The need for staff to provide fluids within reach of the resident and cueing to eat his/her meals was discussed with Staff 5 who stated a Temporary Service Plan (TSP) would be created to instruct staff on nutrition and hydration care and interventions.* On 09/08/23 at 8:20 am, Resident 3 was observed asleep in bed. There was a cup of water with a straw on the over-the-bed table next to the resident's bed, however it was out of reach of the resident. Staff 9 (MT) was interviewed regarding Resident 3's intake at breakfast. Staff 9 showed the surveyor the resident's plate with food on the dining room table. When asked if the resident ate any of the food, Staff 9 stated "not too much, just the bacon". Staff 9 was asked if there was a TSP available instructing staff on the resident's nutrition and hydration needs. Staff 9 said she was not aware of a TSP, but was told at "shift change report" that the resident would be getting a "shake" from the kitchen. Resident 3 remained in bed for long periods of time. The resident did not have any fluids available within reach, while s/he was in bed. Meals were placed on the bedside table without encouragement, cueing to eat or offers to assist with eating provided by staff. On 09/08/23 at 8:45 am, Staff 5 was informed the resident needed to have access to fluids and direction provided to care staff on all shifts to address the nutritional and care needs of the resident.On 09/08/23 an immediate plan of correction to address the lack of service plans available to staff to follow and provide care to residents was requested. The plan was provided by the facility and approved by the survey team on 09/08/23 at 6:23 pm and the situation was abated.The need to ensure service plans were available to staff, reflective of current care needs, provided clear direction to staff and were implemented was discussed with Staff 1 and Staff 5 on 09/08/23. They acknowledged the findings.4. Resident 4 moved into the facility in 05/2023 with diagnoses including dementia. a. The service plan available to staff, located in the service plan binder on the unit, was last updated 08/27/23. On 09/07/23, the most recent evaluation was requested and provided. The quarterly evaluation had been completed on 08/29/23. There was no documented evidence the 08/27/23 service plan had been updated to reflect the most recent evaluation in the following areas: * Unexplained weight loss was marked as "yes" on the evaluation but not addressed in the service plan; * Assistance needed with personal hygiene, grooming and oral care was marked "no" on the evaluation, however, the resident required staff assistance;* Skin integrity service plan was marked as "no" on the evaluation, however the resident had multiple skin treatments; and* The evaluation included the resident's use of a bed cane, however, there was no bed cane in use.b. The 08/27/23 service plan failed to provide clear direction regarding interventions for behaviors of wandering into other resident's rooms and hyper-sexualized behaviors. The service plan did not include a written description of what, when, how, and how often the services should be provided when problematic behaviors occurred.The need to ensure service plans reflected the resident's needs as identified in the evaluation and included clear interventions for staff to follow was discussed with Staff 1 (ED) and Staff 6 (Consultant) on 09/11/23. They acknowledged the findings.
