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 a significant change of condition were evaluated, referred to the RN for assessment, and the service plan was updated as needed, and/or 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 on all shifts, and document weekly progress until the condition resolved for 4 of 6 sampled residents (#s 1, 2, 4, and 5) who experienced changes of condition. Findings include, but are not limited to: 1. Resident 2 was admitted to the facility in 11/2023 with diagnoses including Type 2 diabetes mellitus and psychotic disturbance. The resident's current service plan dated 01/27/25, temporary service plans, the 04/01/25 through 04/28/25 MAR, and 03/09/25 to 04/28/25 progress notes were reviewed. Observations of the resident and interviews with caregivers were completed between 04/29/25 and 05/01/25. The resident experienced multiple short-term changes of condition as outlined: a. The following short-term changes of condition lacked documentation of resident-specific actions or interventions needed for the resident, communication of the determined actions or interventions to staff on all shifts, and progress noted at least weekly through resolution: * 04/22/25 – Resident did not receive his/her routine insulin; and * 04/23/25 – Resident did not receive his/her routine insulin. b. The following short-term changes of condition lacked documentation of resident-specific actions or interventions needed for the resident, communication of the determined actions or interventions to staff on all shifts: * 03/12/25 – Redness with shearing to the coccyx. The need to ensure resident-specific actions or interventions for short-term changes of condition were determined, documented, communicated to staff on each shift, and the changes of condition were monitored at least weekly through resolution was discussed with Staff 1 (Regional Director of Operations) and Staff 2 (Regional Nurse Consultant) on 05/01/25 at 11:25 am. They acknowledged the findings. ?2. Resident 1 was admitted to the facility in 04/2025 with diagnoses including dysphagia and left hemiplegia following cerebral infarction (stroke) and vascular dementia.

The need to ensure the facility determined and documented what action or interventions were needed for short-term changes of condition, communicated the interventions to staff on all shifts, and monitored the short-term changes of condition, with progress noted at least weekly, through resolution was reviewed with Staff 1 (Regional Director of Operations) and Staff 2 (Regional Nurse Consultant) on 05/01/25 at 10:20 am.

The resident's most recent evaluation and service plan, dated 03/24/25, and 01/28/25 through 04/28/25 temporary services plans, progress notes, and skin monitoring shower notes were reviewed, interviews with staff and the resident were conducted, and observations of the resident were completed. The following was identified: a. On 04/02/25, the resident was documented as weighing 126.2 pounds. His/her last recorded weight, on 01/05/25, was 138.6 pounds. This was a loss of 12.2 pounds, or 11.2% of his/her total body weight, in three months and constituted a significant change of condition. There was no documented evidence that the facility evaluated the resident, referred to the facility RN for assessment, or updated the service plan. In an interview at 8:59 am on 05/01/25, a MT confirmed that after the weight was recorded in the MAR no additional steps were taken to evaluate the resident or refer to the facility RN. The MT stated the facility’s process is that the RN will review the weights when they are able to. Refer to C280. b.

The following short-term change of condition lacked documentation of progress, at least weekly, through resolution: * 04/07/25 – Bloody nose.

Findings include, but are not limited to: 1. Resident 3 moved into the facility in 10/2023 with diagnoses including Parkinson’s disease and muscle weakness. A review of his/her current service plan and interviews with staff revealed s/he was dependent on two staff for toileting tasks to be performed with a mechanical lift transfer in and out of bed. On 04/29/25 at 11:15 am, the surveyor observed two staff provide incontinence care for Resident 5 while s/he was in bed. Both staff had already donned gloves prior to surveyor’s arrival, and the resident was lying on his/her back. The soiled brief was removed by one CG and thrown into a trash receptacle. The resident was rolled to one side, and the caregiver then placed a clean brief without performing hand hygiene or a glove change. The resident was then rolled to the opposite side and additional perineal care was performed along with adjusting the clean brief and placing shorts. The caregivers assisted the resident to his/her back. After the clothes were adjusted, both staff doffed gloves without performing hand hygiene and were observed touching the resident’s sheets, blanket, pillows, wheelchair, draw sheet, mechanical lift, and sling. The need to ensure infection prevention and control protocols were followed was discussed with Staff 1 (Regional Director of Operations) and Staff 2 (Regional Nurse Consultant) on 04/30/25 at 2:35 pm. The findings were acknowledged. ?2. Resident 2 was admitted to the facility in 11/2023 with diagnoses including Type 2 diabetes mellitus and psychotic disturbance.
