Inspection Findings:
Based on observation, and interviews, it was determined the facility failed to maintain the kitchen in good repair and in a sanitary manner, in accordance with the Food Sanitation Rules, OAR 333-150-000. Findings include, but are not limited to:

Observation of the facility cottage kitchens and facility food storage areas on 01/10/25 at 10:30 am through 3:00 pm revealed the following deficiencies:

a. An accumulation of food spills, splatters, loose food and trash debris, dirt, dust, black matter and grease was visible on, underneath or between the following:

Main food storage and distribution center
* Walk in cooler floor;
* Reach in freezers;

Individual Cottage Kitchens;
* Interior of reach in refrigerators and freezers;
* Interior kitchen drawers, cupboards and cabinets;
* Cupboard/drawer where trash/compost was stored;
* Interior of oven (Mt Vernon);
* Interior of microwaves;
* Dry storage pantry floors;
* Floors in outdoor storage areas where reach in freezers located;

b. The following areas were found in need of repair:

Individual Cottage Kitchens:
* Corner cupboards and cupboards storing pots/pans, baking pans observed with damage.
* Cedar house cove base missing on the corner between fridge and dishwasher.
* Cedar house vent above stove with bent/damaged screen yeilding gaps.

c. Multiple cutting boards and cooking pots/pans were found damaged and in poor repair with nonstick coating scratched or worn off.

d. Multiple potentially hazardous food items found sored in the individual kitchen reach in refrigerators not labeled or dated. Facility is removing most food items from original manufactured packaging and not putting a use by date on the food package. Multiple items were found dated past seven days from opening or preparing and should have been discarded per rule. In the Diamond Peak house, multiple specific resident food items were found stored in the refrigerator and did not have a date opened/prepared or use by date. Multiple containers of beets were found past the expired date of 01/01/25 that was written on the containers.

e. Scoops were observed stored in bulk food items like sugar and coffee where handles touched by staff were touching the food product.

f. Package of dough was noted to be stored in the draw marked “For defrosting Meats only.” Multiple open packages of deli meats were observed stored next to and with packaging touching the Bread dough packaging. In Cedar house, a bowl of raw fish was observed stored on the top shelf above ready to eat food items and fresh fruits and vegetables.

g. Care staff were observed in all houses assisting resident with meals without protective barriers (full aprons) to minimize potential contamination between care provision tasks and meal service.

h. Care staff preparing the meals were not able to identify the sanitizing agents used to sanitize surfaces in the kitchen. Staff were unaware of the effective concentrations for surface sanitation. Multiple houses were not effectively sanitizing food thermometers prior to checking food temperatures or in between food items. One staff member was observed to not sanitize the thermometer after checking temperature of fish before placing thermometer in the dessert potentially contaminating the dessert. The fish was fully cooked and posed a minimal risk to the dessert but the practice was unsafe. Surveyor immediately provided education to the caregiver.

i. Multiple food items were found stored in cold and dry food storage that were not appropriately covered/sealed and protected from potential contamination. In Diamond Peak house, a plate of food was set aside for a resident on top of the microwave. The plate of food was not covered to protect from potential contamination or to promote palatable temperatures. In Cascades house, meal service items were noted uncovered at 12:50 pm. Lunch service begins for all houses at 12:00 pm. Staff verified they were finished serving residents lunch service. Food items should be kept covered when possible, to protect from potential contamination but also to promote hot holding temperature requirements.

