Based on observation, interview, and record review the facility failed to:
a. Notify one out of 10 sampled residents (Resident 188)'s physician (MD 1) and responsible party (FM 1) when Resident 188 had a change of condition related to significant weight loss of 7.6% (9lbs) in one month
on 1/3/2025, and 20.1% (24lbs) weight loss in 2 months on 1/31/2025.
b. report a change of condition (COC) for one of seven sampled residents (Resident 19) who was identified as being at high risk for contracture (loss of motion of a joint associated with stiffness and joint deformity) development and had limited range of motion (ROM, full movement potential of a joint) concerns by not Reporting Resident 19's refusal of Restorative Nursing Aide (nursing aide program that help residents maintain any progress made after therapy intervention to maintain their function) services for range of motion (ROM, full movement potential of a joint) exercises to both legs in accordance with the facility's Policy and Procedure (P/P) titled, Change in a Resident's Condition or Status.
The deficient practice of Resident 188 had the potential to delay care, FM 1 would not be aware of the health status of Resident 188, and Resident 188 could be subject to further weight loss. Resident 188 was reweighed on 2/6/2025 and weighed 93.2 lbs. Resident 188 had severe weight loss of 25.8 lbs. or 21.6% in 60 days.
The deficient practice resulted of Resident 19 not receiving services and alternative interventions to improve ROM, prevent contractures (condition of shortening and hardening of muscles, tendons, or other tissue, often leading to joint stiffness), and improve overall mobility and physical functioning.

Level of Harm - Minimal harm or **NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** 45382 potential for actual harm 45891 Residents Affected - Some 46415
Based on observation, interview, and record review, the facility failed to observe infection control measures
on 5 of 37 sampled residents (Resident 19, 87,343,16) by failing to:
1. Ensure Restorative Nursing Aide 2 (RNA 2) wore an isolation gown (protective apparel used to protect the wearer from the transfer of microorganisms and body fluids) while providing range of motion (ROM, full movement potential of a joint) exercises to Resident 19 who was on Enhanced Barrier Precautions (EBP, infection control intervention using gown and gloves during high contact resident care activities designed to reduce the transmission of multi-drug resistant organisms).
2. Ensure padded side rails (a padded side fitted to a bed for safety) were not wrapped with foam and paper tape for one of 10 sampled residents (Resident 87).
3. Ensure Resident 343 had an Enhanced Barrier Precaution (EBP: infection control intervention designed to reduce transmission of multidrug-resistant organisms (MDROs) signage posted for having a gastrostomy tube (g-tube: a surgical opening fitted with a device to allow feedings to be administered directly to the stomach common for people with swallowing problems), foley catheter (a hollow tube inserted into the bladder to drain or collect urine), and a nephrostomy bag (urine drain from the kidney through an opening in
the skin on the back).
4. Ensure staff wore proper Personal Protective Equipment (PPE: equipment worn (gown, gloves, goggles) to help create a barrier between a healthcare worker and germs, bodily fluids) when touching the foley catheter of Resident 343 and staff wore PPE while doing care for Resident 16 who is on EBP.
The deficient practice of using a foam and paper tape prevented staff for proper cleaning and disinfection (the process of cleaning something, especially with a chemical, to destroy bacteria) of the padded side rails and could lead to the spread of infection to all other residents and staff.
The failure of RNA 2 not wearing isolation gown had the potential to transmit infectious microorganisms and increase the risk of infection among the residents and staff members.
The deficient practice of not following the proper usage of PPE while providing care put Residents, staff, visitors or vendors at risk for spread of infection.

