The facility also failed to provide Resident #92 care and services in the care areas concerning baths and shaving. This was true for one (1) of six (6) sample residents dependent for care. This practice had the potential to affect more than a limited number of residents. Resident identifier: #92. Facility census: 107. Findings include: a) Scheduled appointments outside of the facility Resident #92 is a paraplegic (paralysis of legs and lower body) with [MEDICAL CONDITION] bladder. He is totally dependent for all care, is legally blind, and newly diagnosed with [REDACTED]. C1 indicates the first cervical vertebrae. Cervical vertebrae are bones that are a part of the neck. C1 is located at the base of the head. Compression or a pinching of the C5 nerve can produce numbness, paresthesia (pins and needles), and paralysis of the arms. Records show Resident #92's forearms, wrists, and hands were affected and symptomatic from the C5 compression. Review of medical records from VAMC physician progress notes [REDACTED]. C5 shows chronic cord compression possibly from an old trauma. Review of records on 02/05/18 at 2:55 PM revealed a significant change minimum data set (MDS) with an assessment reference date (ARD) 01/04/18. The resident had impaired vision (legally blind); had clear speech, was able to understand and make himself understood. The MDS revealed a Brief Interview for Mental Status (BIMS) with a score of fifteen (15) indicating the resident was cognitively intact. Resident #92 needed extensive assistance with eating and was dependent for all other activities of daily living (ADL) including bed mobility, transfer, dressing, toileting, and hygiene. The resident was on scheduled and as needed pain medication and had not had a fall during the seven day look back period. Resident received speech therapy, occupational therapy, and physical therapy. Observations, on 02/05/18 at 11:55 AM., revealed Resident#92 appeared clean, without any body odors, hair stubble noted on chin, and Foley catheter was draining to drainage bag on bedside. The bed rails properly fit the bed. The resident had a special needs call light (Blow call light) to accommodate resident due to paralysis and inability to use hands. Blow call light was within reach of the resident and he was observed using it with staff responding timely. Resident#92 did not want to be interviewed at the time the surveyor attempted an interview, and this surveyor told the resident the surveyor would come back the next day to talk to him. The next day when this surveyor went to interview Resident #92, the resident was no longer a resident at the facility, Resident #92 was transferred to live at another facility and was unavailable for interview On 02/06/18 at 11:25 AM, review of reportable events revealed a report concerning Resident #92, dated 12/26/17, where the Veterans Administration Medical Center (VAMC) notified the facility of an incident occurring that morning that was reported to all appropriate agencies. The incident reported to the facility, alleged upon EMS (emergency management service) ambulance arriving to take the resident to scheduled appointments, the resident was not cleaned up, had no breakfast, catheter needed emptied, and call light was not in reach. The report revealed, Per VA the resident stated his head hitting side rail on bed and he was yelling. Someone came and shut the door but did not provide care. The results of the facility's reportable investigation revealed the allegations were unsubstantiated due to lack of information provided by EMS. The facility requested an extension for five day follow up from 12/31/17 to 01/05/18, due to awaiting statements from EMS. Review of the facility's five day follow up report findings, revealed EMS arrived at approximately 7:00 AM on 12/26/17, and the NA (Nurse Aid) had not cleaned the resident up yet. The NA did clean the resident and emptied his catheter, after being told by a nurse to clean him up for his appointment after the EMS ambulance crew arrived to pick up the resident. Breakfast had not been served yet. The social worker (SW#68) noted that EMS had been contacted multiple times, requesting statements concerning the description of the incidence (the facility reported they did not receive EMS statements). Social worker SW#68's written investigation statement in response to these allegations, dated 12/27/17, stated the ambulance arrived closed to 7:00 AM for a 9:00 AM appointment, breakfast was not ready at the time, puffer call light attached to bed by maintenance and cannot come off the bed. EMS must have seen roommates call light. SW #68 did not substantiate these allegations. On 02/06/18 at 1:15 PM, an interview with Staff#5, responsible for logging resident's appointments, revealed the Veterans Administration Medical Center (VAMC) has a contract with an ambulance service (name of local ambulance service) to transport all residents that are veterans, to any of their appointments. The VAMC is responsible for setting up and paying transport for any appointment no matter where it is. When asked what the process was to assure residents get to their appointments, Staff#5 explained the contact person at the VAMC calls at least once a month, and goes over all appointments residents who are veterans have, where the appointments are, and tells me what time the ambulance is to pick up the resident. Staff#5 said she writes the resident's name, date and time of the appointment, and the time the ambulance is to pick up the resident on the appointment calendar book. Staff#5 said, then the charge nurse has the appointment calendar book and lets the nurse aides know when they need to have the residents cleaned up and ready to go. Review of the appointment calendar book for the month of (MONTH) (YEAR), with Staff#5, revealed Resident #92 had appointments four (4) different days in December. The appointments noted on 12/26/17, revealed Resident #92 had labs at 7:30 AM and an appointment at 9:00 AM at the VAMC Spinal Injury Clinic. Also, noted on the calendar was the time the ambulance was to pick up Resident #92, which was 7:00 AM on 12/26/17. Staff#5 said the VAMC always uses the same ambulance service for transports. When asked if the ambulance service ever is late or comes early, the receptionist replied, The ambulance service (the name of) is real good about being right on time. Staff#5 confirmed EMS ambulance was scheduled to arrive to pick Resident#92 up at 7:00 AM on 12/26/17. The facility investigation resulted in the allegations being unsubstantiated, however the investigation did not appear to be thorough. The facility's appointment calendar, clearly documented the ambulance was to pick the resident up at 7:00 AM to transport the resident for 7:30 AM labs, and that there was a second appointment at 9:00 AM. The facility's investigation Witness statements verified the ambulance arrived as scheduled and the resident was not cleaned up and ready to be transported. Resident #92 was cleaned and his catheter emptied, only after the NA was told by the nurse to clean him up for his appointment, after the ambulance crew arrived and waited. There was no evidence the resident needed to be fasting for his lab tests, nor any evidence that any breakfast had been offered to the resident, or any arrangements made to provide him a breakfast or snack. The resident did not get On 02/06/18 at 10:15 AM, after multiple failed attempts for observations and interview with Resident #92 due to not finding him in his room or elsewhere in the facility, an interview with the Administrator revealed Resident #92 was transferred to Veterans Administration Medical Center (VAMC) yesterday, 02/05/18. Administrator said this was a plan discharge that the resident had been on a waiting list to become a resident at the VAMC's facility, and an opening came available yesterday evening. Interview with the Coordinator of Health Information Management (HIMC Staff#73), on 02/07/16 at 10:00 AM, revealed Resident #92 had said he wanted to transfer to a facility closer to his ex-girlfriend so she could visit him. HIMC Staff#73 said the girlfriend told him there was one close to her that the Veterans Administration (VA) would pay for. HIMC Staff#73 said, the facility told him multiple times there was not one in that area the girlfriend was referring to, but he did not believe them, and would get upset about it each time. On 02/08/18 at 11:03 AM, an interview with VAMC Social Worker, VAMC SW#302 revealed she reported the situation because she is a mandatory reporter. VAMC SW#302 said, I was concerned for the resident because of his recent [DIAGNOSES REDACTED]. VAMC SW#302 said she reported to all the appropriate agencies, and spoke by phone to the facility's Director of Nursing (Nurse Executive Director) and SW #68 concerning these allegations on 12/26/17. VAMC SW#302 said she first saw the resident, on 12/26/17, after first being asked to see him, by the VAMC Nurse Practitioner (Family Nurse Practitioner Certification - FNPC), VAMC FNPC#304. VAMC SW#302 said, When I saw him (Resident #92) he was laying on a stretcher, unshaven, with a neck brace on. The resident was alert and oriented and was asking to go to another nursing home closer to his family. The resident said the nursing home he lived at did not beat him, but they don't take care of him. The ambulance crew reported the facility knew he was being picked up for a doctor's appointment, but he was not cleaned up. The ambulance crew said his call bell was across the room where he could not reach it. They had to ask someone to empty his catheter bag, and when it was emptied no one looked to see if anything else needed cleaned. He had not been given breakfast. The ambulance crew said he was upset because he wanted to be shaven and cleaned up before leaving for his appointment. Review of VAMC SW#302 Notes dated 12/26/17, revealed the ambulance crew reported, (Name of facility) knew we were picking him up for a doctor appointment today. When we arrived he was not cleaned up. His call bell was across the room where he could not reach it. He had no breakfast. We had to ask someone to empty his catheter bag. When staff emptied the bag they did not look under the covers to check to see if anything else needed taken care of. Further review of records (facility and VAMC records) revealed alternate placement was discussed with the resident several times. The resident had discussed moving to a nursing home closer to his family and girlfriend. When the resident discovered there was not another nursing home the Veterans Administration was contracted to pay for in the area close to his family and girlfriend, Resident #92 did not want to personally pay and choose to return to the facility. The Ombudsman was interviewed via phone, on 02/08/18 at 2:30 PM, for concerns regarding these allegations. Interview with Ombudsman revealed during her interview at the facility with Resident #92 and facility staff, on 01/03/18, the resident said he lied about his head being stuck in the bed rails, that he lied just because he was mad. The Ombudsman said Resident #92 bragged on the care he receives at the facility, appeared [MEDICATION NAME] pleased, and had no complaints against the facility. After record review, abuse and neglect policy review, staff interview, VAMC staff interview, and review of the facility's investigation record, the evidence revealed some of the allegations were substantiated. There is not enough evidence to substantiate the allegation the resident's special blow call light was not in reach of the resident. The resident denied, in front of multiple witnesses, his head was hitting the side rail on his bed, and someone shut the door without providing any care. The resident said he falsely made these accusations because he was mad. The facility did neglect to ensure Resident #92 was; cleaned up and shaven; catheter drainage bag was emptied; and resident was ready to be transported for medical appointments via ambulance, as was scheduled on the facility's appointment calendar book for 12/26/17 at 7:00 AM. The resident did not have breakfast, and the facility did not provide or make any arrangements for the resident to have breakfast or a snack on a day the resident was scheduled to be out of the facility for medical appointments. The catheter drainage bag was emptied by a nurse aid (NA) after the ambulance crew arrived and only after a nurse had to instruct the NA to clean up the resident. b) Baths and shaving On 02/06/18 at 9:05 AM, review of grievance and concerns revealed a grievance dated 09/12/17 revealing one of the issues was not being shaven adequately to allow for the use of the diathermy machine to be placed on his face. Resolution to the concerns were completed by 09/ 27/17 with staff being educated, Kardex being updated with the resident's preferences. The KARDEX provides specific instructions for the nursing assistants concerning individualized care to be provided for a resident. Review of Resident #92's Kardex showed it was important for resident to choose between a tub bath, shower, bed bath, or sponge bath, and under skin care it was noted as written ****Shave Resident daily****. Review of care plan, on 02/08/18 at 4:40 PM, revealed under the care area of self-care deficit an intervention to ****Shave Resident daily**** initiated 10/26/17. Resident #92 a legally blind paraplegic, totally dependent for all care, was to receive a shave and bed bath daily. The resident was incontinent of bowel and had a Foley catheter.

On 02/08/18 at 4:47 PM, an interview with two (2) Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) LPN#44 and LPN#70 revealed the following information. When asked, as nurses, what their expectations of how often a totally dependent resident, incontinent of bowel should receive bed baths from nurse aides, both LPNs said at least daily, if not more depending on the resident's incontinence episodes.

Their goal was for her to work up to tolerate a right hand orthotic for four (4) hours per day. The final long term goal was to discharge her to the restorative program with 100% staff training for contracture management program. She said the director of nursing (DON) was the head of the restorative nursing department. In an interview on 05/22/17 at 4:22 p.m., the director of nursing (DON) said this resident used to have a Posey roll, and she used to have restorative nursing services for range of motion with restorative aides; however, she no longer received restorative services. She said she felt the regular nursing assistants on the units did enough range of motion during activities of daily living to make it count for range of motion. She said that the resident had a Posey roll for her right hand prior to a week-long hospital stay the first week in (MONTH) (YEAR), but it had not been re-ordered since the (MONTH) hospitalization .

Her Brief Interview for Mental Status (BIMS) score was eleven (11), indicating moderately impaired cognitive functioning. On [DATE] at 4:45 p.m., the administrator provided a copy of the resident's current care plan. Review of the care plan found a focus statement related to the right side extremities being weaker than the left, and contractures of the right shoulder, elbow, wrist, and hand. However, there was no goal related to what the facility hoped to achieve related to contracture maintenance, and no interventions on how the facility planned to ensure no worsening of the contractures, or no negative outcomes related to the contractures. During an interview on [DATE] at 4:01 p.m., Director of Rehabilitation Services #52 said this resident first began therapy services [DATE] through [DATE]. Their old record keeping was done on paper and they had transferred to electronic documentation sometime in (YEAR). She reviewed the numerous times this resident had physical therapy (PT) and/or occupational therapy (OT) services in (YEAR) and found the following: - She was on PT and OT caseload [DATE] through [DATE]. - She received PT and OT services [DATE] through [DATE]. - She again received PT and OT services [DATE] through [DATE]. - She was on PT caseload [DATE] through [DATE].

Director of Rehabilitation Services #52 said they screened every patient in the facility at least every three (3) months at the time their quarterly assessments were due, and on patients after they sustained a fall. She said they also have a HEY program whereby they keep referral sheets at every nursing station. She said if any employee within the facility had a concern about a resident's functioning, they could communicate their concerns to therapy by utilizing the referral sheets. Director of Rehabilitation Services #52 said they screened this resident on [DATE] after she was readmitted to the facility following a psychiatric inpatient admission. They found that she was able to propel in a wheelchair around the facility and there was no change in functional transfers. Upon inquiry, she said the last time OT had her on case load was (MONTH) (YEAR). At that time, OT had goals for passive and active range of motion (ROM) to the right upper extremities, ten (10) repetitions for three (3) sets daily to establish a contracture management program. OT also had goals for her to tolerate a right hand orthotic for two (2) hours initially, with the goal to tolerate it long-term for four (4) hours. The final long-term OT goals were to discharge the resident to the restorative program with 100% staff training for the contracture management program.

She said the functionality of the resident's hand was the same as it was during the time she had most recently received therapy services. When asked what would happen if the resident did not wear the Posey hand splint, she said the palm of the resident's hand would become macerated, and her contracted fingertips could intrude into the palm. When asked if she would always need to wear a device of that type, she replied in the affirmative. She said the contracture would not correct itself at any time in the future, so it would be a lifetime need for the device. When asked whether the restorative service aides or the regular aides on the floor would apply the Posey when she was discharged from OT, she said only the restorative aides would apply it. She said the regular aides on the floor did not apply orthotics, and would not do so unless the policy changed sometime in the future to allow the aides to do so. She agreed that upon her return from the hospital in March, that she should have been picked up again for restorative and for the orthotic, and she was not.",2020-09-01

The NA removed her gloves and without performing hand hygiene exited the room. Upon return, the NA went to the bathroom and donned gloves. Upon completion of care, the NA removed her gloves and exited the room without utilizing hand hygiene. During care, Resident #163 pulled the barrier on the nightstand and a plastic bag with wound care supplies fell to the floor. Upon completion of wound care, LPN #72 removed her gloves and used hand sanitizer. The LPN picked up the plastic bag from the floor which contained gloves and four by four gauze pads. She placed the tube of cream utilized for wound care and the wound care cleanser in the bag. LPN #72 picked up the bag in her right hand and the garbage bag with her left hand and exited the room.

The nurse said the washcloths utilized for peri care should not have been placed in the sink basin, and PPE was required prior to entering the room of the resident in isolation. The RN identified Resident #189's infection as clostridium difficile, which required stringent hand hygiene. The nurse verbalized LPN #72 should have sanitized the bag she picked up from Resident #163's floor, prior to placing it back in the cart, but would have obtained a new bag herself. g) The hand hygiene policy with a revision date of 11/28/16, required staff perform hand hygiene before patient care, before an aseptic (clean) procedure, after any contact with blood or other body fluids even if gloves were worn, after patient care, and after contact with the patient's environment.

This was true of one (1) of one (1) sample residents reviewed for infections (not UTI or Respiratory). Resident (R#33) refused physician ordered wound dressing for multiple days without the physician being notified. This practice had the potential to effeect a limited number of residents. Resident identifier: R#33. Facility census: 111. Findings included: During the initial tour of the annual Long-Term Care Survey Process, on 06/03/19 at 11:15 AM, Surveyor# observed Resident (R#33) with dried crusted drainage around a small open circular wound site located on the resident's upper abdominal right side. This was identified as a concern for further investigation by Surveyor# due to the open wound drainage and not being covered with a dressing. Review of records, on 06/10/19 at 11:01 AM, revealed R#33's brief interview for mental status (BIMs) score is fourteen (14) indicating the resident is cognitively intact. Pertinent [DIAGNOSES REDACTED]. The resident was admitted to the facility after having incision and drainage (I&D) of abscesses, which developed after having lower-back spinal surgery and after having a cholecystectomy. A cholecystectomy is the surgical procedure to remove a gallbladder. After gallbladder surgery the resident had a drainage tube at the surgical site, on his right upper abdomen, to prevent the build-up of bile, blood, and/or infection. The resident developed an abscess on his right side and another incision and drainage procedure was performed and a drainage tube was again placed to facilitate healing. On 04/04/19, after the drainage tube was removed a new order was given to clean surgical incision to right side with wound cleanser, pat dry, and apply dry dressing every day. Review of the treatment administration record (TAR) revealed daily wound care treatment including a dry dressing was ordered and started on 04/04/19. The wound care and dry dressing was applied daily from 04/04/19 until 04/10/19 when it was documented refused and applied again daily on 04/11/19 until 04/14/19 when it was documented as refused. The wound care treatment and dry dressing was applied daily again on 04/15/19 until 04/18/19 when it was documented refused. The wound care treatment and dry dressing was applied on 04/19/19, 04/20/19, 04/21/19, 04/24/19, 04/27/19, and 04/28/19. On 04/22/19, 04/23/19, 04/25/19, 04/29/19, and 04/30/19 it was documented refused, and on 04/26/19 there was no documentation either way as to refusal or provision of wound care treatment and the dry dressing, the TAR entry was blank. In the month of (MONTH) 2019 the resident had twenty seven (27) opportunities to have wound care treatment and a dressing applied daily and had the ordered treatment randomly eighteen (18) times. There was no wound care treatment provided at all during the month of May. According to the TAR, R#33 refused wound care treatment and daily dressings twenty-nine (29) days in the month of May, and two (2) days there was no documentation either way as to refusal or application of wound care or the dry dressing, the TAR was blank on those two days. According to the TAR, R#33 refused treatment on (MONTH) first, second, third, and fourth; and on 06/05/19 the wound nurse obtained an order to discontinue treatment due to refusals. From the time of the order until the order was discontinued there were sixty-two (62) opportunities to provide daily wound care treatment as ordered and it was documented treatment was provided as ordered on only eighteen (18) days, and three (3) days there was no documentation either way as to refusal or provision. There was no documented evidence the physician was notified of the resident's refusals until 06/05/19, when the order was discontinued. An interview with the wound nurse, Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN#84), on 06/10/19 at 11:44 AM, revealed LPN#84 said she kept trying to get R#33 to allow her to provide the wound treatment but he always refused. LPN#84 said the resident would let her clean and measure the wound weekly but not provide treatment and place a dry dressing on it daily as it was ordered. This surveyor requested evidence or documentation showing the resident refused wound care treatment, the physician was notified about the refusals of treatment, and R#33 was provided education concerning the importance of wound care and infection control. LPN#84 asked the nurse unit manager (LPN#61), to help review R#33's medical records for any of the requested documentation, while she finished the interview with this surveyor. LPN#84 said she was aware there was still some occasional drainage from the wound site. LPN#84 agreed the physician should have been notified concerning the resident's refusal of daily wound care and dressings. LPN#84 said she thought she contacted the physician sometime during the middle of (MONTH) and told the physician about the resident's refusal of treatment, however she said she did not document the conversation as she should have. When asked what instructions the physician gave her, LPN#84 said, I was to keep encouraging the resident to allow dressing changes. LPN#84 was asked by this surveyor if any other nursing staff tried to get the resident to comply with the ordered wound care treatment, such as the Center Nurse Executive (CNE), formerly known as the Director of Nursing or the Nurse Practitioner (NP). A Nurse Practitioner works in the facility three to four days a week and was available to see the resident. The wound nurse said she did not speak with the CNE or the NP or any other staff concerning R#33's refusals of wound care treatment. LPN#84 said she did not ask anyone else to see or speak to the resident to see if they might get R#33 to comply with the wound care treatment and/or to educate the resident on the importance of proper wound care and/or to ensure the resident understood. After review of the resident's medical records the nurse unit manager (LPN#61) stated she could find no documentation concerning refusal or non-compliance with the wound care treatment. LPN#61 said there was documentation concerning refusing care and non-compliance in other areas, but nothing concerning wound care. The facility was unable to provide any documentation or evidence that patient education was provided to the resident or any documentation that showed the physician was notified of the resident's refusals of wound care treatment. On 06/10/19 at 01:10 PM, interview with the resident revealed the wound still has some occasional drainage, but not as much as it did. When asked if anyone had explained to him the importance of wound care and applying a dry dressing to cover and catch any drainage the resident stated no one at the facility had talked to him about infections or the proper way to care for the wound. R#33 said he did not want a dressing on it now. R#33 said, I had training myself and if I wanted a dressing I'd ask for it, but it doesn't need one. When asked where he had training and what kind of training he had, the resident did not answer but informed this surveyor he was done talking about it. Review of Refusal of Treatment policy, on 06/10/19 at 03:55 PM, revealed if the patient refuses treatment staff will determine what the patient is refusing and why. Staff will try to address the patient's concerns and consult his/her supervisor. Notify physician of the refusal of treatment. Staff will determine and document what the patient is refusing; assess the reasons for refusal; advise patient of consequences of refusal; and offer alternative treatments. Document discussions with the patient/health care decision maker, physician, and other involved persons. The wound nurse did not follow the facility's policy on Refusal of Treatment.

The care plan was not revised timely to address resident's noncompliance with wound care treatments. The care plan was not revised to reflect any interventions addressing non-compliance and refusal of care in other areas that LPN#61 confirmed was documented in the resident's medical record. An interview with the Center Nurse Executive (CNE), on 06/10/19 at 2:30 PM, confirmed staff should have notified the physician sooner than 06/05/19, more than forty days after the resident consistently refused wound care treatment. The physician should have been notified when the resident continued refusing wound care treatment, so that the physician could order an alternative treatment if they chose to. The CNE confirmed R#33's care plan should have been revised with interventions concerning refusal of treatment and non-compliance prior to 06/05/19, due to R#33 medical record revealed non-compliance and refusal of care in other areas other than wound treatment.",2020-09-01

This was true for two (2) of two (2) reviewed in the care area of ADLS. Also, the facility failed to provide a communication board for Resident #105. This was true for one (1) of one (1) in the care area of communication. Resident identifiers: #33 and #78. Facility census: 111. Findings included: a) Resident #33 During an interview on 06/03/19 at 10:56 AM, Resident #33 said, that it is hard to get the aides to help him with a shower, they seem to pass him to another aide, and they take a lot of smoke brakes. He stated, that he must give himself a bed bath. When asked how long it had been since his last shower, he stated, that he did not know only that it has been too long. A review of the of the ADL records revealed that Resident #33 is scheduled to get a shower on Wednesdays and Saturdays, and he had no showers or baths for the month of April, and one (1) shower in the month of May. There was 15 days between his last shower until the shower he received on 06/06/19.

This was true for one (1) of one (1) sample residents reviewed for infections (not UTI or Respiratory) who was not provided education on wound care and infection control. This was true for one (1) of five (5) sample residents reviewed for falls that was not provided neuro checks appropriately after a fall. This practice had the potential to affect a limited number. Resident identifier: R#33 and R#60. Facility census: 111. Findings included: a) R#33 During the initial tour of the annual Long-Term Care Survey Process, on 06/03/19 at 11:15 AM, Surveyor# observed Resident (R#33) with dried crusted drainage around a small open circular wound site located on the resident's upper abdominal right side. This was identified as a concern for further investigation by Surveyor# due to the open wound draining and not being covered with a dressing. Review of records, on 06/10/19 at 11:01 AM, revealed R#33's brief interview for mental status (BIMs) score is fourteen (14) indicating the resident is cognitively intact. Some pertinent [DIAGNOSES REDACTED]. The resident was admitted to the facility after having incision and drainage (I&D) of abscesses, which developed after having lower-back spinal surgery and after having a cholecystectomy. A cholecystectomy is the surgical procedure to remove a gallbladder. After gallbladder surgery the resident had a drainage tube at the surgical site, on his right upper abdomen, to prevent the build-up of bile, blood, and/or infection. The resident developed an abscess on his right side and another incision and drainage procedure was performed and a drainage tube was again placed to facilitate healing. On 04/04/19, after the drainage tube was removed a new order was given to clean surgical incision to right side with wound cleanser, pat dry, and apply dry dressing every day. Review of the treatment administration record (TAR) revealed daily wound care treatment including a dry dressing was ordered and started on 04/04/19 and on 06/05/19 the wound nurse obtained an order to discontinue treatment due to resident refusing treatment. From the time of the order until the order was discontinued there were sixty-two (62) opportunities to provide daily wound care treatment and it was documented treatment was provided randomly only in the month of April. R#33 received wound care treatment eighteen (18) days due to resident refusing care on the other days, and three (3) times out of the sixty-two (62) opportunities to provide daily wound care treatment there was no documentation either way as to refusal or provision. An interview with the wound nurse, Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN#84), on 06/10/19 at 11:44 AM, revealed LPN#84 said she kept trying to get R#33 to allow her to provide the wound treatment but he always refused. LPN#84 said the resident would let her clean and measure the wound weekly but not provide treatment and place a dry dressing on it daily as it was ordered. This surveyor requested evidence or documentation showing the resident refused wound care treatment, the physician was notified about the refusals of treatment, and R#33 was provided education concerning the importance of wound care and infection control. LPN#84 asked the nurse unit manager (LPN#61), to help review R#33's medical records for any of the requested documentation, while she finished the interview with this surveyor. LPN#84 said she did not document notifying the physician about the refusal of treatment or any education concerning wound care or infection control. LPN#84 said she was aware there was still some occasional minimal drainage from the wound site. LPN#84 said she thought she contacted the physician sometime during the middle of (MONTH) and told the physician about the resident's refusal of treatment, however she said she did not document the conversation as she should have. When asked what instructions the physician gave her, LPN#84 said, I was to keep encouraging the resident to allow dressing changes. LPN#84 was asked by this surveyor if any other nursing staff tried to get the resident to comply with the ordered wound care treatment, such as the Center Nurse Executive (CNE), formerly known as the Director of Nursing or the Nurse Practitioner (NP). A Nurse Practitioner works in the facility three to four days a week and was available to see the resident. The wound nurse said she did not speak with the CNE or the NP or any other staff concerning R#33's refusals of wound care treatment. LPN#84 said she did not ask anyone else to see or speak to the resident to see if they might get R#33 to comply with the wound care treatment and/or to educate the resident on the importance of proper wound care and/or to ensure the resident understood. After review of the resident's medical records the nurse unit manager (LPN#61) stated she could find no documentation concerning refusal or non-compliance with the wound care treatment or any documentation or evidence that patient education was provided to the resident concerning wound care, disease processes, or infection control. On 06/10/19 at 01:10 PM, interview with the resident revealed the wound still has some occasional drainage, but not as much as it did. When asked if anyone had explained to him the importance of wound care and applying a dry dressing to cover and catch any drainage; the resident stated no one at the facility had talked to him about infections or the proper way to care for the wound. Review of Refusal of Treatment policy, on 06/10/19 at 03:55 PM, revealed if the patient refuses treatment staff will determine what the patient is refusing and why. Staff will try to address the patient's concerns and consult his/her supervisor. Staff will determine and document what the patient is refusing; assess the reasons for refusal; advise patient of consequences of refusal; and offer alternative treatments. Document discussions with the patient/health care decision maker, physician, and other involved persons. The wound nurse did not follow the facility's policy on Refusal of Treatment, particularly advising or educating the resident of consequences of refusal. An interview with the Center Nurse Executive (CNE), on 06/10/19 at 2:30 PM, confirmed the resident should have been provided education by staff regarding wound care, infection control, and disease processes that influence healing, and was not. b) Resident #60 On 06/10/19 at 09:55 AM, medical record review revealed Resident #60 had endured an un-witnessed fall on 05/22/19 at 3:00 PM while transferring from wheelchair to bed. Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) #110 documented that the Resident stated (typed as written), I hit head but not hurting. At that time, LPN #110 implemented neurological assessments (screening tool used post fall for monitoring and detection of head injury) with a start time of 3:00 PM. The neurological assessments were completed for the following dates and time: --05/22/19 at 3:00 PM --05/22/19 at 3:30 PM --05/22/19 at 4:00 PM --05/22/19 at 4:30 PM --05/22/19 at 5:30 PM --05/22/19 at 6:30 PM --05/22/19 at 7:30 PM --05/22/19 at 8:30 PM --05/23/19 at 12:30 AM --05/23/19 at 4:30 AM The neurological assessment flow sheet was found to be incomplete with no data in all the following categories: level of consciousness, pupil response, hand grasps, movement of extremities, and pain response for nine (9) of the ten (10) assessments completed. The first neurological assessment completed on 05/22/19 at 3:00 PM was the only neurological assessment found to be completed in its entirety. Review of the facility's Neurological policy on 06/10/19 at 11:20 AM revealed the following guidelines for completion of neuroglial assessments (after an unwitnessed fall) to be done at the following frequency: --Every 30 Minutes x 2 hours, then --Every 1 hour x four hours, then --Every four hours x 24 hours. Further review of the neurological assessment sheet revealed the neurological assessments were discontinued without completion for the frequency as indicated. The last neurological assessment was completed on 05/23/19 at 4:30 AM, for a total of ten (10) assessments. In order to complete the neurological assessments for the correct number of times as indicated in the facility's Neurological policy, fourteen (14) assessments should have been done with an end time and date of 05/23/19 at 8:30 PM. During an interview on 06/10/19 at 11:28 AM the Director of Nursing (DON) agreed that the neurological assessments for the Resident was not completed correctly. The DON stated the expectation is for nursing staff to complete all information on the Neurological Assessment Flow sheet, and nothing should ever be left blank. The DON also stated, Yes we stopped the neurological assessments too soon, we did not complete the 24-hour frequency. At 1:10 PM on 06/10/19 during an interview, LPN #110 verified the portion of the Neurological Assessment Flow Sheet that she completed, and agreed the assessments were not completed correctly and should not have been left blank for level of consciousness, pupil response, motor response, and pain response. LPN #110 stated, It just gets so busy around here, and it's hard to get everything done because it's so hectic, I should have done better.",2020-09-01

Policy review Facility Waste Management policy directed personnel to: --Discard contaminated sharps immediately be disposed in a sharp's container. --Not discard sharps in routine trash. 2. Observation During an interview on 06/04/19 at 9:40 AM, with the Resident #53's roommate, this surveyor observed Resident #53 in her wheelchair at the sink with the water running. Resident #53 then moved herself over to the window. Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) #85 entered the room and asked if she could turn off the water. She turned off the water and picked up a blue razor from the sink and threw it in the trash can under the sink. Resident #53 wheeled herself to the sink and removed the razor from the trash can. With the razor on her lap she wheeled herself back in front of her window and began the shave her left leg. Upon closer observation it was noted that her left ankle was bleeding. 3. Interviews This surveyor asked a passing employee get a nurse and distracted the resident with conversation. LPN #85 returned to the room and looked at Resident #53's left. LPN #85 left the room to retrieve supplies to treat the cuts to Resident #53's legs. There were seven (7) cuts on her left leg from the razor. On 06/04/19 at 10:00 AM, LPN #85 and Nurse Unit Manager (NUM) #61 returned to the room with supplies to treat the wounds. LPN #85 was asked how it Resident #53 had access to a razor. She said she uses the razor for the hairs on her chin, but she does it for her. Resident # 53 stated, that she does not remember where she got the razor from. During an interview with Administrator on 06/06/19 at 11:30 AM, was asked where the razors where kept. He stated they were stored in the clean utility room that had a coded lock on the door, inside the room they were stored in a drawer. He stated, that he does not understand how Resident #53 got a razor. During an interview on 06/10/19 at 10:00 AM, Director of Nursing (DoN) stated, that she has removed all razors from the utility rooms and put them in the medication rooms that are locked and only the nurses have access to and the NA have to sign the razors out and back in with a nurse for disposal.

Facility census: 111. Findings include: Observations of Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN#84) providing catheter care to Resident (R#68), on 06/05/19 at 04:13 PM, revealed the Foley catheter drainage tubing was not secured or anchored in anyway. LPN#84 first provided pressure ulcer wound care to R#68 for three (3) different areas on the resident's buttocks prior to providing catheter care. During the provision of care the resident was assisted to turn multiple times from side to side. The Foley catheter drainage tube was not secured to the resident's leg. Observations, during the repositioning of the resident to expose the areas being cared for, revealed strong tension, pulling, and stretching of the drainage tubing was occurring at times. The Foley catheter drainage tube's taut tension, pulling, and stretching had the potential to cause injury to the resident's urethra and urinary meatus. After LPN#84 stated she was finished doing catheter care, this surveyor asked what method the facility used to secure the Foley catheter drainage tube. LPN#84 then acknowledged the resident did not have an anchor device on and should have, and that she also forgot to anchor and secure the tubing when she did the catheter care. LPN#84 confirmed the catheter drainage tubing was supposed to be secured so it did not pull.

Some pertinent [DIAGNOSES REDACTED]. The resident has a history of having abscesses that have needed to be treated with incision and drainage (I&D) procedures. The resident last abscess was on his right side and on 04/04/19, after the drainage tube was removed a new order was given to clean surgical incision to right side with wound cleanser, pat dry, and apply dry dressing every day. Review of the treatment administration record (TAR) revealed daily wound care treatment including a dry dressing was ordered and started on 04/04/19 and on 06/05/19 the wound nurse obtained an order to discontinue treatment due to resident refusing treatment. From the time of the order until the order was discontinued there were sixty-two (62) opportunities to provide daily wound care treatment and it was documented treatment was provided randomly only in the month of April.

When asked if anyone had explained to him the importance of wound care and applying a dry dressing to cover and catch any drainage the resident stated no one at the facility had talked to him about infections or the proper way to care for the wound. An interview with the Center Nurse Executive (CNE), on 06/10/19 at 2:30 PM, confirmed staff should have notified the physician sooner than 06/05/19, more than forty days after the resident consistently refused wound care treatment. The physician should have been notified when the resident continued refusing wound care treatment, so that the physician could order an alternative treatment if they chose to. The CNE confirmed an open draining wound is an infection control issue. c) R#68 disposable wipes Observations of Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN#84) providing peri-care (washing the genitals and anal area) and catheter care to Resident (R#68), on 06/05/19 at 04:13 PM, revealed a breech in infection control principals. LPN#84 used packaged disposable wipes to provide the peri-care and to clean around the catheter drainage tube inserted in the resident's urethra. When the LPN finished providing peri-care she took her soiled gloved hand that was contaminated from providing peri-care and pushed a clean unused disposable wipe back into the package, thus contaminating the package of disposable wipes. LPN#84 acknowledge this was a breach in infection control principles. d) Resident #23 On 06/05/19 at 10:50 AM observation was made of a 60 milliliter (ml) syringe in Resident's room lying on her bedside table. The syringe was open to air, placed on top of a pile of papers beside a used tissue. The syringe appeared to be soiled with light brown crusty residue inside the syringe and along the tip. Liscensed Practical Nurse (LPN) #110 verified that syringe belonged to Resident #23, and it had been used for bolus tube feedings. LPN #110 agreed the syringe was not stored properly and discarded syringe into the trash. The syringe did not have any information written on it to indicate the time/date it was initiated for use. Review of facility's Enteral Feeding policy revealed instructions to label and date syringe, store in plastic bag or appropriate container, and the syringe can be used for 24 hours. During an interview on 06/05/19 at 12:30 PM the Director of Nursing (DON) agreed the syringe was maintained in an unsanitary manner. The DON stated, The syringe was improperly stored and should have been dated. Moving forward better measures will be taken. e) R68 On 06/03/18 at 2:01 PM during a random opportunity for discovery a catheter bag belonging to R68 was found on the floor under her bed.

In an interview on 5/3/18 at 8:49 AM the Assistant Director of Nursing #88, stated she is in charge of scheduling. She explained the facility has 7 units. 2 have a maximum of 20 residents, the other 5 have 22 beds. The facility attempts to schedule one CNA to 10-11 residents (2 CNAs per unit) on day and evening shifts. ADON #88 stated with call-ins, they are sometimes closer to one CNA with 15 residents. On the night shift, they attempt to schedule one CNA per unit. ADON #88 stated she knows staff frequently have to float between units, due to a lack of available staff. On 5/3/18 at 8:20 AM the Daily Staffing Postings for the past 3 months were reviewed. They revealed numerous shifts in which only 5 CNAs were scheduled, when the facility had a census of between 141-145. This gave each CNA up to 28 residents each, much higher than the one to 15 the ADON stated the facility felt comfortable with. For example, on 2/11/18, the night shift (for a census of 144), had 4 nurses and 5 CNAs. On night shift Friday, 3/2/18, 5 CNAs and 2 nurses were scheduled. On night shift Monday, 4/9/18, for a census of 147, 5 CNAs and 4 nurses were scheduled. On the night shift Sunday, 4/15/18, 5 CNAs and 3 nurses were scheduled; night shift Saturday 4/21/18 had 6 CNAs and 3 nurses. In an interview on 5/3/18 at 8:57 AM, the Administrator explained the facility has implemented numerous strategies to attempt to recruit and retain employees. She acknowledged it was an ongoing struggle due to a lack of certified staff and numerous other employers in the area. She acknowledged residents complained about the lack of staff at a recent Resident Council meeting. She stated she was not aware staff were telling residents they were unable to take breaks or that they were working short. She stated staff should not be telling residents this.",2020-09-01

Specifically, the facility failed to ensure proper pureed texture and failed to follow recipes for pureed food items for 12 residents that received a pureed texture out of 146 residents. This failed practice had the potential to affect more than a limited number of residents. Facility census: 142. Findings included: a) Facility policy The Progressive dysphagia diet: Puree policy, revised 01/2018, was provided by the Assistant Director of Nursing (ADON) #88 on 5/3/18 at 9:00 AM. The policy documented in pertinent part, .The diet uses slurried, blenderized, or pureed food that has a moist, pudding-like consistency without pulp or small food particles . Blenderized foods do not require chewing. They should have a pudding-like consistency without lumps (i.e., sour cream or mayonnaise thickness/moistness). All foods are appropriate if the consistency is pureed smooth without fibrous particles . b) Observations On 5/1/18 at 11:34 AM, Cook #119 was observed to remove two pans from the oven to take their temperatures. Cook #119 stated one was the mechanical texture pork and one was the pureed pork. The pureed pork was observed to have a similar texture as the mechanical pork. It appeared chunky. At 11:36 AM, the pureed cabbage was pulled out of the oven. The cabbage was observed to have visible chunks of cabbage in it. Staff began to plate meals for the lunch service at 11:54 AM, including pureed meals. The pork and cabbage were observed to be very chunky and the cabbage was watery. At 12:02 PM, the pureed pork and cabbage were taste tested . Neither of the puree food items had a smooth texture. Particles of meat and cabbage could be visualized and felt. On 5/2/18, the preparation of the pureed foods was observed from 10:08 AM to 10:30 AM. At 10:08 AM, Cook #119 was observed to place a third of the mixed vegetables in a 2.5 quart food processor. She processed the mixed vegetables and placed some melted butter and hot water in the mixture. She placed the pureed vegetables in a pan and proceeded to puree another third of the vegetables and then the last third of the vegetables. She placed the pureed vegetables together in the same pan. The texture was observed to have small particles from the vegetables in it. It was not smooth. She did not use a recipe while making the puree vegetables. She also did not taste it. The process of making the vegetables a third at a time could result in an inconsistency of texture throughout the mixture. At 10:24 AM, Cook #119 started making the pureed fish. She took one full pan of fish from the oven and spit it into two deep pans. She placed one pan into the 2.5 quart food processor and started to process the food along with some water. She checked the consistency with a spatula and put more water in the mixture. She then processed it again. At 10:27 AM, she placed the fish back into the pan. At 10:28 AM, the pureed vegetables and fish were taste tested . The vegetables were not completely smooth. They contained small particles from the vegetables that could be visibly seen and felt. The week 3 menu was reviewed on 5/1/18 at 11:10 AM. The lunch meal for Tuesday, 5/1/18, consisted of roast pork and haluski (a cabbage and noodle blend). The lunch meal for Wednesday, 5/2/18, consisted of lemon baked fish and California blend vegetables. The pureed recipes were reviewed on 5/3/18 at 9:30 AM. The pureed roast pork recipe was for 13 servings. The recipe called for 2 pounds and 7 ounces of roast pork, half cup and 2.5 tablespoons of thickener, and 2 5/8 cups of hot water. The method consisted of: 1. Place portions of meat (2 oz (ounces) each, no bone) needed into a food processor. Process to a fine texture. 2. Prepare slurry for the meat with the thickener and hot liquid. Mix well with a wire whip. 3. Add 1/2 of the slurry to the meat; process for 1 minute. If too dry, add more slurry until meat is pudding consistency. 4. With a rubber spatula, scrape down sides of the bowel; reprocess 30 seconds. The pureed haluski recipe was for 13 servings. The recipe called for 2 quarts and 1 3/4 cups of haluski, 1/4 cup and 1 1/4 tablespoons of thickener, and 2 cups of hot water. The method consisted of: Place portions needed from regular prepared recipe into a food processor. Process to a fine texture. Prepare a slurry with the thickener and hot liquid. Add the slurry to the processed noodle/cabbage mixture. Process until smooth. The pureed lemon baked fish recipe was for 13 servings. The recipe called for 13 fish, 3/4 cups and 1 tablespoon of thickener, and 2 5/8 cups of hot water. The method consisted of: Place portions needed from regular prepared recipe into a food processor. Process to a fine texture. For every 5 portions needed, prepare a slurry with 5 tbsp (tablespoons) and 1 cup hot liquid (water, milk, or broth); mix well with a wire whip. Add 1/2 of the slurry; process for 1 minute. If too dry, add more slurry until meat is pudding consistency with a rubber spatula, scrape down sides of the bowel; reprocess 30 seconds. The California blend vegetables recipe was for 13 services. The recipe called for 1 quart and 2 1/2 cups of vegetables and 1/4 cups and 2 1/2 tablespoons of thickener. The method consisted of: Remove portions needed from regular prepared recipe and place into a food processor. Process until fine; for every 5 portions needed, add 2.5 tbsp thickener; process until smooth. Scrape down sides of the bowl with a rubber spatula; reprocess 30 seconds. c) Interviews In an interview on 5/1/18 at 12:20 PM Cook #119 said there were 12 residents that received a pureed diet. She had made the pureed pork and cabbage. She said she always tasted the purees when she made them. She was told the purees were always supposed to be the consistency of mashed potatoes. She felt the pureed pork and cabbage were the appropriate consistencies. In an interview on 5/2/18 at 10:35 AM Cook #119 said she used to robo coupe for heavy meats and used the food processor for all other items. The recipe book was underneath the preparation table. She said she did not use the recipe book because she had been making purees for so long that she knew how it was supposed to look. She said she went by how each food item looked. She said the purees should never have pieces in them, as that was a good way for residents to choke. She said cabbage was hard to puree and get smooth but she thought all the purees for Tuesday and Wednesday were the appropriate consistency. In an interview on 5/3/18 at 10:08 AM the Dietary Manager stated she preferred when the cooks used the recipe book when making the pureed foods. Some of the cooks knew what the recipes were because they had made them so many times. She said the consistency of the purees should always be smooth with no chunks. She did not provide any oversight to ensure the purees were the appropriate consistency. She left it up to the cook to determine if it was the correct smoothness. If the cook did not think it was smooth enough then they would ask her what she thought. She said they used the robo coupe for bigger items and the processor for smaller items. The process for making the mixed vegetables was described to the Dietary Manager. She said the cooks should not be pureeing items in portions. It should all be done at once so the consistency was the same throughout the mixture. The cooks should use the robo coupe for everything unless it could all fit into the processor at once. She expected the cooks to taste test the puree to ensure it tasted good and was the proper consistency.",2020-09-01

One trash can had a foot pedal that opened the top. The other trash can had a lid on top that had to be manually opened. Multiple observations were made on 5/1/18 from 11:10 AM to 12:25 PM. At 11:30 AM, Cook #119 was observed to mix cabbage and noodles togethers. During this process, the food mixture touched her oven mitt that was holding onto the pan. At 11:37 AM, Cook #119 was observed to gather the serving utensils to serve from the steam table. While transporting the utensils to the steam table, she held the ladle for the gravy up next to her chest, touching her shirt. Her shirt was visibly dirty with food debris. At 11:45 AM, Dietary Staff #89 was observed spreading butter on slices of bread, while wearing gloves. When she was finished with the butter, she covered it with plastic wrap and pulled a pen out of her shirt to write the date. Wearing the same gloves, she proceeded to place the buttered bread in a pan and grab slices of cheese to make grilled cheeses. Cook #119 served the lunch meal from the steam table. Multiple observations were made during the lunch service from 11:54 AM to 12:25 PM. While Cook #119 served, she was observed to place two to three plates along the steam table. She then leaned across the plates to get food from the back of the steam table. As she did this, her shirt touched the plates. This process was observed several times. From 11:10 AM to 12:25 PM, multiple observations were made of staff changing their gloves without washing their hands between glove changes. Food preparation was observed on 5/2/18 from 10:00 AM to 10:30 AM. At 10:02 AM, Cook #119 was observed to leave the kitchen with a measuring cup full of butter. She was observed to use the microwave in the staff break room. She came back into the kitchen at 10:05 AM and the butter was melted. She did not wash her hands when she returned to the kitchen. She proceeded to prepare the pureed foods and used the butter for the vegetables. At 10:09 AM, after Cook #119 made a batch of pureed vegetables in the food processor, the blade fell out as she poured the mixture into the pan. She touched the blade, rinsed it off under some water, and then placed it back into the processor. She proceeded to make other portions of pureed vegetables. At 10:18 AM, Cook #119 was observed to dry off her hands and place the paper towel in the trash can with the manual lid on top of it. She had to touch the trash can lid to place the paper towel inside. Cook #119 stated that the trash can with the manual lid was the trash can they used for everything, including after they washed their hands. She said the trash can with the pedal was used for salad preparation. At 10:24 AM, Cook #119 grabbed the food processor pieces and spatula that had been sanitized in the three-compartment sink. While transporting the food processor pieces and spatula to the preparation area, she held the pieces up against her shirt. Her shirt was visibly soiled with food debris. From 10:00 AM to 10:30 PM, multiple observations were made of staff changing their gloves without washing their hands between glove changes. c) Interviews In an interview on 5/3/18 at 10:08 AM the Dietary Manager stated every time a staff member changed gloves, they were supposed to wash their hands. Staff were also supposed to wash their hands each time they entered the kitchen. If they left to go to the breakroom, then they needed to wash their hands when they returned. She stated she did not know why there was not a microwave in the kitchen but said staff should not have to go to the break room to use the microwave for food preparation. She said when transporting clean utensils, they should be carried away from the body. If the utensils touched the body, such as a shirt, then that was unsanitary. Clothing was not supposed to touch plates as meals were being served from the steam table.",2020-09-01

I was supposed to give it to a resident across the hall. This is only the second time that I worked down there (referring to the hallway where Resident #120 resides.) I only have the computer to go by. I don't really know the people. I just made a mistake. Nurse #4 stated, As soon as I gave it to her (Resident#120) she said, But I'm not a diabetic. Why am I getting insulin? Nurse #4 stated that he had administered 30 units of [MEDICATION NAME]to Resident #120.

