**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Number of residents sampled:2 of 12Number of residents cited:Based on interview and record review, the facility did not ensure quarterly Minimum Data Set (MDS) assessments were completed in the timeframe prescribed in the Long-Term Care Facility Resident Assessment Instrument (RAI) 3.0 User's Manual for 2 (R61 and R88) of 12 residents reviewed for late MDS assessments.*R61's Quarterly MDS assessment dated [DATE] was completed after the specified timeframe.*R88's Quarterly MDS assessment dated [DATE] was in progress and not completed by 7/4/2025 as specified in the RAI 3.0 User's Manual.Findings include:The Long-Term Care Facility Resident Assessment Instrument (RAI) 3.0 User's Manual dated 10/2024 documents: The Quarterly assessment is an OBRA (Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act) non-comprehensive assessment for a resident that must be completed at least every 92 days following the previous OBRA assessment of any type. The MDS completion date (item Z0500B) must be no later than 14 days after the ARD (Assessment Reference Date) (ARD + 14 calendar days).1.) R61's Quarterly MDS assessment dated [DATE], per the RAI Manual, must be completed by 7/3/2025. R61's Quarterly MDS was completed on 7/26/2025, 23 days after it was due to be completed.2.) R88's Quarterly MDS assessment dated [DATE], per the RAI Manual, must be completed by 7/4/2025. On 7/30/2025, R88's Quarterly MDS assessment was In Progress and not completed.In a phone interview on 7/30/2025, at 11:34 AM, Surveyor asked MDS Coordinator-C how many MDS Coordinators the facility had and who completes the MDS assessments. MDS Coordinator-C stated MDS Coordinator-C is the only full time MDS Coordinator at the facility. MDS Coordinator-C stated MDS Coordinator-C cannot keep up with all the assessments anymore, so MDS Coordinator-C is teaching another Registered Nurse (RN) the process. MDS Coordinator-C stated MDS Coordinator-C was currently on vacation and another nurse that is part of their pool nurses is covering for MDS Coordinator-C during this time. MDS Coordinator-C stated the facility has been trying to find someone for the position and they just found someone that is willing to try it. MDS Coordinator-C stated MDS Coordinator-C is concentrating on getting the Medicare MDS assessments done so the quarterly MDS assessments are on the back burner. MDS Coordinator-C stated MDS assessments are late and due to lack of assistance with the MDS Coordinator position, MDS Coordinator-C is not able to address all the assessments timely. MDS Coordinator-C agreed multiple MDS assessments are late in completing and transmitting them.On 7/30/2025 at 2:58 PM, Surveyor shared with Nursing Home Administrator (NHA)-A and Director of Nursing (DON)-B the concerns with incomplete or late Quarterly MDS assessments for R61 and R88. Surveyor provided NHA-A a detailed list of the timing of the Quarterly MDS assessments and the concern with the status of each MDS assessment.

**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Number of residents sampled:4Number of residents cited:1Based on interview and record review, the facility did not ensure each resident received adequate supervision and assistance to prevent accidents for 1 (R35) of 4 Residents reviewed for falls.*On 5/28/25, Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA)-N rolled R35 away from CNA-N during incontinence cares and R35 rolled off the bed and onto the floor. Findings Include:The facility's Safe Resident Handling, policy and procedure modified 8/21/19 documents: .F. If only one person assisting Resident should be rolled towards caregiver vs away from them. Call for extra assist as needed.R35 was admitted to the facility on [DATE] with diagnoses of Paroxysmal Atrial Fibrillation (Irregular, rapid heart rate that causes poor blood flow), Hypothyroidism (underactive thyroid), Essential Hypertension (chronic condition of persistently high blood pressure), Chronic Kidney Disease (progressive damage and loss of function in the kidneys), Chronic Respiratory Failure (long-term condition where the lungs are unable to adequately exchange oxygen and carbon dioxide), Vascular Dementia (brain damage caused by multiple strokes), and Anxiety Disorder (mental health disorder characterized by feelings of worry, fear that interfere with daily activities). R35 has an activated Health Care Power of Attorney (HCPOA).R35's Quarterly Minimum Data Set (MDS) completed 6/5/25 documents R35's Brief Interview for Mental Status (BIMS) score to be 8, indicating R35 demonstrates moderately impaired skills for daily decision making. R35 has no range of motion impairment. R35's MDS documents R35 is dependent on staff for activities of daily living, mobility, and transfers. R35's MDS also documents R35 has had 2 or more falls prior to admission or prior assessment with no injury.R35's Morse Fall Scale assessment completed 5/8/25, documents R35's score to be 14 indicating R35 is at moderate risk for falls.R35's Morse Fall Scale assessment completed 6/5/25, documents R35's score to be 18, indicating R35 is at high risk for falls.Surveyor observed R35's bed in the low position, directly next to the wall on the right side of the bed.On 7/30/2025, at 1:12 PM, Surveyor reviewed the facility's post fall report for R35's incident on 5/28/25. The following is documented:CNA-N had R35 roll towards the wall so incontinence cares could be done, and R35 rolled too far and fell into the crack between the bed and the wall. CNA-N tried to catch R35, but it didn't work. R35 did not sustain an injury. A new intervention of assist of 2 for bed mobility was implemented for R35. Surveyor notes as of 6/3/25, R35's Visual/Bedside Kardex Report document was updated to require 2 staff assist for bed mobility.On 7/31/2025, at 7:39 AM, Surveyor interviewed CNA-F. CNA-F stated for a 1 person assist, CNA-F will roll Resident away if the bed is directly next to the wall when providing incontinence cares, if there is nothing on the other side of the bed, will roll the Resident towards CNA-F.On 7/31/2025, at 7:45 AM, Surveyor interviewed CNA-E who stated they would roll the Resident away and hold with their left hand and wipe with right hand because CNA-E is right-handed and then roll back towards CNA-E for a Resident that is assist of 1.On 7/31/2025, at 9:29 AM, Nursing Care Manager (NCM)-D informed Surveyor the expectation of staff providing incontinence care to a resident that required assist of 1 staff was to roll the Resident towards one-self. On 7/31/2025, at 9:41 AM, Surveyor interviewed CNA-G who stated they would roll a Resident toward CNA-G when providing incontinence care if the resident required assist of 1. On 7/31/25, at 11:53 AM, Director of Nursing (DON)-B stated the expectation is to roll a Resident toward the caregiver when providing incontinence care for a Resident requiring assist of 1. DON-B believes R35 slid between the wall and the bed. DON-B stated CNA-N started cleaning R35 towards CNA-N but pushed R35 away to finish cleaning. DON-B is not sure if the bed was completely against the wall and R35 slid down, or CNA-N didn't lock the brakes on the bed when providing cares. DON-B stated DON-B re-educated CNA-N only, not all nursing staff. Surveyor shared the concern of R35 rolling from bed to the floor due to CNA-N rolling R35 away from CNA-N when providing incontinence cares. DON-B understands the concern of CNA-N not providing adequate assistance to avoid R35 from rolling from bed to floor.

