F 0578 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Some Honor the resident's right to request, refuse, and/or discontinue treatment, to participate in or refuse to participate in experimental research, and to formulate an advance directive. **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 11, Resident 59 and Resident 73) had consistent and accurate records and information regarding Advance Directives (AD - legal document indicating resident preference on end-of-life treatment decisions) filed in the resident's medical records (chart).This failure had the potential to cause confusion among staff and Resident 11, Resident 59 and Resident 73 to receive inappropriate or medically unnecessary care and/or treatment or services regarding life-sustaining treatment.Findings:a. During a review of Resident 11's admission Record (AR), the AR indicated, Resident 11 was originally admitted to the facility on [DATE] and readmitted on [DATE] with multiple diagnoses including unspecified psychosis (a severe mental condition in which thought, and emotions are so affected that contact is lost with reality) not due to a substance or known physiological condition, and abnormalities of gait and mobility (when a person is unable to walk in a typical way).During a review of Resident 11's undated History and Physical (H&P), the H&P indicated, Resident 11 did not have decision making capacity.During a review of Resident 11's Minimum Data Set (MDS - a resident assessment tool), dated 9/25/2025, the MDS indicated, Resident 11's cognitive skills (ability to think and process information) for daily decision making were moderately impaired. b. During a review of Resident 59's AR, the AR indicated, Resident 59 was originally admitted to the facility on [DATE] and readmitted on [DATE] with multiple diagnoses including unspecified atrial fibrillation (an irregular heartbeat) and unspecified dementia (a progressive state of decline in mental abilities).During a review of Resident 59's H&P, dated 11/13/2025, the H&P indicated Resident 59 did not have the capacity to make own decisions.During a review of Resident 59's MDS, dated [DATE], the MDS indicated Resident 59's cognitive skills for daily decision making were moderately impaired. c. During a review of Resident 73's AR, the AR indicated Resident 73 was originally admitted to the facility on [DATE] and readmitted on [DATE] with multiple diagnoses including sepsis (a life-threatening blood infection) and depression (a mood disorder that causes a persistent feeling of sadness and loss of interest).During a review of Resident 73's MDS, dated [DATE], the MDS indicated Resident 73's cognitive skills for daily decision making were independent (decisions consistent/reasonable). During a review of Resident 73's H&P, dated 12/1/2025, the H&P indicated, Resident 73 had the capacity to make own decisions.During a concurrent interview and record review on 12/3/2025 at 3:22 PM with the Social Services Coordinator (SSC), Resident 11, Resident 59, and Resident 73's charts were reviewed. When asked, what is an AD? The SSD stated, an AD was when a resident appointed someone to make medical decisions in the event the resident could no longer make medical decisions. Resident 11's chart had an Advance Directive Acknowledgement (ADA), form dated 10/17/2024 and an ADA dated 11/28/2025. The ADA dated 10/17/2024 indicated Resident 11 had not executed an AD. The ADA dated 11/28/2025 indicated Resident 11 had executed an AD. The SSC stated there was no copy (continued on next page) Any deficiency statement ending with an asterisk (*) denotes a deficiency which the institution may be excused from correcting providing it is determined that other safeguards provide sufficient protection to the patients. (See instructions.) Except for nursing homes, the findings stated above are disclosable 90 days following the date of survey whether or not a plan of correction is provided. For nursing homes, the above findings and plans of correction are disclosable 14 days following the date these documents are made available to the facility.

