(Resident # 53)<BR/>The facility failed to complete a Significant Change MDS for Resident #53 within 14 days after the resident was admitted to hospice services. <BR/>This failure could place residents who experienced a significant change in their condition requiring an MDS assessment at risk of not receiving needed services.<BR/>Findings Included:<BR/>Record review of a face sheet dated 09/24/24 indicated Resident #53 was a [AGE] year-old female admitted on [DATE]. Her diagnoses included respiratory failure (a serious condition that makes it difficult to breathe on your own), chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (a lung disease that blocks airflow making it difficult to breathe), major depressive disorder (mental health disorder characterized by persistently depressed mood or loss of interest in activities, causing significant impairment in daily life), dementia (loss of cognitive functioning), anxiety disorder (persistent and excessive worry that interferes with daily activities), and hypertension (a condition in which the force of the blood against the artery walls is too high). They also indicated Resident #53's referral to hospice on 08/19/24.<BR/>Record review of a physician telephone order dated 08/19/24 indicated Resident #53 was admitted on hospice services.<BR/>Record review of the EMR from 08/19/24 through 09/24/24 indicated Resident #53 did not have a significant change MDS for admission to hospice within the required 14-day time frame.<BR/>Record review of the current care plan reviewed on 09/24/24 indicated Resident #53 required hospice as evidenced by terminal illness of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.<BR/>During an observation and interview on 09/23/24 at 09:52 a.m. Resident #53 was in bed finishing her breakfast.

She said she had not done a significant change MDS for the admission to hospice. She said she was supposed to do a significant change MDS within 14 days after the admission to hospice. <BR/>During an interview on 09/24/24 at 12:18 p.m., the DON and the Corporate Nurse said they did not know when a significant change MDS was to be done after admission to hospice. They said they thought the Corporate MDS Nurse was responsible for reviewing if a MDS was due. <BR/>During an interview on 09/25/24 at 09:18 a.m., the DON said for MDS accuracy and submissions they followed the RAI guidelines.<BR/>Record review of the MDS RAI manual dated October 2023 indicated 03. Significant Change in Status Assessment (SCSA) (A0310A = 04): .Assessment Management Requirements and Tips for Significant Change in Status Assessments: An SCSA is required to be performed when a terminally ill resident enrolls in a hospice program (Medicare-certified or State-licensed hospice provider) or changes hospice providers and remains a resident at the nursing home. The ARD must be within 14 days from the effective date of the hospice election (which can be the same or later than the date of the hospice election statement, but not earlier than). An SCSA must be performed regardless of whether an assessment was recently conducted on the resident. This is to ensure a coordinated plan of care between the hospice and nursing home is in place. A Medicare-certified hospice must conduct an assessment at the initiation of its services. This is an appropriate time for the nursing home to evaluate the MDS information to determine if it reflects the current condition of the resident, since the nursing home remains responsible for providing necessary care and services to assist the resident in achieving their highest practicable well-being at whatever stage of the disease process the resident is experiencing

PASARR screening for Mental disorders or Intellectual Disabilities

