155206

During a continuous observation on 4/27/25 from 10:42 a.m. to 11:03 a.m., there were no CNA's or nurses on the 500 hallway, and 13 of 25 residents were observed to still be in bed.

Observations of Resident S included,

a. On 4/27/25 at 11:15 a.m., Resident S was observed sitting in a manual wheelchair at bedside, wearing a hospital gown with a fleece cardigan over her shoulders, her bare feet resting on the floor, and emitting a deep congested tight cough.

The resident had a nasal cannula for oxygen in her nose attached to a bedside concentrator and gestured to her oxygen tubing which she took out of her brief, and indicated the CNA had put the oxygen tubing inside her brief and the resident had untaped her brief to get the tubing out. A tray of breakfast food was observed sitting on an over the bed table untouched.

The resident indicated she preferred to eat breakfast after being out of bed, but most often did not get up until around 10:00 a.m., and by then the food was cold.

The resident gestured to her nebulizer sitting on the bed beside her and the nebulizer handheld mouthpiece was unbagged and lying in the middle of the bed among her bedding.

Resident S indicated the nurse had put the nebulizer handpiece on the bedside table that morning, and after she was assisted out of bed, CNA 17 handed her the nebulizer handpiece, spilled half of the medication, and turned on the machine, therefore she did not get her full treatment. A portable oxygen concentrator was observed on a bedside table on the back side of the bed, in the on position, and the attached nasal cannula was laying on the floor.

The resident indicated she used the portable concentrator when going out of her room.