F 0880 1. During a review of Resident 19's Admission Record, the Admission Record indicated the facility initially admitted Resident 19 on 9/10/2003 and readmitted Resident 19 on 5/20/2023 with diagnoses including Level of Harm - Minimal harm or C1-C4 quadriplegia (spinal cord injury in the neck region causing weakness or paralysis in both arms and potential for actual harm both legs), polyneuropathy (damage of the nerves that can cause weakness, numbness, and burning pain) and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (lung disease that causes obstruction of airflow and can limit Residents Affected - Some normal breathing).
During a review of Resident 19's Order Summary Report, the Order Summary Report indicated a physician's order, dated 12/24/2024, for Resident 19 to be placed on EBP precautions.
During an observation on 2/4/2025 at 3:32 pm, in the resident's room, Resident 19 was lying in bed with both shoulders elevated on pillows to the side to shoulder height, both elbows bent, and the neck and upper body hunched forward. Resident 19 had a tracheostomy (a tube placed into a surgically created hole through the front of the neck and into the windpipe-trachea) tube. A sign that indicated Resident 19 was on EBP precautions was posted on the back wall behind Resident 19's bed. RNA 2 was standing next to Resident 19's bed wearing gloves on both hands and no isolation gown. RNA 2 stated she just completed passive range of motion (PROM, movement at a given joint with full assistance from another person) to Resident 19's left arm and was about to start ROM to Resident 19's right arm. RNA 2 picked up Resident 19's right arm and provided PROM to Resident 19's shoulder, elbow, wrist, and hand. Once RNA 2 completed exercises to Resident 19's right arm, RNA 2 removed both gloves, washed hands, and exited the room.
During an interview on 2/4/2025 at 3:45pm, RNA 2 stated she did not wear an isolation gown while providing PROM exercises to Resident 19 because she did not know Resident 19 was on EBP precautions. RNA 2 stated she did not see a sign indicating Resident 19 was on EBP precaution upon entrance to Resident 19's room and did not see the sign posted on the wall behind Resident 19's bed. RNA 2 stated she should have worn an isolation gown while providing PROM to Resident 19 because she provided direct care to Resident 19 who was on EBP precautions. RNA 2 stated it was important to follow infection control protocols to prevent the spread of infection.
During an interview on 2/6/2025 at 11:05 am, the Infection Preventionist Nurse (IPN) stated the purpose of EBP was to reduce the transmission of infections for residents with tracheostomies, gastronomy tubes (a tube placed directly into the stomach for long-term feeding), catheters (thin, flexible rube inserted into the bladder to drain urine), and open wounds. The IPN stated all staff must wear the appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE, equipment worn to minimize exposure to hazards that can cause serious injuries and illnesses) which included an isolation gown and gloves during high contact activities such as providing PROM exercises to residents on EBP precautions to prevent the spread of infection.
During an interview on 2/7/2025 at 5:52 pm, the Director of Nursing (DON) stated it was important all staff followed the proper infection control protocols to prevent the spread of infection and cross contamination.
During a review of the facility's Policy and Procedure (P/P) titled, Enhanced [NAME] Precautions, revised 6/5/2024, the P/P indicated EBP precautions were used as an infection prevention and control intervention to reduce the spread of MRDO to residents. The P/P indicated EBP precautions required the use of gowns and gloves during high contact resident care activities.

Residents Affected - Some During a review of Resident 87's Minimum Data Set (MDS- a resident assessment tool) dated 11/6/2024, the MDS indicated Resident 87 was rarely or never understood.
During a review of Resident 87's Order Summary Report, an order was placed 12/27/2024 for low bed with bilateral upper padded half side rails up to decrease potential injury.
During an observation on 2/4/2025 at 9:05 a.m., Resident 87's bilateral upper side rails on his bed were wrapped in black foam and white paper tape.
During an interview on 2/7/2025 at 4 p.m., the infection prevention nurse (IPN) stated the facility used Diversey Oxivir 1 Disinfectant Cleaner on the padded side rails in the subacute unit (where Resident 87 resided) and Diversey Virex Plus- One Step Disinfectant Cleaner and Deodorizer for all other units in the facility. The IPN stated that the manufactures instructions on both products indicated they were to be used
on hard, nonporous (does not allow liquid or air to pass through it) surfaces. The IPN stated the foam and tape wrapped on the bedrails was not appropriate because they were porous and could cause the surface to not be cleaned properly and also break down the foam and tape.
During a review of the product label for Diversey Oxivir 1 Disinfectant Cleaner sku 100850916, the label indicated the product was an effective cleaner, disinfectant, and deodorizer for hard, nonporous inanimate (not alive) surfaces.
During a review of the product label for Diversey Virex Plus-One Step Disinfectant Cleaner and Deodorizer,
the label indicated the product worked as a disinfectant on hard, non-porous surfaces.

During a review of the facility's P&P, titled Enhanced Barrier Precautions revised 6/5/2024, the P&P indicated enhanced barrier precautions are used as an infection prevention and control intervention to reduce the spread of multi-drug-resistant organisms (MDROs) to residents. EBPs employ targeted gown and glove use during high contact resident care activities when contact precautions do not otherwise apply . gloves and gown are applied prior to performing the high contact resident care activity (as opposed to before entering the room). Examples of high-contact resident care activities requiring the use of gown and gloves for EBPs include dressing, bathing/showering, transferring, provide hygiene, changing linens, device care or use (urinary catheter, feeding tube), and wound care. EBPs are indicated (when contact precautions do not otherwise apply) for residents with wounds and/or indwelling medical devices regardless or MDRO colonization. EBPs remain in place for the duration of the resident's stay or until resolution of the wound or discontinuation of the indwelling medical device that places them at increased risk. Standard precautions apply to the care of all residents regardless of suspected or confirmed infection or colonization status. Signs are posted outside of resident's room or head of the bed indicating the type of precautions and PPE required.
During a review of the facility's P&P, titled Handwashing/Hand Hygiene undated, the P&P indicated this facility considers hand hygiene that primary means to prevent the spread of healthcare-associated infections.

