(1) The residential care or assisted living facility must provide a minimum scope of services as follows: (a) Three daily nutritious, palatable meals with snacks available seven days a week, in accordance with the recommended dietary allowances found in the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) guidelines, including seasonal fresh fruit and fresh vegetables; (A) Modified special diets that are appropriate to residents' needs and choices. The facility must encourage residents' involvement in developing menus. (B) Menus must be prepared at least one week in advance, and must be made available to all residents. Meal substitutions must be of similar nutritional value if a resident refuses a food that is served. Residents must be informed in advance of menu changes. (C) Food must be prepared and served in accordance with OAR 333-150-0000 (Food Sanitation Rules).
Findings
Based on observation, record review and interview, it was determined the facility failed to maintain the kitchenette in good repair and in a sanitary manner. The facility failed to ensure hot foods were held and served at appropriate temperatures in accordance with Food Sanitation Rules, OAR 333-150-000. Findings include, but are not limited to:
Observation of the main facility kitchen, memory care kitchenette and lunch meal service on 09/25/25 from 11:15 am thru 1:30 pm revealed the following:
a. An accumulation of food spills, splatters, loose food and trash debris, dirt, dust, black matter and grease was visible on or underneath the following:
* Reach in refrigerator in unit kitchenette
* Oven in unit kitchenette
* Flooring in unit kitchenette
b. The following areas needed repair:
* Red temperature control cart used for hot holding and transportation to unit was noted with a damaged door seal creating a ½ - 1 inch gap in the door where hot air was felt exiting the unit. Multiple puncture areas in and around the cart were observed. Hot air was felt exiting the unit around these puncture points. The gauge to display the internal hot holding temperature was not operational to inform of what temperature the food was being held at.
c. Reach in refrigerator in the unit kitchenette was observed and did not contain a thermometer to ensure resident food was stored at appropriate cold food storage temperatures. Staff in unit acknowledged there was a log posted on the refrigerator. Surveyor reviewed the log and it was blank. Memory care unit staff acknowledged she was not checking or logging the refrigerator temperatures and did not know who was supposed to. Staff 2 (Culinary Services Director) acknowledged that the care staff was supposed to be checking and logging the refrigerator temperatures in the unit kitchenette.
d. A tray of plated cake desserts were observed transported from the main kitchen to the unit uncovered and not protected from potential contamination.
f. Memory care lunch service was observed and began in the main kitchen at 11:15 am. Plates were dished up in the main kitchen and placed in the Red hot box cart. The cart was taken to the memory care unit at 11:44 am. At approximately 11:50 am, staff began checking the temperatures for the food items for service on that day. Three of the four hot items were noted less than the 135 degrees required for hot holding temperatures and included (turkey and vegetable gravy at 120 degrees, Mashed potatoes at 123 degrees and peas at 114 degrees).
Meal service temperature logs from 09/19/25 thru the lunch meal of that day were reviewed and documented 66/78 hot menu items that were found at temperatures less than 135 degrees. Thirty-two hot food items were documented at 110 degrees or less, and seven hot food items were documented as served at temperatures less than 100 degrees. Care staff was interviewed and stated that they were ok to served the food items as long as they were 80 degrees or more. When asked what temperatures were she looking for to be considered hot enough they stated between 80-120 degrees. Staff was not able to discuss what the appropriate hot holding temperature was.
Staff 2 was interviewed and acknowledged the facility’s standard of hot holding was 140 degrees. Staff 2 acknowledged the items in the cart observed at that meal were not at appropriate hot holding temperatures. Surveyor reviewed the food service temperature logs for the last week and acknowledged service temperatures served at 110 or less are not palatable and not appropriate.
At 12:30 pm, Staff 1 (Campus Executive Director) was informed of the observed hot holding temperatures and acknowledged the concern identified. Staff 1 also acknowledged food service temperatures at 110 degrees and/or less would not be palatable. Staff 1 was asked to provide resident council minutes for the last three months to review. Staff 1 indicated that the facility was not conducting resident council for the memory care unit. Staff 1 acknowledged the requirement for residents to have input into menus and food service program. Staff 1 and Staff 2 acknowledged the other identified areas outlined above.

* On 03/03/25, the resident was sent to the emergency room, at the direction of the physician, for evaluation due to altered mental status and not drinking or eating.
The resident’s 12/06/24 signed physician orders showed the following pain medications:
* Acetaminophen 500 mg tablet, take one tablet twice daily PRN for pain or fever. Start with acetaminophen “and or” Ibuprofen before giving narcotic pain medication.
* Diclofenac sodium 1% gel, apply 4 gm topically to affected area four times daily PRN for back pain.

