**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
observation, interview, and record review the facility failed to promote respect and dignity for one (1) of 1
sampled resident (Residents 19) under the dignity care area by failing to ensure that Resident 19 was free
from visible food stains on her clothing and dry, crusted discharge on her left eye. This deficient practice
had the potential to negatively impact Resident 19's self-esteem and psychosocial well-being (state of
mental, emotional, and social health of an individual). Findings: During a review of Resident 19's admission
Record, the admission Record indicated Resident 19 was initially admitted to the facility on [DATE].
Resident 19's diagnoses included depressive disorder (a mental health disorder characterized by
persistently depressed mood or loss of interest in activities, causing significant impairment in daily life),
difficulty in walking, and osteoarthritis (the cartilage within a joint begins to break down and the underlying
bone begins to change causing reduced function and disability). During a review of Resident 19's Minimum
Data Set (MDS, a resident assessment tool), dated 11/15/2025, the MDS indicated Resident 19's cognitive
skills (processes of thinking and reasoning) for daily decision making was severely impaired (never/rarely
made decisions). The MDS also indicated Resident 19 was dependent on personal hygiene (ability to
maintain personal hygiene, including combing hair, shaving, applying makeup, washing /drying face and
hands). During a review of Resident 19's Care Plan, revised 12/2/2025, the Care Plan indicated Resident
19's Activities of Daily Living (ADL) selfcare deficit and dependence on staff for personal hygiene. The care
plan included interventions for the staff to work around her to accommodate her needs, respect her dignity
and residents' rights. Other interventions were to assist out of bed and help with personal hygiene,
dressing, ask resident her preference, give a choice, provide grooming, and assist with clean clothes daily
as needed. During a concurrent observation and interview on 12/9/2025 at 1:50 PM at the hallway with the
Activity Director (AD), Resident 19 was observed sitting in the wheelchair. Resident 19's left eye was
observed with dry, yellowish colored crusted eye discharge and visible cranberry stains on her white shirt.
AD stated Resident 19 should be wearing a shirt without stains and her eyes should have been cleaned
and free from discharge. During an interview on 12/10/2025 at 1:38 PM with the licensed vocational nurse 2
(LVN 2), LVN 2 stated the residents should not have any food stains on their clothes. LVN 2 stated,

review of Resident 28's Care Plan, dated 5/23/2025, Resident 28's Care Plan indicated Resident 23 was at
risk for pressure ulcer (localized damage to the skin and/or underlying tissue usually over a bony
prominence) and indicated an intervention for Resident 28 to have a LAL with the setting to be at the
resident's current weight to maintain skin integrity. During an observation on 12/9/2025 at 9:20 AM inside
Resident 28's room, Resident 28 was observed asleep in bed with her LAL setting observed to be set to
around 320 lbs. During an interview on 12/11/2025 at 2:42 PM with Treatment Nurse (TN), TN stated both
she and the License Vocational Nurses (LVNs) are in charge of ensuring the resident's LAL was in the
correct setting. TN added the settings correlate with the resident's weight. During a concurrent interview
and record review on 12/11/2025 at 2:45 PM with TN, Resident 28's electronic medical record (EMR; a
digital version of a resident's paper chart containing health history, diagnoses, medications, allergies and
treatment plans all stored on a computer) dated 12/17/2023 to 12/11/2025 was reviewed. Resident 28's
EMR indicated Resident 28's current weight was 86.3 lbs. TN stated Resident 28's LAL being on the setting
of 320 lbs on 12/9/2025 was not correct and defeats the purpose of the LAL which is to evenly distribute the
resident's weight on the mattress. TN further stated if the LAL setting is not correct, it can put more
pressure on the resident's bony prominences (where the bone is more noticeable or sticks out that can be
felt easily and is at higher risk for pressure sores) which can lead to skin breakdown (damage to the skin
and underlying tissue, ranging from minor scrapes to severe pressure ulcers caused by factors including
prolonged pressure, friction, and moisture). During an interview on 12/12/2025 at 9:39 AM with the ADON,
ADON stated the purpose of a LAL was to provide optimal healing for skin breakdown and even distribution
around the weight of the resident. The ADON stated Resident 28's LAL being set to 300 lbs or more poses
a risk of the mattress being too firm and can cause the skin breakdown over the resident's bony
prominences. During a review of the facility's policy and procedure (P&P) titled, Low Air Loss Mattress,
dated 6/30/2022, the P&P indicated the Low Air Loss system is a high quality and affordable air support
surface suitable for very high-risk pressure ulcer prevention and treatment. It has been specifically designed