F 0578 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Some FORM CMS-2567 (02/99) Previous Versions Obsolete of an AD in Resident 11's chart. The SSC stated there was an error in the ADA dated 11/28/2025. Resident 11's chart had a blank Physician Orders for Life-Sustaining Treatment (POLST - a form that contains written medical orders for healthcare professionals regarding specific medical treatments that can or cannot be done at the end of life). The SSC stated, if the POLST was not filled out, or there was no POLST, the resident was a full code (medical personnel would do everything possible to save your life in a medical emergency). Resident 59's ADA dated 9/17/2025 indicated, Resident 59 had not executed an AD and had a Durable Power of Attorney for Health. An ADA dated 11/13/2025 indicated Resident 59 had executed an AD. Resident 59's chart had a copy of a Durable Financial Power of Attorney (DPOA), dated 2/4/2023. The SSC stated, there was no AD in Resident 59's chart and stated Resident 59's financial DPOA did not address Resident 59's medical wishes, nothing, nothing at all. Resident 73's ADA dated 11/25/2025 was blank and indicated a signature by Registered Nurse Supervisor (RN) 1. The SSC provided the revised copy of Resident 73's ADA, dated 12/3/2025, originally dated 11/25/2025. The SSC stated the revised copy was just completed during today's care meeting. The revised copy indicated, Resident 73 had executed an AD, the option I have not executed an AD was encircled. Resident 73's ADA form indicated the resident had a Durable Power of Attorney for Health. There was no copy of Resident 73's AD in the chart. The SSC stated the SSC made a mistake filling out the ADA form. Resident 73's POLST dated 11/25/2025 was incomplete. The SSC provided another copy of Resident 73's POLST, dated 10/23/2025 that was not in Resident 73's chart. The POLST dated 10/23/2025 indicated, an AD dated 12/24/2009 was available and reviewed and no AD. The POLST indicated, the POLST complemented an AD and was not intended to replace that document [AD]. The SSC stated, Resident 73 did not have a DPOA indicating health advance directives, only financial. The SSC lined out the word Health from the Durable Power of Attorney for Health on the ADA documents for Resident 59 and Resident 73 and wrote Financial and encircled SSC's initials. The SSC stated, ensuring the records in the chart were filled out accurately was important in the event of an emergency, and for staff to know how to act properly and knew what to do with the resident and how to care for the resident.During a review of the facility's SSC Job Description (JD), date revised 6/2021, the JD indicated one of the essential duties and responsibilities of the SSC included completing advance directives with accurate and complete documentation when appropriate with referral to local Ombudsman for Durable Power of Attorney for Health Care, etc.During a review of the facility's policy and procedure (P&P) titled, Residents' Rights Regarding Treatment and Advance Directives, date revised 1/2025, the P&P indicated the facility supported and facilitated a resident's right to request, refuse and/or discontinue medical or surgical treatment and to formulate advance directives. The P&P indicated, upon admission, should the residents have an advance directive, copies would be made and placed on the chart as well as communicated to the staff.During a review of the facility's P&P titled, Completion and Management of POLST Forms, date revised 7/2025, the P&P indicated, it was the policy of the facility to ensure the POLST was properly completed, signed, stored, communicated, honored, and reviewed.

F 0605 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Some Prevent the use of unnecessary psychotropic medications or use medications that may restrain a resident's ability to function. Based on interview and record review, the facility failed to ensure that physician orders for PRN (on as-needed basis) psychotropic drugs (a substance that affect the mind, emotions, and behavior) for Lorazepam (a commonly used drug to reduce anxiety and agitation) included the required 14-day stop-date for two of five sampled residents (Residents 98 and 101).This failure had the potential to result in unnecessary or prolonged exposure to psychotropic medications, risk of adverse drug reactions, oversedation, increased fall risk, and diminished ability to evaluate the resident's ongoing need for the medication.Findings:During a review of Resident 101's admission Record (AR), the AR indicated the facility admitted Resident 101 on 6/28/2024, and re-admitted the resident on 11/19/2025, with diagnoses including muscle weakness, difficulty in walking, and anxiety (a natural feeling of worry, fear, or unease about future events) disorder. During a review of Resident 101's Minimum Data Set (MDS - a resident assessment tool), dated 11/26/2025, the MDS indicated Resident 101's cognition (the ability to think and process information) was intact.During a review of Resident 98's AR, the AR indicated the facility admitted Resident 98 on 12/1/2025, with diagnoses including history of falls, anxiety disorder, and difficulty in walking.During a review of Resident 98's Brief Interview for Mental Status (BIMS) Evaluation, dated 12/2/2025, the BIMS indicated Resident 98's cognition was intact.During a review of Resident 98's OSR, dated active as of 12/3/2025, the