Implemented: ORS 441.111, 441.114, 443.400-443.455, 443.991 This Rule is not met as evidenced by: Based on interview and record review, it was determined the facility failed to ensure resident evaluations were updated within 30 days of move-in to the facility, and quarterly evaluations were completed timely or reflective of resident care needs for 2 of 2 sampled residents (#s 1 and 3) whose evaluations were reviewed. Findings include, but are not limited to: 1. Resident 3 was admitted to the facility in 12/2024 with diagnoses including dementia and polyneuropathy. The initial evaluation, dated 12/18/24, was not updated as needed during the 30 days following the resident's move into the facility. The need to ensure new move-in evaluations were updated within 30 days following the resident's move into the facility was discussed with Staff 1 (Administrator) and Staff 20 (ALF ED) on 03/06/25. They acknowledged the findings. ?2. Resident 1 was admitted to the facility in 10/2024 with diagnoses including dementia, depression and congestive heart failure. Observations of the resident on 03/03/25 through 03/06/25, interviews with staff, and review of the resident’s current service plan and evaluation were conducted during the survey. a. The quarterly evaluation was completed 01/05/25, three days after the service plan was updated on 01/02/25. There was no documented evidence to indicate the evaluation, which was the foundation used to develop the service plan, was updated until after the service plan was completed. b. The quarterly evaluation was not reflective in the following areas: * Mental health; * Current skin conditions; * Significant weight gain; * Behaviors exhibited; * Fall risk; and * Sleeping location. The need to ensure quarterly evaluations were the basis of the quarterly service plan and accurate was discussed with Staff 1 (Administrator), Staff 14 (Regional RN), Staff 15 (Regional Director of Operations), Staff 20 (ED), and Staff 21 (Regional RN) on 03/06/25. They 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 observation, interview, and record review, it was determined the facility failed to evaluate the resident, refer to the facility nurse, document the change, and update the service plan as needed for a significant change of condition, and failed to determine what resident-specific action or intervention was needed for a resident following a short-term change of condition, communicate the determined action or intervention to staff, and document progress until the condition resolved for 2 of 2 sampled residents (#s 1 and 3) who experienced changes of condition. Resident 1 experienced a severe and ongoing significant weight gain followed by a hospital visit and an infection in his/her legs. Findings include, but are not limited to: 1. Resident 1 was admitted to the facility in 10/2024 with diagnoses including dementia, depression and congestive heart failure. The resident's clinical record was reviewed, including 10/09/24 through 02/26/24 weight records, 01/02/25 service plan, 11/01/24 through 02/28/25 MARs, 11/10/24 through 03/02/25 progress notes, interim service plans and outside provider notes. The resident was observed, and interviews with staff, the resident and family were conducted. a. Facility weight records noted the following: * 10/09/24 - 155 pounds; * 11/06/24 - 163 pounds; * 11/15/24 – 166 pounds; * 11/20/24 – 164 pounds; * 11/27/24 – 170 pounds; and * 12/02/24 - 170 pounds. Resident 1 gained 8 pounds which constituted a severe weight gain of 5.2% of his/her body weight in one month (10/09/24 through 11/06/24), resulting in a significant change of condition. From 11/06/24 through 11/27/24, the resident gained an additional 7 pounds which constituted an additional significant weight gain, or a gain of 4.5% in three weeks. Review of the progress notes and physician correspondence revealed the following: * 11/10/24 - Resident 1 had “swelling in hands, feet, calves…moaning in pain. has [sic] a bit short of breath;” * 11/11/24 – a Physician Progress/Information Record instructed the facility to “Pl. (please) avoid extra salts, pl. monitor closely for short of breath and worsening swellings and CALL PCP’s (primary care physician’s) office for these symptoms”; * 11/18/24 - “care staff discovered resident’s legs and calves are very swollen and red. and there is yellow-brownish drainage coming out of R (right) great toe underneath toenail.” * 11/22/24 - Resident 1 sent to the ER (emergency room) for a “change in baseline and looking yellowish in color and…blood sugar was 275”; and * 11/23/24 a visiting nurse “noticed resident having cellulitis (bacterial infection of the skin) in both legs. Both Left and right legs are swollen, red and warm to touch. Please make sure resident has legs elevated throughout the day when able.” Resident 1 started antibiotic treatment on 11/24/25. Observations of the resident during 03/03/25 through 03/06/25 revealed Resident 1’s legs were edematous and the right leg was wrapped with a compression dressing. Resident 1 spent time in the morning and afternoons in a recliner with legs elevated. Resident 1 was identified to have heart