F812F · No harm, potential for more than minimal, widespread

Based on observation, staff interview, and record review, the facility did not sanitize dishware in accordance with professional standards for food service safety. This practice had the potential to affect all 41 residents residing in the facility. The facility did not monitor utensil surface temperatures with an irreversible registered temperature indicator for four unit dishwashers used to wash and sanitize residents' dishes. Findings include: During an initial kitchen tour on 6/2/25 at 9:30 AM, Director of Dining (DOD)-I confirmed the facility follows the Wisconsin Food Code and the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) Food Code as their standards of practice. The Wisconsin Food Code defines a highly susceptible population as: persons who are more likely than other people in the general population to experience foodborne disease because they are: (1) Immunocompromised; preschool age children, or older adults; and (2) Obtaining food at a facility that provides services such as custodial care .hospital or nursing home. The Wisconsin Food Code Code indicates: ~ At 4-302.13 Temperature Measuring Devices, Manual and Mechanical Warewashing: .(B) In hot water mechanical warewashing operations, an irreversible registering temperature indicator shall be provided and readily accessible for measuring the utensil surface temperature. ~ At 4-501.110 Mechanical Warewashing Equipment, Wash Solution Temperature: (A) The temperature of the wash solution in spray type warewashers that use hot water to sanitize may not be less than: .(2) For a stationary rack, dual temperature machine, 150 degrees Fahrenheit (F); (3) For a single tank, conveyor, dual temperature machine, 160 degrees F. ~ At 4-501.112 Mechanical Warewashing Equipment, Hot Water Sanitization Temperatures: (A) . in a mechanical operation, the temperature of the fresh hot water sanitizing rinse as it enters the manifold may not be more than 194 degrees F, or less than: .(2) For all other machines, 180 degrees F. ~ At 4-7 Sanitization of Equipment and Utensils: F-703.11 Hot Water and Chemical: After being cleaned, equipment surfaces and utensils shall be sanitized in: .(B) Hot water mechanical operations by being cycled through equipment that is set up as specified under 4-501.15, 4-501.112, and 4-501.113 and achieving a utensil surface temperature of 160 degrees F as measured by an irreversible registering temperature indicator. The FDA Food Code documents at 4-703.11: If either the temperature or pressure of the final rinse spray is higher than the specified upper limit, spray droplets may disperse and begin to vaporize resulting in less heat delivery to utensil surfaces. Temperatures below the specified limit will not convey the needed heat to surfaces. Pressures below the specified limit will result in incomplete coverage of the heat-conveying sanitizing rinse across utensil surfaces. During the initial kitchen tour with DOD-I on 6/2/25, DOD-I indicated the facility uses hot water (versus chemical) for sanitization of dishes. Surveyor reviewed wash and sanitization temperature logs for the kitchen dishwasher for May and June of 2025. Temperatures for the wash and sanitization cycles were documented three times per day (each meal). In addition, the temperature log contained a surface temperature monitor strip tab next to each date of the month that measured the surface temperature of dishes washed in the kitchen dishwasher. DOD-I indicated each of the four resident care units also had a dishwasher where plates, cups, glasses, and utensils used for residents' meals were washed and sanitized via hot water. DOD-I indicated dishes for residents who ate in their rooms were washed in the kitchen dishwasher, however, most residents ate in the unit dining rooms. DOD-I indicated the kitchen dishwasher was primarily used for cooking and baking dishes and utensils. On 6/2/25 and 6/3/25, Surveyor observed dishwashing on three of the four units and reviewed the temperatures logs for washing and sanitizing dishes on all four units. The unit dishwasher logs did not contain surface temperature strips and Surveyor did not observe staff use surface temperature strips. On 6/3/25 at 11:55 AM, Surveyor interviewed DOD-I who confirmed surface temperatures were not checked in the unit dishwashers. DOD-I again confirmed dishes washed on the units were used for residents' meals in the unit dining rooms. On 6/3/25 at 1:15 PM, Surveyor interviewed Nursing Home Administrator (NHA)-A who indicated the facility did not have a specific dishwasher policy. DOD-I and NHA-A indicated surface temperatures strips will be used on the four resident care units moving forward.

F880D · No harm, potential for more than minimal, isolated

Based on observation, staff interview, and record review, the facility did not ensure staff followed enhanced barrier precautions (EBP) for 2 residents (R) (R5 and R149) of 3 sampled residents observed during the provision of care. In addition, the facility did not ensure staff followed catheter care infection control practices for 1 resident (R32) of 1 sampled resident. R5 was on EBP due to a pressure injury. On 6/3/25, Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA)-E and CNA-F did not wear personal protective equipment (PPE) while transferring R5 from bed to wheelchair. R149 was on EBP due to the presence of a central line (a dialysis access site for hemodialysis). On 6/3/25, CNA-J did not wear PPE during pericare and while transferring R149 from toilet to wheelchair. R32's night time catheter bag was stored in R32's bathroom during the day. On 6/4/25, the catheter bag was observed without a protective cap on the insertion tip to prevent cross-contamination. Findings include: The facility's undated Enhanced Barrier Precautions Policy & Procedure indicates: It is the policy of this facility to initiate enhanced barrier precautions (EBP) when a multidrug-resistant organism (MDRO) is identified and isolation is not appropriate. EBP is an approach to use personal protective equipment (PPE) to reduce the transmission of MDROs between residents .1. EBP is initiated for residents with any of the following: .b. Wounds and or medical devices. 2. Use of gown and gloves during high-contact resident care activities . The facility's posting placed outside rooms of residents on EBP indicates staff are required to wear a gown for high-contact resident cares including transferring, providing hygiene, changing briefs, and assisting with toileting. 1. On 6/2/25, Surveyor reviewed R5's medical record. R5 was admitted to the facility on [DATE] and had diagnoses including unspecified dementia and cerebral infarction (also known as stroke). R5's Minimum Data Set (MDS) assessment, dated 5/14/25, indicated R5 was rarely/never understood. R5 had a Power of Attorney for Healthcare (POAHC) who was responsible for R5's healthcare decisions. R5's medical record indicated R5 was dependent on staff for personal hygiene and required a full mechanical lift for transfers. On 6/2/25 at 10:48 AM, Surveyor observed a sign posted near R5's room that indicated R5 was on EBP. The sign indicated staff were to wear a gown and gloves for high-contact activities, including transfers. On 6/3/25 at 10:43 AM, Surveyor observed CNA-E and CNA-F provide pericare and transfer R5 to a wheelchair via mechanical lift. During the provision of incontinence care, CNA-E and CNA-F (who wore gowns and gloves) changed gloves and completed hand hygiene appropriately. Following pericare, Surveyor observed CNA-E and CNA-F remove gowns and gloves and complete hand hygiene. Without donning new gowns and gloves, CNA-E and CNA-F repositioned and placed a lift sheet under R5. During the process, Surveyor noted CNA-E's uniform top was in contact with R5's bed linens. Surveyor then observed CNA-E and CNA-F transfer R5 from bed to wheelchair via mechanical lift. CNA-F then handed CNA-E R5's water pitcher. CNA-E assisted R5 with taking sips of water by holding the pitcher with a straw while CNA-F adjusted R5's bed linens. CNA-E then combed R5's hair. CNA-E and CNA-F then complete hand hygiene. On 6/3/25 at 10:45 AM, Surveyor interviewed CNA-H in the hallway who indicated staff must wear a gown and gloves during showers and incontinence care for residents on EBP. CNA-H indicated staff do not need to wear a gown or gloves during transfers. On 6/3/25 at 10:59 AM, Surveyor interviewed CNA-F and reviewed with CNA-F the EBP sign outside R5's door. CNA-F indicated CNA-F thought a gown and gloves were not needed for transfers. CNA-F verified the EBP sign indicated a gown and gloves should be worn while transferring R5. On 6/3/25 at 12:04 PM, Surveyor interviewed Infection Preventionist (IP)-D who indicated staff should wear a gown and gloves during high-contact care activities because there is a possibility of contact with a resident's skin or a staff's uniform during care, toileting, emptying urinary catheters, and transferring residents. On 6/4/25 at 8:57 AM, Surveyor interviewed IP-D and Nurse Manager (NM)-C. Following a discussion of the above observation, NM-C indicated CNA-E and CNA-F should not have removed gowns and gloves to transfer R5 from bed to wheelchair. NM-C verified transfers are part of direct contact activities listed on the EBP sign outside R5's door. 45943 2. On 6/3/25, Surveyor reviewed R149's medical record. R149 was admitted to the facility on [DATE] and had diagnoses including dementia, congestive heart failure (CHF), end stage renal disease (ESRD), anxiety, and rheumatoid arthritis. R149's MDS assessment, dated 5/20/25, had a BIMS score of 15 out of 15 which indicated R149 had intact cognition. The MDS also indicated R149 required substantial/max assistance with toileting. R149 made R149's own health care decisions. A care plan. dated 6/2/25, indicated R149 had a self care deficit related to ESRD and was at risk for MDROs with a central line. The care plan contained an intervention for EBP (dated 6/2/25). On 6/3/25 at 1:38 PM, Surveyor observed CNA-J complete pericare for R149 while R149 was on the toilet. CNA-J wore gloves but did not wear a gown. CNA-J completed hand hygiene and donned clean gloves but did not don a gown prior to transferring R149 to a wheelchair. Surveyor observed an EBP sign and a PPE cart outside R149's door. On 6/3/25 at 1:41 PM, Surveyor interviewed CNA-J who verified CNA-J wore gloves but forgot to wear a gown during high-contact resident cares for R149. On 6/4/25 at 12:29 PM, Surveyor interviewed NM-C who verified CNA-J should have worn a gown while providing pericare and transferring R149 who had a dialysis access device. 49563 3. On 6/4/25, Surveyor reviewed R32's medical record. R32 was admitted to the facility on [DATE] and had diagnoses including dementia, hematuria, retention of urine, and chronic kidney disease (CKD) stage 3. R32's MDS assessment, dated 4/22/25, had a BIMS score of 9 out of 15 which indicated R32 had moderate cognitive impairment. R32 had an activated POAHC for healthcare decisions. A care plan, initiated 11/15/24, indicated R32 had an indwelling catheter with a risk of infection related to obstructive uropathy. The care plan contained interventions, dated 11/15/24, for a leg bag change using aseptic technique, store the drainage bag and leg bag with cap on tubing end to prevent cross contamination, and place 30 cubic centimeters (ccs) of vinegar/water (1:4 ratio) in the leg bag when not in use. On 6/4/25 at 9:37 AM, Surveyor observed R32's night time catheter bag in R32's bathroom closet. The bag was stored in a basin without a protective cover on the insertion tip of the bag. On 6/4/25 at 9:37 AM, Surveyor interviewed CNA-G who indicated the insertion tip of the catheter bag should be covered with a cap but the cap must have been lost. On 6/4/25 at 11:54 AM, Surveyor interviewed NM-C who verified staff reported the missing protective cap to NM-C that morning. NM-C indicated a protective cover should be on the catheter insertion tip to prevent cross- contamination.

