Inspection Findings

F-Tag F698

Harm Level: Minimal harm or should be monitoring R26's dialysis fistula for hemorrhage upon return to the facility from dialysis.
Residents Affected: Few

F-F698 Residents Affected - Few Based on observation, interview and record review the facility failed to obtain a physician's order for dialysis treatments, update a plan of care, for a resident receiving dialysis services and failed to assess a resident's dialysis fistula for hemorrhage post-dialysis for one of one residents (Resident R26) reviewed for dialysis, in a sample of 43.

FINDINGS INCLUDE:

The facility policy, Comprehensive Care Planning, dated (revised) 7/20/22 directs staff, It is the (facility) policy to comprehensively assess and periodically reassess each resident admitted to this facility. The results of this resident assessment shall serve as the basis for determining each resident's strengths, needs, goals, life history and preferences to develop a person centered comprehensive plan of care .The care plan shall be reviewed and revised as necessary to reflect the resident's current medical, nursing and mental and psychological needs as identified.

The facility policy, Dialysis, dated (revised) 01/02 directs staff, Dialysis is another name for artificial kidney treatment. It is a medical procedure, which is substituted for normal kidney function when the kidneys fail. For dialysis, two large needles are placed. One needle brings blood from the body into the dialysis machine.

The other needle takes the cleansed blood back from the dialysis machine to the resident's body. After dialysis, the needles are removed and firm pressure must be maintained over the puncture site for approximately 15 to 20 minutes until all bleeding has stopped. A bandage is then applied. The bandage should be kept in place until the evening of dialysis or until bleeding from the needle sites has definitely stopped. Fistula: If a resident has a fistula, contact the physician and/or hemodialysis center for specific directions on care of the fistula. It is acceptable for a resident to bathe or shower with a fistula. Blood pressures and blood sampling are not to be taken in the fistula arm. Complications with a fistula are clotting and infection with the same principles applied as with a graft.

Resident R26's current Minimum Data Set Assessment, dated 3/6/24 documents in Section C- Cognitive Patterns, BIMS (Brief Interview for Mental Status) Summary Score: 15:15 (Cognitively Intact).

Resident R26's current Physician Order Sheet, dated June 2024 includes the following diagnosis: ESRD (End Stage Renal Disease). No current physician's order for Resident R26's dialysis treatments is documented.

Resident R26's current Care Plan, dated 12/7/21 contains no documented Problem/Need Areas, Goals or Approaches/Interventions to address the required care of Resident R26's dialysis needs.

On 06/04/24 at 9:25 A.M., Resident R26 stated, I have been receiving thrice weekly dialysis for many years. I return to

the facility with a pressure bandage in place which I remove when I feel enough time has lapsed. The nurse never monitors the fistula after dialysis for signs of hemorrhage.

B. Based on interview and record review the facility failed to have interventions in place to mitigate the growth and spread of legionella and failed to maintain logs of interventions. This has the potential to affect all 44 residents that reside at the facility.

Findings include:

A. The Multidrug-Resistant Organisms in Non-Hospital Healthcare Settings, revised 11/30/09, documents 2. Multi-resistant drug organisms are bacteria and other microorganisms that have developed resistance to antimicrobial drugs. Common examples of these organisms include: MRSA- Methicillin/Oxacillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus.

The Transmission-Based Precautions, revised 12/14/09, documents Contact Precautions: Are designed to reduce the risk of transmission of epidemiologically important microorganisms by direct or indirect contact.

The Isolation Room Set Up policy, revised 5/30/14, documents It is the policy of this facility to set up isolation for communicable diseases. Procedure: 7. Place sign on door to resident's room for visitors to inquire at nurse's desk prior to entering room.