j. The main food storage and distribution building does not have a dishwasher to sanitize food contact utensils/dishes. The area has an one compartment sink. Multiple cutting boards and knives were observed next to the sink. Surveyor asked staff 2 (Food and Supply Coordinator/Person In Charge) what the process was for washing and sanitizing his food contact dishes and equipment as well as other surfaces in the food distribution area. Staff 2 indicated cutting boards, knives and other food contact utensils were washed by hand in the sink observed. Staff 2 acknowledged there currently was not a sanitation step as required per rule. Staff 2 was not aware a sanitize step was required. Staff 2 was also not aware of the surface sanitation chemicals used nor the needed parts per million (PPM) to ensure effective sanitation as required per rule. Staff 2 indicated maintenance department mixed the sanitation chemicals for all the houses. At 2:45pm Staff 1 (Executive Director) was interviewed and verified the maintenance department mixed chemicals for surface sanitation. Staff 2 did not know the chemicals or PPM needed for effective surface sanitation per rule. Staff 2 indicated the maintenance director was not at the facility for surveyor to interview. Surveyor asked to be provided the chemicals used and the PPM it was being mixed to along with other written information about the sanitizer used for surfaces and food contact surfaces. At the time of this report no further information was provided to ensure chemicals used were food grade and appropriate concentrations and timelines were followed.
k. Multiple kitchens were observed to have uncontained fly trap devices stored in the food preparation and service areas. The traps were full with multiple dead insect carcasses which were clearly visible to residents, staff and visitors. Surveyor discussed this with Staff 1 who was unaware these style of insect traps were not appropriate in food preparation and service areas.
l. Staff drinks were observed stored on the counters and or in reach in refrigerators and were not of approved styles. Multiple soda bottles were noted and did not have lids, straws or handles as outlined in rule. Staff drinks must be in a secure/separate area and of the right style to minimize/prevent potential cross contamination. Staff 2 was not aware of the specific style requirements.
m. The facility was composting organic material. The individual houses did not have appropriate composting containers that had securely fitting lids to minimize access, attraction and accumulation of pests. The curbside containers utilized were not being cleaned at a frequency to minimize odor and had a great accumulation of food, dirt and debris. This practice could attract pests to the refuse area of the facilities if not maintained as outlined in rule.

Meal service items should be kept covered, when possible, to protect from potential contamination but also to promote hot holding temperature requirements. In Diamond peak, a plated up plate of food was noted sitting on the counter top uncovered while staff member was doing other tasks.

g. Staff was observed to drink from a water bottle stored near their work space in the distribution center. This water bottle had the twist top opener which can lead to potential contamination. In Cascade house, care staff had a regular style open coffee cup that they were drinking from. Both observed staff drinks did not have a lid or a straw as required per rule.
h. Cascade house did not have weekly or daily menu posted for residents to observe/access. The menu was in the kitchen on the board for staff to refer to. Care staff from that house were interviewed at 12:25 pm and verified the menus were not posted in a common area for residents to access. The served menu to residents did not match the posted menu.
i. Multiple items were observed stored on the walk-in cooler floor and on the main storage floor. Staff 2 indicated the facility had received multiple shipments on Friday (three days prior) and had not had a chance to put it away. Staff 2 indicated this frequently happens where stock has to be put away on Monday that was delivered on Friday related to time and staffing. Surveyor reinforced per food code food can not be stored on the floor and must be put away and up off the floor within a reasonable amount of time.
Surveyor reviewed above areas with Staff 2 and they acknowledged the identified areas. At approximately 12:45 pm the surveyor reviewed the areas in need of cleaning, repair and practices with Staff 1 (Assistant Executive Director) who acknowledged the identified areas.

