Son indicated he tried to contact their office to reschedule, and would need to try and reschedule that appointment. (It did not specify if son or facility were to reschedule appointment.) The clinical record lacked documentation that the resident followed up with a urologist. Resident 16 had the following UTIs since admission: UTI 1 On 3/26/25 at 1:36 P.M., blood was noted in the resident's catheter bag. An order was received to collect a urine specimen for a urinalysis (UA) and culture and sensitivity (C&S). The urine culture, resulted 3/29/25 at 9:39 A.M., indicated >100,000 Colony Forming Units per milliliter (CFU/ML) Staphylococcus epidermidis (bacteria). Macrobid 100 mg twice daily for seven days was ordered on 3/31/25 for a UTI. Bactrim DS was placed on hold for duration of Macrobid, then restarted. UTI 2 On 4/14/25 at 5:27 A.M., a new order was received to obtain a urine specimen for a UA and C&S for blood in the urine. The urine culture, resulted 4/17/25 at 8:08 A.M., indicated >100,000 CFU/ML Citrobacter freundii (bacteria) and >100,000 CFU/ML Pseudomonas fluorescens (bacteria). The clinical record lacked documentation of the physician reviewing the results. The resident remained on prophylactic Bactrim DS. UTI 3 On 6/17/25 at 1:45 P.M., a urine specimen was reported as collected 6/14/25 at 5:51 P.M., because resident had recently pulled out catheter with balloon intact because it was causing her pain. The urine culture, resulted 6/17/25 at 8:48 A.M., indicated > 100,000 CFU/ML Klebsiella oxytoca (Extended Spectrum Beta-Lactamase or ESBL organism). Macrobid 100 mg BID for 7 days for UTI. Bactrim DS was placed on hold for the duration of Macrobid. On 6/20/25 at 11:13 A.M., catheter and incontinence care for Resident 16 performed by Certified Nurse Aide (CNA) 22 and the Interim Director of Nursing (IDON) was observed. CNA 22 was wearing a gown and gloves and was on the left side of the resident with 2 basins of water on the bedside table. Resident was laying on her back in the bed. The IDON washed her hands with a three second lather and put on her gown and gloves. The CNA and IDON both unfastened the incontinence pad. CNA 22 had the resident touch the wash cloth after it was dipped in soapy water to feel the temperature, used that wash cloth to wipe the resident's left upper leg and groin area, and placed the soiled wash cloth on the right side foot of the bed on the mattress touching the resident's sheet and sock. CNA 22 repeated that process on the right side. The resident's skin on her groin was red and had pinpoint red bumps throughout. CNA 22 wiped the outside of the labia but did not open the resident's labia to cleanse the inside area. CNA 22 wiped the catheter tubing from just outside the labia as far as she could reach. The resident's groin was rinsed and wiped dry. The resident was rolled to her right side and CNA 22 opened the bedside dresser, grabbed a package of wipes, and wiped the resident's buttocks with a visible bowel movement. The resident's skin on her buttocks was red and had pinpoint red bumps throughout. Without changing gloves or performing hand hygiene, CNA 22 placed a new incontinence pad (touched the inside of the pad) and draw sheet under the resident. Once the incontinence pad was pulled through, they fastened the resident's incontinence pad. The soiled linens at the foot of the bed were placed into a trash bag. They pulled up the resident's pants, pulled the resident up in bed, put pillows under the feet, pulled up the sheet and blankets to cover the resident, adjusted the bed with the controller, and placed a call light by the resident (touched the part that the resident would use). The IDON washed her hands with a 15 second lather. CNA 22 removed her gloves and put on new ones without sanitizing her hands. She moved the bedside table over to the resident, gave the resident her television remote, grabbed a bag of chips and other resident items from the top of the bedside dresser, and placed them on the bedside table. CNA 22 removed her gloves and gown and washed her hands with an 11 second lather. Both staff exited the room without changing the resident's socks or blankets that were in direct contact with soiled wash cloths from the incontinence care. During an interview with the Infection Preventionist (IP) on 6/23/25 at 2:11 P.M., She indicated when washing their hands, staff should be lathering hands with soap for at least 20 seconds, should change their gloves and sanitize hands between dirty to clean tasks. They should not be touching resident items, etc with soiled gloves and the soiled wash cloths should be placed directly into a trash bag and not on the resident's bed. If the soiled cloths came into contact with the resident's socks and blankets, then they should have been changed. During an interview on 6/25/25 at 10:44 A.M., Regional Clinical Support 3 indicated urinary catheters were only changed as needed and not routinely. She indicated the resident's son traveled internationally for work. She indicated after an internal investigation the previous night, the resident had a history of bladder cancer but was released from oncology in 2023. She had not followed up with urology since then because she hadn't had any problems. She indicated the son canceled the 3/19/25 appointment and rescheduled it to 4/15/25 but did not communicate that to the facility. He then canceled the appointment on 4/15/25 without rescheduling. At the time Regional Clinical Support 3 contacted the urologist, the resident did not have any appointments scheduled for follow up. During an interview on 6/25/25 at 11:40 A.M., the Social Services Director (SSD) indicated they relied on family to communicate and nursing judgement for urgency and need of follow up appointments. On 6/23/25 at 2:45 P.M., the Administrator provided a current Urinary Catheter Care Policy, revised 5/11/16, that indicated . to perform the procedure . put on gloves . wash the resident's genitalia and perineum thoroughly . place soiled linen into designated container . remove gloves . wash and dry your hands thoroughly . put on clean gloves . with non dominant hand separate the labia of the female resident.