* Acetaminophen was administered 21 times for pain levels of 5 out of 10 pain and higher.
* The pain level noted on the MAR was 8 of 10 or higher on 12 of the 21 occasions.
* Diclofenac gel was applied 13 times; no pain level was noted and five of the 13 occasions no acetaminophen had been administered prior.
* Oxycodone was administered on 15 occasions, plus two additional occasions that were not recorded on the MAR but were documented on the narcotic disposition log. No pain levels were noted for any of the administrations.
* Six of the 15 occasions oxycodone was administered, exception notes on the MAR indicated the medication was not effective. No other information was documented about controlling the resident’s pain.
In interviews with staff between 02/25/25 and 02/28/25 the following was determined:
Staff 10, 11 and 15 (MTs) indicated the resident had declined over the last several weeks. The resident had more complaints of pain, was eating less due to the pain, had nausea and stayed in bed far more than s/he used to. The staff indicated the resident had scheduled and PRN medications for his/her pain, but they were not always effective. Staff 11 stated they had to give the resident his/her PRN Tylenol, Diclofenac gel and scheduled Lidocaine patch and determine they were ineffective, before the resident could get his/her PRN Oxycodone.
Staff 17, 20 and 22 (CGs) indicated the resident was able to eat on own, could also transfer and walk on his/her own but needed more assistance over the last few weeks. The staff indicated the resident had been isolating in his/her apartment and refused to get out of bed. Staff 20 stated the resident had only come out of his/her room a few times since the beginning of the month. Staff 22 further indicated the resident’s meal intake recently was very poor; the resident had a lot of pain and was frequently nauseous as well. The staff stated the resident would refuse care, meals and to get up because of the pain.
Staff 21 (CG) indicated the resident had not come out of his/her room much at all over the last few weeks. The resident was not eating well, had a lot of complaints of pain and not feeling well. The staff stated the resident was able to complete some ADLs on his/her own, but it was safer to have at least the standby assistance if not a one person assist. Staff 21 stated when the resident had pain s/he refused almost everything offered.
The resident’s increased behaviors, increased pain and overall decline in condition was not monitored with interventions implemented, determined effectiveness of those interventions, resident specific instructions provided to staff to maintain resident comfort and safety. Staff were given unclear parameters on when to medicate the resident with what medications, for what pain level and what to do when the medication did not relieve the resident’s pain. Additionally, a lack of onsite RN oversight affected how quickly the resident received services and interventions to address the behaviors, infection and pain, putting the resident at unnecessary risk for harm.

(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.