Effective 08/01/15, all nursing home facilities were required to .prescreen all direct access personnel applicants considered for hire for negative findings by way of an Internet search of registries and licensure databases through the WV Cares website. WV CARES is administered by the Department of Health and Human Resources and the WV State Police Criminal Investigation Bureau (CIB) in consultation with the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS), the Department of Justice (DOJ) and the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI). The program uses web-based technologies to provide employers a single portal for checking state and national abuse registries and the state and national sex offender registries. The web-based system also provides employers access to Nurse Aide Registries for all 50 states and professional licensure registries where available. The web based system provides an efficient and effective means for an employer to check an applicant's status prior to paying the cost of a criminal history background check. Through fingerprinting, this program provides a comprehensive criminal history records search of national and state criminal history records that was not available under the previous reliance on name-based record searches. The program relies on new technology to monitor criminal histories and alert officials when a subsequent change in criminal history occurs (i.e., rapback) A monitored criminal history record means the cost of re-fingerprinting is not required for employees who change employers in this industry (or apply for work at more than one employer) within the timeframe of a valid background check. All fitness determinations will be performed by WV CARES who have cleared state and federal background check requirements.

The family member was unsure of the exact date this happened, but stated it occurred approximately three (3) weeks ago. The family member also stated Resident #73 had been transported to the wound care facility without his dentures the day of the interview, 08/29/17. Unit Manager (UM) #87 was interviewed on 09/05/17 at 8:30 a.m. UM #87 stated several weeks ago there was a miscommunication with Emergency Medical Services (EMS) and Resident #73 was transferred to his appointment at the wound care facility wrapped in a sheet and dressed only in an incontinence brief. UM stated EMS did not want to wait for the resident to be dressed, and that is why they did not inform the staff Resident #87 was not dressed appropriately for an appointment. UM #87 was unable to explain why Resident #73 was in bed dressed only in an incontinence brief when EMS arrived. However, he stated it was breakfast time and hectic. He also stated Resident #73 had recently been admitted and the facility was not aware he had an appointment at the wound care facility the morning he was transferred only in an incontinence brief. UM stated he would have made sure Resident #87 had been dressed if he had been aware the resident was not dressed. During the interview on 09/05/17 at 8:30 a.m., UM #87 also stated he was aware that Resident #73 had been transferred to the wound care facility without his dentures. UM stated he didn't feel the resident needed his dentures for a wound care clinic. However, because the resident's family member stated she preferred the resident to wear his dentures to appointments, staff now made sure this was done. On 09/05/17 at 9:35 a.m., Resident #73 was observed being transported by EMS to his appointment at the wound care facility. Morning hygiene had been performed, and resident was dressed in a shirt and pants. He was wearing dentures. During an interview on 09/05/17 at 9:35 a.m., EMS stated they had never transported Resident #73 before, and, therefore, were unable to provide information regarding the incident during which he was dressed only in an incontinence brief. However, EMS stated the facility usually had residents ready for transportation to appointments. EMS stated they would alert the nurse if a resident was not dressed, but sometimes they have to transport the resident anyway due to time constraints. The Director of Nursing was interviewed on 09/05/17 at 11:16. She provided no further information regarding the situation.",2020-09-01

On 09/05/17 at 12:12 p.m. during an interview with Assistant Director of Nursing (ADON) #40 it was explained that the nursing staff did not have good coordination with the [MEDICAL TREATMENT] center regarding the care for Resident #382. The issues with the confusion over which days and what time the resident went to [MEDICAL TREATMENT] was discussed as well as the issues with the Permacath, medications and dietary. Following the interview with the ADON, RN #87 telephoned the [MEDICAL TREATMENT] center. The following note was recorded in the resident's medical record, Spoke with (staff name) at [MEDICAL TREATMENT] center to clarify [MEDICAL TREATMENT] order for resident. (Staff name) confirmed that her scheduled time is to be MWF at 1800 but is subject to change based on center's availability. (Name of ambulance company) to transport to all appointment times.

Resident is aware of the above and agrees with all f) Resident #19 On 07/17/17 a laboratory specimen for a renal panel was collected per the physician's orders [REDACTED]. The results of the specimen were reviewed by the physician on 07/17/17. The results indicated the following abnormalities: Sodium was high, Chloride was high, BUN (blood Urea Nitrogen) was high, Glucose was high and Calcium was low. The physician ordered a no added salt diet and directed staff to encourage oral fluids, after reviewing the laboratory results. The physician advised the nurse to contact the resident's responsible party to determine if the responsible party wants repeated laboratory reports. Further review of the resident's Physician order [REDACTED]. Under the heading, Medically Administered Fluids and Nutrition, No Labs, had been hand written under the category of other orders. A straight line had been drawn through, No Labs, and above was hand written D/C 05/20/15. The POST form was unclear as to if the responsible party wanted or did not want any laboratory values drawn. The Director Of Nursing reviewed the laboratory report and the POST form at 10:10 a.m. on 08/30/17. She said she would follow up with the unit manager, Registered Nurse (RN) #116 to see if she contacted the responsible party. At 12:06 p.m. on 08/30/17, the DON said she was unable to find any evidence the responsible party was contacted in regards to obtaining future laboratory values.",2020-09-01

At 2:19 p.m. on 08/30/17, the unit manager, Registered Nurse (RN) #116 said the restorative aides keep paper documentation of restorative services provided to residents. RN #116 said the resident had not received any therapy and she did not know why. RN #116 called Restorative Aide (RA) #33 to review the restorative therapy services. RA #33 said the resident had not had any therapy because a second aide who normally works this floor had not been working due to an injury. RA #33 said she had not been on this floor since last Thursday because she had been pulled to the floor to work as a nursing assistant. At 12:50 p.m. on 09/05/17, RN #116 was asked if the second restorative aide had returned to work. She said the RA was in the dining room today. An interview with the second RA #42 at 1:05 p.m. on 09/05/17, found he was in the dining room assisting with lunch. RA #42 said he was on light duty so he would not be able to work with Resident #19. At 1:10 p.m. RA #33 said she worked the floor yesterday so she did not get to see the resident. She stated, I last saw her on 08/31/17 and she refused her therapy.

The facility was unaware Resident #90, who had resided at the facility since 02/12/15, had a upper partial. Resident identifier: #90. Facility census: 180. Findings include: a) Resident #90 Observation of the resident's oral cavity at 10:41 a.m. on 08/29/17, found the resident had what appeared to be her own teeth. Some were missing, discolored and were covered with a white, chalky substance that appeared to be plaque. Observation of the resident's oral cavity with the Registered Nurse (RN) unit manager, at 12:57 p.m. on 09/05/17, found RN #116 discovered the resident had an upper partial and, What looks like a cavity on the lower back tooth. The resident said she had a partial. She stated, I am not going to show it to you because you might steal it. Three (3) nursing assistants (NA's) #47, #5 and #58, (all working on the resident's unit) and RN #116 denied knowing the resident had a partial at 1:21 p.m. on 09/05/17. All denied removing the partial for cleaning. RN #116 was asked if she could find any evidence the facility was ever aware the resident had a partial or any documentation the partial had been removed for cleaning. Record review found the resident was admitted to the facility on [DATE]. The most recent minimum data set (MDS), a quarterly, with an assessment reference date (ARD) of 06/29/17 notes the resident requires extensive assistance of 1 staff member for personal hygiene, which includes brushing teeth. Review of the last 3 nursing monthly assessments, dated 06/12/17, 07/12/17, and 08/12/17 noted the resident has her own teeth under the section entitled, Dentition. The form also allowed the nurse completing the assessment to note the resident had a Partial(s) Bridge(s). This section was not completed, indicating the resident did not have a partial. At approximately 3:00 p.m. on 09/05/17, the Registered Nurse (RN), Resident Care Manager, #3, provided a progress note from a local dentist. She said the family had requested a dental appointment during the resident's care plan meeting. She said the resident did not cooperate and a follow up appointment was going to be scheduled when the family could attend. She said this was the only dental consult she could find for the resident. The dental consult, dated 08/02/17 noted: Patient barely opened mouth for exam. Patient states she does wear a partial on the MX (maxillary) however was unable to have her remove it.

Resident #141 and Resident #320 both suffered a decline in bladder continence status since their admission to the facility. The facility failed to consistently provide services to these residents to help them to maintain their bladder continence status. This practice affected two (2) of four (4) residents reviewed for the care area of urinary incontinence during Stage Two (2) of the Quality Indicator Survey (QIS). Resident Identifiers: #141 and #320. Facility Census: 180. Findings Include: a) Resident #141 During a Stage 1 interview with Resident #141 at 11:12 a.m. on 08/29/17, when asked if she received enough fluids between meals Resident #141 replied, they bring me plenty to drink but I watch what I drink because I wet on myself now and I never used to do that and I don't like it so I try not to drink to much. A review of Resident #141's medical record beginning at 8:02 a.m. on 09/07/17, found Resident #141 was admitted to the facility on [DATE] at which time she had an indwelling urinary catheter. Resident #141 continued to have a catheter until 01/27/17 at which time it was removed. A review of the nurse aides documentation pertaining to urinary continence was completed beginning with (MONTH) (YEAR) through 09/07/17. This review found the following ( the review was not started until (MONTH) due to the use of the catheter until 01/27/17): In (MONTH) (YEAR) Resident #141 was incontinent of her bladder 16.25 percent (%) of the time. In (MONTH) (YEAR) Resident #141 was incontinent of her bladder 16.48 % of the time. In (MONTH) (YEAR) Resident #141 was incontinent of her bladder 5.19 % of the time. In (MONTH) (YEAR) Resident #141 was incontinent of her bladder 79.57 % of the time. In (MONTH) (YEAR) Resident #141 was incontinent of her bladder 83.70 % of the time. In (MONTH) (YEAR) Resident #141 was incontinent of her bladder 73.91 % of the time. In (MONTH) (YEAR) Resident #141 was incontinent of her bladder 78.49 % of the time. In (MONTH) (YEAR) Resident #141 was incontinent of her bladder 78.95 % of the time. Further review of the record found a physician order [REDACTED]. This order was added after the resident had a fall as an intervention to prevent further falls. This toileting plan was not initiated due to Resident #141's decline in continence status. Review of Resident #141's Minimum Data Sets (MDS) found the following: An admission MDS with an Assessment Reference Date (ARD) of 12/13/17 found the resident had an Indwelling Catheter and was occasionally incontinent of urine and was not in a toileting program. A quarterly MDS with an ARD of 03/13/17 found the resident was occasionally incontinent or urine and was not currently in a toileting program. A quarterly MDS with an ARD of 06/02/17 found the resident was frequently incontinent of urine and was not currently in a toileting program. (Please note this MDS was completed after the toileting plan was ordered on [DATE].) Further review of the record found Resident #141 had the following bowel and bladder evaluations completed. Each bowel and bladder evaluation contained these directions for completion If resident is continent of both bowel and bladder evaluation complete. If resident is Incontinent of either bowel and/or bladder continue with the evaluation: -- Evaluation Dated 12/06/17 indicated Resident #141 was incontinent of urine. (Please note at the time this evaluation was completed Resident #141 had an indwelling catheter and her continent status could not be determined as incontinent due to the catheter.) -- Evaluation Dated 03/06/17 indicated Resident #141 was continent of urine. The remainder of the evaluation was not completed because she was marked as continent of bowel and bladder therefore the evaluation was complete. -- Evaluation Dated 06/06/17 indicated Resident #141 was incontinent of bladder. The remainder of this evaluation was not complete even though it should have been completed because Resident #141 was marked as incontinent of bowel and bladder. The Director of Nursing was interviewed at 8:45 a.m. on 09/07/17 she was asked to show evidence the toileting plan initiated on 05/15/17 was being implemented by the Nurse Aides. She referred to the treatment administration record (TAR). Review of the TAR for 05/2017 through 09/07/17 found the nurses initialed the toileting plan as being completed three times daily at 7:00 a.m., 3:00 p.m., and 11:00 p.m. Further review of the TARs found on the following dates and times the nurses failed to initial the toileting plan was completed: -- 05/16/17 at 3:00 p.m. -- 05/17/17 at 7:00 a.m. -- 05/19/17 at 7:00 a.m. -- 06/08/17 at 7:00 a.m. -- 06/09/17 at 7:00 a.m. -- 07/14/17 at 3:00 p.m. -- 07/19/17 at 3:00 p.m. and 11:00 p.m. -- 07/20/17 at 3:00 p.m. -- 07/25/17 at 7:00 a.m. -- 07/26/17 at 3:00 p.m. -- 07/29/17 at 7:00 a.m. -- 09/05/17 at 3:00 p.m. The DON was then asked if the nurse aides document anywhere to indicate the resident is on a toileting program. She pulled up a follow up question report, in the electronic medical record, for Resident #141. The question which the nurse aides were asked to answer on every shift was, Is the resident on a toileting or bladder retraining program? A review of the nurse aides answers were reviewed for the time period of 05/15/17 through 09/07/17 and found the nurse aides only answered yes to this question on 05/31/17 at 8:30 a.m., 06/30/17 at 2:58 p.m., 07/21/17 at 8:39 a.m., 08/08/17 at 6:38 p.m., 08/12/17 at 9:33 a.m., 08/13/17 at 9:36 a.m., 08/17/17 at 7:35 a.m., 08/21/17 at 7:58 a.m., and 08/27/17 at 4:31 p.m. On all other days three times daily the Nurse Aides answered no to this question. The DON agreed the Nurse Aides are responsible for toileting the resident on the majority of occasions. She stated, The nurses are supposed to make sure it is done. The DON was also asked why the remainder of the bowel and bladder evaluation dated 06/06/17 was not completed. She agreed the remainder of the evaluation should have been completed because the resident was marked as incontinent of her bowel and bladder. She indicated she did not know why the evaluation was not complete and stated, It should not have let them sign it as complete with it remaining blank. A final interview was completed with the DON, the District Director of Clinical Services and the Nursing Home Administrator, at 12:20 p.m. on 09/07/17. At which time they asserted the resident's fluid intake with her meals had not decreased, but they had no way of measuring the amount of fluids which the resident took in between meals which was the subject of the Stage 1 question posed to Resident #141. They also asserted that nursing will at times toilet the resident which is likely true, but they agreed the majority of the toileting program implementation was the responsibility of the Nurse Aides who were documenting that Resident #141 was not on a toileting program. No other information was provided. b.) Resident #320 Review of Resident #320's medical record at 8/30/17 at 12:25 p.m., found: MDS Findings: Section H' Bladder and Bowel 4/29/17: H0300.

He explained the events that led up to his admission in April, as well as the therapy he received initially. He explained that he isn't able to walk, and transfers in his wheelchair. When asked if the facility had him on a scheduled toileting program, and he replied, No. Observation found his call-light was within his reach. When asked if he turns on the call-light when he needs to go to the restroom. Resident stated, No, they come and change me twice a day, every morning and every evening. They used to change me only one time a day, and they recently increased changing me two times a day.

On 09/05/17 at 12:12 p.m. during an interview with Assistant Director of Nursing (ADON) #40 it was explained that the nursing staff did not have good coordination with the [MEDICAL TREATMENT] center regarding the care for Resident #382. The issues with the confusion over which days and and what time the resident went to [MEDICAL TREATMENT] was discussed as well as the issues with the Permacath, medications and dietary. Following the interview with the ADON, RN #87 telephoned the [MEDICAL TREATMENT] center. The following note was recorded in the resident's medical record, Spoke with (staff name) at [MEDICAL TREATMENT] center to clarify [MEDICAL TREATMENT] order for resident. (Staff name) confirmed that her scheduled time is to be MWF at 1800 but is subject to change based on center's availability. (Name of ambulance company) to transport to all appointment times.

The results of the specimen were reviewed by the physician on 07/17/17. The results indicated the following abnormalities: Sodium was high, Chloride was high, BUN (blood Urea Nitrogen) was high, Glucose was high and Calcium was low. The physician ordered a no added salt diet and directed staff to encourage oral fluids, after reviewing the laboratory results. The physician advised the nurse to contact the resident's responsible party to determine if the responsible party wants repeated laboratory reports. Further review of the resident's Physician order [REDACTED]. Under the heading, Medically Administered Fluids and Nutrition, No Labs, had been hand written under the category of other orders. A straight line had been drawn through, No Labs, and above was hand written D/C 05/20/15. The POST form was unclear as to if the responsible party wanted or did not want any laboratory values drawn. The Director Of Nursing reviewed the laboratory report and the POST form at 10:10 a.m. on 08/30/17. She said she would follow up with the unit manager, Registered Nurse (RN) #116 to see if she contacted the responsible party. At 12:06 p.m. on 08/30/17, the DON said she was unable to find any evidence the responsible party was contacted in regards to obtaining future laboratory values. c) Resident #284 Resident #284 was discharged from the facility to an outside hospital on [DATE] due to lethargy and a general decline in his condition. At the time of his discharge, Resident #284 had a stage IV pressure ulcer on his right heel. He also had a surgical wound on his coccyx where a skin flap procedure had been performed.

The pressure ulcer was described as a Stage III with measurements of 3 cm x 3.2 cm x 1 cm. The wound base was noted to be 100% yellow tissue. Because the right lower leg pressure ulcer had not been assessed upon admission, it cannot be determined whether the wound worsened from the time of admission on 08/26/17 to the time of assessment on 08/28/17. According to the facility's Skin Management policy and procedure with a revision date of (MONTH) (YEAR), Residents admitted with skin impairments will have wound location and characteristics documented in the Nursing admitted Collection Set (UDA).

No further information was provided. b) Investigate Individuals and Report Allegations 1. WV CARES West Virginia Code 16-49-9 established new criminal background check requirements for applicants for employment as direct access personnel in long-term care facilities. Effective 08/01/15, all nursing home facilities were required to .prescreen all direct access personnel applicants considered for hire for negative findings by way of an Internet search of registries and licensure databases through the WV Cares website. WV CARES is administered by the Department of Health and Human Resources and the WV State Police Criminal Investigation Bureau (CIB) in consultation with the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS), the Department of Justice (DOJ) and the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI). The program uses web-based technologies to provide employers a single portal for checking state and national abuse registries and the state and national sex offender registries. The web-based system also provides employers access to Nurse Aide Registries for all 50 states and professional licensure registries where available. The web based system provides an efficient and effective means for an employer to check an applicant's status prior to paying the cost of a criminal history background check. Through fingerprinting, this program provides a comprehensive criminal history records search of national and state criminal history records that was not available under the previous reliance on name-based record searches. The program relies on new technology to monitor criminal histories and alert officials when a subsequent change in criminal history occurs (i.e., rapback) A monitored criminal history record means the cost of re-fingerprinting is not required for employees who change employers in this industry (or apply for work at more than one employer) within the timeframe of a valid background check. All fitness determinations will be performed by WV CARES who have cleared state and federal background check requirements. Employers will receive a notice of the applicants employment eligibility once the fingerprint based background check results are received. At 8:48 a.m. on 08/30/17 a Notification of Eligible Fitness Determination letter from WV Cares was requested for Employee #150 who was hired in the dietary department on 04/10/17.

This was true for 1 of 5 residents reviewed for care area of accidents. This practice had the potential to affect a limited number of residents. Resident identifiers: R#116. Facility census: 181 Findings included: a) Resident #116 Review of resident (R#116)'s recent annual minimum data set (MDS) with an assessment reference date (ARD) 09/06/19, on 10/08/19 at 03:53 PM, revealed the following. The resident's Brief Interview for Mental Status (BIMS) score is 3 indicating the resident has a severe cognitive impairment. R#116 needs extensive assistance with all activities of daily living and has range of motion impairments on both sides of his upper and lower extremities. The resident has an indwelling catheter and is continent of bowels. Some pertinent [DIAGNOSES REDACTED]. The resident takes Antipsychotic medication daily. The resident has history of falls and currently participates in occupational therapy services. Review of records, on 10/08/19 at 04:23 PM, revealed the resident had an unwitnessed fall in the courtyard on 08/19/19. The resident fell out of his wheelchair bending forward to retrieve an item off the ground. The resident suffered an abrasion above the right eye on 08/19/19. Approximately a month later, on 09/12/19, the resident again fell out of wheelchair in courtyard reaching forward to pick something up off the ground, causing an abrasion to the back of his left hand's knuckle area. On 10/09/19 at 10:29 AM, an interview with Registered Nurse (RN#96) revealed at every morning meeting a post fall review from the day before is completed. If a fall is unwitnessed or if the resident hits their head, then a physical therapy referral is made for an evaluation and neuro checks are done for 3 days after the fall. Records showed an interdisciplinary team (IDT) meeting note dated 8/20/19, was held to discuss the fall occurring on 8/19/19. The note included the following Intervention: hey therapy (physical therapy referral), neuro-checks, skin treatment/first aid, provider eval with an order for [REDACTED]. Review of records showed a revision was made to R#116's care plan after the first fall but no revisions were made the second time the resident had a similar fall. R#116's care plan, on 10/09/19 at 10:56 AM, revealed the facility's intervention was to provide the resident with a reacher at bedside. A reacher is a reaching extension tool used for grasping items in hard-to-reach places without having to bend over. This intervention would be helpful to the resident with picking up items without the resident stretching out and toppling forward, however the resident was not toppling forward out of his bed, but out of his wheelchair. There was no evidence the facility assessed or reevaluated the effectiveness of the intervention of a reacher bedside after the resident had the second similar fall. There was no evidence the facility monitored or encouraged the resident to use the reacher. An interview with RN#96, on 10/09/19 at 11:08 AM, revealed RN#96 confirmed there was no evidence the facility assessed or reevaluated the effectiveness of the intervention of a reacher bedside. RN#96 said, The resident did not fall out of the bed, but both times out of his wheelchair, reaching for things on the ground. RN#96 reviewed records and confirmed there was no evidence the facility monitored or encouraged the resident to use the reacher, nor were there any other different interventions put into place after the second fall.",2020-09-01

The facility failed to follow up with the [MEDICAL TREATMENT] center regarding pre and post weights, and failed to follow the medication recommendations from the [MEDICAL TREATMENT] center. This practice had the potential to affect a limited number of residents. Resident identifiers: R#151. Facility census: 181 Findings included: a) Resident #151 Resident (R#151) was transferred and admitted to the facility on [DATE], after the resident had a failed kidney transplant. Some pertinent [DIAGNOSES REDACTED]. The resident was admitted to current [MEDICAL TREATMENT] services on 09/04/19. Interview with Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN#84), on 10/09/19 at 01:55 PM, revealed the facility maintains a communication record with the [MEDICAL TREATMENT] center in a [MEDICAL TREATMENT] communication book. The facility keeps forms in the book that requires pertinent information to be recorded by [MEDICAL TREATMENT] staff and facility nursing staff. Review of the resident's [MEDICAL TREATMENT] communications book with LPN#84 revealed the post [MEDICAL TREATMENT] section for R#151 was not completed by [MEDICAL TREATMENT] staff each time R#151 went to [MEDICAL TREATMENT]. The facility staff failed to follow up and obtain the pre and post weights from the [MEDICAL TREATMENT] center on 09/06/19, and post weights on 09/11/19. The facility staff failed to follow up or discontinue medications the [MEDICAL TREATMENT] center identified on 09/06/19 and requested the resident stop taking. ` The [MEDICAL TREATMENT] communication sheet dated 09/06/19 revealed no pre or post [MEDICAL TREATMENT] weights were recorded. In the 'Recommendation/Follow-up' section of the communication sheet dated 09/06/19 where orders from the [MEDICAL TREATMENT] center are written, the [MEDICAL TREATMENT] center specified Stop Calcium Acetate, Stop [MEDICATION NAME], and Please continue [MEDICATION NAME]. Review of records showed, since R#151's admission to the facility, the resident was not taking [MEDICATION NAME] or [MEDICATION NAME]. The resident was taking [MEDICATION NAME] suspension related to kidney transplant status, which is a [MEDICATION NAME] for organ rejection. The resident was taking Calcium Acetate 1334 mg daily and continued to take it until surveyor intervention. LPN#84 confirmed staff should have contacted the [MEDICAL TREATMENT] center and obtained weights, followed the [MEDICAL TREATMENT] center recommendations, and clarified the resident's medications. Review of orders revealed Calcium Acetate Capsule 667 mg (milligrams). Give 2 capsule by mouth with meals every Mon, Wed, Fri related to End Stage [MEDICAL CONDITION] (Time on [MEDICAL TREATMENT] days) 2 capsules to equal 1334 mg; and Calcium Acetate Capsule 667 mg. Give 2 capsule by mouth with meals every Tue, Thu, Sat, Sun related to End Stage [MEDICAL CONDITION] (Timed for non-[MEDICAL TREATMENT] days) 2 capsules to equal 1334 mg. Review of R#151's Medication Administration Record [REDACTED]. The resident received Calcium Acetate (a base binder) for thirty-three (33) more days after it should have been discontinued. On 10/10/19 at 11:53 AM, a phone interview with the [MEDICAL TREATMENT] Center Clinic Manager revealed R#151 was admitted to [MEDICAL TREATMENT] service on 09/04/19 and labs were taken at that time showing the resident's calcium was high and phosphorus level was low. Calcium and phosphorus are essential minerals found in the bone, blood and soft tissue of the body and have a role in numerous body functions. The [MEDICAL TREATMENT] Center Clinic Manager stated their doctor does not like to use a calcium base binder (binds to phosphorus to remove phosphorus from the body) and since the resident's phosphorus was already low. The [MEDICAL TREATMENT] Center Clinic Manager voiced concern that by R#151 continuing to take the binder it could make R#151's phosphorus levels even lower. The [MEDICAL TREATMENT] Center Clinic Manager said the facility had contacted them yesterday and notified them the resident had continued to receive the Calcium Acetate, so labs were drawn, and they were awaiting the results. (Surveyor was notified by the [MEDICAL TREATMENT] Center Clinic Manager the last lab results were within normal limits.)",2020-09-01

The definition of abuse was noted as the willful infliction of injury, unreasonable confinement, intimidation, or punishment with resulting physical harm, pain or mental anguish. This also includes the depravation by an individual, including a caretaker, of goods or services that are necessary to attain or maintain physical, mental, and psychosocial well-being. Number seven (7) of the abuse policy required when suspicion or reports of abuse, neglect or exploitation or reports of abuse occur, an investigation is immediately warranted. Once the resident is cared for and the initial reporting has occurred, an investigation should be conducted. Components of an investigation may include: Interview the involved resident, if possible, and if the resident is cognitively impaired interview several times to compare responses. Other interviews may include family members, roommates, residents in adjoining rooms, staff members in the area, and visitors in the area.

The screens in the windows of ten (10) out of thirty (30) resident rooms were either torn or not adequately secured snugly to the window. This had the potential to allow entrance of insects or flies into resident rooms. Rooms: 27, 29, 24, 21, 20, 18, 15, 13, 10, 9. Facility census: 53. Findings included: a) room [ROOM NUMBER] On 06/25/19 at 9:45 AM an inspection was made of room [ROOM NUMBER]. The first bed was stripped bare. A tag on the foot of the bed noted this bed was deep cleaned by housekeeping staff on 06/22/19. Resident #49 lay in the bed by the window. The large picture window in this room was closed. A screen was observed in the middle section of the picture window. When asked if she ever opened this window, she replied in the affirmative. The interim director of nursing (DON) unlocked the window and slid it toward the right. The screen had a tear in the lower left corner which was opened to about a two (2) inch by two (2) inch hole. This hole could allow entrance of an insect or a fly into the room if the window was to be opened. The interim DON said she did not know this window could be opened or ever was opened. She noted that the screen also did not fit tightly against the window pane and was loose. She said she would have maintenance make the necessary repairs to this window screen. When asked if a visitor or family member of either resident in this room could potentially have opened the window and let a fly into the room, she said she guessed that was possible. The interim DON informed the administrator of the window screen situation. The administrator then gave directives to the maintenance department to check all the windows in resident rooms for tears in screens or for ill-fitting screens. b) A tour of the facility to check the windows and screens of resident room was conducted on 06/25/19 from 12:30 PM to 1:00 PM. The following issues were found as follows: 1. room [ROOM NUMBER] - The screen does not fit the window securely. There was a small hole in the screen on the right lower corner where it was not flush with the window. 2. room [ROOM NUMBER] - The right side of the screen does not fit tightly. There screen had a gap at the bottom of the window about twelve (12) inches wide. The frame of the screen did not fit well. 3. room [ROOM NUMBER] - The screen on the right toward the bottom corner had a small hole. There was a small hole in the middle on the bottom portion. 4. room [ROOM NUMBER] - The screen had two (2) small holes on the bottom left and middle. 5. room [ROOM NUMBER] - The screen on the lower middle and lower right side had had two (2) small holes. 6. room [ROOM NUMBER] - The screen was loose and did not fit tightly against the metal frame about ten (10) to twelve (12) inches on the left lower side. 7. room [ROOM NUMBER] - The screen on the right side of the left window did not fit snugly against the metal frame. 8. room [ROOM NUMBER] - The left side and the top of the left window screen was very loose. 9. room [ROOM NUMBER] - The lower left area of the screen in the right window has an open area. c) A tour of the facility was conducted with the interim DON on 06/26/19 at approximately 3:00 PM.

Observations during Stage 1 of the Quality Indicator Survey (QIS) found a Soiled Utility closet on Wing one (1) was unlocked with chemicals stored on a shelf, and the Clean Room, which contained biologicals. This had the potential to affect more than an isolated number of residents. Facility census: 55 Findings include: a) Observations of Wing one (1) On 10/16/17 at 10:51 a.m., during an observation on Wing one (1), it was discovered the Soiled Utility closet was unlocked. In the Soiled Utility closet there was one (1) gallon container of Pinesol and one (1) gallon of Lysol mixtures on a shelf. The unlocked door allowed any wandering resident access to this closet with the potential to ingest these hazardous chemicals. During an interview with Employee #80, licensed practical nurse (LPN) on 10/16/17 at 10:52 a.m., verified the Soiled Utility closet was always unlocked, she did agree these chemicals should not be stored in an unlocked area accessible to wandering residents. b) Clean Utility Room A random observation on 10/17/17 at 8:00 a.m. discovered an unlocked room with a plaque on the door stating, clean utility with no lock on the door or door knob. The room contained various supplies which included a drawer containing numerous packets of INZO Barrier Cream with 5% dimethicone (uses include: temporarily protects - and helps relieve chapped or cracked skin - minor cuts), written on the packets was Warning which stated (typed as written): Keep this and all drugs out of reach of children for external use only. Avoid contact with eyes. When accompanied by Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) #22 to the clean utility room on 10/17/17 at 8:05 a.m., she verified and agreed the door is unlocked with no means of locking the room. She stated, The door has never been locked, commenting the room contains clean supplies which include as Foley catheter insertion kits, dressing supplies, isolation gowns, isolation masks and syringes. Upon opening the cabinet drawer LPN #22 explained, This drawer is full of barrier cream for residents. After reading the Warning on the package label, she stated, We do have wandering residents and this could pose an accident hazard if they got a hold of these packages. I will talk to the Director of Nursing (DON) about this. At 8:20 a.m. on 10/17/17 the DON reported, I will have a lock put on the door (clean utility room). Agree it could potentially be a accident hazard to wandering residents.

This was found in one (1) of one (1) medication storage room. This practice has the potential to affect more than an isolated number. Resident census: 55. Findings include: a) An observation of the metal cabinet in the medication storage room on 10/17/15 at 2:20 p.m., with Registered Nurse (RN) #79, revealed an unsecured clear white plastic box sealed with a zip tie and labeled: Attention All Nurses DEA (Drug Enforcement Administration) STOP Controlled Substance.

BARBARA'S MEMORIAL NURSING HOME,515012,PO BOX 9066,FAIRMONT,WV,26555,2017-10-18,441,E,0,1,XKNG11,"Based on observation, policy review and staff interview, the facility failed to maintain an effective infection control program to prevent, recognize, and control, to the extent possible, the onset and spread of infection within the facility. Breaches in infection control practices were observed during medication administration for Resident #7 and Resident #18 and during a random observation of the clean utility room involving a soiled laundry chute. This practice has the potential to affect more than an isolated number of residents residing in the facility. Resident identifiers: #7 and #18. Facility census: 55. Findings include: a) Resident #7 After a medication administration pass observation for Resident #7 on 10/17/17 at 8:04 a.m. Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) #80 performed hand hygiene with soap and water for fourteen (14) seconds then proceeded to turn off the faucet with the same paper towel used to dry her hands. b) Resident #18 After a medication administration pass observation for Resident #18 on 10/17/17 at 8:17 a.m. LPN #80 performed hand hygiene with soap and water for seventeen (17) seconds then proceeded to turn off the faucet with the same paper towel used to dry her hands. Immediately following the observations LPN #80 stated, I thought I washed my hands for 20 seconds but maybe I did it too quickly. She agreed and verified that the same paper towel used to dry her hands was used to turn off the water faucet. Reported I didn't know I was supposed to get a clean dry paper towel but it makes sense that it would be wet and cause contamination from the faucet. Our hand-washing policy is to wash our hands for twenty (20) seconds). Review of the facility hand-washing policy provided by the Director of Nursing (DON) on 10/17/17 at 8:55 a.m. with titles from Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) and World Health Organization (WHO) with a date of 2009 stated the following (typed as written): .Rub hands and forearms briskly for 20 seconds . The (YEAR) hand hygiene recommendations from the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) include: Recommended techniques for washing hands with soap and water include wetting hands first with clean, running warm water, applying the amount of product recommended by the manufacturer to hands, and rubbing hands together vigorously for at least 20 seconds covering all surfaces of the hands and fingers; then rinsing hands with water and drying thoroughly with a disposable towel; and turning off the faucet on the hand sink with a dry disposable paper towel. The DON reported on 10/17/17 at 9:00 a.m., I have never heard of turning off the faucet with a clean paper towel and we follow the CMS rules. I told my nurse to wash her hands for twenty-five (25) seconds just to be safe. Maybe she counted too fast or was nervous because she was being watched. c) Clean Utility Room with laundry chute A random observation on 10/17/17 at 8:00 a.m. discovered an unlocked room with a plaque on the door stating, clean utility with a soiled laundry chute (A vertical shaft in a building down which dirty clothes and linens can be dropped, to land in a laundry area on a lower floor) located inside the room on the right wall. The stainless steel door to the laundry chute was ajar and not latched with the barrel bolt lock located on the lower part of the door and frame. The door and door frame was soiled and a build up of grime on the inside of the door including the chute itself. Accompanied by LPN #22 to the clean utility room on 10/17/17 at 8:05 a.m., she commented, the room contains clean supplies which include as Foley catheter insertion kits, dressing supplies, isolation gowns, isolation masks, syringes etc. She verified the laundry chute door was ajar and not latched as it is always supposed to be. During the interview a random employee opened the door, pulling a cart containing soiled laundry/linen to the door and place the cloth bags of linen down the laundry chute. Upon inquiry regarding soiled linen being transported into a clean utility room with clean supplies which included a box of isolation masks with the top open, LPN #22 explained this is the way we have always done it and guess it could be an infection control issue. During an observation accompanied by the DON on 10/17/17 at 8:25 a.m., she agreed and verified the laundry chute Door and door frame were soiled. She stated, Certainly needs cleaned and I think housekeeping is responsible for cleaning it. The DON agreed and commented, With the laundry chute used for soiled linen certainly poses an infection control issue with dirty items being brought into a clean area. The door to the chute is always supposed to be shut and locked. Employee #17 verified on 10/17/17 at 10:50 a.m. that the laundry chute door in the clean utility room was again ajar and not latched shut. She stated, They just bring in the bags and put them down the laundry chute. I guess with the door open and not locked that air from the chute could certainly circulate in this room causing an infection control issue. On 10/17/17 at 11:16 a.m. discovered the end of laundry chute is housed downstairs in housekeeping supply room. Employee #15 demonstrated that a cart is brought over to the chute, soiled laundry is removed and transported across the hallway to the soiled laundry room. She commented, The laundry stays in the chute for a while until someone from laundry comes and gets it. I am not sure who is supposed to clean it (laundry chute). Employee #8 requested to view the clean utility room on 10/18/17 at 8:15 a.m. Upon entering the clean utility room the door to the laundry chute was again found to be ajar and unlatched. She verified this observation and stated, It should always be completely shut and securely latched. No one was sure who was supposed to clean the laundry chute and the door but now it is on a cleaning schedule to be done by housekeeping. Agree it is an infection control issue and we are looking at ways to correct it.",2020-09-01

According to this assessment, the resident required extensive assistance for personal hygiene, and required physical help in part of the bathing activity. Review of the shower records, on 04/18/17 at 9:56 a.m., found this resident was scheduled for two (2) showers per week, on Tuesdays and Fridays. Further review found that of the past six (6) weeks, were two (2) weeks where he received only one (1) shower per week. There was no evidence found that he had refused showers, or that he was out of the facility those weeks. The week of 03/12/17 through 03/18/17, he received only one (1) shower, on 03/17/17. The week of 03/26/17 through 04/01/17, he received only one (1) shower, on 03/31/17. An interview was conducted with licensed practical nurse (LPN) #40, on 04/18/17 at 10:12 a.m. She said she was unaware this resident wanted three (3) showers per week. She said if a resident requested changes in his shower schedule, she tells the assistant director of nursing (ADON) #76, who would then make changes in the shower schedule. An interview was then conducted with nurse #76 on 04/18/17 at 10:29 a.m. She said when residents first come to the facility, they are asked how often they want to receive showers. She said after they have been here awhile, sometimes they might make changes. Upon inquiry as to whether two (2) showers per week were this resident's preference, she replied in the affirmative. She said she was not aware of this resident having asked anyone for three showers per week. She asked him at this time, and he replied that he would like three (3) showers per week.

For Resident #38, the care plan was not implemented for fall prevention. Resident #48's, the care plan was not implemented for care of a [MEDICAL TREATMENT] resident. Resident identifiers: #38 and #48. Facility census: 97. Findings included: a) Resident #38 Review of the resident's current care plan found the following problem: --Resident has a history of falls. Poor balance, unsteady gait. The goal associated with the problem: --Resident will not receive any injuries from falls through next review. Interventions included: --Break away lap buddy while in wheelchair. Observation of the resident at 11:44 AM on 04/01/19, found the Resident was trying to remove her break away lap buddy. ( A lap buddy is an inflatable pillow that fits into the frame of the wheelchair and is meant to gently remind the occupant to ask for help before getting up.) She was pulling and tugging at the edges of the lap buddy. The Resident tried numerous times to stand up in her wheelchair, causing her chair alarm to engage. At one point the lap buddy released, and the resident began to stand up. A nursing assistant intervened and calmed the resident before fastening the lap buddy back into place. Review of the resident's medical record found a physician's orders [REDACTED]. At approximately 12:15 PM on 04/01/19, the breakaway lap buddy was removed from the wheelchair during meal time.

At 2:26 PM on 04/01/19, the resident continued to be in the dining room area, in her wheelchair without her break away lap buddy. Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) #15 was asked why the resident did not have her lap buddy. LPN #15 said the resident was actually better without the lap buddy. She seems more calmer without it, so we take it off sometimes. Observation found the resident was calm. She was setting in her wheelchair and was not trying to stand up. The alarm in the wheelchair was not sounding. At 1:10 on 04/02/19, the above observations were discussed with the administrator. The administrator said she would have the physician write a new order so the resident would not have to have the lap buddy in place at all times as indicated by the care plan and the current physician's orders [REDACTED].>On 04/02/19 a new order was written for: Break away lap buddy while in wheelchair, as needed. b) Resident #48 During a review of physician order [REDACTED]. --No blood pressures (BP) or blood draws on right arm due to fistula in the right arm for [MEDICAL TREATMENT] access. --Care plan also directs no BP or blood draws on right arm due to fistula for [MEDICAL TREATMENT] access.

Resident's #38 and #84's care plans were not revised to reflect the current activity interests. Resident #21's care plan was not revised to reflect a change in the use of the call light. Resident #17's care plan was not revised to reflect removal of a Peripherally Inserted Central Catheter (PICC) Line. Resident identifiers: #38, #84, #21, and #17. Facility census: 97. Findings included: a) Resident #38 Resident #38 resides on the Reflections Unit of the facility. To enter or exit the unit a code is required to be entered on a key pad. The unit is not a certified dementia unit but can house up to 20 residents at a time. The residents on this unit have cognitive loss. Resident #38 scored a 3 on her brief interview for mental status (BIMS). A score of 3 indicates the resident is severely cognitively impaired. Review of the resident's current plan of care found the resident was care planned for the following focus problem: --Resident has no interest in out of room activities. She at times prefers her own room, in her bed sleeping. The goal associated with the problem is: --Resident will attend 1 out of room activity per week through next review. Interventions included: --Provide in room activity supplies as needed. --Resident enjoys taking care of baby doll on occasion. --Resident has stated that in the past she enjoyed playing board games/cards with her children, doing crafts/sewing, gardening/canning, helping others, reading, shopping. --Resident has stated that she enjoys watching TV/news and weather, listening to country music/radio, playing the harmonica, singing, being outdoors weather permitting, talking to others, church, being active.

