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 for two of three sampled residents (Resident 9 and 99): a. To perform a screening for Advance Directive (AD, a written instruction, recognized under State law relating to the provision of health care when the individual became incapacitated [lacking the ability to meet essential requirements for physical health, safety, or self-care]) upon admission and to obtain a copy of AD to keep/maintain in Resident 99's medical record (MR). b. To ensure Resident 9's AD acknowledgement form was filled out completely. These failures had the potential for the facility staff to provide treatment against the resident's will. Findings: During a review of Resident 99's admission Record (AR), the AR indicated Resident 99 was admitted to the facility on [DATE], with diagnoses that included sepsis (a serious infection affecting the entire body) and dehydration (body does not have enough water and fluids to carry out its function). During a review of Resident 99's MR, the MR indicated there was no Advance Directive Acknowledgement (ADA) form in Resident 99's medical record. During an interview with Social Service Director (SSD) on 6/15/2024 at 9:31 am, the SSD stated, the SSD did not perform a screening for AD for Resident 99 upon admission. The SSD stated, upon admission, the facility should provide an ADA form to the resident or their family member to determine if the resident had an AD, and if the resident had an AD, a copy of AD needed to be obtained and filed in the resident's medical record. The SSD stated AD screening was part of the facility's admission process. The SSD stated, it was important to check if the resident had an AD and obtain a copy to keep in the resident's medical record because the AD reflected the resident's treatment options and wishes, so the facility would not treat the resident against their will. During an interview with Resident 99's Family Member 1 (FM 1) on 6/15/2024 at 10:26 am, FM 1 stated Resident 99 had an AD, and the facility did not ask for a copy to be kept in Resident 99's MR. b. During a review of Resident 9's AR, the AR indicated Resident 9 was admitted to the facility on [DATE] with diagnoses that included type 2 diabetes mellitus (a disease in which the body's ability to produce or respond to the hormone insulin was impaired, resulting in elevated levels of (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.

Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm During a review of Resident 9's History and Physical (H&P), dated 12/6/2023, the H&P indicated Resident 9 had the capacity to understand and make decisions. Residents Affected - Some During a review of Resident 9's Physician Orders for Life-Sustaining Treatment (POLST) dated 12/20/2022, the POLST indicated Resident 9 did not have an AD. During a review of Resident 9's Minimum Data Set (MDS, a standardized assessment and care planning tool) dated 3/22/2024, the MDS indicated Resident 9 had intact cognition (mental action or process of acquiring knowledge and understanding) for daily decision making. The MDS indicated Resident 9 was dependent with toileting hygiene, shower, lower body dressing and putting on or taking off footwear. During a review of Resident 9's AD Acknowledgement form, dated 6/14/2024, the AD Acknowledgement form was not filled out completely. The two boxes to determine if the resident had executed an AD or not were left unchecked. During an interview and concurrent record review of Resident 9's MR on 6/15/2024 at 9:59 am, with the Social Service Director (SSD), the SSD stated Resident 9's AD Acknowledgement Form needed to be filled out completely. The SSD stated it was Resident 9's right to formulate AD for the facility to provide care and treatment to follow Resident 9's wishes. During an interview on 6/15/2024 at 11:41 am, with the facility's Director of Nursing (DON), the DON stated, Resident 9's Acknowledgement Form needed to be filled out completely by SSD. During a review of the facility's Policy and Procedure (P&P) titled, Advance Directives, revised 9/2022, the P&P indicated prior to or upon admission of a resident, the social service director or designee inquires of the resident, his/her family members and/or his or her legal representative, about the existence of any written advance directives. If the resident or the resident's representative has executed one or more advance directives, or executes one upon admission, copies of these documents are obtained and maintained in the same section of the resident's medical record and are readily retrievable by any facility staff.