Equipment and utensils are sent through the dish machine for final washing and sanitizing.(dish machine temperatures are monitored per dish machine operational requirements standard).Note: Dish machine related issues or concerns need to be reported immediately to on-duty supervisor. On 7/29/2025, at 9:17 AM, Surveyor observed the dish machine process. Surveyor observed the 2 front gages on the front of the dish machine. The gage to the left for rinse reads at 130 and has not moved. The gage to the right for wash also reads at 130 and has not moved. The back gage for final rinse reads 150. Surveyor observes staff continue to push dishes through the dish machine while Surveyor and Director of Nutritional Services (DNS)-H observe the process. Surveyor asked DNS-H what the correct temperatures of the dish machine should be. DNS-H stated the wash should be at 150 and the rinse should be about 148-150. DNS-H confirmed the dish machine is a high temperature dish machine. Surveyor requested the manufacturer's guidelines for the dish machine.At this time, Surveyor also observed dishes in the 3-compartment sink. Surveyor requested a test strip be done in the sanitizer sink. Surveyor and DNS-H observed each of the 3 sinks had water with dishes in them. DNS-H did a test strip of the 3rd compartment sink which DNS-H confirmed is the sanitizer sink. The test strip read at 0. DNS-H stated the water must have been sitting for a while. DNS-H stated it should read between 200-400.On 7/29/2025, at 2:54 PM, Surveyor reviewed the dish machine manual which documents:High temp dish machineAllow machine to come to temperatureWash Recommended 150 degreesPumped Rinse Recommended 160 degreesFinal Rinse Recommended 180-195 degreesSurveyor notes the temperatures of the dish machine being run in the morning were not within the manufacturer's specifications.On 7/30/2025, at 8:28 AM, Surveyor and Director of Plant Operations (DPO)-K observed the dish machine together. DPO-K explained the 2 gages in the front. DPO-K confirmed that wash should be at 150, rinse at 160, and the final rinse temperature should be 180-195 degrees. DPO-K confirmed the facility dish machine is a high temp machine. Surveyor explained to DPO-K the 2 temperature gages were stuck at 130 and did not get any higher and the final rinse was at 150 when Surveyor observed the dish machine on 7/29/25. DPO-K stated they should have stopped and waited until the temperature got up to where it should be. DPO-K always recommends for them to run a couple of empty trays until the temperature reaches the required temperature. DPO-K stated yesterday the facility had a water leak which they were fixing. DPO-K stated there is 1 water heater which runs to the kitchen. The guys may have shut the valve off and that is why there was a problem with the temperature of dish machine.On 7/30/2025, at 9:30 AM, Surveyor requested to see the dish machine operation again. DNS-H stated yesterday they should have run 6 empty trays first. Surveyor observed 5 empty trays run through the dish machine. The 6th tray, Surveyor observed the wash was at 150, rinse at 160, and final rinse at 180. DNS-H explained DNS-H completed an in-service and had everyone sign off on the procedure for the dish machine. The in-service reminded employees if the temperature is below the manufacturer guidelines to stop using the machine immediately and to notify the supervisor on duty immediately and wait for further instruction on how to proceed.On 7/30/2025, at 11:00 AM, DNS-H informed Surveyor DNS-H must have been nervous yesterday for the 3-compartment sink when DNS-H used a test strip in the 3rd compartment. DNS-H stated they do not use the 3rd compartment of the sink, only the 1st and 2nd for scrubbing. Surveyor interviewed Dietary Aide (DA)-I who stated DA-I scrubs everything and then takes to the dish machine and runs the dish machine for it to be sanitized. DA-I will disassemble items if need be. DA-I stated only use the test strips for the sanitizer-buckets in the kitchen.On 7/30/2025, at 1:04 PM, DNS-H provided in-service forms completed 7/29/25 on the topic of the dish machine malfunction procedure. The in-service reminded employees if the temperature is below the manufacturer guidelines to stop using the machine immediately and to notify the supervisor on duty immediately and wait for further instruction on how to proceed.On 7/31/2025, at 10:22 AM, Surveyor arrived in the kitchen to observe the dish machine again. Maintenance/Repair Technician (MRT)-J was observed running empty racks through the dish machine. MRT-J stated MRT-J had run 6 empty racks through. The current temperatures were wash at 153 degrees, rinse at 155 degrees, and final rinse temperature is at 185 degrees. MRT-J stated, they should have called us right away when it was at 130 degrees the other day. MRT-J stated that 1 heater was shut down to work on and when the valve was opened up it was accidently mixed with cold and hot water which should not have happened.On 7/31/2025, at 10:32 AM, DNS-H informed Surveyor the dish machine company has been called for repair. Surveyor asked DNS-H what the plan is to wash the breakfast dishes. DNS-H stated they will need to wash everything by hand. DA-I started setting up the sinks, drained and cleaned first and refilled.DA-I filled the sanitizer sink and did a test strip. The test strip read at 500. Surveyor asked DA-I where the test strip should be at. DA-I stated between 200 and 300. DA-I stated will have to wait and let it sit and retest.DNS-H confirmed DNS-H and Surveyor observed the dish machine not working correctly on 7/29/25 and not knowing how many dishes had been cleaned at the wrong temperature which DNS-I agreed with.On 7/31/2025, at 11:15 AM, DNS-I confirmed they do not use a secondary system to check the temperatures of the dish machine.DA-I did another test strip which reads at 400. DA-I was in the process of putting dishes in the sanitizer sink and taking out at the time of the 2nd test strip.DNS-H confirmed for Surveyor the employees are using the rinse (gage in the front expected at 160 degrees) for the recorded temperatures on the daily temperature log on a daily basis.On 7/31/2025, at 12:02 PM, Surveyor shared the concern with Nursing Home Administrator (NHA)-A about the dish machine not getting to correct temperature and the 3- compartment sink not at the right Parts per Million(ppm). NHA-A stated maintenance must have bumped up the hot water so looking at that right now in regard to the 3-compartment sink. NHA-A understands the concern of sanitization procedures in the kitchen.On 7/31/2025, at 1:10 PM, Assistant Director of Nutritional Services (ADNS)-L explained that ADNS-L spoke to Dish Machine Representative (DMR)-M who informed ADNS-L the front rinse gage doesn't have to reach 160 because it is a holding tank. ADNS-L was told by DMR-M to run the digital test plate to verify the temperature. ADNS-L informed Surveyor the kitchen was unaware they had a digital test plate to run through the dish machine to verify temperatures and found it a drawer. ADNS-L verified they have not been using the digital test plate to check on a regular basis the temperature of the dish machine. ADNS-L verified the temperature they are recording on a daily basis is the temperature from the rinse gage on the front of the dish machine. The temperature that DMR-M stated to ADNS-L doesn't matter what the temperature is because it is a holding tank. Surveyor shared that then this would be the incorrect temperature they are recording. ADNS-L showed Surveyor the current digital test plate verified the temperature at 162 degrees.On 7/31/2025, at 1:17 PM, Surveyor spoke with DMR-M via telephone. DMR-M explained to Surveyor the 2 front gages the free rinse, the water temperature in the tank, is constantly heating and cooling, fluctuating, and the wash is always heated, and the hot water in the back should be 180 to185. DMR-M explained the front rinse is just there to keep the water warm, and from being polluted. DMR-R informed Surveyor the facility should be recording temperatures from the back gage which is the final rinse. DMR-M explained the digital test plate will record the temperature of the sanitizing spray. DMR-M has been working with facilities on what temperature they should be monitoring and recording. DMR-M again confirmed the final rinse should be at a minimum of 180 and that is what the facility should be monitoring and recording for proper sanitization of dishes.Surveyor reviewed July's facility temperature log of the dish machine again. Per DMR-M, the facility should be recording the back gage, the final rinse temperature which should be a minimum of 180. The following temperatures documented would be reflective of the dish machine temperatures not reaching the minimum sanitization guideline of 180:22 days at 177 degrees for the 10 AM dish machine temperature.2 days at 175 degrees for the 10 AM dish machine temperature.7/14 temperatures were documented at 170 degrees for the 10 AM dish machine temperature and 176 degrees for the 1:15 PM dish machine temperature.7/20/25 temperatures were documented at 165, 171,179 degrees for the 3 meals.7/26/25 the 6:15 PM dish machine temperature is blank. The 10 AM dish machine temperature is 177 degrees.7/29/25 the 6:15 PM dish machine temperature is blank. The 10 AM dish machine temperature is 177 degrees.Surveyor notes per the facility the expectation was for staff to record the front rinse gage temperature. However, along with DNS-H, Surveyor observed the front gage rinse temperature only reached 130 degrees which would be below the 160 degrees. Per DMR-M, the facility should have been recording the back gage final rinse temperature with a minimum of 180. With DNS-H, Surveyor observed the back final rinse gage reach 150 degrees.The temperature of the dish machine did not reach the correct temperature for correct sanitization of dishes. The facility was not recording the correct gage temperature as the facility confirmed to Surveyor the expectation was to record the front gage rinse temperature.