Observation on 04/02/19 the resident was again in the hallways or the dining area at 10:18 AM and 12:20 PM. On 04/02/19 at 2:20 PM, the resident's nursing assistants, NA #148 and NA #130 said the resident isn't in her room unless she is sleeping at night time. Both said the resident has a short attention span and has difficulty staying focus. NA #148 said the resident likes music and likes to yodel. She likes her doll baby, she likes food. We have sensory stimulation activities, but she will look at them for a short period and then she is done. She likes to be pushed around in her wheelchair, but she tires of that also. She likes attention but needs a constant change in activities. Both NA's said the resident likes to sleep in until around 9:00 AM, and then she is up for the day. Neither staff member felt the resident preferred to stay in her own room. Both employees knew the resident was a fall risk and needed constant supervision. Both employees felt she would not be safe if left alone in her room where supervision would be more difficult. On 04/02/19 at 2:30 PM, the activity assistant (AA) #121, assigned to the Reflections Unit, was unaware the resident has no interest in out of room activities. AA #21 could provide no evidence the resident was provided activities in her own room. AA said the resident was out of her room daily, in a common area, the lounge, hallway, or the dining room. On 04/02/19 at 3:20 PM, the activity director (AD) #55, was asked to make observations of Resident #38 on the Reflections unit. The resident was up in the dining area. AD was unable to provide evidence the resident has no interest in out of room activities. The AD provided copies of the residents attendance at activities: --On 04/01/19 the resident attended a pre meal activity and current events. --Review of the activity's participation log found similar attendance at activities through the month of (MONTH) 2019. --The resident was not provided any in-room activities.

On 12/04/18 at 3:07 PM, the facility's Director of Nursing (DoN) acknowledged that Resident #25's medications had been given late numerous times over the three (3) months preceding the survey. She stated that there was a second facility medication administration policy that allowed staff to administer medications up to two (2) hours before or after their ordered administration time instead of only one (1) hour. However, many of the medications were given outside of this extended time window and the DoN acknowledged this. She said the reason so many medications were given late was that the facility had hired some new Licensed Practical Nurses (LPNs) who had just finished school. She said the facility was aware of the problem and was trying to address it by changing medication administration times. She added that when a medication was given late, it was not documented in the medical record. A copy of the second medication administration policy was requested at that time. On 12/04/18 at 3:26 PM, the DoN provided the second policy stating that medication could be administered two (2) hours before or after the ordered time. However, she stated that this was a hospital policy instead of a policy for the Extended Care Facility (ECF) distinct part. The policy, titled Medication: Standard Hours for Drug Distribution, was last reviewed on 08/23/16 and stated, Non-critical times PO (by mouth) medications may be given 2 hours before or 2 hours after their scheduled time.

This deficient practice was found for two (2) of four (4) residents reviewed for the care area of nutrition. Resident identifiers: #36, #23. Facility census: 72. Findings included: a) Resident #36 During the screening portion of the Long-Term Care Survey Process (LTCSP) on 07/08/19, Resident #36 appeared thin. On 07/10/19, a copy of Resident #36's weights for the past year as well as all documentation regarding Resident #36 from the facility's Registered Dietitian (RD) for the past year was requested from the facility's Director of Nursing (DoN). Additionally, a copy of the facility's weight management policy along with Resident #36's orders was requested. Per documentation provided by the facility, Resident #36's weights for the past year were as follows: 07/08/19 - 84.4 pounds 07/05/19 - 84.0 pounds 07/03/19 - 83.4 pounds 06/19/19 - 90.9 pounds 06/04/19 - 92.4 pounds 05/30/19 - 90.1 pounds 05/21/19 - 89.2 pounds 05/14/19 - 87.3 pounds 05/07/19 - 87.4 pounds 04/03/19 - 93.2 pounds 03/04/19 - 95.6 pounds 02/19/19 - 96.1 pounds 01/16/19 - 96.4 pounds 12/04/18 - 97.0 pounds 11/14/18 - 97.3 pounds 11/06/18 - 97.4 pounds 10/09/18 - 98.0 pounds 09/10/18 - 98.6 pounds 08/02/18 - 97.4 pounds According to the documents provided by the facility, Resident #36 had been assessed by the RD two (2) times in the past year. A full Nutrition RD Assessment had been completed on 12/05/18 and a Nutrition Note had been completed on 05/14/19. A review of Resident #36's weight records revealed that Resident #36 had experienced a gradual and progressive weight loss trend since 09/10/18 which was not identified by the RD until eight (8) months later on 05/14/19. Per the weight records, Resident #36 had a slight weight gain for a few weeks after 05/14/19, after which point Resident #36's weight plummeted again, continuing the months-long progressive weight loss trend. During the survey, a review of the facility's Weight Management policy, last revised (MONTH) (YEAR), found that Weekly At Risk Review Meetings will be conducted on each resident with weight loss until the IDT (Interdisciplinary Team) determines weight has stabilized and can discontinue from weekly review. The policy also stated that residents with insidious weight loss would be identified using a Weights & Vitals Exception Report that would be reviewed at the morning meeting either the day of or the day before the Weight At Risk Review Meeting. Per the policy, Insidious weight loss refers to a gradual, unintended, progressive weight loss over time. On 07/10/19 at 3:04 PM, the above information was discussed with the facility's Certified Dietary Manager (CDM), RD, Administrator, DoN, and Corporate Registered Nurse (RN) #83. These individuals stated that each resident with weight loss was discussed in a weekly IDT meeting held on each Wednesday. They added that the meeting had been cancelled last week, but that Resident #36's weight loss had been addressed in a binder that was not part of the medical record. When the above individuals were asked why the information in this binder was not added to the medical record for Resident #36, the DoN stated that just because the information was not present in the format that this surveyor was looking for, that didn't mean the weight loss was not addressed. The DoN then stated that a decision had been made as of 07/05/19 to stop using the binder as the sole source of information regarding weekly weight reviews and start putting the information regarding weekly weight meetings in the medical record. The RD repeatedly stated, I'm only here on Wednesdays, and added that she would address the weight loss that day (07/10/19). A copy of the information from the aforementioned binder regarding Resident #36's weight loss was requested from the facility's Administrator on 07/10/19 at 3:20 PM. At that time, the Administrator stated in direct contradiction of the staff's statements above that there was no information regarding Resident #36's weight loss in the binder, but that the weight loss would have been discussed that day (07/10/19) had surveyors not been in the building. At that time, a Performance Improvement Plan (PIP) regarding weight monitoring was voluntarily provided for review by the Administrator. The PIP indicated that a problem had been discovered with weights in (MONTH) 2019, four (4) months prior to the survey and during Resident #36's progressive weight loss trend. The PIP stated that, as a monitoring procedure, the DoN or designee would review all weight alerts in the electronic medical record daily during morning clinical meeting to identify residents with weight changes. On 07/10/19 at 3:45 PM, the facility's RD and CDM provided a new nutrition note completed that day (07/10/19) for review, along with a typed schedule indicating that Resident #36's weight was scheduled to be discussed with the IDT on 07/10/19. In the Nutrition Note, the RD acknowledged that Resident #36 had a BMI (body mass index) indicating underweight status, a weight loss trend, and a significant weight loss of 8.7 percent over the past 30 days. The RD documented that Resident #36 had poor to fair meal intakes and overall good acceptance of a supplement with occasional poor acceptance. The RD did not calculate Resident #36's estimated nutrient needs in the note, nor did the RD address whether Resident #36 was meeting their nutritional needs. The RD recommended to continue the current nutritional plan of care with no changes and recommended that Resident #36 begin taking [MEDICATION NAME] (an antidepressant medication) to stimulate appetite. On 07/10/19 at 4:05 PM, the facility's DoN and Corporate RN #83 stated that a weekly weight meeting had been held on 07/05/19, after they had previously stated that the meeting for that week had been cancelled. They added that not all the notes from the meeting on 07/05/19 had been entered in the medical records of the residents discussed. No further information was provided prior to the survey exit conference. b) Resident #23 During a review of medical records it was revealed that Resident #23 was diagnosed with [REDACTED].

Also, the printed-out meal tickets state on the bottom double portions. On 07/10/19 at 12:28 PM, Certified Dietary Manager (CDM), was asked to observe the portion size on the plate belonging to Resident #23. He was asked if he should have received two scoops of everything? He stated, yes, unless they used a larger scoop. We went back to the serving area and there was not a larger scoop being used. On 07/10/19 at 12:30 PM, Cook #71 was asked if he served Resident #23 double portions on his tray today for lunch? He stated, that he gave him double protein. When he was asked if he gave double scoops of the meal, he stated that gave the large scoop and when he was asked to show what size scoop he used, he then stated, that he put two (2) scoops of everything on his plate. KM # was asked if he saw two (2) scoops of anything on the plate he did not answer. On 07/10/19 at 1:06 PM, RD stated, that Resident # 23 is supposed to get two scoops using a regular size scoop not the large scoop. She said, that will re-educate the CDM and Cook #71 She was asked about the weight loss trending down and she replied that Resident #23 is such a good eater she feels like if he got double portions his weight would be more stable. She went on to say that if he was getting double portions his weight should have been stabilized. On 07/10/19 at 4:00 PM, RD entered the room to present a noted that she stated she had written earlier this morning at 12:48 PM, and that Resident #23 had had a Four (4) pound weight increase. Weight was stable between 143-147 for seven (7) days, Weights were decreased to monthly due to weight range stable for four weeks from 05/21/19 to 06/10/19. Diet is meeting estimated needs on regular portions-but double portions ordered do to excellent intake and continues to trigger for weight loss. During this time, it was pointed out to the RD that the note she is now saying she wrote this morning was actually created on 07/10/19 at 2:30 PM, and she was asked if she still thought a double portion size meal were in the best interest of the resident? She stated, that he probably did not need them. She was asked if she remembered that at 1:00 PM, today she stated, that she feels like if Resident #23 was getting his double portions his weight would stabilize? She did not answer. On 07/10/19 at 4:05 PM, the facility's DoN and Corporate RN #83 stated that a weekly weight meeting had been held on 07/05/19, after they had previously stated that the meeting for that week had been cancelled due to a holiday. They added that not all of the notes from the meeting on 07/05/19 had been entered in the medical records of the residents discussed. However, he was on the list to be discussed today. Corporate RN #83 proceeded to show his name on the list, but he was not listed. DoN agreed that the notebook that she had with her was not a part of the medical record.

Four (4) multi-dose medications located in medication carts were not dated when the medication was first accessed or opened. These were random opportunities for discovery made during the medication storage and labeling facility task. Resident identifiers: #59, #29, #65. Facility census: 72. Findings included: a) Resident #59 On [DATE] at 9:10 AM, inspection of the 'long hall' medication cart was performed. One (1) of 12 insulin pens in this medication cart did not have a date to indicate when the medication was first opened. This insulin pen was Humalog insulin for Resident #59. The label on the insulin pen indicated the medication was delivered from the pharmacy to the facility on [DATE]. Labeling multi-dose medications when first opened or accessed is important to determine the expiration date of the medication. Insulin pens have an expiration date determined by when the pen was used for the first time. Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) #44 confirmed the Humalog insulin pen for Resident #59 was not dated when first opened or accessed. During an interview on [DATE] at 10:30 AM, the Director of Nursing stated facility policy was to date insulin pens when opened. However, she stated Resident #59's insulin pen could not be outdated or expired because it had been delivered from the pharmacy on [DATE]. The facility's policy entitled, Medication Administration-Preparation and General Guidelines - Vials and [MEDICATION NAME] of Injectable Medications stated, The date opened and the initials of the first person to use the vial are recorded on multidose vials. On [DATE] at 3:18 PM, the Administrator was informed of the above-described findings. No further information was provided through the completion of the survey. b) Resident #29 During an observation on [DATE] at 9:21 AM, of the medication cart being used by Registered Nurse (RN) #47, revealed that, the one (1) of the three (3) vials of a multi-use insulin (a medication used to control glucose levels for people who have diabetes) did not have a date on the vial to indicate when this medication was initially opened. [MEDICATION NAME] (name of the insulin) belonged to Resident # 29. It is a professional standard to label the vial with the date it was initially accessed, because after initial access the medication has the potential to loss potency and the effectiveness to treat the glucose levels for diabetic patients. Also a multi-use nasal spray ([MEDICATION NAME]) belonging to Resident #29 did not have a date on the bottle to indicate when it was initially opened. This was true for two (2) of two (2) nasal sprays in this medication cart. c) Resident #65 During an observation on [DATE] at 9:21 AM, of the medication cart being used by Registered Nurse (RN) #47, revealed that two (2) of two (2) nasal sprays [MEDICATION NAME] did not have a date on the bottle to indicate when this medication was initially used. This medication belonged to Resident #65. On [DATE] at 9:26 AM, Registered Nurse #47 was witness and verified there was not a date on the medication bottles to indicate the initial date it was used. During an interview on [DATE] at 11:39 AM, Director of Nursing was informed of findings. She had no comment. No further information was provided prior to the survey exit conference.",2020-09-01

This was true for two (2) of 17 records reviewed during the long term care survey. Resident identifiers: #222 and #12. Facility census: 72. Findings included: a) Resident #222 A review of Resident #222's medical record at 9:00 a.m. on 07/09/19 found an Admission Data Collection assessment dated [DATE]. A review of this assessment found the following under section B. Oral Health/Dentition 1. Condition of Teeth/oral Cavity both [NAME] Natural Teeth Intact B. Edentulous were marked as being true for Resident #222. Edentulous is defined in the Resident Assessment Instrument manual as meaning no natural teeth. A review of Webster's dictionary found the word Edentulous means toothless.

The responsible party for Resident #89 was not notified of a change in enteral feeding or of a change in condition that required being sent to an acute care hospital. Inconsistencies in the designation of the responsible party on the face sheets of the medical records were identified which had the potential to affect more than a limited number of residents. Resident identifiers: 89. Facility census: 86. Findings included: a) The initial review of medical records found there were some charts in which residents, who had been determined by a physician to lack the capacity to make informed medical decisions, and had another person designated as their responsible party for medical decisions had the designation Responsible Party listed beside the resident's name instead of the legally appointed decision maker's name. b) Facility Social Worker #89 was interviewed on 8/14/18 at 8:00 AM. She was asked about the face sheets listing some residents as responsible party, even though they may not have capacity and have a Medical Power of Attorney, Health care Surrogate, or Guardian in place making their medical decisions. She said the term as used by the corporation owning the facility refers to financial responsibility rather than health care decision making responsibility. She said in the electronic health record (EHR), you have to check the other persons listed to see if they have a specific designation of Health Care Surrogate, Medical Power of Attorney, or Guardian. If they do not, or if they say only Emergency Contact, then the resident is the decision maker. On the paper chart, you could look at the determination of capacity under the advance directives tab. The determinations of capacity are not included in the EHR. She said the current system made it kind of muddy for staff to identify the appropriate contact. c) Nurse #45 was interviewed on 8/14/18 at 9:35 AM. They were asked how a Nurse who was not familiar with the residents would quickly obtain the identity of the person legally responsible in case a decision needed to be made regarding care and treatment or to report an incident, injury, or allegation of abuse/neglect. They said they would refer to the face sheet. They were asked to pick a resident and show how that would be done. They selected Resident #15. His face sheet listed his sister-in-law on the top line of the Contacts list, with the designation Emergency Contact 1. It listed his niece on the second line of the Contacts list with the designation Emergency Contact 2. It listed Resident #15 on the third line with the designation Responsible Party. They said if it says Responsible Party, he makes his own decisions if there are no entries or just Emergency Contact beside the other names. If he were not responsible, there would be something else by the others' names such as Health care Surrogate or MPO[NAME] d) Nurse #43 was interviewed on 8/14/18 at 9:48 AM. They were asked how a Nurse who was not familiar with the residents would quickly obtain the identity of the person legally responsible in case a decision needed to be made regarding care and treatment or to report an incident, injury, or allegation of abuse/neglect. They said they would refer to the face sheet. A face sheet was located and they said Whoever is on top is the responsible party. They said the written designation Responsible Party on the Face Sheet only means they are responsible for the bill. They said Whoever is on the top is always the responsible person. e) Resident #88 was [AGE] years of age at the time of his discharge on 7/19/18. He was admitted on [DATE]. His face sheet listed his son on the top of the contacts list, with the designations Emergency Contact #1 and Surrogate Decision maker. It listed Resident #88 second with the designation Responsible Party His determination of capacity was completed on 7/16/18 with a determination he had the capacity to make his own medical decisions, so he was the responsible party for health care decisions. The responsible party for medical decisions was not listed at the top of the contacts list, as Nurse #43 had said would indicate the responsible party, and the son had the designation Surrogate Decision Maker beside his name, which Nurse #45 had said would indicate the responsible party. Review of the record did not find evidence that the inconsistencies in identifying the authorized responsible party had resulted in an identifiable failure to contact the actual responsible party for health care decisions when there was a change in the resident's condition or treatment. Resident #58 is [AGE] years of age. He was admitted to the facility on [DATE]. His face sheet listed his friend on the top of the contacts list, with the designations of Emergency Contact 1 and POA Dual. It listed Resident #58 second with the designation Responsible Party. His determination of capacity was completed on 12/15/14 with a determination he had the capacity to make informed medical decisions. The responsible party for medical decisions was not listed at the top of the contacts list, as Nurse #43 had said would indicate the responsible party, and the friend had the designation POA Dual beside his name, which Nurse #45 had said would indicate the responsible party. Review of the record did not find evidence that the inconsistencies in identifying the authorized responsible party had resulted in an identifiable failure to contact the actual responsible party for health care decisions when there was a change in the resident's condition or treatment. Resident #13 is [AGE] years of age. He was admitted to the facility on [DATE]. Investigation found he was determined by a physician to lack the capacity to make informed medical decisions. His face sheet listed him on the top of the contacts list, with the designation Responsible Party. Listed second was a person with no contact type listed. Under the Relationship field it listed Guardian. The responsible party for medical decisions was not listed at the top of the contacts list, as Nurse #43 had said would indicate the responsible party, but the person listed second had the designation Guardian beside his name, which Nurse #45 had said would indicate the responsible party. Review of the record did not find evidence that the inconsistencies in identifying the authorized responsible party had resulted in an identifiable failure to contact the actual responsible party for health care decisions when there was a change in the resident's condition or treatment. Resident #90 was [AGE] years of age at the time of her discharge home. She was initially admitted to the facility on [DATE]. She was determined by a physician to possess the capacity to make informed medical decisions on 2/25/18. Her face sheet listed the resident on the top line of the contacts list with the designation Responsible Party. It listed her son on the second line of the contacts list with the designation POA Healthcare. The responsible party for medical decisions was listed at the top of the contacts list, as Nurse #43 had said would indicate the responsible party, but the son listed second had the designation POA Healthcare beside his name, which Nurse #45 had said would indicate the responsible party. Review of the record did not find evidence that the inconsistencies in identifying the authorized responsible party had resulted in an identifiable failure to contact the actual responsible party for health care decisions when there was a change in the resident's condition or treatment. f) Resident #89 was [AGE] years of age at the time of his transfer to the hospital on [DATE]. He was admitted to the facility on [DATE]. He was determined to possess the capacity to make informed medical decisions by the acute care hospital prior to his admission to the facility, but was subsequently determined by a physician to lack capacity on 11/7/17. His face sheet listed his daughter on the top of the contacts list with the designation Emergency Contact 1 It listed his son on the second line of the contacts list with the designation Emergency Contact 2. It listed him on the third line of the contacts list with the designation Responsible Party. The actual responsible party for medical decisions, the daughter, who was the Medical Power of Attorney, was listed at the top of the contacts list, as Nurse #43 had said would indicate the responsible party, but the neither family member listed first and second had any designation other than Emergency Contact, beside their name, which Nurse #45 had said would indicate the resident was his own responsible party.

He was asked for any Policy, Procedure, or evidence of some other education provided to Licensed staff instructing them specifically where the identity of the person responsible for making medical decisions was located for quick reference. He provided a Policy entitled Changes in Resident Condition. It gave instruction for who was to be notified when changes in condition occur, including the resident's legal representative, but gave no direction how to determine who the legal representative was. There was no evidence of instruction or education to the Nurses on the matter provided. It was discussed that staff interviews had found differing interpretations on where the identity of the person responsible for health care decisions could consistently be determined, and that review of face sheets and capacity determinations had found there was no apparent consistency in how the face sheet was being completed for the contacts section. It was discussed that record review had found documentation of confusion by Nurses regarding contacting the appropriate decision maker. He said the concern had already been identified and will be a performance improvement item for the facility Quality Assurance Committee. i) The investigation found sufficient evidence to substantiate deficient practice by the facility for failing to ensure the authorized representative for health care decisions was consistently notified of changes in condition or treatment.",2020-09-01

An interview with Nurse Aide (NA) #50 at 1:00 PM on 10/10/18 revealed the nursing staff were supposed to turn/reposition Resident #5 every two (2) hours but sometimes they were not able to do this due to staffing issues. Observations of Resident #5 on 10/10/18 at 1:48 PM revealed Resident #5 was positioned with pressure off his left side. Continued observations between 1:48 PM and 6:00 PM revealed the resident in the same position with pressure off his left side. On 10/10/18 at 6:06 PM during an interview with Registered Nurse (RN) #34 the RN said she would fix that when she was told the resident had been on the right side with pressure off the left side for the multiple observations between 1:48 PM and 6:00 PM.

During a family interview on 10/14/18 at 6:00 PM Resident #5's family member said the resident had experienced a terrible pressure ulcer while at the facility. An interview with wound care RN #31 on 10/10/18 at 10:47 AM revealed Resident #5's wound was on the coccyx and had originated in (MONTH) (YEAR). The resident was on a wound VAC (vacuum assisted closure) for about eight (8) months. Documentation on pressure ulcer records revealed Resident #5 had a Stage IV pressure ulcer to the coccyx that had been surgically debrided by a local wound center. b) Resident #20 Review of records, on 10/10/18 at 10:15 AM, revealed some of Resident#20's [DIAGNOSES REDACTED]. Review of records revealed the resident had a vagal stimulator to be used during [MEDICAL CONDITION] activity. Vagal refers to the vagus nerve the longest nerve in the autonomic nervous system in the human body, which controls functions of the body that are not under voluntary control (such as heart rate and breathing). According to the [MEDICAL CONDITION] Foundation, Vagus nerve stimulation (VNS) prevents [MEDICAL CONDITION] by sending regular, mild pulses of electrical energy to the brain via the vagus nerve. It is sometimes referred to as a pacemaker for the brain. A stimulator device is implanted under the skin in the chest. A wire from the device is wound around the vagus nerve in the neck. If a person is aware of when a [MEDICAL CONDITION] happens, they can swipe a magnet over the generator in the left chest area to send an extra burst of stimulation to the brain. For some people this may help stop [MEDICAL CONDITION]. A magnet is used to activate or deactivate the device. Review of Resident#20's care plan, on 10/10/18 at 10:15 AM, revealed a focus area of impaired Neurological status related to [MEDICAL CONDITION] disorder. Interventions included Give medications as ordered. Observe/document for effectiveness and side effects. Keep vagal stimulator (used during [MEDICAL CONDITION] activity) handy at all times. Use vagal stimulator as ordered if resident has more than one [MEDICAL CONDITION] in a row. No shortwave diathermy. The same intervention related to [MEDICAL CONDITION] activity concerning the vagal stimulator is under the focus of risk for falls. The intervention, Keep vagal stimulator (used during [MEDICAL CONDITION] activity) handy at all times. Use vagal stimulator as ordered if resident has more than one [MEDICAL CONDITION] in a row. No short-wave Diathermy. Date Initiated: 06/15/17. Review of records for Resident#20, on 10/10/18 at 2:00 PM, revealed an order for [REDACTED]. Review of the medicine administration record (MAR) revealed no [MEDICATION NAME] was given in the month of (MONTH) or (MONTH) (YEAR). The MAR showed in the month of (MONTH) one (1) dose was given on 08/27/18, indicating [MEDICAL CONDITION] activity had occurred. No details concerning the [MEDICAL CONDITION] activity occurring on 08/27/18 was found in the record; no description on how long the [MEDICAL CONDITION] lasted, or if the vagal stimulator was used, or what interventions or precautions were used other than the ordered medication. On 10/10/18 at 2:40 PM, interview with Registered Nurse (RN#105) assigned to care for the resident on 10/10/18, revealed RN#105 was not aware the resident had a vagal stimulator or what a vagal stimulator even was. RN#105 said this was her first day at the facility, that she was from a sister facility and did not know the residents. This surveyor suggested that perhaps another nursing staff that regularly worked at the facility and who was familiar with the resident, show this surveyor and the assigned RN#105 responsible for the care of Resident#20, the resident's vagal stimulator and the appropriate way to use it. Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN#72) showed this surveyor and RN#105 the procedure to use the vagal stimulator if the resident had a [MEDICAL CONDITION]. LPN#72 felt the resident's upper left chest and showed RN#105 the outline of the implanted vagal stimulator, then LPN#72 showed RN#105 the magnet hanging on the back of the resident's wheel chair that is used to operate the vagal stimulator. LPN#72 said there was also a magnet on the cart. LPN#72 said, the resident has been at the facility for ten (10) years and if he is having a [MEDICAL CONDITION], you swipe the magnet over the implanted vagal stimulator one (1) time, and only one (1) time. RN#105 said she had never came across one of those (vagal stimulator) before in her nursing career (RN#105 said she had been a RN since (MONTH) (YEAR), but a LPN for several years). On 10/10/18 at 5:45 PM, review of orders revealed an order dated 03/30/17, If resident has [MEDICAL CONDITION] activity last greater than 3 minutes, then RN to swipe magnet once over VNS Generator. If needed, can repeat after 5 minutes. Avoid swiping magnet immediately after single swipe. Notify physician and RP (representative) of use. Another order dated 3/31/2017 revealed, Device: Keep vagal Stimulator (used during [MEDICAL CONDITION] activity) in plain sight and handy at all times. Use vagal stimulator if he has more than one [MEDICAL CONDITION] in a row by rubbing magnet on left upper chest. No short-wave diathermy, microwave diathermy, therapeutic ultrasound diathermy. Every shift for [MEDICAL CONDITION] On 10/10/18 at 3:37PM, interview with RN#44 Staff Development, revealed when asked for records on all training given to staff concerning a vagal stimulator. RN#44 said, We don't have anyone in the building with a vagal stimulator. RN#44 said she has not done any training on vagal stimulators since she has had the job since the last part of (MONTH) (YEAR). The Staff Development RN#44 said she would look at previous records, prior to her having the position, to see if there ever was any training given concerning [MEDICAL CONDITION] or vagal stimulators. Interview with RN#44 Staff Development, on 10/10/18 at 4:17 PM after RN#44's review of training back through (YEAR), revealed no training on [MEDICAL CONDITION] or vagal stimulators. When asked again if anyone in the facility had a vagal stimulator, RN#44 replied, No one. This surveyor informed RN#44 that Resident#20 had a vagal stimulator. RN#44 left the room and came back a little while later and said, she was the only one that was not aware the resident had a vagal stimulator, that she had spoken to staff and everyone else knew about it and how to use it. When RN#44 was asked what model vagal stimulator the resident had, and how long he had had it, she was unable to say, but said she would try to find out. At the time of exit the facility had not given this surveyor the information on the model of the vagal stimulator or how long Resident #20 had it. On 10/10/18 at 7:35 PM, interview with LPN#47, evening shift nurse assigned to the resident revealed the LPN was not aware Resident #20 had a vagal stimulator or what a vagal stimulator was. When asked what the nurse would do if the resident had a [MEDICAL CONDITION] LPN#47said she would give him his PRN (as needed) medicine for [MEDICAL CONDITION]. When asked what the care plan intervention meant by Keep vagal stimulator (used during [MEDICAL CONDITION] activity) handy at all times. The LPN did not know, and said she had never seen any device bedside, and was unable to describe what a vagal stimulator was. An interview with Resident Care Specialist, also known as a Nurse Aide (NA) NA#35, on 10/10/18 at 7:40 PM, revealed NA#35 considered the Resident#20 total care. NA#35 said the resident needed a lot of care and he did have [MEDICAL CONDITION]. Upon inspection of the resident's wheel chair with NA#35, this surveyor pointed to the magnet attached to the back of the wheel chair and asked NA#35 what it was. NA#35 replied it was a wheel chair alarm, that a lot of residents had them so that staff would know when they stood up out of their wheel chairs. c) Resident #2 admitted originally on 05/19/18 status [REDACTED]. Resident had capacity. resident had a history of [REDACTED]. Review of records, on 10/09/18 at 11:15 AM, revealed a quarterly minimum data set (MDS) with an assessment reference date (ARD) 8/22/18.

On 10/09/18 at 1:05 PM review of record revealed a late entry situation background assessment recommendation (SBAR) Change in Status dated 09/22/18 at 4:40 PM. Review of SBAR Summary revealed documented vitals signs (blood pressure, temperature, pulse, and respirations) were taken on 09/19/18. The oxygen saturation noted was taken 09/18/18. Nurses note stated, What I think is going on with the resident is: has received first Cemo for metastisis of CA ([MEDICAL CONDITIONS] that has spread) had recently fracture to left arm while being turned and upon assessment her left elbow was very warm to touch Temp (temperature) -99.1. Additional Nursing Notes as applicable: Rp (representative) in facility and stated to send her mother to (name of specific hospital) ER (emergency room ) because that is where [MEDICAL CONDITION] doctors are.

Review of the resident's care plan revealed the facility failed to develop a person-centered comprehensive care plan for Resident#20 to address the specialized needs and care related to the resident's vagal stimulator, which is to be used during [MEDICAL CONDITION] activity. The care plan is not resident specific to include a description of proper use of the vagal stimulator, any precautions, or any indication the device is implanted in the resident. Vagal refers to the vagus nerve the longest nerve in the autonomic nervous system in the human body, which controls functions of the body that are not under voluntary control (such as heart rate and breathing). According to the [MEDICAL CONDITION] Foundation, Vagus nerve stimulation (VNS ) prevents [MEDICAL CONDITION] by sending regular, mild pulses of electrical energy to the brain via the vagus nerve. It is sometimes referred to as a pacemaker for the brain. A stimulator device is implanted under the skin in the chest. A wire from the device is wound around the vagus nerve in the neck. If a person is aware of when a [MEDICAL CONDITION] happens, they can swipe a magnet over the generator in the left chest area to send an extra burst of stimulation to the brain. For some people this may help stop [MEDICAL CONDITION]. A magnet is used to activate or deactivate the device. Review of Resident#20's care plan, on 10/10/18 at 10:15 AM, revealed a focus area ' impaired Neurological status related to [MEDICAL CONDITION] disorder . Interventions included Give medications as ordered. Observe/document for effectiveness and side effects. Keep vagal stimulator (used during [MEDICAL CONDITION] activity) handy at all times. Use vagal stimulator as ordered if resident has more than one [MEDICAL CONDITION] in a row. No short wave diathermy. Observe labs and report any sub therapeutic or toxic results to MD. Obtain and observe lab/diagnostic work as ordered. Report results to MD and follow up as indicated. POST [MEDICAL CONDITION] TREATMENT: Turn on side with head back, hyper-extended to prevent aspiration, Keep airway open, After [MEDICAL CONDITION] take vital signs and neuro check, Observe for [MEDICAL CONDITION], headache, altered L[NAME] (level of consciousness), paralysis, weakness, pupillary changes. [MEDICAL CONDITION] D[NAME]UMENTATION: location of [MEDICAL CONDITION] activity, type of [MEDICAL CONDITION] activity (jerks, convulsive movements, trembling), duration, level of consciousness, any incontinence, sleeping or dazed post-ictal state, after [MEDICAL CONDITION] activity. [MEDICAL CONDITION] PRECAUTIONS: Do not leave resident alone during a [MEDICAL CONDITION]. Protect from injury. If resident is out of bed, help to the floor to prevent injury. Remove or loosen tight clothing. Don't attempt to restrain resident during a [MEDICAL CONDITION] as this could make the convulsions more severe. Protect from onlookers, draw curtain, etc. Another intervention related to [MEDICAL CONDITION] activity is under the focus of risk for falls. The intervention is, Keep vagal stimulator (used during [MEDICAL CONDITION] activity) handy at all times. Use vagal stimulator as ordered if resident has more than one [MEDICAL CONDITION] in a row.

RN#105 said this was her first day at the facility, that she was from a sister facility and did not know the residents. This surveyor suggested that perhaps another nursing staff that regularly worked at the facility and who was familiar with the resident, show this surveyor and the assigned RN#105 responsible for the care of Resident#20 the resident's vagal stimulator and the appropriate way to use it. Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN#72) showed this surveyor and RN#105 the procedure to use the vagal stimulator if the resident had a [MEDICAL CONDITION]. LPN#72 felt the resident's upper left chest and showed RN#105 the outline of the implanted vagal stimulator, then LPN#72 showed RN#105 the magnet hanging on the back of the resident's wheel chair that is used to operate the vagal stimulator. LPN#72 said there was also a magnet on the cart. LPN#72 said, the resident has been at the facility for ten (10) years and if he is having a [MEDICAL CONDITION], you swipe the magnet over the implanted vagal stimulator one (1) time, and only one (1) time. RN#105 said she had never came across one of those (vagal stimulator) before in her nursing career (RN#105 said she had been a RN since (MONTH) (YEAR), but a LPN for several years).

Every shift for [MEDICAL CONDITION] Interview with RN#29, on 10/16/18 at 9:53 AM, revealed RN#29 agreed Resident#20's care plan did not have person-specific interventions in the care plan concerning specific care and services to be implemented for the use of the resident's vagal stimulator, no indication the device is implanted, nor any description of the steps staff should follow for the use and operation of the vagal stimulator. There were no instruction in the care plan on the use of, required precautions, or locations of the magnets necessary for the operation of the vagal stimulator. RN#29 is responsible for completing resident's comprehensive assessments and developing and revising resident's care plans. RN#29 agreed the care plan should have been developed to include a focus area concerning the resident's implanted vagal stimulator with specific care and services to be implemented for the use of the resident's vagal stimulator and would immediately correct the care plan. There are different types or models of vagus nerve stimulation devices. The facility was unable to tell this surveyor what model the resident had. On 10/10/18 at 3:37PM, RN#44 Staff Development. When asked for all training to staff on vagal stimulator. RN #44 said we don't have anyone in the building with a vagal stimulator.

Vagal refers to the vagus nerve the longest nerve in the autonomic nervous system in the human body, which controls functions of the body that are not under voluntary control (such as heart rate and breathing). According to the [MEDICAL CONDITION] Foundation, Vagus nerve stimulation (VNS) prevents [MEDICAL CONDITION] by sending regular, mild pulses of electrical energy to the brain via the vagus nerve. It is sometimes referred to as a pacemaker for the brain. A stimulator device is implanted under the skin in the chest. A wire from the device is wound around the vagus nerve in the neck. If a person is aware of when a [MEDICAL CONDITION] happens, they can swipe a magnet over the generator in the left chest area to send an extra burst of stimulation to the brain. For some people this may help stop [MEDICAL CONDITION]. A magnet is used to activate or deactivate the device.

Further review of the medical record revealed Resident #3 had documentation of a [MEDICAL CONDITION] occurring on 08/17/18. There was no timed event for the duration of the [MEDICAL CONDITION]. The facility failed to provide [MEDICAL CONDITION] care that documented: location of [MEDICAL CONDITION] activity, type of [MEDICAL CONDITION] activity (jerks, convulsive movements, trembling), duration, level of consciousness, any incontinence, sleeping or dazed post-ictal state, after [MEDICAL CONDITION] activity as noted in Resident #3s care plan. Both [MEDICAL CONDITION] occurred during the time there was not a current prescription of the [MEDICATION NAME] gel available for the Resident and when the [MEDICATION NAME] Gel had not been available. The current physician's orders [REDACTED].) A review of the laboratory section of the medical record revealed no documented results for the [MEDICATION NAME] level ordered for (MONTH) (YEAR). An interview, on 10/15/18, at 2:30 PM with LPN #7, revealed no results were received and placed on the medical record. Upon further investigation, LPN #7 stated the lab had not been drawn according to the laboratory book. Additionally, the repeat Ammonia level ordered 08/20/18 was also not done. Review of the available labs, revealed Resident #3 had previously had higher levels than normal of [MEDICATION NAME]/[MEDICATION NAME] Acid at level 110 (normal range indicated 50-100 MCG/ML) {microgram/ milliliter} and Ammonia levels at level 40 (normal range indicated as 9.0-33.0 UMOL/L) {micromole per liter}. c) Resident #5 Notification of changes An interview, with Resident #5's Medical Power of Attorney (MPOA), on 10/14/18 at 6:00 PM, revealed Resident #5 had a (computed tompography (CT) scan. The MPOA said the facility did not inform him of the results from the CT scan. A progress note dated 07/30/18 stated, X-ray of right lower extremity reports [MEDICAL CONDITION] changes but could not rule out fracture of tibia. Discussed with FNP 'family nurse practicioner' and MPOA 'medical power of attorney.' New orders given for CT w/o (without) contrast of right lower extremity on 8/3/18 at (name of local hospital). MPOA (medical power of attorney) aware. A progress note dated 08/3/18 stated, Resident OOF 'out of facility' for CT scan via (name of ambulance company) per stretcher with 2 attendants. Further review of progress notes did not reveal any evidence indicating the MPOA was informed of the results of the CT. The CT scan report dated 08/03/18 did have hand written notes showing the family nurse practicioner was notified and that there was a new order for an orthopedic consult. However, there was no note to reflect the MPOA was notfieid of the CT results. On 10/15/18 at 11:38 AM Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) #72 and Scheduler #16 looked through the resident's thinned medical record and located the results of the CT. There was no evidence the facility had informed the MPOA of the results. LPN #72 and Scheduler #16 confirmed the facility had no evidence to support they had informed Resident #5's MPOA of the results from the CT. A review of the facility's survey history revealed a complaint survey completed on 08/17/18 resulted in a deficient practice at F580 (notification of changes). Turning and Repositioning A review of Resident #5's treatment sheet revealed an order to turn and reposition the resident every two (2) hours due to increased risk of skin breakdown. Care plan review revealed Resident #5 had been treated for [REDACTED]. The care plan reflected the resident was incontinent of bowel and bladder and moved around in bed by sliding. Review of the annual Minimum Data Set (MDS) assessment dated [DATE] reflected the resident was totally dependent for bed mobility. Multiple observations on 10/10/18 between (9:00 AM and 1:00 PM) revealed Resident #5 was positioned with pressure off his right side. An interview with Nurse Aide (NA) #50 at 1:00 PM on 10/10/18 revealed the nursing staff were supposed to turn/reposition Resident #5 every two (2) hours but sometimes they were not able to do this due to staffing issues. Observations of Resident #5 on 10/10/18 at 1:48 PM revealed Resident #5 was positioned with pressure off his left side. Continued observations between 1:48 PM and 6:00 PM revealed the resident in the same position with pressure off his left side. On 10/10/18 at 6:06 PM during an interview with Registered Nurse (RN) #34 the RN said she would fix that when she was told the resident had been on the right side with pressure off the left side for the multiple observations between 1:48 PM and 6:00 PM. A review of the treatment record for (MONTH) (YEAR) revealed an order dated 07/10/18. The order indicated the resident would be turned every (two) hours, every shift due to an increased risk of skin breakdown. On 10/02/18 there was no documenation showing the resident had been turned on 7:00 AM - 7:00 PM shift. On 10/03/18 there was no documentation showing the resident had been turned every two (2) hours on 7:00 PM -7:00 AM shift.

On 10/14/18 there was no documenation the resident had been turned during 7:00 AM-7:00 PM shift. The resident's care plan reflected a focus area related to the resident's pressure ulcer to the right and left coccyx. The care plan indicated the resident was at risk for further skin breakdown related to imobility, refusal to turn and reposition, incontineince of bowel and bladder. Staff interview and record review as well as observations did not reflect the resident's refusal to be turned/repositioned. During a family interview, on 10/14/18 at 6:00 PM, Resident #5's family member said the resident had experienced a terrible pressure ulcer while at the facility. An interview with wound care RN #31 on 10/10/18 at 10:47 AM revealed Resident #5's wound was on the coccyx and had originated in (MONTH) (YEAR). The resident was on a wound VAC (vacuum assisted closure) for about eight (8) months. d) Resident #20 Review of records, on 10/10/18 at 10:15 AM, revealed some of Resident#20's [DIAGNOSES REDACTED]. Review of records revealed the resident had a vagal stimulator to be used during [MEDICAL CONDITION] activity. Vagal refers to the vagus nerve the longest nerve in the autonomic nervous system in the human body, which controls functions of the body that are not under voluntary control (such as heart rate and breathing). According to the [MEDICAL CONDITION] Foundation, Vagus nerve stimulation (VNS) prevents [MEDICAL CONDITION] by sending regular, mild pulses of electrical energy to the brain via the vagus nerve. It is sometimes referred to as a pacemaker for the brain. A stimulator device is implanted under the skin in the chest. A wire from the device is wound around the vagus nerve in the neck. If a person is aware of when a [MEDICAL CONDITION] happens, they can swipe a magnet over the generator in the left chest area to send an extra burst of stimulation to the brain. For some people this may help stop [MEDICAL CONDITION]. A magnet is used to activate or deactivate the device. Review of Resident#20's care plan, on 10/10/18 at 10:15 AM, revealed a focus area of impaired Neurological status related to [MEDICAL CONDITION] disorder. Interventions included Give medications as ordered. Observe/document for effectiveness and side effects. Keep vagal stimulator (used during [MEDICAL CONDITION] activity) handy at all times. Use vagal stimulator as ordered if resident has more than one [MEDICAL CONDITION] in a row. No shortwave diathermy. The same intervention related to [MEDICAL CONDITION] activity concerning the vagal stimulator is under the focus of risk for falls. The intervention, Keep vagal stimulator (used during [MEDICAL CONDITION] activity) handy at all times. Use vagal stimulator as ordered if resident has more than one [MEDICAL CONDITION] in a row. No short-wave Diathermy. Date Initiated: 06/15/17. Review of records for Resident#20, on 10/10/18 at 2:00 PM, revealed an order for [REDACTED]. Review of the medicine administration record (MAR) revealed no [MEDICATION NAME] was given in the month of (MONTH) or (MONTH) (YEAR). The MAR showed in the month of (MONTH) one (1) dose was given on 08/27/18, indicating [MEDICAL CONDITION] activity had occurred. No details concerning the [MEDICAL CONDITION] activity occurring on 08/27/18 was found in the record; no description on how long the [MEDICAL CONDITION] lasted, or if the vagal stimulator was used, or what interventions or precautions were used other than the ordered medication. On 10/10/18 at 2:40 PM, interview with Registered Nurse (RN#105) assigned to care for the resident on 10/10/18, revealed RN#105 was not aware the resident had a vagal stimulator or what a vagal stimulator even was. RN#105 said this was her first day at the facility, that she was from a sister facility and did not know the residents. This surveyor suggested that perhaps another nursing staff that regularly worked at the facility and who was familiar with the resident, show this surveyor and the assigned RN#105 responsible for the care of Resident#20, the resident's vagal stimulator and the appropriate way to use it. Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN#72) showed this surveyor and RN#105 the procedure to use the vagal stimulator if the resident had a [MEDICAL CONDITION]. LPN#72 felt the resident's upper left chest and showed RN#105 the outline of the implanted vagal stimulator, then LPN#72 showed RN#105 the magnet hanging on the back of the resident's wheel chair that is used to operate the vagal stimulator. LPN#72 said there was also a magnet on the cart. LPN#72 said, the resident has been at the facility for ten (10) years and if he is having a [MEDICAL CONDITION], you swipe the magnet over the implanted vagal stimulator one (1) time, and only one (1) time. RN#105 said she had never came across one of those (vagal stimulator) before in her nursing career (RN#105 said she had been a RN since (MONTH) (YEAR), but a LPN for several years). On 10/10/18 at 5:45 PM, review of orders revealed an order dated 03/30/17, If resident has [MEDICAL CONDITION] activity last greater than 3 minutes, then RN to swipe magnet once over VNS Generator. If needed, can repeat after 5 minutes. Avoid swiping magnet immediately after single swipe. Notify physician and RP (representative) of use. Another order dated 3/31/2017 revealed, Device: Keep vagal Stimulator (used during [MEDICAL CONDITION] activity) in plain sight and handy at all times. Use vagal stimulator if he has more than one [MEDICAL CONDITION] in a row by rubbing magnet on left upper chest. No short-wave diathermy, microwave diathermy, therapeutic ultrasound diathermy. Every shift for [MEDICAL CONDITION] On 10/10/18 at 3:37PM, interview with RN#44 Staff Development, revealed when asked for records on all training given to staff concerning a vagal stimulator. RN#44 said, We don't have anyone in the building with a vagal stimulator. RN#44 said she has not done any training on vagal stimulators since she has had the job since the last part of (MONTH) (YEAR). The Staff Development RN#44 said she would look at previous records, prior to her having the position, to see if there ever was any training given concerning [MEDICAL CONDITION] or vagal stimulators. Interview with RN#44 Staff Development, on 10/10/18 at 4:17 PM after RN#44's review of training back through (YEAR), revealed no training on [MEDICAL CONDITION] or vagal stimulators. When asked again if anyone in the facility had a vagal stimulator, RN#44 replied, No one. This surveyor informed RN#44 that Resident#20 had a vagal stimulator. RN#44 left the room and came back a little while later and said, she was the only one that was not aware the resident had a vagal stimulator, that she had spoken to staff and everyone else knew about it and how to use it. When RN#44 was asked what model vagal stimulator the resident had, and how long he had had it, she was unable to say, but said she would try to find out. At the time of exit the facility had not given this surveyor the information on the model of the vagal stimulator or how long Resident #20 had it. On 10/10/18 at 7:35 PM, interview with LPN#47, evening shift nurse assigned to the resident revealed the LPN was not aware Resident #20 had a vagal stimulator or what a vagal stimulator was. When asked what the nurse would do if the resident had a [MEDICAL CONDITION] LPN#47said she would give him his PRN (as needed) medicine for [MEDICAL CONDITION]. When asked what the care plan intervention meant by Keep vagal stimulator (used during [MEDICAL CONDITION] activity) handy at all times. The LPN did not know, and said she had never seen any device bedside, and was unable to describe what a vagal stimulator was. An interview with Resident Care Specialist, also known as a Nurse Aide (NA) NA#35, on 10/10/18 at 7:40 PM, revealed NA#35 considered the Resident#20 total care. NA#35 said the resident needed a lot of care and he did have [MEDICAL CONDITION]. Upon inspection of the resident's wheel chair with NA#35, this surveyor pointed to the magnet attached to the back of the wheel chair and asked NA#35 what it was. NA#35 replied it was a wheel chair alarm, that a lot of residents had them so that staff would know when they stood up out of their wheel chairs. e) Resident #2 admitted originally on 05/19/18 status [REDACTED]. Resident had capacity. resident had a history of [REDACTED]. Review of records, on 10/09/18 at 11:15 AM, revealed a quarterly minimum data set (MDS) with an assessment reference date (ARD) 8/22/18.

