What the inspector wrote

This survey cited 3 deficiencies. The full statement and the facility’s plan of correction follow, verbatim from the federal record.

These failures had the potential for Residents 42 and 36 pain needs to be not assessed appropriately to determine if the need to administer pain medication is warranted right away.