2. Resident 8 moved into the facility in 04/2023 with diagnoses including dementia with unspecified psychotic disturbance.a. The Individualized Service Plan Report (s) (ISP's), dated 06/22/23 and 07/14/23, were reviewed and identified the following:* The resident required a two person assist with toileting for extensive redirection, assist with cleansing peri-area after incontinent episodes, wore incontinence briefs, "encourage and assist"; * The resident was independent with bed mobility, needed reminders to rise from bed with use of walker, independently repositioned in bed;* One staff member to provide dressing, and provide simple instructions during dressing; * Required staff assistance with oral hygiene. If s/he refused, re-attempt three times before noting the refusal; and* Under the behavior/mood section - "Assess and anticipate [the resident's] needs, known needs for [resident] are listed in other areas of care plan." There was no further service plan information available and no Temporary Service Plans (TSP's) available for Resident 8. Progress notes dated 07/10/23 through 07/30/23 noted the following:* "Resident refused all care on [night] shift. [R]esident spent night on sofa in common area. Resident is visible soiled through clothing, but 3 staff unable to get resident to agree to assist with changing to clean clothes."* "Walked around with only a wet brief and sweatshirt when [Resident 8] woke up. Refused and screamed at care staff when they tried to help [the resident]."* "Refusing to change, starts to scream and hit when trying to provide help."* "Only thing is behavior wise, [the resident] did not let us change [him/her] for the morning and [the resident] was getting upset and trying to hit us."On 09/08/23 at 9:30 am, Staff 18 (CG), reported Resident 8 needed two to three caregivers for bladder/bowel care, was resistive to accept care, would yell, cuss, and hit staff, and would yell at other residents. Additionally, Staff 18 reported multiple times during the week, she would come into work and Resident 8's incontinence brief was saturated because the resident wouldn't let staff change him/her. "Sometimes it takes three people and when they don't have enough staff [during the nighttime], they wait until [staff] come in on day shift [at 6:00 am]."On 09/11/23 at 9:08 am, Staff 20 (CG), reported Resident 8 usually slept in late and missed breakfast. The resident was resistive to accept personal care and needed two to three caregivers for bladder/bowel care, two caregivers for bathing and dressing, one person for grooming and oral care, and one caregiver for emergency evacuation. Resident 8 was aggressive with staff, yelled at other residents, wandered around and went into other residents' rooms. Additionally, Staff 20 reported, "sometimes when we are short staffed on night shift and [the resident] is fighting [the staff]," Staff 20 would come in to work in the morning and the resident would need to have his/her incontinent brief changed right away. "[The night shift] are supposed to make sure [the residents] are changed before we come in, but sometimes, it takes two people to hold [his/her] hands and one person to change [him/her]." An observation of Resident 8 on 09/07/23 at approximately 4:30 pm, revealed the resident was walking independently and sat on another resident's bed in the Sandy Neighborhood. The resident lived in the Clackamas Neighborhood. The surveyor overheard a staff member raising her voice and repeated, "get out" three times. The ISP's dated 06/22/23 and 07/14/23 lacked the following information:* The resident required three-person assistance for bowel/bladder management;* The resident required two-person assistance for dressing and bathing;* The resident exhibited physical and verbal aggression towards staff and residents, and the plans lacked interventions for staff;* The resident was resistive to care including physical and verbal aggression towards staff during ADL care and interventions to assist with ADL care; and * The resident exhibited wandering behavior(s) and the plans lacked interventions for staff. The lack of complete and detailed service plans that provided clear direction to staff and interventions for Resident 8's behaviors resulted in neglect of care. On 09/08/23, an immediate plan of correction to address the lack of complete and detailed service plans that provided clear direction to staff and interventions for Resident 8's behaviors was requested. The plan was provided by the facility and approved by the survey team on 09/08/23 at 6:23 pm. The immediate situation was abated. b. The ISPs, dated 06/22/23 and 07/14/23 were not reflective of the resident's current care needs and did not provide clear direction to staff in the following areas: * Customary routines including: sleeping and eating;* Interests, hobbies, social and leisure activities;* Mental health including behavioral or mood problems;* Cognition including: memory, orientation, confusion and decision making;* Personality including how a person copes with change or challenging situations;* Communication including: ability to understand and to be understood;* Eating status;* Ability to manage medications;* Ability to use the call system;* Assistance needed for housekeeping;* Nutrition habits, food and fluid preferences;* One person emergency evacuation status; and* Environmental factors that impact the resident's behavior including: noise, lighting and room temperature. The need to ensure service plans were available to staff, reflective of current care needs and provided clear direction to staff was discussed with Staff 1 (ED), Staff 5 (Contractor) and Staff 7 (RN Consultant) on 09/08/23. They acknowledged the findings.
3. Resident 11 was admitted to the facility in 08/2022 with diagnoses including Alzheimer's disease. The resident's service plan dated 03/26/24 and temporary service plans were reviewed, observations of the resident were made, and interviews with staff were conducted. The resident's service plan was not reflective of his/her current needs and preferences and/or was not being followed in the following areas:* Elopement risk;* Bed repositioning;* Ability to feed self;* Mobility, including devices used;* Oral care;* Transfer assistance;* Pain;* Temperature preferences;* Hearing, vision, and communication;* Scoop mattress;* Dining preferences;* Fall interventions; and* Nail care.The need to ensure service plans were reflective of residents' current needs and preferences, and services were implemented was discussed with Staff 28 (ED), Witness 2 (Consultant LPN), and Witness 3 (Consultant RN) on 04/11/24. They acknowledged the findings.