At 7:35 a.m. RN-L approached R2 asking if she was hot as R2 had taken off one of her blankets and tucked the hoyer sling on the right side back in. Surveyor observed R2 continued to be sitting in the Broda chair in the lounge with the bird aviary until 8:23 a.m. when CNA (Certified Nursing Assistant)-V wheeled R2 out of the lounge area into the dining room and placed R2 at a table. On 2/5/25 at 9:37 a.m., Surveyor observed R2 continues to be sitting in the Broda chair at a table in the dining room. At 9:38 a.m. R2 is wheeled into the lounge area from the dining room. At 9:40 a.m. a Life Enrichment staff member asked R2 if she wanted a warm blanket telling R2 let me put music on and then will get you a blanket. Music was placed on and then at 9:41 a.m. the Life Enrichment staff member wheeled R2 out of the lounge down the hall and returned back to the lounge with a blanket on at 9:43 a.m. At 9:48 a.m. CNA-V wheeled R2 out of the lounge and into R2's room. CMA-U wheeled a hoyer lift in. Surveyor observed CNA-V & CMA-U transfer R2 into bed using the hoyer lift. At 9:54 a.m. CNA-V informed R2 she was going to pull her pants down. Surveyor observed CNA-V provide incontinence care to R2 who was incontinent of urine & bowel. After cares were provided, CNA-V and CMA-U transferred R2 back into the Broda chair, CNA-V tucked the sling into the Broda chair and remade R2's bed. R2 was then wheeled into the lounge. On 2/5/25, at 10:08 a.m., Surveyor asked CNA-V if she got R2 up this morning. CNA-V replied R2 was up when she came in. Surveyor asked CNA-V what time her shift starts. CNA-V replied 6:30 a.m. CNA-V explained to Surveyor hospice usually comes in Monday & Wednesday and they get R2 washed & dressed. Surveyor asked CNA-V how often R2 is to be changed. CNA-V replied every two hours, if she is fussy then know to change her as she may be wet or pooped. Surveyor asked if R2 is suppose to be checked & changed every two hours and was up already when she got here why wasn't R2 checked & changed earlier. CNA-V informed Surveyor she was busy and breakfast came at 8:30 or 8:45 a.m. Surveyor noted CNA-V wheeled R2 into the dining room at 8:23 a.m. the approximate time R2 should have been checked & changed. On 2/5/25, at 10:38 a.m., Surveyor asked RN-L to explain their fall process. RN-L informed Surveyor a RN has to do the post fall assessment and the resident is not moved until a RN assesses the resident. Vital signs & Neuro checks are completed, the doctor, family & NHA are notified. An incident report is filled out, anyone working with the resident fills out a statement, and a picture is drawn of what they see. Surveyor inquired if the fall is discussed as a team. RN-L informed Surveyor she believes the unit manager is involved but is not sure who is involved as she is not. Surveyor asked how the CNA's are notified of changes to a resident's care plan. RN-L informed Surveyor the [NAME] is updated and also stays on the 24 hour report board to be communicated through report. Surveyor asked who revises the care plans. RN-L informed Surveyor the Unit Manager and as a RN she can update the care plan. On 2/5/25, at 11:14 a.m., Surveyor asked NCM (Nurse Care Manager)-K to explain their fall process. NCM-K informed Surveyor no one touches the resident until a RN assesses the resident, Neuro checks, range of motion, and vital signs are obtained. The physician and family are notified. An incident report is filled out by the nurse assigned to the resident and this is brought to morning meeting where they go over the report as the IDT. Surveyor asked if staff statements are obtained. NCM-K informed Surveyor they are on the incident report. Surveyor asked if they look to see if prior interventions were in place at the time of the fall. NCM-K replied I do. Surveyor inquired who updates the care plan. NCM-K replied she does or any other manager. Surveyor informed NCM-K since 7/3/24, R2 has had 14 falls. Surveyor informed NCM-K there are multiple falls where the post fall assessment and/or IDT follow up doesn't indicate when R2 was last seen, what she was doing or whether prior interventions were put into place. R2's care plan was not always revised to include interventions. NCM-K informed Surveyor she was not the manager during this time and its hard for her to respond. NCM-K informed Surveyor there were two different managers before her and they are no longer with the facility. NCM-K informed Surveyor she is responsible at this point and will make sure the care plans are updated. Surveyor then informed NCM-K R2 has a fall intervention that she should be checked and changed every two hours and this didn't occur this morning. NCM-K informed Surveyor if she is to be checked and changed every two hours this should happen. On 2/5/25, at 1:00 p.m., during the meeting with NHA (Nursing Home Administrator)-A and DON-B Surveyor asked how should a residents Broda chair be positioned. NHA-A replied depends and explained if they are eating upright, leaving the table or relaxing a little titled back. S urveyor informed NHA-A & DON-B R2's falls weren't thoroughly investigated as there are no staff statements as to who last saw R2, what was R2 doing and whether prior interventions were in place at the time of the fall. R2's fall interventions were not always followed and the care plan was not always revised to include new interventions. No additional information was provided as to why R2's falls were not thoroughly investigated, with fall interventions and revisions to the fall care plan post fall review & IDT (interdisciplinary team) not implemented.

**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on observations, record review and interviews, the facility did not ensure that 1 (R59) of 15 residents reviewed had an individualized comprehensive plan of care. *R59 has bed canes on his bed and has a foley catheter. R59 did not have a comprehensive plan of care with individualized interventions to address the use of bed canes or a foley catheter. Findings Include: Surveyor reviewed the facility's Comprehensive Care Plan policy and procedure dated effective 3/15/18 and noted the following applicable documentation to R59 not having care plans in place for R59's foley catheter and the use of bed canes: .Policy: To develop and implement a comprehensive person-centered care plan for each Resident, consistent with Resident rights that include measurable outcomes and timeframes to meet a Resident's medical, nursing, mental and psychosocial needs that are identified in the comprehensive assessment. Goal: Promote care for a Resident that will attain or maintain the Resident's highest practicable physical, mental and psychosocial wellbeing. STANDARD PRACTICE/PROCEDURE: Interdisciplinary team(IDT) will develop and implement a person-centered comprehensive care plan to meet the Resident's preferences and goals and address the Resident's medical, physical, mental and psychosocial needs. This includes, but is not limited to: . Using an assessment process to determine the Resident's clinical condition, cognitive and functional status and use of services. . Using assessment findings to determine areas of weakness, risk, or need and determining if a care plan and interventions are needed for that area. . Establishing goals that have measurable objectives, interventions, and timeframes. . Identifying what is important to each Resident with regard to daily routines and preferred activities, and having an understanding of the Resident's life before coming to reside in the facility. . Completing the care plan with a Resident centered approach that focuses on the Resident as center of control and supports the Resident in making his or her own choices. Process: IDT will assess Resident and determine needs based on Resident's medical, physical, mental and psychosocial wellbeing. Comprehensive care plan will be created and implemented per stated guidelines. Resident needs and preferences will be communicated to staff via the use of care plans, orders, verbal communication, CNA care plans, etc. Resident needs and goals will be reviewed routinely and changes to the care plan made as needed by the Resident. Communication with the Resident and representative, if applicable will be ongoing. R59 was admitted to the facility on [DATE] with diagnoses of Malignant Neoplasm of Bladder, Chronic Kidney Disease Stage 3, Anxiety Disorder, and Restlessness and Agitation. R59 is currently his own person. Surveyor reviewed R59's admission Minimum Data Set(MDS) dated [DATE] which documents R59's Brief Interview for Mental Status score to be 13, indicating R59 is cognitively intact for daily decision making. R59's admission MDS also documents R59 has no range of motion impairments, requires supervision for upper body dressing, substantial/maximum assist for lower body dressing, dependence for all transfers and partial/moderate assistance for sit to lying movements. On 4/29/24 at 9:46 AM, Surveyor observed R59 sleeping in bed. R59 was observed to have bed canes on both side of the bed and a foley catheter hanging off the bed. On 4/29/24 at 12:36 PM, Surveyor reviewed R59's electronic medical record. In review of R59's comprehensive care plan, Surveyor was not able to locate a care plan with interventions to address R59's bed canes and foley catheter. Surveyor noted that R59 had a 48 hour baseline care plan that did not document that R59 utilized bed canes for mobility and only documents that R59 has a foley catheter but did not address R59's foley catheter interventions and or goals of care. On 5/1/24 at 8:09 AM, Surveyor interviewed Nursing Care Manager(NCM-D) whom is responsible for completing R59's comprehensive care plans. NCM-D confirmed that there is no documentation for the use of bed canes or a foley catheter for R59. NCM-D confirmed that there should be a care plan in place for the use of R59's bed canes and R59's foley catheter. On 5/1/24 at 11:23 AM, Surveyor shared the concern that R59 did not have a care plan for the use of bed canes and foley catheter with Director of Nursing(DON-B). DON-B confirmed that R59 should have both care plans in place. No further information was provided as to why R59's did not contain the care/services to be furnished with goals, desired outcomes, and interventions in order for R59 to attain or maintain the highest practicable physical well being.

**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on observations, staff interview and record review, the facility did not ensure the environment remained as free of accident hazards as possible for 1(R 36) of 1 residents reviewed for falls. R36 fell in the facility on 3/29/24 and 4/22/24 from R36's recliner. R36's falls were not thoroughly investigated and R36's plan of care was not updated to prevent future falls with person-centered interventions.