Survey directed the facility to dispose of the potentially contaminated food since the temperature of the refrigerator was above 41 degrees Fahrenheit, as it was unclear how long the temperature was above the minimum required. On 10/05/20 at 8:20 AM, Staff 2 reported the temperature of refrigerator continued to be above the minimum required, and the facility was utilizing coolers to maintain perishable items at the proper temperature while the maintenance department attempted to fix the problem. She indicated food in the refrigerator would be disposed of.Upon recheck at 1:00 PM on 10/05/22, a thermometer in the door of the refrigerator registered 38 degrees Fahrenheit. d. During a tour of the kitchen in the Willow cottage on 10/03/22 and 10/04/22 the following was noted:On 10/05/22, the refrigerator thermometer was observed to be 50 degrees Fahrenheit. Facility staff reported the temperature of the milk was 44.6 degrees Fahrenheit. Survey directed the facility to dispose of the potentially contaminated food if the temperature of the refrigerator was above 41 degrees, as it was unclear how long the temperature was above the minimum required. The facility provided a plan to keep refrigerated food for Willow in the "lower shop" walk in refrigerator until the Willow refrigerator could be repaired. The plan was approved by the survey team. On 10/05/22, the need to ensure kitchens followed safe food handling practices and kitchens were clean and in good repair was discussed with Staff 1 (Administrator) and Staff 2 (Assistant Administrator). She acknowledged the findings.
Plan of Correction:
Plan of Correction:1- On 10/18/22, a walkthrough of each of the 9 homes was completed by the Administrator, Assistant Administrator and Maintenance Coordinator. The following has been addressed or is in process of being addressed:a- All baseboards thoughout the homes that were not completely attached to the walls have been reattached and secured by the Maintenance Department until the contractor we are currently working with comes out to replace all basetrim throughout each of the homes.b- Any shelving or surface in the refridgerators that was cracked or scratched has been replaced or repaired by the Maintenance Department.c- all pantry's (dry storage shelves) are in process of beind deep cleaned by the housekeeper and the supervisor for each home.d- All refrigerators (inside and outside), freezers, microwaves (inside and outside), stoves (inside and outside), cabinets, drawers, dishwashers (inside and outside) and oven vents are in process of being deep cleaned by the supervisors and staff in each home.e- Each damaged oven filter has been replaced or repaired by the Maintenance Coordinator.f- All food has been properly labeled, sealed and dated by the supervisor and staff in the homes.e- Eggs were inspected by food/supply department, all eggs are pasturized and from now on and will be left in their original container which shows they are pasturized. In the event eggs are not in the home and needed for a meal, the staff will call the lower shop and the food/supply workers will bring the eggs to the home. All staff have been trained on this process. f- Kitchen drawers and cupboards have been sealed in the areas that were identified as uncleanable. We are currently working with an outside contractor to have all doors/cabinet doors replaced in every home.g- All outside freezers are now defrosted by the Maintenance Department.h- All food stored in the freezers has been inspected by the food/supply department to make sure all food which appeared to be freezer burned was removed. All frozen food will now be double bagged by the food/supply department to prevent freezer burn.i- all eggs and raw meats have been moved to the bottom of the refridgerators, each supervisor for the home was trained on proper thawing and egg storage in the coordinator meeting on 10/20/22, each supervisor is in process of re-trainining each of their staff until the in-service for all staff on 11/15/22. Lower Shop/Main Kitchen Supply Area:a- all floors have been deep cleaned by the food/supply department and black matter is no longer present.b- all freezers and refridgerators were deep cleaned by the food/supply department, no food debris is present.c- all food that wasn't dated or labeled has been removed by the food/supply department.2- On 10/5/22, the refridgerators in the Willow and Mt. Vernon home were repaired by the Maintenance Coordinator. The temperature reading is now consistently between 38-40 degrees Fahrenheit. 3- A temperature log form was created by the Administrator and posted in each kitchen on 10/20/2022. The form requires staff to check the refridgerators internal temperature once per shift, note the temperature on the log with the time the temperature was checked and will require the staff noting the temperature to report any temperature over 40 degrees Fahrenheit to their supervisor immediately. The Food/supply department will check these logs at least twice a week to ensure they are being consistently filled in and that the temperatures are consitently at 40 degrees Fahrenheit or lower. 4- On 10/20/22, the Administrator met with each department supervisor to review and re-educate on the following (including but not limited to):a- our policies around kitchen cleaning, chore lists, holding employees accountable and checking their work after chores are completed.b- the process for properly sealing, dating and labeling all food and fluids in the pantry, freezer, refridgerator and in dry storage.c- the proper storage of eggs and keeping them in their original containers to show they are pasturized. d- the proper process for thawing meat and where to store raw meat in the refridgerators.e- proper hand hygeine including the situations where hands need to be washed and "double washed".f- proper cooling methods, cooking times/temperatures, and hazardous foods.g- Foodborne illness education including; signs and symptoms of food borne illness, what cross contamination is and how to prevent food borne illness.h- Proper use of food thermometers, the need to use alcohol swabs to clean the thermometers (swabs physically handed to each person in this meeting).i- The proper use of gloves and masks.j- A competency test and copies of the Food Safety training manual was administered to all attendees by the Administrator to ensure understanding.k- A plan was identified for each of the supervisors to work with each of the employees they supervise to re-train them on the subjects covered in this meeting until the mandatory in-service this November 15th.5- An annual in-service training has been created and added to the training calendar. This in-service will be mandatory for all staff to attend and all will need to pass a competency exam following the training. The in-service will be taught by the Administrator and will include the subjects listed below (including but not limited to):a- food safety including proper temperatures, cooking times, proper cool-down methods, hand hygeine, foodborne illness, proper cleaning methods, proper use of gloves and masks, how to use and clean thermometers.b- temperature logs for each refridgerator, how to use, who fills in and when.6- Laminated signs outlining proper use of a thermometer and proper food temperatures will be posted in each of the homes kitchens by the Administrator.7- A Quality Assurance Auditing form has been created for the Lower Shop/main food receiving area. This audit will be conducted at least quarterly by the Administrator. This audit will require the auditor to make sure there is no food debris in or outside of any food storage area, nothing is unsealed and unlabeled, and flooring is clean and in good repair. 8- The Administrator and Assistant Administrator shall oversee and ensure these changes are implemented and monitored.

