Overview

Broadway Living Center in Lexington, Oklahoma, has a Trust Grade of B, indicating it is a good choice among nursing homes but not the very best. It ranks #45 out of 282 facilities in Oklahoma, placing it in the top half, and #2 out of 10 in Cleveland County, meaning only one other local option is rated higher. The facility is improving, with issues decreasing from six in 2023 to three in 2024. Staffing is relatively strong, rated 4 out of 5 stars, and turnover is at 47%, which is better than the state average. Notably, there have been no fines issued, which is a positive sign. However, some concerns were identified, such as failure to ensure proper sanitization testing for kitchen equipment and not providing mail delivery on weekends. Additionally, there were issues with not offering residents the chance to create advance directives regarding CPR, which may impact their care preferences. Overall, Broadway Living Center has notable strengths but also areas needing attention.

**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** 2. Resident #63 admitted on [DATE] with diagnoses which included benign prostatic hyperplasia with lower urinary tract symptoms. Resident #63 had a physician's order dated 03/09/24 for Bactrim BID for 10 days. The care plan did not document the resident having a UTI or interventions for the diagnoses of UTI. On 03/15/24 at 10:09 a.m., MDS coordinator #1 stated the care plans were updated with every MDS assessment and whenever there was a change with the resident. They stated there was no care plan for the UTI infection and it should have been in the care plan. Based on observation, record review and interview, the facility failed to ensure care plans were revised for two (#1 and #63) of 16 sampled residents reviewed for care plans. The DOO identified 82 residents resided in the facility. Findings: A Care Plan policy, revised 12/16, read in part, .The plan of care provides us with a profile on the needs of each resident, identifies the role of each service in meeting these needs, and the supporting measures each service will use to accomplish these goals .Resident care plans will be reviewed at least every three months to ensure that timely updating of problems, goals, and interventions are being done by the Multidisciplinary Team . 1. Resident #1 had diagnoses which included chronic pain, unspecified dementia, dysphagia, and spastic hemiplegia affecting left nondominant side. A Significant Change Resident Assessment, dated 03/24/23, documented Resident #1 had moderate cognitive impairment and the resident had an impairment on one side for the upper and lower extremity. Resident #1's care plan did not address the use of wedge pillows and there was no documentation of when the wedge pillows were initiated. On 03/13/24 at 11:48 a.m., CNA #1 was observed wheeling Resident #1 out of the dining room in their wheelchair. The resident was observed to have one blue wedge pillow in the wheelchair on both sides of them. On 03/13/24 at 12:53 p.m., Resident #1 stated the wedges helped with positioning but they didn't think they needed it. On 03/15/24 at 9:23 a.m., RN #2 stated Resident #1 leaned to the right. They stated they were unsure of what the positioning devices in the resident's wheelchair were called, but they believed hospice provided them. RN #2 stated they helped the resident sit up more. On 03/15/24 at 9:47 a.m., MDS Coordinator #2 stated they updated care plans as needed with anything that was personalized to the resident. On 03/15/24 at 9:49 a.m., MDS Coordinator #2 stated positioning devices would be something included in a resident's care plan. They stated Resident #1's wedge pillows were implemented because they leaned quite a bit to the side. They stated they did not know the date they were implemented. On 03/15/24 at 9:52 a.m., MDS Coordinator #2 stated they did not see the wedge pillows addressed in Resident #1's care plan. On 03/15/24 at 10:25 a.m., the DOO stated Resident #1's wedge pillows were for safety and positioning to aide in increased independence. On 03/15/24 at 11:26 a.m., the DOO stated they spoke to LPN #2 who reported they got the wedges out of the facility closet to use for positioning approximately one month ago. The DOO stated LPN #2 reported they spoke with hospice prior to initiating them, but they did not document it. The DOO stated they were unable to locate documentation of when the wedges were initiated.