Alternatives attempted that failed to meet the Resident's needs and alternatives considered but not attempted because they were considered to be inappropriate 6. Upon receiving informed consent, the facility will obtain a physician's order for the use of specified bed assist bar Appropriate Alternatives 7. The facility will attempt to use appropriate alternatives prior to installing or using bed assist bars. Alternatives include, but are not limited to: a. Trapeze bar for use with repositioning b. [NAME] or wheelchair next to bed for use with repositioning and/or transfers until mobility improves c. Two staff when appropriate for repositioning and/or transfers until mobility improves 8. Alternatives that are attempted should be appropriate for the Resident, safe and address the medical conditions, symptoms or behavioral patterns for which a bed assist bar was considered. Assessment of the Resident, the bed, the mattress, and bed assist bar for entrapment risk(which would include ensuring bed dimensions are appropriate for Resident size/weight) and risks and benefits were reviewed with the Resident or Resident representative, and informed consent was given before the installation or use. Installation and Maintenance of Bed assist bars 11. The facility will continue to provide necessary treatment and care to the Resident who has bed assist bars in accordance with professional standards of practice and the Resident's choices. a. Direct care staff will be responsible for care and treatment in accordance with the plan of care. b. The nurse manager in collaboration with therapy will complete reassessments in accordance with the facility's assessment schedule. For long term Residents not less than quarterly, upon a significant change in status, or a change in the type of bed/mattress/bed assist bar. c. The IDT will make decisions regarding when the bed assist bar will be used or discontinued, or when to revise the care plan to address any residual effects of the bed assist bar. 1) R59 was admitted to the facility on [DATE] with diagnoses of Malignant Neoplasm of Bladder, Chronic Kidney Disease Stage 3, Anxiety Disorder, and Restlessness and Agitation. R59 is currently his own person. Surveyor reviewed R59's admission Minimum Data Set(MDS) dated [DATE] documents R59's Brief Interview for Mental Status(BIMS) score to be 13, indicating R59 is cognitively intact for daily decision making. R59's admission MDS also documents that R59 has no range of motion impairments, requires supervision for upper body dressing, substantial/maximum assist for lower body dressing, is dependent for all transfers, requires partial/moderate assist for sit to lying movement and substantial/max assist for lying. On 4/29/24 at 9:46 AM, Surveyor observed R59 sleeping in bed. R59 was observed to have bed canes on both sides of the bed. On 4/29/24 at 12:36 PM, Surveyor reviewed R59's electronic medical record(EMR). Surveyor was unable to locate a care plan with interventions to address the use of bed canes by R59. Surveyor noted that R59 had a 48 hour baseline care plan that did not document that R59 utilized bed canes for mobility. Surveyor noted that R59's current physician orders did not contain a physician's order for R59's bilateral bed canes. Surveyor reviewed R59's bed cane assessment data collection tool dated 3/13/24 and noted there was no documentation that the facility attempted to use appropriate alternatives prior to installing or utilizing bed assist bars for R59. On 4/30/24 12:21 PM, Surveyor interviewed R59 regarding the use of repositioning bars. R59 informed Surveyor that R59 uses the repositioning bars to pull self up in bed. On 5/1/24 at 7:58 AM, Surveyor interviewed Director of Nursing (DON-B) who confirmed there should be a physician's order for R59's repositioning bars. On 5/1/24 at 8:09 AM, Surveyor interviewed Nursing Care Manager(NCM-D) who is responsible for completing R59's comprehensive care plans. NCM-D confirmed that there should be a care plan in place for the use of bed canes by R59 and agreed there is no documentation that R59's were current for the use of bed canes. Surveyor noted that R59 did not have a physician's order for the use of bed canes or a care plan in place for the use of bed assist bars. There is no documentation that the facility attempted to use appropriate alternatives prior to installing or using bed assist bars for R59. 2) R1 was admitted to the facility on [DATE] with diagnoses of Unspecified Atrial Fibrillation, Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus, Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease, Lymphedema, Peripheral Vascular Disease, and Major Depressive Disorder. Surveyor reviewed R1's Annual MDS dated [DATE] that documents R1's Brief Interview for Mental Status score to be a 12, indicating R1 demonstrates moderately impaired skills for daily decision making. R1's Annual MDS also documents that R1 has no range of motion impairment on upper extremities, has impairment on both sides of lower extremities, and that R1 is dependent for toileting, upper and lower body dressing, mobility, and transfers. On 4/29/24 at 10:38 AM, Surveyor observed R1 in bed with half siderails on both sides of the bed. R1 appeared to be in a larger bed. R1 informed Surveyor that R1 uses the half siderails to help boost up self up in bed. On 4/29/24 at 12:38 PM, Surveyor reviewed R1's electronic medical record. In review of R1's comprehensive care plan, Surveyor noted the following care plan for the use of side rails: R1 has an ADL self-care performance deficit due to hypoxia, need for O2 (oxygen), weakness, deconditioning, diagnosis of morbid obesity, impaired mobility/transfers requiring assist of 2 and full body lift, right lower extremity weakness due to CVA; Initiated 5/30/17. Intervention in place for bed mobility: R1 is able to: assist with bed mobility with use of 1/2 bed side rails x 2 to aid in self positioning; Initiated 5/30/17. R1's physician orders dated 5/20/2019, documented an order for the use of bilateral half rails, to check placement and function every shift. Surveyor reviewed R1's most recent bed cane assessment data collection tool dated 1/12/23 and noted that the section documenting history of fear of rolling out bed-for bed cane, history of sliding/falling from bed to floor, bed mobility, aid in safe transfer into/out of bed, assist with independence and repositioning is circled. Surveyor noted it was not completed on a quarterly basis and was not updated to evaluate and assess the need for half siderails. Surveyor noted that there is no documentation that the facility attempted to use appropriate alternatives prior to installing or using bed assist bars for R1. On 5/1/24 at 11:23 AM, Surveyor informed DON-B that R59 did not have a care plan or a physician's order for the bed canes. DON-B confirmed that R59 should have both a care plan and that a physician order is required for the use of bed canes. Surveyor informed DON-B that R1's bed cane assessment does not reflect that R1 is currently using half side rails. DON-B stated that R1's bed probably came with half side rails but confirmed that a new assessment for the use of half side rails should have been completed. Surveyor also informed DON-B that R59 and R 1 did not have any documentation that the facility attempted to use appropriate alternatives prior to installing or using bed assist bars for R59 and R1. No additional information was provided.

**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on record review and interviews, the facility did not ensure hospice services providing end of life were coordinated for 1 (R59) of 1 sampled residents receiving hospice services. *R59 was admitted on hospice to the facility on 3/13/24. R59 did not have a physician certification of terminal illness and the facility did not designate a specific individual of the facility's interdisciplinary team to act as a liaison between the facility and the hospice provider. Findings Include: Surveyor reviewed the facility's hospice services policy and procedure dated effective 3/2/18 documents: PURPOSE/POLICY STATEMENT: It is the policy of the facility to have a coordinated plan of care for any Resident electing to utilize the Medicare hospice benefit. The plan of care will reflect the hospice philosophy as well as the individual's needs and living situation in the facility. STANDARD PRACTICE/PROCEDURE: 1. A Resident may use their Medicare hospice benefit when they have received a physician order for the services and have found to qualify through a hospice agency of their or their representative's choice. 2. Once the chosen hospice agency has completed admission paperwork, the care coordination will begin with the hospice team and facility staff. 3. A care plan will be created which will indicate the responsibilities of the hospice agency. 4. The care plan will include directives for pain and other uncomfortable symptom management. The care plan will also identify the care services which the hospice staff and facility staff will provide in order to be responsive to the individual needs of the Resident. 5. The hospice nurse and facility nurse will communicate with each other when any changes are made to the plan of care. 6. A Resident receiving hospice services will continue to receive all personal cares and SNF services from facility staff as they would receive without the hospice services in place. 7. As outlined in their Resident rights, a Resident continues to have the right to refuse services from the hospice agency as well as the facility. 8. The care plan will be kept in the hospice binder located at the Resident's nurse's station. R59 was admitted to the facility on [DATE] with diagnoses of Malignant Neoplasm of Bladder, Chronic Kidney Disease, Stage 3, Anxiety Disorder, and Restlessness and Agitation. R59's admission Minimum Data Set(MDS) dated [DATE] documents a Brief Interview for Mental Status(BIMS) score to be 13, indicating R59 is cognitively intact for daily decision making. R59's Annual MDS also documents that R59 has no range of motion impairments, requires supervision for upper body dressing, substantial/max assist for lower body dressing, full dependence for all transfers, partial/moderate assist for sit to lying. R59's current physician orders did not have a current physician order for hospice services. On 4/29/24 at 11:18 AM, Surveyor attempted to speak with R59. R59 was very angry about a razor not working and not getting a shave and expressed that R59 has 2 sets of hearing aides and neither work. R59 appeared very frustrated, tearful at times, yelling, and stated they don't do anything for me, can't tell them anything. R59 was observed banging on R59's hearing aid cases. On 4/30/24 at 12:42 PM, Surveyor asked Licensed Practical Nurse(LPN-E) for the location of the hospice binder for R59. LPN-E informed Surveyor, I have no idea. On 4/30/24 at 12:44 PM, Surveyor located R59's hospice binder. Surveyor noted R59's hospice binder contained hospice contacts, an updated plan of care dated 4/23/24, progress note which were not current, and a hospice election form that was signed 2/9/24. Surveyor was unable to locate R59's physician certification for terminal illness in the hospice binder. On 4/30/24 at 3:29 PM, Surveyor spoke with Social Worker(SW-C). Surveyor shared concerns that R59 appeared to be agitated as evidenced by Surveyor's interaction with R59 on 4/29/24. SW-E stated that SW-E hasn't observed R59's agitation but staff have commented that R59 has periods of agitation. SW-C informed Surveyor that there has not been a care conference to discuss behaviors with facility and hospice in attendance. On 5/1/24 at 7:57 AM, Surveyor spoke with Director of Nursing(DON-B) regarding R59 and hospice services. Surveyor explained that the physician certification of terminal illness for R59 is not present in R59's hospice binder. Surveyor also shared that the R59's current physician orders do not contain an order for hospice services. DON-B informed Surveyor that she did not believe there needed to be a hospice order for R59 as R59 was on hospice prior to being admitted to the facility. On 5/1/24 at 9:35 AM, Surveyor was provided the physician certification of terminal illness for R59. On 5/1/24 at 10:11 AM, Admissions Director(AD-F) stated AD-F spoke to the hospice representative and the representative would get the certification filed in R59's hospice binder. On 5/1/24 at 10:40 AM, Surveyor interviewed the Hospice Social Worker(HSW-G). HSW-G informed Surveyor that HSW-G had come in to the facility in the morning and spoken to SW-C. HSW-G informed Surveyor that at the time, R59 had asked to rest. Surveyor shared R59's concerns about getting shaved and getting R59's hearing aides fixed. HSW-G stated that SW-C did not communicate R59's concerns and stated that the hospice team will need to meet to discuss a new plan of care for R59. On 5/1/24 at 11:13 AM, AD-F informed to Surveyor that the Hospice Coordinator(HC-H) stated that the physician certification of terminal illness should have been attached to R59's plan of care but that upon further investigation, it was discovered that the physician certification of terminal illness for R59 had not been attached to R59's hospice binder. On 5/1/24 at 11:25 AM, Surveyor shared the concern with DON-B that R59 did not have a physician order for hospice and that the physician certification of terminal illness for R59 should have been attached to the hospice comprehensive care plan on R59's admission. Surveyor shared that R59's care concerns had not been communicated between the facility and hospice in order to facilitate person-centered interventions in order to meet R59's highest practicable physical and psychosocial well being. DON-B acknowledged the concern and provided no additional information. On 5/1/24 at 12:08 PM, SW-C confirmed to Surveyor that she had not shared R59's hearing aides and not getting shaved concerns with HSW-G after Surveyor had informed SW-C of the above concerns. Surveyor noted that the facility had not designated a specific individual of the facility's interdisciplinary team to act as a liaison between the facility and hospice provider. No additional information was provided as to why the facility did not ensure that R59 had a physician certification of terminal illness and why the facility did not designate a specific individual of the facility's interdisciplinary team to act as a liaison between the facility and the hospice provider.