failure and at risk for “Increased swelling of legs and feet, Shortness of breath with activity,…sudden weight gain,” and experienced a significant weight gain on 11/06/24. There was no documented evidence the facility evaluated the resident’s significant weight gain, referred to the facility RN following a significant change of condition, determined and documented interventions regarding the weight gain, communicated the interventions to staff and monitored the resident according to his/her evaluated needs. The resident continued to gain weight and his/her condition worsened resulting in an emergency room visit and diagnosis of cellulitis. In an interview with Staff 1 (Administrator) on 03/05/25 at 10:20 am indicated there was no documented evidence the resident’s weight gain was referred to the facility RN until an RN assessment was completed on 12/01/24, which was 25 days from the significant change of condition. The facility failed to identify and evaluate the resident's significant weight gain, refer to the facility RN following a significant change of condition, determine and document interventions regarding the weight gain, communicate the interventions to staff and monitor the resident according to his/her evaluated needs. The resident’s condition worsened resulting in a hospital visit and cellulitis that required antibiotic treatment. Refer to C 280, example 1. b. There was no documented evidence the facility determined what resident-specific actions or interventions were needed for the resident, communicated the determined action or intervention to staff, or documented weekly progress through resolution for the following short-term changes of condition: * 11/23/24 – cellulitis in both legs; * 11/24/24 – new antibiotic for infection; * 12/05/24 – “1 in (inch) X.5 inch scab covered open blister” on “back of left calf near ankle”; * 12/19/24 – initiation of HH RN services; * 12/27/24 – return from ER for “over an hour resident screaming help it hurts….[his/her] foot was red, hot to touch and swollen; * 12/27/24 – elevated blood pressure; * 12/31/24 – non-injury fall; * 12/31/24 – bruising to both forearms; * 01/03/25 – HH PT note indicated “patient demonstrating difficulty maintaining O2 levels in 90%.” Instructed to “Monitor O2 levels.”; * 01/10/25 – elevated blood pressure; * 01/14/25 – new medications including Lasix (for fluid retention) and spironolactone (for high blood pressure); * 01/19/25 – respiratory illness; * 01/25/25 – HIF (head injury fall)/ER return; * 01/25/25 – “sutures on the L (left) eyelid, R thumb, and bruising around the L eye and nose; * 01/28/25 – loss of spouse; * 02/06/25 – new medication mirtazapine (for mood and agitation); * 02/12/25 – possible UTI (urinary tract infection); and * 02/27/14 – “rash under breast”. The need to ensure the facility evaluated the resident, referred to the facility nurse when necessary, documented the change, and updated the service plan as needed for a significant change of condition, and determined what resident-specific action or intervention was needed for the resident following a short-term change of condition, communicated the determined action or intervention to staff, and documented progress until the condition resolved was reviewed with Staff 1 (Administrator), Staff 14 (Regional RN), Staff 15 (Regional Director), Staff 20 (ED), and Staff 21 (Regional RN) on 03/06/25. They acknowledged the findings. No further information was provided. ?2. Resident 3 was admitted to the facility in 12/2024 with diagnoses including dementia and polyneuropathy. A review of the resident's clinical records,12/18/24 through 03/03/25, indicated the following changes of condition: * 01/03/25 Resident missed an AM dose of metoprolol 50mg; * 01/04/25 Right side facial swelling; * 01/04/24 Increased pain; * 01/04/25 Increased behaviors, anxiety/agitation; * 01/04/25 New medication, buspirone 10mg; * 01/16/25 Prescription changes of PRN trazadone changed to routinely scheduled; * 01/23/25 Resident had a non-injury fall; * 01/23/25 Resident had a new order for multiple medications including Lasix 20 mg, lisinopril 20 mg, potassium 20 MEQ and PRN quetiapine 25 mg; * 01/31/25 Resident had a new order for acetaminophen 500 mg PRN every 6 hours as needed for pain; * 01/31/25 Prescription order for wound care to pressure ulcer; * 02/15/24 Resident returned from ER with new diagnosis of flu and new medication Tamiflu; and * 02/25/25 Resident had a discontinue order for capsaicin and Voltaren creams for pain. There was no documented evidence the facility had evaluated these changes (to determine actions and interventions), provided written instructions to staff, and/or monitored the above documented changes of condition at least weekly to resolution. The need to ensure all changes of conditions were reviewed, resident-specific actions and interventions were developed and communicated to staff, and monitored until resolution was discussed with Staff 1 (Administrator), Staff 14 (Regional RN), Staff 15 (Regional Director), Staff 20 (ED), Staff 21 (Regional RN) and Staff 22 (ED) on 03/06/25.They 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.