Findings
Based on observation, interview, and record review, it was determined the facility failed to ensure residents who experienced significant changes of condition were assessed by an RN and/or the assessments were completed in a timely manner and included findings, resident status, and interventions made as a result of the assessment, for 4 of 4 sampled residents (#s 1, 2, 3, and 4) who experienced significant changes in condition. Resident 2 experienced a significant increase in pain and an overall decline in condition which caused decreased appetite and self isolation with minimal intervention. Findings include, but are not limited to:
1. Resident 2 was admitted to the facility in 11/2021 with diagnoses including Alzheimer’s disease.
Multiple observations of the resident between 02/25/25 and 02/28/25 showed the resident in bed. The resident did not leave his/her apartment. Staff provided all meals to the apartment. The resident inconsistently responded to a knock and greeting, was soundly asleep on all but one observation. The resident was observed on one occasion with his/her eyes open, lying in bed. The resident immediately became distressed upon greeting, calling for his/her children, stating in pain, “please help.”
Staff indicated the resident refused most of his/her meals or would only eat a few bites. The staff further indicated the resident had experienced increased confusion, behaviors and pain over the last few weeks and had not been getting out of bed.
Progress notes dated 01/16/25 through 03/03/25 indicated the resident had increased pain, behaviors and confusion. The resident had a decrease in his/her intake for meals as well. The resident had multiple trips to the emergency room for evaluation related to blood in urine, blood in bowel movement and increased pain. The resident was treated for a bladder infection, urinary tract infection and inflammation of the colon. The resident’s physician ordered additional imaging and made changes to courses of multiple antibiotics.
A late entry note dated 02/25/25 was in the progress notes and was labeled significant change of condition, altered mental status and decline in cognition. The note did not reference a specific date of the decline the late entry referred to. The progress note indicated the resident had experienced a “marked decline in cognition in the last 90 days.” The resident received treatment for bladder infections recently; the cognition change did not seem to be related to the infections but may be related to a new antidepressant medication.
In interviews with staff between 02/25/25 and 02/28/25 the following was determined:
Staff 10, 11 and 15 (MTs) indicated the resident had declined over the last several weeks. The resident had more complaints of pain, eating less due to the pain, nausea and staying in bed far more than s/he used to. The staff indicated the resident has scheduled and PRN medications for his/her pain, but they were not always effective. Staff 11 stated they had to give the resident his/her PRN Tylenol, Diclofenac gel and scheduled Lidocaine patch and determine they were ineffective before the resident can get his/her PRN Oxycodone.
Staff 17, 20 and 22 (CGs) indicated the resident was able to eat on own, could also transfer and walk on his/her own but had needed more assistance over the last few weeks. The staff indicated the resident had been isolating in his/her apartment and refused to get out of bed. Staff 20 stated the resident had only come out of his/her room a few times since the beginning of the month. Staff 22 further indicated the resident’s meal intake recently was very poor, the resident had a lot of pain and was frequently nauseous as well.
Staff 21 (CG) indicated the resident had not come out of his/her room much at all over the last few weeks. The resident was not eating well, has a lot of complaints of pain and not feeling well. The staff stated the resident was able to complete some ADLs on his/her own, but it was safer to have at least the standby assistance if not a one person assist.
Witness 1 (RN Consultant) indicated he had only recently joined the facility. He estimated he had been working on resident issues for about a week. Witness 1 would also be training the permanent RN once hired. He was scheduled to be onsite once a week.
Staff 1 (ED) and Staff 6 (Memory Care Coordinator) indicated the significant changes of condition were behind in completion but Witness 1 was working on them currently. Staff 6 further indicated she and Witness 1 had not reviewed and updated service plans yet. Staff 1 indicated Witness 1 was new to the facility while they hired a new permanent RN. The facility had been without their full time RN for about a month.
The resident was not interviewable due to cognition and anxiety.
The facility failed to ensure an RN assessment was completed timely for the resident’s decline in cognition and altered mental status which included increased pain and confusion. The late entry assessment, completed on 02/25/25, did not have a date referenced as to when the change of condition occurred, failed to reflect resident status and interventions made as a result of the assessment.
The need to ensure an RN assessment was completed which documented findings, resident status, and interventions made as a result of the assessment was discussed with Staff 1, Staff 6 and Staff 24 (Regional Director of Operations) on 03/03/25. The staff acknowledged the findings.
2. Resident 3 was admitted to the facility in 01/2024 with diagnoses including dementia.
a. Weight records, dated 08/02/24 through 10/09/24, progress notes and physician communications dated 11/01/24 through 02/25/25, indicated the resident experienced the following:
* The resident’s weight on 08/02/24 was 155.6 pounds. The resident’s next recorded weight was 141.2 pounds on 09/26/24. The resident experienced a severe weight loss of 14.4 pounds or 9.25% in less than two months.
* The resident’s weight on 09/26/24 was 141.2 pounds. The resident’s next recorded weight was 151.6 pounds on 10/09/24 The resident experienced a severe weight gain of 10.4 pounds or 6.86% in less than two weeks.
The resident’s weight fluctuated up and down between 141 pounds and 146 pounds between December 2024 and 02/25/25. The resident’s most recent weight on 02/23/25 was 143 pounds.
Multiple observations of the resident between 02/25/25 and 02/28/25 showed the resident could direct some of his/her own care and ADLs. The resident required one staff assistance for a portion of his/her ADLs. The resident attempted to be independent with food and fluid intake. The resident had severe tremors and shaking of his/her arms which interfered with mealtime. Staff provided assistance and specialized utensils as the resident would allow. The resident ate between 50% and 75% of the meals observed. Fluid intake was closer to 100%. The resident utilized lidded cups with extended straws. Additionally, the resident was provided health shakes with each meal and fluids were encouraged throughout the shift.
In interviews completed between 02/25/25 and 02/28/25, it was determined:
Staff 11 (MT) and Staff 20 (CG) indicated the resident fed himself/herself most of the time. The resident preferred to be independent and would refuse offers unless shaking was significant. The staff indicated staff would help the resident feed himself/herself using hand over hand when s/he would allow. The resident was able to drink more efficiently even when shaking was severe due to type of cup used.
Staff 22 (CG) stated the resident had weighted utensils to help with meal independence while shaking. The resident did not like to use the utensils so would frequently refuse. The staff indicated the resident did pretty well with most meals and staff were also available to help feed the resident if s/he was willing to accept the help.
Witness 1 (RN Consultant) indicated he had only recently joined the facility. He estimated he had been working on resident issues for about a week. Witness 1 would also be training the permanent RN once hired. He was scheduled to be onsite once a week.
Staff 1 (ED) and Staff 6 (Memory Care Coordinator) indicated the significant changes of condition were behind in completion but Witness 1 was working on them currently. Staff 6 further indicated she and Witness 1 had not reviewed and updated service plans yet. Staff 1 indicated Witness 1 was new to the facility while they hired a new permanent RN. The facility had been without their full time RN for about a month. Staff 1 and Staff 6 were not aware of the resident’s significant weight changes.
The resident indicated s/he received plenty to eat and drink and could get help when s/he needed it. When asked about the special utensils the resident indicated s/he did not need them.
The facility failed to ensure an RN assessment was completed for the significant weight loss and significant weight gain from August 2024 to October 2024 which documented findings, resident status, and interventions made as a result of the assessment.
b. The resident was identified during the acuity interview on 02/25/25 to have a stage 2 pressure ulcer on his/her buttocks.