2. Resident 9 was admitted to the facility in 08/2022 with diagnoses including neurocognitive disorder with Lewy bodies and dementia.The resident's most recent service plan, dated 03/07/24, and temporary service plans dated 03/08/24 and 03/29/24 were reviewed, observations were made, and staff were interviewed. The service plan was not reflective and/or did not provide clear direction to staff in the following areas: * Assistance with meals; * Behaviors related to food and beverage intake; and* Weight gain and weight loss.In addition, the service plan directed team members to place a cup in Resident 9's hand to encourage hydration. During lunch on 04/09/24, the resident was observed sitting at the table for the duration of the meal with no attempts to place a cup in his/her hand. The resident's table service was cleared with no liquids consumed.The need for service plans to be reflective of the resident's current care needs, provide clear instruction to staff, and for the facility to ensure the implementation of services was discussed with Staff 1 (Executive Director) and Witness 2 (Consultant LPN) on 04/11/24. They acknowledged the findings.
4. Resident 12 was admitted to the facility in 2018 with diagnoses including dementia. The resident's service plan dated 03/16/24 was reviewed, observations were made, and interviews with the staff were conducted. The resident's service plan was not reflective of his/her current needs and preferences in the following areas:*One on one feeding assistance.The need to ensure service plans were reflective of residents' current needs was discussed with Staff 28 (ED) and Witness 3 (Consultant RN) on 04/10/24. No additional information was provided.
Based on observation, interview, and record review, it was determined the facility failed to ensure service plans were reflective of residents' needs and preferences, provided clear direction regarding the delivery of services, and were implemented for 4 of 4 sampled residents (#s 9, 10, 11, and 12) whose service plans were reviewed. This is a repeat citation. Findings include, but are not limited to: 1. Resident 10 was admitted to the facility in 12/2021 with diagnoses including dementia.The current service plan, dated 02/23/24, and Temporary Service Plans from 01/11/24 to 04/08/24 were reviewed, and observations of Resident 10 and interviews with staff were completed during the survey. The service plan was not reflective of the resident's current status and did not provide clear direction to staff in the following areas:* Use of an air mattress;* Use of a two inch cushion while in wheelchair;* Emergency evacuation status;* Be in common areas with staff while awake;* Dressing to bilateral lower extremities status;* Conflicting directions for meal assistance;* One-on-one care and supervision requirements;* Transfer status;* Three staff person requirement for incontinent care status;* Mobility status including utilization of devices; and* Use of partial snap in dentures status.The need to ensure service plans were reflective of the resident's current needs and preferences and provided clear direction regarding the delivery of services was discussed with Staff 28 (ED) and Witness 2 (Consultant, LPN) on 04/11/24. They acknowledged the findings.

Based on interview and record review, it was determined the facility failed to ensure service plans were developed by a Service Planning Team which consisted of the resident, the resident's legal representative if applicable, any person of the resident's choice, the facility administrator or designee, and at least one other staff person who was familiar with or provided services to the resident, for 3 of 4 sampled residents (#s 3, 6, and 7) whose quarterly service plans were reviewed. Findings include, but are not limited to:Residents 3, 6, and 7's most recent service plans lacked documented evidence that a Service Planning Team reviewed and participated in the development of the service plans.The need to ensure service plans were developed by a Service Planning Team was discussed with Staff 1 (ED), Staff 2 (RN), Staff 3 (RCC), and Staff 6 (Consultant) on 09/11/23. They acknowledged the findings.

