Overall, while the facility has strengths in RN coverage and is showing signs of improvement, concerns about staffing and compliance issues should be carefully considered.

**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** 2. Review of Resident #54's medical record revealed the resident was admitted to the facility on [DATE]. Diagnoses included chronic lymphocytic leukemia of B-cell type, multiple myeloma, and atherosclerotic heart disease. Review of the resident's physician orders, dated [DATE], revealed the resident's advanced directive was to be a full code status. Review of the resident's paper medical record revealed a sticker on the exterior cover of Resident #54's chart and stated the resident was a full code. There was a signed Do Not Resuscitate Comfort Care Arrest (DNR-CCA) (the resident wanted to permit the use of life-saving measures (such as powerful heart or blood pressure medications) before a person's heart or breathing stopped. At a time where the heart stopped beating or breathing stopped, no CPR was to be performed.) form, dated [DATE], inside the paper medical record. Interview on [DATE] at 11:30 A.M. with Registered Nurse (RN) #330 verified Resident #54's physician order stated the resident's advanced directive wish was to be a full code. However, RN #330 verified the resident changed his advanced directive wish and signed a DNR-CCA on [DATE]. RN #330 verified the resident's orders were never updated to reflect the new wishes of the resident. Based on medical record review and staff interviews, the facility failed to ensure the resident's advance directives were accurate in the medical record. This affected two (Resident #19 and #54) of 18 residents reviewed for advance directives. The facility census was 59. Findings include: 1.

Review of the paper medical chart, on [DATE], revealed the outside of the chart included a Full Code sticker. The physician orders, dated [DATE], continued to state full code status and did not have Resident #19's updated advance directives of DNR. The electronic record incorrectly identified Resident #19's code status to be full code. Interview with the Director of Nursing (DON) on [DATE] at 8:07 A.M. confirmed Resident #19's advanced directives, currently in the paper and electronic records, were not accurate with the resident's advance directives when they were changed on [DATE].

The air pressure management was to assist in the prevention and treatment of up to stage IV pressure ulcers. Alternating pressure provides 10, 15, 20 and 25 minute loading and unloading cycles designed to maintain low interface pressures throughout the mattress, to redistribute peak interface pressures during the cycle.