OSR indicated to administer Lorazepam oral tablet 1mg and to give 1 tablet by mouth every 24 hours PRN for anxiety manifested by verbalizing feeling anxious, dated 12/1/2025. The PRN psychotropic physician order for Lorazepam did not include a 14-day stop date.During a review of Resident 101's Order Summary Report (OSR), dated active as of 12/4/2025, the OSR indicated an order to administer Lorazepam tablet 0.5mg (mg, metric unit of measurement) and to give 1 tablet by mouth every 8 hours PRN for anxiety manifested by verbalizing feeling anxious, dated 11/19/2025. The PRN psychotropic physician order for Lorazepam did not include a 14-day stop date. During a concurrent interview and record review on 12/3/2025 at 3:50 PM, Resident 98's OSR was reviewed with Licensed Vocational Nurse (LVN) 1, LVN 1 stated Resident 98's PRN order for Lorazepam did not include the required 14-day stop date. LVN 1 stated that having a stop date was fundamental because it ensured the provider reassessed the resident's ongoing need for psychotropic medications. LVN 1 stated that without a 14-day stop date, the medication could be used longer than intended, which had the potential to lead to oversedation, increased fall risk, and unnecessary exposure to a psychotropic drug. During a concurrent interview and record review on 12/4/2025 at 1:07 PM, Resident 101's OSR was reviewed with Registered Nurse (RN) 1, RN 1 stated Resident 101's PRN Lorazepam physician order did not include the required 14-day stop date. RN 1 explained that the 14-day limit was important to ensure resident safety and to determine whether the medication was still needed after 14 days. RN 1 stated if the physician wanted to continue the medication beyond the 14 days, a reassessment was required by the physician to ensure the resident's continued need of the medication. RN1 stated that no reassessment had been completed for Resident 101 and the PRN Lorazepam order was placed on 11/19/2025 (the 14th day was 12/3/2025). RN 1 stated, the order was still active and surpassed the required 14-day limit without a physician reassessment of Resident 101.During an interview on 12/5/2025 at 12:57 PM, with the Director of Nursing (DON), the DON stated that physician orders for PRN psychotropic drugs required a 14-day stop date because psychotropic medications required reassessment [from the physician] to ensure the medication remained necessary and safe for the residents. The DON stated that the 14-day limit was important to prevent unnecessary or prolonged use of the medication, to monitor potential side effects, and to ensure the physician reviewed the resident's status before continuing the PRN psychotropic (continued on next page) FORM CMS-2567 (02/99) Previous Versions Obsolete Event ID: Facility ID: 055261 If continuation sheet Page 3 of 33 Printed: 05/15/2026 Form Approved OMB No. 0938-0391 Department of Health & Human Services Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services STATEMENT OF DEFICIENCIES AND PLAN OF CORRECTION (X1) PROVIDER/SUPPLIER/CLIA IDENTIFICATION NUMBER: (X2) MULTIPLE CONSTRUCTION 055261 B.

F 0655 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Few Create and put into place a plan for meeting the resident's most immediate needs within 48 hours of being admitted Based on interview and record review, the facility failed to ensure a baseline care plan (CP) included administration of Lorazepam (a medication used to reduce anxiety [a feeling of worry, fear, or unease about future events] and agitation. A psychotropic drug [a substance that affects the mind, emotions, and behavior]), and Eliquis (anticoagulant, medication used to thin the blood and for clot prevention) for one of five sampled residents (Resident 98). This failure had the potential to result in uncoordinated care, no monitoring for adverse effects (unwanted, uncomfortable, or dangerous effects that a resident may have due to a medication) such as oversedation, increased fall risk, and bleeding complications. The absence of this information in the baseline CP could have led to delays in recognizing changes in condition, ineffective communication among the Interdisciplinary Team (IDT, a team of health care professionals who work together to establish plans of care for residents), and the potential to compromise Resident 98's safety.Findings:During a review of Resident 98's admission Record (AR), the AR indicated the facility admitted Resident 98 on 12/1/2025, with diagnoses including history of falls, anxiety disorder, and atrial fibrillation (a-fib, an irregular and often very rapid heart rhythm).During a review of Resident 98's baseline CP, dated 12/1/2025, the CP did not address Resident 98 was receiving Lorazepam or Eliquis. The CP's Section D indicated medications resident is taking a. psychotropic, f. anticoagulants, both sections were left blank.During a review of Resident 98's Brief Interview for Mental Status (BIMS) Evaluation, dated 12/2/2025, the BIMS indicated Resident 98's cognition (ability to understand and process information) was intact.During a review of Resident 98's Order Summary Report, dated active as of 12/3/2025. The OSR indicated: Lorazepam oral (taken by mouth) tablet 1mg (mg, unit of measurement), give 1 tablet by mouth every 24 hours PRN (as needed) for anxiety manifested by verbalizing feeling anxious, order date 12/1/2025. Eliquis oral tablet 2.5mg, give 1 tablet by mouth two times a day