4. Resident 2 was admitted to the facility in 06/2023 with diagnoses including dementia. A review of the resident's clinical records, including progress notes and Temporary Service Plans (TSPs), showed the resident experienced the following short-term changes of condition: * Staff documented Resident 2 had behaviors and accused other residents of stealing his/her belongings on 06/22/23, 06/23/23, 06/27/23, and 07/03/23. The resident was observed during those times looking in other residents' rooms, yelling at other residents, and yelling at care staff. * A TSP dated 07/01/23 identified the resident, "[Y]elling and grabbing peers hands. Pulling, pushing, and yelling." * A second resident to resident incident occurred on 07/03/23 during dinner time. The facility monitored the incident for additional behaviors exhibited by Resident 2 through 07/11/23. Staff documented Resident 2's "PCP [was] notified of behaviors and resident to be placed on behavior monitoring on MAR at this time."* On 07/14/23, the resident was identified as having a resident to resident altercation.* On 07/21/23, Resident 2 was identified as having a resident to resident altercation.* On 07/25/23, the resident was put on alert charting for another resident to resident altercation. Staff documented, "Remove from alert charting at this time and add to behavior monitor each shift for tracking and documentation of resident behaviors."* A progress note, dated 07/25/23, revealed, "Resident is on alert for starting a new medication. Resident showing no signs of adverse effects." There was no indication of what medication Resident 2 had started. * On 08/20/23 and 08/26/23, progress notes revealed the resident did not receive lacosamide (a narcotic used to treat epilepsy).Staff 1 (ED) confirmed on 09/07/23 at 8:30 am, there was no documented evidence of behavior monitoring from the two above dates of 07/03/23 and 07/25/23. There was no documented evidence the facility determined and documented what actions or interventions were needed for the resident, communicated the actions or interventions to staff on each shift, and monitored the conditions with progress noted at least weekly through resolution for each of the resident's changes of condition.The need to ensure changes of condition were evaluated to determine what actions or interventions were needed, actions or interventions were communicated to staff on each shift, and conditions were monitored with progress noted at least weekly through resolution was discussed with Staff 1, Staff 5 (Contractor), Staff 6 (Consultant), and Staff 7 (RN Consultant) on 09/08/23. They acknowledged the findings.5. Resident 5 was admitted to the facility in 07/2023 with diagnoses including dementia and diabetes.A review of the resident's clinical records, including progress notes and Temporary Service Plans (TSPs) showed the resident experienced the following short-term changes of condition: * Falls on 07/09/23, 07/25/23, 08/04/23, 08/05/23, 08/09/23, and 08/24/23; and* On 07/25/23 the resident was not administered his/her morning dose of insulin.There was no documented evidence the facility determined and documented what actions or interventions were needed for the resident, communicated the actions or interventions to staff on each shift, and monitored the conditions with progress noted at least weekly through resolution for each of the changes of condition.The need to ensure changes of condition were evaluated to determine what actions or interventions were needed, actions or interventions were communicated to staff on each shift, and conditions were monitored with progress noted at least weekly through resolution was discussed with Staff 1, Staff 5 (Contractor), Staff 6 (Consultant), and Staff 7 (RN Consultant) on 09/08/23. They acknowledged the findings.
