F677D · No harm, potential for more than minimal, isolated

Based on interviews, clinical record reviews, and facility documentation, it was found that the facility staff failed to ensure residents were provided with necessary services to maintain good nutrition, grooming, and personal and oral hygiene for one resident in a survey sample of 25 residents. The findings included: For Resident #190, the facility failed to provide timely incontinent care for a resident with dementia and incontinence. On April 22, 2024, at approximately 2:00 PM, an interview was conducted with Resident #190's representative, who stated that on July 1, 2023, Resident #190 was found sitting in her wheelchair and was obviously wet and smelled of feces. The representative stated it was evident she had not been changed for a long time. When she complained to staff, she was told, Lunch trays have to be picked up first before we can make rounds to change people. Although interviews with current residents revealed that things are getting better, a review of the grievance log and the Resident Council minutes reflected that during that time frame (June-July 2023), there were many complaints of a lack of incontinent care. A review of the grievance logs revealed the following: 1. On June 12, 2023, Resident #32 complained to the social worker that when he asked to use the restroom, he was told by a CNA to just use his brief. The grievance was acknowledged and staff was educated. 2. On June 13, 2023, a resident complained that he did not have his call bell within reach and was calling for help for 5 hours overnight. The grievance was acknowledged and staff was educated to ensure call bells were in reach and making rounds. 3. On June 16, 2023 - A resident complained that Staff is taking up to 2 hours to answer call lights. Staff was educated on customer service and timely answering of call lights. 4. On June 28, 2023, a resident complained that they did not receive ADL care in a timely manner. The resident stated that he used the call bell multiple times, and a family member called the facility 3 times on that day. The complaint was acknowledged and staff was educated on timely answering of call lights 5. On July 12, 2023, Resident #27 complained that she only gets changed 1 time per shift if she doesn't have her 2 regular CNAs. On April 25, 2024, an interview with the Administrator revealed that the facility identified the issue and held a Town Hall Meeting on July 19, 2023, where Customer Service was among the topics discussed. The facility provided a QAPI document identifying the problem; however, they did not have a documented plan for performance improvement identifying all at-risk residents, monitoring/auditing, and an expected completion date. While the grievances identified responsible staff members and the facility addressed them, there was no evidence of a comprehensive plan to prevent recurrence. Despite acknowledging the issue and taking some corrective actions, the facility failed to implement a structured plan for improvement and monitoring, as well as a completion date, thus rendering them ineligible for past non-compliance status for this tag. On April 25, 2024, the Administrator was made aware of the concerns, and no further information was provided.

F697D · No harm, potential for more than minimal, isolated

Based on interviews, clinical record review, and facility documentation, it was determined that the facility staff failed to ensure that pain management services were provided to residents who required such services, specifically for Resident #190, within a survey sample of 25 residents. The findings included: For Resident #190, the facility staff failed to implement physician orders regarding pain medication / pain management. Resident #190 was admitted on [DATE], with various diagnoses including CKD (Chronic Kidney Disease), DJD (degenerative joint disease) status post right total knee replacement, dementia, depression, anxiety, COPD (Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease), restless leg syndrome, hearing loss, history of breast cancer, history of uterine cancer, and history of scoliosis with spinal fusion.

An interview with LPN C on the afternoon of 4/23/24, revealed that if the medication was not available, the facility would set the start date for the next day when pharmacy could bring it. When asked if this meant the resident was without pain medication until the medication arrived the following day, LPN C stated that Residents usually have an order for Tylenol that they can use. LPN C was asked if she felt that Tylenol may was adequate pain control for all types of pain and she stated that it was not. A note from the Medical Director on June 30, 2024, indicated that Resident #190 had Pain associated with the injury that was improved with Tramadol but did not seem to last the prescribed 12-hour interval.