Level of Harm - Minimal harm
or potential for actual harm
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
observation, interview and record review, the facility failed to measure the external catheter length
(insertion site to hub) for Peripherally Inserted Central Catheter (PICC, a thin, flexible tube inserted into a
small arm vein and guided to a large central vein near the heart) line for one of 28 sampled residents
(Resident 24), in accordance with Facility's policy and procedure (P&P) titled PICC Dressing Change. This
failure had the potential to put Resident 28 at risk for PICC line dislodgement (the act of being forced or
moved from a secure, fixed) and developing complications like thrombosis (the formation of a blood clot
[clump of blood] inside a blood vessel [vein or artery] that blocks or slows blood flow), and infection (when
harmful germs invade the body).Findings: During a review of Resident 24's admission Record, it indicated
the resident was admitted to the facility on [DATE], admitting diagnoses of malnutrition, weight loss and
encounter for adjustment and management of vascular access device (a thin, flexible tube placed into a
blood vessel to provide long-term or repeated access for giving medications, fluids and nutrition). During a
review of Resident 24's Minimum Data Set (MDS - a resident assessment tool) dated 12/1/2025, the MDS
indicated Resident 24's cognitive skills for daily decision making was modified independence (some
difficulty in new situations only). The MDS indicated Resident 24 was dependent (helper does all the effort)
with eating, oral hygiene, toileting hygiene, shower, upper body dressing, lower body dressing, putting
on/off footwear and personal hygiene. During a review of Resident 24's Order Summary Report. dated
11/28/2025, indicated the following orders:- order of PICC line insertion with double lumen right upper arm,
ordered on 11/26/2025.- Total Parenteral Nutrition (TPN, a way to give a person complete liquid nutrition
directly into a vein via a catheter) feeding, infusion rate of 64 milliliters (ml, unit of measurement) per hour
for 24 hours, total volume of 1536 ml per day, ordered on 11/26/2025. During a review of Resident 24's
Care Plan titled TPN, dated 11/26/2025, indicated an approach to measure the external catheter length for
PICC upon admission and with each dressing change. During a review of TPN/ Peripheral Parenteral
Nutrition (PPN, short-term intravenous [a medical method to deliver fluids, meds, nutrients] feeding)
medication record (same as intravenous therapy medication record), indicated an order for central line
dressing, securement device, cap change and measure external catheter length every seven days, with
order date of 12/5/2025. During a review of Resident 24's intravenous therapy medication record, for the
month of December 2025, it indicated Resident 24 has a right upper arm PICC line that was inserted on
11/26/2025, with two lumens (port), and external catheter length of 39 centimeters. It also indicated the
PICC line dressing, secure device, cap change and measure external catheter length every 7 days and as
needed was signed on 12/9/2025 by Registered Nurse 1 (RN 1). The record did not indicate a PICC line's
external catheter measurement for 12/9/2025. During an observation on 12/9/2025 at 2:02 PM, Resident 24
was in bed, with ongoing IV therapy connected to the resident's PICC line. During an observation on
12/10/2025 at 11 AM, Resident 24's PICC line in right upper arm was observed. PICC line dressing was
dated 12/9/2025. During a concurrent record review of Resident 24's TPN/PPN medication record (same as
intravenous therapy medication record) for the month of December 2025, and an interview with MDS nurse
(MDSN) on 12/12/2025 at 10:30 AM, MDSN verified there is no measurement of Resident 24's external
catheter documented on 12/9/2025. MDSN stated it is important to measure the external catheter length
every after dressing changed to ensure that the PICC line was not dislodged during dressing change.
During a concurrent record review of Resident 24's medical records dated 12/9/2025 to 12/12/2025, and an
interview with the Assistant Director of Nursing (ADON) on 12/12/2025 at 10:43 AM, the ADON stated there

