In the case of incidents of abuse, suspected abuse, or injury of unknown cause, policies and procedures must follow the requirements outlined below. In the case of incidents that are not abuse or injuries of unknown cause where abuse has been ruled out, the facility must have policies and procedures in place to respond appropriately, which may include such things as re-assessment, monitoring, or medication review. (2) ABUSE REPORTING. Abuse is prohibited. The facility employees, agents and licensee must not permit, aid, or engage in abuse of residents who are under their care. (a) STAFF REPORTING. All facility employees are required to immediately report abuse and suspected abuse to the local SPD office, or the local AAA, the facility administrator, or to the facility administrator's designee. (b) FACILITY REPORTING. The facility administrator, or designee, must immediately notify the local SPD office, or the local AAA, of any incident of abuse or suspected abuse, including events overheard or witnessed by observation. (c) LAW ENFORCEMENT AGENCY. The local law enforcement agency must be called first when the suspected abuse is believed to be a crime (e.g., rape, murder, assault, burglary, kidnapping, theft of controlled substances, etc.). (d) INJURY OF UNKNOWN CAUSE. Physical injury of unknown cause must be reported to the local SPD office, or the local AAA, as suspected abuse, unless an immediate facility investigation reasonably concludes and documents that the physical injury is not the result of abuse. (3) FACILITY INVESTIGATION. In addition to immediately reporting abuse or suspected abuse to SPD, AAA, or the law enforcement agency, the facility must promptly investigate all reports of abuse and suspected abuse and take measures necessary to protect residents and prevent the reoccurrence of abuse. Investigation of suspected abuse must document: (a) Time, date, place and individuals present; (b) Description of the event as reported; (c) Response of staff at the time of the event; (d) Follow-up action; and (e) Administrator's review. This Rule is not met as evidenced by: Based on observation, interview, and record review, it was determined the facility failed to ensure allegations of abuse were promptly investigated to rule out abuse and reported to the local SPD office when required, for 1 of 1 sampled resident (#4). Findings include, but are not limited to: Resident 4 was admitted to the facility in 03/2024 with diagnoses including anxiety. Observations of the resident, interviews with staff, and review of the resident's 08/01/24 service plan, 06/01/24 through 08/28/24 temporary service plans, progress notes, physician communications, and incident investigations were completed. The resident was able to communicate needs to staff and required full assistance of one to two staff for ADL care and transfers.

Review of the resident's records showed the following: * A progress note dated 07/16/24, indicated the resident’s daughter reported the resident had expressed concerns to her. The resident told his/her daughter a male resident had “invited himself...” to the resident’s room on two different occasions and was “being rude and crude…” No investigation was documented regarding the allegations. There was no additional information within the progress notes about the incident, what occurred, how abuse and neglect was ruled out, the staff response to the resident incidents, or follow-up action related to the incidents. The facility was asked to report the incident to the local SPD office. A confirmation of the report was provided to the surveyor. The need to ensure all incidents were promptly investigated to rule out abuse was discussed with Staff 1 (ED), Staff 3 (Wellness Director/RN), and Staff 4 (Wellness Director Assistant/LPN) on 08/30/24. The staff acknowledged the findings.

OAR 411-054-0040 (1-2) Change of Condition and Monitoring (1) CHANGE OF CONDITION. These rules define a resident's change of condition as either short term or significant with the following meanings: (a) Short term change of condition means a change in the resident's health or functioning that is expected to resolve or be reversed with minimal intervention or is an established, predictable, cyclical pattern associated with a previously diagnosed condition. (b) Significant change of condition means a major deviation from the most recent evaluation that may affect multiple areas of functioning or health that is not expected to be short term and imposes significant risk to the resident.(c) If a resident experiences a significant change of condition that is a major deviation in the resident's health or functional abilities, the facility must evaluate the resident, refer to the facility nurse, document the change, and update the service plan as needed. (d) If a resident experiences a short-term change of condition that is expected to resolve or reverse with minimal intervention, the facility must determine and document what action or intervention is needed for the resident. (A) The determined action or intervention must be communicated to staff on each shift. (B) The documentation of staff instructions or interventions must be resident specific and made part of the resident record with weekly progress noted until the condition resolves. (2) MONITORING. The facility must have written policies to ensure a resident monitoring and reporting system is implemented 24-hours a day. The policies must specify staff responsibilities and identify criteria for notifying the administrator, registered nurse, or healthcare provider. The facility must: (a) Monitor each resident consistent with his or her evaluated needs and service plan; (b) Train staff to identify changes in the resident's physical, emotional and mental functioning and document and report on the resident's changes of condition; (c) Have a reporting protocol with access to a designated staff person, 24-hours a day, seven days a week, who can determine if a change in the resident's condition requires further action; and (d) Provide written communication of a resident's change of condition, and any required interventions, for caregivers on each shift. This Rule is not met as evidenced by: Based on interview and record review, it was determined the facility failed to ensure residents who had short-term changes of condition were evaluated, resident-specific instructions or interventions were developed and reviewed for effectiveness, and weekly progress documented until resolution for 1 of 6 sampled residents (#4) who experienced changes of condition. Findings include, but are not limited to: Resident 4 was admitted to the facility in 03/2024 with diagnoses including anxiety. The resident's 08/01/24 service plan,05/28/24 through 08/28/24 progress notes, incident investigations, temporary service plans, and physician communications were reviewed. a. The resident experienced multiple short-term changes without noted progress at least weekly until resolved and/or lacked resident-specific directions to staff in the following areas: * Skin tears; * Medication changes; * Allegation of resident altercation/abuse; * Bruises to hip and arm; and * Multiple falls. b. Incident investigations on 06/08/24, 06/09/24, and 07/02/24 indicated the resident had falls as a result of slipping from the recliner chair. The incident investigation on 07/02/24 indicated the resident had slipped out of his/her recliner many times, and the facility planned to discuss the safety of the lift chair with the resident’s family. Under the section “Discuss Interventions” it was noted “unsure if the lift chair is appropriate and safe for (the resident).” No other documentation or evaluation of the lift chair could be located. In an interview on 08/30/24, Staff 3 (Wellness Director/RN) was unsure if she had completed an assessment of the lift chair. Staff 3 stated they had tried additional non-slip options to the seat to attempt to prevent additional slips and falls. No evaluation or assessment of the safety of the lift chair or the effectiveness of the device was located. The need to ensure short-term changes of condition had documentation of weekly progress until resolution, interventions were re-evaluated for effectiveness, and provided clear, resident-specific directions to staff was discussed with Staff 1ED), Staff 3 (Wellness Director/RN), and Staff 4 (Wellness Director Assistant/LPN) on 08/30/24. The staff acknowledged the findings.