Based on observation, record review, and interview, the facility did not ensure that food was prepared, distributed, and served in accordance with professional standards for food service safety for 1 of 1 serving kitchens. *Cook-J was observed preparing food for residents while not wearing a beard hair restraint. *Server- L was observed walking around the kitchen in areas where food is prepared for residents while not wearing a beard hair restraint. *Server-K was observed grabbing ready to eat food with gloved hands, after touching non-sanitized food surfaces, and placing the ready to eat food on plates for residents to eat. This deficient practice has the potential to affect 61 of 61 residents who eat and receive their meals from the main serving kitchen. Findings include: 1. Hair Restraints The facility's policy did not have a last revision date, and titled: Employee Sanitary Practices documents, Policy: All employees will: 1. Wear hair restraints (hairnet, hat, and/or beard restraint) to prevent hair from contacting exposed food. On 04/29/2024 at 09:06 AM, during the initial tour, Surveyor observed Server-L unloading clean dishes from the dishwasher conveyor belt without wearing a beard hair restraint. Surveyor observed Cook-J walking around the kitchen where food is prepared for residents, without wearing a beard hair restraint. On 04/30/24 at 10:33 AM, Surveyor observed Cook-J, preparing vegetables for a resident meal without wearing a beard hair restraint. On 04/30/24 at 10:34 AM, Surveyor observed Cook-J using a blender while preparing food for a resident meal, without wearing a beard hair restraint. Surveyor also observed Cook-J walk through the kitchen where food is prepared for residents, without wearing a beard hair restraint. On 04/30/24 at 10:36 AM, Surveyor observed Server- L on the clean side of dish washing station, gathering clean dishes without wearing a beard hair restraint. On 05/01/2024 at 10:24 AM, Surveyor observed Cook-J not wearing a beard hair restraint while walking through the kitchen where food is prepared for residents. On 05/01/2024 at 10:16 AM, Surveyor informed Certified Dietary Manager (CDM)-I of above findings. CDM-I informed Surveyor they are waiting for the order of beard restraints to come in and have been substituting beard restraints with hair nets. CDM-I informed Surveyor that the expectation of staff is to always have hair/beards completely covered. On 05/01/24 at 10:24 AM, While Surveyor was leaving the kitchen, Surveyor heard CDM-I instruct Cook-J and Server-L to put beard hair restraints on. On 05/01/2024 at 03:02 PM, Nursing Home Administrator (NHA)-A and Director of Nursing (DON)-B were informed of the above findings. 2. Food Handling The facility's policy with no last revision date, and titled: Employee Sanitary Practices documents, Procedure: 3. Gloved hands are considered a food contact surface that can get contaminated or soiled. If used, single use gloves shall be used for only one task (such as working with ready to eat food or with raw animal food), used for no other purpose, and discarded when damaged or soiled, or when interruptions occur in the operation. On 04/30/24 at 11:56 AM, Surveyor observed Server-K serving food from the main steam table that serves all the food residents eat. Surveyor observed Server-K, wearing gloves on both hands, touch the counter and their pants with gloved hands, then grab a ready to eat country fried steak with her gloved hands and place the steak on a plate for residents to eat. Surveyor noted that Server-K did not wash her hands or change her gloves after touching non-sanitized food surfaces and prior to touching ready to eat food. On 04/30/24 at 11:58 AM, Surveyor observed Server-K go into the freezer while wearing gloves on both hands and grab a metal cart covered with a plastic bag and pull it into the kitchen area. Surveyor then observed Server-K remove the plastic covering from cart and return to the serving line. Server-K was then observed to grab ready to eat country fried steak while wearing the same gloves and placed it onto a plate for a resident to eat. Surveyor noted that Server-K did not wash her hands or change her gloves after touching non-sanitized food surfaces and prior to touching ready to eat food. On 04/30/24 at 12:01 PM, Surveyor observed Server-K wearing gloves on both hands, touch the counter and pick up a plate lid with both gloved hands. Surveyor then observed Server-K grab ready to eat country fried steak and place it on a plate for a resident to eat. Surveyor noted that Server-K did not wash her hands or change her gloves after touching non sanitized food surfaces and prior to touching ready to eat food. On 05/01/2024 at 10:16 AM, Surveyor informed CDM-I of above findings. CDM-I informed Surveyor that the expectation of staff is that gloves are to be changed in between tasks with proper hand washing. On 05/01/2024 at 03:02 PM, NHA-A and DON-B were informed of the above findings. No further information was provided as to why the facility did not ensure that food was prepared, distributed, and served in accordance with professional standards for food service safety for 1 of 1 serving kitchens.

**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on record review, and interview, the facility did not ensure residents received treatment and care in accordance with facility policy and procedure after unwitnessed falls for 2 (R50 and R19) of 6 residents reviewed for falls. R50 and R19 had multiple unwitnessed falls and were not neurologically assessed after the falls. Findings include: The facility policy and procedure entitled Falls dated 6/2/2017 states 9. When a resident fall [sic], the Charge Nurse and RN supervisor or Nurse Care Manager will be called to assess and provide immediate and ongoing direction. The RN supervisor or Nurse Care Manager will determine if the resident requires emergency evaluation at the hospital for assessment of the injury. 11. With head trauma the Charge Nurse will complete: -Evaluation if the resident will require further medical work up and be transported to the Hospital Emergency Room. -Head Trauma Craniotomy Check Flow Sheet will be initiated. The facility Head Trauma Craniotomy Check Flow Sheet, as referenced in the facility's Fall policy and procedure, has the following time indicators for when a neurological check should be performed: initial, every 15 minutes for the first hour, every hour for the next four hours, every four hours for the next 16 hours, and every eight hours for the next 32 hours. 1.)

In an interview on 3/29/2023 at 8:46 AM, Surveyor asked RN Unit Manager (RNUM)-D what the process was for the facility when a resident has a fall. RNUM-D stated an RN will do the initial assessment of the resident. RNUM-D stated a lot of Licensed Practical Nurses (LPNs) work on the floor, and they will check to see if the resident is okay, but then will get an RN. RNUM-D stated the LPN will get the vital signs and if there is an injury at the time, the LPN will make sure it is treated, but the RN does the overall assessment. Surveyor shared with RNUM-D the concern neurological, or craniotomy checks were not documented after R50 had unwitnessed falls. In an interview on 3/29/2023 at 10:00 AM, Surveyor asked MDS-I if neurological checks are done with each fall. MDS-I stated neurological checks are only done if the resident is incapacitated, but if the resident can answer, then they would not do neurological checks if the resident stated they did not hit their head. MDS-I stated we know if it is not written, it was not done. On 3/29/2023 at 2:10 PM, Surveyor shared with NHA-A and DON-B the concerns with R50's falls and no neurological checks when the fall was unwitnessed. No further information was provided at that time. 2.)

