18 day span because it was not available. On 12/21/17 at 9:55 AM, Staff#72 stated, I don't know about the care plans but they do interdisciplinary plan of corrections. She does have sediments in her urine. RR on 12/21/17 of the interdisciplinary care team meeting notes on 11/14/17 did not document R#14's treatment or care for her repeated UTIs.

Finding includes: On 2/28/18 at 12:25 PM, the SA observed Res #8's coccyx wound with Staff #55 during wound care. Staff #55's knowledge was the resident's wound developed in the facility and it was determined to be an unstageable wound. Staff #55 measured the wound to be 3.0 cm (length) x 2.0 cm (width) x 1.8 cm (depth). She said, he does have undermining and measured it to be 4 cm at 12 o'clock spot. She also measured the wound at the 1:00 o'clock to 3 o'clock areas with a swab and noted 2 cm of undermining there, and 2 cm at the 7 o'clock to 12 o'clock areas. She said at the 6 o'clock spot, there was no undermining, some serosanguinous drainage, but no odor. Staff #55 said although the wound had been improving with less slough, the measurements were smaller prior to the dressing change, and surprised there was 4 cm of undermining found. The resident's right and left buttocks showed intact, pinkish white scar tissue, but the coccyx wound itself presented as a deep, circular coccyx wound with minimal slough. She stated there was no bone, but just tissue. She packed it with several dry woven gauze and applied absorptive dressing over it per the physician's orders [REDACTED]. Record review found this resident had a history of [REDACTED]. However, the first entry for the observed sacral/coccyx wound was found on a weekly skin assessment diagram of 12/11/17 which noted a general 3 x 2.5 cm open area. Then there were additional entries which noted the following: 12/18/17 - coccyx open wound measured 2.8 x 3 cm; 12/25/17 - Buttock with pink moist wound inferior to coccyx approx. 2.5 x 3.0 x 1.1 cm; 1/2… 2020-09-01

As a result, there was a failure to protect these residents from respiratory trauma/complications due to the number of unplanned decannulations. Residents who experience these unplanned decannulations suffer from oxygen desaturation, trauma and even the likelihood of death. An immediate jeopardy (IJ) was identified as the facility failed to recognize the serious nature of the decannulations, failed to track the incidence and rate of decannulations occurring in the facility, failed to identify the root cause(s) of the decannulations, failed to develop and implement care plan interventions to prevent the recurrence of decannulations, and failed to train or in-service staff about the decannulation risk for all residents in the facility. Finding includes: During the revisit survey, the SA observed an unplanned decannulation (removal of the [MEDICAL CONDITION]) on 2/28/18 at 11:10 AM for Res #20. This happened while she was attending her in-facility school program. Three respiratory therapists responded to a call for help and worked on the resident to re-insert the tube and re-establish her airway. The pediatric resident, was observed gasping with tears as her oxygen saturation level dropped to 69%, with a pulse of 164. Review of the facility's incident report found the cause of decannulation was due to the resident's [MEDICAL CONDITION] ties being extremely loose. Then the next day on 3/1/18 at 8:15 PM, another pediatric resident, Res #7, experienced a decannulation during his bed bath. Separate interviews of Staff #25, Staff #124, and Staff #98 were done, and it was found that Res #20 and Res #7 were known to decannulate frequently, but that it was not being addressed.

Finding includes: Cross-reference to findings at F686. It was found the attending physician for Res #8 was aware as of 12/21/17, that Res #8 had a sacral wound and had a treatment order for it on 12/22/18. However, he also combined his wound documentation with entries of buttock [MEDICAL CONDITION] or excoriations, which made it confusing as to whether he was treating one wound versus a new, different buttock wound. The physician's clinical documentation was noted as follows: - 12/21/17 documentation: New eschar at sacral wound .Scant eschar sacral wound. Assessment and plan: wound care.

