This Rule is not met as evidenced by: Based on observation, interview and record review, it was determined the facility failed to ensure service plans were reflective of residents' current care needs and provided clear directions to staff regarding the delivery of services for 2 of 4 sampled residents (#s 2 and 4) whose service plans were reviewed. Findings include, but are not limited to: 1. Resident 4 was admitted to the facility in 04/2025 with diagnoses including diastolic congestive heart failure, tremors and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). During the acuity interview on 06/16/26, Resident 4 was identified as receiving hospice services at the time of admission. Observations were made of the resident's care on 06/17/26 and 06/18/26. Interviews with the resident, hospice providers and facility staff were conducted, and the service plan, dated 05/06/26, was reviewed. Resident 4's service plan was not reflective of the resident's current needs and lacked clear instructions to staff in the following areas: * Number of staff needed to assist with activities of daily living; * Instructions on signs and symptoms of depression and anxiety to report while on anti-depressant therapy; * Instructions for staff as to how the side rails were to be used, monitored for safety, and to whom to report any malfunctions; * Oxygen equipment precautions, instructions for proper maintenance, including when to add distilled water, how to charge a portable oxygen tank, and how to monitor for safety; * Instructions on what types of skin impairments to report and to whom; and * Incorrect reference to the resident as using a bilevel positive airway pressure (BiPAP) ventilation device or continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) therapy device. Staff 9 (Care Partner) was interviewed on 06/17/26 at 2:19 pm and stated Resident 4 spent most of the time in bed and “when [Resident 4]’s hand tremors get worse, [s/he] needs help with everything around the room.” Staff 9 added, “I always check side rails while changing bedding because they [side rails] get loose often.” The need to ensure service plans reflected residents' current needs and provided clear instructions to staff regarding the delivery of services was discussed with Staff 1 (ED) and Staff 4 (Regional Director of Operations) on 06/18/26 at 1:57 pm. They acknowledged the findings. 2. Resident 2 was admitted to the facility in 05/2025 with diagnoses including chronic kidney disease and hypertension. The resident’s 03/08/26 to 06/16/26 clinical record was reviewed, interviews with staff and resident were conducted, and observations were made. The service plan, dated 05/27/26, was not reflective of the resident’s current care needs or lacked clear instructions to staff in the following areas: * Instructions regarding how the side rails were to be used, monitored for safety, and to whom to report any malfunctions; * Instructions regarding level of assistance needed for management of oxygen; * Incorrect reference to the resident as using a bilevel positive airway pressure (BiPAP) ventilation device or continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) therapy device; * Instructions regarding bowel movements including supplies needed, bowel status and modifications of the briefs; * Preferences regarding where to eat meals; * Skin conditions including what to apply following brief changes; * Frequency of providing safety checks; * Ability to reposition in bed; * PRN psychotropic medication including reason for use and what to do when exhibiting; * Frequency of taking weight and which wheelchair to use; and * Diabetic status. During an observation on 06/16/26 at 1:45 pm, Resident 2 had two quarter length side rails on the hospital bed, preferred the side straps of briefs removed prior to use, and relied on staff to assist with his/her oxygen needs. Resident 2 indicated s/he used a BiPAP, not CPAP, machine at night and was not diabetic. During an interview on 06/18/26 at 12:55 pm, Staff 6 (Care Partner) indicated Resident 2 was continent of his/her bowels, was unsure if the resident had a PRN medication for anxiety or which wheelchair the resident used to obtain his/her weight and had two types of ointment to apply following a brief change and believed the “thicker one” was applied at night. The need to ensure residents’ service plans were reflective of their needs and provided clear direction to staff was reviewed with Staff 1 (ED) and Staff 4 (Regional Director of Operations) on 06/18/26 at 2:30 pm. They acknowledged the findings.

This Rule is not met as evidenced by: Based on interview and record review, it was determined the facility failed to ensure medication and treatment orders were carried out as prescribed, and written, signed physician or other legally recognized practitioner orders were documented in the resident's facility record for all medications and treatments the facility was responsible for administering for 2 of 4 sampled residents (#2 and 4) whose orders were reviewed. Findings include, but are not limited to: 1. Resident 2 was admitted to the facility in 05/2025 with diagnoses including chronic kidney disease and hypertension. The resident's 03/08/26 to 06/16/26 clinical record and 06/01/26 through 06/16/26 MAR were reviewed and noted the following: a. On 06/04/26 Novolog 100 U/ml insulin sliding scale for hyperglycemia was ordered for administration before each meal three times daily based on Resident 2's blood glucose level while taking prednisone. Based on review of the MAR, an incorrect dose of insulin was administered on two occasions. Additionally, there was no documented evidence how many units of insulin had been administered based on the resident’s blood glucose level on three occasions. The administration of incorrect dose had no negative outcome to Resident 2. b. A physician’s order on 05/14/26 instructed staff to obtain weights twice weekly on Tuesday and Friday and notify the PCP for a weight gain of five pounds or more. Based on review of the MAR, the resident was not weighed on 06/04/26, 06/09/26 and 06/12/26. c. The following orders were not transcribed to the 06/01/26 through 06/16/26 MAR: * Pantoprazole (for acid reflux) 40 mg daily; and * Glucose (for low blood sugar) 15 grams as needed for blood sugar less than 70. The need to ensure all written, signed orders from a legally recognized practitioner were carried out as prescribed was discussed Staff 1 (ED) and Staff 4 (Regional Director of Operations) on 06/18/26 at 2:30 pm. They acknowledged the findings. 2. Resident 4 was admitted to the facility in 04/2025 with diagnoses including diastolic congestive heart failure, tremors and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). During the acuity interview on 06/16/26, Resident 4 was identified receiving hospice services at the time of admission. Resident 4's MARs from 06/01/26 through 06/16/26 were reviewed. Interviews with facility staff were conducted. During the review of the resident’s chart on 06/16/26 at approximately 2:30 pm, it was noted there was no documented evidence the facility had written, signed physician or other legally recognized practitioner orders documented in the resident's facility record for the medications and treatments that the facility was responsible to administer. Signed physician orders dated 06/16/26 were received by the survey team on 06/17/26 at 11:03 am. During an interview on 06/17/26 at 9:45 am, Witness 1 (Hospice RN) confirmed the facility asked for a copy of the hospice orders on 06/16/26 and they were faxed as requested. The need to ensure written, signed or other legally recognized practitioner orders were documented in the resident’s facility record for all medications and treatments that the facility was responsible to administer was reviewed with Staff 1 (ED) and Staff 4 (Regional Director of Operations) on 06/18/26 at 1:57 pm. They acknowledged the findings.
1. The actions that will be taken to correct the rule are: a) Resident #2's physician orders and medication records were immediately audited. All medications and treatments were verified to accurately reflect current physician orders. b) Resident #4's physician orders were immediately obtained. A facility-wide audit of active physician orders was completed to ensure all medications and treatments have corresponding signed practitioner orders within the resident record. 2. The system will be corrected so that the violation will not occur by: a) The community implemented a Physician Order Reconciliation Process requiring all new physician orders to be reviewed for completeness, entered into the electronic record, and verified against the MAR/TAR prior to implementation by the Med Tech's, Care Coordinator and RN. 3. The area needing correction will be evaluated by the Licensed Nurse weekly. Any areas out of compliance will be addressed immediately. 4. The Administrator and Licensed Nurse will be responsible to ensure that corrections are completed and monitored.