**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on observation, interview, record review the facility did not ensure that residents received care consistent with professional standards of practice to prevent pressure injuries from developing for 1 (R2) of 2 residents reviewed for pressure injuries. * R2 did not have interventions in place to keep R2's heels offloaded while lying in R2's bed and sitting in R2's recliner chair. Surveyor had observations of R2's heels not being offloaded while lying in bed and sitting in recliner chair on several occasions during the survey. Findings include: The facility policy, entitled PRESSURE ULCER PREVENTION AND TREATMENT INTERVENTIONS GUIDELINES, updated on 6/15/2018, states: PROCEDURE: . B. Decreased Mobility, Activity or Sensory Perception . 3. Position the resident on bed pillows or other support devices. 5. Boney prominences susceptible to pressure will be protected. 7. Elevate heels off bed as indicated (e.g., place pillows under calf to raise heels off the bed or utilize foam heel boots, unless contraindicated due to medical condition.) . C. Protect from Friction or Shear . 6. Protect elbows and heels as needed (sheepskin, heel and elbow protectors will reduce shear and friction and may provide comfort but will not protect against pressure). R2 was admitted to the facility on [DATE] and has diagnoses that include type 2 diabetes mellitus, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, major depressive disorder, peripheral vascular disease/ chronic venous insufficiency, pain, morbid obesity, gout, lymphedema, localized edema, encephalopathy/other disorders of the brain, and muscle weakness. R2's quarterly minimum data set (MDS) dated [DATE] indicated R2 had moderately impaired cognition with a Brief Interview for Mental Status (BIMS) score of 10 and coded R1 needing extensive assist with bed mobility, dressing, toileting, and hygiene, and total dependence with transferring and bathing. R1 was non ambulatory and transferred using a Hoyer lift with assistance of 2 people. R1 was frequently incontinent of urine, always incontinent of bowel and wore an adult brief. R2's Potential Impairment to Skin Integrity Care Plan was initiated on 5/30/2017 with the following interventions in place on 3/27/2023: - Alternating air mattress to bed for pressure relief. Check for placement and function every shift - ½ side rails to aid resident in self-off loading, repositioning. - May use EZ glide sheet as needed for repositioning. - Check blood sugars as ordered to monitor Type 2 diabetes. - Educate resident/family of risk of increased bruising with Coumadin use. Monitor for signs and symptoms of bleeding. Report concerns to physician. - Educate resident/family/caregivers of causative factors and measures to prevent skin injury. - Encourage good nutrition and hydration to promote healthier skin. Dietary review as indicated. - Float heels when in bed. - Follow facility protocols for treatment of injury. - Follow turning and toileting schedule per [NAME]. - Keep skin clean and dry. Use lotion on dry skin. - May leave sling under resident in chair. Ensure it is flat and not bunched. - Monitor for pain and administer medication as ordered. Encourage resident to sit up in chair daily (will often refuse) to off load. - Monitor for side effects of antibiotics, and over the counter medications: gastric distress, rash, and allergic reactions which could exacerbate skin injury. - Pressure reducing cushion in chair. - See urinary and activities of daily living (ADL) care plans. - Treatments as ordered. - Use caution during transfers and bed mobility to prevent striking arms, legs, and hands against any sharp or hard surface. Make sure resident has clothing on before putting sling on. - Weekly body check with nurse. - Daily skin inspection with certified nursing assistant (CNA) during cares. R2's visual/ bedside [NAME] report that the CNA's use to provide cares for R2 did not have interventions listed to have R2's heels floated when R2 was lying in bed or sitting in recliner chair. On 3/27/2023 during record review, Surveyor saw in ORDERS an order that was dated 4/29/2019 to Float (R2's) heels when in recliner every shift. On 3/27/2023 at 11:05 AM Surveyor observed R2 lying in bed covered. R2's heels were not off loaded and R2's heels were directly on R2's mattress. On 3/28/2023 at 9:39 AM Surveyor observed R2 sitting up in R2's recliner chair. Surveyor R2's footrest was not elevated and R2's legs were hanging down. Surveyor observed R2 had Tubigrips (elasticated tubular bandage that provides continuous support for swelling) and anti-slip socks on right and left feet. Surveyor observed R2's calves were exposed and looked very swollen, shiny, and skin light pink/reddish. On 3/29/2023 at 8:04 AM Surveyor observed R2 sitting up in R2's recliner chair. Surveyor observed R2's footrest was elevated and R2's heels were resting directly on the footrest and heels were not off-loaded. Surveyor observed R2 had Tubigrips on with anti-slip socks on R2's right and left feet. Surveyor observed R2's calves looked very swollen, shiny, and R2's skin appeared light pink/reddish. Surveyor had observations on multiple days for R2 not having heels offloaded while lying in bed or sitting in recliner chair during the survey process. On 3/29/2023 at 8:04 AM Surveyor interviewed CNA-E. Surveyor asked CNA-E if R2 was able to reposition themselves when in bed or the recliner chair. CNA-E replied R2 is unable to reposition themselves without assistance of 2 aides. Surveyor asked CNA-E if there are interventions in place to help with preventing pressure injuries from developing on R2's feet or heels since R2 had very swollen legs and feet. CNA-E replied CNA-E was not aware of any interventions for R2 regarding the swelling in R2's legs or prevention of a pressure injury from developing. On 3/29/2023 at 8:46 AM Surveyor interviewed Registered Nurse Unit Manager (RNUM)-D. Surveyor asked RNUM-D if R2 had any open areas. RNUM-D replied that R2 did not currently have any open areas. Surveyor informed RNUM-D of Surveys observation of R2's swollen right and left legs.

Surveyor notes an order implementation date of 1/10/23. Psychiatric nurse practitioner treatment recommendations dated 1/19/23 reads increase Seroquel (augment related to depression). Surveyor reviewed R46's January 2023 MAR (Medication Administration Record). R46's MAR reads Seroquel 75 mg qd for depression. Surveyor noted behavior monitoring on R46's January 2023 MAR for agitation. Surveyor noted there were no behaviors documented related to R46's agitation since admission to the facility on 1/10/23. Surveyor reviewed R46's comprehensive care plan. R46's psychotropic medication care plan with an initiation date of 1/24/23 with a revision date of 2/22/23 reads: The resident uses psychotropic medications r/t psychosis, depression, occasional visual hallucinations. R46's care plan interventions Administer PSYCHOTROPIC medications as ordered by physician. Monitor for side effects and effectiveness Q-SHIFT. Monitor/document/report PRN any adverse reactions of PSYCHOTROPIC medications, Monitor/record occurrence of for target behavior symptoms .document per facility protocol. Surveyor did not note R46's care plan to address R46's antipsychotic usage or individualized interventions related to R46 antipsychotic usage. On 3/29/23 at 10:10 AM Surveyor conducted interview with MDS Nurse (Minimum Data Set)-I. Surveyor asked MDS-I if residents receiving antipsychotic medications should have antipsychotic usage reflected on their comprehensive care plan with person centered behavior intervention. MDS-I responded I guess so. Surveyor asked MDS-I who would be responsible for implementing and revising comprehensive care plans. MDS-I told Surveyor that they would implement the care plans when a resident arrives at facility. MDS-I added that they are not responsible for care plan updates and that unit managers should be updating care plans. Surveyor asked MDS-I if depression would be an appropriate diagnosis for a resident receiving an antipsychotic medication. MDS-I did not have an answer to this question On 3/29/23 at 10:40 AM, Surveyor conducted interview with UM (Unit Manager)-C. Surveyor asked UM-C if a resident is receiving antipsychotic medications whether or not their comprehensive care plan should be revised and should be resident centered including non-pharmacological interventions. UM-C responded Yes, I agree with that. Surveyor asked UM-C if depression would be an appropriate diagnosis for a resident receiving an antipsychotic medication. UM-C did not have an answer to this question. On 3/29/23 at 2:20 PM Surveyor shared concerns with NHA (Nursing Home Administrator)-A and DON (Director of Nurses)-B that R46's antipsychotic medication has not been addressed on their comprehensive care plan with resident centered interventions including non-pharmacological interventions and a lack of an appropriate diagnosis for antipsychotic usage. Surveyor added that R46's comprehensive care plan was never revised to address R46's antipsychotic usage. NHA-A told Surveyor that R46 was receiving antipsychotic medication before they came to the facility and that is the reason there are no documented behaviors for the antipsychotic medication. No additional information was provided by facility to Surveyor at this time. 2.) R47 was admitted to the facility on [DATE] and had diagnoses that include chronic kidney disease, major depressive disorder, anxiety disorder, unspecified dementia without behavioral disturbance, psychotic disturbance, mood disturbance with anxiety, unsteadiness on feet and weakness. R47's quarterly minimum data set (MDS) dated [DATE] indicated R47 had severely impaired cognition with a brief interview for mental status (BIMS) score of 3 and assessed R47 as needing extensive assist with all cares.