* On 01/10/25, home health noted the area was resolved.
* On 02/15/25, home health wound care was restarted. The progress notes do not specify when the area on the resident’s buttocks reopened.
Staff 1 and Staff 6 were unable to locate any significant changes of condition completed by the previous RN regarding the resident’s skin breakdown.
The need to ensure an RN assessment was completed which documented findings, resident status, and interventions made as a result of the assessment was discussed with Staff 1, Staff 6 and Staff 24 (Regional Director of Operations) on 03/03/25. The staff acknowledged the findings.
3. Resident 1 moved into the community in 02/2024 with diagnoses including dementia and type 1 diabetes.
The resident's monthly weights dated 09/18/24 through 02/17/25 were reviewed, observations were made, and interviews with staff were conducted during the survey.

Observations and interviews during the survey identified the resident was independent with meals. S/he ate 75-100% of breakfast and lunch from 02/25/25 through 02/28/25.
During an interview on 03/03/25, Staff 6 (Memory Care Coordinator) reported at that time the weight gain was the nurse’s responsibility to monitor weights, however that nurse no longer worked at the facility. Staff 6 was unable to find any documentation of an RN assessment for the significant change of condition.
On 03/03/25 the need to ensure the facility RN completed an assessment for all residents who experienced significant changes of condition was discussed with Staff 1 (ED), Staff 6, and Staff 24 (Regional Director of Operations). They acknowledged the findings.
4. Resident 4 moved into the community in 01/2024 with diagnoses including dementia and anxiety.
Review of the resident’s weights since moving into the community identified the resident had experienced a 12.8 pound weight gain from 01/23/25 to 02/11/25, which constituted a severe 9.7% weight gain in 19 days.
Observations and interviews during the survey identified the resident was independent coming to the dining room and with self-feeding, requiring no meal assistance. S/he ate 75-100% of breakfast and lunch from 02/25/25 through 02/28/25.

Findings
Based on observation, interview and record review, it was determined the facility failed to coordinate on-site health services with outside providers, review recommendations, and update the resident's service plan with new interventions as needed, for 1 of 4 sampled residents (#3) who received home health services. Findings include, but are not limited to:
Resident 3 was admitted to the facility in 01/2024 with diagnoses including dementia.
During the acuity interview on 02/25/25, Resident 3 was identified as receiving outside provider services related to wound clinic treatments and home health nursing for wound care.
Observations of the resident, interviews with staff, review of the service plan dated 12/24/24, progress notes and outside provider notes dated 11/01/24 through 02/25/25 were completed. The resident had a stage 2 pressure ulcer to his/her bottom. The area was first noted on 11/04/24, resolved on 01/10/25 and was noted to reopen on 02/15/25.
a. Multiple wound care visit notes between 12/20/24 and 01/10/25 were not available in the resident’s record.
b. Home health nursing notes showed the following recommendations:
* On 12/20/24, it was noted wound care visits would continue twice a week. Wound care of Cleanse with wound wash, pat dry, apply wound gel to wound bed, cover with a 3x3 border foam, change twice a week. Barrier ointment to buttocks and groin twice a day.
* On 02/15/25, showed wound care twice per week to be done by agency, please encourage good dietary intake with increased protein to facilitate wound healing. Staff to maintain perineal cleanliness and dryness with every two hour toileting, if the resident was sitting or lying for extended times please rotate/change position every two hours as well.
* On 02/18/25, indicated continue with wound care as ordered, nutritional supplements and frequent offloading as able.
* On 02/21/25, indicated staff to change dressing to coccyx if it became soiled or dislodged.
* On 02/24/25, indicated “Please keep covered as long as possible for protection.”
There was no indication the recommendations were communicated with staff and implemented.
In interviews between 02/25/25 and 02/28/25, the following was determined:
Staff 10 and 15 (MTs) indicated they were unaware of any orders for treatment of the pressure ulcer on the resident’s bottom. The staff described that the area was closer to the inner portion of the resident’s buttocks crease.
Staff 11 stated if she had verbally been told a few options for bandages. Staff 11 indicated there were no active orders for dressing changes that she was aware of.
Staff 6 (Memory Care Coordinator) indicated she was unable to locate any orders for dressing changes or treatments other than the resident’s Desitin cream. Staff 6 had no additional information regarding the absence of wound information on the resident’s MAR/TAR.
The need to ensure on-going coordination of care recommendations were implemented was discussed with Staff 1 (ED), Staff 6 (Memory Care Coordinator) and Staff 24 (Regional Director of Operations) on 03/03/25. The staff acknowledged the findings.

