-No further assessment needed.
On 1/15/25 at 1:10 P.M., the surveyor observed Resident #65 sitting in a wheelchair in the Unit Dining Room.
The Resident was wearing a hospital gown that was tied loosely around his/her neck and his/her forearms and lower legs from the calf down to his/her ankles were exposed. The surveyor observed that the Resident was very thin and both sides of the Resident's neck were sunken in behind his/her collar bone, and the Resident's exposed lower legs and forearms were thin and boney.
During an interview on 1/15/25 at 1:23 P.M., CNA #1 said that house supplements were delivered to the Unit by the kitchen staff and that House supplements were not stocked on the Unit. CNA #1 said that the kitchen staff sent one House supplement for each meal on Resident #65's meal trays. CNA #1 said that Resident #65 often consumed the house shakes and that the Resident enjoyed food items that were sweet tasting. CNA #1 also said that meal percentages consumed for every meal provided were to be recorded in the computer for all residents. CNA #1 said that not all meals got recorded at times when there was too much going on the Unit and if there were staff call-outs. CNA #1 said that residents are weighed monthly, weekly, or daily, depending on what the residents need and that the Nurse alerts the CNAs to weights needing to be obtained. CNA #1 said that the Nurse was responsible to enter the residents' weights into the computer as
the CNAs were not allowed to enter the weights.
During an interview on 1/15/25 at 2:04 P.M., the NP said she had started providing routine coverage at the facility in October 2024 and that she had seen Resident #65 for the first time on 10/16/24, after the Resident returned from the hospital on 10/13/24. The NP said she did not have access to any of the residents' electronic health records for about one month after she began providing routine coverage at the facility and that she was dependent upon staff reports and a written communication log for any changes residents may have experienced during that time. The NP said she had not been alerted that Resident #65 had experienced weight loss. The NP said if the facility identified a significant weight change, she should have been notified in order to implement effective dietary interventions, and if necessary, testing to rule out any medical causes for the significant weight change. The NP said if she had been alerted to Resident #65 having a significant weight change, she would have ordered dietary supplementation, such as health shakes, and if weight loss continued, she would have ordered a chest x-ray and additional blood work to evaluate for malignancy. The NP said that she was not notified that the Resident experienced significant weight loss in October 2024 and that the Resident's weight was down to 90.6 lbs as of 1/1/25. The NP also said she had not yet been informed of the Dietician's recommendations to implement weekly weights and nourishment BID following the Dietician's assessment on 1/13/25. The NP said she wished the facility had notified her a couple of months ago that the Resident's weight was trending down and that the Resident had significant weight loss.

F 0692 During an interview on 1/15/25 at 3:37 P.M., the Dietician said she worked part time at the facility. The Dietician said that she did have opportunities where she observed residents eating, but that she was only in Level of Harm - Actual harm the facility approximately one time per week, so she depended on staff reports and documentation for monitoring residents for nutrition. The Dietician said the facility held a Risk Meeting weekly and that Resident Residents Affected - Few #65 was discussed weekly at that meeting. The Dietician also said Resident #65 was on her radar for weight loss. The Dietician said the facility identified Resident #65 as having had a significant weight loss on 10/1/24 and that the Resident's weight loss was discussed at the Risk Meeting on 10/3/24. The Dietician said although the Resident had a gradual weight loss over the previous year that was identified in August 2024, and a significant weight loss identified on 10/1/24, no new interventions were implemented for the Resident following the Risk Meeting held on 10/3/24. The Dietician said that she was continuing to monitor the Resident for dietary supplementation need. The Dietician said that Resident #65's meal intake percentages were not bad and that she monitored meal intake percentages based off of the meal percentage intakes that were entered into the computer. The Dietician also said the facility was good about entering meal percentage intakes. When the surveyor asked about the meal percentage monitoring when several meals were not entered into Resident #65's record, the Dietician said she did not think meal intake percentage recording had been a problem and she would have to look into it. The Dietician said that she did not see Resident #65 between 10/1/24 and 10/10/24, when the Resident was discharged to the hospital, and that she did not re-assess the Resident until 10/18/24, following the Resident's return to the facility on [DATE REDACTED]. The Dietician said that the re-assessment she completed on 10/18/24 was due to the Resident having had a change in condition relative to a hip fracture and that the change in condition assessment was not triggered due to weight loss. The Dietician said that when she re-assessed the Resident on 10/18/24, she recommended house supplements. The Dietician further said she did not enter the order into the computer until 10/24/24 for
the Resident to be provided with house supplements and that she was unsure why obtaining the order for the house supplements was delayed.
During an interview on 1/15/25 at 4:04 P.M., with Unit Manager (UM) #1 and UM #2, UM #1 said that Resident #65 was not eating well and was losing weight when he/she returned from the hospital. UM #2 said no interventions were implemented relative to the Resident's weight loss. UM #1 said that Resident #65's weight was down to 90.6 lbs on 1/1/25, the weight was discussed at the facility's weekly Risk Meeting and no re-weight was requested by the Dietician. UM #2 said she did not think the Resident's weight of 90.6 lbs was accurate and that she had requested CNAs re-weigh the Resident. UM #2 asked the surveyor if the re-weight was in the Resident's clinical record. UM #1 was observed to review the Resident's clinical record and said that the record included no information relative to a re-weigh after the weight that was obtained on 1/1/25. UM #1 also said the Dietician did not always attend the weekly Risk Meeting and that the Dietician would provide an email to the facility with recommendations for residents. UM #1 said that the Dietician sent
an update to the Risk Team for the meeting that was scheduled for 1/9/25 and the Dietician's recommendations included adding nourishment BID and weekly weight monitoring for Resident #65. UM #1 further said that the meeting scheduled for 1/9/25 did not occur and the recommendations made by the Dietician for Resident #65 had not yet been implemented. UM #1 said that the Risk Meeting did not have to occur in order for recommendations to be implemented. UM #1 also said that Resident #65 received house supplements and the amount consumed by the Resident should be monitored in the Resident's clinical record. UM #2 said she did not know why Resident #65's re-weight from 1/1/25 was not in the Resident's
record and that she was going to re-weigh the Resident.