Bed in lowest position, initiated 2/10/25. Call light attendant to bed, initiated 2/10/25. Call don't fall sign, initiated 12/23/25. Fall Risk Assessments from 11/25/24 to present indicated the resident was at high risk for falls. The clinical record lacked documentation of the call light attendant batteries being monitored by staff to make sure they were working. Progress notes were reviewed and indicated Resident 2 had the following 3 falls: Fall 1 On 12/23/24 at 7:20 A.M., a Certified Nurse Aide (CNA) found the resident seated on the floor in her room. The progress note (at that time) indicated resident had right hand/finger pain rated a 5 out of 10 on the pain scale, with painful Range of Motion (ROM). The following day after the fall, the resident reported edema and pain to right hand fingers. Resident was noted to have a new onset of increased edema and pain to right hand fingers. An x-ray was ordered of the right hand and showed an acute oblique coronal fracture through the diaphysis and distal metaphysis of the proximal phalanx of the middle finger, with approximately 3.4 millimeter(mm) cortical step-off at the dorsal ulnar fracture margin (a recent broken bone in the middle finger, specifically in the shaft and lower portion of the bone closest to the palm. The fracture line was angled and also ran through the bone from front to back. The broken pieces were displaced, with a noticeable offset of about 3.4 mm). At that time, the care plan was updated to include a call don't fall sign. Fall 2 On 2/8/25 at 2:30 P.M., a CNA found the resident on the floor in her room beside the bed. No injury was noted on the post fall assessment. New interventions were to put bed in lowest position and add a call light attendant to her bed. Fall 3 On 3/23/25 at 1:23 P.M. a CNA found the resident on the floor in her room beside her bed. The Post Fall Assessment, dated 3/24/25, indicated new measures to be taken were to put bed in lowest position and rearrange room. The Interdisciplinary Team (IDT) Note, dated 3/25/25, indicated The call light attendant was not attached at the time of the fall and did not ring to alert staff that she was in need of help. No injury was noted. The new intervention was to replace the call light attendant batteries. During an interview on 6/25/25 at 10:02 A.M., Regional Consultant 3 indicated the call light attendant batteries were replaced after the fall but the reason for the fall was impulsiveness and room clutter, so after that, they rearranged her room as the new intervention. During an interview on 6/25/25 at 10:13 A.M., Regional Consultant 6 indicated the call don't fall sign should have been in the resident's room or bathroom. At that time, she had another staff member go look for the sign and it was on the back of the bathroom door that was open during observations and not visible. On 6/24/25 at 8:00 A.M., Regional Consultant 3 provided a Fall Management Program Policy, dated 5/31/17, that indicated [facility company] strives to maintain a hazard free environment, mitigate fall risk factors, and implement preventative measures 3.1-45(a)

Five residents were reviewed in Stage 2 for falls with 3 falls resulting in fractures, Resident #80, #54 and #41. The extended survey of 3 additional residents reviewed, indicated one added concern of Resident #33 for facility noncompliance to ensure the resident had adequate supervision to prevent falls. This resulted in substandard quality of care. Resident # 80, Resident # 54, Resident #41, Resident # 33 Findings include: 1. The clinical record of Resident # 80 was reviewed on 2/11/13 at 2 P.M. Resident #80 had been admitted to the facility on [DATE]. [DIAGNOSES REDACTED]. An MDS (minimum data set assessment) dated 8/13/12, indicated the following for the resident: cognition score of 11, which indicated moderately impaired cognition; bed mobility and transfer skills indicated the resident required extensive assistance (resident involved in activity, staff provided weight bearing support) for these tasks. An MDS dated [DATE], indicated the resident's total cognition score was a 10, which indicated moderately impaired cognition. Bed mobility and transfer skills