The resident needed extensive assistance with activities of daily living (ADLs), except supervision with meals and is totally dependent for bathing. Pertinent [DIAGNOSES REDACTED]. On 10/09/18 at 1:05 PM review of record revealed a late entry situation background assessment recommendation (SBAR) Change in Status dated 09/22/18 at 4:40 PM. Review of SBAR Summary revealed documented vitals signs (blood pressure, temperature, pulse, and respirations) were taken on 09/19/18. The oxygen saturation noted was taken 09/18/18. Nurses note stated, What I think is going on with the resident is: has received first Cemo for metastisis of CA ([MEDICAL CONDITIONS] that has spread) had recently fracture to left arm while being turned and upon assessment her left elbow was very warm to touch Temp (temperature) -99.1. Additional Nursing Notes as applicable: Rp (representative) in facility and stated to send her mother to (name of specific hospital) ER (emergency room ) because that is where [MEDICAL CONDITION] doctors are. The hospital requested by family was not the nearest hospital to the facility. The family had to request resident be sent for evaluation. When reviewing the SBAR summary and SBAR no vital signs (VS) were recorded at the time the resident was having a change of condition, accept in a nurse's note a recorded temperature taken one time. The District Director of Clinical Services said the system pulls the last recorded VS into a note when no new VS are entered. Review of the SBAR dated the day Resident #2 was sent to the ED, 09/22/18, showed VS from 09/19/18, and oxygen saturation noted was taken 09/18/18. There were no recorded current VS reflecting the resident's actual status at the time of the change in condition. The instructions included on the SBAR were 1. Evaluate the resident, 2. Check vital signs, 3. Review record, 4. Review and interact care path or acute change in condition file card, and 5. Have relevant information available and reporting. The SBAR noted the situation is a change in condition noted as confusion with change in vials (written as typed) starting on 09/22/18. Stayed the same since change started with no change in symptoms. This condition, symptom, or sign has not occurred before. On the SBAR section 'Other relevant information', it was noted had family in from out of town all morning was laughing and taking pictures. Under section 'B' of the form under number three (3) instructions say (Be sure this is the most current set of vital signs that goes with your evaluation of the resident) The vital signs recorded on the form was actually taken on 09/19/18, the change in condition occurred on 09/22/18. The change in the resident's condition included increased confusion and slurred speech. The RN assessment revealed I think the problem may be has received first Cemo for metastisis (typed as written) of CA ([MEDICAL CONDITIONS] that has spread) had recently fracture to left arm while being turned and upon assessment her left elbow was very warm to touch Temp (temperature) -99.1. Nursing Notes for additional information on change of condition: Rp (representative) in facility and stated to send her mother to (name of specific hospital) ER (emergency room ) because that is where [MEDICAL CONDITION] doctors are. The physician was notified on 09/22/18 at 12:15 PM. Review of Hospital Emergency Department documentation dated 09/22/18, revealed at the time of the initial examination the resident was only alert to self, was hypotensive, and had elbow pain and swelling.

The Director of Legal Operations said the family was the ones that requested the resident be sent, and asked this surveyor if she had read the SBAR. This surveyor confirmed the SBAR dated 09/22/18 had been reviewed. The Director of Legal Operations said, The resident had been laughing earlier with the family, it was the family that requested the resident be sent. This surveyor said, Yes, the family did request the resident be sent, but don't you think nursing staff should have assessed and intervened without the family having to make the request, considering the condition the resident was in when she arrived at the hospital? No reply was made to the surveyor's question. After a pause, the Director of Legal Operations asked, Have you seen the hospital record? This surveyor replied, Yes, I have them.

A review of the medical record for Resident #3, noted on 09/29/2018, a [MEDICAL CONDITION] occurred at 3:15 AM which ended at approximately 3:34 AM. There was no evidence [MEDICATION NAME] Gel was administered to the resident in accordance with physician's orders [REDACTED]. A review of the medication administration record (MAR) and the controlled medication sign out book, on 10/10/2018, at 8:50 AM, revealed the [MEDICATION NAME] gel had not been signed as given on the MAR for 09/29/18, when the prolonged [MEDICAL CONDITION] for 19 minutes occurred nor had it been signed for in the controlled medication notebook. Interviews with two nursing staff, Licensed Practical Nure (LPN) #105 and LPN #55, at this time, verified the medication was not documented on the MAR and was not signed out. In addition, Resident #3 did not have a sign out sheet for staff to document doses taken out of the locked box when required to treat the resident.

To date, the facility had not sent the request for a current order and script to the pharmacy. On 10/10/18, at 2:35 PM, after consultation with the State Agency a determination of Immediate Jeopardy was identified. The facility failed to ensure that emergency medication was provided to a Resident #3 in accordance with physician's orders [REDACTED]. After the receipt of an acceptable plan of correction and implementation of the plan of correction (P[NAME]), the immediate jeopardy was abated on 10/10/18, at 8:44 PM. The facility implemented in services for direct care staff regarding [MEDICAL CONDITION] care. Resident #3's physician was notified and orders for Intramuscular (IM) [MEDICATION NAME] was obtained. IM [MEDICATION NAME] was available in the emergency cart. On 10/11/18, at 11:55AM, the Administrator Designee and RN #150 brought a prescription container of [MEDICATION NAME] gel to the surveyor. The Administrator Designee, stated that it was not where the Director of Nursing (DoN) had told her to look but after the DoN thought about it, she had us to break the lock to get it. The [MEDICATION NAME] gel produced by the Administrator Designee and RN#150 had an original date of 06/14/17 with a note to discard after 06/15/18. Both the Administrator Designee and RN #150 verified there was no current medication available in the facility to be used in case Resident #3 sustained a [MEDICAL CONDITION] greater than 5 minutes requiring medication to be administered. Further interviews, on 10/16/18, at 10:35 AM with Reigstered Nurse (RN)#110, verified meds are pulled based on discard date and RN#106 added only meds to be destroyed are in the nurse's office (DoN) and that was where the outdated [MEDICATION NAME] was found. Further review of the medical record revealed Resident #3 had documentation of a [MEDICAL CONDITION] occurring on 08/17/18. There was no timed event for the duration of the [MEDICAL CONDITION]. The facility failed to provide [MEDICAL CONDITION] care that documented: location of [MEDICAL CONDITION] activity, type of [MEDICAL CONDITION] activity (jerks, convulsive movements, trembling), duration, level of consciousness, any incontinence, sleeping or dazed post-ictal state, after [MEDICAL CONDITION] activity as noted in Resident #3's care plan. Both [MEDICAL CONDITION] occurred during the time there was not a current prescription of the [MEDICATION NAME] gel available for the Resident. The current physician's orders [REDACTED].) A review of the laboratory section of the medical record revealed no documented results for the [MEDICATION NAME] level ordered for (MONTH) (YEAR). An interview, on 10/15/18, at 2:30 PM with LPN #7, revealed no results were received and placed on the medical record. Upon further investigation, LPN #7 stated the lab had not been drawn according to the laboratory book. Additionally, the repeat Ammonia level ordered 08/20/18 was not done. Review of the available labs, revealed Resident #3 had previously had higher levels than normal of [MEDICATION NAME]/[MEDICATION NAME] Acid at level 110 (normal range indicated 50-100 MCG/ML) {microgram/ milliliter} and Ammonia levels at level 40 (normal range indicated as 9.0-33.0 UMOL/L) {micromole per liter}. On 10/16/18, at 6:20 PM, an interview with the Administrator and Social Service Director/Administrator Designee, revealed no knowledge on the deficient practice of the facility failing to provide timely and adequate medical care to Resident #3 who experienced [MEDICAL CONDITION]. The administrator stated, I have no history to provide information on that.

He stated staff did not listen to him when he had expressed this concern many times. A review of the medical record on 10/10/18 at 10:00 AM revealed Resident #7 was taking an antidepressant medications. One of the interventions listed was to monitor adverse reactions such as hallucinations that could be a side effect. Discussion with Administrator Designee (AD) #51 at 10:35 a.m on 10/10/18 revealed AD #51 was not aware of the resident having hallucinations and that he would be sccheduled to be seen by the physician on a visit next week. A review of a nursing summary report dated 10/01/18 did not show that halluciantions had been identified as a concern to monitor. Review of the care plan, on 10/10//18 and 10/11/18 at 9:30 AM, did not show that hallucination had been identifed as an actual problem which needed to be monitored and treated once it was noted as an adverse reaction. d) Resident #20 Review of records, on 10/10/18 at 10:15 AM, revealed some of Resident#20's [DIAGNOSES REDACTED]. Review of records revealed the resident had a vagal stimulator to be used during [MEDICAL CONDITION] activity. Vagal refers to the vagus nerve the longest nerve in the autonomic nervous system in the human body, which controls functions of the body that are not under voluntary control (such as heart rate and breathing). According to the [MEDICAL CONDITION] Foundation, Vagus nerve stimulation (VNS) prevents [MEDICAL CONDITION] by sending regular, mild pulses of electrical energy to the brain via the vagus nerve. It is sometimes referred to as a pacemaker for the brain. A stimulator device is implanted under the skin in the chest. A wire from the device is wound around the vagus nerve in the neck. If a person is aware of when a [MEDICAL CONDITION] happens, they can swipe a magnet over the generator in the left chest area to send an extra burst of stimulation to the brain. For some people this may help stop [MEDICAL CONDITION]. A magnet is used to activate or deactivate the device. Review of Resident#20's care plan, on 10/10/18 at 10:15 AM, revealed a focus area of impaired Neurological status related to [MEDICAL CONDITION] disorder. Interventions included Give medications as ordered. Observe/document for effectiveness and side effects. Keep vagal stimulator (used during [MEDICAL CONDITION] activity) handy at all times. Use vagal stimulator as ordered if resident has more than one [MEDICAL CONDITION] in a row. No shortwave diathermy. The same intervention related to [MEDICAL CONDITION] activity concerning the vagal stimulator is under the focus of risk for falls. The intervention, Keep vagal stimulator (used during [MEDICAL CONDITION] activity) handy at all times. Use vagal stimulator as ordered if resident has more than one [MEDICAL CONDITION] in a row. No short-wave Diathermy. Date Initiated: 06/15/17. Review of records for Resident#20, on 10/10/18 at 2:00 PM, revealed an order for [REDACTED]. Review of the medicine administration record (MAR) revealed no [MEDICATION NAME] was given in the month of (MONTH) or (MONTH) (YEAR). The MAR showed in the month of (MONTH) one (1) dose was given on 08/27/18, indicating [MEDICAL CONDITION] activity had occurred. No details concerning the [MEDICAL CONDITION] activity occurring on 08/27/18 was found in the record; no description on how long the [MEDICAL CONDITION] lasted, or if the vagal stimulator was used, or what interventions or precautions were used other than the ordered medication. On 10/10/18 at 2:40 PM, interview with Registered Nurse (RN#105) assigned to care for the resident on 10/10/18, revealed RN#105 was not aware the resident had a vagal stimulator or what a vagal stimulator even was. RN#105 said this was her first day at the facility, that she was from a sister facility and did not know the residents. This surveyor suggested that perhaps another nursing staff that regularly worked at the facility and who was familiar with the resident, show this surveyor and the assigned RN#105 responsible for the care of Resident#20, the resident's vagal stimulator and the appropriate way to use it. Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN#72) showed this surveyor and RN#105 the procedure to use the vagal stimulator if the resident had a [MEDICAL CONDITION]. LPN#72 felt the resident's upper left chest and showed RN#105 the outline of the implanted vagal stimulator, then LPN#72 showed RN#105 the magnet hanging on the back of the resident's wheel chair that is used to operate the vagal stimulator. LPN#72 said there was also a magnet on the cart. LPN#72 said, the resident has been at the facility for ten (10) years and if he is having a [MEDICAL CONDITION], you swipe the magnet over the implanted vagal stimulator one (1) time, and only one (1) time. RN#105 said she had never came across one of those (vagal stimulator) before in her nursing career (RN#105 said she had been a RN since (MONTH) (YEAR), but a LPN for several years). On 10/10/18 at 5:45 PM, review of orders revealed an order dated 03/30/17, If resident has [MEDICAL CONDITION] activity last greater than 3 minutes, then RN to swipe magnet once over VNS Generator. If needed, can repeat after 5 minutes. Avoid swiping magnet immediately after single swipe. Notify physician and RP (representative) of use. Another order dated 3/31/2017 revealed, Device: Keep vagal Stimulator (used during [MEDICAL CONDITION] activity) in plain sight and handy at all times. Use vagal stimulator if he has more than one [MEDICAL CONDITION] in a row by rubbing magnet on left upper chest. No short-wave diathermy, microwave diathermy, therapeutic ultrasound diathermy. Every shift for [MEDICAL CONDITION] On 10/10/18 at 3:37PM, interview with RN#44 Staff Development, revealed when asked for records on all training given to staff concerning a vagal stimulator. RN#44 said, We don't have anyone in the building with a vagal stimulator. RN#44 said she has not done any training on vagal stimulators since she has had the job since the last part of (MONTH) (YEAR). The Staff Development RN#44 said she would look at previous records, prior to her having the position, to see if there ever was any training given concerning [MEDICAL CONDITION] or vagal stimulators. Interview with RN#44 Staff Development, on 10/10/18 at 4:17 PM after RN#44's review of training back through (YEAR), revealed no training on [MEDICAL CONDITION] or vagal stimulators. When asked again if anyone in the facility had a vagal stimulator, RN#44 replied, No one. This surveyor informed RN#44 that Resident#20 had a vagal stimulator. RN#44 left the room and came back a little while later and said, she was the only one that was not aware the resident had a vagal stimulator, that she had spoken to staff and everyone else knew about it and how to use it. When RN#44 was asked what model vagal stimulator the resident had, and how long he had had it, she was unable to say, but said she would try to find out. At the time of exit the facility had not given this surveyor the information on the model of the vagal stimulator or how long Resident #20 had it. On 10/10/18 at 7:35 PM, interview with LPN#47, evening shift nurse assigned to the resident revealed the LPN was not aware Resident #20 had a vagal stimulator or what a vagal stimulator was. When asked what the nurse would do if the resident had a [MEDICAL CONDITION] LPN#47said she would give him his PRN (as needed) medicine for [MEDICAL CONDITION]. When asked what the care plan intervention meant by Keep vagal stimulator (used during [MEDICAL CONDITION] activity) handy at all times. The LPN did not know, and said she had never seen any device bedside, and was unable to describe what a vagal stimulator was. An interview with Resident Care Specialist, also known as a Nurse Aide (NA) NA#35, on 10/10/18 at 7:40 PM, revealed NA#35 considered the Resident#20 total care. NA#35 said the resident needed a lot of care and he did have [MEDICAL CONDITION]. Upon inspection of the resident's wheel chair with NA#35, this surveyor pointed to the magnet attached to the back of the wheel chair and asked NA#35 what it was. NA#35 replied it was a wheel chair alarm, that a lot of residents had them so that staff would know when they stood up out of their wheel chairs. e) Resident #2 admitted originally on 05/19/18 status [REDACTED]. Resident had capacity. resident had a history of [REDACTED]. Review of records, on 10/09/18 at 11:15 AM, revealed a quarterly minimum data set (MDS) with an assessment reference date (ARD) 8/22/18.

On 10/09/18 at 1:05 PM review of record revealed a late entry situation background assessment recommendation (SBAR) Change in Status dated 09/22/18 at 4:40 PM. Review of SBAR Summary revealed documented vitals signs (blood pressure, temperature, pulse, and respirations) were taken on 09/19/18. The oxygen saturation noted was taken 09/18/18. Nurses note stated, What I think is going on with the resident is: has received first Cemo for metastisis of CA ([MEDICAL CONDITIONS] that has spread) had recently fracture to left arm while being turned and upon assessment her left elbow was very warm to touch Temp (temperature) -99.1. Additional Nursing Notes as applicable: Rp (representative) in facility and stated to send her mother to (name of specific hospital) ER (emergency room ) because that is where [MEDICAL CONDITION] doctors are. The hospital requested by family was not the nearest hospital to the facility. The family had to request resident be sent for evaluation. When reviewing the SBAR summary and SBAR no vital signs (VS) were recorded at the time the resident was having a change of condition, accept in a nurse's note a recorded temperature taken one time. The District Director of Clinical Services said the system pulls the last recorded VS into a note when no new VS are entered. Review of the SBAR dated the day Resident #2 was sent to the ED, 09/22/18, showed VS from 09/19/18, and oxygen saturation noted was taken 09/18/18. There were no recorded current VS reflecting the resident's actual status at the time of the change in condition. The instructions included on the SBAR were 1. Evaluate the resident, 2. Check vital signs, 3. Review record, 4. Review and interact care path or acute change in condition file card, and 5. Have relevant information available and reporting.

The change in the resident's condition included increased confusion and slurred speech. The RN assessment revealed I think the problem may be has received first Cemo for metastisis (typed as written) of CA ([MEDICAL CONDITIONS] that has spread) had recently fracture to left arm while being turned and upon assessment her left elbow was very warm to touch Temp (temperature) -99.1. Nursing Notes for additional information on change of condition: Rp (representative) in facility and stated to send her mother to (name of specific hospital) ER (emergency room ) because that is where [MEDICAL CONDITION] doctors are.

The brief interview for mental status (BIMS) score was six (6), which indicated severe cognitive impairment for decision making. During medical record review, the quarterly minimum data set (MDS) with assessment reference date (ARD) 10/25/16, assessed that he had incidents of physical behaviors directed toward others which occurred one (1) to three (3) days in the look back period. In comparison, his admission MDS, with ARD 08/08/16, assessed that he had no behaviors directed toward others in that look back period. During an interview with MDS registered nurse #11 on 01/10/17 at 3:30 p.m., she said the nurse aides documented he had one (1) episode of sexual behaviors on 10/19/16, and one (1) instance of wandering a few days later. She corroborated the wandering behaviors with nursing progress notes. She did not know what type of sexual behavior he exhibited on 10/19/16. Review of the care plan at this time found he had a care plan focus and individualized interventions for wandering, but nothing related to sexual or other types of behaviors. MDS nurse #11 said they probably would not have care planned for only an isolated instance of sexual behaviors. Review of the medical record found numerous instances of behaviors recorded in nurse progress notes as follows: --On 08/20/16, a nurse aide reported he pulled his wife's hair and told her to knock it off. Also,his wife was heard yelling from the bathroom. The resident stood outside the bathroom door and told the wife not to make him come in there and choke her. Staff separated the two (2) residents and monitored them. --On 11/17/16, he wandered into another resident's room and tried to get into a female resident's bed, thinking it was his wife. The other resident scratched him. --On 11/18/16, he yelled at other residents while eating supper in the dayroom, but was easily redirected. --On 11/28/16, he was very agitated on the first part of the shift, combative with staff, and grabbed staff by the throat. Staff was unable to redirect him without causing more agitation. --On 11/30/16,, the resident was (typed as written) very sexual harassment to female staff doing p.m. (evening) cares. --On 12/10/16, he yelled and became agitated with his wife. Redirection and 1:1 was successful. An interview was completed with registered charge nurse (RN) #49 on 01/10/17 at 3:55 p.m. She said she was unaware of any sexually acting out behaviors except for that recorded in nurse progress noted on 11/30/16. She said she would not have updated the care plan based on that one instance. She said there is no record of sexual behaviors occurring on 10/19/16 except for the one (1) checkmark in the column denoting sexual behaviors that was entered into the computer by a nursing assistant. The check mark does not describe what he may have done that day. She said she wondered if it may have been check marked in error. An interview was completed with registered charge nurse (RN) #193 on 01/11/17 at 1:00 p.m. She said due to an increase in his behaviors, she thought the care plan should have been revised. To remedy that problem, she said she revised the care plan today to include a focus related to sexually inappropriate behaviors with his wife and staff.

Residents were observed receiving meal trays served by staff members who failed to wash and/or sanitize their hands after having first touched inanimate objects prior to the tray serve. This practice had the potential to transmit disease causing organisms via cross contamination from unclean surfaces to residents' dining equipment. Although this had the potential to affect more than a limited number of residents who received meal trays on the 300 North unit, it directly affected four (4) of the residents observed. Resident identifiers: #71, #54, #97, #100. Facility census: 183. Findings include: a) Resident #71 Because of outbreaks of gastrointestinal illness and respiratory infections within the facility, the facility served meals to the majority of residents in their rooms. The main dining rooms were closed temporarily in an effort to quarantine to help decrease the spread of illness among residents until the outbreaks subsided. During observation of the meal service to residents on 01/09/17, nurse aide (NA) #46 served a tray to Resident #130 in Room #305 at 1:10 p.m The NA moved the plastic drink cup on her over-bed table with bare hands, while placing her tray of food in front of her. Without washing and/or sanitizing hands, NA #46 obtained unwrapped silverware from the metal silverware holder on top of the food cart with bare hands, then obtained a tray for Resident #71 and served it to her at 1:15 p.m. This same NA removed the lid from her meal tray, and placed the lid atop the resident's plastic, pink water pitcher. NA #46 then assisted the resident by setting up her tray. Tray set up consists of things such as removing lids, opening and placing straws in drinks, removing bread from its package and buttering it, and ensuring the resident had enough room on the over-bed table for the meal tray. The NA then picked up the lid from atop the resident's plastic water pitcher, and placed it on top of the food cart which was located in the hallway. b) Resident #54 On 01/09/17 NA #46 left Resident #71's room after delivering her lunch tray. Without washing and/or sanitizing hands, this NA obtained unwrapped silverware from the metal silverware holder located on top of the food cart, using bare hands. NA #46 then obtained a tray for Resident #54 from the food cart and served it to Resident #54 at 1:15 p.m NA #46 moved items from the resident's overbed tray, opened up straws and placed them in her drink with bare hands. Next, the NA rummaged in the resident's bedside table as if looking for something. c) Resident #97 On 01/09/17 NA #46 left Resident #54's room after delivering her lunch tray, and after touching items in her room with bare hands. Without washing and/or sanitizing hands, this NA obtained unwrapped silverware from the metal silverware holder located on top of the food cart, using bare hands. NA #46 then obtained a tray for Resident #97 from the food cart and served it to Resident #97 at 1:20 p.m. d) Resident #100 1. On 01/09/17 at 1:30 p.m., a different NA, name unknown, responded to Resident #237 in a different room where an alarm was sounding. She turned off the alarm. Before leaving the room, the NA raised the Resident #237 upper half side rail with her bare hands. Without washing and/or sanitizing hands, the NA obtained unwrapped silverware from the metal silverware holder located on top of the food cart with bare hands. This NA then obtained and delivered a tray to Resident #100 (residing in a different room than Resident #237). She placed the tray on his over-bed tray,then left the room. 2. On 01/09/17 at 1:33 p.m., a wandering resident from another unit (Resident #217) entered Resident #71's room. The wandering resident picked up Resident #71's pink, plastic water pitcher and drank from it. The wandering resident stepped outside the room into the hallway, and slid one (1) hand into her trousers down to the region of the crotch. She then removed the hand from her trousers and re-entered Resident #71's room. She again picked up the pitcher and drank from it. This was brought to staff's attention as none had witnessed this incident. Nurse Aide (NA) #155 took Resident #71's pink, plastic water pitcher and placed it on a rack with other dirty dinnerware. Without first washing and/or sanitizing hands, NA #155 sat down beside Resident #100 on 01/09/17 at 1:36 p.m., and began assisting him to eat his meal. e) Interviews and policy review An interview was conducted with third floor north unit registered nurse (RN) #61 on 01/10/17 at 12:34 p.m. Upon inquiry, she said she expected staff to wash and/or sanitize their hands between tray serves if they touched objects or residents during a tray serve. She was informed of the afore mentioned situations where this protocol was not followed by several staff members on yesterday's lunch meal serve on this unit. She said she would take care of this right away, and would educate staff prior to 01/10/17's lunch tray service in the residents' rooms. On 01/11/17 at 12:00 p.m., the administrator provided a copy of the facility's hand-washing/Hand Hygiene policy. The policy provided stated under number one (1), All personnel shall be trained and regularly in-serviced on the importance of hand hygiene in preventing the transmission of healthcare-associated infections.

This failed practice had the potential to affect more than a limited number of residents residing in the facility. Practices to prevent the transmission of infection were not exercised in regards to unclean handrails observed throughout the facility. Employee hand hygiene observed during meal service was not consistent with standards of practice to reduce spread of infection and reduce cross contamination. Resident identifiers: #130, #54, #97, #100, and #71. Facility census: 183. Findings include: a) Handrails On 01/11/17 at 9:06 a.m. during a facility tour, Housekeeping Supervisor #69 stated that the observation of intermittent soiled handrail compartments on second and third floor corridors was not the expectation of facility standards. Hand Hygiene b) Resident #130 During observation of the meal service to residents on 01/09/17, Nursing Assistant (NA) #46 served a tray to Resident #130 in room [ROOM NUMBER] at 1:10 p.m The NA moved the plastic drink cup on her over-bed table with bare hands, while placing her tray of food in front of her. Without washing and/or sanitizing hands, NA #46 obtained unwrapped silverware from the metal silverware holder on top of the food cart with bare hands, then obtained a tray for Resident #71 and served it to her at 1:15 p.m. This same NA removed the lid from her meal tray, and placed the lid atop the resident's plastic, pink water pitcher. NA #46 then assisted the resident by setting up her tray. Tray set up consists of things such as removing lids, opening and placing straws in drinks, removing bread from its package and buttering it, and ensuring the resident has enough room on the over-bed table for the meal tray. The NA then picked up the lid from atop the resident's plastic water pitcher, and placed it on top of the food cart which was located in the hallway. c) Resident #54 On 01/09/17 NA #46 left Resident #71's room after delivering her lunch tray.

She placed the tray on his over-bed tray,then left the room. f) Resident #71 On 01/09/17 at 1:33 p.m., a wandering resident from another unit (Resident #217) entered Resident #71's room. The wandering resident picked up Resident #71's pink, plastic water pitcher and drank from it. The wandering resident stepped outside the room into the hallway, and slid one (1) hand into her trousers down to the region of the crotch. She then removed the hand from her trousers and re-entered Resident #71's room. She again picked up the pitcher and drank from it. This was brought to staff's attention as none had witnessed this incident. Nursing assistant (NA) #155 took Resident #71's pink, plastic water pitcher and placed it on a rack with other dirty dinnerware. Without first washing and/or sanitizing hands, NA #155 sat down beside Resident #100 on 01/09/17 at 1:36 p.m., and began assisting him to eat his meal. An interview was conducted with third floor north unit registered nurse (RN) #61 on 01/10/17 at 12:34 p.m. Upon inquiry, she said she expected staff to wash and/or sanitize their hands between tray serves if they touched objects or residents during a tray serve. She was informed of the afore mentioned situations where this protocol was not followed by several staff members on yesterday's (01/09/17) lunch meal serve on this unit. She said she would take care of this right away, and would educate staff prior to today's lunch tray serve in the residents' rooms.

The NOMNCs had to be issued two days prior to the resident's last covered day. She said the SNFABN was prepared by the Minimum Data Set (MDS) staff and the business office. She issued the NOMNC for Resident #77. She said she called and did a verbal notification with the resident's Power of Attorney (POA). The POA could not get to the facility for a couple days to be able to sign it. She did not complete the verbal portion of the NOMNC since the POA could sign the paper at a later date.

When she completes a verbal notification, she explains why services are being discontinued for the resident. She explains their right to appeal and the appeal process. For the SNFABN form, she explains what the payment would be and goes over the different options they could choose. She said when a resident received a SNFABN, the MDS staff completed the reason for the resident being discontinued from skilled services and the business office completed the payment portion of the notice. MDS then e-mails the SW team to let them know which NOMNCs and SNFABNs needed issued. 4) MDS staff members #115 and #28 were interviewed on 06/20/18 at 9:37 AM. MDS staff member #115 said anyone who was going to remain in the facility and not return to the community received a SNFABN.

MDS staff emailed the SW to let them know which notices needed to be provided. She said the SNFABN is given at the same time as the NOMNC. Both notices were to be given two days prior to the resident's last covered day so the resident had time to appeal if they wished to do so. 6) The NHA was interviewed on 06/20/18 at 10:50 AM. She said they had identified that they had an issue with the timeliness for NOMNCs. They knew they weren't issuing the SNFABN as they should.

She acknowledged the 08/03/17 nursing admission assessment and 08/03/17 weekly skin assessment found her skin intact, as did the admission MDS with ARD 08/10/17. She agreed the nurse who wrote the 08/10/17 weekly skin assessment about the pressure ulcer to the right heel should have described the pressure ulcer's appearance and size, but she did not do so. --She said had the nurse completed an SBAR, they would have been sure to notify the physician and family and get treatment orders. --She agreed that the first mention of necrotic tissue on the right heel occurred during the 08/17/17 weekly skin assessment.

Observation of the wound Observation of the right heel on 01/09/18 at 3:45 p.m. found a new deep tissue injury was present which had not yet been identified by the facility. The inner right heel had a swollen, reddened area approximately two and one-half inches in diameter. The middle of the wound contained an irregular shaped, maroon discoloration. The ADON measured the darkened, maroon discolored area at 2.0 by 2.3 centimeters (cm). The ADON said this was a brand new deep tissue injury first identified at this time when the old dressing was removed. She said the heel was dressed yesterday morning, and there was no mention of a new suspected deep tissue injury at that time on the inner aspect of the right heel. She surmised it developed between then and now. The ADON said the physician's assistant was in the building and they notified him to look at the new wound. He also wrote new orders. The MPOA was notified of the change in condition. A pair of white boots lined with sheepskin lay in her bed which staff had removed prior to the dressing change. After the dressing change, the resident wore dark colored padded boots on both feet instead of the white Rooke boots 5. Interview with Director of Nursing (DON) and ADON An interview was conducted with the director of nursing (DON) on 01/09/18 at 4:30 PM. A discussion ensued about the lack of evidence of physician or MPOA notification at least when the wound was assessed with [REDACTED]. Also, there was no confirmed date of the initial onset of the pressure wound of the right heel, or measurements/assessments/treatment to show evidence of any ongoing monitoring and assessment. The DON said she addressed that whole issue in (MONTH) related to this resident's pressure ulcer, and she brought it to QA (Quality Assessment and Assurance) in (MONTH) (YEAR). She said at that time, they had a lot of agency nurses, and that was the root of the problem. She said the nurse who first documented the pressure ulcer on 09/10/17 lacked long-term experience. She said that nurse no longer works at the facility. She was informed that this would be cited, and a list of copies of needed documents was given to her and the ADON for tomorrow. During an interview with the ADON on 01/10/18 at 2:15 PM, she said she could still find no information on notification of the physician or family of the pressure wound prior to her going out the hospital on [DATE] after the fall. She said she still could find no information or notification of the physician or family of the pressure would on 08/17/17 when the nurse assessed and documented necrotic tissue on the right heel. Upon inquiry, she said both she and the DON informed the administrator yesterday of the pressure ulcer issue that would be cited. Interviews were conducted with the ADON and the DON on 01/11/17 at 8:00 AM. The ADON clarified the resident has had two (2) debridements of the pressure wound to the right heel, once on 10/30/17 and again on 12/11/17. She clarified that the (name of hospital) on 08/20/17 gave orders for a referral to the (name of wound care clinic), which the resident first attended on 08/25/17. She clarified that the only physician or physician's assistant progress notes that they could find which mentioned a pressure ulcer since admission were the 08/22/17 and the 01/09/18 notes, both of which she made copies of yesterday. She clarified that they were still unable to find any evidence of the facility's physician's treatment orders for the pressure wound to the right heel prior to 08/25/17, other than the Rooke boots. The lack of documentation to support the notification of the physician that Resident #10 had a pressure ulcer with necrotic tissue, lack of evidence to support when the pressure ulcer developed, and lack of physician treatment orders all contributed in actual harm to Resident #10.",2020-09-01

She acknowledged that nursing's 08/10/17 weekly skin review stated that the resident had a pressure sore on the right heel. Based on her review of nurse progress notes and nursing assessments, she said this 08/10/17 weekly skin review was the first mention by nursing of the right heel pressure ulcer, and it should have been captured in the admisison MDS. Review of the quarterly minimum data set (MDS), with assessment reference date (ARD) of 10/30/17, found that it assessed a Stage 2 pressure ulcer that was not present upon admission. It assessed the onset date of the oldest Stage 2 pressure ulcer as 10/17/17. This was in addition to an unstageable pressure ulcer covered by slough and/or eschar, which was also not present upon admission. A situation, background, assessment, request (SBAR) communication form dated 10/11/17, reported a change in condition as resident has a pressure ulcer starting on her coccyx.

The nurse wrote the new orders into the nursing note, which included to Continue aggressive wound offloading. 2. Interview with Assistant Director of Nursing On 01/09/18, an interview was conducted with the assistant director of nursing (ADON) from 2:15 p.m. to 3:15 PM. Upon inquiry, she said she did not see any treatment orders for the pressure wound of the right heel prior to 08/25/17. She said she could only see the Rooke boots order prior to 08/25/17. Upon inquiry as to when the facility first identified the pressure ulcer to the right heel, she said she assumed the resident came in with it. She acknowledged the 08/03/17 nursing admission assessment and 08/03/17 weekly skin assessment found her skin intact, as did the admission MDS with ARD 08/10/17. She agreed that the nurse who wrote the 08/10/17 weekly skin assessment about the pressure ulcer to the right heel should have described the pressure ulcer's appearance and size. She said had the nurse completed an SBAR, they would have been sure to notify the physician and family and get treatment orders. She agreed that the first mention of necrotic tissue on the right heel occurred during the 08/17/17 weekly skin assessment. Upon inquiry as to whether the medical power of attorney (MPOA) or the physician was notified of the necrosis on 08/17/17, she said she did not see any evidence of those notifications, or evidence of any measurements, and no SBAR was completed by the nurse on 08/17/17. Upon request to observe the wound to the right heel, the ADON said she would first gather the supplies, then dress the wound while observed. 2. Observation of the pressure ulcer Observation of the right heel on 01/09/18 at 3:45 p.m. found a new deep tissue injury was present which had not yet been identified by the facility. The inner right heel had a swollen, reddened area approximately two and one-half inches in diameter. The middle of the wound contained an irregular shaped, maroon discoloration. The ADON measured the darkened, maroon discolored area at 2.0 by 2.3 cms. The DON said this was a brand new deep tissue injury first identified at this time when the old dressing was removed. She said the heel was dressed yesterday morning, and there was no mention of a new suspected deep tissue injury at that time on the inner aspect of the right heel. She surmised it developed between then and now. The ADON said the physician's assistant was in the building and they notified him to look at the new wound. He also wrote new orders. The MPOA was notified of the change in condition. A pair of white boots lined with sheepskin lay in her bed which staff had removed prior to the dressing change. After the dressing change, the resident wore dark colored padded boots on both feet instead of the white Rooke boots. The older pressure ulcer, located on the outer right heel, was similar to the 01/05/18 assessment which was 0.8 by 2.0 by 0.1 cms, with dry yellow/brown wound bed without drainage or foul odor. 3. Interviews On 01/09/18 at 4:15 p.m., an interview was conducted with the physician's assistant, Employee #400. Upon inquiry as to how often he and/or the physician assess the wounds, he said they have no set days to look at pressure ulcers, or conduct scheduled wound care clinics. Rather, they depend on nurses to notify them of changes, as they did just now. An interview was conducted with the director of nursing (DON) on 01/09/18 at 4:30 p.m. A discussion ensued about the lack of evidence of physician or MPOA notification at least when the wound was assessed with [REDACTED]. Also, there was no confirmed date of the initial onset of the pressure wound of the right heel, or measurements/assessments/treatment to show evidence of any ongoing monitoring and assessment. The DON said she addressed that whole issue in (MONTH) related to this resident's pressure ulcer, and she brought it to QA (Quality Assessment and Assurance) in (MONTH) (YEAR). She said at that time, they had a lot of agency nurses, and that was the root of the problem. She said the nurse who first documented the pressure ulcer on 0910/17 lacked long-term experience. She said that nurse no longer works at the facility. She was informed that this would be cited, and a list of copies of needed documents was given to her and the ADON for tomorrow. An interview was conducted with the director of rehab Employee #41, on 01/10/18 at 8:15 a.m. in Resident #10's room. Resident #10 sat in a chair in the hall at this time. Employee #41 found the white boots with the sheepskin in the resident's closet. She said they were Rooke boots. She said the dark colored ones lying in the chair at present, were the ones they put on her after yesterday afternoon's dressing change. She said they are called a Heel Medex. She said the Heel Medex is good for offloading, and is a prevalon type of boot. She said that based on her own experience, the Medex boot is better than the Rooke boot for offloading pressure. Upon inquiry, she said a waffle boot is plastic and filled with air. She said it can become hot and sweaty. She said it is air-filled, and that the air consistency does not remain the same consistently. She then returned to the therapy room. She said therapy treated this resident last fall with various modalities to reduce the pain from the pressure wound of the right heel and to promote its healing. She said they used different things last fall such as diathermy. She said that when the resident was discharged from therapy, that she no longer had pain in the pressure wound, and the wound looked like a skin patch ready to peel off. When asked about the waffle boots, she said she did not recall this resident ever having waffle boots in the past Four (4) other therapy staff personnel were present (no patients at this moment), and when asked, none of them could recall using waffle boots for this resident. Employee #41 said different products have different percentages of off-loading, pressure relief. She showed a picture in a catalogue of an off-loading boot she said she could order that is 100% off-loading. Upon inquiry, she said she has not been asked by nursing to select a pressure relieving boot for aggressive wound off-loading for this resident. She said that generally when the physician gives an order to nursing for pressure relieving foot coverings, that nursing use their own discretion to make selections. A second interview was conducted with Employee #41 on 01/10/18 at 9:15 a.m. for clarification. She said that an off-loading boot is a broad term, as there are different percentages of off-loading ability per boot. She said if she received an order from a physician for an off-loading boot, that she would have to contact the physician and ask for more specifics of what he wanted and needed for a resident. During an interview with the ADON on 01/10/18 at 2:15 p.m., she said she could still find no information on notification of the physician or family of the pressure wound prior to her going out the hospital on [DATE] after the fall. She said she still could find no information or notification of the physician or family of the pressure would on 08/17/17 when the nurse assessed and documented necrotic tissue on the right heel. Upon inquiry, she said both she and the DON informed the administrator yesterday of the pressure ulcer issue that would be cited. Interviews were conducted with the ADON and the DON on 01/11/17 at 8:00 a.m. The ADON clarified the resident has had two (2) debridements of the pressure wound to the right heel, once on 10/30/17 and again on 12/11/17. She clarified that the (name of hospital) on 08/20/17 gave orders for a referral to the (name of wound care clinic), which the resident first attended on 08/25/17. She clarified that the only physician or physician's assistant progress notes that they could find which mentioned a pressure ulcer since admission were the 08/22/17 and the 01/09/18 notes, both of which she made copies of yesterday. She clarified that they were still unable to find any evidence of the facility's physician's treatment orders for the pressure wound to the right heel prior to 08/25/17, other than the Rooke boots. Another interview was completed with the ADON on 01/11/17 at 9:45 a.m. Discussed with her what Employee #41 said about differing amounts of offloading per product, and that she has one she can order that is 100% offloading. The ADON said she does not really know that much about all the particulars for all of the boots. Informed her that the wound care clinic on 08/25/17 wrote that Rooke boot is good for shearing preventions, but no so good for offloading, and they recommended a waffle boot or elevating the feet on pillows. Informed her that the physician ordered a waffle boot for five (5) weeks, but the current recapitulation of physician's orders [REDACTED]. Rather, the order and MAR indicated [REDACTED]. The ADON listened and acknowledged. No further information was provided prior to exit. Following exit, the facility emailed a Rooke product advertisement/brochure, which stated in part that the Classic Rooke offloading boot was designed to protect the healing limb and help prevent pressure ulcers.",2020-09-01

Even though the head of the bed was elevated 30 degrees, Resident #66 was observed to be slid down in the bed with their head flat during an enteral feeding for approximately thirty (30) minutes. Upon interviewing the staff, a Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) and a Nurse Aide (NA) were both aware the resident frequently slid down in bed allowing for their head not to be elevated during enteral feedings. Neither staff member reported this behavior. Further investigation revealed there were no interventions in place to help prevent the resident from sliding down in bed allowing their head to be flat during enteral feedings. These findings were determined to pose an immediate jeopardy to the health and well-being of Resident #66.

The resident was in the same slid down position in bed with their head flat. Upon closer observation, it was discovered the resident was receiving an enteral feeding via a pump. An immediate interview, on 01/10/18 at 7:45 AM, with Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) #3, revealed the enteral feeding is started daily at 6:00 AM. The LPN stated the resident's head should be elevated during his feeding. The LPN stated she would seek assistance from another staff member to help pull the resident up in bed. The LPN stated the resident slides down in bed all the time. The LPN stated she had not communicated the resident's frequent sliding down in bed to her supervisor. The LPN stated there were no current interventions in place to prevent the resident from sliding down. A record review, on 01/10/18 at 7:50 AM, revealed the resident was initially admitted to the facility on [DATE] with the [DIAGNOSES REDACTED].

The order was dated 01/05/18. A review of the Care Plan was conducted on 01/10/18 at 8:20 AM. The Care Plan, with a revision date of 12/19/17, contained the focus of tube feeding and care needs with the intervention of the head of the bed being elevated 30 degrees at all times. The care plan did not include the resident sliding down in the bed when the head is elevated. An interview, on 01/10/18 at 8:45 AM, with Nurse Aide (NA) #57, revealed the resident slides down a lot and has to be pulled up at least twice a shift if not more. The NA stated she has not reported this behavior to anyone. The NA stated everyone knows he does it. An interview with the Director of Nursing (DON), on 01/10/18 at 8:55 AM, revealed she had no idea the resident slid down in bed especially during enteral feedings. The DON stated any staff member who knew the resident was sliding down in bed should have reported it immediately.

