F600J · Immediate jeopardy, isolated

Based on policy review, incontinent brief manufacturer directions, medical record review, hospital record review, facility investigation review, observation, and interview, the facility failed to protect the Residents' right to be free from neglect when they failed to provide necessary care and services to meet the needs of the Resident for 1 of 6 (Resident #1) sampled residents reviewed for a change of condition and altered mental status. Resident #1, a vulnerable Resident who was cognitively intact, with a full code status was found with an acute change in condition on 7/10/2024 at approximately 10:56 AM. The facility failed to notify the physician and the family at that time. The facility failed to document a nursing assessment, vital signs, or neurological assessment until approximately 3:00 PM, which was 4 hours later. Resident #1 experienced lethargy, changes in speech pattern, gurgling respirations, and subsequently became unresponsive to verbal and tactile stimulation. The facility notified Emergency Medical Services (EMS) more than 4 hours after the change in condition, and Resident #1 was transferred to the emergency room of Hospital #1 on 7/10/2026 at approximately 4:00 PM. Resident #1 was diagnosed with an acute cerebrovascular accident ((CVA)-stroke) and carotid artery stenosis (narrowing of the carotid arteries in the neck which carry blood and oxygen to the brain). In the emergency room a urinalysis was performed which identified semen in the Resident's urine. Resident #1 was transferred to Hospital #2 for a higher level of care on the evening of 7/10/2026, where a forensic nurse conducted a rape kit and examination on 7/11/2026 and found bruising on the inside of the Resident's right thigh and a tear on the lower part of the Resident's vagina. The facility's failure to identify an acute change in condition, protect the Resident from neglect, and transfer to the hospital timely, resulted in Immediate Jeopardy for Resident #1. Immediate Jeopardy (IJ) (a situation in which the provider's noncompliance with one or more requirements of participation has caused, or is likely to cause, serious injury, harm, impairment, or death to a resident) was identified related to the facility's failure to use its resources effectively to attain and maintain the highest practicable well-being of a vulnerable resident, and to ensure systems and processes were implemented to provide supervision and assistance to ensure the resident environment was free of neglect. The Administrator and the Regional Nurse Consultant were notified of the Immediate Jeopardy (IJ) at F-600 on 7/17/2026 at 7:42 PM, in the conference room. The facility was cited at F-600 at a scope and severity of J which is Substandard Quality of Care. The IJ began on 7/10/2026 through 7/18/2026, the IJ was removed on 7/19/2026. An acceptable Removal Plan, which removed the immediacy of the Jeopardy for F-600, was received on 7/19/2026 at 2:11 PM. The Removal Plan was verified and validated onsite by the surveyor on 7/20/2026 through 7/22/2026 through review of the in-service training records and audits, review of the facility's policy, observations, and staff interviews. A partial extended survey was conducted on 7/19/2026 through 7/22/2026. The facility's non-compliance at F-600 continues at a scope and severity of D for monitoring the effectiveness of the corrective actions. The facility is required to submit a Plan of Correction.