F689G · Actual harm, isolated

Based on observation, interview and record review the facility did not ensure that 2 of 6 residents (R35, R37) at risk for falls and 1 of 1 (R3) resident at risk for elopement received adequate supervision and assistance devices to prevent falls. R35 was at risk for falls. R35 had 2 falls that resulted in a fractured rib and fractured finger when his care plan interventions were not implemented. This caused actual harm to R35. R37 was transferred using the Sara Steady Lift. A gait belt was not used per the care plan. R3's elopement risk was not re-assessed after a (MONTH) (YEAR) psych consult determined that R3 had a significant lack of safety awareness and his POA-HC (Power of Attorney for Health Care) was activated in (MONTH) (YEAR). R3 eloped from the facility on 8/17/18. Findings include: 1.) R35 is [AGE] years old and has a [DIAGNOSES REDACTED]. R35 had a Fall Care Plan dated 5/9/13 with the following interventions: bed in low locked position; not to be left in his wheel chair when in his room - transfer to bed or recliner when in room. R35 also had a Resident Interdisciplinary Care Plan that was used by the CNAs. It was dated 6/1/17 and noted that R35 was to have a gripper mat in his wheelchair and recliner. R35 had 2 falls in which his Fall Care Plan interventions were not implemented and 1 fall in which the facility did not thoroughly assess R35's risk for falls. Fall 8/22/17 On 8/22/17 at 7:25 am, R35 fell out of his wheelchair landing on his left side. R35 sustained no injury. According to the facility's 8/22/17 fall investigation summary it was determined that the gripper material was not present in R35's wheelchair when he fell . R35 had been known to throw the gripper material away. The gripper material was replaced and staff were reminded to check for the gripper material in the wheelchair. According to the 6/1/17 Resident Interdisciplinary Care Plan, the gripper material should have been in R35's wheelchair when he fell on [DATE]. Fall 9/28/17 On 9/28/17 at 5 PM R35 was found on the floor, lying on his left side. The facility's 9/28/17 fall investigation summary contained a statement from a CNA. The CNA said that normally R25 would have been in his recliner for the meal; but his recliner had been cleaned and was still wet and so R35 was in his wheelchair in his room. An X-ray was completed. R35 sustained a fracture of his 8th or 9th rib with no other complications. According to his 5/9/13 care plan, R35 was not to be left in his wheel chair when in his room. He was to be transferred to his bed or recliner when in his room. Fall 1/27/18 On 1/27/18 at 9:50 am R35 had wheeled himself back to his room after breakfast. He was attempting to reach for something in his closet and fell on his left side. Upon assessment, R35's left middle finger appeared broken. R35 was sent to the hospital emergency room where it was confirmed that he had sustained a fracture to his left finger. The facility's 1/27/18 fall investigation summary noted that R35 had snacks in his closet and he may have been attempting to get them. It was determined that his snacks would be placed in a closet in the hallway so that staff could assist him. The facility did implement this fall intervention. The investigation also noted that R35 would attempt to transfer himself. R35 had self-locking wheelchair brakes. It was determined that maintenance should check R35's wheelchair to ensure that the brakes were functioning correctly. On 09/10/18 at 12:05 PM, Director of Nursing - B (DON - B) was interviewed. DON - B had a copy of the work order indicating that on 1/29/18 maintenance staff had checked R35's wheelchair. However, the work order did not indicate whether of not there was a problem with R35's self-locking brakes. The DON said that the maintenance staff did not document narrative information on the work order. When asked, DON - B did not know if R35's self-locking brakes had required repair on 1/29/18. Additionally, the fall investigation summary did not address the fact that R35 was in his room in his wheelchair. It noted that he had wheeled himself to his room after breakfast. His 5/9/13 care plan directed that he be in his recliner or bed when in his room. It was not clear if staff were responsible for monitoring his whereabouts at this time and if staff should have transferred him to his bed or wheelchair. Current Observations on 9/10/18 At 8:31 am R35 was asleep in bed. His bed was not in the low position as noted on his 5/9/13 care plan. At 10:28 am R35 was seated in his recliner in his room. There was no gripper material in his recliner in accordance with his 6/1/17 care plan. CNA - T was in the room at the time and was interviewed. CNA - T confirmed that R35 did not have the gripper material in his recliner. CNA - T said that she had not transferred R35 to his recliner, but that she was in his room because R35 had turned his call light on. At 11:44 am R35 was seated in his recliner in his room. He was now seated on a cloth pad in the recliner. The surveyor was unable to see if R35 had gripper material in his recliner. Hospice CNA - U was in the room at the time. CNA - U was asked to check to see if R35 had gripper material on the seat of his recliner. CNA - U checked beneath the cloth pad and said that R35 did not have the gripper material in his recliner. At 11:57 am Hospice CNA - U showed the surveyor some black gripper material that she said she had found on the floor beneath R35's recliner. After this, CNA - U showed RN - K the black gripper material that she had found. At 12:27 PM, the surveyor observed R35 seated in his recliner in his room. Because he was seated on a cloth pad, the surveyor could not determine if the gripper material was in the recliner beneath the cloth pad. RN - K was interviewed and said that staff had placed the gripper material in R35's recliner. RN - K said that R35 will often pull the gripper material out of his recliner. On 09/11/18 at 1:45 PM, Administrator - A, DON - B, and RN Consultant - C requested to meet with the surveyor. These staff indicated that the facility had identified a problem with the incidence of falls in the facility and had initiated a Performance Improvement Plan in (MONTH) (YEAR) with updates in (MONTH) (YEAR), (MONTH) (YEAR) and (MONTH) (YEAR). The facility was informed that although they had identified the problem and intimated an improvement plan; the survey team had current observations of non-compliance (see above on 9/10/18 and Example #2). DON - B provided the following information related to R35's fall on 9/28/17. When R35 could not be seated in his recliner, staff had attempted to keep R35 safe by having him sit in the doorway of his room so that staff in the hallway could monitor him. 2.)