Based on observation,record review, and interview the facility failed to ensure the appropriate testing strips were used for checking sanitization levels for the dishwasher and the three compartment sink observed during one of two kitchen observations. The Director of Operations identified 82 residents resided in the facility. Findings: A Sanitation test strips policy, dated 08/06, read in part, .If Dishwasher sanitizing test strip is off, use best practice: stop machine, make 3 sink system and do manually while awaiting service repair call. A Washing by Hand instruction guide for wash, rinse and sanitize, undated, read in part, .Wash. Fill the first basin with hot water (at least 110 degrees F) .Sanitize the rinsed items in the third basin using either hot water or chemical solution . On 03/11/24 at 12:29 p.m., the dishwasher sanitization was tested by the DM to read between 100-200 ppm. It was observed to be dark purple (100-200 ppm) in color and did not match the shades of the blue color grid on the side of the bottle the DM used to test. On 03/11/24 at 12:30 p.m., the DM stated that if it read high then they would call the facility maintenance and the dishwasher company. They would then use the three compartment sink. The DM instructed the Dishwasher to stop using the machine and to use the three compartment sink. On 03/11/24 at 12:33 p.m., the DM called the dish machine company. On 03/11/24 at 1:49 p.m., the dishwashing machine was in use and there were dishes at the front and the end of the machine. The Dishwasher stated they were instructed to get the dishes through to not have them pile up. They stated staff would then run them through the machine later. On 03/11/24 at 1:51 p.m., the DM stated the dish machine company told them the strip could be purple but not black, and could be at 50-100 ppm. The DM stated that was the reason staff were using the dishwasher again. On 03/11/24 at 2:00 p.m., the dish machine sanitization was tested again with a strip that came from the container with the shades of blue color grid on the side and the strip came out dark purple. They tested again with a strip from a container with shades of green color grid on the side that read light green; which indicated a sanitization level below 25 ppm. On 03/11/24 at 2:06 p.m., the three compartment sink sanitization water was tested from a bottle that had a color grid with shades of green on it. The test strip was observed to be a light gray color reading that did not match the color grid on the bottle. On 03/11/24 at 2:09 p.m., the DM added one more sanitizing tablet to the water in the three compartment sink. On 03/11/24 at 2:12 p.m., the DM added two more sanitizing tablets to the water. The dishwashing machine representative arrived and tested the dish machine sanitizer cycle with Hydrion test strips that had the purple color grid on the container. The reading was 100 ppm. The representative informed the DM they had the incorrect strips and provided the correct container. On 03/13/24 at 2:20 p.m., the three compartment sink sanitizer continued to not have an accurate reading of light blue. There were dishes in the sanitizing sink. The DM instructed staff to stop washing and to wait for the dishwasher to be fixed. On 03/13/24 at 2:47 p.m., Dietary Aide #2 was observed to prepare the three compartment sink. The wash water temp was 104 degrees. Dietary Aide #2 stated they did not check the temperature of the water and that it couldn't be too hot to put their hands in. On 03/13/24 at 2:51 p.m., the DM stated the wash water should have been temped and they thought they had the correct strips for testing the sanitizer. On 03/13/24 at 2:57 p.m., the DM stated the sanitizer strips used in the three compartment sink were the wrong strips. On 03/14/24 at 10:58 a.m., the DM stated they assumed the test strips were correct even though the color grid was different, and they went by the actual amount of shading and not the color of the strip.

Based on observation, record review and interview, it was determined the facility failed to ensure one (#64) of one sampled residents was provided a means to ambulate in the facility without being confined to a wheelchair. The facility identified 25 residents who required assistance with mobility and 87 residents who resided in the facility. Findings: Resident #64 had diagnoses which included non Alzheimer's dementia. An annual assessment, dated 01/23/20, documented the resident's cognition was severely impaired and was independent with the use of a wheelchair for mobility. A care plan for ADLs, dated 02/11/20, documented the resident was primarily independent with her ADL tasks. She was able to self transfer, dress and toilet herself. She utilized a wheelchair for mobility and at times would stand up and push the backwards facing chair, and was unable to be redirected. Interventions included to encourage the resident to participate to the fullest extent possible with each interaction. The clinical record documented the resident was receiving weekly restorative care and continued to work with ambulatory lower extremity exercises, both active and passive. On all days of the survey, the resident was observed to stand up, face her wheelchair and push it down the hall. When staff observed the resident, they stopped her and told her to sit in the wheelchair. The resident complied and would sit down. On 03/05/20 at 9:43 a.m., CNA #5 was asked if the resident could ambulate by herself. She stated the resident could walk behind her wheelchair and she transferred herself. She was asked if the resident had any falls. She stated she was not aware of any. The CNA was asked if she observed the resident ambulate safely. She stated yes. She was asked why the resident was encouraged to use a wheelchair instead of another means. She stated it was because it was in her care plan to use a wheelchair and they were to direct her to sit down if they observed her up. She stated it was up to the DON and ADON as they were the ones who made the care plan. At 11:19 a.m., the DON was asked if the resident was capable of ambulating. She stated yes, she could walk behind the wheelchair. She was informed of the observations of staff telling her she needed to sit in her wheelchair when they observed her up walking behind it. She stated yes, it did take away from her independence. They would look at that concern.