2. Resident 6 was admitted to the facility in 01/2023 with diagnoses including dementia and abnormal weight loss. A review of the resident's record, including weight records dated between 01/24/23 and 08/01/23, the most recent service plan and evaluation, Temporary Service Plans (TSPs), 08/01/23 through 09/05/23 MARs, incident reports, and progress notes dated between 06/04/23 and 09/05/23, interviews and observations with staff and the resident were conducted between 09/05/23 and 09/11/23 were reviewed. The resident experienced multiple changes of condition. a. Weight documentation reviewed between 01/13/23 and 09/01/23 noted the following:* 01/13/23: 103 pounds;* 01/24/23: 98.5 pounds;* 02/01/23: No weight;* 03/01/23: No weight;* 04/01/23: No weight; * 05/01/23: 90.4 pounds;* 06/01/23: 91.2 pounds;* 07/01/23: No weight, resident refused;* 08/01/23: 82.6 pounds; and * 09/01/23: Unable to weigh.From 01/13/23 to 06/01/23, Resident 6 sustained an 11.8 pound loss, which constituted an 11.5% loss in five months. On 06/20/23, a RN assessment for a significant change of condition for weight loss was completed and interventions were initiated. The Individual Service Plan Report, dated 06/22/23, provided the following weight loss interventions for staff to follow:* "Alert the nurse if meal/food consumption is poor [less than 50% of meals], meal refusals, coughing or choking with meals, or pocketing food";* "Encourage [the resident] to eat in an upright position, to eat slowly, and to chew each bite thoroughly before attempting to swallow";* "Invite, encourage and assist [Resident 6] to attend activities that serve refreshments. Encourage and offer snacks daily"; and* "Observe for and report to nurse any complaints of loss of appetite, refusal to eat, and weight loss."There was no documented evidence the facility monitored the resident consistent with his/her evaluated needs for the severe weight loss.A 07/01/23 progress note indicated Resident 6 was sleeping and refused to awaken to be weighed. There was no documented evidence that an additional attempt was made to weigh Resident 6 in 07/2023. From 05/01/23 to 08/01/23, Resident 6 continued to lose weight, and sustained a 7.8 pound loss, which constituted a severe 8.6% loss in three months. There was no documented evidence previous interventions were reviewed for effectiveness with each successive weight loss. Resident 6 was unable to be weighed during the survey secondary to inability to stand due to a left hip fracture. Observations of the resident between 09/05/23 and 09/11/23 showed the resident was unable to feed himself/herself. The resident's intake varied with multiple meals often less than 25%. The resident was provided a nutritional shake with meals during observations.During an interview on 09/07/23 at 10:20 am, Staff 9 (MT/CG) stated Resident 6 received nutritional shakes with meals, a pureed diet, one to one assistance with meals, had difficulty swallowing, and his/her intake varied greatly from meal to meal.There was no documented evidence of ongoing monitoring of the resident's weight, that additional weight loss was reported to the RN, or that interventions in place were evaluated for effectiveness and adjustments made to prevent additional weight loss. During an interview on 09/11/23 at 9:35 am, Staff 2 (RN) confirmed no RN assessment or service plan update had been completed for the additional weight loss. The facility's failure to evaluate Resident 6's ongoing severe weight loss, determine what actions or interventions were needed, communicate the actions or interventions to staff, and refer the additional weight loss to the RN for further assessment put Resident 6 at risk for further weight loss. b. The resident experienced multiple short term changes of condition without documented actions or interventions needed for the resident, communication of the determined actions or interventions to staff on all shifts, and/or progress noted at least weekly through resolution for the following:* Falls on 06/10/23, 06/11/23, and 08/25/23;* Skin tear to left lower extremity on 06/25/23;* Discontinuation of PRN risperidone on 07/23/23;* New antibiotic, Keflex on 08/27/23;* New sore on bottom on 08/28/23;* Green/yellow leakage from head wound on 09/02/23;* Lump on left thigh on 09/02/23; and* New pain medication and antibiotic on 09/06/23.During an interview on 09/07/23 at 10:20 am, Staff 9 (MT/CG) stated a hospice provider was involved and monitoring his/her wounds, and they were aware of the greenish-yellow leakage from the scalp. She reported the facility process for changes of condition was for the MT to place resident on alert charting in the progress notes.The need to ensure changes of condition were evaluated to determine what actions or interventions were needed, actions or interventions were communicated to staff on each shift, and conditions were monitored with progress noted at least weekly through resolution was discussed with Staff 1 (ED), Staff 5 (Contractor), Staff 6 (Consultant), and Staff 7 (RN Consultant) on 09/08/23 and 09/11/23. They acknowledged the findings. 