(1) MEDICATION AND TREATMENT ADMINISTRATION SYSTEMS. The facility must have safe medication and treatment administration systems in place that are approved by a pharmacist consultant, registered nurse, or physician.(a) The administrator is responsible for ensuring adequate professional oversight of the medication and treatment administration system.
Findings
Based on observation, interview, and record review, it was determined the facility failed to ensure a safe medication system and failed to ensure adequate professional oversight. Findings include, but are not limited to:
1. During the relicensure survey, conducted 02/25/25 through 03/03/25, the facility failed to ensure a safe medication and treatment system, and administrative oversight was found to be ineffective based on deficiencies in the following areas:
C 302: Systems: Tracking Controlled Substances;
C 303: Systems: Medication and Treatment Orders;
C 310: Systems: Medication Administration; and
C 330: Systems: Psychotropic Medications.
Failure to ensure a safe medication system and to ensure adequate professional oversight based on deficiencies related to medication administration was discussed with Staff 1 (ED), Staff 6 (Memory Care Coordinator) and Staff 24 (Regional Director of Operations) on 03/03/25. The staff acknowledged the findings.
2. General observations of the medication room on 02/25/25 and 02/26/25 showed:
* Two expired bottles of bowel medications were located in a drawer.
* Loose medication cards were observed on top of the refrigerator to be returned to the pharmacy. The packs were tossed near the back of the refrigerator and contained no special labeling to indicate they were a return.
* Two bottles, one bowel medication and one stomach medication were also noted to be on top of the refrigerator for return, no special labeling or storage was noted.
* Six medications cards were stacked in the paper tray on the counter by the printer. Two of the cards were empty and four of the cards had medication in them: acetaminophen and quetiapine (psychotropic medication).
Staff 10 (MT), who was in the room, stated the cards had been there since the beginning of her shift and that she wasn’t sure why they were there. She acknowledged the cards with medications should be in the medication cart.
3. 01/21/25 progress note for Resident 4 documented, “When going to give resident there [sic] normal medication this morning it was missing from the cart. Bottle was discovered on paper holding shelf by printer. Needing an update on the resident’s medication if not taking Levothyroxine.” On 02/27/25 the surveyor requested that this be investigated. In an interview on 3/03/25 Staff 6 (Memory Care Coordinator) reported she had spoken with the MT who had written the note and that it was a bottle of levothyroxine that was found on the paper holding shelf.
4. On 02/26/25 during the routine investigation of staff training, it was identified that a MT administering medications and treatments independently did not have documented evidence of demonstrated competencies of medication tasks being performed. The sample was expanded to include all MTs administering medications in the facility and it was identified that four of 13 MTs did not have evidence of demonstrated competencies of medication tasks being performed.
An immediate plan of correction of requested and received from Staff 1 (ED) on 02/26/25 at 3:39 pm.
5. A controlled substance review for two sampled residents showed multiple active medication cards for the same medication. Scheduled pain and psychotropic medications were being administered from scheduled cards and PRN medication cards. Labels on the scheduled cards reflected only the scheduled order and PRN medication cards reflected only the PRN order. Staff were unclear where they had recorded different administrations, from the scheduled and PRN medication cards as they were used interchangeably regardless of the order label on the card. When tracking the use of the controlled substances, the documentation located on the MAR and disposition log, staff had difficulty finding the location adminstrations were recorded.
Documentation of the administration of the controlled medications was inconsistent on the disposition log. The PRNs were not identified as PRNs on the log. A portion of the staff were documenting administration times in regular time without any indication if the dose was given in the AM or the PM.
A controlled substance audit was completed on 03/03/25 by Staff 1 (ED) and Staff 24 (Regional Director of Operations). The staff completed a full audit of the count for all controlled medications to ensure the counts were accurate based on the inconsistent documentation by staff. Staff 1 and Staff 24 found the counts to be accurate. They were unable to determine exactly why staff were not following facility policy related to the tracking and documentation of controlled medications.
6. Review of sampled resident treatment records showed staff were not documenting treatments to resident skin breakdown and not monitoring resident’s skin and recording treatments on the MAR/TAR related to two sampled residents.
The need to ensure a safe medication and treatment system was discussed with Staff 1, Staff 6, and Staff 24 on 03/03/25. The survey team requested a plan to correct the medication system concerns.
Staff 1 and Staff 24’s response to the plan of correction request included completion of a controlled medication audit. Medication Technician training had already been scheduled to occur on 03/05/25. Staff 1 reached out to their contract pharmacy to have a pharmacist come in ahead of schedule and complete a medication review. Staff 24 had additional online trainings assigned to all medication technicians and implemented ongoing competency checks to be done currently and redone each quarter. Staff 1 also indicated audits would be completed daily and weekly around different aspects of the medication system to determine staff compliance.
Refer to C270 and Z155.

Based on observation, interview and record review, it was determined the facility failed to ensure physician orders were carried out as prescribed, and written, signed physician or other legally recognized practitioner orders were documented in the residents’ facility records for all medications and treatments the facility was responsible to administer for 2 of 5 sampled residents (#s 1 and 5) whose orders were reviewed. Findings include, but are not limited to:
1. Resident 1 moved into the community in 02/2024 with diagnoses including dementia and type 1 diabetes.
Resident 1’s MAR dated 02/01/25 through 02/25/25, and corresponding prescriber orders were reviewed. The following was identified.
The resident had a physician’s order for the facility to apply Baza Protect 12% cream after toileting (for redness/rash).
In an interview on 03/03/25 at 9:04 am Staff 18 (CG/MT) reported Resident 1 needed toileting up to five times per shift, including before and after breakfast and before and after lunch.
The February MAR documented the treatment administered every day at 8:00 am, 12:00 pm, and 8:00 pm.
The need to ensure medications and treatments were carried out as prescribed was discussed with Staff 1 (ED), Staff 6 (Memory Care Coordinator), and Staff 24 (Regional Director of Operations) on 03/03/25. They acknowledged the findings.
2. Resident 5 was admitted to the facility in 08/2023 with diagnoses including dementia.