for clot prevention, order date 12/1/2025.During a concurrent interview and record review on 12/4/2025 at 01:07 PM, Resident 98's OSR dated 12/3/2025 and baseline CP dated 12/1/2025 were reviewed with Registered Nurse (RN) 1. RN 1 stated Resident 98 had a physician's order for Lorazepam PRN for anxiety and an order for Eliquis for clot prevention. RN 1 stated Resident 98's baseline CP did not indicate Resident 98 was receiving a psychotropic medication or an anticoagulant medication. RN 1 stated these medications should have been included in Resident 98's baseline CP to reflect the physician's orders dated 12/1/2025. RN 1 stated including these medications in the baseline CP was important to ensure staff were aware of the resident's medication needs, monitoring requirements, and associated risks during Resident 98's initial admission period.During an interview on 12/5/2025 at 12:57 PM, with the Director of Nursing (DON), the DON stated Resident 98's Lorazepam and Eliquis orders should have been included in the baseline CP. The DON stated these were high-risk medications, and their omission [in the CP] could have led to staff missing important monitoring needs such as sedation, behavior changes, or bleeding. The DON stated including these medications was essential to ensure coordinated care and early identification of potential complications during admission.During a review of the facility's Policy and Procedure (P&P) titled, Baseline Care Plan revision dated 7/2025, the P&P indicated the facility will develop and implement a baseline care plan for each resident that includes the instructions needed to provide effective and person-centered care of the resident that meet professional standards of quality care. The P&P indicated the baseline care plan will include the minimum healthcare information necessary to properly care for a resident including but not limited to: Initial goals based on admission orders, physician orders. dietary orders, therapy orders, and social services.

Based on interview, and record review, the facility failed to develop and/or implement an individualized, person-centered comprehensive care plan (CP) that included measurable objectives, defined time frames, and specific interventions that addressed a diagnosis of dementia (a group of conditions, progressive state of decline in mental ability that interfere with daily activities) for 1 of 1 sampled resident (Resident 9).This deficient practice had the potential to result in Resident 9's cognitive (ability to understand and process information), behavioral, and safety needs not being properly identified, monitored, or addressed, which could lead to inadequate treatment, unmet needs, and a decline in Resident 9's overall well-being.Findings:During a review of Resident 9's admission Record (AR), the AR indicated the facility admitted Resident 9 on 9/4/2024, with diagnoses including dementia, depression (a mood disorder that causes a persistent feeling of sadness and loss of interest), and anxiety (a natural feeling of worry, fear, or unease about future events) disorder. During a review of Resident 9's Minimum Data Set (MDS - a resident assessment tool), dated 9/5/2025, the MDS indicated Resident 9's cognition was moderately impaired. The MDS indicated Resident 9 required partial/moderate assistance (helper does less than half the effort) with activities of daily living (ADL, term used in healthcare that refers to self-care activities) and required partial/moderate assistance with mobility.During a review of Resident 9's CPs on 12/3/2025 at 1:22 PM, there was no documented evidence indicating a dementia-specific CP was developed for Resident 9. During an interview and a concurrent record review on 12/4/2025 at 12:57 PM, with Registered Nurse (RN) 1, Resident 9's CPs, were reviewed. RN 1 stated that a dementia-specific CP had not been developed, initiated, or implemented for Resident 9. RN 1 stated a dementia-specific CP should have addressed Resident 9's cognitive status, behavioral risks, communication needs, and safety concerns. RN 1 stated this was important because without a dementia CP, staff lacked clear guidance on how to manage Resident 9's cognitive and behavioral needs, which could have led to unmet needs, increased risk for functional decline, and inconsistent care [from staff]. During an interview on 12/5/2025 at 12:57 PM, with the Director of Nursing (DON), the DON stated that it was essential to create and implement an individualized, person-centered dementia CP that included measurable objectives, defined time frames, and targeted interventions that addressed the residents' cognitive needs. The DON stated a dementia-specific CP ensured staff had clear guidance on how to manage cognitive changes, prevent avoidable safety risks, and deliver consistent and appropriate care. The DON stated this supported resident safety, behavioral stability, and overall well-being.During a review of the facility's policy and procedure (P&P) titled Comprehensive Care Plans revision date 7/2025, the P&P's policy indicated this facility to develop and implement a comprehensive person-centered CP for each resident, consistent with resident rights, that includes measurable objectives and timeframes to meet a resident's medical, nursing, and mental and psychosocial needs and all services that are identified in the resident's comprehensive assessment and to meet professional standards of quality.