In an interview on 3/29/2023 at 8:46 AM, Surveyor asked RN Unit Manager (RNUM)-D what the process was for the facility when a resident has a fall. RNUM-D stated the IDT meets daily and they discuss all the incidents that occurred the previous day and Monday includes anything that happened over the weekend. RNUM-D stated if anything is needed to be done right away, the intervention is put in place. Surveyor asked RNUM-D if all interventions are added to the Care Plan. RNUM-D stated that would depend on the circumstance if the Care Plan was updated or not. Surveyor gave RNUM-D an example: if a resident is reaching for a glass of water and falls while reaching, would the Falls Care Plan show an intervention to have the residents water within reach. RNUM-D stated an intervention such as water being put in reach would be put on the Kardex so the CNA staff would know what should be done, but that intervention would not necessarily be in the Falls Care Plan. Surveyor asked RNUM-D how often the Kardex was updated and if there was a history to show when an item was added to the Kardex. RNUM-D stated some resident Kardex's are updated more than others. RNUM-D was not sure if there was a way to see a history of added items to the Kardex. Surveyor shared with RNUM-D the concerns with R50's multiple falls: care plans were not revised with interventions to prevent future falls, and no re-evaluations of current interventions after falls occurred to determine if those interventions were adequate in preventing future falls. RNUM-D provided R50's Kardex to Surveyor. R50's Kardex had the following interventions for safety: -Alarming floor mat to be placed at bedside or when resident is in recliner for safety. -Alarming floor mat(s)- check function every shift. -Clip alarm when in wheelchair. -Do you not leave resident alone on toilet or in bathroom due to fall risk, remain within arm's reach of resident. -Gripper socks on at all times. -keep bed in low position when unattended. -Non alarm floor mat to bedside for safety. -Wide bed. In an interview on 3/29/2023 at 10:00 AM, MDS-I stated the resident's Care Plan is updated and revised with the MDS assessment, either quarterly or with a significant change. MDS-I stated the Fall Care Plan is not updated by MDS-I unless MDS-I was working as a supervisor, and then MDS-I would update the Fall Care Plan. MDS-I stated the Care Plan can be updated by the Unit Manager or the nurse that works on the floor. MDS-I stated staff talk about falls daily at stand up and they go around the table to each Unit Manager to discuss each incident. MDS-I stated voicemail messages are left for Nursing Home Administrator (NHA)-A and DON-B so they know to bring up the fall in morning meeting; sometimes the Unit Manager has not been to their unit before coming to morning meeting so would not be aware of a fall. Surveyor shared the concern with MDS-I of R50's multiple falls with no care plan revisions to address the root cause of the fall. On 3/29/2023 at 2:10 PM, Surveyor shared with NHA-A and DON-B the concerns with R50's falls. R50 had fourteen falls since December 2022.

R48 had 2 thick floor mats in place with sensor floor mat on top next to bed. Surveyor reviewed R48's fall risk comprehensive care plan with an initiation date of 10/22/22 and a revision date of 11/28/22. R48's care plan reads: The resident is High, risk for falls r/t (related to) dementia, unaware of need for assist with Mobility, Sleeping often. Hx (history) of falls. R48's fall risk care plan interventions include .Full body lift for transfers, Be sure The resident's call light is within reach and encourage the resident to use it for assistance as needed. The resident needs prompt response to all requests for assistance, Educate the resident/family/caregivers about safety reminders and what to do if fall occurs, Follow facility fall protocol. Review information on past falls and attempt to determine cause of falls. Record possible root causes. Alter, remove any potential causes if possible. Educate resident/family/caregivers/IDT as to causes . Surveyor noted the facility did not complete a comprehensive review of each fall to determine the root cause of the fall and make revisions to the care plan with fall prevention interventions that address the root cause the falls for R48's falls on 1/16/23, 1/18/23, 1/29/23, 2/4/23 and 2/26/23. R48's medical record was reviewed by Surveyor. The medical record did not contain an assessment or care plan related to usage of a sensor floor mat. Surveyor requested additional information related to R48's falls on 1/16/23 ,1/18/23, 1/29/23, 2/4/23 and 2/26/23. The facility provided Surveyor with fall investigations with root cause analysis and staff statements and comprehensive care plans. Surveyor reviewed each fall investigation.

On 3/29/23 at 10:10 AM Surveyor conducted interview with MDS (Minimum Date Set)-I. Surveyor asked MDS-I why R48's sensor floor mat use was not addressed on R48's comprehensive care plan. MDS-I told Surveyor that they are not responsible for care plan updates and that unit managers should be updating care plans. MDS-I did not have any further information to share with Surveyor at this time. On 3/29/23 at 10:40 AM, Surveyor conducted interview with UM (Unit Manager)-C. Surveyor asked UM-C if a resident sustains a fall whether or not their comprehensive care plan should be revised and updated after each fall with new interventions. UM-C responded Yes, I agree with that. Surveyor asked UM-C why R48's comprehensive fall care plan is not being updated after each fall R48 sustains. UM-C told Surveyor that they don't know why this was not being completed after R48's falls. Surveyor asked UM-C if fall interventions should be evaluated after each fall that a resident sustains. UM-C responded, I believe they should be. UM-C told Surveyor that they discuss all resident falls in morning meetings but that this information may not always get documented in the process. On 3/29/23 at 2:20 PM Surveyor shared concerns with NHA (Nursing Home Administrator)-A and DON (Director of Nurses)-B related to lack of a root cause analysis of each fall resulting in care plan revisions that address the identified root cause and a re-evaluation of the appropriateness of the fall interventions after R48's falls on 1/16/23, 1/18/23, 1/29/23, 2/4/23 and 2/26/23. The facility did not provide any additional information to Surveyor at this time. Based on observation, interview, and record review the facility did not ensure residents received adequate supervision to prevent accidents for 6 (R50, R19, R17, R24, R109, and R48) of 6 residents reviewed for falls. R50, F19, R17, R24, R109 and R48 had falls while in the facility that were not investigated to find the root cause of the fall, care plans were not revised with interventions to prevent future falls, and no re-evaluations of current interventions after falls occurred to determine if those interventions were adequate in preventing future falls. Findings include: Review of Guideline for the Prevention of Fall in Older Person by the Journal of the American Geriatrics Society, Volume 49, Issue 5 May 2001 revealed that Incidence rates of falls in nursing homes and hospital are almost three times the rates for community-dwelling person age >65 (1.5 fall per bed annually). Injury rates are also considerably higher with 10% to 25% of institutional falls resulting in fracture, laceration, or the need for hospital care .A key concern is not simply the high incidence of falls in older person but rather the combination of high incidence and a high susceptibility to injury. This propensity for fall-related injury in elderly persons stems from a high prevalence of comorbid diseases (e.g., osteoporosis) and age-related physiological decline (e.g., slower reflexes) that make even a relatively mild fall potentially dangerous .Unintentional injuries are the fifth leading cause of death in older adults (after cardiovascular, neoplastic, cerebrovascular, and pulmonary causes), and falls are responsible for two-thirds of the deaths resulting from unintentional injuries .high-risk groups-such a person with recurrent falls, those living in a nursing home, person prone to injurious falls, or person presenting after a fall-would require a more comprehensive and detailed assessment. The essential elements of any fall-related assessment include details about the circumstances of the fall (including a witness account), identification of the subject's risk factors for fall, any medical comorbidity, functional status and environmental risks . The facility policy and procedure entitled Falls dated 6/2/2017 states the facility will provide an environment that is free from hazards over which the facility has control and will provide appropriate supervision to each resident to prevent avoidable falls. Definition: Fall refers to unintentionally coming to rest on the ground, floor, or other lower level but not as a result of an overwhelming external force (e.g., resident pushes another resident). An episode where a resident lost his/her balance and would have fallen, if not for staff intervention, is considered a fall. A fall without injury is still a fall. Unless there is evidence suggesting otherwise, when a resident is found on the floor, a fall is considered to have occurred. PROCEDURE: 1. Upon admission licensed nursing staff will complete the NSG (nursing) Admit Readmit Screener. 2. Upon admission, quarterly, with a significant COC (Change of Condition), licensed nursing staff will complete the 'Morse Fall Scale' form. 6. An individualized Plan of Care to prevent falls will be initiated. 8. The residents' Plan of Care will be monitored and evaluated and approaches, interventions, and goals will be modified as indicated on an ongoing basis. 9. When a resident fall [sic], the Charge Nurse and RN (Registered Nurse) supervisor or Nurse Care Manager will be called to assess and provide immediate and ongoing direction. The RN supervisor or Nurse Care Manager will determine if the resident requires emergency evaluation at the hospital for assessment of the injury. 10. The Charge Nurse caring for the resident that has fallen will complete the following forms: Skilled Nursing: Fall Incident Form - a note from appropriate licensed and direct care staff providing care to the resident prior to fall and any witnesses if applicable. 11. With head trauma the Charge Nurse will complete: -Evaluation if the resident will require further medical work up and be transported to the Hospital Emergency Room. -Head Trauma Craniotomy Check Flow Sheet will be initiated. 12. The Charge Nurse will initiate an intervention to help reduce risks of future falls. 13. The Charge Nurse will update the POC (Plan of Care) and the CNA (Certified Nursing Assistant) Care Plan. 14. The Nurse Care Manager/RN Supervisor on duty at time of fall will review all Charge Nurse follow- up and documentation including: -Care Plans. -Nursing notes. -And assure the new intervention/s and any ongoing interventions to prevent future falls are appropriate. 15. The Nurse Care Manager/RN Supervisor on duty at time of fall will assure completion of all above documentation and provide any additional direction as indicated. 16. Daily (Monday - Friday) all falls that occur in the Skilled Nursing and AL (Assisted Living) areas will be individually reviewed at the Interdisciplinary Meeting. -Interdisciplinary team members may include: Administrator, DON (Director of Nursing), Nurse Managers, admission Director, Activity Director, SS (Social Service Director, PT (Physical Therapy)/OT (Occupational Therapy), Dietitian and the Plant Operations Manager. -Falls will be recorded in the Risk Management area in PCC (Point Click Care). -This team may review the current fall, history of falls, the resident's physical and cognitive abilities, and current interventions to prevent falls. -This team will verify that new interventions have been initiated, may modify interventions for the residents' plan of care and assign responsibilities to facilitate new interventions as indicated. The facility Head Trauma Craniotomy Check Flow Sheet, as referenced in the facility's Fall policy and procedure, has the following time indicators for when a neurological check should be performed: initial, every 15 minutes for the first hour, every hour for the next four hours, every four hours for the next 16 hours, and every eight hours for the next 32 hours. 1) R50 was admitted to the facility on [DATE] with diagnoses of Parkinson's Disease, ulcerative colitis, glaucoma, and cognitive communication deficit. R50's admission Minimum Data Set (MDS) assessment dated [DATE] indicated R50 had moderate cognitive impairment with a Brief Interview for Mental Status (BIMS) score of 12 and assessed R50 as requiring extensive assistance with all activities of daily living. The MDS assessed R50 as using a bed and chair alarm daily. R50's High Risk for Falls Care Plan was initiated on 12/2/2022 with no interventions. Interventions were added to the High Risk for Falls Care Plan on 12/5/2022: -Be sure call light is within reach and encourage the resident to use it for assistance as needed; resident needs prompt response to all requests for assistance. -Ensure resident is wearing appropriate footwear when ambulating or mobilizing in wheelchair. -Physical Therapy evaluate and treat as ordered or as needed. On 12/11/2022, at 3:57 AM, in the progress notes, nursing charted the nurse received a call that at 1:15 AM, R50 was found sitting on the floor, scooting out into the hallway. Nursing charted R50 was able to move arms and legs and was assisted to a standing position with a gait belt and assist of three staff members and moved directly to a wheelchair. Nursing charted R50 had one sock on. Nursing charted R50 had a bowel movement after being up in the wheelchair and then assisted R50 back to bed; R50 continued to try and get up out of bed so was brought to the dining area with staff. Nursing charted suggestions were left for the manager regarding new interventions. Nursing charted R50 was being monitored for safety and had gripper socks on. The physician was notified. On 12/11/2022, at 4:24 AM, in the progress notes, nursing charted an incident note regarding the fall. The fall occurred on 12/11/2022 at 1:15 AM in the resident's room. Vital signs were stable. R50 was observed sitting up in the doorway with feet straight out in front of resident, inching further out of the room. Neurological checks were negative, range of motion was within normal limits, and R50 denied any pain or discomfort. The Post Fall Report for the 12/11/2022 fall at 1:15 AM documented R50 stated they had slid out of bed and moved themselves.