F 0656 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Few Develop and implement a complete care plan that meets all the resident's needs, with timetables and actions that can be measured. Based on interview and record review the facility failed to develop and implement an individualized person-centered plan of care (details why a person is receiving care, assessed health or care needs, medical history, personal details, expected and aimed outcomes) with measurable objectives, timeframe, and interventions to meet the residents' needs for one of one sampled resident (Resident 19) who had a diagnoses of Cystitis (inflammation of the bladder) and on Bactrim ([sulfamethoxazole/trimethoprim] medication that treat infection) as indicated in the facility's policy and procedure, titled Care Plans, Comprehensive Person-Centered. This deficient practice had the potential for Resident 19 to not receive necessary care, treatment and/or services. Findings: During a review of Resident 19's admission Record (AR), the AR indicated the facility admitted Resident 19 on 5/8/2023 with diagnoses that included chronic cystitis (inflammation of the bladder) without hematuria (blood in the urine) and overactive bladder (sudden urges to urinate that may be hard to control). During a review of Resident 19's History and Physical (H&P), dated 5/9/2023, the H&P indicated Resident 19 did not have the capacity to understand and make decisions. During a review of Resident 19's Physician Orders (PO), dated 10/17/2023, the PO indicated for licensed staff to administer Bactrim Oral Tablet one tablet 400-80 milligrams (mg, unit of measurement) by mouth daily at bedtime for chronic cystitis without hematuria; to continue indefinitely per Urology (medical doctor who specializes in the diagnosis and treatment of diseases and conditions of the kidneys, ureters, bladder, and urethra). During a review of Resident 19's Minimum Data Set (MDS, a standardized assessment and care planning tool), dated 4/14/2024, the MDS indicated, Resident 19 's cognition (mental action or process of acquiring knowledge and understanding) for daily decision making was moderately impaired. The MDS indicated Resident 19 was dependent to staff with toileting, shower, lower body dressing and putting on/taking off footwear. During a concurrent interview and record review on 6/15/2024 at 11:26 am with Registered Nurse Supervisor 2 (RN Sup 2), Resident 19's medical record was reviewed. The RN Sup 2 stated there was no clinical documentation that a CP was developed for Resident 19 to address the resident's Cystitis and CP to address the use of antibiotic Bactrim. The RN Sup 2 stated CP for Resident 19 should have been initiated to provide guidance to staff on how to provide treatment to Resident 19 with Cystitis and was on Bactrim. During a concurrent interview and record review on 6/15/2024 at 11:38 am with the facility's Director of Nursing (DON), the DON stated CP should have been developed to ensure Resident 19 received necessary care and treatment to address Resident 19's specific needs. During a review of the facility's P&P titled, Care Plans - Comprehensive Person-Centered, revised 3/2022, the P&P indicated the comprehensive, person-centered care plan needed to be developed within (continued on next page) FORM CMS-2567 (02/99) Previous Versions Obsolete Event ID: Facility ID: 055541 If continuation sheet Page 3 of 15 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 055541 B.

F 0689 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Few Ensure that a nursing home area is free from accident hazards and provides adequate supervision to prevent accidents. **NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on observation, interview and record review, the facility failed to perform a smoking assessment (an assessment that helps to determine how can help a patient who smokes) upon admission for one of two sampled residents (Resident 100). This failure had the potential to result in unsafe smoking behaviors causing harm to residents. Findings: During a review of Resident 100's admission Record (AR), the AR indicated Resident 100 was admitted to the facility on [DATE] with diagnoses that included acute respiratory failure (sudden condition when the lungs cannot get enough oxygen into the blood) and hypertension (increased blood pressure). During an observation on 6/15/2024 at 3:48 pm, in the facility's designated smoking area, Resident 100 was observed smoking together with one of Resident 100's visitors. During a concurrent interview, Resident 100 stated Resident 100 was newly admitted to the facility and had a smoking history of more than 40 years. During a review of Resident 100's History and Physical (H&P) dated 6/15/2024, the H&P indicated Resident 100 had the capacity to understand and make decisions. During a review of Resident 100's Medical Record (MR), there was no smoking assessment performed for Resident 100. During an interview and concurrent record review on 6/15/2024 at 4:01 pm with Licensed Vocational Nurse 5 (LVN 5), LVN 5 stated, Resident 100 was admitted on [DATE] and the facility did not know Resident 100 was a smoker. LVN 5 stated there was no smoking assessment performed upon admission of Resident 100. LVN 5 stated, upon admission, the admitting staff needed to ask the resident's smoking history and smoking assessment should be performed for residents who smoke. LVN 5 stated, the purpose of smoking assessment was to evaluate safe resident smoking practices. During a review of the facility's Policy and Procedure (P&P) titled Smoking Policy-Residents, revised 10/2023, the P&P indicated prior to, and upon admission, residents are informed of the facility smoking policy, including designated smoking areas, and the extent to which the facility can accommodate their smoking or non-smoking preferences. Resident smoking status is evaluated upon admission.