24's progress notes on 12/9/2025 at 11:25 PM that PICC line dressing was changed, site clean, dry, and
intact, no redness, swelling or pain noted. The ADON stated RN 1 did not and should have documented the
length of the external catheter on that note. The ADON stated it was important to measure the external
catheter length and compare it to the baseline measurement on 11/26/2026 that was 39 cm, to ensure the
length is the same, and that there was no accidental pulling of the catheter during dressing change
procedure. During a review of Facility's P&P titled PICC Dressing Change, dated March 2023, indicated

Procure food from sources approved or considered satisfactory and store, prepare, distribute and serve
food in accordance with professional standards.
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
observation, interview, and record review, the facility failed to ensure proper food handling and the food
service area was maintained in a clean and sanitary manner in accordance with the facility's policy and
procedure (P&P) by failing to ensure:1. One dented saltshaker was free of food residue and was not
crusted.2. One pepper shaker did not contain red food residue and had a dirty label.3. 3 burgundy plate
covers were not peeling, chipped, and scratched. 4. 27 black food trays were not peeling and chipped.
These deficient practices have the potential to result in pathogen (germ) exposure to residents, which could
place the residents at risk for developing foodborne illness ([food poisoning] with symptoms including upset
stomach, stomach cramps, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, and fever) and can lead to other serious medical
complications and hospitalization.Findings: During an observation in the kitchen at 8:07 AM, the saltshaker
was observed to be dented and dirty with crusted food residue. During an observation in Dining room
[ROOM NUMBER] at 12/11/2025 at 8:01 AM, 3 burgundy plate covers were observed to be peeling,
chipped, and scratched. During an observation in Dining room [ROOM NUMBER] at 12/11/2025 at 11:49
AM, 27 black serving trays were observed to be peeling and chipped. During a concurrent observation and
interview on 12/12/2025 at 10:06 AM with the Assistant Director of Nursing (ADON), the ADON stated that
the saltshaker appeared rusted, dented, and crusted with dry left-over food residue. The ADON added the
saltshaker's lid area was dirty with brown colored food residue. During a concurrent observation and
interview on 12/12/2025 at 10:07 AM with the ADON, the ADON stated the pepper shaker was cracked and
contained green colored food residue. ADON also stated this was unsanitary (dirty or unhealthy and
therefore likely to cause disease). During a concurrent observation and interview on 12/12/2025 at 10:10
AM with the ADON, ADON stated the burgundy plate covers showed wear and tear (deterioration or
damage of objects), with multiple areas of rubber peeling from the lid and rough edges. The ADON stated
this was not acceptable. During a concurrent observation and interview on 12/12/2025 at 10:12 AM with the
ADON, the ADON stated the black food trays had uneven edges, appears melted and chipped with
exposed brown -color metal. ADON stated these were not acceptable, as they can possibly harbor bacteria.
ADON also stated the plastic peel can possibly fall in the food. ADON also stated the residents can possibly
have plastic ingestion (eating plastic) that can cause sickness or harm to residents. During a concurrent
observation and interview on 12/12/2025 at 10:38 AM with the Registered Dietitian (RD) and the Director of
Dining (DD), the RD stated metal saltshaker was dirty, crusted with brown colored food residue, and
dented. The DD stated pepper shaker contained red food residue and had a dirty label. The DD confirmed
the burgundy plate covers were observed to be peeling, chipped, and scratched and the black serving trays
in Dining room [ROOM NUMBER] were observed to be peeling and chipped. The RD stated this condition
was 100 percent unacceptable. RD stated this increased the risk for potential cuts to the residents and staff
and could cause material contamination (foreign or unsafe materials get into the food or onto contact
surfaces, making the food unsafe to eat). RD also stated that plastic peel could be ingested by residents
and that damaged surface could harbor bacteria. During a concurrent interview and record review on
12/12/2025 at 10:50 AM with the RD, the facility's P&P titled, Sanitation and Infection Control Receiving and
Storage, revised 5/2023 was reviewed. The RD stated that the P&P indicated all items are to be checked to
detect unacceptable items, example dented, swollen or rusted can. During a concurrent interview and
record review on 12/12/2025 at 10:52 AM with the RD, the facility's P&P titled, Damage Dishware, revised