At minimum, the RN must assess all residents with a significant change of condition. The assessment may be a full or problem focused assessment as determined by the RN. A chart review or phone consultation may be performed as part of this assessment. The RN must document findings, resident status, and interventions made as a result of this assessment. The assessment must be timely, but is not required prior to emergency response in acute situations.(C) Monitoring of Resident Condition. The facility must specify the role of the licensed nurse in the facility's monitoring and reporting system.(D) Participation on Service Planning Team.

A licensed nurse must provide individual and group education activities as required by individual service plans and facility policies.(F) Intermittent Direct Nursing Services. If a resident requires nursing services that are not available through hospice, home health, a third-party referral, or the task cannot be delegated to facility staff, the facility must arrange to have such services provided on an intermittent or temporary basis. Such services may be of a temporary nature as defined in facility policy, admission agreements and disclosure information. This Rule is not met as evidenced by: Based on observation, interview, and record review, it was determined the facility failed to ensure an RN assessment was completed in a timely manner and documented findings, resident status, and interventions made as a result of the assessment for 2 of 3 sampled residents (#s 1 and 6) who experienced significant changes of condition. Findings include, but are not limited to: 1. Resident 1 was admitted to the facility in 10/2008 with diagnoses including COPD. Observations of the resident, interviews with staff, review of the service plan, dated 07/12/24, and 06/24/24 through 08/28/24 progress notes, physician communications, and weight records was completed. The resident required full assistance from staff for ADL care. The resident was able to eat independently with some reminders to chew slowly and swallow before taking additional bites. The resident was able to make some needs known but not consistently. Staff anticipated the resident’s needs whenever possible. Multiple observations of the resident between 08/28/24 and 08/30/24 showed the resident seated in the lobby of the facility with walker next to him/her or seated in a wheelchair. Meal observations showed s/he ate independently with reminders from staff and tablemates to chew slowly and swallow one bite at a time. The resident was provided with a mechanical soft diet and minced/ground meats with extra sauces. The resident was able to alternate food and fluids throughout the meal with minimal reminders. The resident would visit with those around him/her and participate in different activities offered in the lobby area. Weight records for 05/2024 through 08/2024 showed the following: * A 22-pound weight gain between 05/05/24 and 06/04/24, which constituted a 13.9% increase in one month. * A 13.1-pound loss between 07/08/24 and 08/09/24, which constituted a 7.26% weight loss in one month. The resident’s weight increased less than two pounds between 08/09/24 and 08/23/24. In interviews between 08/28/24 and 08/30/24, the resident indicated s/he had no concerns and had plenty to eat and drink. The resident was not sure if s/he could ask for alternate items or more to eat because s/ never had the need. In interviews between 08/28/24 and 08/30/24, Staff 11 and Staff 16 (CGs) indicated the resident required full assistance with ADL care but could eat on his/her own. The resident had swallowing precautions in place to eat slowly and swallow one bite before taking the next bite. The staff indicated the kitchen provided the resident’s special diet at each meal. The resident had mechanical soft items, and the meats were more of a ground-up texture, so no large chunks, and extra moisture. The staff indicated the resident had a good appetite and did well with his/her meals. In an interview on 08/30/24, Staff 3 (Wellness Director/RN) indicated she was aware of the weight changes and the physician was contacted. She could not locate a significant change assessment and was not sure why one was not completed. The facility failed to ensure an RN assessment was completed for the weight loss and gain which documented findings, resident status, and interventions made as a result of the assessment. The need to ensure an RN assessment was completed which documented findings, resident status, and interventions made as a result of the assessment for all significant changes of condition was discussed with Staff 1 (ED) and Staff 3 (Wellness Director/RN) on 08/30/24. The staff acknowledged the findings. 2. Resident 6 was admitted to the facility in 04/2023 with diagnoses including congestive heart failure, rheumatoid arthritis, and asthma. The resident’s current service plan, most recently updated on 07/13/24, progress notes dated 05/28/24 through 08/28/24, and temporary service plans were reviewed. Interviews with staff and the resident were completed. The following was identified: Progress notes revealed the resident was on alert charting starting in 05/2024 related to his/her dentures being missing. In an interview with the resident on 08/30/24, s/he stated that losing his/her dentures had changed their life. S/he reported they were uncomfortable being around other people without their dentures. Because of this discomfort, the resident said s/he no longer ate meals in the dining room and only left their apartment at night when there were very few people in the common areas. A progress note dated 05/28/24 indicated the resident had experienced a significant change of condition related to “Missing dentures, missing glasses, open areas in mouth, pressure wounds to upper leg/low buttock, and left side of buttock.” The note was written by Staff 4 (Assistant Wellness Director/LPN). There was no documented follow-up by the RN to confirm Staff 4’s findings. The first documented assessment by the RN was dated 07/30/24.