LPN's #27, #33, #49 and #59 performed IV therapy for Resident #48 and LPNs #6, #20, #39, #49 and #64 performed IV therapy for Resident #32 without sufficient training and competency. Immediate Jeopardy was abated on 11/13/18 at 8:10 PM. The facility completed an assessment of Resident #48 and Resident #32 to identify any adverse effects related to IV therapy. The facility revised the staffing schedule to ensure an Registered Nurse would be performing IV therapy for the two residents and any newly admitted residents with IV access. Although the Immediate Jeopardy was removed, the facility remained out of compliance at a severity level two (no actual harm, with potential for more than minimal harm that is not Immediate Jeopardy) until LPNs were trained and competent with IV therapy. See F684 (Quality of Care) regarding Resident #48 and #32. See F883 (Facility Assessment) and F867 (Quality Assurance and Performance Improvement program) for additional information. Findings include: During an observation on 11/13/18 at 4:00 PM, LPN #27 was observed entering Resident #48's room. LPN #27 was preparing to disconnect the [MEDICATION NAME] pump. An [MEDICATION NAME] pump is a device that infuses intravenous medication once the tubing is unclamped. The device pushes intravenous medication through the tubing and a filter that is attached to the reservoir. LPN #27 had a syringe with normal saline and was preparing to disconnect the [MEDICATION NAME] pump and flush the PICC line with 10 cubic centimeters (ccs) of normal saline as ordered by the physician. A PICC line is a thin, soft long catheter (tube) that is inserted into a vein in the upper arm, leg or neck. The tip of the catheter is positioned in a large vein that carries blood into the heart. The PICC line is used for long-term intravenous (IV) antibiotics, and for blood draws, which is considered IV therapy. The surveyor intervened prior to the administration and queried LPN #27 on her training to ensure proper care and services regarding medication administration via a PICC line. She stated she had received training from the facility regarding care and services required for a PICC line. When queried further about the difference between a PICC line and other peripherally inserted IVs, she stated, it's just higher up on the arm. When queried on adverse reactions that can occur with a PICC line, LPN #27 stated redness, swelling and hot to touch. LPN #27 did not include the life threatening adverse reactions of blood clots and [MEDICAL CONDITION] embolism. During an interview conducted on 11/14/18 at 11:35 AM, LPN #49 stated he was employed at facility for approximately three months. When queried about type of training he received regarding IV therapy he stated, I watched a 5-minute video on IV therapy and received a 4-5-page handout. When asked if he felt confident in his skill set for intravenous administration of medication, he stated yes since the IV medication was in a ball type device that delivered the medication. When queried about being assessed for competency, he stated the previous education nurse watched him perform IV therapy; however, he could not remember when the evaluation occurred. LPN #49 verified he had been administering IV medications via a PICC to Resident #48 and Resident #32. During an interview conducted 11/14/18 at 11:45 AM, LPN #33 stated being employed at the facility since (MONTH) (YEAR). She verified she had not received training on intravenous therapy including care of a resident with a PICC line. She stated she had not been provided training on how to administer medications via a PICC line nor had anyone at the facility verified her competency to care for a resident with a PICC line. She verified she had been administering medication via a PICC line to Resident #48. During an interview conducted on 11/14/18 at 11:55 AM, LPN #6 stated being employed at facility for approximately [AGE] years. She stated she received intravenous therapy training around [AGE] years ago. She stated the facility provided a one-hour intravenous therapy training approximately 6 months ago. She stated the training did not include a competency assessment to ensure an adequate skill set to care for residents receiving intravenous therapy through a PICC line. She verified she had administered IV medication to Resident #32 via a PICC line. During an interview conducted on 11/15/18 at 11:31 AM, Unit Manager RN #29 stated she had been employed by facility for approximately one year and does not remember receiving training on the facility policy for intravenous therapy nor remembers being assessed for competency for intravenous therapy. In addition, at 12:06 PM on 11/15/18, Unit Manager #29 was queried if she received training regarding scope of practice for License Practical Nurses regarding intravenous therapy. Unit Manager RN #29 stated No. A Training Attendance document dated 07/05/17 titled IV Certification with a duration of 1-hour was reviewed. LPN #27 and #6 were in attendance. The training content was reviewed and it did not contain information specific to care and services for a PICC line and the use of an [MEDICATION NAME] pump to administer intravenous antibiotics. During an interview conducted on 11/14/18 at 1:15 PM, District Director of Clinical Resources RN #112 produced a competency checklist for LPN #33 dated for 11/13/18. She stated the competency check was conducted yesterday by Staff Development Manager RN #5. She further verified the training material used by the facility during new employee orientation and the Licensed Nurse Competency Checklist did specifically include care for a resident with a PICC line. In addition, she verified the training material for the IV Certification conducted on 07/05/17 did not include content for the care of residents receiving intravenous medications through a PICC line. During an interview conducted on 11/14/18 at 1:30 PM, Staff Development Manger RN #5 stated she verified LPN #33's competency on 11/13/18 by having her repeat back to her how to care for a resident with a PICC line which included how to administer medications. During an interview conducted on 11/14/18 at 11:45 AM, District Director of Clinical Resources #112 stated in order to ensure nurse competency in caring for a resident receiving medications through a PICC line, the LPN should be observed performing the skill. She stated having the nurse repeat verbally the steps would not be sufficient to ensure competency. In addition, during the interview, a request was made for training documentation for LPN's #20, #35, #39, #49, #59 and #64. District Director of Clinical Resources #112 was unable to provide documentation of LPN training and verification of competency related to care and services for a resident with a PICC line prior to the time of date and time of exit. Review of the facility policy and procedure Peripherally inserted central catheter (PICC) drug administration dated (MONTH) 18, (YEAR) included Critical Notes! Note: PICC Line procedures may only be conducted by a Licensed Nurse with appropriate training. Review of APPENDIX B of the WEST VIRGINIA STATE BOARD OF EXAMINERS FOR LICENSED PRACTICAL NURSES revealed a statement originally issued in June, 1977. The statement indicated the administration of I.V. fluids is not a part of the standard curriculum for accredited schools of practical nursing in West Virginia. However, if additional training has been received and can be verified, providing there is adequate supervision and the licensed practical nurse is willing to accept responsibility, it is not illegal for a licensed practical nurse to perform administration of I.V. fluids.",2020-09-01

This was evident for one (1) of one (1) residents reviewed for [MEDICAL CONDITION] care. Resident identifier: #187. Facility census 91. Findings include: a) Resident #187 The medical record was reviewed on 12/03/19. This resident first came to the facility on [DATE]. He received a [MEDICAL CONDITION] during a hospitalization which immediately preceded his admission to the facility. The care plan as related to [MEDICAL CONDITION] was sparse. It directed to [MEDICAL CONDITION] were secured at all times, humidified oxygen (did not include percentage or equipment settings), suction as necessary, keep an [MEDICAL CONDITION] and obturator at bedside - if coughed out, open stoma with a hemostat if tube cannot be reinserted. The care plan did not include the type and size of the airway. Observation of the resident on 12/03/19 at 3:45 PM found him lying in bed with the head of the bed elevated. He received humidification to [MEDICAL CONDITION] from a Heavy Duty Aerosol Compressor. This machine sat upon a bedside table to the left of the resident's bed. A portable suction machine also sat upon the bedside table. There was no suction catheter or yonker at the machine. On the right of the resident's bed an oxygen concentrator sat on the floor. This machine was turned on and was delivering oxygen at six (6) liters per minute (lpm). The opposite end of the oxygen tubing lay in his bed but was not connected to anything. An interview was conducted with licensed nurse #119 (LPN #119) on 12/03/19 at 3:45 PM. She acknowledged the concentrator was set for, and running, at six (6) lpm, but the tubing was laying on the bed and not connected to anything. She said he was not receiving oxygen, rather just humidified air. She said the Heavy Duty Aerosol Compressor was set on 40 on the dial. She said it delivered 28% humidification and showed on another dial as such. She said she would have to check orders to see about the settings as this was the way in which it was set. When told her there was nothing in the physician's orders or the care plan about the settings, she said she would look for the unit manager. She showed that the suction catheters were inside the resident's closet which was located against the wall across from the foot of the resident's bed. At 3:55 PM on 12/03/19 LPN #119 was observed in the front hall talking with unit manager registered nurse #58 (RN #58). The following issues were discussed with RN #58: 1. The suction machine at the bedside had no suction catheter at the bedside for emergency suctioning. 2. The dial on the Heavy Duty Aerosol Compressor was set on 40, and it appears that the setting on the humidifier bottle may be at 28%. However, there are no MD orders or care planned directives as to how to set this machine or the humidifier bottle. 3. The humidifier bottle on the Heavy Duty Aerosol Compressor had an expiration date of (MONTH) (YEAR). RN #58 then walked to the resident's room. While en route, she asked health information coordinator #101 (HIC #101) if they had Tupperware containers and if Resident #187 had one at his bedside. HIC #101 replied they do have Tupperware containers, but that Resident #187 had none yet at his beside. RN #58 agreed the humidifier bottle was beyond the expiration date, and she obtained a fresh one. She looked at the oxygen concentrator. Someone had come in and removed the oxygen tubing from the concentrator and turned it off. She agreed there was no suction catheter at the bedside for emergency if needed. She looked inside the resident's closet which had a jumble of oxygen therapy equipment inside, and found a sterile suction catheter/bag and laid it by the suction machine. She said had the Tupperware box been at the bedside that the suction catheter would have been inside it. She said she understood that it should be at the bedside as in an emergency people want it quickly. She looked at the dial on the Heavy Duty Aerosol Compressor. She said it was set by the respiratory therapist. She was informed that there were no parameters to follow in the physician's orders or the care plan regarding the settings. She said the physician is here today and she will ask him about clarification in the orders. She said she will also update the baseline care plan. Further review of the medical record on 12/04/19 found the following entries for pulse oximetry: -11/28/19 - 97% at 6:28 PM, 94% at 6:55 PM and 94% at 4:19 PM -11/29/19 - 94% at 3:15 PM, and 95% at 7:38 PM -11/30/19 - 94% at 1:18 PM -12/01/19 - 94% at 3:05 PM -12/02/19 - NONE RECORDED -12/03/19 - 98% at 7:27 PM On 12/04/19 at 9 AM an interview was conducted with the director of nursing (DON). It was discussed that pulse oximetry readings were only done and/or recorded sporadically since admission as noted on the dates and times above. She agreed there were no physician's orders or care planned directives as to how often to assess his oxygen level. When asked how often she expected staff to obtain pulse oximetry rates, she said only when the physician orders it. An interview was conducted on 12/04/19 at 9:15 AM with RN #58. She said his pulse oximetry measurement has always been above 92% so they do not routinely check it as he is on room air, not oxygen. When asked what their policy directed for the frequency of pulse oximetry measurement for residents with trachs, she said that staff should check the resident's pulse oximetry whenever they [MEDICAL CONDITION], and before and after suctioning, but they do not always write it down. RN #58 said staff should document each time they assess the pulse oximetry. She acknowledged the standard that it if it is not documented, then it did not happen. An interview was conducted with staff development registered nurse #36 on 12/04/19 at 9:30 AM. When asked what [MEDICAL CONDITION] policy and procedure said about assessing pulse oximetry, she said it just says to assess the patient. She said she obtains pulse oximetry assessment at least before and after care provided to the trach. She said she could not speak for all nurses that they are documenting pulse oximetry results. At 10:30 AM on 12/04/19 RN #58 brought a copy of a policy titled [MEDICAL CONDITION] Management which had a release date of (MONTH) (YEAR) as a Clinical Practice Standard; a copy of a policy titled Spontaneous Decannulation: Reinsertion of [MEDICAL CONDITION] with revision date (MONTH) 2008; and another titled Tracheal Button Insertion, with revision date (MONTH) 2008. None of these address obtaining oxygen levels per pulse oximetry. An interview was conducted with the administrator and the DON on 12/05/19 at 12:15 PM. It was discussed that the baseline care plan was found silent as to the settings of the Heavy Duty Aerosol Compressor and the percentage of humidification; how often to assess and document pulse oximetry measurements; the type and size of the airway, and the provision of all emergency equipment at the bedside which includes suction catheters. They acknowledged understanding. No further information was provided prior to exit.",2020-09-01

This affected one (1) of one resident reviewed for [MEDICAL CONDITION] care. Resident identifier: Resident #187. Facility census 91. Findings include: a) Resident #187 The medical record was reviewed on 12/03/19. This resident first came to the facility on [DATE]. He received a [MEDICAL CONDITION] during a hospitalization which immediately preceded his admission to the facility. Physician's orders did not address the humidification bottle's percentage setting, or the percentage pressure setting of the aerosol compressor. Physician's orders did not set parameters for the pulse oximetry measurements for when he should be notified or how often to obtain pulse oximetry measurements. The care plan as related to the [MEDICAL CONDITION] was sparse. It directed to [MEDICAL CONDITION] were secured at all times, humidified oxygen (did not include percentage or equipment settings), suction as necessary, keep an [MEDICAL CONDITION] and obturator at bedside - if coughed out, open stoma with a hemostat if tube cannot be reinserted. The care plan did not include the type and size of the airway. Observation of the resident on 12/03/19 at 3:45 PM found him lying in bed with the head of the bed elevated. He received humidification to [MEDICAL CONDITION] from a Heavy Duty Aerosol Compressor. This machine sat upon a bedside table to the left of the resident's bed. A portable suction machine also sat upon the bedside table. There was no suction catheter or yonker at the machine. On the right of the resident's bed an oxygen concentrator sat on the floor. This machine was turned on and was delivering oxygen at six (6) liters per minute (lpm). The opposite end of the oxygen tubing lay in his bed but was not connected to anything. An interview was conducted with licensed nurse #119 (LPN #119) on 12/03/19 at 3:45 PM. She acknowledged the concentrator was set at six (6) lpm running, but the tubing was laying on the bed and not connected to anything. She said he was not receiving oxygen, rather just humidified air. She said the Heavy Duty Aerosol Compressor was set on 40 on the dial. She said it delivered 28% humidification and showed on another dial as such. She said she would have to check orders to see about the settings as this was the way in which it was set. When told there was nothing in the physician's orders or the care plan about the settings, she said she would look for the unit manager. She showed that the suction catheters were inside the resident's closet which was located against the wall across from the foot of the resident's bed. At 3:55 PM on 12/03/19 LPN #119 was observed in the front hall talking with unit manager registered nurse #58 (RN #58). The following issues were discussed with RN #58: 1. The suction machine at the bedside had no suction catheter at the bedside for emergency suctioning. 2. The dial on the Heavy Duty Aerosol Compressor was set on 40, and it appears that the setting on the humidifier bottle may be at 28%. However, there are no MD orders or care planned directives as to how to set this machine or the humidifier bottle. 3. The humidifier bottle on the Heavy Duty Aerosol Compressor had an expiration date of (MONTH) (YEAR). RN #58 then walked to the resident's room. While en route, she asked health information coordinator #101 (HIC #101) if they had Tupperware containers and if Resident #187 had one at his bedside. HIC #101 replied they do have Tupperware containers, but that Resident #187 had none yet at his beside. RN #58 agreed the humidifier bottle was beyond the expiration date, and she obtained a fresh one. She looked at the oxygen concentrator. Someone had come in and removed the oxygen tubing from the concentrator and turned it off. She agreed there was no suction catheter at the bedside for emergency if needed. She looked inside the resident's closet which had a jumble of oxygen therapy equipment inside, and found a sterile suction catheter/bag and laid it by the suction machine. She said had the Tupperware box been at the bedside that the suction catheter would have been inside it. She said she understood that it should be at the bedside as in an emergency people want it quickly. She looked at the dial on the Heavy Duty Aerosol Compressor. She said it was set by the respiratory therapist. She was informed that there were no parameters to follow in the physician's orders or the care plan regarding the settings. She said the physician is here today and she will ask him about clarification in the orders. She said she will also update the baseline care plan. Further review of the medical record on 12/04/19 found the following entries for pulse oximetry: -11/28/19 - 97% at 6:28 PM, 94% at 6:55 PM and 94% at 4:19 PM -11/29/19 - 94% at 3:15 PM, and 95% at 7:38 PM -11/30/19 - 94% at 1:18 PM -12/01/19 - 94% at 3:05 PM -12/02/19 - NONE RECORDED -12/03/19 - 98% at 7:27 PM On 12/04/19 at 9 AM an interview was conducted with the director of nursing (DON). It was discussed that pulse oximetry readings were only done and/or recorded sporadically since admission as noted on the dates and times above. She agreed there were no physician's orders or care planned directives as to how often to assess his oxygen level. When asked how often she expected staff to obtain pulse oximetry rates, she said only when the physician orders it. An interview was conducted on 12/04/19 at 9:15 AM with RN #58. She said his pulse oximetry measurement has always been above 92% so they do not routinely check it as he is on room air, not oxygen. When asked what their policy directed for the frequency of pulse oximetry measurement for residents with trachs, she said that staff check the resident's pulse oximetry whenever they [MEDICAL CONDITION], and before and after suctioning, but they do not write it down. RN #58 said staff should document each time they assess the pulse oximetry. She acknowledged the standard that it if it is not documented, then it did not happen. An interview was conducted with staff development registered nurse #36 on 12/04/19 at 9:30 AM. When asked what [MEDICAL CONDITION] policy and procedure said about assessing pulse oximetry, she said it just says to assess the patient. She said she obtains pulse oximetry assessment at least before and after care provided to the trach. She said she could not speak for all nurses that they are documenting pulse oximetry results. At 10:30 AM on 12/04/19 RN #58 brought a copy of a policy titled [MEDICAL CONDITION] Management which had a release date of (MONTH) (YEAR) as a Clinical Practice Standard; a copy of a policy titled Spontaneous Decannulation: Reinsertion of [MEDICAL CONDITION] with revision date (MONTH) 2008; and another titled Tracheal Button Insertion, with revision date (MONTH) 2008. None of these address obtaining oxygen levels per pulse oximetry. An interview was conducted with the administrator and the DON on 12/05/19 at 12:15 PM. It was discussed that the baseline care plan was found silent as to the settings of the Heavy Duty Aerosol Compressor and the percentage of humidification; how often to assess and document pulse oximetry measurements; the type and size of the airway; and the provision of all emergency equipment at the bedside which includes suction catheters. It was discussed that physician's orders did not address the settings of the Heavy Duty Aerosol Compressor and the percentage of humidification; physician's orders did not set parameters for the pulse oximetry measurements for when he should be notified or how often to obtain pulse oximetry measurements. It was also discussed that the humidifier bottle in use on 12/03/19 had an expiration date of (MONTH) (YEAR). They acknowledged understanding.

This affected one (1) of five (5) residents reviewed for unnecessary medications. Resident identifier: #9. Facility census 91. Findings include: a) Resident #9 Review of the medical record on 12/04/19 found this resident was initially prescribed an antidepressant medication on 07/11/18. The resident has continued on this medication and has remained on the same dose through the current date. Further review of the medical record found no evidence that the pharmacy had even once recommended to the physician the consideration of a gradual dose reduction (GDR). An interview was conducted with Health Information Coordinator #101 (HIC #101) on 12/05/19 at 9:30 AM. She said she reviewed all the pharmacy information for this resident and found nothing related to any pharmacy recommendations to the physician to consider a GDR of this antidepressant. An interview was conducted with registered nurse unit manager #58 (RN #58) on 12/05/19 at 10 AM. She said this resident is a hospice patient who entered hospice in (MONTH) 2019. It was discussed that the pharmacy did not relay to the physician a need for the consideration of GDR for [MEDICAL CONDITION] medications in two (2) quarters separated by at least one (1) month in the first year of administration ever since the start date of the medication on 07/11/19. She was unable to provide evidence that this resident had received a trial GDR of the antidepressant or of pharmacy recommendation to the physician to consider a GDR.

An interview was conducted with Laundry employee #17 on 12/04/19 at 8:55 AM. Laundry employee #17 stated that she was told about the skirt. She pointed to a note on the wall in the laundry room, which revealed Resident #70 had lost a black skirt. The laundry worker said she is looking for the skirt and if she does not find the skirt, she will do a concern form. The Administrator on 12/04/19 at 9:00AM, when asked where is residents inventory of personal effects forms in found in the resident hard chart. The Administrator stated that, the form should be found under miscellaneous section. A review of Resident #70's inventory of personal effects form in medical record on 12/04/19 at 9:20 AM, found no inventory of personal effects forms. b) Resident #8 Resident #8 was admitted on [DATE]. A review of Resident #8's quarterly MDS with the ARD of 11/24/19, reveals Resident #8 is identified that he can make self understood and understands others.

The Resident said the Administrator told him that he told him he would replace it. In an interview with Laundry employee #17 on 12/04/19 at 8:58 AM, she was asked whether she was asked to look for Resident #8's, 25 diamonds in a gold ring. Laundry employee #17 stated that, I was not aware (Resident's name ) had lost his ring nor was I told to look for the ring. A review of Resident #8's chart on 12/04/19 at 9:22 AM, found no inventory of personal effects form for Resident #8. In an interview and observation with Resident Care Specialist (RCS) #114 on 12/04/19 at 9:25 AM, she looked for Resident #70 and #8's inventory of personal effects forms. The RCS was unable to find a inventory of personal effects form in the residents record. The RCS stated that each resident should have a inventory of personal effects form completed when they are admitted to the facility. This form is found under the miscellaneous section. The RCS #114 asked the Unit Manager (UN) #58 on 12/04/19 at 9:30 AM, where Resident #8 and #70's inventory of personal effects forms could be found. The UN said under the miscellaneous section. The UM confirmed Resident #70's and #8's medical record did not contain their inventory of personal effects form when they had admitted the residents. The facility's policy revealed any persons clothing or possessions retained by the facility for the resident during his or her stay will be identified and inventoried upon admission using the inventory of personal effects form.

At the beginning, LPN #94 washed her hands in the resident's bathroom. After washing and rinsing her hands, she then used one of her freshly cleaned hands to touch the dirty faucet to turn off the water. She was told about this and agreed she should have turned the water off by using a paper towel to turn the faucet handle, as failure to do so contaminated her clean hand. She then rewashed her hands correctly. On three (3) instances during this observation RN #36 checked the resident's oxygen level with a portable pulse oximetry meter. This meter was placed on the resident's fingertip each time in order to obtain an oxygen level. She said this resident does not have a pulse oximetry meter specifically dedicated just for his use. Rather, multiple residents use the same meter. After each of three (3) checks of his pulse oximetry she placed the meter back into her left uniform pocket. It was discussed with her that recent infection control updates from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) speaks out against this practice of placing used personal care objects back into staff uniform pockets. She agreed, and stated this practice could potentially bring organisms back to the pocket and later be spread to other residents. An interview was conducted with the director of nursing (DON) and the administrator on 12/05/19 at 12:15 PM.

The MRR completed on 01/16/2020 by the pharmacist noted the last GDR evaluation for [MEDICATION NAME] was on 0[DATE] was contraindicated by the physician. The last dose adjustment was on 12/09/19 at which time the physician increased the [MEDICATION NAME] dose from 10mg to 15mg at bedtime (HS). The pharmacist indicated, Residents [MEDICATION NAME] 15 mg HS is due for GDR evaluation which must be attempted unless clinically contraindicated. The physician signed the MRR on 1/20/20 and left the form blank without providing any further comments to indicate his response to the GDR, or any further action to be taken. Review of the Resident's Mediation Administration Record on 02/03/2020 at 10:00 AM, revealed R #40 had been receiving [MEDICATION NAME] 15mg at bedtime for major [MEDICAL CONDITION] since [DATE] through current with no decrease in dose. On 01/29/20 at 12:25 PM, during an interview Regional Director of Operations #129 reviewed and verified the GDR recommendation dated 01/16/2020 was not appropriately acknowledged or completed by the physician. During an interview on 01/29/2020 at 12:35 PM, the Director of Nursing (DON) reviewed the GDR on the MRR dated 01/16/2020, and agreed the physician did not appropriately respond, and the GDR was incomplete. The DON stated, How could you know what he (physician) wanted done? He never filed the comment section or any of the check boxes to say if he agreed or disagreed. This should have been caught. The DON further explained, The facility's new procedure for processing MRR with GDR recommendation is for the pharmacy to review Resident's Medication Regimen, do their recommendations, then the provider addresses the recommendations, and then it is passed down to the Clinical Care Supervisor to ensure the orders are put through. The DON verified nursing staff have not been signing off on the actual MRR/ GDR paperwork, they (nursing) only enter the order and their name will appear on that specific order in the electronic medical record. b) Resident #38 Review of the Resident's medical record found the Resident is receiving [MEDICATION NAME] 0.5 milligrams (mg's), give 1 tablet by mouth, two times a day (BID) related to unspecified [MEDICAL CONDITION] not due to a substance or known physiological condition. Review of the nursing notes, dated 05/07/19, found an entry, (Name of physician) in facility; new orders to increase [MEDICATION NAME] to 0.5 mg. BID; [MEDICATION NAME] cream to face [MEDICAL CONDITION] QS. (Quantum satis (abbreviation q.s. or Q.S.) is a Latin term meaning the amount which is enough. It has its origins as a quantity specification in medicine and pharmacology, where a similar term quantum sufficit (as much as is sufficient) has been used (abbreviated Q.S.) Review of the facility's psychopharmacological medication monitoring logs for May 2019 continuing to January 2020 found the order: Monitor effectiveness of antipsychotic medication ([MEDICATION NAME]) as evidence by patient is free of behaviors, delusions, every day and night shift. The specific behaviors for which the antipsychotic medication, [MEDICATION NAME], was administered was not specified. The daily documentation on the MAR indicated [REDACTED]. Review of the current care plan, revised on 08/03/19, found the problem: (Name of Resident) received antipsychotic medications ([MEDICATION NAME]) related to behavior management as evidenced by wandering, attempting to provide care to other residents. On 01/29/20 at 12:33 PM, the Director of Nursing (DON) was asked to provide evidence the Resident had an increase in behaviors at the time of the increase in [MEDICATION NAME]. The DON said the resident was scratching her face at the time of the increase in medication. The DON said, We were monitoring that as a condition rather than a behavior. On 02/03/20 at 4:00 PM, the Resident's physician was interviewed regarding the increase in [MEDICATION NAME]. The physician reviewed his progress notes scanned into the medical record at the time of the increase. The physician verified no notes, written by himself, were scanned in the electronic medical record on or around 05/08/19. He said he must have written a note regarding the increase in [MEDICATION NAME] but the facility did not scan in his notes. The physician stated, Let me go see if I have any notes around that time. At approximately 4:45 PM on 02/03/20, the physician returned with a typed note for an acute visit dated 05/07/19. This progress note said the patient was scratching, picking at her face and neck, she was standing at the mirror with wash cloth scrubbing left side of her face when we walked into her room, she states, I'm just trying to get all the stuff off. The physician said the medication was increased due to daily self injurious behaviors of picking/scratching her face until she bleeds. On [DATE] at 8:02 AM, the above information was discussed with the Administrator. At the close of the survey on [DATE] at 12:30 PM, no further information was provided by the facility. d) Resident #57 A record review for Resident #57 on 01/29/20, revealed a Gradual Dose Reduction (GDR) dated 08/14/19, recommended decreasing [MEDICATION NAME] from 20 milligrams (mg) to 10 (mg). On 09/09/19 the facility Medical Director (MD) had agreed and signed to decrease [MEDICATION NAME] to 10mg. [MEDICATION NAME] was decreased to 10 mg on 09/30/19. In an interview with the Director of Nursing (DON) on 01/29/20 01:12 PM, verified the order to decrease Celaxa was not completed in a timely manner. c) Resident #98 Review of Resident #98's medication regimen found the resident is currently receiving [MEDICATION NAME] 25 milligrams (mg) three times daily, effective date was [DATE]. Further review found the resident's [MEDICATION NAME] was increased from 25 mg twice daily to three times daily on [DATE]. There was no documented behaviors to indicate the need to increase the medication. Since the increase, the resident continues to have no behaviors to indicate the continued use of the medication. Interviews with the Director of Nursing (DON) and the Nursing Home Administrator (NHA) on 02/03/20 at 12:30 pm, confirmed there was no documented behaviors for Resident #98 to indicate the increase of [MEDICATION NAME].

This resulted in the failure to ensure Resident #57 received appropriate treatment for [REDACTED].) In addition, this placed the resident at risk for developing antibiotic-resistance. This was true for one (1) of five (5) residents reviewed for unnecessary medications. Prior to surveyor intervention, the physician and facility staff, including the infection preventionist, did not identify or attempt to correct this failed practice. Due to the facility's failure to implement an antibiotic stewardship protocol the State Agency (SA) determined there was an immediate jeopardy (IJ) present for more than a limited number of residents residing in the facility. The likelihood of serious harm due to this IJ situation exists because the facility failed to recognize the resident was treated with an inappropriate antibiotic. Being treated with an antibiotic resistant to the organism identified could have resulted in the resident being septic. Due to the system failure to recognize the use of the incorrect antibiotic to treat in antibiotic resistant organism, all residents were potentially at risk for the incorrect antibiotic be prescribed with the negative outcome [MEDICAL CONDITION] being present as well. The following details the timeline of the IJ situation. --The IJ started on 01/04/20. --The facility Nursing Home Administrator (NHA) was notified of the Immediate Jeopardy (IJ) at 12:22 PM on 01/30/20. --The facility submitted their first abatement Plan of Correction (POC) at 1:55 PM on 01/30/20. --The SA requested changes to the abatement POC. --At 2:08 PM and a second abatement POC was submitted by the facility on 01/30/20. --This POC was accepted by the SA at 2:10 PM on 01/30/20. --The IJ was abated at 11:40 AM on 02/03/20 when the SA observed Resident #57's urine culture and sensitivity was received and appropriate antibiotic was ordered by facility's physician/staff. The facility's abatement plan of correction consisted of the following: 1. Resident # 57 was identified as being affected by the alleged deficient practice of failing to implement an antibiotic use protocol, including reporting laboratory results to the facility physician. This resulted in the failure to ensure Resident #57 received appropriate treatment for [REDACTED].#57 physician was notified immediately by the Director of Nurses (DON) on 1/29/2020.

The urinalysis result could not be found in the medical record. On 01/04/20 the facility received the results of the C&S. The Registered Nurse (RN) called the physician to report the results. The registered nurse obtained a verbal order from the physician for the [MEDICATION NAME] milligrams (mg) , two times a day for ten (10) days for greater than 100,000 colony count of the organism Escherichia coli (E. coli.). However, the C&S noted the organism was resistant to [MEDICATION NAME]. ([MEDICATION NAME] is the same as Cipro.) There is no indication the registered nurse reported to the physician that the organism was resistant to [MEDICATION NAME] (Cipro). The C&S report was never signed by the physician to indicate he had reviewed the report. The facility continued to administer this antibiotic for 10 days as ordered. As a result, the resident received an antibiotic that was not appropriate to treat her urinary tract infection. She continued to have signs and symptoms of urinary tract infection, specifically burning upon urination and foul-smelling urine. On 01/29/20, after surveyor intervention, the physician ordered another UA/C&S to be obtained. The physician also ordered the antibiotic [MEDICATION NAME] ([MEDICATION NAME]) intravenously for ten (10) days. The urinalysis obtained on 01/29/20 showed 2+ (large amount) of bacteria. The C&S is pending. On 01/29/20 the Director Of Nursing confirmed the Resident received the wrong antibiotic. At 9:30 AM on 1/30/20, the facility confirmed they did not implement an antibiotic use protocol which included reporting laboratory results to the facility physician. On 01/30/20, the Clinical Care Supervisor (CCS) stated she contacted the laboratory. The CCS stated no UA had been performed by the laboratory on 12/31/19, although it had been ordered. There is no indication the facility had called the laboratory to obtain the UA results prior to surveyor intervention.

SW#90 said, We talk about any concerns and, if say it is about food, I'll get someone from the kitchen to come and talk to the residents. I do not write anything down. SW#90 after looking over Resident Council meeting minutes confirmed the minutes did not reflect follow up or outcomes to issues. On 04/17/18 at 3:59 PM, Social Worker (SW#124), requested the surveyors speak with the resident council president, so that the resident council president could tell the surveyors the council's internal process for dealing with issues and concerns. SW#124 said They do it different here, they bring up issues and deal with it right then and there at the meeting. SW#124 left the room to get the Resident Council President, Resident #9. Resident #9 entered the room alone. SW#124 did not return. The Resident Council President was asked by this surveyor, If there is anything you would like to share with us? Resident #9 said, I guess. They said you wanted to know in meetings we just tell them when something is wrong, and they just write it down. When asked if they get back to the council with resolutions or outcomes involving concerns that were discussed. Resident #9 said, I guess, I don't know, we talk about things. The surveyor asked, Has there been any issues of food being served cold? The Resident Council President said, The food was cold just the other day, and one day last week, everyone in dining hall was talking about it This surveyor asked, Do they follow up when you have concerns or issues? Resident #9 said, I don't know. I guess, they talk about it. If you have an issue we tell the Activities supervisor. I've been telling her for a while I need pants, some of mine are missing, and some got ruined with bleach. I never did get them, so I told my family, and they are going to get some pants for me.

The facility also failed to provide medically related social services to assist residents and/or resident's family members responsible for making decisions in voicing and obtaining resolution to complaints and grievances. This practice had the potential to affect more than a limited number of residents. Resident identifier: #1, #4, #5, and #6. Census: 85. Findings included: Both surveyors on the investigative team conducted an interview, on 04/17/18 at 1:10 PM, with two (2) of the joint Medical Power of Attorneys (MPOAs) for Resident #1. The interview revealed they do get letters notifying them of care plan meetings. The MPOAs issues and concerns where they were not being notified in enough time to make any arrangements at work, so they could attend the care plan meetings. They said they might get a letter on Friday, for a meeting scheduled for the following Monday. They both confirmed it is just too hard to get off work and make any arrangements with such a short notice. The MPOAs revealed an incident where they arrived on the date and time the letter indicated, and as they sat waiting for the meeting, they were informed the meeting had already taken place on a different day. The MPOAs said the facility did go ahead and meet with them that day, because they refused to leave until they did. The MPOAs said they have shared these concerns about timely care plan meeting notices with staff before. Review of grievance and concern records did not reveal any of these issues or concerns had been identified, filed, and/or addressed. On 04/17/18 at 5:10 PM, an interview with Social Worker (SW#62), revealed the following. SW#62 said, I try to send out the notices for care plan meetings a month out. This surveyor requested the last care plan notices sent for Residents #4, #5, and #6. Resident #4 was deemed not to have capacity to make medical decisions due to short term memory loss, disorientation, inability to process information, caused by alcoholic [MEDICAL CONDITION], and dementia. Review of last care plan meeting notice sent for Resident #4 to resident's Medical Power of Attorney (MPOA), was dated 02/27/18, Tuesday, for a care plan meeting scheduled two (2) days later 03/01/18, Thursday. Review of last care plan meeting notice sent to Resident #5's MPOA was dated 02/19/18, Monday, for a care plan meeting scheduled for three (3) days later 02/22/18, Thursday. SW#62 said Resident #6 had capacity and SW#62 hand delivered the care plan meeting notice to Resident #6 himself when she resided at the facility. SW#62 agreed a two (2) or three (3) day notice was not a sufficient amount of time to expect MPOAs or health care surrogates to make any arrangements to attend scheduled care plan meetings. Review of Multidisciplinary care conference progress note for Resident #4, dated 03/01/18, stated under Patient/Responsible Party Invitation/Response: (name of MPOA) invited chose not to attend.

An interview with Social Worker (SW#90) revealed she does not write down resolutions or outcomes to issues discussed. SW#90 said, We talk about any concerns and, if say it is about food, I'll get someone from the kitchen to come and talk to the residents. I do not write anything down. SW#90 after looking over Resident Council meeting minutes confirmed the minutes did not reflect follow up or outcomes to issues. On 04/17/18 at 3:59 PM, Social Worker (SW#124), requested the surveyors speak with the resident council president, so that the resident council president could tell the surveyors the council's internal process for dealing with issues and concerns. The Resident Council President was asked if the facility gets back to the council with resolutions or outcomes involving concerns that were discussed. The Resident Council President answered she guessed they did, however she went on to describe a recurring problem that had been discussed about food being served cold, that was supposed to be served hot. The Resident Council President said, The food was cold just the other day, and one day last week, everyone in the dining hall was talking about it. The Resident Council President went on to say she had been telling the activities supervisor for a while she needed pants because some of hers were missing, and some got ruined with bleach. The Resident Council President said, I never did get them, so I told my family, and they are going to get some pants for me. Review of grievances did not show the Resident Council President had any issues concerning missing pants or pants ruined by bleach. This surveyor informed SW#124 the outcome of the interview with the Resident Council President, and SW#124 said that was the first she heard about Resident #9's pants and she would immediately take care of it. An interview with the Ombudsman, on 04/16/18 at 1:05PM, revealed a grievance reported to the Ombudsman concerning a Social Worker hanging up on a resident's family medical power of attorney (MPOA) while trying to get some answers concerning the care of her mother.

A quarterly MDS assessment with an Assessment Reference Date (ARD) of [DATE] was marked No or unknown for loss of five (5)% or more in the last month or loss of ten (10)% or more in the last six (6) months. When determining significant weight loss in section K of the MDS, the RAI manual instructs, Start with the resident's weight closest to 180 days ago and multiply it by .90 (or 90%). The resulting figure represents a 10% loss from the weight 180 days ago. If the resident's current weight is equal to or less than the resulting figure, the resident has lost 10% or more body weight. The current weight entered in Section K was 182 pounds. This weight (rounded per RAI manual instructions) was measured on [DATE], per Resident #395's weight records. The weight closest to 180 days preceding the [DATE] weight was measured on [DATE] and was 208 pounds (rounded per RAI manual instructions). A decrease from 208 pounds to 182 pounds indicated a significant weight loss over six (6) months, per guidance from the RAI manual. A Nutritional Risk Note written in Resident #395's electronic medical record by the facility's Dietary Services Supervisor (DSS) #122 with an effective date of [DATE] was marked for 10% or Greater Loss in 180 days.

The weight closest to 180 days preceding the [DATE] weight was measured on [DATE], per Resident #395's weight records and was 203 pounds (rounded per RAI manual instructions). A decrease from 203 pounds to 178 pounds indicated a significant weight loss over six (6) months, per guidance from the RAI manual. A Nutritional Risk Note written in Resident #395's electronic medical record by DSS #122 with an effective date of [DATE] was marked for 10% or Greater Loss in 180 days. The weight used for the current weight in this note was the same as the current weight used on the discharge MDS with an ARD of [DATE]. On [DATE] at 10:44 AM, DSS #122 was asked why she did not code either MDS assessment for significant weight loss over six (6) months when she had marked on her Nutritional Risk Notes that Resident #395 had 10% or Greater Loss using the same two (2) current weight values. She stated that the Nutritional Risk Notes did not correspond with the MDS assessments. She stated that although there was significant weight loss in a timeframe close to 180 days, she did not code this on the MDS because the current weight and comparison weight on each MDS were not exactly 180 days apart. She said she had received an email from The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) telling her that the RAI Manual had changed and she was to code significant weight loss only if it occurred exactly 180 days preceding the current weight entered in Section K of the MDS. She did not locate or provide a copy of this email for review before the end of the survey. During a phone interview on [DATE] at 12:16 PM, Corporate Registered Dietitian (RD) #133 confirmed that company policy dictates that significant weight loss over a time period of 180 days could only be coded on the MDS if the weight loss occurred at exactly 180 days preceding the current weight marked on the MDS Section K. She added that the policy was developed because there was no clarification in the RAI manual of what the word closest meant in the instructions to use the weight closest to 180 days ago. On [DATE] at 4:04 PM, the definition of close was located in Merriam-Webster's online dictionary. The word close, an adjective, means having little space between items or units or being near in time, space, effect, or degree, according to the dictionary entry. On [DATE] at 10:42 AM, the facility's Director of Nursing was informed of the issue. No further information was provided by the facility prior to the end of the survey. e) Resident #62 Observation of the resident at 1:54 PM on [DATE] found the resident appeared to have limited use of her hands and shoulders. Review of the resident's most recent Minimum Data Set (MDS), a annual, with an assessment reference date (ARD) of [DATE], found the resident was coded as having no contractures and having full use of her right dominant side. At 8:45 AM on [DATE], the Registered Nurse Assessment Coordinator (RNAC) #47 said the MDS was incorrectly coded. RNAC #47 said the MDS should be coded as the resident has limitations of her dominant right side. f) Resident #84 On [DATE], the resident was seen by the nurse practioner (NP). The NP prescribed [MEDICATION NAME], an antidepressant, for a [DIAGNOSES REDACTED]. Review of the residents admission Minimum Data Set (MDS) was a Assessment Reference Date (ARD) of [DATE], found the MDS was not coded to reflect the residents [DIAGNOSES REDACTED].

Resident #44's care plan was not developed to include how the facility would provide care to a Dementia resident. Resident #45's care plan was not was implemented for Dementia care. Residents #6 and #70's care plans were not implemented to anchor catheters. Resident identifiers: #44, #45, #6, and #70. Facility census: 97. Findings include: a) Resident #44 Review of the current care plan, revised on 07/20/17, found the problem: (Name of Resident ) has impaired cognitive function related to Dementia. The goal associated with the problem was: Patient will maintain current level of cognitive function through the review date. Interventions included: Administer Meds ([MEDICATION NAME]) as ordered Document/report to physician any changes in cognitive function, specifically changes in: decision making ability, memory, recall and general awareness, difficulty expressing self, difficulty understanding others, level of consciousness, mental status. Engage patient in simple, structured activities that avoid overly demanding tasks. A second care plan problem addressed the resident was receiving [MEDICATION NAME] for delusions and hallucinations. The goal of this care plan was: The resident will be/remain free of drug related complications including movement disorder. Interventions included: Administer medications as ordered and monitor for side effects. Encourage resident to vent feelings. Monitor/record/report to physician as needed side effects and adverse reactions From the guidance to surveyors: Residents living with dementia require specialized services and supports, (e.g., specialized activities, nutrition, and environmental modifications) that vary, based on the individual's abilities and challenges related to their condition. Dementia causes significant intellectual functioning impairments that interfere with life, including activities and relationships. People living with dementia may lose their ability to communicate, solve problems, and cope with stressors. They may also experience fear, confusion, sadness, and agitation. On 06/01/18, the resident's physician prescribed [MEDICATION NAME], an antipsychotic medication, .25 milligrams (mg's) two times a day (BID) for a [DIAGNOSES REDACTED]. The physician documented the reason for starting [MEDICATION NAME] as, Patient will not leave her room to attend activities stating, If I leave the bugs will come in my room and get in my bed, I have to keep the door shut to keep the bugs out, they sometimes knock on my window and try to get in. At 9:15 on 11/29/18, the care plan was discussed with the director of nursing (DON). The DON was unable to provide evidence the care plan addressed interventions as to how the staff were to provide care when the resident was delusional. The DON confirmed the care plan did not discuss what staff should do when the resident had delusions and hallucinations. The DON could not demonstrate how the care plan individualized this resident's dementia care needs. b) Resident #45 Record review found the resident was admitted to the facility on [DATE]. Current [DIAGNOSES REDACTED].>[MEDICAL CONDITION], Dementia, and Depression.

The goal was the patient will demonstrate effective coping skills, as evidenced by not being verbally abusive to staff while providing care through next review date. Interventions included: Analyze key times, places, circumstances, triggers and what de-escalates behavior and document. assess patients coping skills and support system. Anticipate patients needs: food, thirst, toileting needs, comfort level, body positioning, pain etc. Assess patients understanding of the situation. Allow time for the patient to express self and feelings towards the situation. When patient becomes agitated: Intervene before agitation escalates; guide away from source of distress; engage calmly in conversation if response is aggressive staff to walk calmly away, and approach later. A second care plan problem, updated on 01/29/18 found: (Name of Resident) has a behavioral problem related to yelling for help instead of utilizing the call bell system for needs and assistance. Resident will hit at staff while providing care. The goal associated with the problem was: The resident will have fewer episodes of yelling for help instead of utilizing the call bell system for requesting her needs. Interventions included: Anticipate and meet patients needs to reduce behavioral symptoms. Intervene as necessary to protect the rights and safety of others. Approach/Speak in a calm manner. Divert attention. Remove from situation and take patient to alternate location as needed. Monitor behavior episodes and attempt to determine underlying cause. Consider location time of day persons involved and situations. Document behaviors and potential causes. Report findings to attending physician and or update care plan as appropriate. Privately discuss inappropriate behaviors with patient and explain why his her behavior is unacceptable in the nursing facility. Document discussion. Report outcome to physician and or update care plan as appropriate. At 11/28/18 at 02:41 PM, the director of nursing confirmed she was unable to provide information to substantiate the above approaches were implemented as directed by the care plan. The DON confirmed the interventions were in place before the antipsychotic medication was started. The DON further confirmed the non-pharmacological interventions were not implemented before starting the antipsychotic medication. During an interview with the DON and administrator on 11/29/18 at 10:34 AM, the DON said, I have nothing else to give you. c) Resident #6 On 11/26/18 at 1:35 pm, an observation with Employee #52, Clinical Care Supervisor (CCS) found Resident #6 had an indwelling Foley Catheter. The catheter was not anchored to the resident's leg.