F 0658 Ensure services provided by the nursing facility meet professional standards of quality. Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Based on observation, interview, and record review, the facility failed to provide education of a new prescribed pain medication for one of five sampled residents (Resident 99) during medication administration on 12/4/2025.This deficient practice resulted in Resident 99 being uninformed regarding Resident 99's pain treatment and had the potential to result in medication errors to Resident 99.Findings:During a review of Resident 99's admission Record (AR), the AR indicated the facility admitted Resident 99 on 4/22/2021, with diagnoses that included wedge compression fracture of the second lumbar vertebrae (a break in the lower back bone), wedge compression fracture of T11-T12 (a break in the upper back bone).During a review of Resident 99's History and Physical (H&P), dated 12/5/2025, the H&P indicated Resident 99 had capacity to make decisions.During a concurrent observation and interview on 12/4/2025 at 8:33 AM, with Licensed Vocational Nurse (LVN) 2 and with Resident 99, LVN 2 administered Tramadol (medication used for the relieve moderate to severe pain) to Resident 99, LVN 2 stated here is your pain medication. Resident 99 stated Resident 99 usually took 2 pills for pain medication when Resident 99 asked for pain medication. Resident 99 asked LVN 2 what medication Resident 99 was taking and LVN 2 stated it was Tramadol. Resident 99 asked LVN 2 if Tramadol was a new medication and LVN 2 answered Resident 99, LVN 2 would check.During a concurrent interview on 12/4/2025 at 9 AM with LVN 2, LVN 2 stated Tramadol was a new prescribed medication for Resident 99. LVN 2 stated when a resident (in general) was administered a new medication, LVN 2 had to provide education regarding the name, dose, and potential side effects (unwanted or unintended effects caused by a medication) of the medication with the resident. During a review of Resident 99's Order Summary Report (OSR), dated active as of 12/5/2025, the OSR indicated a new order for Tramadol 50 milligrams (mg, unit of measurement) by mouth every 12 hours as needed for pain in the lower back, dated 12/3/2025.During a review of Resident 99's Medication Administration Record (MAR) for December 2025, the MAR indicated Tramadol was administered for the first time on 12/4/2025 at 8:33 AM.During a review of the facility's Policy and Procedure (P&P) titled Medication Administration revised July 2025, the P&P indicated medications are administered by licensed nurses, or other staff who are legally authorized to do so in this state, as ordered by the physician and in accordance with professional standards of practice.During a review of the facility's undated P&P titled Unnecessary Drugs, the P&P indicated residents have the right to be informed of and participate in their treatment. Prior to initiating or increasing a medication, the resident, family and/or resident representative must be informed of the benefits, risks, and alternatives for the medication, in advance of such initiation or increase. The resident has the right to accept or decline the initiation or increase of a medication. This information will be documented in the medical record.During a review of a publication from the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ) titled, Medication Administration Errors dated 3/12/2021, the publication indicated patient education is a core component of medication management. The publication indicated patients are educated routinely to ensure understanding of indication for therapy, intended outcomes and signs and symptoms of adverse events.