hazardous substances and/or environments) prior to entering a contact isolation (a transmission based
precaution used to stop germs from spreading through direct touch with a resident or indirect touch with
contaminated objects in their environment) room for two (2) of nine (9) sampled residents (Residents 28
and 45) in accordance with the facility's policy and procedure (P&P) This failure had the potential to result
in the spread of infection to other residents in the facility.Findings:1. During a review of Resident 28's
admission Record, the admission Record indicated the resident was initially admitted to the facility on
[DATE] and readmitted [DATE] with diagnoses of cerebral ischemia (when blood flow to the brain is
reduced, cutting off oxygen and nutrients, which can damage or kill brain cells) and dementia (a
progressive state of decline in mental abilities) with anxiety (a normal feeling of unease, worry or fear often
a reaction to stress).During a review of Resident 28's Minimum Data Set (MDS - a resident assessment
tool), dated 11/23/2025, the MDS indicated the resident was severely impaired (never/rarely made
decision) with cognitive (ability to think, remember, and reason) skills for daily decision making. Resident 28
was dependent (helper does all of the effort. Resident does none of the effort to complete the activity. Or
the assistance of 2 or more helpers is required for the resident to complete the activity) with
chair/bed-to-chair transfers, rolling left and right in bed, upper and lower body dressing (the ability to dress

During a review of Resident 45's admission Record, the admission Record indicated the resident was
initially admitted to the facility on [DATE] and readmitted [DATE] with diagnoses of atherosclerotic (the
buildup of fats and cholesterol in the artery [blood vessel] walls) heart disease (problems with the heart or
blood vessels) of native (original) coronary artery (one of the heart's blood vessels that wraps around it's
surface, branching off the aorta [the body's largest artery] to deliver vital oxygen-rich blood to the heart
muscle itself) without angina pectoris (chest pain or discomfort) and dementia. During a review of Resident
45's MDS, dated [DATE], the MDS indicated the resident was severely impaired with cognitive skills for daily
decision making. Resident 45 needed supervision or touching assistance (helper provides verbal cues
and/or touching/ steadying and/or contact guard assistance as resident completes activity) with walking 10
and 50 feet and with putting on/taking off footwear. Resident 45 needed setup or clean-up assistance
(helper sets up or cleans up; resident completes activity) with upper and lower body dressing and eating
and was independent with chair/bed-to-chair transfers, going from sitting to standing, personal hygiene and
eating. During a review of Resident 45's Order Summary Report, dated 12/12/2025, Resident 45's Order
Summary Report indicated an order initiated 12/5/2025 to place Resident 45 on contact isolation due to
Herpes Zoster (Shingles; a painful, blistering rash caused by the reactivation of the chickenpox virus

was not wearing a gown while in Residents 28 and 45's room while cleaning up around the bedside and
changing the linen for Resident 45. CNA 1 stated he thought he only had to wear a gown while providing
the residents with direct care. During an interview on 12/10/2025 at 3:13 PM with Infection Preventionist
(IP), IP stated Resident 45 was on contact isolation for having shingles and before entering the room, staff
are expected to don full PPE including a gown and gloves regardless of what they are doing inside the
room. IP stated if staff do not properly don PPE prior to entering the room, it poses a risk for that staff
member, especially if they are not vaccinated for chickenpox to contact the chickenpox virus themselves as
well as spreading it to another resident, their co-workers or at home. During a concurrent observation and
interview on 12/11/2025 at 10:40 AM outside the doorway of Residents 28 and 45's room, Licensed
Vocational Nurse 1 (LVN 1) was observed inside the room not wearing a gown picking up something off the