This was found to be true for three (3) of 23 sampled residents reviewed during the Long-Term Care Survey Process. Resident identifiers: #395, #62, #16. Facility census: 97. Findings included: a) Resident #395 On [DATE] at 1:32 PM it was noted through the screening portion of the Long-Term Care Survey Process that the code status marked on Resident #395's profile in the electronic medical record did not match the code status indicated on the care plan. The code status on the profile in the electronic medical record stated, Resuscitate (CPR); Feeding Tube Long-Term; Patient has a completed POST form dated: [DATE]; Limited Additional Interventions; IV Fluids for a trial period of no longer than: ,[DATE] days. A review of the current Physician order [REDACTED].#395's representative on [DATE], stated to Attempt Resuscitation/CPR and to provide Limited Additional Interventions, IV fluids for a trial period of no longer than ,[DATE]d(ays), and Feeding tube long-term.

However, the advance directives documented on the care plan stated, Full interventions, IV fluids for a trial period of no longer than ,[DATE] days, Feeding tube long term. According to date stamps on the care plan, this information was last revised on [DATE] by Registered Nurse Assessment Coordinator (RNAC) #47. During an interview on [DATE] at 2:20 PM, RNAC #47 acknowledged that the advance directive information on the POST form and the care plan did not match and stated she would fix the problem immediately. On [DATE] at 10:42 AM, the facility's Director of Nursing (DoN) was informed of the issue. No further information was provided by the facility prior to the end of the survey. b) Resident #62 Review of the resident current care plan, revised on [DATE], found the following problem: (Name of Resident) has an ADL (activities of daily living) self care performance deficit related to altered mental status,[MEDICAL CONDITION], dementia, [MEDICAL CONDITIONS], contracture to left arm and hand and [MEDICAL CONDITION]. Review of the most recent minimum data set (MDS) an annual, with an assessment reference date (ARD) of [DATE], found the resident was coded as having no contractures. At 8:45 AM on [DATE], the Registered Nurse Assessment Coordinator (RNAC) #47, said the care plan was incorrect. The RNAC noted the resident had contractures when she was admitted to the facility on [DATE]. When the contractures resolved the care plan was never updated to reflect the resident currently has no contractures to the left arm and hand. c) Resident #16 A reviewed of Resident #16's medical record at 9:26 a.m. on [DATE] found the following physician order [REDACTED].

This was true for one (1) resident reviewed for the care area of discharge to the community. Resident identifier: #95. Facility census: 97. Findings include: a) Resident #95 Record review at 9:20 AM on 11/27/18, found the resident was admitted to the facility on [DATE]. The resident was discharged to her home on 08/31/18. Review of the minimum data set (MDS), a 5 day Medicare Part A Stay, with an assessment reference date (ARD) of 06/19/18, found the resident participated in completing the MDS. The resident expected to be discharged to the community. When asked the question on the MDS, Do you want to talk to someone about the possibility of leaving this facility and returning to live and receive services in the community? The residents response was, yes. The Resident Assessment Instrument (RAI) manual provides the following direction when answering yes to the above question on the MDS: The goal of follow-up action is to initiate and maintain collaboration between the nursing home and the local contact agency to support the resident's expressed interest in talking to someone about the possibility of leaving the facility and returning to live and receive services in the community. This includes the nursing home supporting the resident in achieving his or her highest level of functioning and the local contact agency providing informed choices for community living and assisting the resident in transitioning to community living if it is the resident's desire. The underlying intention of the return to the community item is to insure that all individuals have the opportunity to learn about home and community based services and have an opportunity to receive long term services and supports in the least restrictive setting. CMS (Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services) has found that in many cases individuals requiring long term services, and/or their families, are unaware of community based services and supports that could adequately support individuals in community living situations. Local contact agencies (LCAs) are experts in available home and community-based service (HCBS) and can provide both the resident and the facility with valuable information. On 11/27/18 at 10:06 AM, the social worker (SW) #28 was asked for verification of information provided to the resident about all community based services and support systems. There were no notes in the electronic medical record from social services discussing discharge placement. SW #28 said referrals for medical equipment were made and the resident was referred to a Home Health agency before discharge. He was unable to provide any documentation a discussion was held with the resident to determine what other agencies were available in her community. Such as agencies who provide meals, chore services, transportation, and other in-home care and community based services that could be available.

The updated staging system developed by the National Pressure Ulcer Advisory Panel (NPUAP) includes the following definitions: Pressure Injury: A pressure injury is localized damage to the skin and underlying soft tissue usually over a bony prominence or related to a medical or other device. The injury can present as intact skin or an open ulcer and may be painful. The injury occurs as a result of intense and/or prolonged pressure or pressure in combination with shear. The tolerance of soft tissue for pressure and shear may also be affected by microclimate, nutrition, perfusion, co-morbidities and condition of the soft tissue. Stage 1 Pressure Injury: Non-blanchable [DIAGNOSES REDACTED] of intact skin Intact skin with a localized area of non-blanchable [DIAGNOSES REDACTED], which may appear differently in darkly pigmented skin. Presence of blanchable [DIAGNOSES REDACTED] or changes in sensation, temperature, or firmness may precede visual changes. Color changes do not include purple or maroon discoloration; these may indicate deep tissue pressure injury. Stage 2 Pressure Injury: Partial-thickness skin loss with exposed dermis Partial-thickness loss of skin with exposed dermis. The wound bed is viable, pink or red, moist, and may also present as an intact or ruptured serum-filled blister. Adipose (fat) is not visible and deeper tissues are not visible. Granulation tissue, slough and eschar are not present. These injuries commonly result from adverse microclimate and shear in the skin over the pelvis and shear in the heel. This stage should not be used to describe moisture associated skin damage (MASD) including incontinence associated [MEDICAL CONDITION] (IAD), intertriginous [MEDICAL CONDITION] (ITD), medical adhesive related skin injury (MARSI), or traumatic wounds (skin tears, burns, abrasions). Stage 3 Pressure Injury: Full-thickness skin loss Full-thickness loss of skin, in which adipose (fat) is visible in the ulcer and granulation tissue and epibole (rolled wound edges) are often present. Slough and/or eschar may be visible. The depth of tissue damage varies by anatomical location; areas of significant adiposity can develop deep wounds. Undermining and tunneling may occur. Fascia, muscle, tendon, ligament, cartilage and/or bone are not exposed. If slough or eschar obscures the extent of tissue loss this is an Unstageable Pressure Injury. Stage 4 Pressure Injury: Full-thickness skin and tissue loss Full-thickness skin and tissue loss with exposed or directly palpable fascia, muscle, tendon, ligament, cartilage or bone in the ulcer. Slough and/or eschar may be visible. Epibole (rolled edges), undermining and/or tunneling often occur. Depth varies by anatomical location. If slough or eschar obscures the extent of tissue loss this is an Unstageable Pressure Injury. Unstageable Pressure Injury: Obscured full-thickness skin and tissue loss Full-thickness skin and tissue loss in which the extent of tissue damage within the ulcer cannot be confirmed because it is obscured by slough or eschar. If slough or eschar is removed, a Stage 3 or Stage 4 pressure injury will be revealed. Stable eschar (i.e. dry, adherent, intact without [DIAGNOSES REDACTED] or fluctuance) on the heel or ischemic limb should not be softened or removed. Deep Tissue Pressure Injury: Persistent non-blanchable deep red, maroon or purple discoloration Intact or non-intact skin with localized area of persistent non-blanchable deep red, maroon, purple discoloration or [MEDICATION NAME] separation revealing a dark wound bed or blood filled blister. Pain and temperature change often precede skin color changes. Discoloration may appear differently in darkly pigmented skin. This injury results from intense and/or prolonged pressure and shear forces at the bone-muscle interface. The wound may evolve rapidly to reveal the actual extent of tissue injury, or may resolve without tissue loss. If necrotic tissue, subcutaneous tissue, granulation tissue, fascia, muscle or other underlying structures are visible, this indicates a full thickness pressure injury (Unstageable, Stage 3 or Stage IV.

On 03/17/18, the resident experienced a stroke resulting in weakness of his right side, severe [MEDICAL CONDITION], and hypertension. The discharge summary noted the resident was alert to situation could answer by nodding his head, or by using pictures or writing. Observations on 04/23/18 found the resident outside smoking in the designated area. This observation noted no safety issues.

The instruction manual for completing MDS assessments defines major injury as bone fractures, joint dislocations, closed head injuries with altered consciousness, subdural hematoma. The item was marked zero (0), indicating the resident did not have any major injuries. However, the resident's medical record identified the resident had a fall on 01/04/18 and was unconscious for one (1) to two (2) minutes. When interviewed on 04/26/18 at 12:33 PM, the DON concurred that a resident falling and hitting his/her head and losing consciousness would be classified as a major injury. After reviewing the resident's records, the DON agreed the MDS was inaccurately coded for falls with major injury. e) Resident #55 The resident's Minimum Data Set (MDS) assessment, with an Assessment Reference Date (ARD) of 04/13/18, indicated No or unknown for the item regarding weight loss of 5% or more in the last month or loss of 10% or more in the last 6 months.

E#13 said they used to use a rolled washcloth in her hand, but thought that therapy only used a rolled washcloth during certain hours of the day now. Review of the significant change minimum data set (MDS) with an assessment reference date (ARD) 01/12/18, found the resident assessed as having no contractures of either hand. Review of the five (5) day MDS, with ARD 04/12/18, assessed her as having no contractures of either hand. On 04/25/18 at 6:00 p.m., during an interview with the director of nursing (DON), it was discussed that the 01/12/18 significant change MDS and the five (5) day MDS of 04/12/18 contained incorrect assessments of the resident's left hand contracture.

The facility failed to develop a resident centered care plan for Resident #109 who was a double [MEDICAL CONDITION]. Resident #26's care plan was not implemented regarding providing extensive assistance with personal hygiene. A care plan was not developed for Resident #128 to include care and treatment of [REDACTED].#109, #26, and #128. Facility census: 156. Findings included: a) Resident #109 Record review found the resident was admitted to the facility on [DATE]. The resident's care plan identified a problem of, Resident is at risk for compromised peripheral circulation [MEDICAL CONDITION]/PAD ([MEDICAL CONDITION]/peripheral artery disease) [MEDICAL CONDITION]. The goal associated with the problem was, The resident will experience maximum peripheral circulation with minimal complications through next review. Interventions included, Float heels as indicated. During an interview at 10:12 a.m. on 04/24/18, the Director of Nursing (DON) confirmed the resident was a double [MEDICAL CONDITION]. She said the resident had a right above the knee amputation and a left [MEDICAL CONDITION] around (MONTH) (YEAR). The DON said, I don't know why that would be on the care plan. b) Resident #26 Review of the resident's care plan found a focus/problem of, Resident requires assistance with ADL's (activities of daily living) due to limited mobility. The interventions for the problem included: - Monitor for decline in ADL function. - Refer to rehabilitation therapy if decline in ADL's in noted. - Provide resident extensive assist for bed mobility, dressing, eating, personal hygiene and grooming. Observation of the resident at 4:45 p.m. on 04/23/18, found both the resident's left and right hands appeared to be contracted. Observation of the resident at 1:44 p.m. on 04/25/18, with Occupational Therapist (OT) #171 revealed the OT could open the resident's right hand with without difficulty. When opened, a sour odor, coming from the resident's right hand was evident. OT #171 said, I have sinuses, and could not smell the odor. When OT #171 attempted to open the resident's left hand, a strong putrid, foul smelling, sour odor, emanated from resident's hand. OT #171 did acknowledge she could smell the odor coming from the left hand. OT #171 said she would get staff to clean the resident's hands. When OT #171, discarded her gloves in the trash can in the corner of the resident's room, the foul odor from the gloves could be smelled coming out of the trash can. At 2:15 p.m. on 04/25/18, Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) #26 was observed cleaning the resident's hands and cutting the resident's fingernails. The LPN acknowledged both hands had a foul odor. At 8:10 a.m. on 04/26/18, observation of the resident with the DON found the resident still had a slight odor coming from the left hand. The DON said she was going to get an order for [REDACTED]. At 9:21 a.m. on 04/26/18, the DON confirmed the resident did not receive extensive assistance with personal hygiene as directed by the care plan. She confirmed staff were not providing care and cleaning to the resident's hands. c) Resident #128 Resident #128 received nutrition through a gastrostomy tube (G tube - a tube inserted through the abdomen into the stomach to deliver nutrition). Review of physician's orders [REDACTED]. The physician also ordered, Flush tube with 200 cc of H2O (water) q (every) 4hrs. On 04/24/18 at 10:46 AM, review of resident's care plan found it was not individualized to reflect care concerning his feeding tube. The care plan did not identify the caloric value of the enteral (tube) feeding or the mechanism of administration of the feeding. The care plan directed to flush the tube as ordered, but did not include how often and with how much water the tube was to be flushed. In an interview on 04/25/18 at 10:02 AM, the DON said the resident's care plan should be individualized for the resident and specify interventions needed to provide care based on orders and resident's needs. The DON agreed the care plan should include the caloric value of the tube feeding, the mechanism of administration, and when to flush the tube, as well as the amount of water to use to flush. On 04/26/18 at 09:23 AM, an interview with the Roving CRC (Clinical Reimbursement Coordinate responsible for developing and revising care plans), revealed Resident #128's care plan should have included the mechanism of administration, caloric value of the ordered tube feeding, and the specific way to flush the tube. The Roving CRC said the current plan would be revised to include individualized and person-specific interventions.",2020-09-01

Resident #109's care plan was not revised after a palm guard to prevent ADL (activities of daily living) decline was discontinued. Resident #80's care plan was not revised to include care/treatment for [REDACTED]. Resident #402's care plan was not revised to include the use of oxygen. Resident identifiers: #109, #80, and #402. Facility census: 156. Findings included: a) Resident #109 Review of the resident's care plan found a focus/problem of, Resident is at risk for decline in ADL's (activities of daily living) related to compromising functional ability. The goals associated with the problem were: - Resident will continue to feed self independently after set up through next review. - Resident will continue to participate in ADL care through next review. Interventions included: - Patent to wear right palm guard from 2:00 p.m. to 8:00 a.m. (MONTH) remove for hygiene. Remove and perform skin check every shift, however, (Name of Resident) is not compliant with wearing palm guard. At 10:12 a.m. on 04/24/18, the Director of Nursing (DON) confirmed the palm guard was discontinued on 03/13/18. b) Resident #80 Observation on 04/23/18 at 3:40 p.m. found this resident lying in bed. He had contractures of both hands. There were no splints, palm guards, or any type of device in place to either hand. On 04/24/18 at 10:30 a.m., observations found he held both hands firmly closed. There were no splints, palm guards, rolled washcloths, or any devices in either hand. An observation at 12:15 p.m. on 04/24/18, accompanied by Registered Nurse Employee #13 (E#13), found a white washcloth placed partially in his left hand, and a thin, smaller, yellow-colored cloth was placed partially in his right hand. When asked whether the cloths were placed in his hands later than 10:45 a.m. that morning, E#13 replied in the affirmative and said she had placed them. On 04/24/18 at 12:15 p.m., E#13 removed the cloths in preparation for inspection of the palms of both hands. When the nurse removed the cloths from his hands, a foul-smelling odor was immediately noted. When asked if the foul odor came from the cloths that were in his hands, E#13 stated I can't put my nose on them to smell them. E#13 tried to move the resident's contracted fingers so the palms could be visualized. His fingers were drawn down tightly, which made visualization of the palms inadequate. She moved the resident's right thumb about one-quarter of an inch outward, which then allowed visualization of a dry, reddened area on the skin of the fourth finger of the right hand. The thumbnail of the right hand lay directly on top of, and pressing against the described reddened area of the fourth finger. The right thumbnail was smooth, but long. It protruded beyond the flesh at the tip of the thumb a quarter of an inch. It needed trimmed. At 3:15 p.m. on 04/24/18 occupational therapist Employee #171 and wound nurse/registered nurse E#120 came to the resident's bed. A white washcloth and a thinner yellow cloth lay on his chest. The resident's palms could only be visualized partially. E#120 said they were aware of the reddened area to the right fourth finger and were monitoring and treating it. He said the right thumbnail needed trimmed. Observation on 04/25/18 at 2:25 p.m., accompanied by licensed nurse Employee #80 (E#80) found no cloths, palm guards, or any devices in either hand. When asked why there was no padding or cloth between the thumbnail and the fourth finger of the right hand to reduce pressure, she then attempted to thread the yellow cloth into the resident's right hand. She ensured it padded the skin between the right thumbnail and the reddened area to the fourth finger beneath it. The thumbnail of the right hand was still long as previously noted. The nurse agreed the thumbnail was too long. She said she had some clippers and would cut and trim the thumbnail. The nurse also attempted to place a washcloth in the palm of the resident's left hand. Review of grievances on 04/24/18 at 4:00 p.m. found one from the daughter of Resident #80 dated 02/19/18. It stated, Daughter concerned resident's hands are not being cleaned and nails aren't being clipped as often as they should be. The corrective action from Unit 3 Nursing Staff stated, Ordered hands to be cleaned daily and nails trimmed every Tuesday and Friday. Review of the (MONTH) Medication Administration Record [REDACTED]. The (MONTH) MAR indicated [REDACTED]. Staff initialed its completion on 03/06/18 and 03/09/18. The space for 03/13/18 was left blank. This too, was on the MAR for one (1) week. Review of the resident's care plan on 04/24/18 at 4:00 p.m. found an area of focus for the resident being dependent for ADL care as evidenced by multiple contractures. A goal included that he would be clean, dry and odor free through next review. The care plan was not fully developed/revised to include cleaning his hands daily and/or how to accomplish that task. The care plan was not fully developed/revised about the need for nail trimming as it related to the pressure of the thumbnail cutting into the contracted fourth finger beneath it. The care plan included an intervention for staff to use palm guards. Observations found no use of the palm guard on either hand. During an interview with the director of nursing (DON) on 04/25/18 at 6:00 p.m., she said there should not have been an odor to the hand as it was possible to clean his hands. She acknowledged that the care plan was not revised to address the special needs for cleaning his hands and trimming of his nails following the grievance filed on 02/19/18. During this interview, it was also discussed that the care plan directed staff to use a palm guard, although it was not being used. She agreed the resident's care plan should have been revised related to mobility and the positioning needs of his contracted hands, as he no longer used the palm guard. On 04/26/18 at approximately 9:30 a.m., these findings discussed shared with the administrator. No further information was provided by the facility prior to exit. c) Resident #402 On 04/16/18, Resident #402 was ordered oxygen 28% via [MEDICAL CONDITION] collar as needed. Resident #402's comprehensive care plan included an intervention for oxygen 45% via heated [MEDICAL CONDITION] collar. During an interview on 04/24/18 at 11:29 a.m., the Center Nurse Executive (CNE) agreed the intervention on Resident #402's comprehensive care plan for oxygen 45% via heated [MEDICAL CONDITION] collar was not current. The CNE agreed the intervention needed revised to oxygen 28% via [MEDICAL CONDITION] collar as needed.",2020-09-01
653,HERITAGE CENTER,515060,101-13TH STREET,HUNTINGTON,WV,25701,2018-04-26,677,G,0,1,FJW311,"**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on observations, resident interviews, and staff interview, the facility failed to provide activities of daily living (ADL) care for three (3) of nine (9) residents reviewed for ADL care. The failure to ensure dependent residents received needed care and services resulted in actual harm for Resident #26. Resident #26 did not receive care needed care for her hands, resulting in a Stage II pressure area on her palm and pain when attempts were made to open her hand. The facility's failure to ensure Resident #119 received needed skin care and prompt incontinence care were determined to result in actual harm to this resident as he developed pressure ulcers and painful excoriation. Resident #80 needed hygienic measures for hand contractures. Resident identifiers: #80, #26, and #119. Facility census: 156. Findings included: a) Resident #26 Observation of the resident at 4:45 p.m. on 04/23/18, found the resident's left and right hands appeared contracted. The resident had no splinting devices in use. Review of the resident's current care plan found the following focus/problem: - Resident requires assistance with ADL's (activities of daily living) due to limited mobility. The goal associated with the problem: - Residents/Patients ADL care needs will be anticipated and met throughout the next review period. Interventions included: - Monitor for decline in ADL function. Refer to rehabilitation therapy and decline in ADL's is noted. Provide resident extensive assist for bed mobility, dressing, eating, personal hygiene, and grooming. While investigating to determine why the resident had possible contractures without splinting devices the following observations were made: - Observation of the resident at 1:44 p.m. on 04/25/18, with OT #171 revealed, OT #171 was able to open the resident's right hand with without difficulty. When opened, a sour odor, coming from the resident's right hand was evident. OT #171 said she had sinuses and could not smell the odor. When OT #171 attempted to open the resident's left hand, a strong putrid, foul smelling, sour odor, emanated from the hand. OT #171 acknowledged she could smell the odor coming from the left hand. OT #171 said she would get staff to clean the resident's hands. OT #171 was unable to fully extend all the fingers of the resident's left hand. The ring finger was pressed into the palm of the resident's hand. It was evident the finger nailwas cutting into the palm of the resident's hand. OT #171 said, She was never like this when we finished with therapy services in January. When OT #171, discarded her gloves in the trash can in the corner of the resident's room, the foul odor from the gloves could be smelled coming out of the trash can. Throughout the observation, the resident said, Ouch, that hurts, that hurts, when OT #171 was attempting to work with the resident's left hand. The resident also said, I need my fingernails cut, the doctor said so. The resident nails were long jagged and unclean. These observations were discussed with the director of nursing (DON) at 2:00 p.m. on 04/25/18. The DON said she would have a nurse soak the resident's hand in warm water, assess the condition of the hands and cut the fingernails. At 2:15 p.m. on 04/25/18, Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) #26 was observed cleaning the resident's hands and cutting the fingernails. LPN #26 acknowledged the resident had a foul smelling odor coming from both hands. LPN #26 said she thought she could see a, break in the skin, on the palm of the left hand. She said, I won't know for sure until I soak the hand and get it to open a little more. At 3:15 p.m. on 04/25/18, the director of rehabilitation services, Employee #170 said the resident was screened for services on 04/19/18. [NAME] #170 said, When we screen a resident we can't touch them. If the patient can't tell us what is wrong or the staff don't tell us we don't know. She said the resident didn't want any therapy but did agree to a speech evaluation. E#170 said staff would not have looked at the resident's hands. At 3:17 p.m. on 4/25/18, the information received from E#170 was discussed with the DON. The DON said she was unaware a therapist could not touch a resident during a screen. At 8:10 a.m. on 04/26/18, observation with the DON found the DON confirmed the resident had a Stage II pressure area on the left hand, just under the ring finger on the palm of left hand. The DON acknowledged the resident still had a slight sour odor coming from the left hand. At 8:35 a.m. on 004/26/18, the DON said, I am taking care of this, calling the doctor, the residents family and will get an order for [REDACTED]. The DON acknowledged staff had not been cleaning the resident's hands as needed to prevent the odor. The DON said the skin check, completed by the nursing staff on 04/20/18, should have caught the problem. The DON was unable to provide any information to support the facility was aware of the foul odor of the resident's hands, the left hand contracture, or the development of a Stage II pressure area on the palm of the resident's left hand, prior to surveyor intervention. The failure to provide extensive assistance for personal hygiene, (ADL care and cleaning) of the residents hands lead to the foul odor coming from both the left and right hands. Had ADL care been provided, the facility may have recognized the inability of the resident to voluntarily open both the left and right hands. Had the facility addressed this decline, the contracture of the left hand may have been prevented. The failure to address the resident's contracture of the left hand lead contributed to the development of a Stage II pressure ulcer to the left hand. This was determined to constitute actual harm to this resident. b) Resident #119 During the screening for the initial pool of the Long-Term Care Survey Process, an interview on 04/23/18 at 11:37 AM with Resident #119 revealed he had a pressure ulcer on his lower buttock from sitting in urine for 30 minutes or longer. He went on to explain he could not walk, and tried to use a urinal, but sometimes did not get all the urine in the urinal. He stated there was not enough staff last night - one aide was with two (2) nurse aides in training. According to the resident, it takes more than an hour for staff to answer a call light. He said he had been told his aide was on break, and the aides also told him they were short staffed. This was mostly on the 3:00 PM to 11:00 PM or the 11:00 PM to 7:00 AM shifts. On 04/25/18 at 9:15 AM, Resident #119 was emotional and tearful saying that he was chewed out by the Nurse Aide #96 for calling the nurses' station with his cell phone. He stated she told him to only use his call light, that was what it was for, and not to call the nurses' station again. He said, NA #96 told him that he was not the only one on this floor and he just needed to wait his turn. He said he responded by telling her he used the call light and had been waiting for more than 30 minutes before he called the nurses' station with his cell phone, because his skin was on fire from sitting in urine. The resident told this to the surveyor, Wound Care Nurse #120, and Nurse Aide #84. On 04/25/18 at 9:15 AM, Wound Care Nurse #120 agreed to do a complete skin assessment with the surveyor present. A complete skin audit by Wound Care Nurse #120 found: - 1. Pressure Ulcer Stage II on Coccyx - 2. Pressure Ulcer Stage II on right ear - 3. Excoriated areas bilateral groin, under both breast, bilateral abdominal folds, bilateral upper outer thighs and bilateral calf's. - 4. Reddened area to the right great toe, second and third toes, right heel. The failure of the facility to ensure needed skin care and prompt incontinence care were determined to result in actual harm to this resident. During an interview on 04/25/18 at 9:45 AM, when informed of findings, the DoN stated she had heard from Wound Care Nurse #120 and was addressing the problem. On 04/25/18 at 1:10 PM, Resident #119 said that he was still upset over the NA #96 fussing at him that morning and it was not the first time he has had to wait for over 30 minutes for assistance. He went on to say he has called his wife many times to have her call the facility to ask them to help him. c) Resident #80 Observation on 04/23/18 at 3:40 p.m. found this resident lying in bed. He had contractures of both hands. There were no splints, palm guards, or any type of device in place to either hand. Observations on 04/24/18 at 10:30 a.m., again found he had no splints, palm guards, rolled washcloths or any devices in either hand. He held both hands firmly closed. At 12:15 p.m. on 04/24/18, while accompanied by Registered Nurse Employee #13 (E#13), a white washcloth was found placed partially in his left hand, and a thin, smaller, yellow-colored cloth was was found placed partially in his right hand. When asked whether these cloths were placed in his hands later than 10:45 a.m. that morning, E#13 replied in the affirmative and said she had placed them. On 04/24/18 at 12:15 p.m., E#13 removed the cloths in preparation for inspection of the palms of both hands. When the nurse removed the cloths from his hands, a foul smell was immediately noted. When asked if that foul odor came from the cloths having been placed in his hands, E#13 stated I can't put my nose on them to smell them. E#13 tried to move the contracted fingers so the palms could be visualized. His fingers were drawn down tightly, which made visualization of the palms inadequate. She moved the right thumb about one-quarter of an inch outward, which then allowed visualization of a dry, reddened area on the skin of the fourth finger of the right hand. The thumbnail of the right hand lay directly on top of, and pressing against, the reddened area of the fourth finger beneath it.

At 3:15 p.m. on 04/24/18, Occupational Therapist Employee #171 and wound nurse/registered nurse E#120 came to the resident's bed. A white wash cloth and a thinner, yellow cloth lay on his chest. The palms could only slightly be visualized. E#120 said they were aware of the reddened area to the right fourth finger and were monitoring and treating it. He said the right thumbnail needed trimmed. Review of a grievance on 04/24/18 at 4:00 p.m. found one from the daughter of Resident #80 dated 02/19/18. It stated Daughter concerned resident's hands are not being cleaned and nails aren't being clipped as often as they should be. The corrective action from Unit 3 Nursing Staff stated Ordered hands to be cleaned daily and nails trimmed every Tuesday and Friday. Review of the (MONTH) Medication Administration Record [REDACTED]. This was a one (1) week audit. The (MONTH) MAR indicated [REDACTED]. Staff initialed its completion on 03/06/18 and 03/09/18. The space for 03/13/18 was left blank. This, too, was on the MAR for one (1) week. Review of the resident's care plan on 04/24/18 at 4:00 p.m., found an area of focus for the resident being dependent for ADL care as evidenced by multiple contractures. A goal included that he would be clean, dry and odor free through next review. The care plan was not fully developed to include cleaning his hands daily and/or how to accomplish that task, or anything about nail trimming. Observation on 04/25/18 at 2:25 p.m., accompanied by licensed nurse Employee #80 (E#80) found no cloths, palm guards or any devices in either hand. When asked why there was no padding or cloth between the thumbnail and the fourth finger of the right hand to reduce pressure, she threaded the yellow cloth into the resident's right hand. She ensured it padded the skin between the right thumbnail and the reddened area to the fourth finger beneath it. The nurse agreed the right thumbnail was too long. She said she had some clippers and would cut and trim that offending right thumbnail. The nurse also placed a washcloth in the palm of the left hand. During an interview on 04/25/18 at 6:00 p.m. , the director of nursing said there should not have been an odor from the palms of his hands as it was possible for staff to clean his hands. She was informed that the nurse on 04/24/18 at 3:15 p.m. stated his right thumbnail was too long, and that they were monitoring and treating the reddened skin area to the right fourth finger upon which the right thumb and thumbnail rested. She was also informed that the following day on 04/25/18 at 2:25 p.m. the right thumbnail was still long and in need of trimming. The nurse on duty at 2:25 p.m. on 04/25/18 said she had clippers and would trim the thumb nail right away. A copy of the grievance form dated 02/19/18 conveyed the resident's daughter's concern that his hands were not cleaned and his nails not clipped as often as they should be. The DON acknowledged the grievance. No further information was provided prior to exit. On 04/26/18 at approximately 9:30 a.m., these findings were discussed with the administrator.

Resident #147 did not receive insulin as directed by the physician which lead to harm due to critically elevated blood glucose levels, high sodium levels, and acute kidney injury. Additionally, there was no evidence of an assessment of the resident's mental and physical status when his blood sugars were over 600. Furthermore, the resident's antibiotic was stopped prior to completion of the course ordered by the physician, but there was no evidence the physician had ordered it discontinued. Resident identifier: #147. Facility census: 156. Findings included: a) Resident #147 1. An interview with the resident and his daughter at 11:19 a.m. on 04/23/18, found the daughter was very worried about the medical condition of her father. The daughter said her father had been very confused, his blood sugars were high, he had an incontinent episode, and he had a cough. She said her father was recently diagnosed with [REDACTED]. She was fearful he would die if something was not done. She said she talked to someone of Saturday, a nurse she thought, who said she would have to wait until Monday to see the doctor. She said the facility did get a chest x-ray, but she did not think this would tell them if he was having other problems. She believed her father needed to have some blood work and hoping that was going to happen that day. Record review found a [AGE] year-old male resident admitted to the facility on [DATE]. His hospital discharge summary noted the resident was hosptalized on [DATE]. He was treated for [REDACTED]. ANCA (associated small-vessel vasculitis) are autoantibodies produced by a person's immune system that mistakenly attack proteins within the person's [DIAGNOSES REDACTED]s (white blood cell types). The most common subsets of ANCA are those that target the proteins myeloperoxidase (MPO) and proteinase.) The resident was discharged from the hospital to the nursing home on 03/28/18.

At 8:30 a.m. on 04/23/18, the resident's blood glucose was still 511. At 9:40 a.m. on 04/23/18 another 15 units of Humalog was administered, according to the MAR. Nursing staff contacted the physician for this order. A nursing note written at 12:06 a.m. on 04/23/18, noted the physician was contacted and another 20 units of [MEDICATION NAME] was given and the physician said to give the [MEDICATION NAME] that is due tonight. The MAR indicated [REDACTED] There were no nursing notes describing the resident's condition when his blood glucose was above 600; such as was the resident level of consciousness affected, was he thirsty, tired, was his coordination affected, etc. The resident was seen by the physician on 04/23/18 at 7:35 p.m. The plan ordered by the physician: Stat (immediately) labs came back. WBC (white blood cell count) is normal. But BUN/CR (blood urea nitrogen/creatinine ratio) significantly increased from prior. K (potassium) is 5.7. Patient in AKI (acute kidney injury), ordered IVF (intravenous fluids), hold [MEDICATION NAME] and [MEDICATION NAME], give [MEDICATION NAME] for [MEDICAL CONDITION] (high potassium). Recheck BMP (basic metabolic panel) in morning, the low sodium on BMP is due to high BG of over 700. The BG has been checked since then and it is down to 200's no longer in 700's. At 8:40 a.m. on 04/25/18, the director of nursing (DON) was interviewed regarding Resident #147. Before the interview began, the DON said, I already know a medication error was made regarding the physician's orders [REDACTED]. The DON verified the [MEDICATION NAME] was to be decreased to 20 units due to the resident's low blood glucose level of 50 obtained on 04/20/18. She said the new order was transcribed to the MAR, but was then discontinued. The resident never received any [MEDICATION NAME] and the resident's blood glucose levels were above 600, 3 days after the medication was stopped when it should have been reduced. The DON verified the blood glucose level was not obtained after the [MEDICATION NAME] was administered at 11:00 a.m. on 04/24/18. The DON said she had already disciplined the staff involved in the medication errors. The DON confirmed the medication error resulted in treatments that could have been prevented if staff had followed the physician's orders [REDACTED]. The failure to administer insulin as ordered by the physician and to monitor the resident's blood glucose when indicated resulted in actual harm to this resident. 2. On 04/02/18 the physician ordered [MEDICATION NAME] 1 gram IM (intramuscular) daily for the next 4 days, pending the results of the urinalysis. Review of the resident's Medication Administration Record [REDACTED]. There was no explanation why the medication was discontinued, and no evidence the physician was contacted and approved the discontinuation. At 9:21 a.m. on 04/25/18, the DON said the results of the urinalysis showed the resident did not have a urinary tract infection. She said the nursing staff should have documented the physician was contacted and the staff should have obtained an order to discontinue the [MEDICATION NAME].",2020-09-01

Resident #119, a dependent individual, who was known to be at risk of pressure ulcer development, did not receive incontinence care in a timely manner and did not have accurate assessments of his skin condition. Resident #26, also dependent and known to be at risk of pressure ulcer development, did not receive interventions to prevent a pressure ulcer from developing on her hand. The findings for these two (2) residents led to a determination that both had experienced actual harm as a result of the facility's failure to provide needed care and services. Resident Identifiers: #119 and #26. Facility census:156. Findings included: a) Resident #119 During the Long-Term Care Survey Process screening, on 04/23/18 at 11:37 AM, Resident #119 stated he had a pressure ulcer on his buttock from sitting in urine for 30 minutes or longer. He explained he tried to use a urinal, but sometimes he did not get all the urine in the urinal. Medical record review identified he scored 15 on the Brief Interview for Mental Status, indicating he was cognitively intact. His [DIAGNOSES REDACTED]. There was no mention of current pressure ulcers found in the resident's record. Review of Skin Check Performed Sheets dated from 1/27/18 to 4/23/18 found the following documentation: - 01/27/18 - No Skin Injury/Wounds by Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) #172 - 02/04/18 - No Skin Injury/Wounds by LPN #92 - 02/10/18 - No Skin Injury/Wounds by LPN #172 - 02/17/18 - No Skin Injury/Wounds by LPN #92 - 02/24/18 - No Skin Injury/Wounds by LPN #172 - 03/03/18 - No Skin Injury/Wounds by LPN #92 - 03/10/18 - No Skin Injury/Wounds by LPN #172 - 03/17/18 - Yes Skin Injury/Wounds identified No New Skin Injury/Wounds Type of Skin Injury/Wounds Moisture Associated Skin Damage by Registered Nurse (RN) #4 - 03/24/18 - No Skin Injury/Wounds by LPN #172 - 04/02/18 - No Skin Injury/Wounds by RN # 4 - 04/07/18 - No Skin Injury/Wounds by LPN # 33 - 04/23/18 - No Skin Injury/Wounds by LPN # 92 Review of the resident's annual minimum data set (MDS) assessment, with an assessment reference date or 03/28/18 found the resident was identified as being at risk for pressure ulcer development, that he was frequently incontinent of bowel and bladder, and required the extensive assistance of 2 or more staff for personal hygiene. The assessment had triggered for pressure ulcers and was marked to indicate it would be care planned. On 04/25/18 at 9:15 AM, Wound Care Nurse #120 agreed to do a complete skin assessment with the surveyor observing. With the resident's permission, Wound Care Nurse #120 pulled the sheets back and found a very large red excoriation on the resident's upper outer thighs. Further examination identified broken skin under his scrotum and on his coccyx. The resident's tee shirt was saturated with urine up his back and had small amount of stool on the bottom of the shirt. According to the resident, Nurse Aide (NA) #96 had changed him earlier, therefore the nurse aide left him like this. Wound Care Nurse #120 removed the tee shirt. Wound Care Nurse #120 asked Resident #119 how long had his skin been in that condition? The resident responded a year, that it had started after being on this floor for a week. During an interview on 04/25/18 at 9:35 AM, Wound Care Nurse #120 stated he was just mortified by what was just discovered, referring to the condition of Resident #119's skin. He went on to say he had no excuse and they had failed this resident. On 04/25/18 at 9:45 AM, when informed of the findings for Resident #119, the director of nursing (DoN) stated she was aware of the problem and was working on a plan of correction. The results of the complete skin audit provided by Wound Care Nurse #120 were: 1. Pressure Ulcer Stage II on Coccyx 2. Pressure Ulcer Stage II on right ear 3. Excoriated areas bilateral groin, under both breast, bilateral abdominal folds, bilateral upper outer thighs and bilateral calf's. 4. Reddened area to the right great toe, second and third toes, right heel. Resident #119's care plan, initiated on 04/03/17, identified the resident had impaired skin integrity due to his psoriasis and Moisture Associated Skin Damage (MASD). A history of pressure ulcers was noted. The interventions for this problem included: - Monitor skin for signs/symptoms of skin breakdown i.e. - Observe skin condition with ADL care daily and report abnormalities - Skin check per policy - Weekly skin assessment by license nurse - Weekly wound assessment The facility's policy, NSG236 Skin Integrity Management, Effective date 07/01/01, Revision date 11/28/16, included staff were to continually observe and monitor for skin changes and implement revisions to the plan of care. The purpose was to provide safe and effective care to prevent the occurrence of pressure ulcers and promote healing of all wounds. The failure of the facility to assess and monitor this resident who was identified as at risk of pressure ulcer development, had triggered pressure ulcers on his annual MDS, had multiple risk factors for pressure ulcer development, and failure to follow/implement its own policy, resulted in actual harm to this resident. b) Resident #26 Observation of the resident at 4:45 p.m. on 04/23/18, found both the resident's left and right hands appeared contracted. The resident had no splinting devices in use. When asked if the resident could open her hands, the resident's nurse aide (NA), NA #149, said, she could open one hand but, I would probably break her fingers if I tried to open the other hand, and I'm not going to do that. NA #149 said the resident's left hand would not open. She was not sure how long the resident had been unable to open her left hand. Review of the medical record at 11:30 a.m. on 04/25/18, found the resident had no orders for any splinting devices to either hand. The most recent minimum data set (MDS), a quarterly, with an assessment reference date (ARD) of 01/25/18, noted the resident did not have any contractures and did not have any pressure areas. Review of the current care plan found no reference to any contractures or pressure wounds. At 1:41 p.m. on 04/25/18, the occupational therapist (OT), OT #171 said the resident had received occupation therapy and was discharged from OT on 01/26/18. When we discharged her, she didn't have any hand contractures, she didn't need any interventions. Observation of the resident at 1:44 p.m. on 04/25/18, with OT #171 revealed the following: OT #171 was able to open the residents right hand with without difficulty. When opened, a sour odor, coming from the right hand was evident. OT #171 said she had sinuses and couldn't smell the odor. When OT #171 attempted to open the left hand, a strong putrid, foul smelling, sour odor, radiated from the left hand. OT #171 did acknowledge she could smell the odor coming from the left hand. OT #171 said she would get staff to clean the resident's hands. OT #171 was unable to fully extend all the fingers of the left hand. The ring finger was pressed into the palm of the resident's hand. It was evident the fingernail was cutting into the palm of the resident's hand. OT #171 said, She was never like this when we finished with therapy services in January. When OT #171, discarded her gloves in the trash can in the corner of the resident's room, the foul odor from the gloves could be smelled coming out of the trash can. Throughout the observation, the resident said, Ouch, that hurts, that hurts, when OT #171 was attempting to work with the resident's left hand. The resident also said, I need my fingernails cut, the doctor said so. The resident nails were long jagged and unclean. These observations were discussed with the director of nursing (DON) at 2:00 p.m. on 04/25/18. The DON said she would have a nurse soak the resident's hands and assess the resident to determine if the resident has a pressure ulcer to the palm of her left hand. Further review of the electronic medical record found a physician's progress note, dated 04/16/18. The physician did not note the resident's contracture of her left hand or any pressure ulcers. A skin check by facility nursing staff on 04/13/18 at 4:00 p.m. had no skin injury/wounds noted. At 2:15 p.m. on 04/25/18, Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) #26 was observed cleaning the resident's hands and cutting her fingernails. The nurse acknowledged there was a foul odor coming from both of the resident's hands. LPN #26 said she thought she could see a, break in the skin, on the palm of the left hand. She said, I won't know for sure until I soak the hand and get it to open a little more. At 8:10 a.m. on 04/26/18, during an observation of the resident with the DON, she confirmed the resident had a Stage II pressure on her left hand, just under the ring finger on the palm of her left hand. The DON further confirmed the facility was unaware of the pressure ulcer prior to surveyor intervention. At 8:35 a.m. on 04/26/18, the DON said, I am taking care of this, calling the doctor, the residents family and will get an order for [REDACTED]., probably at least a month or longer, it would be hard to say. The DON said she was unaware of the situation and had no evidence to present to verify any interventions were implemented, such as even using a rolled washcloth in the resident's hands to prevent the fingernails from digging into the skin which lead to the development of the resident's pressure ulcer. The DON confirmed the skin check, completed by the nursing staff on 04/20/18, should have caught the problem. Review of the resident's minimum data set (MDS) assessments, found this [AGE] year-old female resident was assessed as at risk of pressure ulcer development and as requiring extensive assistance for activities of daily living since admitted on [DATE]. The resident's most recent assessment, a quarterly MDS with an assessment reference date of 01/25/18, identified she weighed 99 pounds and had functional impairment of both upper extremities. The facility failed to ensure this dependent resident, who was known to be at risk for pressure ulcers and had limitations in the use of her upper extremities, received needed care and services to prevent an avoidable Stage II pressure ulcer in her left hand. These finding led to a determination actual harm.",2020-09-01

The facility failed to recognize Resident #26's range of motion in her hands was declining. The facility failed to provide interventions (services, care and equipment) for Resident #26 to address the decrease in range of motion. The failure to provide care lead to the development of a pressure ulcer to the palm of the Resident's left hand and pain when attempts were made to open her hand. This was determined to constitute actual harm for Resident #26. In addition, the facility failed to provide care for Resident #99 and Resident #80 who had decreases in range of motion. Resident #62 did not receive restorative nursing services as ordered by the physician. Resident identifiers: #26, #80, #99, and #62. Facility census: 156. Findings included: a) Resident #26 Observation of the resident at 4:45 p.m. on 04/23/18, found the resident's left and right hands appeared contracted. The resident had no splinting devices in use. When asked whether the resident could open her hands, the resident's nurse aide (NA), NA #149, said, I can open one hand, but I would probably break her fingers if I tried to open the other hand, and I'm not going to do that.

The most recent minimum data set (MDS), a quarterly assessment, with an assessment reference date (ARD) of 01/25/18, noted the resident did not have any contractures, nor did she have any pressure areas identified. Review of the resident's current care plan found no reference to any contractures. The care plan did include a focus/problem of, Resident requires assistance with ADL's (activities of daily living) due to limited mobility. The goal associated with the problem was, Residents/Patients ADL care needs will be anticipated and met throughout the next review period. Interventions included: - Monitor for decline in ADL function. Refer to rehabilitation therapy and decline in ADL's is noted. - Provide resident extensive assist for bed mobility, dressing, eating, personal hygiene, and grooming. At 1:41 p.m. on 04/25/18, the occupational therapist, OT #171, said the resident had received occupation therapy and was discharged from OT on 01/26/18.

