medical or surgical treatment and to formulate an advance directive if he or she chooses to do so, written
information about the right to accept or refuse medical or surgical treatment, and the right to formulate an
advance directive is provided in a manner that is easily understood by the resident or representative,
written information includes a description of the facility's policies to implement advance directives and
applicable state law. If the resident or representative indicates that he or she has not established advance
directives, the facility staff will offer assistance in establishing advance directives.

Notify the resident or the resident’s representative in writing how long the nursing home will hold the
resident’s bed in cases of transfer to a hospital or therapeutic leave.
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
record reviews, interviews, and facility policy review, the facility failed to ensure residents and/or their

six residents reviewed for hospitalizations (Resident (R) 2, R96, R130, and R148) out of a total sample of
36 residents. This failure had the potential for the residents to be denied return to their original room or
denial of the resident returning to the facility.
Findings include:
Review of the facility policy titled Bed Holds and Returns, dated October 2023 indicated All
residents/representatives are provided written information regarding the facility and state bed-hold policies,
which address holding or reserving a resident's bed during periods of absence (hospitalization or
therapeutic leave). Residents, regardless of payer source, are provided written notice about these policies
at least twice: well in advance of any transfer (e.g., in the admission packet); and at the time of transfer (or,
if the transfer was an emergency, within 24 hours,) and The written bed-hold notices provided to the
residents/representatives explain in detail:
a. the duration of the state bed-hold policy, if any, during which the resident is permitted to return and
resume residence in the facility; b. the reserve bed payment policy as indicated by the state plan (for
Medicaid residents); and c. the facility policy regarding bed-hold periods.
Review of the undated, facility admission packet, provided by the facility, revealed, If you must be
transferred to an acute hospital for seven days or less, we will notify you or your representative that we are
willing to hold your bed. There was no mention of the bed hold notice being provided in writing upon
transfer to the resident or the resident representative.

**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
observation, interview, record review, and facility policy review, the facility failed to develop comprehensive
care plans that reflected the residents' current status for 10 residents (Resident (R) 5, R9, R21, R33, R70,
R93, R96, R148, R161, and R420) of 38 sampled residents. The residents' care plans were developed;
however, the care plan did not reflect the residents' right to refuse treatment (Do Not Resuscitate (DNR))
and did not reflect residents' sex offender registry status. These failures had the potential for staff not to be
informed of residents' care needs or offender history of residents.
Findings include:

Level of Harm - Minimal harm
or potential for actual harm
Based on observation, interview, facility policy review, the facility failed to implement their water
management plan and failed to conduct an assessment to identify where bacterium Legionella and other
waterborne pathogens could grow. This had the potential to affect all residents in the facility who consumed
water.
Residents Affected - Many
Findings include:
Review of the facility's policy titled Legionella Water Management Program, dated 09/2022, revealed, Our
facility is committed to the prevention, detection and control of water-borne contaminants, including
Legionella 3. The purposes of the water management program are to identify areas in the water system
where Legionella bacteria can grow and spread, and to reduce the risk of Legionnaire's disease .d. The
identification of situations that can lead to Legionella growth, such as: (1) construction; (2) water main
breaks; (3) changes in municipal water quality; (a) the presence of biofilm, scale, or sediment; (5) water
temperature fluctuations; (6) water pressure changes; (7) water stagnation; and (8) inadequate disinfection .
e. Specific measures used to control the introduction and/or spread of Legionella (e.g., temperature,
disinfectants); f. The control limits or parameters that are acceptable and that are monitored; g. A diagram of
where control measures are applied; h. A system to monitor control limits and the effectiveness of control
measures; i. A plan for when control limits are not met and/or control measures are not effective; and j.
Documentation of the program.
Review of the testing for Legionella, dated 08/03/23, provided by the facility and completed by an outside
company revealed the results of a sample taken from the kitchen sink, potable type, included 0.05 CFU/mL
with the final results listed as ND [none detected]. Additional information included Legionella identification is
carried out using a direct fluorescent antibody (DFA) for Legionella pneumophila (serogroups 1-14), a DFA
for L. pneumophila serogroup 1 (LP1) and a DFA for 15 other Legionella species. L. pneumophila (2-14) has
tested positive by DFA for L. pneumophila but negative for LP1. Legionella spp. have tested negative by
DFA but are positive for growth on selective media. ND = None Detected/Below LOD. The limit of detection
(LOD) is the lowest reportable CFU/mL count and is dependent on the sample volume processed and the
dilutions used during testing .
During an observation and interview on 06/21/24 at 4:36 PM, the facility's laundry room revealed the floor
tiles under the wash machine on the right and numerous floor tiles next to the machine were noted to be
wet, stained, and warped. The Account Manager (AM) who oversaw the laundry services was asked about
the tiles and stated a pipe was leaking under the washer. AM confirmed the floor stayed wet and tiles were
ruined due to the constant exposure to the water leaking. The AM stated staff mop the floor several times
per shift to keep any standing water from occurring and growing microorganisms. The AM stated
management was aware of the leak.
During an interview on 06/21/24 at 5:26 PM, the Maintenance Supervisor (MS) was asked what plan was in
place to assess and monitor for Legionella. MS stated he didn't assess or monitor for Legionella. He only
checked the water temperatures. MS stated he was not aware of the regulation. MS was asked if he
routinely flushed or cleaned drains and pipes such as showers and sinks to minimize standing water in the
curved part of the pipes [P traps]. MS stated he only used a snake [a tool used to remove clogs in drains] to
clean out debris in shower drains and pipe but did not use hot water, disinfectant, or complete visual
inspections of drains or pipes. MS stated the ice machine was cleaned and sanitized monthly by an outside
company. MS was asked about the water leak in the laundry room and MS stated he was not aware of it.
MS stated he did bring in an outside company around May 2023 who
