Allow resident to participate in the development and implementation of his or her person-centered plan of care.
Based on interview and record review, the facility failed to ensure person centered, comprehensive care for seven residents (Resident 7, Resident 6, Resident 3, Resident 39, Resident 24, Resident 34, and Resident 10) out of a census of 36 when the Interdisciplinary Team (IDT-a group of healthcare professionals collaborating to develop and implement a resident centered treatment plan) did not plan quarterly care conferences or involve residents and/or Responsible Party (RP, a person or entity responsible for making healthcare decisions).These failures resulted in lost opportunities for the residents to be included in decisions regarding their care, treatment and interventions.Findings: A review of Resident 7's Multidisciplinary Care Conference (MCC), dated 9/10/24, indicated a quarterly care conference was held without Resident 7's RP present. A further review of Resident 7's medical chart indicated Resident 7 had no quarterly care conference held for the 4th quarter of 2024. A review of Resident 6's MCC, dated 10/23/24, indicated a quarterly care conference was held without Resident 5 nor Resident 5's RP present. A further review of Resident 5's medical chart indicated Resident had no quarterly care conferences for the first or second quarter of 2025. A review of Resident 3's MCC, dated 3/4/25, indicated a quarterly care conference was held without Resident 3 nor Resident 3's RP present.

During an interview on 9/22/25 at 8:42 a.m., the Ombudsman (OMS) stated she had not attended any care conferences recently due to turnovers in leadership. During an interview on 9/22/25 at 11:12 a.m. Resident 39 said, I usually get care conferences where they discuss my care but not lately. During a concurrent record review and interview on 9/25/25 at approximately 12:30 p.m., evidence of Resident 39's last care conference was requested. The Social Services Director (SSS) verified Resident 39 had no care conference since 9/20/24. During a concurrent interview and record review on 9/22/25 at 2:46 p.m., Resident 6's daughter stated she was his RP. She stated she had not been invited to participate in a care conference in almost a year. She stated this concerned her because she wanted to speak with his physician and the team about Resident 6's health status. A review of Resident 6's medical chart indicated no quarterly care conference was held in the 4th quarter of 2024. During a record review on 9/23/25 of Resident 24's chart, MCC forms indicated no quarterly care

Ensure residents do not lose the ability to perform activities of daily living unless there is a medical reason.
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 provide treatment and service to maintain or improve mobility for one resident (Resident 38) out of a census of 36 when Resident 38 did not receive Restorative Nurse Assistance (RNA-program designed to help residents maintain or regain maximum physical potential) sessions as ordered and was not evaluated for proper wheelchair height.This failure decreased the facility's potential to ensure Resident 38's ability to do activities of daily living (ADL, basic self-care tasks that are typically performed independently daily, i.e. dressing, bathing, toileting) did not diminish.Findings:A review of Resident 38's admission record indicated Resident 38 was admitted to the facility on [DATE] with a primary diagnosis of infection and inflammatory (part of the body becoming red, swollen, hot and often painful) reaction due to internal right hip prosthesis (artificial body part).A review of Resident 38's Section F-Preferences for Customary Routine and Activities of the Minimum Data Set (MDS-a federally mandated assessment tool) dated 6/26/25 indicated Resident 38 thought it was very important for him to participate in his favorite activities. A further review of this assessment indicated Resident 38 thought it was somewhat important for him to get fresh air when the weather was good and to participate in group activities with people.A review of Resident 38's Order Details, dated 7/18/25, indicated the RNA program was ordered for Resident 38 as follows, Active Range of Motion [resident moving joints through full range of motion without therapist assistance] to bilateral [both] extremities, ambulating with front rolling walker; 3 episodes per week.A review of Resident 38's progress note dated 7/29/25 at 4:18 p.m., indicated Resident 38 had joined the RNA program. A review of Resident 38's RNA documentation from 7/31/25 to 9/23/25 indicated Resident 38 did not receive RNA services three times per week as ordered.During a concurrent observation and interview on 9/22/25 at 9:23 a.m., Resident 38 was lying in bed with a hospital gown on with a healed amputation to Resident 38's right leg and partial hip area. Resident 38 stated he did not get out of bed much; however, would get out of bed and participate in more activities if his wheelchair was not so low. Resident 38 stated the wheelchair belonged to his sister-in-law, but it (the wheelchair) was too low for him to safely transfer out of his bed and propel himself out of the room. A wheelchair was observed folded and propped up against the wall. Resident 38 stated he was bored at times.During an interview on 9/23/25 at 11:30 a.m., the Administrator (ADM) stated the Physical Therapist (PT) was shared between three buildings and would come to the building when needed. The ADM further stated he cannot estimate how often PT worked at the facility. During an interview on 9/23/25, at 11:35 a.m., the PT stated evaluations for wheelchair height could be determined after the resident's weight, height and cognitive (relating to processes of thinking and reasoning) impairment was assessed. The PT further stated not having a wheelchair at the proper height posed a safety hazard for residents to fall and accidents occurred. During an interview on 9/24/25 at 12:50 p.m., the RNA stated she would try to work with Resident 38 two or three times per week but was occasionally pulled from her RNA duties to perform Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA) duties. RNA stated Resident 38's wheelchair is too low for him, and the PT was the only discipline who could determine a safe wheelchair height. The RNA further stated if a wheelchair was too low, a resident can get their legs caught up in the wheels or it would cause the resident to sit funny which would cause discomfort after sitting for a while.A review of the facility's document titled Restorative Nursing Program Guidelines, dated September 2019, indicated, Restorative care implies that the possibility for progress exists and that improvement can be expected.This program actively focuses on achieving and maintaining optimal physical, mental, and psychosocial functioning.