The ADON stated the RD needed to be made aware of significant weight loss but so did the physician because the physician had Residents Affected - Few more options for addressing the weight loss, more interventions, and modalities to address the weight loss.
The ADON stated a care plan should have been created for the weight loss as a change of condition. The ADON stated it was important to create a care plan, so all staff involved knew the new interventions, new goals, and the problem the resident was having. The ADON stated he reviewed Resident 188's medical
record and did not find a care plan for the resident's severe weight loss. The ADON stated it was important to monitor interventions for a COC to see if interventions were effective. The ADON stated the IDT should have met and discussed Resident 188's weight loss so that they could collaborate and come up with new solutions for the weight loss and recommend them to the physician. The ADON stated the IDT was to be done as soon as the RP and resident were available to be involved in the care planning. The ADON stated as soon as Resident 188's diarrhea subsided on 1/13/2025 the RD should have reassessed the resident and the physician should have been notified so they could decide if GT feeding could have been increased. The ADON stated the potential outcome of not monitoring severe weight loss or reassessing the resident's interventions was further weight loss. The ADON stated based on Resident 188's current weight of 93.2 lbs.,
the interventions were not working and the IDT meeting should have been conducted to address the resident's progressive weight loss.
During an interview on 2/8/2025 at 1:57 p.m., the RD stated she did not attend IDT meetings for weight loss.
The RD stated the IDT discussed Resident 188's case but the notes of the IDT discussion were not written down. The RD stated if it was not documented, it was not done. The RD stated RNA 1 did not write down any weights on 1/31/2025, she (RNA 1) just told her (RD) the weight verbally on 2/6/2025. The RD stated the potential outcome of not being notified right away of weight loss was a delay of interventions to prevent further weight loss. The RD stated she based her assessment of Resident 188's chart and information obtained from nurses but did not assess or speak to the resident himself.
During an interview on 2/8/2025 at 2:33 p.m., the DON stated facility staff cannot assume a weight loss was expected based on the resident's diagnosis. The DON stated they must closely monitor the resident's weight trends (via weekly weights) to see if any other interventions could be implemented for the resident. The DON stated she was not made aware Resident 188 had severe weight loss and that his weight loss was not discussed during an IDT meeting. The DON stated communication among the care team was important so weights can be addressed appropriately. The DON stated it was important to reassess the interventions to see if the interventions were working and revise and add new interventions as needed.
During an interview on 2/8/2025 at 3:02 p.m., the director of staff development (DSD) stated the weights should be documented in the resident's chart right away after obtaining the weight. The DSD stated, we are all human and the RNAs could forget a weight or mix up the weights of different residents if they did not write them down right away. The DSD stated accurate weights were important so an accurate nutritional assessment could be done, and weights could be accurately monitored.

MD 2 stated any significant weight fluctuations needed to be Level of Harm - Immediate addressed. MD 2 stated continued weight loss was not good and affected a resident's well-being, could lead jeopardy to resident health or to malnutrition and slow pressure sore healing. safety
During a review of the facility's policy and procedure (P/P) titled Nutritional assessment dated ,d+[DATE REDACTED], the Residents Affected - Few P/P indicated as part of the comprehensive assessment, the nutritional assessment was to be a systematic, multidisciplinary process that included gathering and interpreting data and using that data to help define meaningful interventions for the resident at risk of impaired nutrition.
During a review of the facility's P/P titled Weight Assessment and Intervention dated 3/2022, the P/P indicated weights were to be recorded in each unit's weight record chart and in the individual's medical record. Any weight change of 5% or more since last weight assessment was retaken the next day for confirmation and if the weight is verified, the nursing team was to immediately notify the RD in writing. Residents were to be weighed at an interval determined by the IDT. The threshold for significant unplanned and undesired weight loss was to be based on the following criteria [ where percentage of body weight loss = (usual weight - actual weight)/ (usual weight) x 100]:
a. 1 month - 5% weight loss is significant; greater than 5% is severe.
b. 3 months- 7.5% weight loss is significant; greater than 7.5% is severe.
c. 6 months - 10% weight loss is significant; greater than 10% is severe.
Care planning for weight loss or impaired nutrition is a multidisciplinary effort and includes the physician, nursing staff, the dietitian, the consultant pharmacist, and the resident or resident's legal surrogate (RP). Individualized care plans shall address to the extent possible: the identified causes of weight loss; goals and benchmarks for improvement; and time frames and parameters for monitoring and reassessment.
During a review of the facility's P/P titled Change in Resident's Condition or Status dated 3/2022, the P/P indicated the nurse was to notify the physician and RP when there has been a significant change in the resident's physical condition. Notifications were to be made within 24 hours. The nurse was to record information relative to changes in the resident's record.
During a review of the facility's Registered Dietician (RD) Consultant job description dated 4/2022, the job description indicated the RD was to work with the ADM, nursing, and other department heads on planning resident care issues, and quality assessment monitoring and reporting. The RD was responsible for evaluating the nutritional needs of the residents and documenting in the nutritional record.
