14 PINE LODGE 515001 405 STANAFORD ROAD BECKLEY WV 25801 2017-06-02 312 D 0 1 ELSQ11 **NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on observation, resident interview, medical record review, and staff interview, the facility failed to provide necessary services to maintain good grooming for two (2) of thirty-two (32) sampled residents. Resident #117 had unshaven facial hair. Resident #76 had long unkempt hair, was unshaven, and wore the same clothing on successive days. Resident identifiers: #117 and #76. Facility census: 116. Findings include: a) Resident #117 Observation on 05/16/17 at 2:16 p.m. found this [AGE] year old resident had numerous long white hairs on her chin and lower jaw area. On 05/23/17, review of the most recent quarterly minimum data set (MDS), with an assessment reference date (ARD) 04/13/17, found her Brief Interview for Mental Status (BIMS) score was three (3), indicating severe cognitive impairment. She required limited assistance with personal hygiene. Review of the resident's care plan found a focus statement identifying she was at risk for decreased ability to perform activities of daily living (ADL) functions due to generalized weakness, fluctuation in cognition/dementia with behaviors, and multiple other disease processes. Interventions included to provide assistance as needed, as the ADLs might fluctuate. Observation on 05/23/17 at 12:45 p.m. found she still had long white hairs on her chin and lower jaw area. When asked about the resident's chin whiskers, Nurse Aide (NA) #59 replied that just this morning he commented that the resident's beard was longer than his. He said he would shave her right away, and he did. During an interview on 05/23/17 at 4:20 p.m., the administrator said this resident's ADL abilities fluctuated due to her behaviors and dementia. No further information was provided about the resident's facial hair. b) Resident #76 A Stage 1 observation on 05/15/17 at 1:47 p.m., revealed Resident #76 was unshaven, and his hair was long, uncombed and unclean. Another observation on 05/16/17 at 8:30 a.m., revealed his beard growth remained unshaved. On 05/17/17 at 3:24 p.m., the resident's hair remained long and disheveled, but he had been shaved. The nurse said the hospice aide had provided care. An observation on 05/23/2017 at 9:09 a.m., found Resident #76 in bed awake, watching a game show on his roommate's television. The fingernails on his right hand had dark brown debris beneath them. His hair was uncombed, and he had not been shaved. When asked how often he would like to be shaved, he replied he would like shaved right now. The resident voiced he preferred to be shaved daily. At 11:56 a.m., the resident had been shaved, and his hair combed. Another observation at 2:25 p.m. revealed his nails had been clipped and cleaned. Nurse Aide (NA) #135, on 05/23/17 at 2:28 p.m., said the resident had gotten weak and now staff did most of his care. She verbalized the hospice aide had provided his care this date. The minimum data set (MDS) with an assessment reference date (ARD) of 05/15/15 indicated Resident #76 required extensive assistance with dressing, eating, toilet use and personal hygiene. The assessment indicated the resident had impairment on both sides of his upper and lower extremities. The resident received hospice services for end of life care related to end stage [MEDICAL CONDITIONS]. The care plan, revised on 05/10/17, noted Resident #76 required assistance with activities of daily living (ADLs) with a goal to improve current level of ADL functions by next review. A hospice nurse aide (NA) provided care two (2) times a week. Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) #62, interviewed on 05/24/17 at 1:26 p.m., said the resident was very noncompliant, but most of the time would let staff provide care if asked. She said the nurse would re-direct him if he refused for the nurse aides. An observation with the interim clinical nurse educator (CNE) on 05/24/17 at 4:10 p.m., revealed Resident #76 was still wearing the same clothing placed on him by the hospice NA on 05/23/17. During an observation on 06/01/17 at 11:27 a.m., Resident #76 was sitting in the dining room for lunch. His hair had been cut and he was clean shaven. The resident said he preferred his hair cut short. During a discussion with the CNE on 06/01/17 at 6:30 p.m., she said the facility was responsible to care for the resident on the days the hospice aide did not come to the facility. She voiced the resident had a decline, was dependent upon staff for care, and the resident should have been shaved by the facility nurse aides on the days a hospice staff member was not in the building. 2020-09-01