Inspection Findings:
Based on observation, interview and record review, it was determined the facility failed to ensure service plans were reflective of residents' needs and were followed by staff for 1 of 8 sampled residents (# 1) whose service plans were reviewed. Findings include, but are not limited to:Resident 1 was admitted to the facility in June 2019 with diagnoses including Alzheimer's disease. Observations of the resident, interviews with staff, and review of the resident's service plan, dated 07/21/22, and progress notes dated 06/25/22 to 10/03/22 were completed. Staff indicated the resident was very stiff and frequently arched his/her body and stiffened, which had previously caused slides out of the wheelchair. The resident's service plan was not reflective and was not followed by staff in the following areas:* Foot pedals only when being moved in the wheelchair;* Seat alarm; * Ability to communicate needs; and* Use of non-skid product under the resident's cushion and bottom.The need to ensure resident service plans were reflective of current care needs and were consistently followed was discussed with Staff 1 (Administrator) and Staff 2 (Assistant Administrator) on 10/04/22. They acknowledged the findings.
Plan of Correction:
Plan of Correction:1- On 10/26/22 the nurse overseeing service plans for the residents in the Cascade home reviewed resident 1's service plan that was surveyed and found deficient. These service plans were clarified, corrected and now reflect the residents care level and needs. All staff in the home were re-trained on the Service plan and the updates made to the service plan. The nursing team is currently auditing each residents service plans to make sure they are reflective of each residents current care needs. Updates to service plans will be made by nursing as needed. 2- An interview of the staff members interviewed and observed by state auditors was conducted by the Administrator. After these interviews, it was determined that the staff were not following the proper shift report protocol which requires all staff to read each residents service plan, quiz their fellow employees to help learn the service plan and to report any inconsistencies, incorrect information or any item within the service plan that doesn't reflect the residents current needs to nursing which would trigger an evaluation and possible assessment if determined necessary.3- On 10/10/22, each staff in the Cascade home as well as all other homes were retrained on the protocol for shift report and the importance of knowing/following care plans and reporting changes or inaccuracies to nursing. 4- A new laminated "quick refrence" sheet has been created for each resident and posted in their bedroom above their bed. This will help both new staff and senior staff have a quicker way to read, know and follow important highlights from each residents care plan. The laminated signs will be updated with each change or update to the service plan, by the supervisor for each home.This is not a substitute for the service plans. This laminated "quick refrence" guide will include the following:a- types of alarms and when they should be set b- transfer instructions including equipment usec- ambulation instructions including any adaptive equipmentd- any miscelanous equipment or instructions for dressing or undressinge- any safety instructionsf- a picture of how the bedroom should be set up will be posted 5- A new section will be added to our New Hire class to discuss the importance of knowing/following service plans, will review our shift report protocol including reporting inconsistencies, errors or changes to nursing and how to use the "quick refrence" laminated signs. Each new hire will be required to attend this class and pass the competency exam within 30 days of hire.6- An additional section has been added to our annual training plan, taught by the Administrator, which will review the importance of knowing/following service plans, will review our shift report protocol including reporting inconsistencies, errors or changes to nursing and how to use the "quick reference" laminated signs. Each employee will be required to attend the class and pass the competency quiz annually.7- As part of the quarterly updates to the Acuity Based Staffing Tool, the Administrator will compare each residents service plan with observed care completion for each resident to make sure the care provided and observed match what is listed in each of the residents service plan.8- A new section to the Quality Assurance Auditing Tool has been added which will require the auditor to observe shift report in each home. This audit will ensure shift report protocol is followed, known and that each service plan is reviewed and known by the staff in the home. These audits will occur at least quarterly by the Administrator, Assistant Administrator, and staffing Coordinator. 9-An auditing schedule has been created for the Administrator, Assistant Administrator and Staffing Coordinator to ensure audits for each home are done routinely at least quarterly.10- The Administrator and Assistant Administrator shall oversee and ensure these changes are implemented and monitored.