Provide pharmaceutical services to meet the needs of each resident and employ or obtain the services of a licensed pharmacist.
Based on observation, interview, and record review, the facility failed to ensure accurate reconciliation, accountability and disposition (the process of returning and/or destroying unused medications) of controlled medications (medications with high potential for abuse or addiction) and medication administration for a census of 39 residents when:Random controlled medication audits for two residents (Resident 20, and Resident 36) did not reconcile. The medications were signed out of Individual Narcotic Record (INR, an inventory sheet that keeps record of the usage of controlled medications) but not documented on the Medication Administration Record (MAR) to indicate they were given to the residents; and,The Controlled Substance Disposition Log was not provided for medications that were destroyed on 7/17/25 and 8/21/25.These failures resulted in the facility not having an accurate accountability of controlled substances and increased the potential for diversion.Findings:1.The controlled medication record for two random residents (Resident 20 and Resident 36) who received as needed controlled medications were requested for review during the survey.A review of Resident 20's Order Summary Report [OSR], dated 4/10/25, indicated, Hydrocodone- Acetaminophen Tablet 5-325 mg: Give 1 tablet by mouth every 6 hours as needed for pain.A review of Resident 20's INR for Hydrocodone-Acetaminophen Tablet 5-325mg, indicated nursing staff had removed the following from the medication cart and documented on the INR without documenting the respective administration on the MAR: One tablet on 9/15/25 at 7:30 p.m., one tablet on 9/18/25 at 6:45 p.m., one tablet on 9/20/25 at 5:30 a.m., and one tablet on 9/22/25 at 6:30 p.m.A review of Resident 36's OSR dated 6/21/24, indicated, oxycodone HCI Oral Tablet 5 mg: Give 1 tablet by mouth every 4 hours as needed.A review of Resident 36's INR for Oxycodone 5 mg, indicated the nursing staff had removed the following from the medication cart and documented on the INR without documenting the respective administration on the MAR: One tablet on 9/1/25 at 8 p.m., one tablet on 9/3/25 at 5 p.m., one tablet on 9/15/25 at 8:12 a.m., and one tablet on 9/16/25 at 8 p.m. The MAR indicated one tablet was given to the resident on 9/21/25, but this medication was not removed from the medication cart.In an interview on 9/23/25 at 1:40 p.m. Licensed Nurse 2 (LN 2) stated when narcotics are given, they are signed out in the INR and documented in the MAR.During a concurrent interview and record review on 9/23/25 at 1:45 p.m. of Resident 20 and Resident 36's narcotic documentation with the Director of Nursing (DON), the DON confirmed the INR did not match the MAR. The DON stated she expected staff to follow the policy and document the narcotic in the MAR, If they [nurses] take it, they have to say what they did with it.A review of the facility's policy and procedure (P&P) titled, Medication- Administration, dated 6/25, indicated, .The time and dose of the medication or treatment administered to the resident will be recorded in the resident's individual medication record by the person who administered the medication or treatment.2. During a review of a facility provided document titled, CONTROLLED SUBSTANCE DISPOSITION LOG, the log indicated, Instructions: Upon receipt of the Narcotic Medication from the licensed nurse.the DON will complete this disposition log. The DON will also sign the Narcotic Bound Book. This log is maintained in a binder inside the Narcotic Drawer in the DONs office.A concurrent interview and record review on 9/24/25 at 9:17 a.m. of the narcotic disposition binder was conducted with the DON. The Controlled Substance Disposition Log for July and August were not in the binder. The DON confirmed the logs for both 7/17/25 and 8/21/25 were missing from the binder and stated it was important to keep an accurate account of narcotics. The DON stated, We need to know what comes in and what goes out and that nothing was taken. The DON stated she expected to see an accurate disposition record.In an interview on 9/24/25 at 12:18 p.m. the Regional Quality Management Consultant (RQMC) confirmed the logs were unable to be located. The RQMC stated it was important to have the
