**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on open and closed medical record review, staff interviews, review of Emergency Medical Services (EMS) report, review of electronic monitoring device video footage, review of witness statements, review of the facility's timeline, and review of facility policy, the facility failed to ensure Resident #60 received appropriate treatment and care and medical intervention to timely treat a change in condition. This resulted in Immediate Jeopardy and serious life-threatening harm which ultimately resulted in death beginning on 10/24/24 at 7:40 A.M. when Resident #60, who was dependent on staff for oral intake, was being fed breakfast by Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA) #13, started coughing, became congested and eventually had white secretions from his nose and mouth impairing his airway. Subsequently, Resident #60 coded on 10/24/24 around 9:36 A.M. and expired in the facility after failed attempts of resuscitation. This affected one (#60) of five residents reviewed for assessing a change in condition. The facility census was 111. On 11/13/24 at 12:52 P.M., the Administrator, the Director of Nursing (DON), Assistant Director of Nursing (ADON) #45, [NAME] President of Nursing (VPN) #112 and Administrator #02 via phone, were notified Immediate Jeopardy began on 10/24/24 at 7:40 A.M. when CNA #13 entered Resident #60's room and began feeding him breakfast. Resident #60 suddenly started coughing, sounded congested and refused to eat anymore. CNA #13 left the resident's room to inform Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) #22 of the sudden onset of coughing, congestion, the resident may vomit, and the resident ate less than his normal 75 to 100 Percent (%) oral intake. At 8:17 A.M. (via review of the electronic monitoring equipment inside the resident's room) LPN #22 entered the room, administered Resident #60's routine morning medications along with a routine ordered blood pressure and pulse, but failed to perform an assessment to address the resident's change in condition. At 8:59 A.M., CNA #12 entered Resident #60's room and noticed white phlegm-like secretions draining from the resident's nose, wiped his nose, left the room, and informed LPN #22 of the findings. At 9:14 A.M., Unit Manager (UM)/LPN #21, was doing routine morning rounds, entered Resident #60's room, noticed the white secretions from Resident #60's nose and wiped his nose. UM/LPN #21 retrieved a blanket, covered the resident up, left the room without completing an assessment and reported her findings to LPN #22. At 9:34 A.M., CNA #11 and CNA #12 entered the resident's room to give Resident #60 a bed bath and noticed white frothy secretions coming from Resident #60's nose and mouth. At 9:37 A.M., Resident #60 stopped breathing, cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) was started, EMS was summoned and worked on the resident until he was pronounced dead at 10:14 A.M. after failed attempts at resuscitation. The Immediate Jeopardy was removed on 11/14/24 when the facility implemented the following corrective actions: • On 10/24/24 at 7:39 A.M., according to the facility's timeline, CNA #13 entered Resident #60's room, repositioned the resident to eat, fed the resident, left room at 8:08 A.M. and went to notify LPN #22 that the resident was congested. • On 10/24/24 at 8:18 A.M., according to the facility's timeline, LPN #22 assessed Resident's #60 blood pressure and heart rate. • On 10/24/24 at 8:58 A.M., according to the witness statement, CNA #12 entered Resident #60's room and noted the resident was trying to blow his nose.

LPN #22 stated she saw her supervisor (UM/LPN #21) go in to assess him and have him blow his nose. LPN #22 revealed she was notified by CNA #12 that the resident didn't look right so she responded to the resident's room and noticed Resident #60 was not breathing and appeared gray. LPN #22 checked his code status, began CPR, had staff notify the other nurses and called 911. A follow-up interview with UM/LPN #21 via phone on 10/30/24 at 10:05 A.M., verified she did not complete an assessment on Resident #60 when she was in the resident's room on 10/24/24 and noticed the white secretions coming from the resident's nose. UM/LPN #21 stated she had the resident blow his nose and reported these findings to LPN #22 and instructed her to check on the resident frequently. A follow-up interview with CNA #13 on 11/12/24 at 11:29 A.M., while reviewing the videos, stated Resident #60 sounded congested after she started feeding him breakfast. CNA #13 reported Resident #60 started coughing, became more agitated than usual, and then refused to eat. CNA #13 stated he was not coughing or congested prior to breakfast. CNA #13 verified she reported to LPN #22, Resident #60 sounded very congested, didn't eat very much, and appeared as if he could vomit. A follow-up interview with LPN #22 on 11/12/24 at 12:19 P.M., while reviewing the videos, revealed she went into Resident #60's room at 8:17 A.M. to give him his routine morning medications and to get a routine blood pressure. LPN #22 stated CNA #13 reported to her Resident #60 sounded congested, didn't eat well, and looked like he could vomit. LPN #22 stated when she administered his morning medications, he sounded gurgly, which was not normal for him, and she reached out to the on-call provider to get an order for a STAT chest x-ray. LPN #22 verified she did not complete any kind of assessment on Resident #60. LPN #22 verified CNA #12 and UM/LPN #21 informed her of Resident #60's congestion before he coded. LPN #22 verified she did not go back into his room between when she administered his medications and before the resident coded. A follow up interview with UM/LPN #21 on 11/12/24 at 12:58 P.M., while reviewing the videos, verified Resident #60 had a change in condition on 10/24/24 when the resident was observed with mucous pouring out of his nose. UM/LPN #21 verified the mucous was not a normal finding for Resident #60. UM/LPN #21 verified she did not complete any kind of assessment or obtain vital signs on Resident #60. UM/LPN #21 verified she told LPN #22 about his condition and instructed her to check on the resident frequently. Interview with the DON on 11/12/24 at 1:54 P.M., while reviewing the videos, verified Resident #60 had a change in condition on 10/24/24 and stated the expectations were for nursing staff to complete an assessment on a resident when a change in condition was identified. The DON verified Resident #60 was not accurately assessed by nursing staff after Resident #60 had a change in condition. Interview with NP #80 on 11/12/24 at 2:14 P.M., revealed LPN #22 sent her a text message on 10/24/24 at 9:10 A.M. noting Resident #60 sounded severely congested and had crackles in his lungs. NP #80 stated she ordered a STAT chest x-ray and duo neb (combination of ipratropium and albuterol medications via hand-held nebulizer to treat respiratory conditions) every eight hours. NP #80 reported her expectations would be for the nurses to complete a thorough assessment of the residents prior to reaching out to her, so she could understand what was going on with the residents.