The social service note dated 5/21/18 documents SW (social worker) met with R3 to review his outdoor Risk vs Benefit agreement. SW reviewed the concerns and risks of him going outside independently and discussed recommendations to decrease these risk if he decides to go outside. Resident signed agreement; please see in chart. SW also spoke with R3 about not pushing on the gate in Freedom Park and that if it were to come open he could place others at risk; he stated he wouldn't push on it anymore. R3's outdoor risk and benefit agreement dated 5/21/18 & signed by R3 documents I understand that by going outside, onto the walking path independently, I am placing myself at risk of the following: 1. Veering off the path and tipping my wheelchair or falling out of my wheelchair. 2. Losing control of my wheelchair placing me at risk of tipping over, bumping into things, hitting a car or wheeling into the pond/river. 3. Losing the strength to get myself back to the HCC (health care center). 4. Getting heat exhaustion or sunburn. 5. Losing the ability to call for assistance. 6. Getting hit by a car if I choose to wheel further than the guest house parking space towards the road. I understand that I can take the follow actions to keep staff informed of my whereabouts and prevent injury while outside independently: 1. Place my outside pass card on the concierge desk. (With Nurse at nurses station). 2. Remain on the path at all times. 3. Remain seated in my wheelchair at all times. 4. Pedal forward at all times.

DON-B informed Surveyor R3 should have come in and gone out front door. DON-B indicated they don't want R3 to use the gate as its for emergency purposes. DON-B informed Surveyor the staff from the CBRF responded to the alarm, saw R3 and knew R3 was allowed to be outside. Surveyor then asked about the incident report dated 5/28/18 and asked if R3 was allowed to be outside unsupervised why did staff bring him back in. DON-B informed Surveyor the nurse wasn't following the care plan. Surveyor asked about the incident when R3 was found on the gravel along Highway 18. DON-B informed Surveyor they considered this incident an elopement because R3 left their campus. R3 had crossed the bridge to the assisted living and left their campus. Surveyor inquired why R3 has a wanderguard on his wheelchair. DON-B informed Surveyor they were concerned about the temperatures when it got so hot this summer.

Based on observation, interview, and record review the facility failed to ensure that Residents did not develop avoidable pressure injuries, or promote the prevention of pressure injury development for 4 (R3, R4, R8, R9) of 13 Residents reviewed who were at risk for the development of pressure injuries. R3 had no pressure injuries. On 8/14/16, R3 had a fall that resulted in a fracture to her left ankle. This resulted in the resident having a change of condition, requiring increased assistance for mobility, and documented increased risk for the development of pressure injuries. Subsequently, R3 developed an avoidable Stage 4 pressure injury to her right heel following the facility's failure to: *Update interventions in the plan of care to prevent the development of pressure injuries on 8/17/16, when R3 was documented to be at increased risk for the development of pressure injuries. *Off-load R3's heels of pressure despite R3 requiring extensive assistance of 2+ staff for bed mobility, and [DIAGNOSES REDACTED]. *Assess, measure, and monitor the wound weekly. *Ensure the heel was consistently offloaded. *Conduct daily foot checks on a diabetic resident. The pressure injury to R3's right heel deteriorated to the point that R3 required IV antibiotics, a bone debridement, and a skin graft. R3 was also observed during a treatment to have her wound cleansed with a cleansing agent that was not designated for use by a single resident. R3 was observed to have her wound cleansed with normal saline that was noted to have another resident's name on it. The facility's failure to provide necessary treatment and care to prevent R3's pressure injury and prevent it from worsening created a finding of Immediate Jeopardy for R3 beginning on 8/17/16. Administrator-D and RN Consultant-C were informed of the Immediate Jeopardy and substandard quality of care on 7/17/17 at 11:46 a.m. The Immediate Jeopardy was removed on 7/20/17; however, the deficient practice continues at a scope and severity level of D (potential for more than minimal harm/isolated) for R4, R8, and R9 as evidenced below. *R4 was observed with her heels not being offloaded per her plan of care *R8 was observed with her heels not being offloaded per her plan of care, and subsequently acquired a stage 1 pressure injury *R9's treatment to her pressure injury was observed not being done in accordance with physician's orders [REDACTED].>Findings include: 1. R3 has [DIAGNOSES REDACTED]. On 8/14/16, R3 was lowered to the floor in the bathroom. The facility's investigation of the fall documents, Resident had no pain at the time of incident or after, during checks on 8/15/16 it was noted her swelling and change in transfer status prompting an X-ray to be ordered. X-ray was completed in the early morning on 8/16/16 showing that she had a left ankle fx (fracture). R3's Minimum Data Set Assessment (MDS) with an assessment reference date of 8/22/16 documents R3 required increased assistance for bed mobility now requiring extensive physical assistance of 2 plus persons; this compared to her previous assessment dated [DATE] when she only required the assistance of one person. R3 is documented to also require increased assistance in transfers requiring total dependence of two plus persons physical assistance; this compared to her previous 5/23/16 assessment documenting extensive assistance of one person's physical assistance. R3 was also documented to have been ambulatory on her previous 5/23/16 assessment, and on the 8/22/16 ambulation is documented as not occurring. R3's Pressure Injury Care Area Analysis documented as completed 8/26/16 documents, Resident is at facility for LTC (long term care). Resident had a change of condition with a fall and left ankle fx (fracture) dx (diagnosis) per OMH (hospital) eval/tx (evaluation/treatment). Has a cast on left foot, skin and CMS (circulation, moisture, sensation) assessed every shift and PRN (as needed) to left foot. Resident required a blood transfusion when out to OMH. Resident has a dx of Breast CA (cancer) hx (history). Resident requires assist of 2 with a FBL (full body lift) for transfers. Is non-ambulatory. Requires EA (extensive assistance) from staff for completions of ADL's (activities of daily living) Resident is incontinent of B&B (bowel and bladder). Resident has no pressure skin breakdown. Skin is assessed weekly and PRN by licensed staff. Causes and Contributing factors are documented as Immobility secondary to left ankle fx. R3's Braden Scale for Predicting Pressure Sore Risk score on 5/19/16 was scored 21. On 8/17/17, R3's risk score was documented to have an increased risk for the development of pressure injuries with a score of 16. Per the assessment If the residents total is 16 or less, consider him/her at risk for pressure ulcer development. R3's Pressure ulcer care plan signed as completed 8/24/16 documents no new interventions despite R3 being less mobile and being identified to be at increased risk for the development of pressure injuries. On 8/26/16, R3 developed a pressure injury. Prior to the development of the pressure injury R3 had no interventions in place to offload the heels of pressure, despite her [DIAGNOSES REDACTED]. On 8/26/16 the care plan documents interventions for EZ boots to the right heel, and to elevate feet off bed. On 7/12/17 at 1:57 p.m., the surveyor interviewed RN (registered nurse) Manager-U. RN Manager-U confirmed prior to 8/26/16 there were no interventions in place to offload R3's heels of pressure. RN Manager-U confirmed it would be on the care plan if done. According to the National Pressure Ulcer Advisory Panel, European Pressure Ulcer Advisory Panel and Pan Pacific Pressure Injury Alliance's Prevention and treatment of [REDACTED].), Cambridge Media: Perth Australia; 2014 section REPOSITIONING TO PREVENT AND TREAT HEEL PRESSURE ULCERS states, The reduction of pressure and shear at the heel is an important point of interest in clinical practice. The posterior prominence of the heel sustains intense pressure, even when a pressure redistribution surface is used. It continues to state under the section Repositioning for Preventing Heel Pressure Ulcers 1. Ensure that the heels are free of the surface of the bed. On 7/12/17 at 1:57 p.m. the surveyor interviewed RN Manager-U. The surveyor asked if the facility did diabetic foot checks. RN Manager-U stated the facility does daily heel checks for all residents, not just diabetics which should be documented in the TAR (Treatment Administration Record). On 7/12/17, the surveyor reviewed R3's medical record and was unable to find documentation of heel checks being completed. On 7/13/17 at 11:19 am, the surveyor interviewed RN Manager-U and informed her that surveyor had been unable to find documentation that daily heel checks had been completed for R3. RN Manager-U confirmed there was no documentation that daily heel checks had been completed for R3. The surveyor asked RN Manager-U what is the facility's process for diabetic foot checks. RN Manager-U informed the surveyor all residents on admission should have an order for [REDACTED].>On 8/26/16, R3 is documented to have a 2.5cm x 2cm intact pressure ulcer purple in color to her right heel. The wound is incorrectly staged as a stage 2.