The TN stated the LAL mattress was set on the maximum setting of 450 lbs., and this setting was too high for Resident 87. The TN stated the LAL mattress was designed to help prevent and treat PIs by redistributing pressure and promoting skin integrity. The TN stated the LAL mattress was only effective when properly set, and if settings were too high, appropriate pressure redistribution, airflow, and moisture management, would not be provided to Resident 87. The TN stated [the correct LAL setting] was critical to prevent skin breakdown and PIs. During a concurrent interview and record review on 12/2/2025 at 2:30 PM, Resident 87's Weights and Vitals Summary was reviewed with the TN. The TN stated Resident 87's most recent recorded weight was documented on 11/6/2025 and indicated Resident 87 weighed 95lbs. The TN stated Resident 87's LAL should have been set between 80 to 130 lbs. During an interview on 12/5/2025 at 12:57 PM, with the DON, the DON stated it was important for staff to ensure LAL mattress settings were properly adjusted according to the resident's current weight. The DON explained that settings that were too high could reduce pressure redistribution and airflow. The DON stated that LAL settings could increase pressure placing the residents (in general) at risk for skin breakdown, PIs, and/or worsening of PIs.

F 0881 Implement a program that monitors antibiotic use. Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm The facility failed to follow the facility's policy and procedure for Antibiotic Stewardship (offer providers and facilities a set of key principles to guide efforts to improve antibiotic use to effectively treat infections, protect patients from harms caused by unnecessary antibiotic use, and combat antimicrobial resistance) for 4 out of 5 sampled residents (Resident 13, 12, 51 and Resident 100). This deficient practice had the potential to result in inappropriate use of antibiotics that could lead to antibiotic resistance (occurs when bacteria, viruses, fungi and parasites no longer respond to antibiotics. As a result of drug resistance, antibiotics and other antimicrobial medicines become ineffective and infections become difficult or impossible to treat, increasing the risk of disease spread, severe illness, disability and death).During a concurrent review and interview on 12/5/2025 at 10:08 AM to 12:23 PM with the Infection Prevention Nurse (IPN). The IPN stated the facility was using McGeer's criteria (which defines the resident symptoms and other clinical criteria that are used to meet infection surveillance definitions. Infection surveillance definitions are essential for consistently monitoring infections over time and to determine where infection prevention efforts are needed. A log or line list can help organize information about resident infections). The following residents who were prescribed with antibiotics were reviewed. 1. During a review of Resident 51's admission Record (AR), the AR indicated the facility admitted Resident 51 on 10/11/25, with diagnoses that included urinary tract infection (UTI- infection of the kidney or bladder), metabolic encephalopathy (when a brain has trouble working because of a chemical or metabolic problem).During a review of Resident 51's Order Summary Report (OSR) from 11/1/25 to 11/30/25, the OSR indicated the following antibiotic orders:Administer Keflex (antibiotics used to treat infections) 500 milligrams (mg) two times a day for UTI/yeast infection for 5 days, order start date 11/5/25, order discontinued 11/6/25.Administer Ciprofloxacin (antibiotics used to treat infections) 500 mg two times a day for UTI for 7 days, order start date 11/10/25, completed.Cephalexin (antibiotics used to treat infections) 500 mg every 12 hours for UTI for 5 days, order start date 11/30/25.During a concurrent interview and review of Resident 51's Surveillance Data Collection Form (SDCF) for a urinary tract infection (UTI), with an indwelling catheter, the SDCF was incomplete. There was no information documented regarding Resident 51's signs and symptoms to indicate UTI and there was no information written or a print-out of Resident 51's urine culture result to indicate UTI. The IPN stated the IPN did not have the urine culture results, the laboratory (lab) would send an e-mail of resident's laboratory results, the IPN stated the IPN needed to print the lab results. During a concurrent review of Resident 51's Progress Notes (PN) dated 11/5/25 at 1:32 PM with the IPN, the IPN indicated Resident 51 complained of a slight burning when urinating. The IPN agreed when asked if the SDCF was completed upon the physician ordering the antibiotics. The SDCF would guide the licensed nurse what criteria to check for the use of antibiotics. During an interview, the IPN stated the criteria for the use of antibiotics could not be determined because there was no urine culture results. The IPN stated the IPN attempted to complete the SDCF but it was after the actual order. The IPN answered No when asked if the SDCF would serve it's purpose if completed after Resident 51 had completed the antibiotics. During a concurrent review of Resident 51's Microbiology, the urine culture result was dated 12/1/25. The IPN stated the IPN was not able to find the urine culture for November 2025. 2. During a review of Resident 12's AR, the AR indicated the facility admitted Resident 12 on 8/21/23, with diagnoses that included chronic kidney disease stage 4 (severe loss of kidney function), functional urinary incontinence (involuntary leakage of urine due to environmental or physical barriers to toileting).During a review of the facility's Order Listing Report (OLR), the OLR indicated the following antibiotic orders for Resident 12.Administer Amoxicillin 500 mg, two Residents Affected - Some (continued on next page) FORM CMS-2567 (02/99) Previous Versions Obsolete Event ID: Facility ID: 055261 If continuation sheet Page 29 of 33 Printed: 05/15/2026 Form Approved OMB No. 0938-0391 Department of Health & Human Services Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services STATEMENT OF DEFICIENCIES AND PLAN OF CORRECTION (X1) PROVIDER/SUPPLIER/CLIA IDENTIFICATION NUMBER: (X2) MULTIPLE CONSTRUCTION 055261 B.