F684J · Immediate jeopardy, isolated

Based on the 2026 American Heart Association/American Stoke Association (AHA/ASA) Guidelines, facility policy review, hospital record review, medical record review, facility documentation review, emergency medical transportation review, and interview, the facility failed to provide treatment and care in accordance with professional standards of practice for 1 of 6 (Resident #1) sampled residents reviewed for physical injuries, timely assessments, and emergency transfer for a change in condition. Resident #1, a vulnerable Resident who was cognitively intact, with a full code status, was found with an acute change in condition and altered mental status on the morning of 7/10/202 at approximately 10:56 AM. The facility failed to call 911 (emergency phone number) immediately upon noticing the Resident's change of condition. Resident #1 was transferred to the hospital for evaluation between 4:00 PM and 4:30 PM, approximately 5 hours later. During her transfer to Hospital #1 emergency room (ER) on the afternoon of 7/10/2026, emergency medical services (EMS) personnel identified a contusion to Resident #1's right cheek that the facility staff were unaware of. The facility's failure to respond to the Resident's acute change in condition and altered mental status and provide timely assessments resulted in a delay in treatment which prevented the ER from administering clot busting medications (medications that dissolve blood clots that cause strokes). Resident #1 was diagnosed with an acute cerebrovascular accident (CVA-stroke) and carotid stenosis (narrowing or blockage of the carotid arteries in the neck which carry blood and oxygen to the brain). Resident #1, who was admitted to the facility as awake, alert and oriented times (x) 4 (a person who is fully conscious and aware of person, place, time, and situation), was nonverbal at this time and had a nasogastric (NG) tube per hospital records and family interviews. At the time of the survey no written incident report was provided, and the facility investigation was incomplete. The facility should take immediate action to ensure timely identification and notification of changes in residents' condition, and timely assessments to protect residents from serious injury, serious harm, serious impairment, or death. The facility's failure to provide care and services to Resident #1 resulted in Immediate Jeopardy (IJ), (a situation in which the provider's noncompliance with one or more requirements of participation has caused or is likely to cause serious injury, harm, impairment, or death to a resident) for Resident #1. The Administrator and the Regional Nurse Consultant were notified of the Immediate Jeopardy (IJ) at F-689 on 7/17/2026 at 7:42 PM, in the conference room. After supervisory review on 8/4/2026, the deficiency was changed to F-684, and the deficiency number was amended on the IJ template and provided to the facility. The facility was cited at F-684 at a scope and severity of J which is Substandard Quality of Care. The IJ began on 7/10/2026 through 7/18/2026, the IJ was removed on 7/19/2026. An acceptable Removal Plan, which removed the immediacy of the Jeopardy identified for the facility's failure to provide timely assessments and emergency transfers for a change in condition, was received on 7/19/2026 at 12:50 PM. The Removal Plan was verified and validated onsite by the surveyor on 7/20/2026 through 7/22/2026 through review of the in-service training records and audits, review of the facility's policy, observations, and staff interviews. The Removal Plan provided covered the areas cited in F-684. A partial extended survey was conducted on 7/19/2026 through 7/22/2026. The facility's non-compliance at F-684 continues at a scope and severity of D for monitoring the effectiveness of the corrective actions. The facility is required to submit a Plan of Correction. The findings include: 1. Review of the AHA/ASA 2026 Guidelines published 1/26/2026, revealed .This updated guideline is intended to provide a comprehensive, up-to-date, evidence-based set of recommendations.from prehospital evaluation through acute treatment.Clinical practice guidelines for stroke provide recommendations applicable to patients with or at risk of developing cerebrovascular disease.Stroke is a leading cause of death and disability.This guideline aims to cover the full course of the emergency evaluation and early management of the patient with AIS [Acute Ischemic Stroke].Lack of awareness of stroke warning signs and the need to call 9-1-1 [emergency number] in the case of stroke symptoms contributes to delays to hospital arrival and has the potential to reduce patients' eligibility for reperfusion therapies [methods of restoring blood flow].IVT [(Intravenous thrombolytics) administration of medications through an IV line to stop blood clots] is proven to benefit.patients.when administered within 4.5 hours of symptom onset. Data from RCTs [Randomized Clinical Trials] and the AHA Get With the Guidelines (GWTG)-Stroke registry show that the earlier the treatment, the greater the benefit, which diminishes over time.Prompt clinical assessment by trained professionals is essential to determine whether presenting neurological deficits are disabling. 2. Review of the facility policy titled, Notification of Changes, dated 8/29/2024, revealed .The purpose of this policy is to ensure the facility promptly informs the resident, consults the resident's physician; and notifies, consistent with his or her authority, resident's representative when there is a change requiring notification.Circumstances requiring notification include.Significant change in the resident's physical, mental, or psychological condition such as deterioration in health, mental or psychosocial status.