F 0694 Provide for the safe, appropriate administration of IV fluids for a resident when needed. Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm **NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** c. During a review of Resident 43' AR, the AR indicated Resident 43 was admitted to the facility on [DATE], with diagnoses that included acute osteomyelitis (bone infection) of the right ankle and foot and anemia (a condition in which the body does not have enough healthy red blood cells). Residents Affected - Some During a review of Resident 43's MDS dated [DATE], the MDS indicated Resident 43 had clear speech, had the ability to understand others and made self understood. The MDS indicated Resident 43 required partial/moderate assistance (helper does less than half the effort, helper lifts, holds or supports trunk or limbs, but provides less than half the effort) for personal hygiene and chair/bed-to-chair transfers. During an observation on 6/14/2024 at 6:16 pm, Resident 43 was lying in bed. Resident 43 had a PICC line on the right upper arm. Resident 43's PICC line's insertion site was covered with dressing and the dressing was not labeled with date of insertion or change. During a concurrent interview with the Infection Preventionist Nurse (IPN- a nurse who helps prevent and identify the spread of infectious disease in the healthcare environment), the IPN stated Resident 43's PICC dressing should be labeled with the date the dressing was changed so that the staff knew when to change the dressing. The IPN stated, PICC line dressing needed to be changed every seven days to prevent accumulation of bacteria causing infection. During a review of the facility's P&P titled Guidelines for Preventing Intravenous Catheter-Related Infections, revised 8/2014,the P&P indicated change transparent, semi permeable membrane (TSM) dressing on central venous access devices (CVD), catheters inserted into peripheral veins or central veins in the chest, neck or groin, which travel through the venous system every 5-7 days or as needed (PRN) if damp, loosened, or visibly soiled. Based on observation, interview, and record review, the facility failed to provide appropriate care and services for peripherally inserted central catheter (PICC, a thin, flexible tube that is inserted into a vein in the upper arm and guided into a large vein above the right side of the heart called the superior vena cava) line and peripheral intravenous (PIV, a short , flexible plastic tube that is inserted into a vein through the skin) line for three of three sampled residents (Residents 43, 46 and 200) by failing to : a. Ensure the PICC line port was covered with a cap and not left open and exposed to the air, when not in use in accordance with the facility's Policy and Procedure (P&P) on Guidelines for Preventing Intravenous Catheter-Related Infections. b. Label and date the PIV for Resident 200) in accordance with the facility's P&P titled Peripheral IV Dressing Changes. c. Label the PICC line dressing with date of insertion and/or change of dressing.