During a concurrent review of Resident 12's SDCF for the use of Amoxicillin, the IPN stated Resident 12 did not have an indwelling catheter, the SDCF used was for a UTI with an indwelling catheter, the IPN stated the wrong SDCF was used. The SDCF indicated there was no information written regarding Resident 12's signs and symptoms to indicate UTI and there was no information written or a print-out of Resident 12's urine culture result to indicate a UTI. The IPN stated the IPN did not have the urine culture results and the laboratory (lab) would send an e-mail of resident's laboratory results. The IPN stated the IPN needed to print the lab results. During a concurrent review of Resident 12's Microbiology report, the urine culture result indicated a bacterial growth of enterococcus faecalis that is susceptible to ampicillin or Vancomycin. The antibiotic ordered for Resident 12 was Amoxicillin, the IPN stated the next step would be to call the physician to clarify the antibiotics ordered. 3. During a review of Resident 100's AR, the AR indicated the facility admitted Resident 100 on 11/26/25, with diagnoses that included metabolic encephalopathy and UTI.During a review of Resident 100's OSR, the OSR indicated an order for Cephalexin 500 mg, one tablet by mouth every 12 hours for UTI for 5 days, order start date 12/3/25 to 12/8/25. During a concurrent review of the SDCF, there was no SDCF completed. During a review of Resident 100's Progress Notes from 12/1/25 to 12/5/25 with the IPN, there was no documentation to indicate Resident 100 had signs and symptoms of UTI. During a review of Resident 100's urinalysis (U/A) dated 12/4/25, the U/A indicated there was no bacteria on the urine but there was positive blood and positive leukocyte esterase. During a follow-up interview, the IPN agreed there needed to be clarification of the antibiotics ordered and the physician needed to be notified of the current U/A result. The IPN agreed completing the SDCF would have guided the licensed nurse who received the order for antibiotics on what criteria to check for the use of antibiotics if the SDCF was completed upon receiving the order. 4. During a review of Resident 13's AR, the AR indicated the facility admitted Resident 13 on 11/17/25, with diagnoses that included history of falling, overactive bladder (sudden urges to urinate that may be hard to control). During a concurrent review of Resident 13's OSR and interview, the OSR indicated an order for Cephalexin 500 mg every 12 hours for infection for 5 days, order start date 11/17/25. The IPN stated the order was not clarified what was the infection being treated. During a review of Resident 13's SDCF, the SDCF did not specify the type of infection, the SCDF used for completion was for UTI with an indwelling catheter. There was no information written regarding Resident 12's signs and symptoms to indicate the infection and there was no information written or a print-out of Resident 12's culture results to indicate what type of infection was being treated. During an interview on 12/5/2025 at 11:41 AM, Licensed Vocational Nurse (LVN) 3 stated the process licensed nurses follow when receiving orders for antibiotics would be to complete the SDCF, that practice had not been continued and there was no reinforcement to continue due to the turnover of the IPN. LVN 3 stated completing the SDCF would be the responsibility of the desk nurse but there was no regular desk nurse. During a concurrent review of the facility's Policy and Procedure (P&P) titled Antibiotic Stewardship Program, the IPN stated No when asked if antibiotic time-out was practiced to review if antibiotic is indicated by reviewing signs and symptoms and laboratory results as indicated on the SDCF.