On 7/13/17 at 10:15 a.m., the surveyor interviewed DPM (Doctor of Podiatric Medicine)-V from the wound clinic. The surveyor shared the notes written related to R3 not always wearing prevalon boots and asked how DPM-V gained that information. The surveyor asked if R3 had gone to the wound clinic without prevalon boots on. DPM-V stated, yes, and that he could tell that pressure had been on the wound based off its presentation. DPM-V informed the surveyor that the wound had indications of pressure such as callouses and increased size. DPM-V stated that he had also been provided information from R3's family that she had not always had the boots on when they went to visit her. On 4/24/17, R3 underwent a split thickness skin graft for a pre-op [DIAGNOSES REDACTED]. Wound clinic notes on 5/10/17 document the wound to measure 1.5 x 2 x 0.1cm. An antibiotic was started due to increasing [DIAGNOSES REDACTED] (redness) and low grade temperature. Wound clinic notes on 5/15/17 document the wound to measure 3 x 3 x 0.1. Wound clinic notes on 5/24/17 document the wound to measure 3.5 x 3.5 x 0.1cm. R3 was not seen again by the wound clinic until 6/7/17. The wound is documented to measure 3.4 x 3 x 0.1cm. The wound was sharply debrided. Notes document will follow in two weeks. The facility had no documented assessments of the wound from 5/24/17-6/7/17 (2 weeks). R3 was seen two weeks later by the wound clinic on 6/21/17. The wound is documented to measure 3.4 x 3 x 0.1cm. The ulcer is documented to probe to subcutaneous right heel. The facility had no documented assessments of the wound from 6/7/17-6/21/17 (2 weeks). R3 was seen two weeks later by the wound clinic on 7/5/17. The wound is documented to measure 3.4 x 3.2 x 0.1cm. The ulcer is documented to probe to subcutaneous right heel. The documented plan includes Consider debridement of bone if healing is still stagnant. The facility had no documented assessments of the wound from 6/21/17-7/5/17 (2 weeks). The facility's Interdisciplinary Wound Care Team Policy and Procedure signed by the Medical Director on 9/27/16 states, The Wound Care Team will make weekly rounds on residents, who include but are not limited to, those who have pressure ulcers or may be at high risk, wounds that may be followed by a Wound Clinic, or an altered skin condition that may require weekly monitoring/ treatment/ evaluation. According to the National Pressure Ulcer Advisory Panel, European Pressure Ulcer Advisory Panel and Pan Pacific Pressure Injury Alliance's Prevention and treatment of [REDACTED].), Cambridge Media: Perth Australia; 2014 section Pressure Ulcer Assessment 1. Assess the pressure ulcer initially and re-assess it at least weekly .1.1 Document the results of all wound assessments .A two-week period is recommended for evaluating the progress toward healing. However, weekly assessments provide an opportunity for the health professional to assess the ulcer more regularly, detect complications as early as possible, and adjust the treatment plan accordingly. On 7/11/17 at 12:56 p.m., the surveyor interviewed RN (registered nurse) Manager-U, who oversees the facility's wounds. The surveyor asked RN Manager-U if she measures R3's wounds. RN Manager-U stated R3 is seen by the wound clinic weekly, and confirmed that she does not measure R3's wounds. On 7/11/17 at 3:03 p.m., the surveyor interviewed NP (nurse practitioner)-W regarding R3's wound. NP-W informed the surveyor it is her knowledge that R3's wounds are assessed weekly at the wound clinic. The surveyor informed NP-W recently R3 had been only going to the wound clinic every other week. On 7/11/17 at 3:20 p.m., the surveyor interviewed DON (Director of Nursing)-B. The surveyor asked how does staff know if R3's wound is deteriorating without documented assessments. DON-B stated she would look into it, and that she could not answer at this time without looking into it. No additional information was provided to the surveyor. On 7/12/17 at 8:20 a.m., the surveyor observed LPN (licensed practical nurse)-X perform a treatment on R3's wound. The surveyor observed LPN-X remove the old dressing, and cleanse the wound with a saline wash spray. The surveyor observed a different resident's last name on the saline spray bottle. The surveyor observed LPN-X complete the treatment. At 8:34 a.m., the surveyor interviewed LPN-X. The surveyor asked if residents should have their own dedicated wound supplies. LPN-X stated yes. The surveyor pointed out the other resident's last name on the bottle. LPN-X stated she did not see that. The surveyor observed R3's last name also on the same saline spray bottle. On 7/12/17 at 3:15 p.m. during the daily exit meeting with the facility the surveyor asked DON-B if residents should have their own dedicated wound treatment supplies. DON-B stated yes. The surveyor shared the above observation of R3's wound treatment with DON-B. No additional information was provided. The facility's failure to provide necessary treatment and care to prevent R3 from developing an avoidable pressure injury and appropriate care to the pressure injury created a finding of Immediate Jeopardy for R3 beginning on 8/17/16. The Immediate Jeopardy was removed on 7/20/17 when: *Individualized interventions for the residents identified were reviewed and revised for appropriateness/effectiveness of off-loading. Alternative means for off-loading pressure areas were assessed and individualized per resident. Individual care plans were updated to reflect interventions. *All residents were evaluated through head-to-toe body checks for any current or new skin concerns. The Braden Risk Assessment for Skin will be done for all residents to determine risk and need for preventative measures. Changes, if indicated, will be made on the care plans. *In-Service education provided to professional Nursing staff and CNA staff on pressure sore preventions. *Weekly wound rounds are completed by RN. Wound Care RN will assure that appropriate interventions are in place. Weekly Interdisciplinary Skin Meeting will then be conducted to review all current pressure sores and interventions and effectiveness of treatment and off-loading. *At risk residents will be reviewed at the Interdisciplinary Skin Meeting quarterly or with change in condition in coordination with completion of MDS. This meeting will include a review of care plan appropriateness and effectiveness of interventions and off-loading, Braden score and risk factors (ie: Diagnosis, Nutritional status, labs). *Found at risk residents per unit will be audited in the first month of implementation to ensure care plans are current, appropriate and being followed. Three at risk residents per unit will be audited in the second and third month of implementation to ensure the care plans are current, appropriate and being followed. Audits will be completed by Nurse Manager or designee. Audit findings will be reported at QAPI (Quality Assurance Program Improvement) Meetings. Additional audits will be determined by members of QAPI. *Plan of correction will be overseen by Administrator and Director of Nursing. The deficient practices continues at a scope/severity of D (potential for more than minimal harm/isolated) based upon the following examples. 2. R4 had [DIAGNOSES REDACTED]. R4's most recent MDS (Minimum Data Set assessment) with an assessment reference date of 5/11/17 documents that R4 requires extensive assistance of 2 plus staff's physical assistance for bed mobility and is at risk for the development of pressure injuries. R4's Resident Interdisciplinary Care Plan under skin management instructs to elevate heels off bed with pillow. On 7/11/17 at 9:01 a.m., the surveyor observed R4 in bed on her back with her heels on the mattress. The surveyor observed no pillow in the bed to be used to elevate R4's heels. On 7/11/17 at 9:20 a.m. and 9:40 a.m. the surveyor observed R4 in bed on her back with her heels not elevated off the bed. The surveyor reviewed R4's medical record and was unable to find documentation that R4 declined to have her heels offloaded. On 7/17/17 at 11:40 a.m. during a meeting with Administrator-D and RN Consultant-C the surveyor shared the above observation with the facility. No additional information was provided. 3. Surveyor reviewed R8's medical record on 7/10/17 to 7/13/17. The pressure ulcer care plan not dated includes an intervention dated 11/7/13 of Position body with pillows/support devices, protect bony prominences. The quarterly MDS (Minimum Data Set) with an assessment reference date of 4/17/17 and signed as complete on 4/20/17 documents a BIMS (brief interview mental status) score of 14 which indicates cognitively intact. R8 is dependent upon staff with two plus person physical assist for transfers, does not ambulate, requires extensive assistance with two plus person physical assist for bed mobility, is always incontinent of bowel and frequent incontinent of bladder. R8 is at risk for pressure injuries and is coded as not having any pressure injuries. The Resident interdisciplinary care plan dated 4/19/17 located inside R8's closet under the section skin management is checked for turn q2 (every two) hours in bed, Elevate heels off bed w/(with) pillows, lotion, side to side only in bed, Treatment by nurse and nap daily with a handwritten notation of or per request. The Braden assessment dated [DATE] has a score of 14. A score of 16 or less is considered high risk for pressure injury development. On 7/10/17 at 2:20 p.m., Surveyor observed CNA (Certified Nursing Assistant)-Q and CNA-R transfer R8 from the Broda chair into bed using a Hoyer lift. CNA-Q & CNA-R unhooked the sling from the lift, CNA-R removed R8's black shoes, and moved the bed away from the wall. CNA-Q & CNA-R removed the sling from under R8.