F 0694 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Some a. During a review of Resident 46's admission Records (AR), the AR indicated Resident 46 was admitted to the facility on [DATE] with diagnoses that included sepsis (a life-threatening generalized infection of the body) and cellulitis (bacterial infection involving the inner layers of the skin) of the right lower limb. During a review of Resident 46's Minimum Data Set (MDS, a standardized assessment and care planning tool), dated 5/27/2024, the MDS indicated Resident 46 had intact cognition (ability to understand) and required moderate assistance (helper does more than half the effort) with toileting, shower, and lower body dressing. During a review of Resident 46's Care Plan (CP), dated 5/21/2024, the CP indicated Resident 46 was on intravenous (IV) medications via (through) PICC line on the right upper arm. The CP had a goal for Resident 46 not to have any complications related to IV therapy. During an observation on 6/14/2024 at 6:26 pm inside Resident 46's room, Resident 46 had a PICC line with 2 ports. One of the PICC line ports was exposed and not covered with a cap. During an interview on 6/14/2024 at 6:44 pm with the Infection Preventionist Nurse (IPN), IPN stated all PICC line ports should be covered with a cap and should not be left open to the air when not in use to prevent infection. During an interview on 6/16/2024 at 9:58 am with the Director of Nursing (DON), the DON stated, all PICC line, central line and peripheral ports should be covered and capped at all times when not in use to prevent access of bacteria and dirt on the ports and cause infection to the residents. During a review of the facility's undated P&P titled, Guideline for Preventing Intravenous Catheter-Related Infections, the P&P indicated, Any time that dressing is not intact or end caps are missing, the catheter has potential for contamination. b. During a review of Resident 200's AR, the AR indicated Resident 200 was admitted to the facility on [DATE] with diagnoses that included cellulitis on right lower limb. During a review of Resident 200's Physicians Order (PO), dated 6/14/2024, the PO indicated for licensed staff to change the peripheral site dressing for Resident 200 every 72 hours and as needed. During a concurrent observation and interview on 6/14/2024 at 6:16 pm with Licensed Vocational Nurse 1 (LVN 1), Resident 200 was awake lying in bed with peripheral IV site on the left hand. The peripheral IV site was not dated when it was changed. LVN 1 stated Resident 200's IV site was not labeled with date to identify when it was inserted by the licensed nurse (in general). During a concurrent observation and interview on 6/14/2024 at 7:03 pm with Registered Nurse Supervisor 1 (RN Sup 1) Resident 200's peripheral IV site was inspected. The RN Sup 1 stated, Resident 200's peripheral IV site was not labeled with date when it was inserted. RN Sup 1 stated Resident 200's peripheral IV site needed to be labeled with date, time and with the licensed nurse's initial to determine when it was changed to prevent infection. During an interview on 6/15/2024 at 11:44 am with the facility's Director of Nursing (DON), the DON stated Resident 200's IV site needed to be labeled with date and licensed nurse's initial every 72 hours to know when it was changed to prevent infection.

Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm **NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** c. During a review of Resident 25's AR, the AR indicated Resident 25 was admitted to the facility on [DATE], with diagnoses that included hydrocephalus (abnormal buildup of cerebrospinal fluid [fluid found within the tissues surrounding the brain] in the ventricles [cavities] within the brain) and hypertension (increased blood pressure). Residents Affected - Some During a review of Resident 25's OSR dated 4/24/2024, the OSR indicated Resident 25 was prescribed Ipratropium-Albuterol (medicine used for breathing treatment) Inhalation orally every two hours as needed for shortness of breath/wheezing (abnormal lung sound) via (through) handheld nebulizer (HHN- a machine that deliver medicines in the form of aerosols) for 15 minutes or until the dose was completed. During a review of Resident 25's MDS dated [DATE], the MDS indicated Resident 25 had unclear speech, usually understood others, and sometimes made self understood. The MDS indicated Resident 25 required substantial/maximal assistance (helper does more than half the effort, helper lifts or holds trunk or limbs and provides more than half the effort) for personal hygiene, sit to stand and bed to chair transfers. During an observation on 6/14/2024 at 6:23 pm, in Resident 25's room and concurrent interview, Resident 25's facemask was placed in a plastic bag, and the facemask was not labeled with date of use. Resident 25 stated Resident 25 used the facemask for breathing therapy as needed. The IPN stated, Resident 25 used the facemask for breathing treatment as needed, as ordered by the physician. The IPN stated, Resident 25's facemask should be labeled with the date applied to Resident 25 and the mask needed to be changed every seven days or as needed. The IPN stated, this was to prevent accumulation of bacteria on the facemask that would cause health problems/complications to Resident 25. Based on observation, interview and record review, the facility failed to ensure residents receiving oxygen therapy (a treatment that provides with extra oxygen to breathe in) were provided necessary respiratory care and services for four of four sampled residents (Residents 25, 27, 151 and 199) in accordance with the facility's Policy and Procedure (P&P) on Respiratory Therapy - Prevention of Infection. These failures had the potential to result in respiratory complications and infection for Residents 25, 27, 151 and 199. Findings: a. During a review of Resident 151's admission Records (AR), the AR indicated Resident 151 was admitted to the facility on [DATE] with diagnoses that included hemiplegia (muscle weakness on one side of the body), hemiparesis (a condition that causes weakness or inability to move on one side of the body) and pneumonitis (inflammation of the lungs). During a review of Resident 151's Order Summary Report (OSR), dated 6/7/2024, the OSR indicated Resident 151 had an order for oxygen to run at two (2) liters per (through) nasal cannula (L/NC, amount of oxygen delivered by nasal cannula [ NC- tube which on one end splits into two prongs which are placed in the nostrils to deliver oxygen] to keep oxygen saturation ( a measure of how much oxygen the blood is carrying as a percentage of the maximum it could carry) above 92 percent (%).