Bathing and dressing are opportunities for staff to monitor for and report any new skin impairment noted during care. Resident #70's impaired skin integrity care plan dated 10/4/17 was reviewed. The Focus included Pressure ulcer right heel- under TX (treatment). Interventions included administer supplements and treatments as ordered (10/4/17), assess/ record/ monitor wound healing weekly (8/10/18), Assist with turning and repositioning (10/4/17), Braden scale quarterly (10/4/17), Encourage nutrition/ hydration (10/4/17), float heels (10/4/17), monitor for and report any new skin impairment noted during care (10/4/17). On 8/29/18 at 9:08 a.m. the survey team observed Resident #70's wound care provided by Licensed Practical Nurse H (LPN H). Upon entrance to the room, Resident #70 was lying in bed. The heels up cushion was on top of a regular pillow. Resident #70's heels were not touching the mattress. She was not wearing socks. LPN H removed the dressing and performed the wound care per physician order. Issues with hand hygiene and infection control were observed. The heel wound was observed to be approximately the size of a dime, pink in color with a thin, white center approximately 1 cm x .3 cm in size. Minimal drainage was noted in the wound. The peri-wound appeared pink. The wound edges were intact. LPN H stated the wound appeared to be healing. She stated it looked better than it did the week before. On 8/30/18 at 10:30 a.m., the Administrator, Director of Nursing (DON) and Corporate Nurse were notified of the concern with the stage for which Resident #70's heel wound was first identified. It was reviewed that the wound was first identified with necrosis and eschar. The DON and Corporate Nurse stated that there was an issue with the Pressure Ulcer Wound Rounds form. They stated that due to a lack of wound description choices on the form, staff often chose the descriptors of black and eschar to describe a deep tissue injury because there was no appropriate choice. It was reviewed with the facility staff that the other form, the Weekly Skin Integrity Review form, included a text box where the nurse could free type in a description. The Registered Nurse who completed the Weekly Skin Integrity Review form for Resident #70 typed in the word necrotic. She also choose the words eschar and black on the Pressure Ulcer Wound Rounds form. It was reviewed that the wound descriptions on both forms were the same. The DON was asked to identify the stage of a wound that would have necrotic tissue. She referred to the facility document titled Wound Classification Guide and stated a wound with necrosis would be unstageable. The guide referenced the National Pressure Ulcer Advisory Panel (NPUAP) definition for Unstageable Pressure Injury, see below. Guidance on pressure wound staging provided by the NPUAP website located at http://www.npuap.org/resources/educational-and-clinical-resources/npuap-pressure-injury-stages/ was accessed on 9/5/18 at 11:19 a.m 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. During the interview, it was also reviewed with the facility staff that no weekly skin checks had been performed for two months between 5/11/18 and 7/18/18. The DON was asked to explain the facility's process for monitoring skin. She stated that the weekly skin check was supposed to be completed on the Weekly Skin Integrity Review form by the nurse. The floor nurses were assigned to specific residents. If a Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN ) identified a skin issue during the weekly skin check, the LPN was supposed to report to the Registered Nurse (RN) so the RN could stage the wound. The RN would also put a treatment in place according to the facility document Skin and Wound Care Guidelines and the doctor. The DON stated that the facility did not use a wound care doctor. The floor nurses completed wound care treatment. The DON stated that wounds were measured weekly. The facility staff were asked to submit any documentation they wanted to be reviewed by the survey team related to Resident #70's right heel wound. On 8/30/18 at 3:20 p.m., the DON and Corporate Nurse stated that they had identified prior to the survey that weekly skin checks were not being done timely and wound dressings were not consistently being completed. When asked why the weekly skin checks were not being completed, the DON stated that there were a lot of new staff in the building and there were issues with the case load per nurse. They stated that they completed a 100% skin sweep on 8/24/18- 8/27/18.