The DON said she would have a nurse soak the resident's hands and assess the resident to determine if the resident had a pressure ulcer to the palm of her left hand. Further review of the electronic medical record found a physician's progress note dated 04/16/18. The physician did not address any issues regarding the resident's hands. The physician addressed only mild contracture of the resident's legs. The physician's plan: She is at last stage of life, will consider referring to hospice if MPOA (medical power of attorney) agrees. The physician did not note any contractures of the resident's left hand or any pressure ulcers. The skin check performed by facility nursing staff on 04/13/18 at 4:00 p.m. had no skin injuries/wounds noted. Observations noted Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) #26 cleaning the resident's hands and cutting her fingernails at 2:15 p.m. on 04/25/18. LPN #26 acknowledged there was foul smelling odor coming from both of the resident's hands. LPN #26 said she thought she could see a, break in the skin, on the palm of the left hand. She said, I won't know for sure until I soak the hand and get it to open a little more. At 3:15 p.m. on 04/25/18, Employee #170, the director of rehabilitation services, said the resident was screened for services on 04/19/18. [NAME] #170 said, When we screen a resident we can't touch them. If the patient can't tell us what is wrong or the staff don't tell us we don't know. She said the resident did not want any therapy, but did agree to a speech evaluation. [NAME] #170 said the resident had no contractures of her hands when discharged from OT services on 01/26/18. The therapy screen dated 04/19/18 noted, Resident per staff (symbol for increased) confusion/resident is not out of bed compliance due to medical decline per resident does not want any therapy. However did agree to a ST (speech therapy) evaluation or further screen. At 3:17 p.m. on 4/25/18, when these findings were discussed with the DON, she said she was unaware a therapist could not touch a resident during a screen. At 8:10 a.m. on 04/26/18, during an observation of the resident with the DON, she confirmed the resident had a Stage II pressure on the left hand, just under the ring finger on the palm of the hand. The DON further confirmed the facility was unaware of the pressure ulcer prior to surveyor intervention. At 8:35 a.m. on 004/26/18, the DON said, I am taking care of this, calling the doctor, the resident's family and will get an order for [REDACTED]. When asked how long she would estimate the resident's left hand had been contracted, she replied, I don't know, probably at least a month or longer, it would be hard to say. The DON said she was unaware of the situation and had no evidence to present to verify any interventions were implemented, such as even using a rolled washcloth in the resident's hands to prevent the fingernails from digging into the skin which lead to the development of the resident's pressure ulcer. The DON confirmed the skin check, completed by the nursing staff on 04/20/18, should have caught the problem. The DON was unable to provide any verification the facility addressed the resident's contracted left hand before surveyor intervention. The facility failed to ensure the resident received ADL care which was evidenced by the foul odor of the resident's hands. Had ADL care been provided to the resident's hands, staff would have identified the developing contracture of the resident's left hand. The failure to address the developing contracture resulted in the resident experiencing pain when care was provided after the hand contracted, and resulted in a Stage II pressure ulcer. The failure to provide needed care for this resident constituted actual harm. b) Resident #80 Observation on 04/23/18 at 3:40 p.m. found this resident lying in bed. He had contractures of both hands. There were no splints, palm guards, or any type of device in place to either hand. Observation on 04/24/18 at 10:30 a.m. found him resting in bed with his eyes closed. No splints, rolled wash cloths, or palm guards were in place. He held both hands firmly closed. At 12:15 p.m. on 04/24/18, accompanied by E#13, observations noted a white washcloth placed partially in his left hand, and a thin, smaller, yellow-colored cloth was placed partially in his right hand. When asked whether the cloths were placed in the resident's hands after 10:45 a.m., E#13 replied in the affirmative and said she had placed them. E#13 tried to move the resident's contracted fingers so the palms could be visualized. His fingers were drawn down tightly, which made visualization of the palm inadequate. E13 could move the resident's right thumb about one-quarter of an inch outward, allowing visualization of a dry, reddened area on the skin of the fourth finger of the right hand. The thumbnail of the right hand lay directly on top of, and was pressing against the reddened area of the fourth finger. The right thumbnail was smooth, but long, protruding beyond the flesh of the tip of the thumb. At 3:15 p.m. on 04/24/18, E#171 and wound nurse/registered nurse E#120 went to the resident's bed. A white wash cloth and a thinner yellow cloth lay on his chest. E#120 said they were aware of the reddened area on the resident's right fourth finger and were monitoring and treating it. He said the right thumbnail needed trimmed. Review of the medical record on 04/24/18 found a physician's order dated 11/22/17 to place a clean wash cloth in the right palm (to separate the right thumb and right fourth finger) every shift related to contracture of muscle of the right hand. Review of the resident's care plan found an intervention on page 3 to use bilateral palm guards between 10:00 a.m. and 2:00 p.m. daily, and they could be removed for hygiene. On page 32, a problem of actual skin breakdown to the right fourth finger was noted. Interventions included to observe skin condition with activities of daily living (ADL) care daily and report abnormalities, provide wound treatment as ordered, and weekly skin assessments by the licensed nurse. The (MONTH) (YEAR) treatment administration record (TAR) contained a directive to place a clean washcloth in the resident's right palm (to separate the right thumb and right fourth finger) every shift related to contracture of the muscle. It contained another directive to apply no sting skin prep to the right fourth finger twice daily and prn (as needed). Observation on 04/25/18 at 9:10 AM found no cloths, palm guards, or any devices in either hand. Observation on 04/25/18 at 2:25 p.m., accompanied by licensed nurse Employee #80 (E#80) found no cloths, palm guards or any devices in either hand. When asked why there was no padding or cloth to the right hand, E#80 threaded the yellow cloth to the resident's right hand and ensured it padded the skin between the right thumbnail and the reddened area to the fourth finger of the right hand beneath it. The thumbnail of the right hand protruded about one-quarter of an inch beyond the top of the skin on the right thumb, and gouged into the fourth finger beneath. E#80 agreed the thumbnail was too long. She obtained some clippers, and said she would trim that offending right thumbnail right then. On 04/25/18 at 6:00 p.m., the director of nurse was informed that the nurse on 04/24/18 at 3:15 p.m. stated his right thumbnail was too long, and spoke awareness that they were monitoring and treating the reddened skin area to the right fourth finger upon which the right thumb and thumbnail rested upon. She was also informed that the following day, on 04/25/18 at 2:25 p.m., the right thumbnail was still long and in need of trimming. She was informed that although the physician ordered, and the TAR directed to place a clean washcloth in the right palm to separate the right thumb and right fourth finger, a cloth was not found in place during observations on 04/23/18, 04/24/18, and 04/25/18. The DON said the care plan should have been changed to delete the palm guard, as there is no physician's order for a palm guard. She said the physician's orders and the TAR orders should have been followed for the clean wash cloth in the right palm every shift related to contracture of the muscle. These findings were shared with the administrator on 04/26/18 at approximately 9:30 a.m. No further information was provided by the facility prior to exit. c) Resident #99 Observation on 04/23/18 at 12:00 p.m. noted the resident's left wrist was contracted, and her fingers curled into the palm of her hand. She wore no splint or device of any type to the left hand. Observation on 04/24/18 at 10:45 a.m., accompanied by registered nurse Employee #13 (E#13), found the resident wore no palm guard, had no rolled washcloth or any device for her left hand. E#13 gently stretched the fingers of the resident's left hand so the palm was visible. The resident had a partial thickness skin loss in the fold between the thumb and index finger of the left hand, that the nurse said she was unaware of this skin breakdown between the thumb and index finger of the left hand prior to this observation. Upon inquiry, the resident said she used to use a palm guard to the left hand, but thought someone took it. She said she would use it if she had it. When asked whether the resident ever used a rolled washcloth, or why she was not using a palm guard, E#13 said she thought the palm guard was discontinued. She said they used to place a rolled washcloth in the resident's left hand, but thought that therapy only used a rolled washcloth for certain hours of the day now. When asked whether she had used the rolled washcloth that day or the day before, the resident replied in the negative. During an interview with occupational therapist Employee #171 on 04/24/18 at 2:30 p.m., she said the resident's non-compliance over the years contributed to the contracture of her left hand. She said the resident was not agreeable with using the palm protector. She said the resident was agreeable with the rolled washcloth daily that could be removed for hygiene. She said the resident had it available night and day to help with skin integrity and to prevent worsening of the contracture. Medical record review on 04/24/18 also found that the (MONTH) treatment administration record (TAR) contained a directive to use the hand roll to the left hand from 8:00 a.m. to 12:00 noon daily. Nursing staff initialed its use 03/01/18 daily until 03/21/18 when she was admitted to the hospital. The (MONTH) (YEAR) TAR, reviewed on 04/24/18, contained no mention of any type of treatment modality for the contracted left hand. The resident's current care plan directed the resident have a hand roll in her left hand from 8:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. daily, and that it could be removed for skin checks and hygiene. This plan, initially created 11/08/17 and revised 04/05/18, included a goal for the resident to have no signs of skin breakdown through the next review. Observation on 04/25/18 at 9:00 a.m. found her asleep with no hand roll in her left hand. On 04/25/18 at noon the resident was awake and said she had not had the rolled cloth in her hand that day at any time. On 04/25/18 at 6:00 p.m., these findings were shared with the director of nursing (DON).

This was evident for one (1) of one (1) residents reviewed for urinary tract infections. Resident identifier: #99. Facility census: 156. Findings include: a) Resident #99 Observations on 04/24/18 at 11: 39 AM, noted nurse aide (NA) gathering supplies and providing incontinence care for this resident. NA Employee #86 (E#86) placed several clean, folded washcloths directly into the sink basin, shared with two (2) other residents in this room. She ran warm water from the faucet over them until they were completely submerged. E#86 squeezed out the excess water with her gloved hands, then took them to the resident's bed. The resident was incontinent of soft, semi-formed stool which was contained in the perineal and rectal areas and between her legs. E#86 at first cleaned the resident from the front to the back with one of the washcloths as the resident lay on her left side. She disposed of that washcloth into a clear, plastic bag. When E#86 got to the last washcloth, there was still bowel movement in the vulva/perineal area. She folded over the last, used wash cloth repeatedly, and made three (3) more swipes with that soiled wash cloth to remove the last of the bowel movement from the vulva and perineal area. During an interview with the director of nursing (DON) on 04/25/18 at 6:00 p.m., she said it was against the facility's policy to soak washcloths in a sink basin. She said staff were supposed to use the resident's plastic wash basin for that purpose. The DON also agreed that it was not an acceptable practice to reuse a soiled washcloth to clean the perineal area of an incontinent resident. She said she would do staff education to all staff right away.

A deficient practice was cited at immediate jeopardy for the care area of Freedom from Abuse, Neglect and Exploitation (F 600). A deficient practice was cited at immediate jeopardy for the care area of Infection Control (F 880). Harm was cited in the care areas of Quality of Care (F 684, F 686 and F 688). A deficient practice was also cited at F 677. This practice had the potential to affect more than a limited number of residents. Facility census: 156. a) Resident #119 - Free from Abuse and Neglect The facility failed to provide timely incontinence care to Resident #119. The resident also tearfully reported being verbally abused by a nurse aide because he had called the nurses' station for help after no one responded to his call bell for thirty (30) minutes. The lack of incontinence care and the verbal abuse caused the resident to experience pain, skin breakdown, and psychological harm. Until the surveyor identified the resident's problems and intervened, staff were not aware of the seriousness of his condition. These findings were determined to constitute immediate jeopardy to Resident #119. After consultation with the Office of Health Facility Licensure and Certification (OHFLAC) at 1:25 PM on 04/25/18, and preparation of a written statement, the Administrator and Director of Nursing were notified of the Immediate Jeopardy. The facility provided an acceptable at 4:17 PM on 04/25/18. After verifying implementation of the plan of correction, the immediate jeopardy was abated at 5:26 PM on 04/25/18. No deficient practice remained for this requirement after removal of the immediate jeopardy. This affected one (1) of seven (7) residents reviewed for activities of daily living. During the initial screening for the Long Term Care Survey Process, an interview on 04/23/18 at 11:37 AM, Resident #119 stated he had a pressure ulcer on his buttock from sitting in urine for 30 minutes or longer. He went on to explain he could not walk, that he tried to use a urinal, but sometimes did not get all of the urine in the urinal. Medical record review found his [DIAGNOSES REDACTED].>- muscle weakness - heart failure - Retention of urine - Type 2 Diabetes underlying condition with hyperosmolarity - Chronic [MEDICAL CONDITIONS] - Obesity - History of pressure ulcers on the right heel and penis According to his minimum data set assessment (MDS) with an assessment reference date (ARD) of ____, his Brief Interview for Mental Status Score (BIMS) was 15, indicating he was cognitively intact. Review of his medical records found no mention of current pressure ulcers. Skin Check Performed Sheets dated from 01/27/18 to 04/23/18 documented the following: - 01/27/18- No Skin Injury/Wounds by Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) #172 - 02/04/18 -No Skin Injury/Wounds by LPN #92 - 02/10/18- No Skin Injury/Wounds by LPN #172 - 02/17/18- No Skin Injury/Wounds by LPN #92 - 02/24/18- No Skin Injury/Wounds by LPN #172 - 03/03/18- No Skin Injury/Wounds by LPN #92 - 03/10/18- No Skin Injury/Wounds by LPN #172 - 03/17/18 -Yes Skin Injury/Wounds identified No New Skin Injury/Wounds Type of Skin Injury/Wounds Moisture Associated Skin Damage by Registered Nurse (RN) #4 - 03/24/18- No Skin Injury/Wounds by LPN #172 - 04/02/18- No Skin Injury/Wounds by RN #4 - 04/07/18- No Skin Injury/Wounds by LPN #33 - 04/23/18 -No Skin Injury/Wounds by LPN #92 On 04/25/18 at 9:15 AM, Wound Care Nurse #120 agreed to do a complete skin assessment with the surveyor present. On entering the room, Resident #119 was emotional and tearful saying that he was, chewed out, by Nurse Aide #96 for calling the nurses' station with his cell phone. He stated that she told him to only use his call light that was what it was for and not to call the nurses' station again. He said NA #96 told him that he was not the only one on this floor and he just needed to wait his turn. He said he responded by telling her he used the call light and had been waiting for more than 30 minutes before he called the nurses' station with his cell phone because his skin was on fire from sitting in urine. Resident #119 told this to the surveyor, Wound Care Nurse #120, and Nurse Aide #84. With the resident's permission, Wound Care Nurse #120 pulled the sheets back revealing a very large red excoriation on his upper outer thighs. Further investigation found areas of broken skin under his scrotum and coccyx. The resident's tee shirt was saturated with urine up his back and had small amount of stool on the bottom. The resident said NA #96 had changed him, therefore the nurse aide left him with a soiled shirt. Wound Care Nurse #120 removed the resident's tee shirt. When the nurse asked how long his skin had been in this condition, the resident replied it had been a year - that it started after being on this floor for a week. The complete skin audit by Wound Care Nurse #120 found: - 1. Pressure Ulcer Stage II on Coccyx - 2. Pressure Ulcer Stage II on right ear - 3. Excoriated areas bilateral groin, under both breast, bilateral abdominal folds, bilateral upper outer thighs and bilateral calf's. - 4. Reddened area to the right great toe, second and third toes, right heel. During an interview on 04/25/18 at 9:35 AM, Wound Care Nurse #120 stated that he was, Just mortified by what was just discovered, referring to the condition of Resident #119's skin. He went on to say he had no excuse and they had failed this resident. On 04/25/18 at 9:45 AM, the DoN was informed of the findings for Resident #119. She said she was already aware and was working on a plan of correction. On 04/25/18 at 1:10 PM, Resident #119 said that he was still upset over the NA #96 fussing at him that morning and it was not the first time he had had to wait for over 30 minutes for assistance. He went on to say he had called his wife many times to have her call the facility to ask them to help him. The resident's care plan, dated 04/03/17 included a plan for impaired skin integrity due to his psoriasis, Moisture Associated Skin Damage (MASD), and history of pressure ulcers. The interventions were: - Monitor skin for signs/symptoms of skin breakdown i.e. - Observe skin condition with ADL care daily and report abnormalities - Skin check per policy - Weekly skin assessment by license nurse - Weekly wound assessment The facility's policy, NSG236 Skin Integrity Management Effective date 07/01/01, Revision date 11/28/16, directed the staff to continually observe and monitor for skin changes and implement revisions to the plan of care. The purpose, to provide safe and effective care to prevent the occurrence of pressure ulcers and promote healing of all wounds The facility's policy,OPS300 Abuse Prohibition, effective date 06/01/96 Revision date 04/07/17, stated all employees would be trained ongoing to prevent abuse. The facility reported the resident's allegations concerning NA #96 to the Nurse Aide Program at OHFLAC on 04/26/18. These findings were determined to constitute immediate jeopardy to Resident #119. After consultation with the Office of Health Facility Licensure and Certification (OHFLAC) at 1:25 PM on 04/25/18, and preparation of a written statement, the Administrator and Director of Nursing were notified of the Immediate Jeopardy. The facility provided an acceptable at 4:17 PM on 04/25/18. After verifying implementation of the plan of correction, the immediate jeopardy was abated at 5:26 PM on 04/25/18. No deficient practice remained for this requirement after removal of the immediate jeopardy. The Facility's Plan of Correction: On 04/25/18 The RN wound nurse evaluated Resident #119's skin at 3:50 PM, a pain assessment was conducted by RN wound nurse at 3:50 and a Social Worker (SW)/designee will interview the resident on 04/25/18 by 5 PM, to address alleged psychological harm with corrective action upon discovery. The physician was notified of changes at 3:50 PM, by RN wound nurse. On 04/25/18 the center SW reported the allegation of neglect to the appropriate state agencies at 10:44 AM. All residents of the facility have the potential to be affected. The DON/designees will begin to conduct observation of all residents' skin on 04/25/18 with corrective action upon discovery. SW/designees will begin to interview all interview able residents on 04/25/18 to ensure that incontinence care and pain are addressed timely and that residents have not experienced any psychologic harm as evidenced by lack of verbalized fear and be completed by 04/25/18 with corrective action upon discovery. The DON/designees will begin observations of non-interview able residents' skin sweeps on 04/04/25/18 and completed by 04/26/18, including completion of the non-interview able pain evaluation with corrective action upon discovery. The Nurse Practice Educator (NPE)/designee will re-educate all licensed staff on accurate completion and documentation of the weekly skin checks to monitor the patients and his/her wound's response to treatments and interventions beginning on 04/25/18 and all center staff will be re-educated to ensure all center residents are free from neglect, including pain and psychological harm, respond to residents in a timely manner with a post-test to validate understanding beginning 04/25/18. Staff not available during this timeframe will be provided re-education including post-test by the NPE/designee, upon return to work. New hires will be provided education and post-tests during orientation by the NPE/designee. The Unit Managers (UMS)/designee will conduct observation of weekly skin checks, timely response of continence care, pain monitor flow sheets daily for two weeks across all shifts including weekends, then three times a week for two weeks then randomly thereafter to ensure that weekly skin checks are accurate, incontinence care is provided in a timely manner to avoid skin breakdown, and residents pain is addressed based on daily MAR pain evaluation. The SW/designee will conduct sixteen (16) random interviews daily for two weeks across all shifts including weekends, then three times a week for two weeks then randomly thereafter to ensure that residents do not experience any neglect or psychological harm. Trends identified will be reported by the DON monthly to the Quality Improvement Committee (QIC) for any additional follow up and/or in-servicing until the issue is resolved and randomly thereafter as determined by the QIC. b) Activities of Daily Living Provided to Dependent Residents The failure to ensure dependent residents received needed care and services resulted in actual harm for Resident #26. Resident #26 did not receive care needed care for her hands, resulting in a Stage II pressure area on her palm and pain when attempts were made to open her hand. The facility's failure to ensure Resident #119 received needed skin care and prompt incontinence care were determined to result in actual harm to this resident as he developed pressure ulcers and painful excoriation. Resident #80 needed hygienic measures for hand contractures. Resident identifiers: #80, #26, and #119. Facility census: 156. 1) Resident #26 Observation of the resident at 4:45 p.m. on 04/23/18, found the resident's left and right hands appeared contracted. The resident had no splinting devices in use. Review of the resident's current care plan found the following focus/problem: - Resident requires assistance with ADL's (activities of daily living) due to limited mobility. The goal associated with the problem: - Residents/Patients ADL care needs will be anticipated and met throughout the next review period. Interventions included: - Monitor for decline in ADL function. Refer to rehabilitation therapy and decline in ADL's is noted. Provide resident extensive assist for bed mobility, dressing, eating, personal hygiene, and grooming. While investigating to determine why the resident had possible contractures without splinting devices the following observations were made: - Observation of the resident at 1:44 p.m. on 04/25/18, with OT #171 revealed, OT #171 was able to open the resident's right hand with without difficulty. When opened, a sour odor, coming from the resident's right hand was evident. OT #171 said she had sinuses and could not smell the odor. When OT #171 attempted to open the resident's left hand, a strong putrid, foul smelling, sour odor, emanated from the hand. OT #171 acknowledged she could smell the odor coming from the left hand. OT #171 said she would get staff to clean the resident's hands. OT #171 was unable to fully extend all the fingers of the resident's left hand. The ring finger was pressed into the palm of the resident's hand. It was evident the finger nailwas cutting into the palm of the resident's hand. OT #171 said, She was never like this when we finished with therapy services in January. When OT #171, discarded her gloves in the trash can in the corner of the resident's room, the foul odor from the gloves could be smelled coming out of the trash can. Throughout the observation, the resident said, Ouch, that hurts, that hurts, when OT #171 was attempting to work with the resident's left hand. The resident also said, I need my fingernails cut, the doctor said so. The resident nails were long jagged and unclean. These observations were discussed with the director of nursing (DON) at 2:00 p.m. on 04/25/18. The DON said she would have a nurse soak the resident's hand in warm water, assess the condition of the hands and cut the fingernails. At 2:15 p.m. on 04/25/18, Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) #26 was observed cleaning the resident's hands and cutting the fingernails. LPN #26 acknowledged the resident had a foul smelling odor coming from both hands. LPN #26 said she thought she could see a, break in the skin, on the palm of the left hand. She said, I won't know for sure until I soak the hand and get it to open a little more. At 3:15 p.m. on 04/25/18, the director of rehabilitation services, Employee #170 said the resident was screened for services on 04/19/18. [NAME] #170 said, When we screen a resident we can't touch them. If the patient can't tell us what is wrong or the staff don't tell us we don't know. She said the resident didn't want any therapy but did agree to a speech evaluation. E#170 said staff would not have looked at the resident's hands. At 3:17 p.m. on 4/25/18, the information received from E#170 was discussed with the DON. The DON said she was unaware a therapist could not touch a resident during a screen. At 8:10 a.m. on 04/26/18, observation with the DON found the DON confirmed the resident had a Stage II pressure area on the left hand, just under the ring finger on the palm of left hand. The DON acknowledged the resident still had a slight sour odor coming from the left hand. At 8:35 a.m. on 004/26/18, the DON said, I am taking care of this, calling the doctor, the residents family and will get an order for [REDACTED]. The DON acknowledged staff had not been cleaning the resident's hands as needed to prevent the odor. The DON said the skin check, completed by the nursing staff on 04/20/18, should have caught the problem. The DON was unable to provide any information to support the facility was aware of the foul odor of the resident's hands, the left hand contracture, or the development of a Stage II pressure area on the palm of the resident's left hand, prior to surveyor intervention. The failure to provide extensive assistance for personal hygiene, (ADL care and cleaning) of the residents hands lead to the foul odor coming from both the left and right hands. Had ADL care been provided, the facility may have recognized the inability of the resident to voluntarily open both the left and right hands. Had the facility addressed this decline, the contracture of the left hand may have been prevented. The failure to address the resident's contracture of the left hand lead contributed to the development of a Stage II pressure ulcer to the left hand. This was determined to constitute actual harm to this resident. 2) Resident #119 During the screening for the initial pool of the Long-Term Care Survey Process, an interview on 04/23/18 at 11:37 AM with Resident #119 revealed he had a pressure ulcer on his lower buttock from sitting in urine for 30 minutes or longer. He went on to explain he could not walk, and tried to use a urinal, but sometimes did not get all the urine in the urinal. He stated there was not enough staff last night - one aide was with two (2) nurse aides in training. According to the resident, it takes more than an hour for staff to answer a call light. He said he had been told his aide was on break, and the aides also told him they were short staffed. This was mostly on the 3:00 PM to 11:00 PM or the 11:00 PM to 7:00 AM shifts. On 04/25/18 at 9:15 AM, Resident #119 was emotional and tearful saying that he was chewed out by the Nurse Aide #96 for calling the nurses' station with his cell phone. He stated she told him to only use his call light, that was what it was for, and not to call the nurses' station again. He said, NA #96 told him that he was not the only one on this floor and he just needed to wait his turn. He said he responded by telling her he used the call light and had been waiting for more than 30 minutes before he called the nurses' station with his cell phone, because his skin was on fire from sitting in urine. The resident told this to the surveyor, Wound Care Nurse #120, and Nurse Aide #84. On 04/25/18 at 9:15 AM, Wound Care Nurse #120 agreed to do a complete skin assessment with the surveyor present. A complete skin audit by Wound Care Nurse #120 found: - 1. Pressure Ulcer Stage II on Coccyx - 2. Pressure Ulcer Stage II on right ear - 3. Excoriated areas bilateral groin, under both breast, bilateral abdominal folds, bilateral upper outer thighs and bilateral calf's. - 4. Reddened area to the right great toe, second and third toes, right heel. The failure of the facility to ensure needed skin care and prompt incontinence care were determined to result in actual harm to this resident. During an interview on 04/25/18 at 9:45 AM, when informed of findings, the DoN stated she had heard from Wound Care Nurse #120 and was addressing the problem. On 04/25/18 at 1:10 PM, Resident #119 said that he was still upset over the NA #96 fussing at him that morning and it was not the first time he has had to wait for over 30 minutes for assistance. He went on to say he has called his wife many times to have her call the facility to ask them to help him. 3) Resident #80 Observation on 04/23/18 at 3:40 p.m. found this resident lying in bed. He had contractures of both hands. There were no splints, palm guards, or any type of device in place to either hand. Observations on 04/24/18 at 10:30 a.m., again found he had no splints, palm guards, rolled washcloths or any devices in either hand. He held both hands firmly closed. At 12:15 p.m. on 04/24/18, while accompanied by Registered Nurse Employee #13 (E#13), a white washcloth was found placed partially in his left hand, and a thin, smaller, yellow-colored cloth was was found placed partially in his right hand. When asked whether these cloths were placed in his hands later than 10:45 a.m. that morning, E#13 replied in the affirmative and said she had placed them. On 04/24/18 at 12:15 p.m., E#13 removed the cloths in preparation for inspection of the palms of both hands. When the nurse removed the cloths from his hands, a foul smell was immediately noted. When asked if that foul odor came from the cloths having been placed in his hands, E#13 stated I can't put my nose on them to smell them. E#13 tried to move the contracted fingers so the palms could be visualized. His fingers were drawn down tightly, which made visualization of the palms inadequate. She moved the right thumb about one-quarter of an inch outward, which then allowed visualization of a dry, reddened area on the skin of the fourth finger of the right hand. The thumbnail of the right hand lay directly on top of, and pressing against, the reddened area of the fourth finger beneath it. The right thumbnail was smooth, but long, protruding beyond the flesh at the tip of the thumb a quarter of an inch. It needed trimmed. At 3:15 p.m. on 04/24/18, Occupational Therapist Employee #171 and wound nurse/registered nurse E#120 came to the resident's bed. A white wash cloth and a thinner, yellow cloth lay on his chest. The palms could only slightly be visualized. E#120 said they were aware of the reddened area to the right fourth finger and were monitoring and treating it. He said the right thumbnail needed trimmed. Review of a grievance on 04/24/18 at 4:00 p.m. found one from the daughter of Resident #80 dated 02/19/18. It stated Daughter concerned resident's hands are not being cleaned and nails aren't being clipped as often as they should be. The corrective action from Unit 3 Nursing Staff stated Ordered hands to be cleaned daily and nails trimmed every Tuesday and Friday. Review of the (MONTH) Medication Administration Record [REDACTED]. This was a one (1) week audit. The (MONTH) MAR indicated [REDACTED]. Staff initialed its completion on 03/06/18 and 03/09/18. The space for 03/13/18 was left blank. This, too, was on the MAR for one (1) week. Review of the resident's care plan on 04/24/18 at 4:00 p.m., found an area of focus for the resident being dependent for ADL care as evidenced by multiple contractures. A goal included that he would be clean, dry and odor free through next review. The care plan was not fully developed to include cleaning his hands daily and/or how to accomplish that task, or anything about nail trimming. Observation on 04/25/18 at 2:25 p.m., accompanied by licensed nurse Employee #80 (E#80) found no cloths, palm guards or any devices in either hand. When asked why there was no padding or cloth between the thumbnail and the fourth finger of the right hand to reduce pressure, she threaded the yellow cloth into the resident's right hand. She ensured it padded the skin between the right thumbnail and the reddened area to the fourth finger beneath it. The nurse agreed the right thumbnail was too long. She said she had some clippers and would cut and trim that offending right thumbnail. The nurse also placed a washcloth in the palm of the left hand. During an interview on 04/25/18 at 6:00 p.m. , the director of nursing said there should not have been an odor from the palms of his hands as it was possible for staff to clean his hands. She was informed that the nurse on 04/24/18 at 3:15 p.m. stated his right thumbnail was too long, and that they were monitoring and treating the reddened skin area to the right fourth finger upon which the right thumb and thumbnail rested. She was also informed that the following day on 04/25/18 at 2:25 p.m. the right thumbnail was still long and in need of trimming. The nurse on duty at 2:25 p.m. on 04/25/18 said she had clippers and would trim the thumb nail right away. A copy of the grievance form dated 02/19/18 conveyed the resident's daughter's concern that his hands were not cleaned and his nails not clipped as often as they should be. The DON acknowledged the grievance. No further information was provided prior to exit. On 04/26/18 at approximately 9:30 a.m., these findings were discussed with the administrator. No further information was provided by the facility prior to exit. c) Quality of Care 1) Resident #147 Resident #147 did not receive insulin as directed by the physician which lead to harm due to critically elevated blood glucose levels, high sodium levels, and acute kidney injury. Additionally, there was no evidence of an assessment of the resident's mental and physical status when his blood sugars were over 600. Furthermore, the resident's antibiotic was stopped prior to completion of the course ordered by the physician, but there was no evidence the physician had ordered it discontinued. Resident identifier: #147. Facility census: 156. An interview with the resident and his daughter at 11:19 a.m. on 04/23/18, found the daughter was very worried about the medical condition of her father. The daughter said her father had been very confused, his blood sugars were high, he had an incontinent episode, and he had a cough. She said her father was recently diagnosed with [REDACTED]. She was fearful he would die if something was not done. She said she talked to someone of Saturday, a nurse she thought, who said she would have to wait until Monday to see the doctor. She said the facility did get a chest x-ray, but she did not think this would tell them if he was having other problems. She believed her father needed to have some blood work and hoping that was going to happen that day. Record review found a [AGE] year-old male resident admitted to the facility on [DATE]. His hospital discharge summary noted the resident was hosptalized on [DATE]. He was treated for [REDACTED]. ANCA (associated small-vessel vasculitis) are autoantibodies produced by a person's immune system that mistakenly attack proteins within the person's [DIAGNOSES REDACTED]s (white blood cell types). The most common subsets of ANCA are those that target the proteins myeloperoxidase (MPO) and proteinase.) The resident was discharged from the hospital to the nursing home on 03/28/18. Review of the resident's medical record found he was seen by the family nurse practitioner (FNP) on Saturday, 04/20/18 for a change in condition.

The nurse's note, dated 04/23/18 at 6:37, noted the resident's blood glucose level was over 600. The resident's physician was contacted and ordered, Humalog 10 units now. Recheck glucose in 1 hours. If glucose is higher than 400 repeat 1 dose. At 7:30 a.m. on 04/23/18, the MAR indicated [REDACTED]. Another 10 units of Humalog was administered. At 8:30 a.m. on 04/23/18, the resident's blood glucose was still 511. At 9:40 a.m. on 04/23/18 another 15 units of Humalog was administered, according to the MAR.

A nursing note written at 12:06 a.m. on 04/23/18, noted the physician was contacted and another 20 units of [MEDICATION NAME] was given and the physician said to give the [MEDICATION NAME] that is due tonight. The MAR indicated [REDACTED] There were no nursing notes describing the resident's condition when his blood glucose was above 600; such as was the resident level of consciousness affected, was he thirsty, tired, was his coordination affected, etc. The resident was seen by the physician on 04/23/18 at 7:35 p.m. The plan ordered by the physician: Stat (immediately) labs came back. WBC (white blood cell count) is normal. But BUN/CR (blood urea nitrogen/creatinine ratio) significantly increased from prior. K (potassium) is 5.7. Patient in AKI (acute kidney injury), ordered IVF (intravenous fluids), hold [MEDICATION NAME] and [MEDICATION NAME], give [MEDICATION NAME] for [MEDICAL CONDITION] (high potassium). Recheck BMP (basic metabolic panel) in morning, the low sodium on BMP is due to high BG of over 700. The BG has been checked since then and it is down to 200's no longer in 700's. At 8:40 a.m. on 04/25/18, the director of nursing (DON) was interviewed regarding Resident #126. Before the interview began, the DON said, I already know a medication error was made regarding the physician's orders [REDACTED]. The DON verified the [MEDICATION NAME] was to be decreased to 20 units due to the resident's low blood glucose level of 50 obtained on 04/20/18. She said the new order was transcribed to the MAR, but was then discontinued. The resident never received any [MEDICATION NAME] and the resident's blood glucose levels were above 600, 3 days after the medication was stopped when it should have been reduced. The DON verified the blood glucose level was not obtained after the [MEDICATION NAME] was administered at 11:00 a.m. on 04/24/18. The DON said she had already disciplined the staff involved in the medication errors. The DON confirmed the medication error resulted in treatments that could have been prevented if staff had followed the physician's orders [REDACTED]. The failure to administer insulin as ordered by the physician and to monitor the resident's blood glucose when indicated resulted in actual harm to this resident. On 04/02/18 the physician ordered [MEDICATION NAME] 1 gram IM (intramuscular) daily for the next 4 days, pending the results of the urinalysis. Review of the resident's Medication Administration Record [REDACTED]. There was no explanation why the medication was discontinued, and no evidence the physician was contacted and approved the discontinuation. At 9:21 a.m. on 04/25/18, the DON said the results of the urinalysis showed the resident did not have a urinary tract infection.

The facility failed to isolate a resident with pneumonia who had a positive sputum culture with a multi-drug resistant organism (Resident #103). The facility failed to culture a draining wound (Resident #256). The facility failed to identify and document on infection control line listings a resident who was prescribed antibiotic therapy (#130). The facility failed to review their infection control and prevention policies and procedures at least annually. Other infection control infractions included a leaking shower in a commonly shared unit shower room , dirty gloves lying on the floor of a commonly shared unit shower room, a green mat left spread across a toilet to dry in a bathroom connected to a commonly shared unit shower room, a Foley catheter tubing dragging the floor (Resident #126), and the ice chest used to dispense fresh ice to residents was left open in the residents' hallway when not in use. A commonly shared Glucometer was not cleaned appropriately between each resident's use. The laundry room did not have negative air pressure between the clean and dirty side of the laundry area. A nurse failed to perform hand hygiene between administration of medications to multiple residents. A nurse placed resident medications directly into her bare hands prior to placing the medications into portion cups. Staff stored personal items in a medication cart. A nurse failed to maintain effective infection control practice during wound care for Resident #36. These deficient practices had the potential to affect all residents in the facility. Resident identifiers: #103, #256, #130, #126, #36. Facility census: 155. Findings include: a) Infection control surveillance 1. Resident #103 Infection control line listing review were reviewed with infectious disease/infection control registered nurse #160 (RN #160) beginning at 3:30 PM on 05/01/19.

Interview with the floor charge nurse, Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) #15, on 06/13/17 at 10:26 a.m., revealed LPN #15 agreed that raising Resident #141's bed to a high position and leaving the room with the resident unattended was a fall hazard for the resident. The LPN said the resident was already at risk for falls that is why Resident #141 had the fall mat and the bed alarm. LPN #15 said NAs are trained to gather all their supplies before starting care. LPN #15 concurred NA #55 breached infection control principals by laying the dirty wash cloth and brief on the fall mat. LPN #15 also agreed the bleach cleanser being left in the room was a chemical hazard. b) First Floor Hallway On 06/14/17 at 1:50 p.m., random observation of first floor hallway revealed a hallway cluttered with equipment and supplies on both sides of the hallway.

Resident #64 voiced feelings of anxiousness and worry on 08/28/18 when there was a delay in starting her antibiotic once the physician had reviewed the results and ordered the antibiotics be started. The resident's feelings of neglect, anxiousness and worry resulted in Resident #64 suffering psychosocial harm. For Resident #101, staff failed follow a physician's orders [REDACTED]. These failures affected two (2) of twenty-six (26) sampled residents during the Long-Term Care Survey Process. Resident Identifiers: #64 and #101. Facility Census: 117. Findings Include: a) Resident #64 An interview with Resident #64 at 11:00 a.m. on 08/28/18 found the previous week, the physician had ordered a chest x-ray for the resident because she had wheezing in her lungs. She reported that a couple days ago (First name of Nurse Practitioner) told her that her chest x-ray was clear. She said that the night before last she woke up about 12:15 a.m. and was freezing like she had a fever and they had to put the heat on 85 degrees to get her warm. She stated early this morning they brought an IV pump into her room and told her that she was going to be started on an IV antibiotic because her chest x-ray she had done last week showed she had pneumonia. She stated they told her the attending physician reviewed the x-ray report last night and ordered the IV antibiotics. She stated, I am upset because it has been almost a week since they got the x-ray report and (First name of Nurse Practitioner) told me it was clear. She indicated that she felt she was being neglected and she was very worried about her health and wanted to get well. A review of Resident #64's medical record found a physician's orders [REDACTED]. A review of the record found the chest x-ray results for 08/22/18. The conclusion on the radiologist's report on 08/22/18 at 12:04 p.m. was, Slight right lower lobe infiltrate new since 08/15/18. Mild cardiomegaly. The results were signed by the attending physician on 08/27/18 and he wrote an order on the X-ray report, [MEDICATION NAME] 750 mg IV q day for 7 days. An interview with the Nurse Practitioner on 08/28/18 at 1:10 p.m. revealed she had not reviewed the resident's x-ray report because she was on vacation last week. She indicated she did not speak to the resident about her x-ray report and that perhaps the resident had her confused with someone else. An interview with the Director of Nursing (DON) at 1:21 p.m. on 08/28/18 confirmed the physician had not been notified of the x-ray report in a timely manner. She stated, I have no explanation for the delay in notification. An additional interview with Resident #64 at 1:31 p.m. on 08/28/18 revealed she did not feel well. She stated that she had no energy and she coughed, but could not get anything up. She indicated that she was very aggravated with the facility right now because she has a port which they could use to give her the antibiotics and she had been waiting since early that morning to get her antibiotic started. She stated, I don't know what is taking them so long, they can use my port. She indicated, she had anxiety about not getting her antibiotics started that morning and that the delay was adding more worry on top of the worry already caused by the delay in treatment. The resident's feeling of neglect, anxiety, and worry resulted in the resident suffering psychosocial harm. An interview with the DON at 1:53 p.m. on 08/28/18 found that Resident #64's antibiotic had arrived sometime in the early morning hours. She indicated that any Registered Nurse (RN) could start the antibiotic and she would have someone get it started. The DON indicated there were five (5) RNs working that morning and any of them could have started the antibiotic. Despite the antibiotic having arrived from the pharmacy early that morning and staff telling Resident #12 they were going to be starting it that morning, it was not started until 2:00 p.m. on 08/28/18. (The attending physician did order a repeat chest x ray on 08/28/18. The results of this x ray were reviewed and found the resident's pneumonia was clear. Based on these results the attending physician discontinued the residents IV antibiotics after only one dose.) b) Resident #101 Review of Resident #101's medical records revealed a Change in Condition Evaluation dated 08/21/18 at 3:06 AM reporting a red, bumpy, itchy rash on the resident's chest and shoulders. The rash was reported as starting on the morning of 08/19/18. The rash was reported to the physician on 08/21/2018 at 6:00 AM. A telephone order was obtained from the physician on 08/21/18 at 6:44 PM for [MEDICATION NAME] to affected area BID (twice a day) and PRN (as needed) d/t (due to) pruritis (itching). During an interview on 08/29/18 at 11:00 AM, the Center Nurse Executive (CNE) stated Change in Condition Evaluations were typically documented at the time the change in condition was discovered. She stated she would attempt to determine the reason Resident #101's rash was identified on 08/19/18, but not reported until 08/21/18. On 08/29/18 at 12:42 PM, the CNE reported Resident #101's rash was identified on 08/19/18 by a nurse who did not have computer access to Change in Condition Evaluations. The Change in Condition Evaluation was documented on 08/21/18 by another nurse who did have computer access to the form. The CNE stated she would look for information as to whether the physician was notified regarding Resident #101's rash before 08/21/18. On 08/29/18 at 2:25 PM, the CNE stated she had been unable to locate documentation that the physician was notified about Resident #101's rash before 08/21/18. Review of Resident #101's Treatment Administration Record (TAR) found the task to apply [MEDICATION NAME] twice a day and as needed to the resident's rash, as ordered by the physician on 08/21/18. The task was scheduled to be performed once a day on the 7:00 AM to 7:00 PM shift and once a day on the 7:00 PM to 7:00 AM shift. However, only the following dates and times were initialed by the nurse, indicating the medication had been applied: - 08/21/18 on the 7:00 PM to 7:00 AM shift - 08/22/18 on the 7:00 AM to 7:00 PM shift - 08/27/18 on the 7:00 AM to 7:00 PM shift - 08/28/18 on the 7:00 AM to 7:00 PM shift During an interview on 08/29/18 at 11:03 AM, the Nurse Unit Manager, Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) #20, confirmed the TAR documented [MEDICATION NAME] ointment had only been applied four (4) times since ordered on [DATE]. She stated she thought the order for Resident #101's [MEDICATION NAME] ointment was only as needed, rather than twice a day and as needed. She stated other nurses may have also thought the [MEDICATION NAME] ointment order was for the medication only to be applied as needed, rather than twice a day and as needed. LPN #20 stated she would re-write the order on the TAR to clarify [MEDICATION NAME] ointment should be applied twice a day and as needed, as ordered by the physician. On 08/30/18 at 12:17 PM, the Administrator was notified about the facility's failure to document and report to the physician Resident #101's rash at the time the rash was identified on 08/19/18. The Administrator was also notified about the facility's failure to apply [MEDICATION NAME] ointment twice a day as ordered by the physician. The Administrator had no further information regarding these matters.",2020-09-01

The resident, who was assessed to require the use of a sit to stand lift for transfers, fell in the shower room when she attempted to stand holding on to an assist bar while a nurse aide (NA) pulled up her brief and pant leg. Additionally, according to the resident, she was unable to hold on to the assist bar because she had lotion on her hands. The lift was not used during the entire shower process and only one NA was assisting the resident.

