on [DATE REDACTED]. Relevant diagnoses included Acute Respiratory Failure (lack of oxygen) and Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (lung disease). Record review of Resident #11's Quarterly MDS assessment, dated 9/02/25, reflected he had a BIMS score of 12 (moderate cognitive impairment). For ADL care, it reflected

the resident required total assistance and it reflected an active diagnosis of cardiorespiratory conditions.

She stated she did not know when the last time he had used the device. She stated when the breathing device was not in use, the breathing mask should be stored in a plastic bag to avoid an infection. She stated she would discard the mask and get the resident a new one. In an interview on 09/11/25 at 12:59 PM with ADON L, she stated Resident #11 did have a device for breathing treatments on an as needed basis. She was advised of Resident #11 not having his mask bagged and she stated that the mask should be removed or bagged when not in use to avoid an infection. In an interview on 09/11/25 at 4:12 PM, the DON stated he had been at the facility for seven months. He was advised of Resident #11 being observed with an oxygen mask, unbagged while not in use.

He stated he expected staff to remove the mask and then replace with a new one if needed or the mask should be bagged to avoid the resident getting an infection.