remained the same as the 8/13/12 assessment. On 2/12/13 at 10:07 A.M., the ADON (Assistant Director of Nursing) was interviewed. She indicated from 4/21/12 to 2/4/13, the resident had 10 falls. She indicated the fall on 1/21/13 resulted in a fractured hip. On 2/13/13 at 1 P.M., the DON (Director of Nursing) was interviewed. She indicated prior to the first fall, the resident had a patient protector alarm at all times (PPA) (this alarm has a tab which is attached by a string with one end to the resident and the other end attached to the alarm box), self releasing alarmed seat belt in the wheelchair (wc) and bed in the lowest position. At that time, the DON provided copies of the Fall Circumstance, Assessment and Intervention (FCAI) form for each fall. The DON also provided her summary of each of the resident's falls. The information provided included, but was not limited to, the following information for each fall: Fall #1 on 4/21/12 at 9:50 P.M.: Resident was found on floor in her room; prior to fall had been in bed; "Safety equipment in place and functioning at time of incident? No"; "Pressure pad alarm functioning when res (resident) placed into bed. Alarm not sounding when res found on floor, alarm on. New alarm box installed." The DON's summary indicated the following: "Alarm in place, alarm connected an (sic) on, alarm functioning correctly but not sounding..." The intervention added in place after this fall was the bed against the wall and mat to the floor. The PPA at all times and self release alarming seatbelt (SRASB) and bed in lowest position continued. Fall #2 on 7/3/12 at 9 P.M.: Resident found on floor in her bedroom; Resident hit her head, ice was applied; was transferring herself from her wheelchair at time of fall; Wheel chair alarms were sounding. The intervention added after the fall was "re education" to the resident and a room monitor at all times (a auditory type monitor), which was placed in the room. "Safety equipment in place and functioning, yes." Upon interview at that time, the DON indicated staff did not respond to the alarm in time to prevent the resident from falling. The SRASB and PPA (at all times) and bed in lowest position also continued. Fall #3 on 7/13/12 at 9:45 P.M.: Resident found on her knees beside her bed, on the mat, praying. The current interventions included, but not limited to, the following: PPA, SRASB. The DON indicated at that time, the current interventions prevented injury. She also indicated the intervention added to the CNA assignment was to offer the resident time to pray. The FCAI form indicated the prevention update was to "re-educate res to ask for help before she gets up to pray." This form also indicated the safety equipment was in place and functioning at time of the incident. This form also indicated the "alarm sounding..." The bed in lowest position, SRASB, room monitor and PPA (at all times) continued. Fall #4 on 8/3/12 at 11:15 P.M.: the resident was found on the floor on mat at bedside, reaching for water on nightstand. She rolled out of bed in lowest position. PPA on and functioning. The DON indicated the new intervention added was to provide water on a stool by the bed and begin 1 hour bedchecks at night as a nursing measure. The prior prevention interventions continued. Fall #5 on 9/4/12 at 4:05 P.M.: Resident found on the floor in her room. Fall resulted in an abrasion to her left forearm. Resident was transferring herself from her wheelchair. The DON indicated the resident had returned to her room from the beauty shop without the alarms connected (SRASB and PPA). She indicated the alarms were in place but not reapplied after being in the beauty shop. The new intervention in place after this fall, was to educate the beautician to ensure alarms were connected/notify staff when resident returned to room. The DON indicated at that time, the resident's hourly bed checks at night were discontinued on 9/5/12 because the resident was sleeping through the night. Fall #6 on 9/14/12 at 2:20 P.M.: That was a witnessed fall. The resident was at the nurses station in her wheelchair. The resident attempted to transfer herself. Alarms in place but not on/sounding.