3. Resident 7 was admitted to the facility in 03/2023 with diagnoses including Alzheimer's disease, early onset.a. Review of the resident's clinical records, including progress notes and Temporary Service Plans (TSPs), showed the resident experienced the following short-term changes of condition: * 06/11/23: Fall with skin tear; * 06/14/23: Fall without injury;* 08/05/23: Fall without injury; and* 08/13/23: Fall with injury.The record lacked documentation of actions or interventions needed for the resident, communication of the determined actions or interventions to staff on all shifts, and/or progress noted at least weekly through resolution.b. Resident 7's weight records were reviewed and revealed the following:03/14/23: 122.4 pounds;04/13/23: 116.4 pounds;05/11/23: 116 pounds;06/14/23: 114 pounds;07/13/23: 115.2 pounds; 08/03/23: 113 pounds; and08/10/23: 111.6 pounds. From 03/14/23 to 04/13/23, Resident 7 had a weight loss of 6 pounds or 5% of his/her body weight in one month. This change in weight was considered a significant weight loss which required an RN assessment. The facility failed to evaluate the resident and refer to the facility nurse.The surveyor requested Resident 7 be weighed at time of survey. On 09/07/23, Staff 9 (MT/CG) reported Resident 7's weight was 117.8 pounds.During lunch on 09/05/23 and 09/07/23 and breakfast on 09/08/23, staff were observed encouraging the resident to eat his/her meal. When the resident did not want to eat lunch on 09/07/23, staff brought him/her a nutritional shake.During an interview on 09/6/23 at 10:35 am, Staff 15 (MT/CG) confirmed Resident 7 received nutritional shakes with meals and his/her appetite was improved with offering finger foods.The need to ensure changes of condition were evaluated to determine what actions or interventions were needed, actions or interventions were communicated to staff on each shift, or conditions monitored with progress noted at least weekly through resolution was discussed with Staff 1 (ED), Staff 5 (Contractor), Staff 6 (Consultant), and Staff 7 (RN Consultant) on 09/08/23. They acknowledged the findings.
Based on observation, interview, and record review, it was determined the facility failed to ensure residents who had significant changes of condition were evaluated, referred to the facility RN and service plans updated, failed to monitor and document what actions or interventions were needed for short-term changes of condition, including resident-specific instructions communicated to staff on each shift and made part of the resident's record with weekly progress noted through resolution for 5 of 5 sampled residents (#s 2, 3, 5, 6, and 7) who experienced changes of condition. Resident's 3 and 6 experienced severe weight loss. Findings include, but are not limited to:1. Resident 3 was admitted to the facility in 01/2021 with diagnoses including dementia and a history of pubis fracture and pain.Review of the resident's clinical records including progress notes, physician's orders, quarterly evaluations and weight records, showed the resident experienced the following significant change of condition: a. Weight documentation reviewed between 03/03/23 and 08/03/23 noted the following:* 03/03/23: 117 pounds;* 04/03/23: 116 pounds; * 05/03/23: No weight;* 06/03/23: 113.5 pounds;* 07/03/23: 112 pounds; and* 08/03/23: 106.2 pounds. Between 07/03/23 and 08/03/23, Resident 3 lost 5.8 pounds or 5.2% body weight in one month, representing significant weight loss and a significant change of condition. There was no documented evidence the facility evaluated the weight loss, determined what actions or intervention was needed for the resident, and referred the weight loss to the RN. Observations of the resident between 09/06/23 and 09/08/23 showed the resident was able to feed him/herself but would use their fingers to select finger foods and needed encouragement and cueing to eat. The resident did not seek out or ask for food items during survey observations but would accept items from staff when offered. During room visits on 09/06/23 at 12:10 pm, 09/07/23 at 9:45 am and 11:15 am, and 09/08/23 at 8:20 am, the resident was in bed and did not have any fluids available within reach.On 09/06/23, a request was made to obtain the resident's current weight. On 09/07/23, facility staff obtained the resident's weight and it was reported to be 92.4 pounds. Between 08/03/23 and 09/07/23, Resident 3 lost an additional 13.8 pounds or 12.21% body weight resulting in severe weight loss and a subsequent significant change of condition.The facility's failure to evaluate Resident 3's significant weight loss, determine what actions or interventions were needed, communicate the actions or interventions to staff, and refer the weight loss to the RN, resulted in severe weight loss. During a discussion relating to the resident's weight loss on 09/07/23 at 10:05 am, Staff 5 (Contractor) stated "we will start providing [the resident] protein shakes from the kitchen three times a day and