**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on interview, and record review, the facility failed to ensure individuals identified with MD or ID are evaluated for 3 of 6 residents reviewed for PASRR. (Residents # 55, #73 and #89) <BR/>The facility did not have an accurate PASRR level 1 screening for Residents #55, #73 and #89 who identified with having a mental health diagnosis therefore they had no further evaluation. <BR/>This failure could place residents who have a diagnosis of mental disorder or intellectual disability at risk for a diminished quality of life and not receiving necessary care and services in accordance with individually assessed needs. <BR/>Findings included: <BR/>1. Record review of a face sheet indicated Resident #55 admitted [DATE], was a [AGE] year-old male, with diagnoses of PTSD (post-traumatic stress disorder -a disorder in which a person has difficulty recovering after experiencing or witnessing a terrifying event with symptoms including flashbacks, nightmares and severe anxiety), anxiety (intense, excessive, and persistent worry and fear about everyday situations) and depression (a common and serious medical illness that negatively affects how you think and act.). <BR/>Record review of PASRR level 1 screening completed by the transferring facility dated 03/27/23 indicated Resident #55 was negative for mental illness, intellectual disability, and developmental disability. No PASRR Level II (PE) Screening or a form 1012 (Mental Illness/Dementia Resident Review) was found in the clinical record. <BR/>Record review of a care plan initiated 03/29/23 indicated Resident #55 was currently taking psychotropic medication for depression and anxiety and required monitoring for side effects, behaviors and mood problems. <BR/>Record review of a quarterly MDS dated [DATE] indicated Resident #55 had a BIMS score of 10 indicating he had moderately impaired cognition, had diagnoses of PTSD, depression and anxiety and received medication for anxiety and depression 7 of 7 days. <BR/>Record Review of physician orders dated July 2023 indicated Resident #55 had a diagnosis of PTSD. The orders indicated Resident #55 was prescribed duloxetine (an antidepressant medication) 20 mg daily for depression with a start date of 3/28/23, trazadone (an antidepressant medication)100 mg at bedtime for depression with a start dated of 04/04/23 and alprazolam (an antianxiety medication) 0.5 mg every 6 hours as needed for anxiety with a start date of 06/13/23. <BR/>2. Record review of a face sheet indicated Resident #73 admitted [DATE], was an 83- year-old male, had a diagnosis of bipolar disorder (a mental illness that causes unusual shifts in a person's mood, energy, activity levels and concentration and makes it difficult to carry out day-to-day task) <BR/>Record review of PASRR level 1 (PL1) screening completed by the transferring facility dated 05/24/23 indicated Resident #73 was negative for mental illness, intellectual disability, and developmental disability. No PASRR Level II (PE) Screening or a form 1012 (Mental Illness/Dementia Resident Review) was found in the clinical record. <BR/>Record review of an annual MDS dated [DATE] indicated Resident #73 was moderately impaired of cognition, was negative for PASRR condition, had a diagnosis of bipolar disorder and received an antipsychotic medication 7 of 7 days. <BR/>Record review of a care plan initiated 05/30/23 indicated Resident #73 was moderately impaired of cognition and currently taking psychotropic medication. <BR/>Record Review of physician orders dated July 2023 indicated Resident #73 was prescribed divalproex 125 mg every 12 hours for dipolar disorder with a start date of 07/18/23 and quetiapine 25 mg every day at bedtime for bipolar disorder with a start date of 07/18/23. <BR/>3. Record review of a face sheet dated 07/25/23 indicated Resident #89 was a [AGE] year-old male admitted on [DATE]. He had diagnoses including post-traumatic stress disorder (disorder in which a person has difficulty recovering after experiencing or witnessing a terrifying event), generalized anxiety disorder (persistent and excessive worry that interferes with daily activities), and major depression disorder (mental health disorder characterized by persistently depressed mood or loss of interest in activities, causing significant impairment in daily life). <BR/>During an interview on 07/26/23 at 10:35 a.m., the DON indicated Resident #89 should have had a positive PL1 due to diagnosis of PTSD. She said he was supposed to be exempted hospital admission and stay less than 30 days but the PL1 was not marked for this. <BR/>Record review of a PL1 completed by a transferring facility dated 06/26/23 indicated there was no evidence or indicator Resident #89 had a mental illness diagnosis. The section for Exempted Hospital Discharge which would indicate a resident to stay at a facility for less than 30 days was left blank. <BR/>Record review of the admission MDS dated [DATE] indicated Resident #89 had