She stated that when she attempted to stand using the assist bar, My hands had lotion on them and when I stood up to the assist bar I fell over like a tree. She added that NA #41 got two (2) other NAs (NA #38 and NA #67) to help get her back in her wheelchair, but they did not use a lift at any point during her shower or after her fall. A review of Resident #21's medical record at 3:00 p.m. on 08/28/18 found a lift assessment dated [DATE] which indicated the resident was to be transferred via a sit to stand lift. During an interview at 4:07 p.m. on 08/28/18, the Director of Nursing (DON) stated she was not aware of the fall and she would have to investigate to see what had happened. When informed that the resident had reported staff did not use a lift to transfer her, the DON indicated if her lift assessment indicated she needed a sit to stand lift they should have used a lift for her. She also commented that if they were using a lift, they would have to have two (2) people to transfer her. At 8:14 a.m. on 08/29/18, the DON reported the nurse aide told a nurse, but when the nurse went to talk to the resident about it, she told the nurse she did not fall. She stated that NA #41 did not perceive the incident as a fall because she let the resident slide down her leg. The DON indicated that she was doing some education with the staff about what should be considered a fall. When asked why the staff did not use a sit to stand lift the DON stated, I do not know for sure why she did not use the lift.",2020-09-01

The skin report reflected the Stage II on the coccyx on 10/19/18, 10/24/18, 10/31/18, and 11/07/18. On 10/06/18, 10/10/18, and 10/17/18 the skin report reflected the area on the coccyx as an unstageable pressure ulcer. According to the resident assessment inventory (RAI) manual, Once the pressure ulcer is debrided of slough and/or eschar such that the anatomic depth of soft tissue damage involved can be determined, then code the ulcer for the reclassified stage. The pressure ulcer does not have to be completely debrided or free of all slough and/or eschar tissue for reclassification of stage to occur. A review of the MDS with an ARD of 11/01/18 section M reflected the resident did not have a Stage II pressure ulcer. An interview with MDS coordinator on 11/14/18 at 5:03 PM revealed the MDS was incorrect for the area of Stage II pressure ulcers. b) Comprehensive Care Plans 1. Resident #64 Review of Resident #67's Medication Administration Record [REDACTED]. Review of the care plan found no evidence Resident #67 having an implanted venous port. On 11/04/18 the director of nursing (DON) explained Resident #67 has had the port for several years but could not find the date of placement. The DON also agreed Resident #64's care plan does not include evidence of the port existence or interventions to care for the port. c) Care plan timings 1. Resident #72 Review of the medical record on 11/13/18 found this resident and/or family elected to discontinue hospice services in September, (YEAR) A significant change minimum data set (MDS) with assessment reference date (ARD) of 09/18/18, assessed that he no longer received hospice services. A physician's orders [REDACTED]. Another physician order [REDACTED]. The latter was a verbal order from the doctor to a nurse. Review of the care plan on 11/13/18 found it still contained interventions related to hospice services. Interventions on the current care plan included the following: - Arrange visits with pastoral care, social worker, psychological services as indicated and desired. This intervention was created and initiated on 04/20/18. - Collaborate with hospice program to coordinate plan of care. This intervention was created and initiated on 04/20/18, and a revision date of 09/13/18. - Provide palliative care, dying process, bereavement, as needed per protocol. This intervention was created and initiated on 04/20/18. An interview was conducted with the director of nursing (DON) on 11/14/18 at 11:30 AM, while in the presence of the administrator. She reviewed the care plan on her computer. She agreed that the care plan was not revised to address the discontinuation of hospice services. 2. Resident #11 A review of the care plan for Resident #11 reflected a focus area which stated the resident required assistance in transfers. The interventions listed included, see transfer/lift assessment. The lift assessment dated [DATE] reflected the resident required a total lift for transfers. The resident was assessed as being non-weight bearing and not being able to transfer independently with supervision or without this use of a device. A focus area on the care plan for the resident's risk for falls included an intervention to assist resident getting out in out of bed with assist of one person and gait belt for transfer. An interview with the director of nursing (DoN) and Nurse Aide #8 on 11/14/18 at 11:14 AM revealed Resident #11 required the use of a lift for transfers. The DoN said she realized the conflicting information present in the care plan under the ADL and fall section and would make a revision to reflect the resident's requirement of the use of a lift for transfers. d) Accident hazards 1. Resident #304 Review on 11/12/18 of the facility's Assessment History Report for lifts and transfer revealed that this resident on 10/19/18 was assessed as as needing a a total lift with a full body sling size large. The score assigned on this report was 47.0. The electronic medical record care plan was reviewed on 11/13/18, as was a hard copy of the current care plan provided by the director of nursing (DON). The current care plan contained a focus that this resident was at risk for falls related to impaired mobility and fall history. A current intervention, which was initiated and created on 11/02/18, directed that a mechanical lift (be) used for transfers. Review of the electronic medical record Kardex directed to refer to the lift assessment for transfers. On 11/14/18 at 9:00 AM an interview was conducted with Resident #304. Upon inquiry as to how he transfers from the bed to the wheelchair, he said he just stands up and sits down in the wheelchair. When asked if he uses a mechanical lift of any kind or body sling during the transfers from the bed to the chair, he replied in the negative. When asked the number of nursing assistants who help him transfer from the bed to the chair and vice versa, he said one (1) aide helps him. He said they do not want him to transfer by himself. An interview was conducted with nursing assistant #55 on 11/14/18 at 9:10 AM. She said she is a float working the back hall today and is assigned to his room, but she has never worked with this resident before. When asked how he transfers from the bed to the chair, she said she believes they use a gait belt to transfer him. She said there is a lift assessment book at the nurse's station that they can refer to to find out how each resident transfers. She said that information is also written on the door by the resident's name. At this time, we referred to the tag on the door by this resident's name. The tag at the door directed that he was a total lift for transfers who used a full body sling size large. At 9:10 AM on 11/14/18, NA #55 entered the resident's room. When asked in front of NA #55 how he transfers from the bed to the wheelchair, he said he just stands up and turns around and sits down. He said he never uses a mechanical lift, but his room mate does. At this time his room-mate (Resident #105) spoke up and said that two (2) aides assist him (R#105) with transfers out of bed via a mechanical lift. He said that they do not use a mechanical lift for transfers out of bed for Resident #304. On 11/14/18 at 9:15 AM an interview was conducted with unit manager LPN #71. She said they formerly had a lift assessment book at the desk, but they discontinued its use when they changed to electronic medical records. When LPN #71 was informed that Resident #304's Kardex direct staff to refer to the lift assessment, she said that the information on the lift assessment is also located on each resident's front door. She said Employee #19 is the admissions co-coordinator, and is the person responsible for putting the stickers on the residents' doors based on the lift assessments upon admission. LPN #71 was informed that the information on the resident's door directs that he is a total lift with the need for a size large sling, although he says he does not use a mechanical lift for transfers At 9:20 AM on 11/14/18 unit manager LPN #71 printed a copy of the most recent Lift Transfer Reposition form which was dated 10/24/18 by registered nurse #11. This lift Transfer Reposition assessment stated the following: - [NAME] Assessment -1. Is the patient able to transfer independently or with supervision without using a device? No. -2. Is the patient able to weight-bear equal to of greater than 50 percent on one or both legs? No. - 5 e was checkmarked that total lift was required. -6 Number of staff needed for repositioning in bed: Two (2) -B. Specifications/sizes b. Total lift, size sling size large, based on weight of 163.8 pounds on 10/20/18. At this time, LPN #71 said she updated his assessment, and will provide a copy of it after she enters it into the electronic health record. An interview was conducted with nursing assistant #32 on 11/14/18 at 9:35 AM. She said she has worked with Resident #304 before, although she is not assigned to him today. She said she always uses a gait belt when helping to transfer Resident #304 from the bed to the chair and vice versa. She said he stands and pivots. She said they do not use a mechanical lift to transfer him. She said they use a mechanical lift for his room-mate for transfers out of bed. Review on 11/14/18 of the minimum data set (MDS) with assessment reference date (ARD) 09/29/18 found a brief interview for mental status (BIMS) score assessment of fifteen (15). A score of fifteen (15) indicates intact cognitive functioning. Review of his room-mate's (Resident #105) MDS, with ARD of 09/29/18, found a BIMS score assessment of fifteen (15). Another BIMS assessment dated [DATE] also assessed his score of fifteen (15). On 11/14/18 at 9:45 AM LPN unit manger #71 provided a copy of the updated Left Transfer Reposition with effective date 11/14/18 at 9:24 AM. Per this assessment, it was determined that a gait/transfer belt is required for transfers. An interview was conducted with the administrator on 11/14/18 at 11:30 AM. He said using the gait belt rather than a mechanical lift caused no harm to the resident. He surmised that the resident got stronger due to therapy services and subsequently improved to the use of a gait belt for transfers. It was discussed that the nursing assistant and the resident and the resident's room-mate reported that his transfers were being done without the use of a mechanical lift. However, the tag at the resident's door which gave directive for nursing assistants to follow, directed to use a lift and a large sized body sling for transfers. The Kardex which the nursing assistants use directed to refer to the lift assessment for transfers. The lift assessment, dated 10/19/18, directed to use a full body sling size large and a total lift for transfer. An intervention care planned on 11/02/18 directed the use of a mechanical lift for transfers. This practice indicated that the nursing assistants were using their own judgment for completing transfers rather than the written directive on the Kardex and/or care plan, and/or lift assessment, and/or directive on the door frame of the resident's room. The administrator said he would look through the medical record and therapy notes to see if perhaps the order had changed to transfers with a gait belt. No further information was provided prior to exit. e) [MEDICAL TREATMENT] 1. Resident #303 Review of records, on 11/13/18 at 2:15 PM, revealed Resident #303 receives [MEDICAL TREATMENT] on Monday and Fridays at a [MEDICAL TREATMENT] center. Review of the [MEDICAL TREATMENT] Communication book revealed the post [MEDICAL TREATMENT] section of the [MEDICAL TREATMENT] communication record forms are not completed as required by nursing, when the resident returns to the facility from the [MEDICAL TREATMENT] center after having [MEDICAL TREATMENT]. The post section of the [MEDICAL TREATMENT] communication forms, which are to be completed in its entirety by the facility nurse when the resident returns to the facility, were not consistently filled in with the information the form required or that was individualized to reflect Resident #303 status. The [MEDICAL TREATMENT] communication form requested the following information in the Post-[MEDICAL TREATMENT] section: an assessment including the access site, whether there is any swelling, drainage, or pain. For a resident with an AV (Arteriovenous) Shunt only, Bruits or Thrills should be assessed, and should be marked plus (+) or minus (-) to indicate whether any are present. 'Yes' or 'No' is to be marked to indicate if there are any new orders from the [MEDICAL TREATMENT] Center. Lastly there are blank lines available for the nurse to make narrative notes concerning the resident's condition or any other pertinent information such as vital signs (VS), which includes blood pressure, pulse, temperature, and respirations. On 10/17/18 and 10/26/18 only vital signs (VS) was recorded in the narrative notes section, but no other information was noted, nothing to indicate if there were or were not any new orders or any assessments made of the site to ensure the dressing was in place and was dry and intact. On 10/24/18 and 10/29/18 only information provided concerned new orders, and it was marked 'No' indicating there were no new orders from [MEDICAL TREATMENT] Center for those visits. On 10/29/18 the [MEDICAL TREATMENT] nurse dated the [MEDICAL TREATMENT] section 10/29/18, however the facility nurse dated the post section 10/20/18. On 10/31/18 the only information completed was the AV shunt assessment, however the resident does not have a shunt. Resident#303 has a perma-cath (catheter) and that assessment is not applicable to this particular resident,. For a perma- cath the nurses need to ensure the dressing is dry with out drainage nd intact. On 11/02/18 and 11/05/18 the facility did not complete any information on the post-[MEDICAL TREATMENT] section, the section was left completely blank with no marked areas or any narrative notes. Review of the F698 [MEDICAL TREATMENT] & Proper BP Documentation Audit ([MEDICAL TREATMENT] and Proper Blood Pressure Documentation Audit, on 11/13/18 at 3:32 PM, revealed the audit reflected no issues found for Resident #303. The category columns listed for review were 'Resident', 'Date', 'Communication Book Complete?', 'BP (blood pressure) documented correct?', and 'Corrective Action Needed'. This surveyor's review of the [MEDICAL TREATMENT] communication record forms dated 10/17/18, 10/24/18, 10/26/18, 10/29/18, 10/31/18, 11/02/18, and 11/05/18, revealed the forms were not complete and corrective actions were needed. The audit sheet revealed on these dates the communication book form was complete, and no corrective action were needed. Review of the facility's plan of correction, on 11/13/18 at 3:45 PM, revealed the DON/designee will re-educate all involved licensed nursing staff ensuring all [MEDICAL TREATMENT] Communication Records are completed prior to and in their entirety after every [MEDICAL TREATMENT] trip according to policy. Another intervention in the plan of correction included, .will reeducate all licensed nurses concerning . the completion of the [MEDICAL TREATMENT] Communication Record prior to and upon return on or before 10/11/18 with a post-test to validate understanding. Nursing staff was re-educated, and a post test was given. A Review of the POS [REDACTED]. The correct answer to question number 1 was 'false', When a resident is receiving [MEDICAL TREATMENT], it is not important which extremity blood pressures are taken in. Indicating it is important which extremity blood pressures are taken in. The correct answer to question number 2 was 'true', When documenting blood pressures on a [MEDICAL TREATMENT] resident, the nurse should be cautious to document the correct extremity it is taken in. The correct answer to question number 3 was 'true', The [MEDICAL TREATMENT] communication form is to be completed entirely with each [MEDICAL TREATMENT] treatment. The correct answer to question number 4 was 'false', It is ok to just write a note when a resident returns from [MEDICAL TREATMENT] if the nurse does not want to complete the [MEDICAL TREATMENT] communication sheet. Indicating the form must be filled out. On 11/13/18 at 4:00 PM, an interview with the Unit Manager, Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN#71) and Staff#13 (Medical Records) who was responsible for completing the audit, confirmed the post-[MEDICAL TREATMENT] section of the [MEDICAL TREATMENT] communication record forms were not properly filled out and the audit was not correct. Staff#13 (Medical Records) stated she thought it was complete because the resident did not have a shunt but a perma-cath and nurses chart by exception. Staff#13 said some of the information was also charted on the Treatment Administration record (TAR). When asked how the [MEDICAL TREATMENT] center would know what was charted on the TAR to ensure continuity of care or why the nurses did not at least check 'yes' or 'no' concerning whether there were any new orders from the [MEDICAL TREATMENT] center. Staff#13 did not answer, but agreed the forms were not filled out as the nurses should have, and the audit was wrong. LPN#71, who helped to create the plan of correction, said the intend was to make the post-[MEDICAL TREATMENT] section of the Communication Record complete, there should not be any blanks left on the form. On 11/15/18 at 11:48 AM, review of the facility's policy titled, [MEDICAL TREATMENT] Communication and Documentation revealed the following Practice Standards: 1. Prior to a patient leaving the center for outpatient [MEDICAL TREATMENT] treatment, a licensed nurse will complete the top portion of the [MEDICAL TREATMENT] Communication Record or the state required form and send with the patient to his/her out patient [MEDICAL TREATMENT] center visit. 2. Following completion of the out-patient [MEDICAL TREATMENT] treatment, the [MEDICAL TREATMENT] nurse should complete the form and return it or other communication to the Center with the patient. 3. Upon return of the patient to the center, a licensed nurse will: 3.1 Review the [MEDICAL TREATMENT] center communication; 3.2 Evaluate/observe the patient; and 3.3 Document the evaluation/observation on the [MEDICAL TREATMENT] Communication Record or state required form. 4. Notify the [MEDICAL TREATMENT] center if the form is not returned with the patient and ask that it be faxed to the center. 4.1 Document notification of [MEDICAL TREATMENT] center regarding return for form or other communication. 5. Maintain the [MEDICAL TREATMENT] Communication Record or state required form in the patient's medical record. f) Infection control The month of (MONTH) (YEAR) infection control monthly line listing review includes twenty-two (22) separate line listings on or after the plan of correction date of 10/11/18. Of these 22 line listings sixteen (16) were incomplete. The infection control monthly line listing includes the following columns: Name Room number admitted Date onset HAI/C ( Hospital or community acquired) Type of Symptoms/Diagnosis Culture/Chest x-ray with Date taken, Site, and Results Treatments with ABT (antibiotic type) and Start date Precaution type Infection resolved (date) On 11/14/18 at 4:00 PM the director of nursing (DON) was asked to complete the missing information on the infection control monthly line listing for (MONTH) (YEAR). This request was made to determine if the information was readily available on other documentation. Approximately forty-five minutes later information was obtained to complete the line listing for three (3) residents. These residents are not included in this listing. The interview ended on 11/14/18 at 5:00 PM. The line listings include; 1. Resident #410 This resident was admitted with possible pneumonia with the date of onset being 10/24/18. The listing did not include information concerning if the resident was on an antibiotic, if a culture or x-ray was obtained, and if the infection was resolved. 2. Resident #411 This resident receiving Bactrim for a hospital acquired infection (HAI), with an start date of 10/19/18. The line listing did not include, what the medication was given for, if a culture or chest x-ray was obtained, the type of precaution, or if the infection was resolved. 3. Resident #305 This resident received [MEDICATION NAME] beginning 10/24/18 [MEDICATION NAME] 10/31/18 for a urinary tract infection [MEDICAL CONDITION].

On 11/15/18 at 11:30 AM the administrator provided an electronic clinical outcomes report for the month of (MONTH) (YEAR). The report includes the numerical number of healthcare acquired; infections, urinary tract infections, pneumonia, [MEDICAL CONDITION], and multi-drug resistant organism (MDRO). The report did not include other tracking information. The facility infection control outcome surveillance and reporting form with a review date of 11/15/18 section 4 includes guidance to facility staff as When an infection is identified, designated staff will document infection on the Infection Control Monthly Line Listing. Section 4.5 also directs staff to Provide information for Monthly Infection Control Report. On 11/15/18 at 12:00 PM the administrator expressed concerns about the facility receiving a tag related to infection control when the revisit did not find specific resident issues concerning infection control.",2020-09-01
731,HILLTOP CENTER,515061,152 SADDLESHOP ROAD,HILLTOP,WV,25855,2018-08-30,880,L,0,1,T9WW11,"**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on observations, staff interview, resident interview, review of facility policies, review of the facility's infection control monthly line listings, review of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) guidelines, the facility failed prevent the spread of infection to the extent possible by implementing contact precautions for residents whose urinary tract infections [MEDICAL CONDITION] included multi-drug resistant organisms. Record review and review of the line listings found five (5) residents identified as having Extended Spectrum Beta lactamase in two (2) months - (MONTH) and (MONTH) (YEAR). (Beta lactamases are enzymes produced by many species of bacteria which destroy one or more antibiotics. It is one of the ways in which bacteria develop resistance.) Observations and staff interviews confirmed contact precautions, in addition to standard precautions, were not employed. Due to the potential for the exposure to other residents, staff, and visitors, an immediate jeopardy to the health and well-being of others was determined. The Administrator and the Director of Nursing were notified of the determination of the immediate jeopardy on 08/29/18 at 2:48 PM and a brief statement of the deficient practice provided. The facility provided an acceptable plan of correction (P[NAME]) at 5:18 PM at which time the immediate jeopardy was removed as implementation of the P[NAME] had occurred. Resident identifiers: #31, #12, #80, #104, #99. After removal of the immediate jeopardy, deficient practices remained at a scope and severity of [NAME] for failure to cohort residents in keeping with infection control. Resident #33, a debilitated resident with a suprapubic catheter was residing in the same room as Resident #31, who had a multi-drug resistant urinary tract infection. Additionally, items such as straws, cups, and plastic utensils were stored under the sink in the medication room where contamination was a potential. This had the potential to affect more than a limited number of residents. Findings include: a) Resident #31 Observation and interview with the resident at 9:05 AM on 08/27/18, found the resident said he was receiving an IV (intravenous) antibiotic for a urinary tract infection. Review of the medical record on 08/29/18 found the physician ordered a urinalysis with culture and sensitivity (UA C&S) on 08/21/18. The lab called the facility with the results of the culture and sensitivity, which identified the urine was positive for ESBL (Extended-Spectrum Beta-Lactamase), Escherichia coli (E-coli), and Proteus Vulgaris, on 08/24/18. At 12:35 PM on 08/29/18, the resident's Nursing Assistant (NA), NA #21, said she was aware the resident had a urinary tract infection. She said the resident was incontinent of urine and wore gloves when providing incontinence care and always washed her hands. At 12: 45 PM on 08/29/18, the resident's Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN). LPN #42 said she was aware the resident had ESBL and E-coli in his urine. She said, We follow standard precautions, which is wearing gloves and hand washing when providing incontinence care. At 12:50 p.m. on 08/29/18, the Director of Nursing (DON) said, We follow the CDC (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention) guidelines and the resident does not require isolation, only standard precautions. The ESBL is contained in the resident's brief. b) Resident #80 The laboratory report for a urine sample collected 08/23/18 with the final report dated 08/25/18, included, This is an ESBL positive organism, it is considered a multi-drug resistant organism. It also confers resistance to the beta-lactam antibiotics such as [MEDICATION NAME], cephalosporins, and aztreonam. According to the lab report, the final results were called to the facility. On 08/26/18, an order was written for, Ertapenem for ESBL in urine. (Ertapenem is a broad spectrum carbapenem antibiotic.) Random observations on 08/27/18, 08/28/18/, 08/29/18, and 08/30/18 did not find signage posted on the resident's door to alert those entering the room to check with the nurse and/or identify additional precautions were needed. c) Resident #104 Review of the Infection Control Monthly Line Listing on 08/29/18 found Resident #104's name listed as having a urinary tract infection [MEDICAL CONDITION]. According to the line listing, the resident was [MEDICATION NAME] 08/20/18. Review of the resident's medical record on 08/29/18 did not find the results of the culture and sensitivity (C&S). At approximately 10:30 AM, the Director of Nursing (DON) was asked for the report for the C&S. The results of the C&S were provided at 12:30 PM. According to the copy of the report provided, the report was faxed to the facility on [DATE] at 12:06 PM, however, the report was dated as final on 08/25/18. The report identified E. Coli ESBL. Random observations on 08/27/18, 08/28/18/, 08/29/18, and 08/30/18 did not find signage posted on the resident's door to alert those entering the room to check with the nurse and/or identify additional precautions were needed. d) Resident #99 Review of the facility's infection control line listing for (MONTH) (YEAR) found this resident also had ESBL in her urine. The resident was ordered Bactrim DS on 07/05/18. The line listing did not indicate the resident was place on contact precautions. The C&S report dated 07/05/18 confirmed the resident had ESBL in her urine. e) Resident #12 A review of Resident #12's medical record at 1:33 p.m. on 08/27/18 found an order for [REDACTED].#12 returned from the hospital. The stop date for this antibiotic was 08/28/18. The reason listed for this medication was ESBL E. coli UTI/Sepsis. Further review of Resident #12's medical record found an Antimicrobial Susceptibility and Organism Report for a local hospital dated 08/17/18 which was reported on 08/22/18. This report indicated Resident #12's blood culture was ESBL positive E. coli. The report indicated the laboratory notified Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) #29 at the facility on 08/22/18 at 10:45 a.m. Observations of Resident #12 at 10:00 a.m. on 08/27/18 found the resident resting in his room. His IV pole and pump were at his bedside and his completed IV bag was still hanging on the pole, but was not running at the time of the observations. There was no signage on the door, nor was there any personal protective equipment (PPE) by the door. There was nothing observed to indicate the resident was on contact precautions on 08/27/18 or 08/28/18, while being actively treated for [REDACTED]. An interview with the Director of Nursing (DON) on 08/29/18 in the afternoon confirmed that Resident #12 was not placed in contact isolation because their infection control policy did not warrant contact isolation for residents with ESBL. Further review of Resident #12's medical record found that on 17 occasions during the seven (7) days Resident #12 was being actively treated for [REDACTED]. Observations of Resident #12's room found that Resident #12 shared a bathroom with Resident #75. A review of Resident #75's medical record on 08/29/18 at 3:00 p.m. found he had a wound vac to an open wound on his coccyx. A review of his activities of daily living (ADL) documentation found that he was continent of both bladder and bowel. A review of the ADL documentation for the time frame of 08/22/18 through 08/28/18 (the time Resident #12 was actively treated for [REDACTED].#75 was continent of urine in the toilet on 18 times and was continent of bowel on 11 occasions. On these occasions, Resident #75, who had an open area to his coccyx, was using a toilet that was shared with Resident #12 who was positive for ESBL in both his blood and his urine. f) Review of the minimum data sets (MDS) for Residents #31, #12, #80, #104, and #99 found only one resident, Resident #104, was admitted since (MONTH) (YEAR). The MDS records did not indicate the other residents had a discharge and/or reentry record identifying a hospital stay prior to having a urine culture identifying ESBL. However, record review identified Resident #12 had been hospitalized [DATE] to 08/21/18, where the ESBL was identified. g) CDC classifies ESBL as a serious threat The list of Serious Threats at https://www.cdc.gov/drugresistance/biggest_threats.html includes: Multidrug-resistant Acinetobacter Drug-resistant Campylobacter Fluconazole-resistant Candida Extended-spectrum Beta-lactamase producing [MEDICATION NAME] [MEDICATION NAME]-resistant [MEDICATION NAME] (VRE) CDC guidelines, Appendix A, includes recommendations for individuals with active ESBL infections be placed on contact precautions. h) The facility provided a copy of its infection control policy/procedure for multi-drug resistant organisms (MDROs). The procedure included to, 3. Clinically document the level of risk for transmission . Instruct staff, patient, and visitors regarding the level of Precautions needed and use of personal protective equipment. No evidence was found to support these elements were implemented. i) According to these findings, Residents #31, #104, #12, and #80 were all being treated with antibiotics for ESBL producing organisms in their urine. On 08/30/18 at 11:22 AM, an interview with a representative of the local health department found the facility had not reported an outbreak of ESBL. j) Due to the potential for the exposure to other residents, staff, and visitors, an immediate jeopardy to the health and well-being of others was determined. The Administrator and the Director of Nursing were notified of the determination of the immediate jeopardy on 08/29/18 at 2:48 PM and a brief statement of the deficient practice provided. The facility provided an acceptable plan of correction (P[NAME]) at 5:18 PM at which time the immediate jeopardy was removed as implementation of the P[NAME] had occurred. k) Facility's Plan of Correction (P[NAME]) Resident #31 and resident #80 was placed in contact isolation by the Director of Nurses/designee immediately upon discovery. Resident #99, resident #104, and resident #12 are no longer receiving treatment, are not symptomatic therefore require standard precautions. All residents of the facility have the potential to be affected. Director of Nurses/designee checked all residents for active cases of ESBL on 8/29/18 to ensure contact precautions were implemented for all residents with ESBL who are receiving active treatment. The Performance Development Specialist (PDS)/designee will provide reeducation regarding placing residents in contact isolation when a resident is actively being treated for [REDACTED]. Licensed nurses not available during this timeframe will be provided reeducation including posttest by the PDS/designee upon return to work. New licensed nurses will be provided education and complete posttest during orientation. The PDS/designee will audit residents upon admission, readmission, and residents with active symptoms of ESBL and randomly thereafter to ensure residents are placed in contact isolation. Trends identified will be reviewed by the PDS/designee monthly at the Quality Improvement Committee (QIC) for any additional follow up and/or inservicing until the issue is resolved and randomly thereafter as determined by the QIC committee. l) After removal of the immediate jeopardy, deficient practices remained at a scope and severity of [NAME] for failure to cohort residents in keeping with infection control. Resident #33, a debilitated resident with a suprapubic catheter was residing in the same room as Resident #31, who had a multi-drug resistant urinary tract infection. Additionally, items such as straws, cups, and plastic utensils were stored under the sink in the medication room where contamination was a potential. This had the potential to affect more than a limited number of residents. m) Resident #33 Resident record reviews and observations found Resident #33, who had a suprapubic catheter and was on comfort measures, was housed with a resident who was receiving IV antibiotics for an active ESBL producing E. Coli infection (an MDRO). The facility's policy/procedure regarding MDROs includes, 7. When cohorting patients with the same MDRO is not possible, place MDRO patients in rooms with patients who are at low risk for acquisition of MDROs and associated adverse outcomes from infection. The facility's policy indicated Resident #33 should not have been cohorted with Resident #31. n) Facility task On 08/28/18 at 9:17 AM, inspection of the 100 and 200 hallway medication room was conducted. The surveyor was accompanied by Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) #90. The cabinet immediately below the sink was observed to contain straws, spoons, and plastic cups. The left side of the cabinet was inaccessible due to a screw that had been placed in the cabinet door. The right side of the cabinet had a hole where a screw had once been located. However, the screw was no longer in place and the cabinet door could be opened freely. LPN #90 stated items should not be stored under the sink due to potential contamination from the sink pipes. She stated she would have the items removed and discarded. On 08/28/18 at 9:20 AM, Nurse-Unit Manager LPN was notified about the items stored under the sink in the 100 and 200 hallway medication room. She stated she would have the items replaced and ensure the screw was replaced in the cabinet door to ensure the door could no longer be opened.",2020-09-01

Immediately after obtaining the temperate reading, observation of inline mercury thermometer located on the hot water tank serving 300 Hall Shower Room revealed a reading of 100 degrees at this time. Observation on 05/01/19 at 08:28 AM in 300 Hall Shower Room revealed fluctuating water temperatures obtained by Maintenance Supervisor #90 to be from 99 degrees to 101 degrees. At the time these temperature readings were obtained, no showers had been given. Prior to water temperature checks, the inline thermometer on the hot water heater serving the 300 Hall Shower Room read 100 degrees. After running the water in the shower for 5 minutes, the inline thermometer on water heater reading dropped to 98 degrees. MS #90 stated we like to keep it below 110 per regulations, I hate to get too hot. We (the facility) turned it down because we got into trouble for it (hot water) being too hot. The MS #90 also stated, On shower days, the hot water does good to keep up, it's a struggle to keep it warm when they shower a lot of residents in a row. At 8:27 AM on 05/01/19 during an interview Registered Nurse (RN) #81 stated, The residents complain to me all the time about the water being too cold in the shower room on 300 hall.

During an additional observation of lunch in the dining room on 04/30/19 at 11:43 AM, staff asked residents about their preferences for drinkware. Some residents chose to have a straw placed directly into a disposable cup or can, but many residents opted for reusable drinkware when given the option, which made the dining room appear more home-like than it had the previous day. d) Oxygen mixer A random observation on 04/29/19 at 11:30 AM, found two (2) oxygen filters on Resident (R) #51's Invacare oxygen mixer covered in white lint or dust.

According to the Resident Assessment Instrument (RAI) manual and the National Pressure Ulcer Advisory Panel (NPUAP) committee the definition of unstageable pressue injury and SDTI as follows: --Unstageable Pressure Injury: Obscured full-thickness skin and tissue loss --Full-thickness skin and tissue loss in which the extent of tissue damage within the ulcer cannot be confirmed because it is obscured by slough or eschar. If slough or eschar is removed, a Stage 3 or Stage 4 pressure injury will be revealed. Stable eschar (i.e. dry, adherent, intact without [DIAGNOSES REDACTED] or fluctuance) on the heel or ischemic limb should not be softened or removed. --Deep Tissue Pressure Injury: Persistent non-blanchable deep red, maroon or purple discoloration Intact or non-intact skin with localized area of persistent non-blanchable deep red, maroon, purple discoloration or [MEDICATION NAME] separation revealing a dark wound bed or blood filled blister. Pain and temperature change often precede skin color changes. Discoloration may appear differently in darkly pigmented skin. This injury results from intense and/or prolonged pressure and shear forces at the bone-muscle interface. The wound may evolve rapidly to reveal the actual extent of tissue injury, or may resolve without tissue loss. If necrotic tissue, subcutaneous tissue, granulation tissue, fascia, muscle or other underlying structures are visible, this indicates a full thickness pressure injury (Unstageable, Stage 3 or Stage 4). Do not use DTPI to describe vascular, traumatic, neuropathic, or dermatologic conditions. An interview with the MDS nurse, on 07/12/17 at 1:10 p.m., found the MDS with ARD of 05/02/17 was coded in error.

However, the incident report and statements from facility staff only mention the interventions of, bed in lowest position and floor mats on the floor beside her bed.

The (floor) aides (nursing assistants) do that now. On 08/01/18 at 8:39 AM, an interview was completed with Nursing Assistant (NA) #34. NA #34 stated she was familiar with Resident #10. I work with his legs, help him stretch some; and his arms, move his arms, (demonstrated abducting and adducting) the shoulders and stretching his fingers. That's about all I do with his arms. Restorative puts splints on his legs and his arms, I don't do that. He has arm splints that go from his elbows down to his hands. A follow up observation of Resident #10 was completed on 08/01/18 at 9:11 AM. Resident #10 was noted to have leg braces on. No hand splints were observed. An interview was completed with Nurse #71 on 08/01/18 at 9:22 AM. Nurse #71 was identified as the unit manager for Resident #10. Nurse #71 said residents were referred to the restorative aide program by therapy staff. She stated residents would be re-evaluated on a schedule that she was not sure of, and a decision would be made on continuing restorative services. She also noted that if a resident had reached their maximum potential, they would be discharged from restorative and I assume we would stop any splints. After reviewing the record of Resident #10, Nurse #71 stated Resident #10 was getting range of motion and splints to his legs, but not to the upper extremities. On 08/01/18 at 9:42 AM, an interview was completed with the Director of Nurses (DON). The DON said, therapy may refer a resident to restorative nursing when therapy is done. We put them on a 4-6 week restorative program and then we re-evaluate. At that time, we may refer them back to therapy, or we may extend the program or do a management program and have the floor nursing assistants pick that (range of motion or splints) up having the floor nurse monitoring. On 07/09(18), (OT #221) did a therapy to restorative evaluation. It said the resident (#10) should get range of motion (ROM) to upper extremities with hand splints. When therapy does the evaluation, it goes into the computer and I (DON) see it under Progress Evaluations. I would write the physician's orders [REDACTED]. For the 07/09(18) referral, I don't see the order was written and no task was done. It wasn't put on restorative's list of things to complete. We would update the care plan when we write the order. He doesn't have an order, a task and no updated care plan for the hand splints. The hand splints would have been hand rolls just in his palms (to prevent contractures of the fingers).",2020-09-01

On 07/31/18 at 9:00 AM, an interview was completed with the facility Administrator. The Administrator stated, If a resident wants privacy, we try to put them in a private room. Most residents like the interaction with a roommate and we try and pair them up with a roommate they would get along with. It's never really come up that the privacy curtains were an issue. If a resident is having visitors or wants extra privacy for the day, we try and get the roommate out of the room or tell the roommate and the staff that the resident is asking for privacy. The Administrator acknowledged the privacy curtain could not provide visual privacy for the resident in the bed next to the window.",2020-09-01

For Resident #99, the facility failed to develop a care plan for a resident who required oxygen usage. Resident identifiers: #86, #55, and #99. Facility census: 101. Findings included: a) Resident #86 During the initial interview, on 08/19/19 at 11:50 AM, Resident #86 was asked if he participated in activities. Resident #86 informed the surveyor that he did not go to activities because he did not like to only participate in church and bingo.

They said these individuals were employed by an agency and they were under the impression the agency had checked the criminal backgrounds prior to them coming to work at their facility. They verified they had not checked to make sure the agency had in fact completed the background checks with the WV CARES system prior to employees working in the building. (Note: WVCARES does the state/federal background checks and all registry checks for the facility.) On 05/17/18 at 7:09 PM, HRM #20 said she could look in the WV CARES system and see where LPN #72 and NAs #66 and #68 had clearance letters in WV CARES. However, HRM #20 did not know how to find the letters from WV CARES showing these three (3) employees were eligible to work in the facility. The facility only had one (1) agency staff member (LPN #71) who had a letter from WV CARES showing that individual's eligibility to work in the facility. When the Center Executive Director and HRM were asked to provide the clearance letters, for LPN #72 and NA #66 and #68, they could not. HRM said, because she did not enter LPN #72, NA #66 and NA #68 into the WVCARES system, she could not get the letters from WVCARES. The facility was given ample time to contact their agency to get this information, but no further information was forthcoming. The Center Executive Director said they had trusted the agency to do the background checks and they were not done. She said she should not have trusted them instead she should have verified they were done. The employee who hired these agency staff members and who was responsible for this verification no longer worked at the facility. The facility's policy included, The Center will screen potential employees for a history of abuse, neglect, or mistreating patients, including attempting to obtain information from previous employers and/or current employers, and checking with the appropriate licensing boards and registries.

The facility's failure to follow its policy, and to obtain or verify background checks were completed through the WVCARES system to determine whether these employees were eligible to work with the nursing home residents, placed all resident of the facility at risk for serious harm. After consultation with the State Agency, a determination of immediate jeopardy was made based on the facility's failure to thoroughly screen the backgrounds of three (3) Licensed Practical Nurses (LPNs) and eleven (11) nurse aides (NAs).

After the document was signed, by both the Physician and the DON, the [MEDICATION NAME] 10mg, which is a [MEDICAL CONDITION] medication, continued to be administered to the Resident three (3) times daily by the Facility Staff. Also the facility's RPh failed to recognize the prescription error when reviewing the Medication Regimen Review (MRR) each month which resulted in the Resident continuing to receive twice the amount of [MEDICAL CONDITION] medication.

Findings include: a) Resident #188 On 03/21/17 at 8:35 a.m., Resident #188 was observed sitting in the hallway outside of her room with an enteral tube feeding infusing. The bottle of nutrition infusing was uncovered, exposing a label with the type of nutrition, the resident's name, the start date and the start time. Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) #151 and Nurse Aide (NA) #172 were in the hall near Resident #188 upon discovery and were interviewed at that time. They were asked if enteral feeding bottles were usually left uncovered. NA #172 said, They are not, and then covered up the bottle with a cover that was already hanging on the pole with the enteral feeding bottle. LPN #151 agreed with NA #172. The Director of Nursing was interviewed, on 03/21/17 at 3:00 p.m., and she said the tube feeding bottles are not supposed to be uncovered. b) Resident #99 During the initial tour observation, on 03/12/17 between 5:00 p.m. and 6:00 p.m., an odor of urine was present at the doorway of Resident #99. A subsequent observation on 03/20/17 at 12:55 p.m., again revealed a strong odor of urine. A follow-up observation at 2:54 p.m., with Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) #55, confirmed the odor of urine was present, but no evidence of incontinence was visible. During a random observation, on 03/21/17 at 9:16 p.m., a strong odor of urine/ammonia was present into the hallway. Resident #99's bed was visible from the doorway and the covers were pulled up from the side of the bed. The fitted sheet appeared wet with a brown border along the edge. While observing, family members exited the facility via the hallway. Multiple staff members walked past the door and did not enter to provide care. The staff passed ice, entered in and out of other resident's rooms, and stopped to converse with the nurse. Upon inquiry, at 10:03 p.m., LPN #17 confirmed a strong odor of urine into the hallway, and Resident #99's sheet discolored with a wet appearance outlined with a brown border. Nurse Aide (NA) #114 asked Resident #99 if she wanted to take a shower and the resident said yes. Without explaining, the NA removed the resident's covers and pulled her legs toward the side of the bed. The resident changed her mind, tried to pull the covers back over her and when NA #114 attempted to intervene, Resident #99 struck at her.

The NA said Resident #99 had been a health care professional, and would hide her soiled brief, as though she might be embarrassed. She voiced the resident would usually allow staff to assist her if she trusted them and they were patient with her. During a discussion with the center nurse executive (CNE) at 11:45 p.m., she said staff should have checked the resident at least every two (2) hours and should not have left her wet for 45 minutes before offering to change her. The CNE acknowledged the lingering strong odor of urine and failure to provide care in a timely manner did not promote the resident's dignity. .",2020-09-01

The strips were covered with a line of blackish colored dried clotted blood and brown discoloration spreading out over the steri-strips. Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) #71, interviewed, on 03/21/17 at 2:04 p.m., said the wound bed was not covered with a dressing because the wound bed was not open, and was approximated and secured with steri-strips. The nurse said the resident would pull off a dressing, but not steri-strips, even though placed across the wound bed to form a dressing appearance. Upon inquiry, the LPN said the wound care protocol had been followed, and if the wound drained/bled staff would notify the physician. LPN #71 reviewed the Treatment Administration Record (TAR) and voiced a skin integrity form (SIR) had not been completed. Progress notes, reviewed with the LPN, provided no information about the size of the wound or noted drainage/bleeding. She further added that the wound nurse reviewed all wounds and would have documented the wound in the electronic medical record (EMR). She reviewed the change of condition assessment and verbalized it did not provide a description of the wound bed. Assistant Director of Nursing (ADON) #61, interviewed, at 3:01 p.m. on 03/21/17, said the wound nurse would have assessed the wound and may have documentation. The ADON asked for the wound nurse, then went to Resident #106's room to look at his wound. Registered Nurse (RN) #131, the wound nurse, entered the room. When asked how she documented the resident's wound (when he got it and about the SIR), she said, What wound? Without donning gloves, the nurse pulled up the resident's shirt sleeve, exposing the steri-strips covered with clotted dried blood. Each nurse denied the blood had been present earlier in the day, and had not bled since 03/14/17, or it would have been noted. The wound care guideline, provided by the Nurse Practice Educator (NPE) noted treatment to include approximating the wound when possible, cleanse with wound cleanser, apply sure prep to peri-wound skin and apply [MEDICATION NAME] Gentle - change every seven (7) days and as needed (PRN). The NPE voiced the dressing was not utilized because steri-strips were applied and it was a non-draining wound. The center nurse executive (CNE), interviewed at 4:31 p.m., said the nurse had cleaned the wound and redressed it. She agreed the resident's shirt should have had secretions if it had bled after care that morning. During the observation with the CNE, LPN#71 and Nurse Aide (NA) #172, without donning gloves, LPN #71 raised the resident's shirt sleeve, exposing the steri-strips which had been cleansed removing the blood clots, with residual brown discoloration present. Upon inquiry as to how long the clots had been present, NA #172 said they were there since she worked with the resident, and further added they were present all (had worked dayshift) on 03/20/17. The CNE said she had not seen the wound and instructed the nurse to place a cover dressing over the wound bed to secure the secretions. With further discussion she related the resident was on anti-coagulant therapy, which would more easily cause the wound to bleed. She acknowledged the nurse(s) should recognized and reassessed the resident's condition and changed the treatment.",2020-09-01

In addition, the facility continued a PRN [MEDICAL CONDITION] medication for a time period exceeding 14 days without review. This was true for one (1) of five (5) residents reviewed for unnecessary medications. Resident identifier: #87. Facility census: 117. Findings include: a) Resident #87 Record review on 07/17/19 at 1:55 PM, found the resident was admitted to the facility on [DATE]. Review of the medication administration record (MAR) found the resident was receiving Alrazolam ([MEDICATION NAME]) 0.5 milligrams, every 12 hours as needed (PRN) for anxiety, prescribed on 06/14/19. (The MAR noted the start date of the medication was 06/14/19, the day before admission to the facility. The medication was not administered on 6/14/19. Information from the admission, minimum data set (MDS) and the nurses notes indicated the resident was admitted to the facility on [DATE].) On 07/17/19 at 3:58 PM, the director of nursing (DON) was asked where nursing staff document non-pharmacological interventions. The DON stated the interventions would be documented in the nursing notes. The DON reviewed the MAR and the nursing notes with the surveyor. The DON confirmed the resident received the [MEDICATION NAME] on the following days in (MONTH) 2019 without any non-pharmacological interventions attempted before administration: 06/17/19, 06/18/19, 06/21/19, 06/24/19, 06/26/19, and 06/27/19.

This deficient practice was found during a random opportunity for discovery and had the potential to affect more than an isolated number of residents. Facility census: 118 Findings included: a) Initial Tour On 07/15/19 at 10:54 AM an initial tour of the facility's main kitchen and nourishment rooms began with Dietary Manager (DM) #26. The tour concluded at 11:20 AM. At 11:00 AM, the shelves in the reach-in refrigerator were found to be rusty. The rust on the shelves was sticky and dripping, and it rubbed off the shelves with ease. At the time of the finding, DM #26 agreed that the dripping rust on the shelves could drip into the open spouts of the drink pitchers on the shelf below. At 11:02 AM stacks of bowls and plates in the dish room were noted to be stored non-inverted, leaving the insides susceptible to dust and debris. At the time of the finding, DM #26 confirmed that the bowls and plates were clean. When asked why these clean dishes were not stored inverted, DM #26 stated that the kitchen staff did not store dishes inverted. Rather, he said, when it was time to use the dishes, staff would remove the dish on top of each stack and only use the dishes underneath to serve residents. DM #26 was then asked for a policy supporting this practice. DM #26 stated he did not have such a policy. At 11:07 AM a 128 ounce can of grape jelly was found in the dry storage room of the kitchen. The can was found to have a large, sharp, creased dent near its bottom seal. DM #26 said that the dent likely happened during shipping before it was delivered to the facility. He stated that when cans arrived at the facility damaged, they were still accepted by the facility and subsequently placed in the dry storage area for service. He stated that any dented cans in the storage area were thrown away by staff just before being used for resident service. DM #26 was then asked for the facility's policy regarding dented cans. A review of the policy, titled Dry Storage, found that, Dented cans that are deemed unusable are separated from stock and clearly marked for return. At 11:11 AM the microwave in the North nourishment room was found to be dirty. The inside of the microwave contained splatters of unidentified substances on all surfaces. At the time of the finding, DM #26 agreed that the microwave was dirty. At 11:12 AM the refrigerator temperature log in the North nourishment room was found to be blank for 07/09/19 and 07/10/19. At the time of the finding, DM #26 agreed that the temperature log should have been filled out for 07/09/19 and 07/10/19. DM #26 was asked for a copy of the log. However, no copy was received prior to exit. Also at 11:12 AM a half pint container of milk was found in the North nourishment room refrigerator. The container had been opened, but not marked with the date it had been opened. At the time of the finding, DM #26 agreed that the container should have been dated when it was opened. At 11:14 AM a box with a fast food label on it was found in the North nourishment room refrigerator. The box was not labeled with a date or a resident's name. When asked if this container should have been labeled, DM #26 stated, I have no idea. During the survey, a review of the facility's policy for food brought in by visitors revealed that, Food items that require refrigeration must be labeled with patient's/resident's name and date the food was brought in. Also at 11:14 AM, the shelves in the North nourishment room refrigerator were found to be coated in a sticky substance. A pitcher full of liquid sitting on one (1) of these shelves remained adhered to the shelf when force was applied to move it. At the time of the finding, DM #26 agreed that the refrigerator needed to be cleaned. On 07/16/19 at 8:42 AM the above information was discussed with the facility's Director of Nursing (DoN). No further information was provided prior to exit.",2020-09-01
