Findings include:

According to the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) March 19, 2024, article titled Healthcare-Associated Infections (HAIs), the cleaning of patient care areas includes, Potential for exposure to pathogens: High touch surfaces (e.g., bed rails) require more frequent and rigorous environmental cleaning than low-touch surfaces (e.g., walls).

The CDC article titled Implementation of Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) Use in Nursing Homes to Prevent Spread of Multidrug-resistant Organisms (MDROs) dated 4/2/24, indicated MDRO transmission in skilled nursing facilities was common and contributed to substantial resident morbidity. EBP is an infection control intervention to reduce transmission of MDROs by using gowns and gloves during high contact resident care activities that provide opportunities for transfer of MDROs to staff hands and clothing that lead to indirect transfer of MDROs from resident to resident. The article indicated EBP should be implemented (when contact precautions did not apply) for residents who are high risk for acquiring infections with wounds or indwelling medical devices (central lines, urinary catheter, feeding tube, and ventilator dependent) regardless of MDRO colonization status.

Resident R39's quarterly Minimum Data Set (MDS) dated [DATE REDACTED], identified Resident R39 with severe cognitive impairment, did not reject care, had an indwelling catheter (tube and bag to drain urine from the bladder), diagnoses of kidney disease, neurogenic bladder (nerve damage to bladder), obstructive uropathy (blockage of urine flow) , dementia, Parkinson's disease, malnutrition, pneumonia, and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (damaged lungs that limit airflow in and out of lungs). In addition, Resident R39 was documented as at risk for pressure ulcers, had one stage two pressure ulcer acquired at the facility, had two stage 3 pressure ulcers that were present upon admission/entry or reentry to facility, utilized pressure reducing device for chair and bed, and received pressure ulcer/injury care.

On 1/6/25 at 2:04 p.m., Resident R108's room was observed from the public hallway with her room door being left wide open. Resident R108 was lying in bed with a mobile cart placed adjacent to the room doorway in the hallway at a ninety-degree angle, and two staff members were inside the room dressed in disposable gowns and tending to Resident R108's leg. The two staff members were completing a dressing change to Resident R108's leg and each time the one staff member moved to the side, red-colored tissue and associated bodily drainage was exposed on Resident R108's leg. After a few minutes of observation, Resident R108 noticed the surveyor standing in the hallway watching

the wound care and asked aloud, What's he doing out there? The two staff members turned and looked at

the surveyor in the hallway when one staff responded, Maybe looking for someone, I don't know. However, no attempt to close the doorway was offered or made at this time and Resident R108 continued to make several looks at the surveyor who remained in the public hallway.

At 2:08 p.m., the director of nursing (DON) approached the surveyor and Resident R108's room from down the hall. DON observed Resident R108's open doorway along with the care inside, and was questioned if they knew why the door would be left open for such. DON responded, No, I don't, and identified the one staff member in the room as registered nurse manager (RN)-D. DON stated Resident R108 could be super particular and she would follow-up. DON then approached Resident R108's room and asked if the door could be closed when RN-D aloud responded, She wants it open. Resident R108 then voiced aloud, I have nothing showing. DON returned to the surveyor and expressed she would review the care plan to ensure the door being open was outlined.

On 1/6/25 at 2:53 p.m., Resident R108 was interviewed in her room. Resident R108's room had two ceiling-mounted tracks installed for privacy curtain(s), however, no physical curtains were installed on these tracks. Resident R108 verified

she wanted the doorway left open due to being very claustrophobic, and voiced if anyone saw inside while care was happening, such as the observed wound care, then such was their problem and not mine. Resident R108 stated they resided in a medical care center and people should expect to see things which may be unsightly adding, That's reality. However, Resident R108 stated nobody from the care center had asked or offered other options to her prior (i.e., turning mobile cart to cover door entrance, portable curtains) but, again, reiterated aloud it wasn't her concern adding, No, because I don't think it's an issue.

Resident R108's medical record was reviewed and lacked evidence what, if any, additional options had been offered or attempted to provide as much privacy as able for Resident R108 and others (i.e., passerby's) during the provision of care with exposed wound tissue and potential bodily fluid (i.e., blood).