moderately impaired cognition with a BIMs score of 08 out of 15; he had no behaviors; he had diagnoses of anxiety disorder, depression, and PTSD; and he received antianxiety and antidepressant medications for 7days of the 7 days look back period. <BR/>During an interview on 07/25/23 at 11:13 a.m., the DON said the MDS nurse was responsible for the PASRR process and ensuring all PL1s were completed correctly. She said the MDS nurse quit 2 weeks ago without notice. The DON said herself and the SW were the back up to double check PL1s were completed correctly. She said Resident #55 and 73's PL1s were just missed. She said the PL1 for both Resident #55 and Resident #73 should have been should have been positive. The DON said the risk of a PL1 completed incorrectly was the resident may miss out on deserved services. <BR/>During an interview on 07/26/23 at 10:21 a.m., the SW said he and the DON were responsible for completing the PL1s and putting the PL1 from the admitting facility into the computer system since they no longer had an MDS nurse. He said when entering the PL1 he referred to the resident's diagnoses to ensure the PL1 was correct. The SW said Resident #55's and #73's PL1 were put in the system by the last MDS nurse and she just missed it. He said the PL1s were negative and should have been positive. The SW said he was unaware PTSD was a PASRR potential diagnosis. The SW said the risk of a PL1 completed incorrectly was the resident could miss out on services. <BR/>During an interview on 07/26/23 11:30 a.m., the administrator said her <BR/>expectation was PASRR forms to be completed correctly and timely. She said Resident #55 and #73's PL1s were just missed. The administrator said the MDS nurse was responsible for PASRR and PL1s to be completed correctly but the MDS nurse recently quit, and the DON and SW were the back up. She said the risk of a PL1 not being completed correctly was a resident could miss deserved services. <BR/>Record review of an undated facility policy, titled Nursing Facility Responsibilities Related to PASRR, indicated, .PASRR is required of each state's Medicaid program to ensure that those with Mental illness (I) / Intellectual or Developmental Disability (IDD) are care for properly. CRC gathers information for PL1 for ALL patients and gives to PCC (patient care coordinator) prior to patient admission. PCC - submits PL1 and becomes the gate keeper of all things {PASSR}. <BR/>

He required minimal assistance of one staff member for transfer and grooming. <BR/>Record review of the care plan with print date of 07/25/23 indicated Resident #55 was at risk for additional falls and risk for drowsiness when he received pain medications. The care plans did not address the resident using pruning shears outside. <BR/>During a confidential interview, the person said Resident #55 had pruning shears and he pruned the bushes outside. <BR/>During an interview on 07/25/23 at 945 a.m., Resident #55 was in his room and reached into his walker and pulled out the pruning shears. The shears were approximately 2-inch curved blade and approximately 6-inch handle. Resident #55 said he got them awhile back and could not remember the day or the month. He said he spoke with the maintenance supervisor about storing them in his office when he was not pruning the bushes, but nothing was decided. Resident #55 said he had just been keeping the shears in his walker when he was not using them. He denied any staff asked him to turn in the shears. He said he just goes outside and prunes the bushes unsupervised. <BR/>During an interview 07/25/23 at 9:55 a.m., the DON said she was not aware that a resident had pruning shears. The DON said we should have care planned and provided outside gardening activity with supervision for Resident #55. <BR/>During an interview on 07/25/23 at 9:57 a.m., the Maintenance Director denied talking to any resident about using pruning shears. He said we were responsible for pruning bushes and the residents could get hurt if not supervised. <BR/>During an interview 07/25/23 at 10:00 a.m., the administrator said she was unaware Resident #55 had pruning shears and did not know he was keeping them in his room. She said tools should be kept secure and if it was an activity of gardening, it would need to be care planned and supervised. She said the facility did not have a policy for pruning shears.