It can cause mild to severe illness, and at times can lead to death) vaccine to two of five sampled residents (Resident 11 and Resident 20). This deficient practice had the potential to result in illness and physical declines to Resident 11 and Resident 20.Findings: a. During a review of Resident 11's admission Record (AR), the AR indicated the facility admitted Resident 11 on 7/3/23 and readmitted the resident on 11/26/25, with diagnoses that included methicillin resistant staphylococcus aureus infection (MRSA - is a type of bacteria that many antibiotics don't work on), sepsis (infection of the bloodstream). During a review of Resident 11's Minimum Data Set (MDS - a resident assessment tool) dated 12/3/25, the MDS indicated Resident 11 had severe cognitive (ability to think and make decisions) impairment, the MDS indicated Resident 11 did not receive influenza vaccine at the facility because Resident 11 declined the vaccine. b. During a review of Resident 20's AR, the AR indicated the facility admitted Resident 20 on 7/24/25 and readmitted the resident on 11/11/25, with diagnoses that included heart failure (condition when the heart is unable to pump sufficiently to maintain blood flow to meet the body's needs), and pneumonia (lung infection). During a review of Resident 20's MDS, the MDS, dated [DATE] indicated Resident 20 had intact cognition. The MDS indicated Resident 20 did not get the influenza vaccine at the facility because it was offered and declined. During a review of the document titled 2025 vaccination on 12/5/25 at 12:31 with the Infection Prevention Nurse (IPN), the document indicated the following:Resident 11's influenza vaccination was administered on 10/28/24.Resident 20's influenza vaccination was administered on 2/18/25. During a review of Resident 11 and Resident 20's Vaccination Consent/Declination Form (VCD). There was no documented evidence indicating Resident 11 signed a VCD form. Resident 20's vaccination/declination form was dated 11/11/25, the VCD indicated Resident 20's resident representative declined the flu vaccine because Resident 20 had received the flu vaccine. During an interview on 12/5/25 at 12:46 PM, the IPN stated when residents (in general) consented or refuse vaccinations, the resident signed a consent/declination form as proof that education was provided regarding vaccination. The IPN stated Resident 11's vaccination consent/declination [for the current flu season] had not been completed. The IPN stated Resident 20's Flu vaccine was last flu season and would need to be provided information about the flu vaccine for the current flu season. During a review of the facility's Policy and Procedure (P&P) titled, Influenza Vaccination, revised date July 2025, the P&P indicated influenza vaccinations will be routinely offered annually from October 1?? through March 31?? unless such immunization is medically contraindicated, the individual has already been immunized during this time period or refuses to receive the vaccine. Additionally, influenza vaccinations will be offered to residents upon availability of the seasonal vaccine until influenza is no longer circulating in the facility's geographic area. The P&P indicated the resident's medical record will include documentation that the resident and/or the resident's representative was provided education regarding the benefits and potential side effects of immunization, and that the resident received or did not receive the immunization due to medical contraindication or refusal. During a review of Center for Disease Control (CDC)'s publication titled, Recommendation for Prevention and Control of Seasonal Influenza with Vaccines: Recommendations of the Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices, dated August 28, 2025, the publication indicated for most persons who require only 1 dose of influenza vaccine for the season, vaccination should ideally be offered during September or October. However, vaccination should continue after October and throughout the influenza season as long as influenza viruses are Residents Affected - Some (continued on next page) FORM CMS-2567 (02/99) Previous Versions Obsolete Event ID: Facility ID: 055261 If continuation sheet Page 32 of 33 Printed: 05/15/2026 Form Approved OMB No. 0938-0391 Department of Health & Human Services Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services STATEMENT OF DEFICIENCIES AND PLAN OF CORRECTION (X1) PROVIDER/SUPPLIER/CLIA IDENTIFICATION NUMBER: (X2) MULTIPLE CONSTRUCTION 055261 B.