On 1/7/25 at 12:23 p.m., social services designee (SSD)-B and RN-D were interviewed. RN-D verified they were providing care which was visible from the hallway and felt nothing was flowing [i.e., blood] but acknowledged the wound tissue would be visible adding, [The] red tissue would have been very visible. SSD-B stated Resident R108's room was somewhat isolated down towards the end of the hallway, however, acknowledged they had not addressed what, if any, options were available to ensure Resident R108's privacy and others' was maintained adding, We have not thought of that. SSD-B stated if Resident R108's room had been located

in a more heavy traffic area, then it would have been addressed they felt. RN-D verified the care center had, at least at one time, some portable privacy screens which would allow the door to be kept open. RN-D explained the interdisciplinary team (IDT) had discussed using one of them prior, however, then questioned how it would be stored or cleaned. RN-D stated turning the mobile cart (used for wound supplies) to cover

the door would be good adding aloud, I think that would be a very easy option. RN-D verified Resident R108 did, at times, allow her doorway to be closed partially, too, with cares prior. RN-D and SSD-B both verified evidence of what, if any, options had been offered or presented to Resident R108 for privacy with wound care should have been documented in the medical record. Further, RN-D stated it was important to ensure privacy was maintained adding aloud, It's a dignity issue for all involved.

Resident R50

The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid (CMS) Long-Term Care Facility Resident Assessment Instrument 3. 0 User's Manual, dated 10/2023, identified the RAI process (i.e., MDS) was completed to help evaluate resident' strengths and areas for care-planning. The manual listed all types of assessments to be completed along with corresponding timeframe's for them via a graph labeled, RAI OBRA-required Assessment Summary. This directed a quarterly MDS should be completed (i.e., signed) within, ARD + 14 calendar days.

Resident R50's significant change MDS, dated [DATE REDACTED], identified Resident R50 had severe cognitive impairment, demonstrated hallucinations, and was on hospice.

Resident R50's electronic medical record listed a section labeled, MDS, which listed every completed MDS to date for Resident R50. A subsequent quarterly MDS, with an assessment reference date (ARD) 12/24/24, was listed but categorized as, In Progress. The MDS was not completed with multiple sections being red-colored and having little or no data entered and being labeled, In Progress. The uncompleted sections included, Hearing, Speech and Vision, and, Behavior, and, Bladder and Bowel, among several others.

Resident R50's medical record was reviewed and lacked evidence why the MDS had not been completed timely per

the RAI manual (due 1/7/25).

When interviewed on 1/8/25 at 1:07 p.m., registered nurse (RN)-F verified they help complete the MDS for

the campus. RN-F verified Resident R50's quarterly MDS was not finished and should have been within 14 days of the ARD adding, We haven't gotten to it yet. RN-F stated the corresponding assessments for the sections (i.e., pain assessments, bladder assessments) didn't seem to be finished in the record, either, which would likely cause many sections on the MDS to be dashed as 'not assessed' adding aloud, It will unfortunately.

Resident R222's progress note, dated 12/11/24, identified Resident R222 was advanced to weight-bearing as tolerated (WBAT) with use of the PRAFO boot; and on 12/20 could be WBAT without it applied.

Resident R222's activity attendance was requested. A provided Follow Up Question Report, printed 1/7/25, identified Resident R222's recorded activities, level of participation and the corresponding date of each. This record identified Resident R222 attended or had provided only four activities since admission to the care center in November 2024.

These included:

On 12/4/24, a chaplain visit was recorded with Resident R222 having active participation.

On 12/22/24, a music group was recorded with Resident R222 having active participation.

On 12/24/24, a party or special event along with friend/family visits were recorded with Resident R222 having active participation.

Resident R222's medical record was reviewed and lacked any evidence Resident R222 had been comprehensively reassessed to determine what, if any, activities needs were needed to promote quality of life despite Resident R222 rarely attending services and having healed with no longer being non-weight bearing. There was no evidence what, if any, in-room activities were offered or provided despite Resident R222 expressing interest in such when assessed upon admission.

On 1/8/25 at 12:32 p.m., the therapeutic recreation coordinator (TRC) and chaplain (CH) were interviewed. TRC explained they don't typically program activities on the TCU as, from past experience, had not ever seen enough attendance to justify it. As a result, upon admission they meet with TCU residents' and explain

they are welcome to attend the activities on the other floors for the LTC residents. TRC stated if someone expressed wanting to be involved, then they'd likely be given an in-room calendar. CH explained they round

on the unit and do a scheduled program every other week, however, both CH and TRC verified they don't round on the units daily to invite residents on the TCU to activities. TRC stated any in-room activities would be offered on the initial evaluation adding if offered and declined, then such would also be indicated on the evaluation. When questioned on what, if any, re-evaluation process existed as people on the TCU are likely to have evolving health needs (i.e., get better, more energy), TRC explained the re-admission was not an automatic and they wouldn't typically re-visit it until the MDS cycle (i.e., quarterly) came due.

A facility' activities programming policy was requested, however, none was received.
