**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
interview and record review, the facility failed to ensure three of four sampled residents (Resident 3,
Resident 18, and Resident 45) Preadmission Screening and Resident Review (PASRR) were screened and
referred to the appropriate state mental authority for Level II PASRR evaluation and determination.(PASRR
is a federal requirement to help ensure that individuals who have a mental disorder or intellectual
disabilities are appropriately placed in nursing homes for long term care). This failure had the potential to
prevent residents from receiving appropriate required mental health services. During a review of Resident
3's Minimum Data Set (MDS-an assessment screening tool used to guide care), dated 6/19/25 the MDS
indicated Resident 3 was admitted to the facility on [DATE] with diagnosis that included post-traumatic
stress disorder (PTSD a disorder in which a person has difficulty recovering after experiencing or
witnessing a terrifying event), anxiety disorder (a mental health disorder characterized by feelings of worry,
anxiety, or fear that are strong enough to interfere with one's daily activities), and depression. During a
concurrent interview and record review on 8/7/25 at 9:32 a.m. with Director of Nursing (DON), Resident 3's
PASRR Level I screen dated 6/13/25 was reviewed. PASRR Level I indicated Resident 3 did not had a
diagnosis of serious mental illness. DON stated Resident 3's Level I PASRR was initiated from hospital
before admission to facility. DON stated facility's process was for the Interdisciplinary Team (IDT) to review
residents PASRR upon admission from the hospital and determine if there is required follow up. DON stated
Resident 3's PASRR Level I was not accurately screened or referred to the appropriate state mental
authority for Level II PASRR evaluation and determination.(IDT-an interdisciplinary team is a group of
professionals from different fields who collaborate to address complex needs, often in healthcare or other
specialized settings). During a review of Resident 18's Minimum Data Set (MDS-an assessment screening
tool used to guide care), dated 5/26/25 the MDS indicated Resident 18 was admitted to the facility on
[DATE] with diagnosis that included psychotic disorder ( a mental disorder characterized by a disconnection
from reality) and anxiety a mental health disorder characterized by feeling of worry, anxiety, or fear that are
strong enough to interfere with one's daily activities) and depression. During a concurrent interview and
record review on 8/6/25 at 8:43 a.m. with DON, Resident 18's PASRR Level I screen dated 9/16/24 was
reviewed. PASRR Level I indicated Resident 18 did not have a serious mental illness or a diagnosis of
serious mental illness. DON stated Resident 18's Level I PASRR was not accurately screened. DON stated
it was important to make sure PASRRs accurately reflect residents' mental health conditions in order for
Resident 18 to receive necessary supporting care.During a review of Resident 45's MDS, dated [DATE], the
MDS indicated Resident 45 was admitted to the facility on [DATE] with diagnosis that included depression
and schizophrenia (a mental disorder that affects a person's ability to think, feel, and behave clearly).
During a concurrent interview and record review on 8/7/25 at 9:49 a.m. with DON, Resident 45's PASRR
Level I screen dated 8/16/21 was reviewed. PASRR

Based on observation, interview and record review, the facility failed to provide routine medications to meet
the needs of one of two sampled residents (Resident 62) and ensured controlled medications (those with
high potential for abuse and addiction) were accurately reconciled for two of three sampled residents
(Resident 3 and 39) when:1.Resident 62's basaglar insulin (medication used to help manage blood sugar
levels) and epogen (medication used to treat anemia, a condition where the blood doesn't carry enough
oxygen to the rest of the body) were not available for administration. These failures resulted in Resident 62
to not receive medications as ordered by the physician.2.Resident 3 and 39's controlled drug records were
documented illegibly. These failures resulted in inaccurate accountability of controlled medications and
potential for misuse or diversion (illegal distribution or abuse of prescription drugs or their use for purpose
not intended by the prescriber) of controlled medications.1. During a review of Resident 62's Face Sheet,
printed on 8/6/25, the Face Sheet indicated Resident 62 was admitted in the facility on 12/6/24 with a
diagnosis of diabetes mellitus (a condition where blood sugar levels are too high) and anemia (a condition
where the blood doesn't carry enough oxygen to the rest of the body).During a concurrent medication
administration observation and interview on 8/5/25 at 9:00 a.m. with Licensed Vocational Nurse (LVN) 1,
LVN 1 was observed preparing and administering 12 out of 14 scheduled medications for Resident 62. LVN
1 stated Resident 62's basaglar insulin and epogen medications were not available. LVN 1 stated basaglar
insulin and epogen medications were usually stored in the medication room refrigerator.During a concurrent
observation and interview on 8/5/25 at 9:30 a.m. with LVN 1 in the medication room, LVN 1 unlocked the
medication room refrigerator and searched for Resident 62's basaglar insulin and epogen medication. LVN
1 stated Resident 62's basaglar insulin and epogen were not in the refrigerator.During a review of Resident
62's Physician Order Report, dated 8/4/25, the Physician Order Report indicated Resident 62 had an order
to receive seven units of basaglar insulin once a day at 9:00 a.m. for diabetes mellitus.During a review of
Resident 62's Medication Administration History dated 8/5/25, the Medication Administration History
indicated, Resident 62's basaglar insulin was not available and not administered.During a concurrent
interview and record review on 8/6/25 at 11:48 a.m. with Registered Nurse (RN) 1, Resident 62's Progress
Notes, dated 8/5/25 was reviewed. The Progress Notes indicated, Resident 62's epogen medication was
denied by the insurance and RN 1 requested for a STAT delivery (medication to be delivered within a
specific timeframe) from the pharmacy at 11:26 a.m. RN 1 stated STAT medication delivery were expected
to be delivered within four hours from the time it was requested.During a review of Resident 62's Progress
Notes, dated 8/5/25, the Progress Notes indicated, Resident 62's epogen medication delivery was followed
up by RN 1 from the pharmacy at 5:51 p.m.During a review of Resident 62's Medication Administration
History dated 7/8/25, 7/10/25, 7/12/15, 7/17/25, 7/19/25, 7/24/25, 7/26/25, 7/31/25, the Medication
Administration History indicated, Resident 62's epogen medication were scheduled to be administered at
9:00 a.m. but were not available and were not administered.During a review of the facility's policy and

Provide and implement an infection prevention and control program.
Level of Harm - Minimal harm
or potential for actual harm
Based on observation, interview and record review, the facility failed to ensure infection control practices
were observed by one of one sampled laundry staff (LS) when the LS was not wearing a gown while
moving soiled linen from the soiled linen hamper in to the washer.This failure had the potential for cross
contamination and spread of infections among 72 residents at the facility.During a concurrent observation
and interview on 8/7/25 at 10:09 a.m. with the LS and Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA) 1 in the laundry
room, the LS was observed grasping soiled linen from the hamper in to the washer only with gloved hands.
The LS stated she had never used a gown or was told to use a gown when putting the dirty linen in to the
machine. The LS stated wearing the gown could protect staff and other residents from the spread of
infection.During a concurrent observation and interview on 8/7/25 at 10:15 a.m. with the Laundry Staff
Supervisor (LSS) in the laundry room, the LS continued to move the soiled linen from the hamper in to the
washer with only gloved hands. The LSS stated gown should be worn all the time when picking dirty linen
from the hamper. The LSS stated some laundry staff would wear a gown and some would not. The LSS
stated wearing a gown made other laundry staff feeling hot. During a review of facility's policy and
procedure (P&P) titled, Soiled Linen Collection and Transfer, undated, the P&P indicated, Soiled linen
should not be carried against clothing when transporting . Put on personal protective equipment (PPE refers to protective items or garments worn to protect the body or clothing from hazards that can cause