PASARR screening for Mental disorders or Intellectual Disabilities

**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on interview, and record review, the facility failed to ensure individuals identified with MD or ID are evaluated for 3 of 6 residents reviewed for PASRR. (Residents # 55, #73 and #89) <BR/>The facility did not have an accurate PASRR level 1 screening for Residents #55, #73 and #89 who identified with having a mental health diagnosis therefore they had no further evaluation. <BR/>This failure could place residents who have a diagnosis of mental disorder or intellectual disability at risk for a diminished quality of life and not receiving necessary care and services in accordance with individually assessed needs. <BR/>Findings included: <BR/>1. Record review of a face sheet indicated Resident #55 admitted [DATE], was a [AGE] year-old male, with diagnoses of PTSD (post-traumatic stress disorder -a disorder in which a person has difficulty recovering after experiencing or witnessing a terrifying event with symptoms including flashbacks, nightmares and severe anxiety), anxiety (intense, excessive, and persistent worry and fear about everyday situations) and depression (a common and serious medical illness that negatively affects how you think and act.). <BR/>Record review of PASRR level 1 screening completed by the transferring facility dated 03/27/23 indicated Resident #55 was negative for mental illness, intellectual disability, and developmental disability. No PASRR Level II (PE) Screening or a form 1012 (Mental Illness/Dementia Resident Review) was found in the clinical record. <BR/>Record review of a care plan initiated 03/29/23 indicated Resident #55 was currently taking psychotropic medication for depression and anxiety and required monitoring for side effects, behaviors and mood problems. <BR/>Record review of a quarterly MDS dated [DATE] indicated Resident #55 had a BIMS score of 10 indicating he had moderately impaired cognition, had diagnoses of PTSD, depression and anxiety and received medication for anxiety and depression 7 of 7 days. <BR/>Record Review of physician orders dated July 2023 indicated Resident #55 had a diagnosis of PTSD. The orders indicated Resident #55 was prescribed duloxetine (an antidepressant medication) 20 mg daily for depression with a start date of 3/28/23, trazadone (an antidepressant medication)100 mg at bedtime for depression with a start dated of 04/04/23 and alprazolam (an antianxiety medication) 0.5 mg every 6 hours as needed for anxiety with a start date of 06/13/23. <BR/>2. Record review of a face sheet indicated Resident #73 admitted [DATE], was an 83- year-old male, had a diagnosis of bipolar disorder (a mental illness that causes unusual shifts in a person's mood, energy, activity levels and concentration and makes it difficult to carry out day-to-day task) <BR/>Record review of PASRR level 1 (PL1) screening completed by the transferring facility dated 05/24/23 indicated Resident #73 was negative for mental illness, intellectual disability, and developmental disability. No PASRR Level II (PE) Screening or a form 1012 (Mental Illness/Dementia Resident Review) was found in the clinical record. <BR/>Record review of an annual MDS dated [DATE] indicated Resident #73 was moderately impaired of cognition, was negative for PASRR condition, had a diagnosis of bipolar disorder and received an antipsychotic medication 7 of 7 days. <BR/>Record review of a care plan initiated 05/30/23 indicated Resident #73 was moderately impaired of cognition and currently taking psychotropic medication. <BR/>Record Review of physician orders dated July 2023 indicated Resident #73 was prescribed divalproex 125 mg every 12 hours for dipolar disorder with a start date of 07/18/23 and quetiapine 25 mg every day at bedtime for bipolar disorder with a start date of 07/18/23. <BR/>3. Record review of a face sheet dated 07/25/23 indicated Resident #89 was a [AGE] year-old male admitted on [DATE]. He had diagnoses including post-traumatic stress disorder (disorder in which a person has difficulty recovering after experiencing or witnessing a terrifying event), generalized anxiety disorder (persistent and excessive worry that interferes with daily activities), and major depression disorder (mental health disorder characterized by persistently depressed mood or loss of interest in activities, causing significant impairment in daily life). <BR/>During an interview on 07/26/23 at 10:35 a.m., the DON indicated Resident #89 should have had a positive PL1 due to diagnosis of PTSD. She said he was supposed to be exempted hospital admission and stay less than 30 days but the PL1 was not marked for