2. Resident 1 was admitted to the facility in June 2019 with diagnoses including Alzheimer's. Observations of the resident, interviews with staff, review of the service plan dated 07/21/22, and progress notes dated 06/25/22 through 10/04/22 were reviewed. The resident experienced multiple short-term changes without documented monitoring at least weekly until resolution and interventions were not reviewed for effectiveness and/or lacked resident-specific directions to staff in the following areas:* Rash on the chest;* Weight changes;* Skin breakdown on the genitals; and* Antibiotic use after skin cancer removal.The need to ensure short-term changes of condition had documentation to reflect monitoring at least weekly to resolution and provided clear, resident-specific directions to staff was discussed with Staff 1 (Administrator) and Staff 2 (Assistant Administrator) on 10/04/22. They acknowledged the findings. 3. Resident 6 was admitted to the facility in August 2018 with diagnoses including dementia. Observations of the resident, interviews with staff, review of the service plan dated 07/21/22, and progress notes dated 06/27/22 through 10/04/22 were reviewed. The resident experienced multiple short-term changes without documented monitoring at least weekly until resolution and interventions were not reviewed for effectiveness and/or lacked resident-specific directions to staff in the following areas:* Head injury;* Blisters to the foot;* Loose stools;* Behaviors including resident altercations; and* Falls.The need to ensure short-term changes of condition had documentation to reflect monitoring at least weekly to resolution and provided clear, resident-specific directions to staff was discussed with Staff 1 (Administrator) and Staff 2 (Assistant Administrator) on 10/04/22. They acknowledged the findings.
5. Resident 3 was admitted to the facility in November 2019 with diagnoses including Alzheimer's and diabetes. Observations of the resident, interviews with staff and review of the current service plan, short-term service plans, incident report investigations, and progress notes dated 06/25/22 through 10/03/22 were completed. The resident experienced multiple short-term changes without documented monitoring of progress and/or effectiveness of interventions at least weekly until resolution in the following areas:* 07/01/22-Non-injury fall;* 07/17/22-Blister on right foot; and* 09/12/22-Fall with skin tear to the right elbow.The need to ensure short-term changes of condition had documentation to reflect monitoring at least weekly to resolution was discussed with Staff 1 (Administrator), Staff 2 (Assistant Administrator) and Staff 9 (Health Services Coordinator/LPN) on 10/05/22. They acknowledged the findings.
Based on observation, interview and record review, it was determined the facility failed to ensure changes of condition were evaluated and referred to the RN when significant, interventions were determined, documented, communicated to staff, monitored for effectiveness, and the changes monitored at least weekly through resolution for 5 of 8 sampled residents (#s 1, 3, 5, 6 and 7). Findings include, but are not limited to: 1. Resident 5 was admitted to the facility in February 2021 with diagnoses including Alzheimer's Disease. Review of the resident's current service plan and temporary service plans, 06/28/22 through 10/03/22 progress notes, vitals records, and weight records revealed the following: a. Progress notes on 08/20/22 and 08/25/22 stated the resident experienced falls from bed on those dates. There was no documented evidence the facility determined and documented what actions and interventions were needed for the resident following the falls. b. Review of Resident 2's weights recorded in multiple documents revealed a discrepancy in the weights entered. There was no documented evidence the facility monitored the weights and addressed the discrepancies to determine if the resident had experienced a change of condition. The need to ensure the facility addressed the needs of the resident following the falls and the weight fluctuations was discussed with Staff 1 (Administrator) and Staff 2 (Assistant Administrator) on 10/05/22. They acknowledged the findings.
4. Resident 7 was admitted to the facility in September 2022 with diagnoses including Alzheimer's. Resident 7's record was reviewed for changes of condition and revealed the following:a. Resident 7 experienced 15 falls between 09/01/22 and 10/03/22. Incident reports, progress notes, and temporary service plans identified interventions to mitigate falls; however, the records lacked evidence that interventions were being monitored for effectiveness after each subsequent fall.In an interview on 10/04/22, Staff 1 (Administrator) and Staff 9 (Health Services Coordinator/LPN) indicated Resident 7 frequently left the campus with friends and family where s/he consumed marijuana. An intervention was put into place to include having friends and family notify the facility if the Resident consumed marijuana to ensure increased monitoring and supervision to minimize further occurrences of falls. On 10/05/22, the need to ensure interventions were monitored for effectiveness was discussed with Staff 1 (Administrator) and Staff 2 (Assistant Administrator). They acknowledged the findings.b. Resident 7's record indicated s/he experienced a 13 pound weight loss from 09/01/2022 to 09/15/22 which constituted a 6.3% loss in two weeks.There was no documented evidence of ongoing monitoring of the resident's weight, no documentation the weight loss was reported to the RN and there were no interventions implemented to minimize further weight loss. Resident 7 was observed independently eating lunch on 10/04/22 and breakfast on 10/05/22. The resident ate 100% of the meals provided. On 10/05/22, the surveyor requested a current weight for Resident 7. The weight was noted as 191 pounds, a 1 pound weight loss since 09/15/22. On 10/05/2022, the need to ensure residents who experienced significant weight loss were referred to the RN, resident-specific interventions were developed and communicated to staff and were monitored until resolution was discussed with Staff 1 (Administrator) and Staff 2 (Assistant Administrator). They acknowledged the findings.
Plan of Correction:
Plan of Correction:1- On 10/17/22, the nurse managing fall tracking for resident 5 reviewed all fall trends and new interventions/actions have been implememted. The supervisor and staff for that home have been trained on the new actions/interventions by the nurse.2- On 10/11/22, the nurse managing 2's care reviewed all current and past weight trends. An RN assessment has since been completed for weight loss. Going forward, the RN will do weekly rounds for all residents to review weight trends for the week to make sure deviations are being reported in a timely and accurate manner.3- The nurse has audited and reviewed all of resident 1's sevice plans, past acute issues, weight trends and completed an evaluation of residents skin condition. Resident 1's service plan has been updated with instructions to the staff on what to monitor for and when to report changes in these issues.4- The Nurse who manages resident 6's plan of care has completed an audit and review of skin condition, past and present acute service plans/issues, fall trends and interventions put into place following each acute issue including blisters to the foot, loose stools, behaviors including altercations and falls with head injury. Several updates including resident specific instructions to the staff and new interventions have been added to resident 6's service plan. The supervisor and employees in the home were trained by the nurse for each new addition or change in the plan of care. 5- The nurse managing fall tracking for resident 7 is currently reviewing each intervention put into place for multiple falls to determine if the intervention has been effective or if a change in the plan needs to be made. The nurse will update the fall tracking form as well as resident 7's service plan. The supervisor and employees for that home will be retrained by the nurse for each new addition or change made to the service plan.6- On 10/7/22, the nurse managing resident 7's plan of care reviewed the interventions and service plan around the potential of marijuana use related to a pattern of falls. The service plan has been clarified and this intervention has now been reviewed by the nurse for effectiveness. APS was contacted by the Administrator on 10/5/22 to seek guidance regarding this situation. 7- On 10/5/22, An RN assessment was completed for weight loss and interventions have been ordered and are now implemented to help prevent further weight loss. On 10/5/22 the RN reviewed all current and past weight trends to make sure no further weight deviations had not been reported for assessment. Going forward, the RN will do weekly rounds for all residents and will review weights to make sure deviations are reported in a timely and accurate manner. 8- On 10/11/22, the nurse managing resident 3's plan of care, completed an audit of fall trends, and skin issues both resolved and active. All interventions put into place were reviewed for effectiveness and the service plan was updated and clarified. The supervisor and staff have been trained by the nurse, on the additions and clarifications to the service plan. Skin check completed by nursing for documentation. 9- In order to assure all staff know and follow the protocol of reporting each change in condition to nursing/supervisor, a laminated packet has been created by our nursing team and has been posted in each home as a quick refrence guide. This packet clearly lists the different types of changes in condition, signs and symptoms of each, how the staff should respond/who to call and phone numbers are listed at the top of the packet for easy access for all staff.10- An additional section has been added to the annual training plan, taught by nursing or Nurse Practitioner, which will review the laminated change in condition packet, will re-train all staff on what changes in condition are (including significant) and who to report these changes to per shift. Each staff will be required to attend this class as part of their annual training plan.11- On 10/20/2022, each supervisor for each home was re-trained by the Administrator on change in condition and as a group we reviewed the laminated change in condition packet.12- An audit was completed by 10/14/22, for each resident, by our nursing staff, to make sure there were no additional falls, severe weight deviations or any other change in condition that had not been reported to nursing for an evaluation or assessment. 13- The fall tracking tool that our medical team uses to document falls, track trends and list interventions was updated by nursing on 10/17/22. A new section was added to the tool which will require nursing to continueously evaluate each fall, review past and current interventions to see if they remain useful or appropriate and to track fall trends in a clearer way. This fall tracking tool will be reviewed by the Nurse Practitioner and Administrator in each quarterly review for each resident to ensure the fall tracking tool is being used appropriately and accurately by nursing. 14- The Administrator will now compile a list of each incident for each resident in a report format and bring it to each quarterly review for the medical team to review. This will help identify trends for incidents in a clearer way.15- During survey it was identified that weights were being entered in many different places which was causing confusion in addition to discrepancies in the weights entered. To prevent reocurrance and to make sure weight deviations are accurately reported for evaluation or assessment, we will now only enter vitals and weights in one place. Instead of using the electronic recording system, we will now use the paper form (orange vitals signs sheet) which will be located in each home in a binder specifically for vitals signs recording. This form has been updated with clear instructions to the staff checking and recording vitals on what and when to report deviations in any vitals sign.16- The paper vitals signs sheet will be checked by each supervisor for each home at least weekly to make sure issues are being reported in an accurate and timely manner. On 10/20/22 each supervisor for each home was trained by the Administrator on the new vitals signs reporting and recording process. At this meeting a plan was outlined for each supervisor to train their staff in each home on the new process for recording and reporting vital sign deviations.17- The RN will now do rounds to each home weekly to review each acute service plan as part of our weekly monitoring for acute issues and will also review each orange paper vital signs sheet to make sure any issues are identified and addressed in a timely and accurate manner. 18- A rounding schedule has now been created by the RN to ensure each home will be visited at least weekly so all vitals and acute service plans are reviewed at least weekly.19- On 10/20/2022, the medical team and Administrator reviewed the regulations and requirements for changes of condition, monitoring changes in condition and situations which require an RN assessment vs. an evaluation from the LPN. 20- Each of our Acute Service plan forms are currently being reviewed and revised by the nursing team. The revisions will have clearer and more descriptive instructions for monitoring and documentation for the staff to follow. Each Acute Service plan in place for an active issue, will be reviewed weekly by the RN.21- A section taught by the Administrator, has been added to the New Hire Class and to the annual training plan. This section will review the list below (including but not limited to):a- Proper documentation while monitoring an acute condition.b- PIC responsibilities for reporting changes in condition to nursing. c- shift report protocol including reading all care plans and acute care plans.d- recording weight/vitals and when to report issues to nursing.e- The importance of knowing and following service plans.All new hires will be required to attend this New Hire class within 30 days of hire and all senior staff will be required to attend this class annually as part of the annual training requirement.22- The Administrator, Assistant Administrator shall oversee and ensure these changes are implemented and monitored.

