F684E · No harm, potential for more than minimal, pattern

Based on review of facility policy, clinical records, and staff interviews, it was determined that the facility failed to assess, document, and notify physicians of decreased Capillary Blood Glucose (CBG) levels for three of seven residents reviewed (Residents R6, R86, and R100).Findings include: The Centers for Disease Control define diabetes as: Diabetes Mellitus is a chronic (long-lasting) health condition that affects how your body turns food into energy. Most of the food you eat is broken down into sugar (also called glucose) and released into your bloodstream. When your blood sugar goes up, it signals your pancreas to release insulin. Insulin acts like a key to let the blood sugar into your body's cells for use as energy. If you have diabetes, your body either doesn't make enough insulin or can't use the insulin it makes as well as it should. When there isn't enough insulin or cells stop responding to insulin, too much blood sugar stays in your bloodstream. Over time, that can cause serious health problems, such as heart disease, vision loss, and kidney disease. Hypoglycemia is a condition that occurs when blood glucose is lower than normal, usually below 70 milligrams per deciliter (mg/dl). If left untreated, hypoglycemia may lead to weakness, confusion, unconsciousness, arrhythmias and even death. People with Diabetes Mellitus may be prescribed injectable insulin to assist in maintaining acceptable levels of CBG's. Hyperglycemia, or high blood glucose, occurs when there is too much sugar in the blood. This happens when your body has too little insulin. Hyperglycemia is blood glucose greater than 125 mg/dL while fasting (not eating for at least eight hours, or a blood glucose greater than 180 mg/dL one to two hours after eating. If you have hyperglycemia and it ' s untreated for long periods of time, you can damage your nerves, blood vessels, tissues and organs. Damage to blood vessels can increase your risk of heart attack and stroke, and nerve damage may also lead to eye damage, kidney damage and non-healing wounds. Review of the facility policy Management of Hypoglycemia reviewed 1/16/25, indicated the facility provided guidelines for managing hypoglycemia secondary to insulin therapy, or oral hypoglycemic agents. The facility classification/implement protocol of hypoglycemia is as follows:- Level 1: Blood glucose is less than 70mg/dl but greater than 54 mg/dl. Protocol: give oral form of glucose, notify provider immediately, remain with resident, recheck blood glucose in 15 minutes, provide resident meal or snack.- Level 2: Blood glucose is less than 54 mg/dl. Protocol: administer glucagon (rapid form of glucose), notify provider immediately, remain with the resident, place resident in a comfortable and safe place, monitor vital signs, and recheck blood glucose in 15 minutes.- Level 3: Altered mental and/or physical status requiring assistance for treatment of hypoglycemia. Protocol: call 911, administer glucagon or intravenous (IV) 50% glucose, if IV access. Review of the facility policy Change in Resident's Condition or Status reviewed 1/16/25, indicated the nurse will notify the resident's attending physician or physician on call when there has been a need to alter the resident's medical treatment significantly. A significant change of condition is a major decline or improvement in the resident's status that will not normally resolve itself without intervention by staff or by implementing standard disease-related clinical interventions. Prior to notifying the physician or healthcare provider, the nurse will make detailed observations and gather relevant and pertinent information for the provider. The nurse will record in the resident's medical record information relative to changes in the resident's medical/mental condition or status. Review of the clinical record revealed Resident R6 was admitted to the facility on [DATE], with diagnoses that included congestive heart failure (progressive heart disease that affects pumping action of the heart muscles), diabetes, and high blood pressure.