And on her interim care plan, Resident #3 was care planned to require one person assistance for bed mobility and her activities of daily living. One staff member was assisting with bed mobility and bathing- the staff member left the side of the bed; Resident #3 rolled off the bed to the floor, breaking her leg in two places. Resident #3, a female, was admitted to the facility 2/13/13. Her [DIAGNOSES REDACTED]. Resident #3 was discharged to the hospital on [DATE] and did not return to the facility. Resident #3's 5 day Medicare assessment with an ARD (assessment reference ) date of 2/18/13 was reviewed. She was coded as having no memory deficits and was able to make her own daily life decisions. She was also coded as requiring extensive assistance of two staff members for bed mobility and extensive assistance of one staff member for bathing and dressing. Resident #3 was coded as having range of motion deficits for both lower extremities and as not being transferred out of her bed during the ARD period. Her weight was coded as 354 pounds and she was 60 inches tall. Review of Resident #3's interim care plan revealed, upon admission, a care plan was developed that included Resident #3 requiring an assist of one staff member to bathe, dress, eat, toilet, ambulate or transfer and bed mobility. The "NURSE TECH INFORMATION KARDEX," a tool used by the CNAs (certified nursing assistants) to provide care for Resident #3, revealed one staff member was to provide assistance with bed mobility and personal hygiene. Documentation on the "ADL FLOW RECORD", the form the CNAs used to document the care required by Resident #3, revealed Resident #3 required extensive assistance of two staff members for bed mobility on 2/14 and 2/15/12. Documentation was evident she also required extensive assistance of two staff for toileting during her stay at the facility. Upon admission, Resident #3 was ordered to be on bed rest after having a surgical repair of a decubitus ulcer on her back. While PT (physical therapy) was not ordered, OT (occupational therapy) was and an evaluation was conducted on 2/15/13. The OT recommended for "2 people in room" to be utilized during all care. When interviewed, Other B, the OT staff member that conducted the initial assessment and trained staff for the recommendations stated on 3/7/13 at 10:08 a.m., after evaluating Resident #3, she recalled Resident #3 was a large lady with good upper body movement. She recalled her recommendations were to protect her skin and prevent further skin breakdown and to promote healing of the surgical repair of her wound. Other B stated she felt that two staff members were necessary to prevent further damage to Resident #3's skin. Other B further stated, after her evaluation, she developed a plan including goals and strategies to include two staff to assist Resident #3. Other B stated she educated staff on 2/15 and 2/18/13 for Resident #3's care needs. Additionally a "TRANSFER/MOBILITY STATUS CRITERIA" assessment tool was completed on 2/13/13. The assessment determined "3B Not able to bear weight on lower extremities, but has upper body strength for head, neck, shoulders and arms." For assessment of "Mobility Status" Resident #3 was assessed, "May or may not be able to assist with movement while in bed. Assistance Required Needs two or more persons for assistance in bed mobility or use of device." Documentation was evident that on 2/18/13, Resident #3 was being bathed by CNA A. CNA A assisted Resident #3 to turn on her side and proceeded to wash her back. Upon finishing her back, CNA A left the side of the bed and went to the door way to call for the nurse to do wound care. While CNA A was at the door and returning to the bedside, Resident #3 rolled off her bed and to the floor. Resident #3 was assessed by the nurse and after being returned to her bed, xrays were obtained on Resident #3's leg with the following findings: "ANKLE Possible fracture along the medial malleolus of indeterminate age. KNEE Modestly displaced [MEDICAL CONDITION] femur." The medial malleolus is a bony prominence at the inner lower end of the tibia (larger, stronger bone below the knee) at the ankle. The distal femur is the lower end of the long thigh bone of the leg. When interviewed by phone, 3/6/12 at 4:52 p.m., CNA A stated she had only cared for Resident #3 twice. On 2/18/13, she stated she was assigned to care for Resident #3. CNA A stated after Resident #3 washed her top half, CNA A helped her to turn in bed to her side, after washing Resident #3's back and bottom half. The CNA A stated she left the bedside and went to the door way to call for the nurse. CNA A stated the nurse was to perform Resident #3's wound care. CNA A stated the nurse was the second person required to help with Resident #3's care. CNA A stated the nurse was in the hall way passing medications and had told CNA A to call her when her bath had been completed. After calling for the nurse, CNA A said she turned around at the doorway and Resident #3 was rolling out of the side of the bed onto the floor. CNA A stated the side rails were up on the top of the bed and Resident #3 was holding onto them as she fell . CNA A stated while Resident #3 could help a lot with her upper body, Resident #3 needed total assistance with washing, positioning and moving her lower body. CNA A said Resident #3 was a large lady. CNA A stated the first time she cared for Resident #3, the nurse informed her of what type of care the Resident required. CNA A also stated Resident #3 was alert and could make her needs known. When interviewed, 3/7/13, at 6:10 p.m. LPN C, an MDS coordinator, stated she had completed the MDS for Resident #3. LPN C stated the MDS was completed after her transfer to the hospital due to the time frame involved. LPN C stated the MDS was coded based on the information available, and while two person extensive assistance had been coded, some days Resident #3 only needed one person assistance. The ADON (assistant director of nursing) stated 3/7/13 at 9:24 a.m. that care planning was a process all staff was involved in. The ADON said, had Resident #3 been at the facility longer, her "Kardex" would have been updated to reflect her needs. LPN C stated Resident #3's care plan meeting was conducted after her fall and before she was transported to the hospital. The administrator, DON (director of nursing), and ADON were advised of the failure of accurate assessment and development of appropriate care planning by the staff to provide necessary and safe support for Resident #3 resulting in a fall from her bed with two fractures to right leg, 3/7/13 at 11:30 a.m. COMPLAINT DEFICIENCY 2.