Inspection Findings:
Based on observation, interview and record review, it was determined the facility failed to ensure an RN assessment was performed for all residents who had significant changes of condition, with interventions communicated to staff and service plans updated for 1 of 6 sampled residents (#7) who experienced a significant change of condition. Findings include, but are not limited to:Resident 7 was admitted to the facility on 09/01/22 with diagnoses including Alzheimer's disease.Review of the resident's weight records from 09/01/22 through 09/15/22 showed the following:The resident experienced a 13-pound weight loss from 09/01/22 to 09/15/22, which constituted a 6.3% weight loss in two weeks. The resident weighed 205 pounds on 09/01/22 and 192 pounds on 09/15/22.There was no documented evidence the RN had assessed the status of the resident, documented findings as a result of the assessment, or developed interventions related to the resident's significant change of condition. Resident 7 was observed independently eating lunch on 10/04/22 and breakfast on 10/05/22. The resident ate 100% of the meals provided. A current weight was requested by the surveyor on 10/05/22; the resident weighed 191 pounds.On 10/05/22 the need to ensure the facility RN completed an assessment for all residents who experienced a significant change of condition was discussed with Staff 1 (Administrator) and Staff 2 (Assistant Administrator). They acknowledged the findings.
Plan of Correction:
Plan of Correction:1- In response to the findings from survey, the resident who expierenced significant weight loss has now had an RN assessment and the plan has been updated to help prevent further weight loss. 2- A complete audit was completed by the RN by 10/17/22 for every resident to review weight trends and address any further RN assessments that are needed.3- The RN will now do weekly rounds for each resident, at each home, to review the weights and vital signs trends for the current week as a double check to make sure each weight or other vital signs fluxuation/abnormalities were reported to the medical team as required by our protocol.4- In order to make sure vital signs including weights, are accurately recorded and reported, we have discontinued the use of Elder Mark, the electronic medical record system, for recording vitals including weights. We will now only use a paper sheet (orange sheet) to record weekly vitals signs checks. The form has written perimeters and guidelines at the top of the form, for reporting weight loss, gains or any other abnormalities to nursing. The Coordinators for each home, will be responsible to review each residents vitals including weight weekly and report any abnormalities to nursing.5- The medical order in Elder Mark that requires weekly vitals signs checks and reporting was updated to prompt the med passer to now record all weekly vitals on the orange sheet and to refer to instructions on the orange sheet for recording and reporting. 6- On 10/20/22 a team meeting which was attended by every supervisor including nursing, was conducted by the Administrator to review the rules and regulations around change in Condition reporting and monitoring including weight loss or gains withing the significant catagory.7- Our quality assurance auditing form has been updated which will require the auditor to check each residents weight/vitals trends and will make sure it was reported and assessed by the RN as needed. This audit will be completed by the Administrator, Assistant Administrator and Staffing Coordinator at least quarterly.8- An additional section to the annual training plan has been added. The Nurse Practitioner or RN will review rules, regulations, our policies and procedures around Change in Condition identification, reporting, required assessments and monitoring/documentation. Each employee will be required to attend this class and pass the competency exam annually. 9- The Administrator, Assistant Administrator and RN shall oversee and ensure these changes are implimented and monitored.