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. If the resident experiences a significant change of condition and the service plan is updated, the licensed nurse must participate on the Service Planning Team, or must review the service plan with date and signature within 48 hours.(E) Health Care Teaching and Counseling. 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 a significant change of condition assessment was completed by the RN, which included findings, resident status, and interventions, for 2 of 2 sampled residents (#s 1 and 3) who experienced significant changes of condition for weight gain and a pressure ulcer. Resident 1 experienced ongoing, significant weight gain followed by a hospital visit and an infection in his/her legs. Findings include, but are not limited to: 1. Resident 1 was admitted to the facility in 10/2024 with diagnoses including dementia, depression and congestive heart failure. Observations of the resident during 03/03/25 through 03/06/25 revealed Resident 1’s legs were edematous and the right leg was wrapped with a compression dressing. Resident 1 would spend time in the morning and afternoons in a recliner with his/her legs elevated. The resident's clinical record was reviewed, including 10/09/24 through 03/05/24 weight records, 01/02/25 service plan, 11/01/24 through 02/28/25 MARs, 11/10/24 through 03/02/25 progress notes, and interim service plans. The resident was observed, and interviews with staff, the resident and family were conducted. Resident 1’s weight records noted the following: * 10/09/24 - 155 pounds; * 11/06/24 - 163 pounds; * 11/15/24 – 166 pounds; * 11/20/24 – 164 pounds; * 11/27/24 – 170 pounds; and * 12/02/24 - 170 pounds. Resident 1 gained 8 pounds which constituted a severe weight gain of 5.2% of his/her body weight in one month (10/09/24 through 11/06/24), which was considered severe and triggered a significant change of condition. Between 11/06/24 through 11/27/24, the resident gained an additional 7 pounds which constituted an additional significant weight gain, or a gain of 4.5% of his/her body weight in three weeks. There was no documented evidence an RN completed an assessment of the severe weight gain until 12/01/24. The significant, ongoing weight gain represented a serious risk to the health, safety, and welfare of the resident. The need to ensure all significant changes of condition were assessed by an RN, as well as ensuring they were completed in a timely manner, with documented findings, resident status, and interventions made as a result of the assessment, was discussed with Staff 1 (Administrator), Staff 14 (Regional RN), Staff 15 (Regional Director), Staff 20 (ED), and Staff 21 (Regional RN) on 03/06/25. They acknowledged the findings. No further information was provided. Refer to C 270, example 1a. ?Resident 3 was admitted to the facility in 12/2024 with diagnoses including dementia. On 01/31/25, progress notes stated new wound care orders were received along with recommendation to encourage resident to offload. A second 03/01/25 progress note stated “dressing still in place from HH. No changes observed to pressure wound. Resident has not yet begun medication changes.” On 03/05/25 at 2:52pm, in an interview with Staff 2 (Assistant Wellness Director), she stated she was unaware that Resident 3 had a pressure ulcer. Per the surveyor’s request, Staff 2 then went and looked at Resident 3’s coccyx. Staff 2 determined that Resident 3’s skin was healed. Staff 3 acknowledged that no RN assessment had been completed for this significant change of condition. The facility failed to ensure an RN assessment was completed for a significant change of condition which documented findings, resident status, and interventions made as a result of the assessment. The need for a timely RN assessment to be completed for a significant change of condition was discussed with Staff 1 (Administrator), Staff 14 (Regional RN), Staff 15 (Regional Director), Staff 20 (ED), Staff 21 (Regional RN) and Staff 22 (ED) on 03/06/25. They acknowledged the findings.