The resident was identified to have skin breakdown to the back of his/her left thigh during the acuity interview on 02/25/25 and during observations of ADL care.
a. The 11/01/24 through 02/27/25 MAR/TARs and 12/16/24 physician orders showed the following:
* Desitin cream, apply to affected area PRN every shift, “apply to diaper area and right groin for skin irritation.”
No PRN Desitin cream was documented as applied during November 2024, December 2024 and January 2025. The PRN Desitin was administered four times in February 2025.
b. There was no documentation on the MAR/TARs of any active skin breakdown for the resident. Additionally, there was no documentation related to any physician ordered dressings or treatments, besides the scheduled ointment and the PRN cream.
c. Progress notes dated 11/01/24 through 02/27/25 showed the following:

Findings
Based on interview and record review, it was determined the facility failed to ensure an accurate MAR was maintained for each resident whose MARs were reviewed for 4 of 5 sampled residents (#s 1, 2, 3, and 4). Findings include, but are not limited to:
1. Resident 2 was admitted to the facility in 11/2021 with diagnoses including Alzheimer’s disease and chronic pain.
Review of the resident's 02/01/25 through 02/25/25 progress notes, MAR and physician communications, and the 12/06/24 signed physician orders showed the following:
* Milk of Magnesia, give 30 ml PRN “until bowel movement.”
The MAR lacked resident specific parameters on when to start the medication.
* Tylenol, Diclofenac Sodium gel and Oxycodone-APAP were all ordered PRN for pain. The medications had unclear parameters and lacked direction for staff on when to give which medications, how long to wait before administering the next medication, and how the PRNs should be used in relation to the resident’s scheduled medications.
The need to ensure medication/treatment administration records were complete and included resident specific parameters for PRN use was discussed with Staff 1 (ED) and Staff 6 (Memory Care Coordinator) on 02/27/25. The staff acknowledged the findings.
2. Resident 3 was admitted to the facility in 01/2024 with diagnoses including dementia.
Review of the resident's 11/01/24 through 02/25/25 progress notes, MAR/TAR and physician communications, and the 12/04/24 signed physician orders showed the following:
* Milk of Magnesia, give 30 ml PRN for constipation. There were no resident specific parameters on when to start the medication.
* A stage 2 pressure ulcer was discovered on 11/04/24 and documented in a progress note. The wound remained active until 01/10/25 when a note indicated the wound had resolved. The resident’s wound reopened on 02/15/25.
A physician’s order dated 12/05/24 indicated to apply zinc oxide to coccyx wound up to four times daily PRN for soiling. The December 2024 MAR/TAR reflected Desitin cream (Zinc Oxide) apply four times daily prn to affected area, “for peri area and groin area breakdown.”
The resident’s MAR/TARs dated 11/01/24 through 11/30/24 and 01/01/25 through 02/25/25 contained no information on the resident’s skin breakdown or treatments provided by staff. The 12/01/24 through 12/31/24 MAR/TAR showed the Desitin cream was applied twice. There was no further information on where or why the cream was applied.
The need to ensure medication/treatment administration records were complete and included resident specific parameters for PRN use was discussed with Staff 1 (ED) and Staff 6 (Memory Care Coordinator) on 02/27/25. The staff acknowledged the findings.
3. Resident 1 moved into the community in 02/2024 with diagnoses including dementia and type 1 diabetes.
Review of Resident 1's 02/01/25 through 02/25/25 MAR and corresponding physician orders identified the following medications lacked resident-specific parameters:
* Glucose (Raspberry) 4-400 Gram unit tab chew (glucose) for low blood sugar, lacked parameters for what constituted low blood sugar; and
* Insulin Aspart Flexpen sliding scale, lacked parameters for when to hold the medication.
The need to ensure MARs were accurate, including providing resident-specific parameters and instructions for medications, was reviewed with Staff 1 (ED), Staff 6 (Memory Care Coordinator), and Staff 24 (Regional Director of Operations) on 03/03/25. They acknowledged the findings.
4. Resident 4 moved into the community in 01/2025 with diagnoses including dementia and anxiety.
Review of Resident 4’s 02/01/25 through 02/25/25 MAR and corresponding physician orders identified the following:
a. Lidocaine 4% patch (for back pain) lacked resident-specific instructions for location of patch placement.
b. Seven medications staff administered on 02/16/25 at 8:00 pm lacked the initials of the person administering the medication.
c. Two PRN medications for constipation, PEG Powder and Senna, lacked resident-specific parameters, including order of administration.
The need to ensure MARs were accurate, including providing resident-specific parameters, initialing the MAR when medication was administered, and order of administration for multiple PRN medications with the same indication, was reviewed with Staff 1 (ED), Staff 6 (Memory Care Coordinator), and Staff 24 (Regional Director of Operations) on 03/03/25. They acknowledged the findings.