this. <BR/>Record review of a PL1 completed by a transferring facility dated 06/26/23 indicated there was no evidence or indicator Resident #89 had a mental illness diagnosis. The section for Exempted Hospital Discharge which would indicate a resident to stay at a facility for less than 30 days was left blank. <BR/>Record review of the admission MDS dated [DATE] indicated Resident #89 had moderately impaired cognition with a BIMs score of 08 out of 15; he had no behaviors; he had diagnoses of anxiety disorder, depression, and PTSD; and he received antianxiety and antidepressant medications for 7days of the 7 days look back period. <BR/>During an interview on 07/25/23 at 11:13 a.m., the DON said the MDS nurse was responsible for the PASRR process and ensuring all PL1s were completed correctly. She said the MDS nurse quit 2 weeks ago without notice. The DON said herself and the SW were the back up to double check PL1s were completed correctly. She said Resident #55 and 73's PL1s were just missed. She said the PL1 for both Resident #55 and Resident #73 should have been should have been positive. The DON said the risk of a PL1 completed incorrectly was the resident may miss out on deserved services. <BR/>During an interview on 07/26/23 at 10:21 a.m., the SW said he and the DON were responsible for completing the PL1s and putting the PL1 from the admitting facility into the computer system since they no longer had an MDS nurse. He said when entering the PL1 he referred to the resident's diagnoses to ensure the PL1 was correct. The SW said Resident #55's and #73's PL1 were put in the system by the last MDS nurse and she just missed it. He said the PL1s were negative and should have been positive. The SW said he was unaware PTSD was a PASRR potential diagnosis. The SW said the risk of a PL1 completed incorrectly was the resident could miss out on services. <BR/>During an interview on 07/26/23 11:30 a.m., the administrator said her <BR/>expectation was PASRR forms to be completed correctly and timely. She said Resident #55 and #73's PL1s were just missed. The administrator said the MDS nurse was responsible for PASRR and PL1s to be completed correctly but the MDS nurse recently quit, and the DON and SW were the back up. She said the risk of a PL1 not being completed correctly was a resident could miss deserved services. <BR/>Record review of an undated facility policy, titled Nursing Facility Responsibilities Related to PASRR, indicated, .PASRR is required of each state's Medicaid program to ensure that those with Mental illness (I) / Intellectual or Developmental Disability (IDD) are care for properly. CRC gathers information for PL1 for ALL patients and gives to PCC (patient care coordinator) prior to patient admission. PCC - submits PL1 and becomes the gate keeper of all things {PASSR}. <BR/>

Provide safe and appropriate respiratory care for a resident when needed.

**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on observation, interview and record review, the facility failed to ensure that a resident who needed respiratory care was provided such care, consistent with professional standards of practice and the comprehensive person-centered care plan for 2 of 23 residents reviewed for oxygen therapy. (Resident #38 and Resident #71) <BR/> The facility did not obtain orders for Resident #38's oxygen. The resident received oxygen via nasal cannula connected to a portable oxygen concentrator. <BR/>The facility did not ensure humidifier bottles contained liquids for Resident #s 38 and 71. The humidifier bottles for each concentrator were empty. <BR/>This failure could place the residents at risk of not receiving the care and services to maintain their highest practicable physical, mental, and psychosocial well-being. <BR/>Findings included: <BR/>1. Record review of the physician orders dated July 2023 indicated Resident #38, admitted [DATE], was [AGE] years old with diagnoses of cerebral palsy (a congenital disorder of movement, muscle tone, or posture which can contribute to lung disease). <BR/>There was no documentation to indicate the resident had oxygen ordered. <BR/>Record review of the most recent quarterly MDS dated [DATE] indicated Resident #38 was cognitively intact, had diagnoses of cerebral palsy. The assessment did not indicate the resident received oxygen. <BR/>Record review of a care plan updated 10/14/20 through current date indicated Resident #38 was unable to maintain adequate oxygen saturation levels. Beginning 07/26/23, interventions were initiated to include oxygen use for Resident #38. <BR/>During observation and interviews on 07/24/23 at 9:03 a.m., Resident #38 was lying in bed watching television.