Based on review of facility policy, observations, and resident and staff interviews, it was determined that the facility failed to make accessible grievance boxes to residents in three of three locations, 300-lounge, main dining room, and front lobby. Findings include: A review of the facility policy Grievances/Complaints, Filing reviewed 1/16/25, grievances and/or complaints may be submitted orally or in writing and may be filed anonymously. The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) does not specify exact height requirements for grievance boxes in skilled nursing facilities. However, CMS mandates that grievance procedures be accessible to all residents, including those with disabilities, in compliance with the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA). In Pennsylvania, the Department of Health incorporates by reference the federal requirements outlined in 42 CFR Part 483, Subpart B, which pertains to long-term care facilities. These regulations emphasize the importance of accessibility but do not provide additional specifications regarding grievance box placement. To ensure accessibility, the ADA Standards for Accessible Design recommend that operable parts, such as slots on grievance boxes, be mounted between 15 and 48 inches above the floor. This range accommodates individuals using wheelchairs and ensures usability for a broad range of residents. During a resident group interview, on 11/24/25 at approximately 1:30 p.m., when asked if they felt they could anonymously file a grievance in the grievance boxes, consensus from the group was no. Residents stated, they are too high to reach, they are not made for people in wheelchairs, and you have to ask someone to help you, so we just ask the staff to do it for us. During rounds on 11/26/25, at 8:15 a.m. the Nursing Home Administrator and surveyor measured the height of the grievance boxes in the 300-lounge, height was 53 inches, main dining room, height was 52 inches, and front lobby, height was 51 inches. Access to the boxes in both the 300 lounge and front lobby were blocked by a table. During an interview on 11/26/25, at 8:30 a.m. the Nursing Home Administrator confirmed the facility failed to make accessible grievance boxes to residents in three of three locations, 300-lounge, main dining room, and front lobby. 28 PA Code: 201.18(e)(4) Management. 28 PA Code: 201.29(a)(b)(c) Resident rights.

The requirements include avoiding unassisted handling of residents and/or identifying potential high risk residents to avoid potential injuries. Review of the clinical record indicated Resident R1 was admitted to the facility on [DATE], with diagnoses which included anemia, gastrointestinal bleed, diabetes, a stroke, sacroilitis(inflammation of the pelvic joint), anxiety, difficulty walking, abnormal posture, and Stage 5 kidney disease, the resident refuses dialysis and will return home with Hospice. A Minimum Data Set (MDS - a periodic assessment of resident care needs) dated 3/12/25, indicated the diagnoses remained current, Section GG 0115 Functional Limitation/Range of Motion identified Resident R1 having bilateral upper extremity impairments. Section GG 0170 Mobility identified Resident R1 as partial/ moderate assist (which required one staff that does less than half the effort ) for bed mobility. Additionally, Resident R1's BIMS was 15. This indicated cognition was intact. Review of Resident R1's Resident Evaluation dated 3/12/25, indicated the use of bed rails. Review of Resident R1's plan of care dated 2/25/25, indicated Resident R1 was at risk for falls due to impaired balance/poor coordination and to minimize risk for falls or injuries related to falls Resident R1 was to be encouraged to change positions slowly and use assistive devices as needed and staff were to provide assistance to transfer and ambulate as needed. Resident R1 was also identified as having an ADL (assistance of daily living) deficit related to physical limitations and as to receive necessary assistance to meet her ADL needs with use of bedrails. Review of an incident report dated 4/1/25, at 11:40 p.m., indicated that Resident R1 was being provided incontinence care by Nurse Aide (NA) Employee E1. Resident R1 had loose stools and had not been changed at the hospital. NA Employee E1 turned Resident R1 away from her and then took hands off the resident and reached away to get cleansing spray from the nightstand; NA Employee E1 stated she heard a thud, and the resident had rolled out of bed resulting in the subarachnoid hemorrhage, scalp laceration, and C4 fracture. Bed rails were not on the bed a the time of the incident. Review of the statement that was attached to the investigation undated but signed by NA Employee E1 stated that I rolled Resident R1 to the right side to left side several times to remove linens, blankets and sheets from her bed and in doing that I went from left side to right side several times. Resident R1 asked me to change her brief since it had not been done at the hospital all day. I opened the brief and she was saturated with bowel. I wiped and sprayed the front then put her on her side and wiped the back, took the brief off and liquid bowel sprayed across the sheet.