F520K · Immediate jeopardy, pattern

Based on review of the Administrator's job description, review of the Medical Director's Contract, review of the performance improvement plans, medical record review, observation and interview, the facility failed to ensure an effective Quality Assurance (QA) program recognized an ongoing concern with weight loss, identified the root cause of the problems, developed appropriate plans and ensured systems and processes were in place and consistently followed by staff to address quality concerns. The QA committee failed to address concerns to ensure residents at risk for weight loss and residents with significant weight loss were provided recommended and ordered nutritional supplements, that interventions to prevent weight loss were consistently implemented or followed, that the facility was administered in a manner that enabled it to use its resources effectively and efficiently, that the Medical Director assisted the facility with identifying evaluating, and addressing clinical concerns, coordinated the medical care and provided clinical guidance and oversight regarding the implementation of resident care policies and procedures for significant and serious weight loss. Failure of the facility to implement and/or provide supplements to maintain nutritional status for residents with significant and serious weight loss resulted in an immediate jeopardy (IJ) when Resident #s20, 50, 79, 128, 143, and 201 had continued weight loss when the facility did not ensure nutritional interventions were provided as recommended and ordered. The Quality Assurance (QA) committee failed to ensure weekly skin assessments were done timely, treatments were provided as ordered, and failed to ensure staging of a sacral wound was accurate for Resident #50 which resulted in IJ to Resident #50 when staging went back and forth from unstageable to a stage 4 wound. The Governing Body failed to ensure treatment was provided as ordered, failed to ensure nutritional supplements were provided as ordered and failed to ensure staging was accurate by documenting Resident #128 had a stage 2 wound when identified by the physician in August as a stage 3 wound which resulted in IJ for 2 of 5 (Resident #50 and #128). Immediate Jeopardy is a situation in which the provider's noncompliance has caused, or is likely to cause, serious injury, harm, impairment, or death to a resident. The Corporate Vice President, the Nurse Consultant (NC), the Interim Administrator, and the Director of Nurses (DON) were informed of the Immediate Jeopardy on 9/14/16 at 6:10 PM, in the Club Room. The facility was cited an Immediate Jeopardy at F325-K which is Substandard Quality of Care. An extended survey was completed on 9/14/16. The Immediate Jeopardy is effective March 16 2016, and is ongoing. The findings included: 1. Review of the Quality Assurance committee report reviewed with the Director of Nursing documented by the Administrator revealed the following: a. May 2016 .There were 5 residents with weight loss for April, up from 4 residents in March. Of the 5 one was expected due to poor prognosis. Interventions put in place by (Named Registered Dietician (RD) . All weight loss was reviewed by the diet tech (technician), restorative nursing assistant (the one that weighs) and nursing . b.

Restorative nursing assistant, speech therapist and nursing in PAR (Patient At Risk meeting) .Assistive dining began heavily monitored by the diet technician the nursing assistant and assigned nursing personnel. The process for re weigh has been adjusted as all residents requiring a reweigh will be weighed by a different staff member than the staff member originally weighed by. The reweigh will be validated and entered into (Named Computer Program) by the ADON (Assistant Director of Nursing ). Assigned seating is being used in assisted dining to promote meal intake and consistency with residents .Weight loss identified the last week of April 2016. May 1, 2016 the plan of correction developed and implemented. 2. Interview with the DON on 9/14/16 at 7:00 PM, in the Club Room, the DON was asked who was involved in developing the plan of correction. The DON stated, .The Nurse Consultant, DON and ADON.

The DON was asked what was the process with QA after that meeting. The DON stated, .We had already had QA for April, so not discussed until May in QAPI (Quality Assurance Performance Improvement). We verified weights, did baseline weights on all residents, calibrated scales, had restorative weights verified by random trained Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA), we did education with CNA related to weights like, weigh same time of day, or if you weigh them with brace on today use brace tomorrow, we designated one wheelchair for weights in May 2016. By end of May everybody was weighed. We also did weekly weights x 4 (weeks) . The DON was asked at what point did the RD (Registered Dietician) sit down with you and the ADON. The DON stated, .We discussed all interventions during PAR meeting for all weight loss residents. I designated the Unit Manager to input the Dietary recommendations in to the new computer system. She put them in and wrote them onto the MAR (Medication Administration Record), if required a dietary slip she completed the slip for Dietary,like a magic cup, something that is delivered by dietary. This was during a PAR but I can't remember when exactly. Had to be in June. The ADON was performing random audits . The DON was asked what was the ADON looking at.

The DON stated, .He was aware of the corrective action plan. The DON was asked if anyone ever questioned with the interventions in place why was weight loss still occurring and did the RD tell you there was still weight loss with appropriate interventions. The DON stated, .She did. She would also make additional recommendations The DON was asked if those new recommendations were implemented right then. The DON stated, Yes on that same day before she left. The recommendations were put in a box, the DON box, the SDC's (Staff Development Coordinator) box, the ADON's box, Unit Manager's box and (Named Administrator's) box . Interview with the DON on 9/14/16 at 7:00 PM, in the Club Room, the DON was asked if the Quality Assurance committee had identified any concerns with wounds. The DON stated, .Yes, wounds that are not improving or wounds that are worse . The DON was asked what happened when this was identified. The DON stated, .We discuss the wounds as a team and talk about is there something we can do to prevent this, does the resident require different treatment, does the Doctor (Dr) need to intervene, we discuss prevention . The DON was then asked if there any follow up to that. The DON stated, Yes the Wound Care Nurse is there, she will follow up with (Named Wound Dr.), or the Medical Director. She (Wound Care Nurse) will tell us in morning clinical meeting if any changes need to occur. The DON was asked if the Wound Care Nurse ever told the committee that she had any problems with documentation. The DON stated, .We told her when she completed her documentation she needs to put it straight onto the chart . 3.
