interview and record review the facility failed to ensure one of three sampled residents (Resident 1),
wheelchair and ice chest was returned to him in a timely manner after his room was fumigated (a method of
using a lethal gas to exterminate pest within an enclosed space) on 1/15/2026.This failure resulted in
Resident 1 having feelings of harassment, retaliation and had the potential in Resident 1 feeling powerless
without his wheelchair.Findings:During a review of Resident 1's admission Record (Face Sheet-front page
of the chart that contains a summary of basic information about the resident), the Face Sheet indicated
Resident 1 was originally admitted to the facility on [DATE] and readmitted on [DATE], with diagnoses

disorder (a mood disorder that causes a persistent feeling of sadness and loss of interest).During a review
of Resident 1's History and Physical (H&P), dated 1/21/2025, the H&P indicated Resident 1 had the
capacity to understand and make decisions.During a review of Resident 1's Minimum Data Set (MDS-a
resident assessment tool), dated 10/3/2025, the MDS indicated Resident 1 was dependent (helper does all
the effort) on nursing staff for toileting, lower body dressing, sitting, lying, and transferring. The MDS
indicated Resident 1 needed substantial to maximal assistance from nursing staff with showering upper
body dressing, personal hygiene, and rolling from left to right.During an interview on 1/17/2026 at 11:43