It was found there was an insufficient number of licensed staff with a lack of competency training required to provide quality care for their residents who were all ventilatory dependent and required total care by staff. As a result, an immediate jeopardy (IJ) was identified for the systemic problems and potential for serious harm to occur to all their residents. Findings include: Cross-reference to findings from F550, F645, F656, F657, F726, F759, F760, F835, F837, F841, F851. 1) On 12/19/17 at 08:25 AM, during the initial tour of the facility, surveyor observed Staff#42 and Staff#8 flushing R#24's peripherally inserted central catheter (PICC) line. Staff#42 was assisting Staff#8 who held 2 syringes filled with liquid, and asked, Which syringe do I use first? Do I flush it with all (syringes)? After the nurses completed the task, they were queried whether it took 2 nurses to flush R#24's PICC line. Staff#42 stated that she worked the night shift (N[NAME]) and was supposed to have flushed R#24's PICC line but was too busy, so assisted the day shift nurse with the PICC line flush before going home because this resident was more complicated. Staff#42 further stated there were only 2 nurses working the night shift (N[NAME]) and the day shift nurse had to work until 2300 to provide residents [MEDICAL CONDITION]. The nurses reported that on 12/18/17 from 2300-0400 there were only 2 nurses on duty and a respiratory therapist on duty from 2100-0700.

It was found there was an insufficient number of licensed staff with a lack of competency training required to provide adequate and safe nursing care for the capacity of residents who were all ventilatory dependent and required total care by staff. As a result, an immediate jeopardy (IJ) was identified as the potential for serious harm to occur for all their residents existed. Findings include: Cross reference to findings at F550, F645, F656, F657, F725, F759, F760, F835, F837, F841. 1) On 12/22/17 at 10:10 AM, Staff #65 stated for the ventilator competency training, it has been difficult to track which staff completed their training due to the rapid turnover of staff. Staff #65 stated he did not think the all of the current nursing staff had completed the ventilator competency training. He was uncertain if Staff #66 had initiated any of the same training but if so, he was unaware of it. 2) During an interview with Staff #119 on 12/22/17, she verified the nursing staff was not being competently trained. The SA found evidence of this by a) a 92% medication error rate found during their medication review task, b) incomplete documentation and monitoring without corrective measures of the facility's high rate of medication errors/omissions, c) missing documentation of ventilator competencies of 8 regular licensed staff and an unknown number of the agency staff without ventilatory competencies and d) missing documentation of the staff's annual [MEDICAL CONDITION] suctioning competencies.

In addition, the facility's practice of medication administration was not based on current standards of practice as evidenced by the actions observed of the licensed staff and others who were interviewed. As a result, there existed a high potential for harm to the health and safety of all their residents and an immediate jeopardy (IJ) was identified on 12/22/17. Findings includes: Cross-reference to findings at F725, F726, F760, F835, F837, F841. 1) On 12/21/17 at 09:28 AM, surveyor observed Staff#109 administering medications (meds) via R#25's gastrostomy tube (GT). Staff#109 opened the [MEDICATION NAME] capsule and mixed it with distilled water, used a 1 ml (milliliter) syringe for the multi-vitamins, a syringe of 0.3 ml [MEDICATION NAME], and syringe of 2.5 ml [MEDICATION NAME]. Staff #109 stated that for R#25, she used 5 ml of distilled water before and after her med administration. After administering each syringe of med one after the other via the GT, Staff#109 flushed the resident's GT with 5 ml distilled water at the end. Staff#109 stated that she had her nursing education and training in California and was taught to flush between meds when administering via the GT. When Staff #109 was hired at this facility however, she was told the facility protocol was to just flush before and after med administration. On 12/21/17 at 09:02 AM, the MRR for R# 25 noted on the (MONTH) (YEAR) physician order [REDACTED]. 2) A medication pass observation of Staff #20 on 12/20/17 at 9:28 [NAME]M. for R#14 revealed the following meds administered via the [DEVICE]: 1) Multi-vitamin tab, 1 tab. 2) Potassium 15 ml (20 MEQ) poured. 3) Senna 8.6 mg tab, 2 tabs. 4) [MEDICATION NAME] Immuni… 2020-09-01

As a result, there was a failure to protect from potential adverse medication consequences, a failure to have concise physician's orders [REDACTED]. In addition, it was found there were insufficient numbers of licensed staff who lacked the training for medication administration to adequately provide safe, competent nursing care for these residents who were all ventilatory dependent and required total care by staff. Further, the facility's practice of medication administration was not based on current standards of practice as evidenced by the actions observed of the licensed staff and others who were interviewed. As a result, there existed a high potential for harm to the health and safety of all their residents and an immediate jeopardy (IJ) was identified on [DATE]. Findings includes: Cross-reference to findings at F725, F726, F759, F835, F837, F841. 1) On [DATE] at 12:39 PM, the SA met with Staff #82, #66, #65 and #119. The facility staff was informed of the IJ based on the SA's medication error rate at 92%. Staff #119 stated she recognized the flushing of the medications was an issue, and it was not being done when the nurses were passing their medications to the residents. Staff #119 said this is the standard protocol to follow but that their previous medical director did not think it was necessary. She stated the administrative staff were all aware of this practice of not flushing between medications and it has been taught this way. Staff #119 concurred the standard of practice was to also ensure crushed medications administered via the [DEVICE] were not to be given all mixed together.