F 0842 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Few Safeguard resident-identifiable information and/or maintain medical records on each resident that are in accordance with accepted professional standards. **NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on interview and record review, the facility failed to ensure Physician Orders for Life-Sustaining Treatment (POLST, a form designed to improve patient care by creating a portable medical order form that records patient's treatment wishes so that emergency personnel know what treatments the patient wants in the event of a medical emergency) was accurately documented for one of three sampled residents (Resident 25). This failure had the potential to result in miscommunication among health care providers, resulting in inconsistent care for the resident. Findings: During a review of Resident 25's admission Record (AR), the AR indicated Resident 25 was admitted to the facility on [DATE], with diagnoses that included hydrocephalus (abnormal buildup of cerebrospinal fluid [fluid found within the tissues surrounding the brain] in the ventricles [cavities] within the brain) and hypertension (increased blood pressure). During a review of Resident 25's MDS dated [DATE], the MDS indicated Resident 25 had unclear speech, usually understood others, and sometimes made self understood. The MDS indicated Resident 25 required substantial/maximal assistance (helper does more than half the effort, helper lifts or holds trunk or limbs and provides more than half the effort) for personal hygiene, sit to stand and bed to chair transfers. During a review of Resident 25's POLST dated 10/31/2023, the POLST indicated Resident 25 had an Advance Directive (AD-a written instruction, recognized under State law relating to the provision of health care when the individual is incapacitated [lacking the ability to meet essential requirements for physical health, safety, or self-care]). During a review of Resident 25's AD acknowledgement form dated 4/1/2024, the AD acknowledgement form indicated Resident 25 did not execute an AD. During an interview and a concurrent record review on 6/15/2024 at 9:56 am, the Social Service Director (SSD) stated Resident 25 did not execute an AD. The SSD stated the SSD did an incorrect documentation on Resident 25's POLST indicating Resident 25 had an AD. The SSD stated there was inconsistency between Resident 25's POLST and AD acknowledgement form. The SSD stated it was important to document accurately in the resident's POLST because it would cause miscommunication among staff regarding resident's care and the resident would receive treatment against the resident's will in an emergency situation. During a review of the facility's Policy and Procedure (P&P) titled Charting and Documentation revised 7/2017, the P&P indicated Documentation in the medical record will be objective (not opinionated or speculative), complete and accurate.

This deficient practice had the potential to cause the residents in these rooms not to have enough room for activities of daily living and hinder staff from providing care to the residents. Findings: During an observation on 6/16/2024, from 9 am to 10:05 am, rooms [ROOM NUMBERS] did not meet the minimum requirement of 80 sq. ft. per resident. The residents in these rooms were able to ambulate freely and/or maneuver in their wheelchairs freely. Nursing staff had enough space to provide care to these residents with dignity and privacy. There was space for beds, side tables, dressers, and other medical equipment. During an interview with the Administrator (ADM) on 6/16/2024 at 11:02 am, regarding rooms [ROOM NUMBERS] that did not meet the minimum requirement of 80 sq. ft. per resident in multiple resident rooms, the ADM stated the ADM would submit a room waiver request for rooms [ROOM NUMBERS]. During a review of the facility's room waiver request letter dated 6/16/2024, the letter indicated there was ample room to accommodate wheelchairs and other medial equipment, as well as space for mobility and movement of ambulatory residents in rooms [ROOM NUMBERS]. The letter indicated there was adequate space for nursing care, and the health and safety of residents occupying rooms [ROOM NUMBERS] were not in jeopardy. The letter indicated rooms [ROOM NUMBERS] were in accordance with the special needs of the residents, and do not have an adverse effect on the resident's health and safety or impede the ability of any resident to attain his or her highest practicable well-being.