update the doctor."b. Review of the resident's clinical records showed the resident experienced the following short term changes of condition: Resident 3 experienced four falls during the review period on:* On 06/30/23, the resident had complaints of back pain and was placed on alert monitoring;* On 08/08/23, the resident was complaining of hip pain after a fall and was placed on alert to monitor;* On 08/10/23, progress notes documented the resident had been found on the floor following another fall. The notes indicated the resident had been trying to walk to the bathroom when s/he fell; and* On 08/11/23, the resident sustained another fall when s/he was found on the floor next to the bed.There was no documented evidence the falls were evaluated to determine actions or interventions needed for the resident to prevent further falls. In addition, while the resident was placed on alert monitoring for pain related to falls, there was no evaluation to determine whether the resident's mobility had been affected.c. Review of the resident's clinical records showed the resident experienced the following additional short term changes of condition: * On 08/12/23 staff documented, "Resident is being placed on alert for pain in [his/her peri] area and not being able to turn with [his/her] left leg... unable to move [his/her] left leg to walk"; * Discontinuation of hydrocodone PRN pain medication on 08/22/23, which resident had been receiving at least weekly; and * "Symptoms of a urinary tract infection" on 08/22/23. The record lacked documentation of actions or interventions needed for the resident, communication of the determined actions or interventions to staff on all shifts, and/or progress noted at least weekly through resolution.The need to determine and document what actions or interventions were needed for residents who experienced short term changes of condition and ensure residents who experienced significant changes of condition were evaluated and referred to the RN was discussed with Staff 1 (ED) and Staff 5 on 09/08/23. They acknowledged the findings.

2. Resident 6 was admitted to the facility in 01/2023 with diagnoses including dementia and "abnormal weight loss." a. Weight documentation reviewed between 03/01/23 and 09/01/23 noted the following:* 03/01/23: No weight;* 04/01/23: No weight; * 05/01/23: 90.4 pounds;* 06/01/23: 91.2 pounds;* 07/01/23: No weight, resident refused;* 08/01/23: 82.6 pounds; and * 09/01/23: Unable to weigh.Between 05/01/23 and 08/01/23, Resident 6 lost 7.8 pounds or 8.6% body weight in three months, which represented a severe weight loss and a significant change of condition. There was no documented evidence the facility RN conducted an assessment for the significant weight loss, which included findings, resident status and interventions made as a result. During an interview on 09/11/23 at 9:35 am, Staff 2 (RN) confirmed no RN assessment or service plan update had been completed for the severe weight loss. Refer to C270, example 2a.b. An 08/25/23 progress note indicated the resident had a fall, was sent to the hospital and subsequently diagnosed with a left hip fracture and a head laceration. Upon return from the hospital, subsequent progress notes indicated the resident required assistance with repositioning, one to one assistance with meals, had difficulty swallowing, and was bedbound.The hip fracture and change in ADL assistance constituted a significant change of condition and required an RN assessment. During an interview on 09/11/23 at 9:40 am, Staff 2 confirmed no assessment had been completed for the significant change of condition. The need to ensure all significant changes of condition were assessed by an RN and the licensed nurse participated on the service planning team or reviewed the service plan with date and signature within 48 hours was discussed with Staff 1 (ED), Staff 2, Staff 3 (RCC), and Staff 6 (Consultant) on 09/11/23 . They acknowledged the findings, and no additional documentation was provided.Refer to C260, example 1. 3. Resident 7 was admitted to the facility in 03/2023 with diagnoses including Alzheimer's disease with early onset.Resident 7's weight records were reviewed and revealed the following:03/14/23: 122.4 pounds;04/13/23: 116.4 pounds;05/11/23: 116 pounds;06/14/23: 114 pounds;07/13/23: 115.2 pounds; 08/03/23: 113 pounds; and08/10/23: 111.6 pounds. From 03/14/23 to 04/13/23, Resident 7 had a weight loss of 6 pounds or 5% of his/her body weight in one month. This change in weight was considered a significant weight loss which required an RN assessment. During an interview on 09/11/23 at 9:40 am, Staff 2 (RN) confirmed no assessment had been completed for Resident 7's significant weight loss.The need to ensure significant changes of condition were assessed by a RN and included findings, resident status and interventions made as a result of the assessment was discussed with Staff 1 (ED), Staff 2, Staff 3 (RCC), and Staff 6 (Consultant) on 09/11/23. They acknowledged the findings, and no additional documentation was provided.