Finding includes: The cumulative findings of this survey, including the IJ and other cited deficiencies revealed that Staff #82 was aware of and ackowledged the systemic problems found during the survey. For one, the facility assessment was incomplete and Staff #82 stated on 12/22/17, it was going to their QA (quality assurance and performance improvement committee). However, she verified their QA committee has not met since (MONTH) (YEAR). Yet, there were no emergency QA meetings noted, despite the fact their staffing patterns had changed, they lost their medical director, and that Staff #82 had to recruit a large number of agency nurses, most without deemed competency skills training revealed in this survey, in order for the facility to operate/care for all of its [MEDICAL CONDITION]/ventilatory dependent residents. During the interview with Staff #119 on 12/22/17, she stated that Staff #82 and Staff #66 were aware of these problems but nothing was being done about it. Staff #119 stated she was asked to help Staff #66 learn the role of being the director of nursing (DON), although she has been a DON now for two years. Staff #119 also stated due to a lot of internal dissension with the former medical director and administrative staff, the outcome has been this procrastination and a loss of approximately 10-14 nurses leaving the facility in the past four to six weeks. On 12/28/17 at 3:56 PM, Staff #66 brought in a revised medication event report summary and said she was told by Staff 82 to put the tracking log together for (MONTH) to (MONTH) (YEAR).

Finding includes: The cumulative findings of this survey, including the IJ are cross-referenced to this citation. The facility wide assessment which Staff #82 produced was incomplete. The facility assessment she produced failed to outline how the facility assessed their resident population, including an evaluation of the diseases, conditions, acuity of the resident population, etc., and how it affected the planning for services the facility must provide in order to care for its residents. The disease type, number of residents, special equipment if needed, environmental modifications, actions and additional or competency needed, special clinical needs and appliances form was blank with only a handwritten notation, Breakdown and further analysis occurring written on it. For the workplace profile section for both administrative staffing and direct care staffing the information was incomplete, without an evaluation of the overall number of qualified staff included. The section for competencies related to resident care and training needs was also blank. During an interview with Staff #121 on 12/29/17, he stated he turned in a portion for the environment; however, he was still waiting to hear from Staff #82 as to what more he had to do. A note attached to the facility assessment for Building and Physical Environment stated, to meet on this on 12/4. discussed and he will work on basic info and we will meet again.

Findings include: The cumulative findings of this survey, including the IJ are cross-referenced to this citation. It was revealed during the survey from interviews with the various administrative staff that their former medical director left the facility sometime in (MONTH) (YEAR). In the interim, their temporary medical director, who primarily oversees the adult residents in the facility, was also overseeing the care for the pediatric population. However, it was found the facility's quality assessment and assurance committee had not met for half a year, the facility's policies and procedures were dated and not reviewed since 2012, and, along with the staffing issues, problems with medication errors, this inherent lack of the medical director's on-going participation in policy development with strategies for improvement, was found to be a failure in the medical director's role in the overall coordination of care and services in this facility. 2020-09-01

Findings includes: 1. On 12/27/17 at 12:19 PM, Staff #98 verified she made a recordation error by omitting the 12/21/17 vital signs she took on the CNA log sheet for Res #1. She said it is the aide's responsibility to log the vitals. Staff #15 said they put the Bair Hugger on the resident if his temperature went below 96 degrees F, and, If his heart rate is low, that means he is cold. Or I'll try and keep his head warm. Interview with Staff #66 found she concurred that the current vital signs log was inconsistent with missing information. This was information that should be included as interventions to implement into Res #1's care plan. Staff #66 said she was responsible for this as well as the licensed staff. 2. Resident #3 was observed on 12/19/17 at 11:25 AM to have a small quarter sized bruise like spot in the inner aspect of his right forearm during his range of motion exercise while in the 60 degree standing position. Staff #103 was there assisting the resident with his activities. On 12/21/17 at 11:12 AM, Staff #88 showed Res #3's right forearm and said it looks like a small rash. but Staff #103, said she saw it on 12/19/17 and it looked like a bruise. Staff #103 said it looks like rash and then Staff #12 came over to do an assessment of it. Record review on 12/22/17 found Staff #12's progress note (shift report) date was incorrect. Staff #110 confirmed this. Staff #12 wrote 12/20/17 but it should have been 12/21/17. There also was no documentation of Res #3's skin condition although Staff #103 was observed looking at it and saying it looked like a rash. There were no new orders as well. On the 24 hour charge nurse report, there also was no documentation of it by Staff #12, although Staff #110 said it should be there. 2020-09-01

