Residents Affected - Few Based on observation, interview, and record review (RR) the facility failed to revise one Resident's (Resident R35) care plan (CP) timely to reflect the status/treatment of her fractured leg after a fall. As a result of this deficiency, staff may not have been aware of the treatment plan required monitoring and interventions needed. This deficient practice could affect any resident.

Level of Harm - Minimal harm or **NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** 39853 potential for actual harm Based on observation, interviews, and record review (RR), the facility failed to make arrangements for one Residents Affected - Few Resident (Resident R35) to be transported to an appointment with a consultant. As a result of this deficiency, there was a delay taking her cast off. This deficient practice could affect any resident with outside appointments and may prevent them from meeting their highest potential of psychosocial and medical well-being.

Findings included:

Resident R35 is a [AGE] year-old who had lived at the facility since 03/02/21. Diagnoses included cognitive communication deficit, major depressive disorder, severe psychotic symptoms, and dementia with behavioral disturbance. Resident R35 has muscle weakness, difficulty walking and uses a wheelchair for mobility. She is moderately impaired with a Brief interview for Mental Status (BIMS) score of 8. On 05/24/24 Resident R34 fell and injured her left lower leg (LLE). She was transferred to the emergency room for care, where she was diagnosed with fracture of the tibia/fibula. She returned to the facility on [DATE REDACTED] with an orthopedic boot splint

on her leg, with directions to follow up with the orthopedic (ortho).

RR revealed the following progress note dated 06/17/24 entered at 5:07 PM: .Res (Resident R35) left for appt. ortho

this morning .Res with noted cast to LLE. On referral form: keep cast dry, non-weight bearing to Legy [sic] f/u (follow up) in 4 weeks for cast removal (July 15, 2024) at 10 am.

On 07/24/24, at approximately 2:00 PM, observed Resident R35 in the dining room in a wheelchair with her left leg elevated. She had a pink cast on her left lower leg (LLE).

On 07/25/24 at 2:45 PM had an interview with the Resident Care Manager (RCM)1, in the nurse's station of Unit two. At that time reviewed the progress note that documented Resident R35 was to have her cast removed on July 15, 2024. The RCM said the process to make appointments/arrangements for transport to outside appointments is when a resident returns from a visit, the RN reviews the consult notes and if there is another appointment made by the office, they notify the Unit Coordinator (UC) by phone, and she makes the arrangement. The RCM called the UC and asked about Resident R35's appointment to remove the cast. After he got off the phone, he said another appointment had been made, but could not explain why Resident R35 did not go on July 15th.

On 07/25/24 at 3:00 PM interviewed the UC in her office. She said she arranges for transportation of Residents for upcoming apts. She went on to say the nursing staff will either give her the apt card that is returned with the Resident with a new apt detail on it, or they will call and notify her of the new apt date and time documented in the consult note. When inquired about Resident R35's apt for the cast removal, she said it is arranged for August 5th, at 09:45 AM. The UC said she was not informed of the original appointment for July 15th. This caused a missed appointment and delay in removal of Resident R35's cast.

F 0740 On 07/23/24 at 1:15 PM during an observation and interview on the unit, loud yelling and banging was heard outside Resident R32's room. A large red sign on the door stated, red room, indicating the resident is on droplet Level of Harm - Minimal harm or precautions for positive COVID 19. The yelling inside the room continued for 30 minutes between 1:15 PM to potential for actual harm 1:45 PM. At 1:45 PM the surveyor went into the room with Registered Nurse (RN)12. Resident R32's bed was placed

in the middle of the room away from the walls. The bed was in lowest position from the floor with two fall Residents Affected - Few mats on the right side of the bed and one fall mat on the left side of his bed. He had a fall alarm clipped to his gown and faced to the left with one hand holding onto the left candy cane side rail. The other hand was holding onto the headboard and shaking it back and forth. He appeared in distress; his hair was messy, and

the sheets and blanket tangled around him. His gown was wet. Resident R32 was nonverbal, and his upper body was very stiff. RN12 spoke to him and firmly pulled his hands from the left bed rail and headboard to reposition him. Surveyor observed DVDs and a television in his room, although the television was not turned on. Two call lights were hanging on the wall and out of Resident R32's reach. RN12 stated that Resident R32 is very agitated today and explained that the Trazodone (medication used to treat depression) was put on hold about five days ago which has caused Resident R32 to become more agitated. RN12 stated that since he started working at the facility six weeks ago, Resident R32 has always been nonverbal and occasionally agitated. The surveyor asked why his bed was

in the middle of the room. Resident R12 said he used to be next to the window, but it was moved because the team felt that he might kick the window out. The surveyor asked if Resident R32 is a danger to his self and how can he call for help. RN12 stated that Resident R32 can't use the call light, so we check on him frequently and he has a fall alarm

in place.

On 07/23/24 at 1:55 PM in the unit one nurse's station, the surveyor asked the Director of Nursing (DON) why Resident R32 was so agitated. The DON said the trazodone was stopped due to an interaction with the Covid medicine (Paxlovid). The surveyor asked if Resident R32 was given an alternative medication to help with the agitation. The DON stated that she just got off of the phone with the doctor and received an order to give half of the regular dose of his trazodone and the complete dose tomorrow.

EMR review dated 07/19/24 revealed that Resident R32's Trazodone and the Belsomra, (medication to treat a sleep disorder) were placed on hold from 07/19/24 to 07/23/24.
