During an interview with Staff 29 (MT) on 08/09/22 at 11:20 am, she verified the resident had facial hair on the upper lip and chin and had not been shaved.


Resident 10's service plan was not followed related to providing assistance with shaving.


Resident 10's service plan was discussed with Staff 2 (ED) and Staff 3 (RN) during the survey on 08/10/22. Staff acknowledged the findings.

Based on observation, interview and record review, it was determined the facility failed to ensure service plans were reflective of residents' needs, were readily available to staff, provided clear direction regarding the delivery of services and were followed for 2 of 4 sampled residents (#s 9 and 10) whose service plans were reviewed. This is a repeat citation. Findings include, but are not limited to:


1. Resident 9 was admitted to the facility in 02/2020 with diagnoses including dementia and anxiety disorder.


Review of the service plan revealed the following:


a. The service plan, readily available to caregiving staff in the service plan binder on the unit, was dated 03/12/22. During an interview on 08/09/22 at 3:02 pm, the surveyor asked Staff 3 (RN) if the caregiving staff had any additional way to access the most recent service plan, dated 07/11/22. She confirmed the CGs only accessed the service plan through the binder located in the unit, and the most recent updated service plan was located in the locked medication room in the resident's chart.


b. Observations and interviews with staff revealed the service plan available to staff failed to provide clear direction to staff and was not reflective in the following areas:


* Bathing schedule for hospice staff and facility staff;

* ADL assistance and cueing; and

* Behavior management techniques related to the relationship with another resident.


The need to ensure a current service plan was available to staff, provided clear direction and was reflective of the residents' current needs was discussed with Staff 3 on 08/10/22 at 11:08 am, Staff 2 (Executive Director) and Staff 30 (Executive Director) on 08/10/22 at 12:42 pm, and Staff 2, Staff 3 and Staff 30 at survey's exit. They acknowledged the findings. No further information was provided.

Based on interview and record review, it was determined the facility failed to ensure delegation and supervision of special tasks of nursing care was completed in accordance with Oregon State Board of Nursing (OSBN) Division 47 rules, for 1 of 1 sampled resident (# 6) who received insulin injections by unlicensed facility staff. Findings include, but are not limited to:


According to OSBN Division 47 Administrative Rules, delegation means an RN authorizes an unlicensed person to perform tasks of nursing care and indicates the authorization in writing. The delegation process includes nursing assessment of the client in a specific situation, evaluation of the ability of the unlicensed persons, teaching the task and observing the staff demonstrate the task.


Resident 6's MARs, reviewed from 03/01/22 through 04/11/22, revealed insulin had been given by Staff 9 (CG/MT), Staff 10 (MT) and Staff 11 (MT) on multiple occasions.


Delegation records for Resident 6, were reviewed on 04/11/22 and 04/12/22 and revealed the following:


* There was no RN assessment including documented evidence to determine that the resident's condition was stable and predictable, prior to deciding to delegate the task;


* Transfer delegation was completed on 04/01/22. There was no documented evidence the incoming RN reviewed Resident 6's condition that there was no RN assessment for the resident's diabetic condition completed by the outgoing RN;


* There was no current facility RN assessment including how the RN determined the resident's condition was stable and predictable to continue delegation of the task, given the resident had experienced CBGs greater than 600 on multiple occasions;


* There were no documented evidence Staff 9, 10 and 11 were delegated for the insulin administration to Resident 6 including the staff's skills, abilities and willingness for the delegation tasks; and


* There was no rationale, based on the competency of the unlicensed staff, for how frequently the unlicensed staff should be supervised and re-evaluated.


The need to ensure staff who administered insulin injections was delegated in accordance with OSBN Division 47 Rules was discussed with Staff 2 (ED) and Staff 3 (RN) on 04/12/22 and 04/13/22. Staff acknowledged the findings.

Plan of Correction

1. RN will review all diabetic Orders for Insulin and CBG's and ensure parameters are specific to each resident and following community policy. MT training will be conducted on signing of medications, delegated staff per policy and regulation.

2. RN taking over delegations will include training, medication administration, delegation roles, signing of medications, parameters and who to call/when to call. 3.Nursing team (RN/RCC) to review insulin administration weekly to ensure this is being done properly.

4. RN will be responsible to see that the corrections are completed/monitored.

Findings include, but are not limited to:


Resident 4's clinical record was reviewed during the survey. On 04/12/22, the surveyor requested outside provider notes for review. Multiple staff interviewed were unaware of where to locate the documentation. On 04/13/22, Staff 4 (RCC) provided copies of Hospice provider notes from visits from 03/25/22 through 04/04/22.


a. On 04/01/22, a Hospice provider documented "encourage staff to allow [patient] to rest in bed if drowsy, support with pillow on left side when awake in chair".  There was no evidence this recommendation had been reviewed and communicated for facility staff to follow.


b. The outsider provider notes lacked documented evidence they had been reviewed by facility staff for any recommendations made by outside providers.


In an interview on 04/03/22, Staff 4 and Staff 3 (RN) explained the facility was planning to start a new process for reviewing outside provider notes that would include having the notes reviewed by facility staff.