F441F · No harm, potential for more than minimal, widespread

Based on observation, interview, and record review the Facility did not implement effective infection control procedures to prevent the spread of infection during a respiratory outbreak, did not maintain a completed tracking and trending log of infections with required information and did not ensure effective hand hygiene for 1 (R9) of 13 sampled residents. * The facility has 4 resident units. During the survey, the Rivers and Woods units were closed as a result of residents experiencing an illness due to Rhino virus. 8 of 24 residents on the Rivers unit were ill and 9 of 24 residents on the Woods unit were ill. During the outbreak, the Meadows unit had 3 residents who were ill, however, the unit was not closed. During the survey, staff from various departments were observed entering the Rivers unit without wearing a mask as required. Staff on the Rivers unit were observed entering R21, R22, & R23 without a mask. These residents were identified as being ill with the Rhino virus. R21 was observed multiple times in the hallway without a mask coughing. Well Residents were also in the hallway. *Facility staff was observed entering R11's room without wearing without wearing PPE (personal protective equipment) while she was on isolation due to a respiratory infection outbreak on the Woods unit. * Through March 2017 the Facility's infection control preventionist completed a tracking and trending log of the infections with the required information. The infection control preventionist has not completed this log for April 2017, May 2017, June 2017, and July 2017. A report from the computer lists only the onset date, site, and where acquired. This report does not consistently have the organism, does not list type of isolation, and date of the infections were resolved. * RN (Registered Nurse)-G was observed not use proper hand hygiene when performing a wound treatment on R9's right heel. This deficient practice has the potential to affect all 76 Residents. Finding include: 1. On 7/10/17 at 8:00 a.m. upon entrance for the Facility's recertification survey, Surveyor observed a signed taped to the receptionist desk which documented, We are currently experiencing a higher than normal rate of respiratory illness on Woods wing and Rivers wing. Please see nurse before visiting. Wash your hand and wear a mask. Thank you. On 7/10/17 at 9:24 a.m., DON (Director of Nursing)-B informed Surveyor the Rivers unit in which Surveyor is going to tour is on isolation for the Rhino virus and when ever Surveyor goes into the unit the Surveyor should wear a mask. DON-B explained the staff working on the unit do not have to wear a mask unless they go into a Resident's room who is on droplet isolation as they are only assigned to this unit. DON-B informed Surveyor staff from other departments or units that have to come into the unit need to wear a mask. DON-B informed Surveyor the Residents with the respiratory illness are identified with a green sign which is placed above or below their name. DON-B informed Surveyor ill Residents are kept in their room or if they come out they need to wear a mask and these Residents eat in their room. Surveyor observed the doors to this unit are closed and outside the door is a box of mask and a container of hand sanitizer. On 7/10/17 at 11:18 a.m., Surveyor observed CNA (Certified Nursing Assistant)-Z enter R21's room without a mask and ask R21 what she wants for lunch. R21 has a green sign outside the door and is identified as being ill with the respiratory illness. On 7/10/17 at 11:20 a.m., Surveyor observed CNA-Z enter R22's room without a mask and inquire about lunch. R22 has a green sign outside the door and is identified as being ill with the respiratory illness. On 7/10/17 at 12:44 p.m., Surveyor observed R21 sitting in the hallway without a mask on. R21 was coughing stating, I feel terrible. Surveyor noted the staff in the hallway did not offer R21 a mask. On 7/10/17 at 12:58 p.m., Surveyor observed R21 continues to be in the hallway without a mask on. R21 is eating her lunch facing R6. On 7/10/17 at 1:05 p.m., Surveyor observed R21 continues to be sitting in the hallway without a mask coughing. CNA-Q stated to R21 Thank you for covering your mouth. CNA-Q did not cleanse R21's hands nor did she offer R21 a mask. On 7/10/17 at 1:07 p.m., Surveyor observed CNA-Q cleanse her hands and enter R23's room without a mask. R23 has a green sign outside the door and is identified as being ill with the respiratory illness. CNA-Q moved R23 who was sitting in her wheelchair closer to the over bed table with her lunch on and informed R23 would turn tv on maybe then you'll eat. On 7/10/17 at 1:13 p.m., Surveyor observed CNA-Q enter R23's room without a mask.

F334E · No harm, potential for more than minimal, pattern

Based on staff interview and record review the Facility did not offer the Prevnar 13 immunization to 6 (R6, R7, R16, R15, R4, & R9) of 6 residents eligible to receive the Prevnar 13 vaccination, from a total sample of 16 Residents reviewed. The remaining 10 sampled residents either received the Prevnar 13 prior to admission or were not eligible to receive it. In addition, the Facility does not have a policy and procedure for the Prevnar 13. Findings include: On 4/27/16, the State of Wisconsin, Public Health Chief Medical Officer and State Epidemiologist for Communicable Diseases sent a memorandum regarding new guidance on administering vaccines to older adults for Pneumonia (pneumococcal conjugate vaccine/PCV13 and pneumococcal [MEDICATION NAME] vaccine/PPSV23), with recommendations for adults aged [AGE] years and older. This memorandum was sent to all Long Term Care facility directors. This memorandum indicated the new standards of practice indicated by the Federal Centers for Disease Control (CDC). This memorandum includes Recommendation for immunocompetent adults which states in part: Adults aged = [AGE] years who have not previously received pneumococcal vaccine or whose previous vaccination history is unknown should receive a dose of PCV 13 first, followed by a dose of PPSV23 ideally = 1 year later . Adults aged = [AGE] years who have previously received =1 dose PPSV23 also should receive a dose of PCV13 if they have not yet received it. A dose of PCV13 should be given =1 year after receipt of the most recent dose of PPSV23 . For adults who previously received PPSV23 when aged <[AGE] years and for whom an additional dose of PPSV23 is indicated when aged = [AGE] years, this subsequent PPSV23 dose should be given = 1 year after PCV13 and = 5 years after the most recent dose of PPSV23 . PVC13 and PPSV23 should not be co-administered . During 2014, the Federal Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) published the recommendations of the Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP) pertaining to pneumococcal vaccination of immunocompetent adults aged over [AGE] years: a subsequent clarification of the interval between doses was published during 2015. Accordingly, the current ACIP recommendation is that adults aged over [AGE] years now receive the pneumococcal conjugate vaccine (PCV13, Prevnar-13®) followed by the pneumococcal [MEDICATION NAME] vaccine (PPSV23, [MEDICATION NAME]®23) 1 year later. This memorandum indicated the newest recommendations for immunizing older adults. This memorandum indicates that the State of Wisconsin Public Health Department is recommending that providers should take the following four steps to encourage their adult patients to receive all of the recommended vaccines: 1. Screen adult patients for their vaccination status during each visit. 2. Recommend the needed vaccines to their patients during each visit. 3. Administer the needed vaccines, or refer the patient to a provider who is able to vaccinate. 4. Document the vaccination in the patient's medical record and submit this information to the WIR (Wisconsin Immunization Registry). 1. On 7/12/17 at 9:30 a.m., Surveyor met with DON (Director of Nursing)-B, who is the Facility's Infection Control Preventionist, to conduct the infection control task. At 10:37 a.m. Surveyor asked DON-B if she was also responsible for the immunization program. DON-B informed Surveyor she was. Surveyor asked DON-B to explain the immunization program at the Facility. DON-B explained when a Resident is admitted the admitting nurse will check the hospital records for the immunizations. If they can't find information regarding the immunization status the Wisconsin registry will also be checked. DON-B informed Surveyor the MDS (Minimum Data Set) nurses double check this information because they input the immunizations into the assessment. On 7/12/17 at 10:50 a.m., Surveyor informed DON-B Surveyor was provided with a policy & procedure for the influenza vaccine program and the administration of [MEDICATION NAME] vaccine. Surveyor inquired if there is a policy and procedure for the Prevnar 13 vaccine. DON-B replied, I gave you what I have. We follow the pharmacy recommendation when to administer Prevnar 13 versus 23. Surveyor asked if there is a pharmacy policy and procedure. DON-B replied, I can get it. On 7/12/17 at 12:31 p.m., DON-B provided Surveyor with an Omnicare Pharmacy Services memorandum dated September 9, 2015 with the subject line Additional Changes to Pneumococcal Vaccine Recommendation in Older Adults. This memo includes the 7 following questions; Who is a candidate for PCV13 (Pneumococcal vaccine 13)?, Why are both PCV13 and PPSV23 (Pneumococcal [MEDICATION NAME] vaccine) vaccines needed in adults aged > [AGE] years?, Has PCV13 been shown to be effective in adults aged > [AGE] years?, Can PCV13 (Prevnar 13) be co-administered with other vaccines?, Are they are contraindications to PCV13 (Prevnar 13)?, Should the Pneumococcal Vaccine Information Sheet (VIS) be provided to patients with the consent form prior to administration of PCV13?, and Has ACIP recommendations changed for PVC13 in adults aged > [AGE] years? On 7/17/17 at 11:04 a.m., Surveyor asked RN (Registered Nurse) Consultant-C where Surveyor could find DON-B. RN Consultant-C informed Surveyor DON-B had stepped out of the building and asked Surveyor what the Surveyor needed. Surveyor informed RN Consultant-C that DON-B had provided Surveyor with an Omnicare memo regarding Prevnar 13 but not a policy and procedure for Prevnar 13. Surveyor asked RN Consultant-C if there is a Prevnar 13 policy and procedure. RN Consultant-C informed Surveyor she would look for one. On 7/17/17 at 11:21 a.m., RN Consultant-C informed Surveyor she couldn't find anything else. Surveyor asked RN Consultant-C you don't have a Prevnar 13 policy? RN Consultant-C shook her head no. 2. Surveyor reviewed R6's medical record on 7/10/17 to 7/13/17. R6 was admitted to the facility on [DATE], is [AGE] years old, and has an activated power of attorney. The electronic medical record under the immunization section documents R6 received the influenza vaccine on 10/27/16 and the Pneumococcal 23 on 3/30/2005. Surveyor did not note any documentation that Prevnar 13 was offered to R6's legal representative. On 7/12/17 at 10:43 a.m., Surveyor asked DON (Director of Nursing)-B who is the infection control preventionist at the Facility if the Prevnar 13 vaccine was offered to R6's legal representative. DON-B replied, I don't have Prevnar 13. 3. Surveyor reviewed R7's medical record on 7/10/17 to 7/12/17. R7 was admitted to the facility on [DATE], is [AGE] years old and has an activated POA (power of attorney). The electronic medical record under the immunization section documents R7 received the influenza vaccine on 11/1/16.

