Safeguard resident-identifiable information and/or maintain medical records on each resident that are in accordance with accepted professional standards.

Based on observations, interviews, and record reviews, the facility failed to maintain accurate records for 1 (Resident #3) of 3 sampled residents reviewed for accurate documentation. Findings:Review of the facility's undated Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) job description revealed, in part, duties and responsibilities included maintaining accurate documentation of nursing care, including nurse's notes and electronic records. Review of the facility's undated Checking Gastric Residual Volume (GRV) policy and procedure, revealed, in part, the person performing this procedure should record the date and time the procedure was performed and the amount of gastric residual in the resident's medical record. Review of Resident #3's December 2025 physician's orders revealed, in part, an order dated 11/11/2025 for Isosource 1.5 (a type of liquid nutritional supplement that is typically given through a tube directly inserted into the stomach) at 58 milliliters (mL)/hour via percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy (PEG) tube (a tube inserted through the skin into the stomach to provide liquid nourishment) for 21 hours to be started at 12:00PM and stopped at 9:00AM. Review of Resident #3's Medication Admin Audit Report, dated 12/17/2025, revealed, in part, S6LPN documented Resident #3's Isosource 1.5 feedings were restarted at a rate of 58 mL/hour on 12/17/2025 at 11:08AM. Review of Resident #3's nurse's notes, dated 12/17/2025 at 12:17PM, written by S6LPN indicated, in part, 315 mL of residual, feeding held. Further review revealed no nurse's notes dated 12/17/2025 when Resident #3's enteral feeds were restarted and/or Resident #3's subsequent residual checks. Observation on 12/17/2025 at 1:00PM revealed Resident #3's feeding pump remained off and feed tubing was not connected to Resident #3's PEG tube port. In an interview on 12/17/2025 at 2:38PM, S6LPN indicated Resident #3's enteral feedings were held and not currently running due to a high residual.

S6LPN further indicated she documented Resident #3's enteral feedings were restarted at 11:08AM and should not have been. Observation on 12/17/2025 at 2:45PM revealed Resident #3's feeding pump remained off and feed tubing was not connected to Resident #3's PEG tube port. Observation on 12/17/2025 at 2:51PM revealed S6LPN performed a PEG tube residual check on Resident #3's PEG tube.

Further observation revealed 50 mL residual was removed. Observation on 12/17/2025 at 3:08PM revealed S6LPN restarted Resident #3's enteral feeds. Review of Resident #3's medical record revealed, in part, S6LPN did not document the feeding residual check on 12/17/2025 at 2:51PM. Further review revealed S6LPN did not document the actual time Resident #3's enteral feedings were restarted on 12/17/2025. In

an interview on 12/22/2025 at 10:19AM, S3Director of Nursing (DON) confirmed S6LPN should have accurately documented Resident #3's enteral feeding times and Resident #3's enteral feeding residual checks including the date, time, and amount in Resident #3's medical record.
