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 ensure residents who had short term changes of condition were evaluated, resident-specific instructions or interventions were developed, the condition was monitored at least weekly to resolution and that interventions were re-evaluated to determine effectiveness for 3 of 5 sampled residents (#s 1, 2 and 5) who experienced changes of condition. Findings include, but are not limited to: 1. Resident 5 was admitted to the facility in 11/2022 with diagnoses including pain. The resident's 02/12/25 service plan, 03/03/25 through 06/01/25 progress notes, incident investigation notes and physician communications were reviewed. 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: * Foot swelling; * Toe bruising and pain; and * Skin Tear. The need to ensure short-term changes of condition had documentation of weekly progress until resolution and provided resident-specific directions to staff was discussed with Staff 1 (ED) and Staff 3 (RCC) on 06/04/25. The staff acknowledged the findings. 2. Resident 2 was admitted to the facility in 05/2022 with diagnoses including dementia, traumatic brain injury and hypotension (low blood pressure). The resident's service plans, progress notes and incident reports dated 03/02/25 through 06/02/25, and MARs dated 05/01/25 to 05/31/25 were reviewed, observations were made, and interviews with staff were conducted. The following short-term changes of condition, documented in the progress notes, lacked actions or interventions determined and communicated to staff on all shifts, and were not monitored at least weekly to resolution: * 04/17/25 – Medication changes; * 04/18/25 – Fall; * 04/22/25 – New medication (Metamucil for constipation), and discontinuation of Melatonin (for sleep); * 04/29/25 – Fall with head strike; and * 05/13/25 – Fall. The need to ensure all changes of condition had actions or interventions determined and communicated to staff on all shifts, and/or were monitored at least weekly to resolution was discussed with Staff 1 (ED), Staff 3 (RCC) and Staff 10 (MT) on 06/04/25, and Staff 2 (RN) on 06/03/25. They acknowledged the findings. 3. Resident 1 was admitted to the facility in 10/2022 with diagnoses including myocardial infarction (heart attack) and type 2 diabetes. The resident's 03/04/25 through 06/02/25 progress notes, service plan dated 02/12/25 and interim service plans were reviewed, and interviews with staff and the resident were conducted. The following was identified: A progress note indicated Resident 1 had a chronic wound to his/her lower back. “Pinhole size draining wound.” There was no documented evidence the facility communicated actions or interventions to staff on each shift or monitored the condition at least weekly to resolution. The need to ensure actions or interventions for changes of condition were communicated to staff on each shift and the changes of condition were monitored through resolution was discussed with Staff 1 (ED) on 06/04/25. He acknowledged the findings.

Plan of Correction

1. The actions that will be taken to correct the rule are: a) The service plans for sample residents 1,2, and 5 will be updated to ensure that all short term changes of condition were documented and communicated to staff. The resident's progress will be evaluated at least weekly until resolution. 2. The system will be corrected so that the violation will not occur by: a) The Licensed Nurse or designee will review all current resident service plans to ensure service plans are descriptive of the residents current health and functional status. The Licensed Nurse or designee will ensure that all significant and short-term changes of condition are reflected in an updated service plan or temporary service plan respectively. The Licensed Nurse will document instructions and interventions that are specific to each change of condition. b) Any change will be monitored at least weekly with a minimum of a progress note and communicated to staff. 3. The area needing correction will be evaluated by the Licensed Nurse and the Administrator by completing weekly audits to ensure compliance. Areas of non compliance will be addressed immediately. 4. The Administrator and Licensed Nurse will be responsible to ensure that corrections are completed and monitored.

On 06/04/25, the need to ensure an assessment was completed by an RN, PT, or OT prior to use of any supportive device with restraining qualities, including precautions and instructions to staff was discussed with Staff 1 (ED), Staff 3 (RCC), Staff 10 (MT), and on 06/03/25 with Staff 2 (RN). They acknowledged the findings. 2. Resident 3 was admitted to the facility in 04/2025 with diagnoses including congestive heart failure, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and hypertension (high blood pressure). During an interview on 06/03/25 with Resident 3 it was observed that the resident had half side rails on each side of the bed. The right one was in the up position and the left side rail was down. There was no documented evidence the side rail had been assessed by an RN, PT or OT, or that caregivers had been instructed on precautions and the correct use of the device. On 06/04/25, the need to ensure an assessment was completed by an RN, PT, or OT prior to use of any supportive device with restraining qualities, including precautions and instructions to staff was discussed with Staff 1 (ED), Staff 3 (RCC), Staff 10 (MT), and on 06/03/25 with Staff 2 (RN). They acknowledged the findings. 3. Resident 4 was admitted to the facility in 12/2018 with diagnoses including dementia. Observations of the resident, interviews with staff, and review of the service plan dated 09/10/24 showed the resident had a half side rail on the left side of the bed. The rail was in the center of the bed. The service plan did not reflect a side rail was in use. The resident rarely got up out of bed. S/he was able to direct his/her own care and indicated the side rail helped him/her in bed. Review of the resident's record showed no assessment, or evaluation was completed of the device. The device was not evaluated at least quarterly to determine safety and appropriateness for the resident. The need to complete an assessment and the required components for the use of devices with restraining qualities was discussed with Staff 1 (ED) and Staff 3 (RCC) on 06/04/25. The staff acknowledged the findings.