Surveyor reviewed all R16's nurses notes from 6/8/17 to 7/6/17, the date of discharge, and was unable to locate any information whether Prevnar 13 had been offered to R16. On 7/17/17 at 7:51 a.m., Surveyor met with DON (Director of Nursing)-B to discuss R16's immunization status. Surveyor informed DON-B during R16's record review Surveyor noted R16 had received the Pneumococcal 23 but was unable to locate documentation R16 had received or was offered the Prevnar 13 vaccine. Surveyor inquired if DON-B had the form which the admitting nurse completes. This form has an immunizations/TB ([MEDICAL CONDITION]) status section which includes the questions Have you had a [MEDICATION NAME], Have you ever had the Prevnar 13 vaccine, and Did you get the Influenza vaccine this year with a box for yes or no and the date. DON-B informed Surveyor she didn't know if they have it as she had asked medical records for the entire record. On 7/17/17 at 11:40 a.m. during the daily exit conference Administrator-D and RN (Registered Nurse)- Consultant-C were informed of the above. Surveyor was not provided with any information regarding Prevnar 13 for R16. 5. Surveyor reviewed R15's medical record on 7/17/17. R15 was admitted to the facility on [DATE] and discharged on [DATE]. R15 was [AGE] years old and had an activated power of attorney. The form completed by the admitting nurse which is not titled dated 7/11/16 at 1430 (2:30 p.m.) under the section immunizations/TB ([MEDICAL CONDITION]) status section for the questions Have you had a [MEDICATION NAME] yes is checked. For the question Have you ever had the Prevnar 13 vaccine No is checked. The electronic medical record under the immunization section documents R15 received the Pneumococcal 23 immunization on 6/24/15 and the influenza vaccine on 12/13/16. This immunization section does not include Prevnar 13. Surveyor reviewed R15's nurses notes from 7/1/16 to 6/30/17 and was unable to locate any information if R15 was administered Prevnar 13 prior to admission or Prevnar 13 was offered to R15's POA (power of attorney). On 7/17/17 at 9:44 a.m., Surveyor met with DON (Director of Nursing)-B to discuss R15's immunization status. Surveyor informed DON-B during R15's record review Surveyor noted R15 received the influenza vaccine on 12/13/16 and the Pneumococcal 23 on 6/24/15 but was unable to locate Prevnar 13. DON-B informed Surveyor she did not have the Prevnar 13. DON-B stated, It's a problem I'll have to address. It's a process we need improvement on. 6. R4 was most recently admitted to the facility on [DATE]. R4 is over the age of 65. R4's immunization report documents that R4 received the Pneumococcal (PPSV23) immunization 10/01/10. The surveyor reviewed R4's medical record and was unable to find documentation that R4 had been offered the Prevnar-13 immunization (pneumococcal conjugate vaccine). On 7/11/17 at 3:20 p.m. during the daily exit meeting with Interim Administrator-A and DON-B, the surveyor informed the facility that she had been unable to locate that R4 was offered the Prevnar-13 immunization, and asked for any additional information. No additional information was provided. 7. Surveyor reviewed R9's medical record from 7/10/17 to 7/17/17. R9 was admitted to the facility on [DATE] with a [DIAGNOSES REDACTED]. R9's admission MDS (Minimum Data Set) dated 6/29/17 documents a BIMS (brief interview for mental status) score of 15, indicating that R9 is cognitively intact. R9's discharge record dated 6/22/17 did not document the immunization status for R9's influenza, Pneumococcal and Prevnar 13 immunizations. Surveyor was unable to locate R9's immunization status in both R9's electronic and paper medical records. Surveyor could not locate any documentation in R9's nursing notes or medical record that R9 had been approached or offered any immunization upon admission to the facility. On 7/12/17 at 10:45 a.m., Surveyor informed RN (Registered Nurse) Manager-H of the above findings. Surveyor asked RN Manager-H what R9's immunization status was as Surveyor was unable to locate R9's immunization status in either R9's electronic and paper medical records. RN Manager-H informed Surveyor that R9 refuses to have any immunization and that she (RN Manager-H) approached R9 today (7/12/17) and offered information on the Pneumococcal immunizations.

RN Manager-H informed Surveyor that facility staff should have documented or investigated R9's immunization status to determine if R9 had received the Pneumococcal, influenza and Prevnar 13 immunizations or if they were medically contraindicated or refused. RN Manager-H informed Surveyor that the facility usually obtains the resident's immunization record from the discharge summary and that the facility needed a better system to track and document the immunization status of residents upon admission. On 7/12/17 at 2:56 p.m., during the daily exit conference, Surveyor informed Interim Administrator-A and DON (Director of Nursing)-B of the above findings. No further information was provided as to why the facility did not document or investigate R9's immunization status to determine if R9 had received the Pneumococcal, influenza and Prevnar 13 immunizations or if they were medically contraindicated or refused.