Inspection Findings:
Based on interview and record review, it was determined the facility failed to ensure delegation and supervision of special tasks of nursing care were completed in accordance with Oregon State Board of Nursing (OSBN) Division 47 rules, for 1 of 1 sampled resident (#4) who received insulin injections by unlicensed facility staff. Findings include, but are not limited to:According to OSBN Division 47 Administrative Rules, delegation means an RN authorizes an unlicensed person to perform tasks of nursing care and indicates the authorization in writing. The delegation process includes nursing assessment of the client in a specific situation, evaluation of the ability of the unlicensed persons, teaching the task and observing the staff demonstrate the task.During the acuity interview on 10/03/22, Resident 4 was identified to be administered insulin injections by non-licensed staff.Resident 4's insulin administration record and MARs, reviewed from 09/01/22 through 10/03/22, revealed insulin had been given by Staff 15 (Cedar Resident Coordinator/MT), Staff 28 (Shift Supervisor/MT) and Staff 29 (Shift Supervisor/MT) on multiple occasions.The most recent periodic inspection, supervision and re-evaluation of the delegation for Staff 15, completed 08/30/22, Staff 28, completed 06/22/22 and Staff 29, completed 08/25/22, lacked documentation in the following areas:* Nursing assessment and condition of the resident, to include determination that the resident's condition remained stable and predictable; and* Individual observation/return demonstration of competence, to include determination if the staff remained capable and willing to safely perform the task. The need to ensure staff who administered insulin injections were delegated in accordance with OSBN Division 47 Rules was discussed with Staff 1 (Administrator), Staff 2 (Assistant Administrator) and Staff 8 (Health Services Director/RN) on 10/05/22. They acknowledged the findings. No further information was provided.
Plan of Correction:
Plan of Correction:1- An audit was conducted and completed by the RN on 10/6/22 to review each delegated task, each employee who is delegated and the documentation around delegations. Employees have been re-delegated using updated delegation form, RN assessmanets have been completed for every resident with a delegated task.2- The RN and medical team have updated our RN delegation forms which now include sections for the following:a- Nursing assessment and condition of the resident.b- identify if the residents condition remains stable and predictable.c- individual observation with return demonstration of competence which also includes a section of the determination if the staff remained capable and willing to safely preform the task.d- date specific timelines for observation and return demonstrations/follow up for each delegated staff.3- The RN will now attend each quarterly review for every resident that has delegated tasks to review all documentation around the delegated task and to determine if the residents condition continues to be stable and predictable. The RN's attendance will ensure that the communication between the prescribing NP for that resident will be clear and goals of care discussed to ensure that the current plan continues to be appropriate for each resident with delegated tasks.4- During quarterly reviews, the Nurse Practitioner will review all delegation documentation to make sure rules and regulations are followed.5- On December 6th, the RN will attend the OHCA educational series on the RN role in long-term care. 6- The Administrator, RN and Assistant Administrator shall oversee and ensure these changes are implemented and monitored.
