Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to maintain a clean and homelike environment for residents on the 2nd Floor, as evidenced by the condition of four resident wheelchairs. The facility's policy, dated 2/22/24, requires that wheelchairs be cleaned at least monthly or as needed to ensure they are clean, functional, and safe. However, during an observation on 10/09/24, between 11:13 a.m. and 11:20 a.m., it was noted that the wheelchairs of Residents R8, R14, R55, and R74 were unclean, with dust, dried debris, and dried liquids present on the frames and cushions. Specifically, Resident R8's wheelchair had dust and dried debris, Resident R14's had dried liquid and debris, Resident R55's had dust and dried debris, and Resident R74's had a dried spaghetti noodle along with other dried debris and dust.

Lack of Physician's Order for Resident's Hand Splint
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to ensure that physician's orders were accurate and reflected the care provided to a resident. Resident R8, who has a history of stroke, diabetes, and dementia, was observed wearing a left upper extremity resting hand splint. However, the clinical record for Resident R8 did not contain a physician's order for the use of this splint, despite a task dated 12/16/20 indicating its use for up to four hours twice a day. The Nursing Home Administrator confirmed the absence of a physician's order for the splint during an interview.
Failure to Maintain Respiratory Equipment for a Resident
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to maintain proper care of respiratory equipment for a resident who required respiratory services. The facility's policy, dated February 22, 2024, specified that the oxygen concentrator's inlet filter pad should be clean and in place, and the air intake filter should be rinsed and dried weekly to prevent dust accumulation. Resident R35, diagnosed with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), dementia, and high blood pressure, had a physician's order for oxygen at two liters per minute via nasal cannula and an order to clean oxygen filters every Friday on the night shift. However, observations on October 8 and 9, 2024, revealed that the oxygen concentrator's filters contained a gray dusty substance, indicating they had not been cleaned as required. A registered nurse confirmed the presence of dust on the filters, acknowledging that they should be cleaned weekly.
Failure to Follow Planned Menus
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to adhere to its planned menu for four out of six meals, as observed and reported by residents and staff. The discrepancies included serving different food items than those listed on the menu, such as substituting chicken breast for chicken thigh, white rice for rice pilaf, and chocolate chip cookies for cherry crisp. These changes were not communicated to the residents or staff in advance, leading to confusion and dissatisfaction among the residents. The facility's policy on menu substitutions requires that any changes be recorded and, if repeated, approved by a Registered Dietitian, which was not followed in these instances. Interviews with residents and staff revealed that menu changes were frequent and often unexpected, with residents expressing that meals were a surprise. The Dietary Manager admitted to some changes being made without prior approval and acknowledged that the facility does not use chicken thighs due to their fat content, although the menus had not been updated to reflect this change. The lack of communication and adherence to the planned menu was confirmed by the Dietary Manager and other staff members, indicating a systemic issue in the facility's dietary services.