F327E · No harm, potential for more than minimal, pattern

Based on interview and record review, the Facility did not ensure that 6 (R6, R7, R3, R1, R13, & R12) of 6 residents reviewed for hydration fluids were monitored to ensure they were provided with sufficient fluids to meet assessed needs. Findings include: 1. Surveyor reviewed R6's medical record on 7/10/17 to 7/13/17. R6 was admitted to the facility on [DATE] and has a [DIAGNOSES REDACTED]. The nurses note dated 6/25/17 documents Resident alert, confused, and pleasant. Resident is unable to make her needs known. Resident's needs are anticipated. Resident getting around in her wheel chair, propelling herself. Staff attempted to feed resident and resident had only eaten a few bites of supper. Resident fidgets with things around her like her necklaces, news papers, and gripper socks. Resident is incontinent of bladder. The nutrition care assessment dated [DATE] documents under estimated fluid needs 1740cc/day (cubic centimeter per day). Under the section nutritional findings, nutrition diagnosis, monitoring, & intervention documents Resident is alert but very confused. Res. (Resident) does not respond appropriately to most questions. Res. has been making attempts to leave the table while eating in the D.R. (dining room). Res. needs constant redirection @ (at) meals so she is sitting @ a table where staff are available throughout the meals to cue, redirect & assist as needed. Under interventions document Serve diet as ordered & honor preferences. Weekly wts (weights). Record food/Bev (beverage) intake @ all meals. Encourage fluid at & between meals. The admission MDS (minimum data set) with an assessment reference date of 7/1/17 and signed as complete on 7/6/17 documents R6 has short & long term memory problems and is severely impaired for cognitive skills for daily decision making. Under the communication section R6 is coded as having unclear speech, rarely makes self understood and rarely understands others. R6 requires extensive assistance with one person physical assist for eating. The Resident interdisciplinary care plan dated 7/6/17 under the dietary section is checked for set tray up and for diet documents General Encourage Fluids. The nutritional status care plan dated 7/10/17 includes an intervention dated 7/10/17 of Provide at least 1500ml (milliliters) fluid per day. On 7/13/17 at 10:37 a.m. Surveyor asked RN (Registered Nurse) Consultant-C where fluids consumed would be documented for a Resident. RN Consultant-C explained dietary does the food & fluids and there is a binder that the dietitian reviews. RN Consultant-C explained fluids given by the nurse would be documented in the MAR (medication administration record), the CNA's (Certified Nursing Assistants) put fluids consumed in care tracker and there is another form for in between. Surveyor asked RN Consultant-C who monitors on a daily basis and reviews all these different areas where fluids are documented to ensure that a Resident is meeting their recommended fluid intake. RN Consultant-C replied right now it's the dietitian. RN Consultant-C explained for concerns with meal consumption this would be placed on the twenty four hour report but doesn't address the fluids and dietary isn't able to go into the CNA's care tracker. RN Consultant-C indicated dietary would pull all the pieces together and inform nursing. On 7/13/17 at 10:53 a.m. Surveyor asked Dietitian-O who monitors on a daily basis and reviews all the different areas where fluids are documented to ensure that a Resident is meeting their recommended fluid intake. Dietitian-O replied really can't tell you how it's done and explained they don't have a specific tool between dietary services and the CNAs. Dietitian-O informed Surveyor a hydration assessment is completed quarterly and if a Resident is assessed for level 2 hydration they offer more fluids. Surveyor asked Dietitian-O when does she review a Resident's fluid intake. Dietitian-O informed Surveyor upon admission, quarterly, annually and if there is a significant change. On 7/13/17 at 2:40 p.m. during the daily exit conference Interim Administrator-A, DON (Director of Nursing)-B and RN Consultant-C were informed of the above. 2. Surveyor reviewed R7's medical record on 7/10/17 to 7/12/17. R7 has a [DIAGNOSES REDACTED]. The nutritional status care plan dated 3/25/16 includes an intervention also dated 3/25/16 of Provide at least 1500 - 2000 ml (milliliters) fluid per day. The quarterly MDS with an assessment reference date of 6/26/17 and signed as complete on 6/30/17 has a BIMS (brief interview mental status) total score of 2 which indicates severe impairment. Under the communication section R7 is coded as having unclear speech, sometimes makes self understood and sometimes understands others. R7 requires extensive assistance with one person physical assist for eating. The plan of care reviewed evaluation note dated 6/26/17 documents POC (plan of care) reviewed. Goal met. Resident has had a fair appetite at meals. She is not always meeting calorie and protein requirements from food/beverage consumed at meals. Will reinstate 90cc (cubic centimeters) Protein shake if resident has a trend of weight loss or if she has a sig (significant) wt (weight) loss in a short period. Weight has been stable this past quarter. Resident is not meeting minimum fluid requirement. An additional 120cc fluid will be offered q (every) shift to increase opportunities to drink liquids and prevent fluid volume deficit. Hydration assessment did not indicate increased risk for fluid volume deficit. Goal and approaches are appropriate and are extended. The quarterly nutrition assessment note dated 6/26/17 documents Resident consumed ~(approximately) 60% food/beverage/at meals this past week which averages 1320 cal (calorie)/day. Caloric intake was ~200cal/day less than requirement of 1424 cal/day so weight loss is expected if calorie intake continues at current rate. Will reinstate 90 cc (cubic centimeter) Protein shake if resident has a trend of weight loss or if she has a significant weight loss in a short period. Weight hast been stable this past quarter. She consumed ~200 cc fluid/meal this past week which averages 600cc fluid/day. A maximum of 665cc fluid is present in food served at meals each day. Since resident consumed at least 60% of food at meals this past week, at least ~400 cc/day (60% of 665cc) of water was present in the food she consumed. Total fluid intake from water contained in food she eats and from the fluid she drinks at meals was ~1000cc/day. This does not include the water she is offered from hydration cart each AM (morning), PM (evening), and HS (hour sleep). It does not include the additional fluid she is drinking with her meds. Resident is also offered beverages at the activities she attends. Resident is not always meeting minimum fluid requirements. Hydration assessment did not indicate increased risk for fluid volume deficit. An additional 120cc fluid will be offered q (every) shift to increase opportunities to drink liquids and prevent fluid volume deficit. She consumed at least 50gm (grams) protein from the food/milk at her meals. She is meeting minimum protein requirement of 50 gm/day. Skin is intact. Braden scale score indicates resident is at risk of developing a pressure ulcer. Goal of no significant weight loss on risk for alteration in nutrition/hydration POC (plan of care) is still realistic and will continue with current approaches. The Resident interdisciplinary care plan located inside R7's closet dated 6/28/17 under the dietary section is checked for set tray up and extensive assist-also cue. On 7/10/17 at 12:50 p.m. Surveyor observed RA (Restorative Aide)-N feeding R7 lunch in the hallway. Surveyor observed R7's lunch meal consisted of fish, mashed potatoes, dessert, milk and red juice.

On 7/13/17 at 10:53 a.m. Surveyor asked Dietitian-O who monitors on a daily basis and reviews all the different areas where fluids are documented to ensure that a Resident is meeting their recommended fluid intake. Dietitian-O replied really can't tell you how it's done and explained they don't have a specific tool between dietary services and the CNA's. Dietitian-O informed Surveyor a hydration assessment is completed quarterly and if a Resident is assessed for level 2 hydration they offer more fluids. Surveyor asked Dietitian-O when does she review a Resident's fluid intake. Dietitian-O informed Surveyor upon admission, quarterly, annually and if there is a significant change. On 7/13/17 at 2:40 p.m. during the daily exit conference Interim Administrator-A, DON (Director of Nursing)-B and RN Consultant-C were informed of the above. 3. R3 has [DIAGNOSES REDACTED]. R3's care plan for Risk for Altered Nutritional/Hydration Status Related to: low HGB/HCT (hemoglobin/hematocrit), increased nutrient needs to promote healing of Ankle FX (fracture), caloric and protein intake < (less than) requirements, increased nutrient needs to promote healing or pressure ulcer on left heel. Interventions include PROVIDE AT LEAST 1500 ML FLUID PER DAY. Other interventions include to Assess individual resident fluid requirements base on accepted standards of practice and create a plan of care to meet or exceed those needs. From 7/11/17-7/17/17 the surveyor reviewed R3's medical record. The surveyor was unable to find any assessment calculating R3's total daily fluid intake to ensure that she was meeting at least 1500mL of fluid daily. On 7/17/17 at 11:40 a.m. the surveyor asked Administrator-D for R3's fluid intake for July. On 7/17/17 at approximately 12:30p.m. Dietitian-O provided the surveyor with fluid intakes for R3 from multiple sources. The surveyor noted that there was no documented assessment calculating to ensure that R3 meets her assessed fluid intake daily. On 7/17/17 during the exit with Administrator-D and DON-B, the facility was informed of the concern related to R3 having no documented total daily fluid intake to determine if she is meeting her fluid requirements. No additional information was provided. 4. Surveyor reviewed R12's medical record from 7/12/17 to 7/1717. R12 was admitted to the facility on [DATE] with a [DIAGNOSES REDACTED].

R12's Quarterly Nutrition Assessment Note dated 5/1/17 documents, Total fluid intake from Magic Cups and thickened beverages consumed at meals this past week was approximately 1300-1400 cc (cubic centimeters)/day. Surveyor reviewed R12's fluid intake in R12's medical record and was unable to locate R12's total amount of fluid intake for the following dates: 7/5/17 to 7/8/17. On 7/13/17 at 11:22 a.m., Surveyor requested R12's fluid intake monitoring from Dietitian-O. On 7/13/17 at 2:20 p.m., Dietitian-O provided Surveyor with R12's fluid intake from 7/5/17 to 7/8/17. Surveyor asked Dietitian-O how facility staff monitor R12's fluid intake. Dietitian-O informed Surveyor that facility staff record R12's fluid intake in three different locations which were care tracker, a dietary binder and CNA (Certified Nursing Assistant) monitoring on a paper form. Surveyor asked Dietitian-O how she performs an accurate assessment as locating R12's fluid intake was difficult as Surveyor was unable to locate the total amount of fluid intake for R12 from 7/5/17 to 7/8/17. Dietitian-O informed Surveyor that CNAs don't accurately and consistently monitor R12's fluid intake and that she monitors R12's fluid intake approximately every two weeks. Surveyor asked Dietitian-O how facility staff would monitor an acute change in a resident's fluid intake status if it occurred before the two week period Dietitian-O reviews a resident's fluid intake Dietitian-O informed Surveyor that the facility needs a better system to monitor for dehydration and acute changes in a resident's fluid intake status. On 7/13/17 at 2:30 p.m., Surveyor reviewed R12's fluid intake from 7/5/17 to 7/8/17.