Based on observation, interview and record review, it was determined the facility failed to conduct an RN assessment which included findings, resident status, and interventions made as a result of the assessment for 3 of 3 sampled residents (#s 3, 6 and 7) who experienced significant changes of condition. Findings include, but are not limited to: 1. Resident 3 was admitted to the facility in 01/2021 with diagnoses including dementia, hypertension and a history of pain.Weight documentation reviewed between 03/03/23 and 08/03/23 noted the following:* 03/03/23: 117 pounds;* 04/03/23: 116 pounds; * 05/03/23: No weight;* 06/03/23: 113.5 pounds;* 07/03/23: 112 pounds; and* 08/03/23: 106.2 pounds. Between 07/03/23 and 08/03/23, Resident 3 lost 5.8 pounds or 5.2% body weight in one month, representing significant weight loss and a significant change of condition. A review Resident 3's most recent quarterly evaluation, dated 08/09/23, indicated the resident had no evidence of "dehydration or unexplained weight losses" within the last 90 days. There was no documented evidence the facility RN conducted an assessment which included findings, resident status and interventions made as a result. The RN failed to assess Resident 3's significant weight loss, determine what actions or interventions were needed, communicate the actions or interventions to staff, which resulted in severe weight loss. Refer to C270, example 3a.The need to ensure an RN assessment was conducted following significant changes of condition was discussed with Staff 1 (ED), Staff 2 (RN), Staff 3 (RCC), and Staff 6 (Consultant) on 09/08/23 and 09/11/23. They acknowledged the findings.

Based on observation, interview and record review, it was determined the facility failed to ensure information and interventions provided by on-site and off-site outside providers were communicated to staff and service plans adjusted if necessary for 2 of 3 sampled residents (#s 3 and 5) who received outside services. Findings include, but are not limited to:1. Resident 5 was admitted to the facility in 07/2023 with diagnoses including dementia. Progress notes, which had outside provider documentation transcribed within them, dated 07/06/23 through 09/04/23, revealed the following home health recommendations lacked evidence they were communicated to staff and the plan of care was updated when necessary:* 07/06/23 - "loves puzzles, needs extra cues and encouragement to attend activities, is a social person, enjoys games, has a Nintendo Switch [hand held electronic gaming device], nicknames are Big Bear and Freddy Flinstone"; * 07/07/23 - "call ElderPlace for any concerns or changes of condition";* 07/10/23 - "may benefit from a perimeter mattress";* 07/13/23 - RN left the number to call and documented, "call ElderPlace with any questions or concerns";* 07/27/23 - "replace dressing on knee abrasions if it comes off, call ElderPlace for increased redness, drainage, fever, pain";* 08/10/23 - "watch for left hand bruising or bleeding, notify for signs or symptoms of infection to left knee, monitor for latent injuries or changes in ADL's related to fall"; and * 08/24/23 - "keep wounds covered, if dressing comes off or soiled, cleanse wound and cover with dressing." The facility lacked documented evidence the information and interventions were communicated to direct care staff. The need to ensure staff were informed of on-site outside provider information and interventions and the service plan adjusted if necessary was reviewed with Staff 1 (ED), Staff 2 (RN), Staff 3 (RCC), and Staff 6 (Consultant) on 09/11/23. They acknowledged the findings.
2. Resident 3 was admitted to the facility in 01/2021 with diagnoses including dementia and a history of pubis fracture. Resident 3 was identified during the acuity interview on 09/06/23 as receiving physical therapy.