The nurse statement was R50 had slid out of bed with covers tangled up; R50 had been restless and inched to the room entrance where the nurse discovered R50. R50 had a history of falls prior to admission. R50 had last been toileted on PM shift. R50 was alert, verbal, oriented times two with forgetfulness and restlessness. The root cause of the fall was R50 trying to get up on own. Nursing stated the incident was an isolated event and no interventions were needed at that time. The section of the form for Nursing Care Plan revision was circled N/A (not applicable) because the incident is an isolated event. The Nurse Manager signed the Post Fall Report on 12/19/2022, eight days after the fall, and the Director of Nursing (DON) signed the Post Fall Report on 12/22/2022, eleven days after the fall. The High Risk for Falls Care Plan was not revised on 12/11/2022 with any interventions to prevent future falls. On 12/14/2022, at 3:30 AM, in the progress notes, nursing charted an incident note for a fall that occurred on 12/13/2022 at 10:55 PM. R50 was found by a CNA sitting outside of R50's room in the hall with R50's back resting on the left side of the door frame as if to be entering the room. The Registered Nurse (RN) Supervisor was notified. R50 was found to have no apparent injury except for a small pink area along the back of the mid-shoulder which later faded. Range of motion was within normal limits, neurological checks were normal, and R50 denied having any discomfort. Staff assisted R50 into the wheelchair and then into bed. Staff provided cares. Gripper socks were on, and the bed was put in the lower position; staff were checking on R50 after the fall. The Post Fall Report for the 12/13/2022 fall at 10:55 PM documented R50 stated R50 did not know what they wanted to do prior to the fall.

In an interview on 3/29/2023, at 10:00 AM, Surveyor asked MDS-I if someone was on 15-minute checks, where would that information be documented. MDS-I stated some residents have been on 15-minute checks for three to five days and that would be documented on paper, but not in the computer. MDS-I stated, We know if it's not written, it didn't happen. In an interview on 3/29/2023, at 1:12 PM, Surveyor asked Director of Nursing (DON)-B where the 15-minute checks would have been documented. DON-B stated DON-B thought the nurse wrote the note wrong and it should have read cranial checks were to be completed every fifteen minutes. On 12/19/2022, at 12:08 PM, in the progress notes, nursing documented the Interdisciplinary Team (IDT) note for R50's fall on 12/11/2022 at 1:15 AM, eight days after the fall occurred. Nursing documented the IDT met to discuss the incident. R50 stated R50 slid out of bed and moved herself to the door. R50 was forgetful and restless at times.

**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on observation, record review and staff interview, the facility did not ensure infection control prevention was implemented with hand hygiene. This was based on 1 (R17) of 1 handwashing observations. The facility did not establish an infection control water plan to prevent Legionella in the facility. This has the potential to effect all 53 residents in the facility. * The facility's Water Management Plan (WMP) was not based on current standards of practice and did not: - Include water management team members who were knowledgeable about Legionella and the facility's water system. - Identify where control measures should be applied based on where Legionella could grow and spread - Identify acceptable ranges of control limits (temperature ranges) and corrective actions when control limits are not met - Include a process to confirm the WMP is being implemented and is effective * R17 had cares performed without hand hygiene to prevent spread of infection. Findings include: 1.) Surveyor reviewed the facility's Water Management Program to Reduce Legionella Growth and Spread dated 2/2023. The Policy and Procedure Section indicates the Team job titles only. This included the Director of Plant Operations, Administrator, Director of Nurses and the Infection Preventionist. There is not an identified staff member name, along with their responsibilities. The facility identifies areas of concern through a flow diagram, however does not identify where control measures should be applied and corrective actions. It does not indicate the process to confirm these corrective actions are effective. The Water Flow Diagram indicates water stagnation in the following areas under Fireside East: the East basement sinks and utility rooms; resident room sinks, showers and tub room; Therapy department, RS resident rooms, showers, and tub rooms, Laundry department. The following areas under Fireside West: resident room sinks, showers, [NAME] Tub room; central supply; breakroom; education center. The Control Measure and Corrective Actions include: Daily water temperatures at the water heaters. Check for Hardness of the water twice a month. Quarterly cleaning of the ice machines. There is no documentation for the control measures and corrective actions for the other areas listed in the assessment. On 3/28/23 at 8:51 AM Surveyor reviewed the facility's Water Plan for preventing Legionella with DPO-H (Director of Plant Operations). DPO-H indicated they test the water temperature twice a day at the mixing point. The mixing point then goes out to the resident rooms. They look for 140 degrees Fahrenheit at water heater and check the temperature when going out to the rooms. DPO-H did not have documentation that the water has been at 140 degrees Fahrenheit at the mixing area that included corrective action. DPO-H did not have documentation how the spa rooms and resident rooms are being tested. DPO-H indicated the facility has a full census most of the time. DPO-H indicated when housekeeping cleans they run the water to clean everything. DPO-H did not provide the control measures or corrective action for housekeeping responsibilities. DPO-H did not have any testing information on the Spa rooms. DPO-H feels housekeeping runs the water, however does not have definitive measuring for unoccupied rooms or other areas. The resident rooms and areas on the Unit's were not included in the current policy and procedures. DPO-H indicated they will add this information to the policy and procedure. On 3/29/23 at 8:01 AM Surveyor spoke with DON-B (Director of Nurses) who is also the facility's Infection Preventionist. DON-B indicated they do not have Water Plan Committee meetings. The DPO-H will tell them if there is a water concerns. DON-B will also look further if their is an undiagnosed respiratory concerns. DON-B was not aware of control measure and corrective actions with the water flow in the facility.