Finding includes: During the extended survey, the SA found the PBJ was incomplete. On 12/28/17, Staff #82 gave the SA the facility's staffing summary reports from (MONTH) through (MONTH) (YEAR), and (MONTH) through 12/27/17. There was a notable difference of 3,575.75 staffing hours shown between the last quarter of the year, compared to the July-September period. Another tracking sheet for (MONTH) (YEAR) was also provided; however, the information for it and the two summary reports did not include information to differentiate between the direct care staff, agency staff, contract staff, resident census data nor information on direct care staff turnover and tenure and hours paid for all required staff each day. Staff #82 was asked to review and resubmit it. On 12/29/17 at 1:03 PM, Staff #82 stated the facility's financial officer was working on it but the reports would be run for each individual and would be a lot of paper. At this time, the SA informed Staff #82 the requirements for the PBJ were noted in the State Operations Manual and she said, I know.

Finding includes: The cumulative findings of this survey, including the IJ are cross-referenced to this citation. During a meeting with Staff #82 on 12/28/17 at 12:31 PM, she stated there were two performance improvement areas which the facility identified. These had to do with bathing of residents and dignity issues and staff's use of personal protective equipment related to splashbacks. However, when Staff #82 was queried whether the rate of medication errors, lack of policy review/revision to current standards of practice, staffing concerns and lack of an active infection control committee were documented and identified with a study and/or documented improvement processes to better resident care, services and outcomes, Staff #82 could not elaborate further as to how they identified and/or were improving these areas within their facility. Record review on 12/29/17 at 12:22 PM found the facility's quarterly meeting was last held on 7/28/17. The next scheduled QA meeting on 10/18/17 showed it was canceled but included the consultant pharmacist's third quarter report. On 12/29/17 at 1:03 PM, Staff #82 verified the last time their QA committee met was in (MONTH) (YEAR). Staff #82 stated she will be requesting one in (MONTH) (YEAR). 2020-09-01

Finding includes: The cumulative findings of this survey, including the IJ are cross-referenced to this citation. On 12/29/17 at 1:03 PM, Staff #82 verified the last time their QA committee met was in (MONTH) (YEAR). Staff #82 stated she will be requesting one in (MONTH) (YEAR). Although queried whether given the potential findings with the IJ and other concerns found during this survey, if the QA committee considered meeting sooner since so many of their staff (and family members) verbalized systemic quality of care issues. Staff #82 replied they did not. 2020-09-01

Finding includes: On 12/27/17 at 1:55 PM, interview with Staff #66 was done. She stated she is the assigned infection preventionist (IP) for the facility. She stated the criteria she has includes new forms (McGeer criteria) which their consultant IP provided to her, but the new forms has to pass through Q[NAME] Staff #66 confirmed she was not using the McGeer criteria forms and it's a work in progress. She stated she does random observation surveillance of the facility to identify any breaches in infection control. When Staff #66 was queried if she documented the any misses related to such, she stated, I usually do a verbal and then if it happens again, will do a note to file. She also stated she sends her surveillance to the consultant who reviews and numbers and the report. She the past leadership preferred not to work with her and the former medical director was to have guided her, but it didn't happen so starting Jan (YEAR), I had to make the call to switch gears and I started to work with (consultant IC) more. Staff #66 also said there were no cultures being done because the former medical director didn't really do cultures, but the nurse practitioner is of the mindset to do them. Staff #66 was queried about the facility's (MONTH) (YEAR) respiratory tract infection (RTI) rate of 11, compared to 6 RTIs in May, 2 RTIs in (MONTH) and and 1 in (MONTH) (YEAR).