On 7/17/17 at 9:17 a.m., Surveyor informed Dietitian-O of the above findings. Surveyor and Dietitian-O confirmed the fluid intake for R12 on the above dates. Surveyor asked Dietitian-O how she accurately monitors R12's fluid intake as Surveyor gathered information from all the sources provided and struggled to obtain a total fluid intake as the CNA monitoring for every meal on the above dates was not complete. Dietitian-O informed Surveyor that she averages R12's fluid intake and attempts to monitor R12 daily when she encounters R12 during meals in the dinning room. Dietitian-O informed Surveyor that she has will attempt to implement a new system to monitor R12's fluid intake as the current system for fluid monitoring is not consistent or accurate. On 7/17/17 at 11:37 a.m., during the daily exit conference, Surveyor informed Administrator-D and DON (Director of Nursing)-B of the above findings. No further information was provided as to why the facility did not accurately monitor R12's fluid and hydration intake. 5. R1 was admitted to the facility on [DATE] and has [DIAGNOSES REDACTED].

Review of R1's Food/Fluid Intake Record revealed each 2 sided page covered a 2 week period. Surveyor noted the day of the week is not dated, therefore it is difficult to determine actual dates. R1's Food/Fluid Intake Record for June 25th - July 11th 2017 documented fluid intake per meal, though it was not consistently documented for each meal and did not have a total listed for each 24 hour period. Review of R1's Medical Record documented no evidence that staff analyzed R1's daily fluid intake, as the facility staff did not consistently total R1's 24 hour fluid intake. Surveyor was unable to locate any documentation to indicate that staff was aware if R1 was meeting fluid goals as documented in the Care Plan. On 7/12/17 at 2:30 pm, Surveyor interviewed Director of Nursing (DON)-B. DON-B stated fluid intake is found in Caretracker, MAR, and intake record binder in the kitchen. Surveyor asked DON-B how the facility monitors if a resident is meeting their daily fluids as indicated on their Care Plan. DON-B reported the Dietitian reviews resident's fluid intake weekly. DON-B stated, Nurses can look at the binder in the kitchen or Caretracker, I guess, to see how residents are drinking. DON-B reported staff can also find fluid documentation in the MAR. Surveyor reviewed the kitchen binder with DON-B. DON-B stated the sheet was confusing, and was unable to confirm specific dates for R1's fluid intake. DON-B reported there is no real system in place to monitor if residents are meeting their Daily fluids except for the Dietitian review, which DON-B reported is weekly. 6.

F226K · Immediate jeopardy, pattern

Based on record review and staff interview, the facility did not implement its written policy to prevent verbal and physical abuse for residents living on the Woods Unit. The Woods Unit is one of three living units at the facility. Resident #1, who lives on the Woods Unit, was verbally and mentally abused by LPN - C on 4-27-13. The abuse was witnessed by CNA - D and CNA - E who did not immediately report the allegation, in accordance with facility policy. Because the allegation was not immediately reported, the facility was unable to prevent further potential abuse, in accordance with its policy. LPN - C worked the following day, 4-28-13, when she again verbally and mentally abused - and also physically abused - Resident #1. This deficient practice had the potential to affect all residents living on the Woods Unit, which is where LPN - C, CNA - D, and CNA - E worked. The deficient practice created a finding of Immediate Jeopardy, which began on 4-27-13. The Immediate Jeopardy was removed on 5-6-13. The deficient practice continues at a scope/severity level of C (Potential for no more than minimal Harm/Widespread) until the facility updates its written policy to be consistent with the training that was provided. The Administrator and Director of Nursing were informed of the Immediate Jeopardy on 5-14-13 at 2:25 PM, by Surveyor # . Findings include: FACILITY PROCEDURE The facility's policy titled, "Investigation of Abuse, Neglect, Mistreatment of [REDACTED].# . The policy had an effective date of 1999 and a Revision Date of "5/10." Surveyor # interviewed the Administrator on 5-9-13 and he confirmed this was the Abuse Policy that was in effect prior to the allegation of abuse that occurred on 4-27-13 and 4-28-13. The section titled "Procedure" states: "1. All staff will immediately report any occurrences, situations or persons including residents, suspected of resident abuse, neglect, mistreatment or misappropriation of resident property..." "2. All reports will be directed to the Team leader who is responsible for that resident. Reports can also be directed to nurse management or to the Administrator." "3. The person(s) named in the complaint will be immediately separated from the residents. Have this person(s) wait in an area where they do not have resident, staff, or visitor contact." "10. If necessary, suspend the person named in the complaint pending the results of the investigation..." FACILITY INVESTIGATION The facility's investigation, of LPN - C allegedly abusing Resident #1, was reviewed 5/09 - 5/14/13 by Surveyor # . SATURDAY APRIL 27, 2013 On 4-27-13 at approximately 11:30 am, CNA - D and CNA - E witnessed LPN - C verbally abuse Resident #1. LPN - C called Resident #1 a "[***] ," a "f...ing dumb ass" and a "f...g retard" and threatened to have alarms put on her so she could not get out of bed.

LPN - C was then suspended pending the facility's investigation. INTERVIEW WITH CNA - D AND CNA - E On 5-9-13 at 2 PM, Surveyor # interviewed CNA - D. CNA - D said that she did not immediately report the alleged abuse because the accused person was her supervisor, LPN - C. CNA - D said that she did not feel comfortable reporting the allegation to another nurse who was working, because she thought that LPN - C and the nurse were friends. CNA - D said that if it had occurred during the week, she would have reported the allegation to the Administrator. CNA - D said that she and CNA - E felt comfortable reporting the incident to Human Resources and so CNA - E called Human Resources on Sunday 4-28-13 and reported the incident. CNA - D said that, after the incident, she had been told by management at the facility that she should have immediately reported the allegation to the "on-call nurse." On 5-10-13 at 8:40 am, Surveyor # interviewed CNA - E. CNA - E said that she did not report the allegation immediately on 4-27-13, as she did not feel comfortable reporting LPN - C to another nurse who was working. CNA - E thought that LPN - C and the other nurse were friends. CNA - E said that she immediately reported the alleged abuse when she found someone that she felt comfortable reporting to. CNA - E said that she later learned that she should have immediately reported the allegation to the "on-call nurse." The facility's failure to ensure that staff implemented its policies and procedures to immediately report allegations of abuse and prevent further potential abuse led to further abuse the following day, which escalated to include physical abuse. This led to the determination of Immediate Jeopardy, which began on 4-27-13. The facility removed the Immediate Jeopardy on 5-6-13 by revising its policies and procedures and retraining staff. After the allegation of abuse, the facility updated their policy titled, "Abuse, Neglect, and Mistreatment of [REDACTED]." It is dated 5-8-13. The following changes were made. The section titled "Procedure" states: "1. All staff will immediately report any occurrences, situations, or persons, including residents, suspected of resident abuse, neglect, mistreatment or misappropriation of resident property. Reports should be made by directly speaking to the person directly or by phone. No voice mails or emails." "2. All reports will be directed to the Administrator, Director of Nursing, Social Worker or Director of Human Resources immediately. (Phone numbers can be found on the staff directory) The team leader who is responsible for that resident should also be notified at that time." The facility retrained all staff staff regarding the facility's Abuse Prevention Policy, specifically reminding staff that all allegations must be reported immediately to the "on-call nurse," a supervisor, or management. During the complaint investigation, Surveyor # interviewed staff on 5-13-13 and determined that staff were able to implement the facility's Abuse Prevention Policy, by immediately reporting the incident to the on-call nurse, a supervisor, or management. Staff knew where to locate the phone numbers for the "on-call nurse," supervisors and management. The deficient practice continues at a scope/severity level of C (Potential for no more than minimal harm/Widespread) because the facility's written policy is not consistent with the re-training the facility provided for staff. When retraining staff, the facility directed that abuse be reported to the "on-call nurse", manager, or department supervisor. The facility's written Abuse Policy directs staff to report allegations to the Administrator, Director of Nursing, Social Worker, or Director of Human Resources and to also inform the Team leader who is responsible for the resident. The written policy does not include the on-call nurse.