Findings
Based on interview and record review, it was determined the facility failed to ensure PRN psychotropic medications used to treat a resident's behavior had written, resident-specific parameters, and non-pharmacological interventions were attempted prior to administering the medication for 2 of 2 sampled residents (#s 2 and 4) who were prescribed PRN medication to address behaviors. Findings include, but are not limited to:
1. Resident 4 moved into the community in 01/2025 with diagnoses including dementia and anxiety.
a. The facility failed to ensure there were specific parameters for staff describing how Resident 4 expressed anxiety and agitation, and in what order the following psychotropic medications should be administered:
* Lorazepam 0.5 mg every two hours as needed for anxiety or agitation; and
* Haloperidol 1.5 ml every four hours as needed for agitation.
b. The facility administered the PRN Haloperidol 15 times during February. There were no non-pharmacological interventions on the MAR for staff to attempt prior to administering.
The need to ensure there were resident-specific descriptions of how the resident expressed anxiety and agitation, instruction on order of administration, and non-drug interventions for staff to attempt prior to the administration of PRN psychotropic medications was reviewed with Staff 1 (ED), Staff 6 (Memory Care Coordinator) and Staff 24 (Regional Director of Operations) on 03/03/25. They acknowledged the findings.
2. Resident 2 was admitted to the facility in November 2021 with diagnoses including Alzheimer’s disease.
Review of the resident's 02/01/25 through 02/25/25 MARs and progress notes, and 12/06/24 physician orders showed the following:
* Quetiapine 50 mg, (antipsychotic medication), ½ tablet daily, PRN for “mood.”
The Quetiapine was administered six times between 02/01/25 and 02/25/25.
The MARs did not contain resident-specific parameters for staff describing when to give the medication, what behavior they were watching for and listed only the generic reason for use of “mood.”
The need to ensure resident-specific information on how the behaviors or condition present for the resident, prior to administration of a PRN psychotropic medication should be administered, was discussed with Staff 1 (ED), Staff 6 (Memory Care Coordinator) and Staff 24 (Regional Director of Operations) on 03/03/25. The staff acknowledged the findings.

No correction date recorded
Findings
Based on observation and interview, the facility failed to ensure 1 of 1 sampled resident (#3) was treated with dignity and respect and given the opportunity to select or refuse to consent to physician orders. Findings include, but are not limited to:
Resident 3 was admitted to the facility in July 2021 with diagnoses including Alzheimer's disease.
During an interview with Staff 5 (MT) on 10/05/21 at 6:15 pm, she reported the resident had a history of refusing medications. Staff 5 indicated if the resident refused his/her medications, she put it in his/her dessert to "disguise" it, but did not tell the resident.
During an observation and interview on 10/06/21 at 8:20 am, Staff 14 (MT) revealed she had dissolved the resident's morning medication in his/her coffee "for a few weeks" because of frequent refusals.
On 10/05/21 and 10/06/21, Staff 2 (Memory Care Coordinator) and Staff 1 (Administrator) were informed Resident 3's medication had been administered without his/her consent. The need to ensure the resident was treated with dignity and respect and provided the opportunity to select or refuse to consent to physician orders was discussed. They acknowledged the findings.
On 10/06/21, Staff 1 indicated the practice would be stopped immediately and a new plan to address resident medication refusals would be implemented.
Plan of Correction
C200 resident rights; Resident # 3 has the right to refuse his medications, we have made community instructions to med techs to give resident # 3 and all residents the right to refuse their medications.
We have implemented training for medication technicians regarding resident right to refuse their medications. We are also training on why a resident would have a crush order, it is not to trick the resident its due to not being able to swallow the pill form. We have updated resident #3 care plan and community instructions on the MARS. In order to prevent this from happening again, all crush orders must be approved by the RN in advance prior to the request for a crush order being requested. So we can determine if the resident has a true swallowing issue and needs a crush order to prevent tricking the resident into taking medications. RN and Administrator to monitor when 2nd checking new orders for residents as they are received this will require ongoing monitoring.