stated that she should have been wearing a gown prior to entering Residents 28 and 45's room earlier that
day since the room is under contact isolation and her not wearing a gown poses a risk for spreading
infection. During an interview on 12/12/2025 at 9:34 AM with the Assistant Director of Nursing (ADON),
ADON stated the expectation of staff before entering a contact isolation room is to don full PPE (gown and
gloves), regardless of what they plan to do inside the room to create a barrier for infection so that they do
not take whatever the resident may have outside of the room to the other residents and staff. During a
review of the facility's policy and procedure (P&P) titled, Infection Prevention and Control - Transmission
Based Precautions, revised 10/2022, the P&P indicated:A. Contact - The purpose of contact precautions is
to prevent transmission of infections that are spread by direct (e.g. [for example] person-to-person) or
indirect contact with the resident or environment. Contact precautions require the use of appropriate
Personal Protective Equipment (PPE), including a gown and gloves upon entering the room or making
contact with the resident or the resident environment.B. Gownsa. [NAME] gown upon entry into the room or
cubicle.b. Gowns should also be worn when body contact with the environmental surfaces and items in the
room that may be contaminated is anticipated.

receiving assistance from facility staff which could lead to a fall or accident.1. During a review of Resident
65's admission Record, the admission Record indicated the resident was initially admitted to the facility on
[DATE] and readmitted [DATE] with diagnoses of obstructive hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (when the heart
muscle thickens abnormally making it hard for it to pump blood out to the body, essentially blocking the
outflow) and generalized muscle weakness (a widespread lack of strength affecting many muscles
throughout the body).During a review of Resident 65'S Minimum Data Set (MDS - a resident assessment
tool), dated 12/11/2025, the MDS indicated the resident had intact (ability to think, remember, and reason)
cognitive skills for daily decision making. Resident 65 was dependent (helper does all of the effort. Resident
does none of the effort to complete the activity or the assistance of 2 or more helpers is required for the
resident to complete the activity) with personal hygiene. Resident 65 needed partial/moderate assistance
(helper does less than half the effort) with walking 10 and 50 feet, chair/bed-to-chair transfers, going from
lying down to sitting on the side of the bed, and upper and lower body dressing (the ability to dress and
undress above and below the waist). Resident 65 needed supervision or touching assistance (helper
provides verbal cues and/or touching/steadying and/or contact guard assistance as resident completes
activity) with rolling left and right in bed and needed setup or clean-up assistance (helper sets up and
cleans up; resident completes activity) with eating. During a review of Resident 65's Care Plan, dated
12/6/2025, Resident 65's Care Plan indicated Resident 65 was at high risk for falls related to gait/balance
problems and vision/hearing problems. The care plan interventions included were to ensure the resident's
call light to be within reach and encourage the resident to use it for assistance as needed. The care plan
indicated Resident 65 needs prompt response to all requests for assistance.During a concurrent
observation in Resident 65 ‘s room and interview on 12/9/2025 at 8:53 AM, Resident 65 was observed in
bed. Resident 65's call light was observed wrapped around and hanging off the left siderail (adjustable
metal or rigid plastic bars that attach to the bed) of the resident's bed and touching the floor. Resident 65
stated she could not reach the call light and that she has a hard time reaching for things.During a
concurrent observation and interview on 12/9/2025 at 9:06 AM with Licensed Vocational Nurse 1 (LVN 1)
inside Resident 65's room, Resident 65's call light was observed wrapped around and hanging off the left
siderail of Resident 65's bed and touching the floor. LVN 1 stated Resident 65's call light was hanging off
the left side of Resident 65's bed and was not within reach. During an interview on 12/10/2025 at 1:19 PM
with LVN 1, LVN 1 stated the purpose of a call light is for the residents to be able to call for help and get
assistance if needed and if a resident's call light is out of reach, it poses a risk for the resident to get up out
of bed without assistance and fall. During an interview on 12/12/2025 at 9:32 AM with Assistant Director of
Nursing (ADON), ADON stated the purpose of a call light is by being the priority safety lifeline of the
resident to reach the staff in case of an emergency and if it is not within reach, then the resident cannot be
heard and could potentially sustain a fall or change of condition. 2. During a review of Resident 6's
admission Record, the admission Record indicated the resident was initially admitted to the facility on
[DATE] with diagnoses of muscle weakness, Acute kidney failure (when the kidneys suddenly become
unable to filter waste products from the body), edema (swelling caused by too much fluid trapped in the