F 0692 On 1/15/25 at 5:15 P.M., the surveyor observed UM #2 request that CNA #6 assist her to weigh Resident #65. CNA #6 assisted the Resident to his/her room and UM #2 transported the chair scale to the Resident's Level of Harm - Actual harm room for weighing. UM #2 said the Resident's weight was 101.2 lbs. UM #2 said that the Resident's current weight still indicated a significant weight loss over the last three months. UM #2 further said, the process is Residents Affected - Few broken. Let's just say that.
On 1/16/25 at 8:40 A.M., during an observation and interview, the surveyor observed Resident #65 lying in bed. There were two meal carts observed on the Unit at the time and the surveyor observed CNA #2 passing meal trays from the meal carts to residents in their rooms. CNA #2 said that she was passing meal trays to residents who ate in their rooms and that she would be assisting Resident #65 to eat. The surveyor observed UM #2 in the hallway and asked UM #2 if the surveyor could observe Resident #65's breakfast meal tray. UM #2 removed the tray from the meal cart and picked up the meal ticket which indicated special request for House supplement. The surveyor observed the Resident's breakfast tray contained a covered plate and a covered bowl that UM #2 said was fortified oatmeal. The breakfast tray did not contain a house supplement. UM #2 said that the house supplement was a health shake that was to be sent to the Unit on the Resident's meal tray from the kitchen. UM #2 said that House supplements were not stocked on the Units and it was the kitchen staffs' responsibility to send the house supplements on the meal trays. UM #2 said she needed to go to the kitchen to obtain a house supplement to give to Resident #65.
On 1/16/25 at 8:47 A.M., the surveyor observed Resident #65 holding a house supplement while sitting up in bed. The Resident took two sips of the house supplement through a straw, then held the supplement in front of him/herself.
During an interview on 1/16/25 at 8:50 A.M., CNA #2 said that she normally assisted Resident #65 to eat breakfast. CNA #2 said that it was hit or miss relative to the Resident accepting the house supplement. CNA #2 said that she found that the Resident more frequently did not accept the house supplement than accept
the house supplement at breakfast. CNA #2 also said that Resident #65 required physical assistance from staff to eat.
On 1/16/25 at 9:10 A.M., the surveyor observed Resident #65 positioned upright in bed. CNA #2 was seated next to the Resident's bed assisting the Resident to eat. The Resident was eating slowly and accepting small bites of french toast. The surveyor observed the bowl of fortified oatmeal was uncovered, and the bowl was still full.
During an interview on 1/17/25 at 7:55 A.M., the Regional Nurse said Nurses are triggered to obtain residents' weights when they view the administration records in the electronic health records. The Regional Nurse said that when the Nurse records the weights into the administration record, that record of weight does not automatically transfer into the Weights and Vitals module in PCC and the Nurse would then have to also enter the weight into the Weights and Vitals module. The Regional Nurse said that he would not expect the Nurses to have to record the weight twice because the weight was already recorded in the clinical record.
The Regional Nurse also said that the Weights Exception Report was generated by the weights entered into
the Weights and Vitals module in PCC, so if only the Weights Exception Report was being reviewed, staff would miss identifying significant weight changes if not reviewing all of the weight information in the clinical record. The Regional Nurse said that the Nurses were responsible to determine whether a weight obtained was accurate, whether a re-weigh was required, and obtain a re-weight.

The NP said she ordered the liquid protein specifically for bone healing due to the Level of Harm - Actual harm Resident having had a hip fracture. The NP said that the liquid protein could have some nutrition supplementation benefit, but that she did not order it specific for the Resident's nutrition because she did not Residents Affected - Few know the Resident had significant weight loss.

During an interview on 1/17/24 at 12:37 P.M., the Administrator said the facility had a written transfer agreement with one area hospital and that she was trying to locate a copy of the agreement. The Administrator said she would provide a copy of the written transfer agreement when she located it.
On 1/17/24 at 4:00 P.M., the Corporate Nurse provided a copy of a written transfer agreement with the area hospital previously indicated by the Administrator. The surveyor observed that the effective date of the written transfer agreement was 1/1/25. At this time, the Corporate Nurse said that the facility had been unable to locate a written transfer agreement between them and the hospital, and that the hospital was also unable to locate a written transfer agreement between them and the facility. The Corporate Nurse said that because neither facility had evidence of a written transfer agreement, one was completed on 1/17/25, after
the surveyor's inquiry, and was effective from 1/1/25.