No correction date recorded
Findings
Based on interview and record review, it was determined the facility failed to ensure incidents and resident altercations were promptly investigated to rule out abuse and reported to the local SPD office as appropriate for 2 of 3 sampled residents (#s 2 and 3) whose incidents were reviewed. Findings include, but are not limited to:
1. Resident 2 was admitted to the facility in June 2019 with diagnoses including dementia.
The resident's care plan dated 08/17/21 and interviews with care staff between 10/04/21 and 10/06/21 indicated the resident was dependent for all ADL care and had frequent falls. The resident was unable to direct his/her own care.
Review of incident investigations and progress notes from 07/01/21 through 10/04/21 showed the following:
* A progress note dated 09/07/21 indicated the resident had a swollen and puffy face. There was no additional information about the potential injury.
* A progress note dated 09/29/21 indicated a bump was discovered on the resident's head, near the hairline. The area was "bluish" in color and appeared to be bruised. There was no additional information on the cause of the bump/bruise.
* A progress note dated 10/01/21 indicated the resident had a "black eye," and the resident stated it was from running into the tables. There was no additional information about the cause of the injury.
Investigations of the 09/07/21, 09/29/21 and 10/01/21 injuries of unknown cause were not completed to rule out potential abuse and were not reported to the local SPD office when appropriate.
The need to ensure resident incidents were promptly investigated to rule out abuse and neglect was discussed with Staff 1 (Administrator), Staff 2 (Memory Care Coordinator) and Staff 3 (Health Services Director/RN) on 10/05/21. The staff acknowledged the findings.
The facility was asked to report all three injuries of unknown cause to the local SPD office. Confirmation of the reports were provided prior to survey exit.
2. Resident 3 was admitted to the facility in July 2021 with diagnoses including Alzheimer's disease.
Interviews with staff and review of progress notes dated 07/09/21 through 10/04/21 and incident investigations revealed the following:
* On 08/21/21, "Resident...yelling at other residents and threatening other residents...stating [s/he] was going to kick the shit out of all of us ....would walk around dining room telling other residents to shut their mouths or [s/he] would shut them for them...other resident in dining room started to become afraid."
* On 08/22/21, Resident told another resident to "shut up and she need to leave no one likes her here ...went to hit another resident." The MT documented that she prevented the other resident from being hit.
There was no documented evidence the facility investigated the incidents to rule out potential abuse. The need to investigate all potential incidents of abuse was discussed with Staff 1 (Administrator) and Staff 2 (Memory Care Coordinator) on 10/05/21. They acknowledged the findings.

No correction date recorded
Findings
Based on observation, interview and record review, it was determined the facility failed to ensure the RN performed an assessment, developed interventions based on the condition of the resident, and updated the service plan for 2 of 2 sampled residents (#s 1 and 2) who experienced a significant change. Resident 2 experienced a severe weight loss with ongoing significant loss, without intervention. Findings include, but are not limited to:
1. Resident 2 was admitted to the facility in June 2019 with diagnoses including dementia. Progress notes and physician communications dated 07/01/21 through 10/04/21, and interviews with care staff on 10/04/21 and 10/05/21 showed the resident required one person, full assistance with care. The resident had an overall decline in condition in June 2021. The resident was noted to have intermittent edema and poor to fair meal intake.
a. Review of the resident's "Weight Report" from March 2021 through September 2021 showed the following:
* The resident experienced a 18.5 lb weight loss from March 2021 to September 2021 which constituted a 15% severe weight loss in six months.
* The resident experienced an 8.5 lb weight loss from June 2021 to September 2021, which constituted a 7.5% significant weight loss in three months.
* The resident experienced a 5.9 lb weight loss from August 2021 to September 2021, which constituted a 5.39% significant weight loss in one month.
A current weight was requested for the resident. The resident's weight was noted as 95.6 lbs on 10/06/21. This represented an additional 7.9 lb weight loss from September 2021 to October 2021, which constituted a 7.63% severe loss in one month.
The resident's 08/17/21 service plan indicated the resident had nutritional shakes three times daily due to weight loss to help maintain his/her weight. Weights were to be done weekly for monitoring. The service plan did not reflect the resident's need for finger foods, assistance with utensils and assistance with fluids.
Physician orders dated 08/02/21 included orders for weekly weights and staff were to notify the RN if a there was a three pound weight variance from the previous weight. There was no order for any nutritional shakes or supplements on the most recent physician orders.
The resident's 09/01/21 through 10/04/21 MAR showed three of the five opportunities for weekly weights were not recorded on the MAR. The MAR contained no information regarding any health shake or nutritional supplements for the resident.
Staff interviews conducted 10/04/21 to 10/06/21 revealed the resident frequently required staff to feed him/her the meal. Staff indicated the resident ate better when finger foods were an option as s/he became more confused with the use of utensils. The staff further indicated the resident had become very small and lost a great deal of weight in the last month or so. Four staff interviewed indicated they did not provide any health shakes or other shakes to the resident and stated the resident did not receive any type of shake during their shifts.

282 - Delegation. The RN now has a better understanding of the Role of the RN she has completed the class on 10/14/21. Since finishing the class RN is in the process of re-delegating all the medication technicians.
The RN used the same forms and process as the previous RN who quit left behind, being new to the role she did not know she did not have the correct information. She has since learned how to properly delegate. Including an assessment of each of the diabetic resident's history to determine if their condition is stable and predictable. Also, a bio & history of med techs she is delegating insulin tasks in order to determine they are safely delegated.
RN will monitor the delegation tasks monthly and resident assessments as required per State of Oregon.
