Reasonably accommodate the needs and preferences of each resident.
Level of Harm - Minimal harm
or potential for actual harm
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
interview and record review, the facility failed to ensure resident received reasonable accommodation of
needs for two (2) of 18 sampled residents (Residents 17 and 28) by failing to ensure Residents 17 and 28's
call lights were within reach.
Residents Affected - Few
This deficient practice had the potential to result in the inability for Residents 17 and 28 to obtain necessary
care and services.
Findings:
1. During a review of the Resident 17's admission Record, the admission Record indicated Resident 17
was initially admitted to the facility on [DATE] and readmitted on [DATE], with diagnoses of dementia
(progressive brain disorder that slowly destroys memory and thinking skills), depression (severe feelings on
sadness and hopelessness), and hypothyroidism (condition in which the thyroid gland does not produce
enough thyroid hormone).
During a record review of Resident 17's Minimum Data Set (MDS, a resident assessment and tool), dated
2/7/2025, the MDS indicated the resident's cognitive (mental action or process of acquiring knowledge and
understanding) skills for daily decision making was moderately impaired. The MDS indicated Resident 17
was dependent (helper does all the effort, resident does none of the effort to complete the activity) for
toileting hygiene, shower/bathing self, and chair/bed-to-chair transfer. The MDS indicated Resident 17
required substantial/maximal assistance (helper does more than half the effort) for personal hygiene, rolling
left to right, sit to lying, and lying to sitting on side of bed.
During a record review of Resident 17's care plan, dated 5/21/2024, the care plan indicated Resident 17
was at moderate risk for falls related to poor balance and unsteady gait (a manner of walking or moving on
foot). The care plan interventions for staff were to ensure Resident 17's call light was within reach and
encourage the resident to use it for assistance as needed.
During an observation on 2/25/2025 at 9:05 AM in Resident 17's room, Resident 17's call light was
observed on the floor. During a concurrent interview with Resident 17, Resident 17 stated, I don't know
where my call button is at. Resident 17 stated she wanted to call the nurse to ask for help to change the
channel on the tv.
During a concurrent observation and interview on 2/25/2025 at 9:25 AM in Resident 17's room with
Certified Nursing Assistant 1 (CNA 1), CNA 1 stated Resident 17's call light was on the floor. CNA 1 stated
Resident 17's call light was not supposed to be on the floor. CNA 1 stated Resident 17's call light was
supposed to be near the resident and was not within Resident 17's reach.

PASARR screening for Mental disorders or Intellectual Disabilities
Level of Harm - Minimal harm
or potential for actual harm
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
interview and record review, the facility failed to ensure the preadmission screening and resident review
assessment (PASRR, preventing individuals with mental illness, developmental disability, intellectual
disability, or related conditions from being inappropriately placed in nursing homes for long term care) form
was accurately completed for a resident who had a mental illness for one (1) of three (3) sampled residents
(Resident 2).
Residents Affected - Few
This deficient practice had the potential for Resident 2 to not receive the necessary and appropriate
psychiatric (of or relating to the study of mental illness) treatment and evaluation.
Findings:
During a review of the Resident 2's admission Record, the admission Record indicated Resident 2 was
initially admitted to the facility on [DATE] and readmitted on [DATE], with diagnoses of schizophrenia (a
chronic and severe mental disorder that affects how a person thinks, feels, and behaves), depression
(severe feelings on sadness and hopelessness), and dementia (progressive brain disorder that slowly
destroys memory and thinking skills) with behavioral disturbance.
During a record review of Resident 2's Minimum Data Set (MDS, a resident assessment and tool), dated
2/14/2025, the MDS indicated the resident's cognitive (mental action or process of acquiring knowledge
and understanding) skills for daily decision making was moderately impaired. The MDS indicated Resident
2 had a psychiatric (relating to mental illness or its treatment)/mood disorder and was taking antipsychotic
(drugs that work by altering brain chemistry to help reduce psychotic symptoms like hallucinations,
delusions, and disordered thinking) and antidepressant (drugs used to treat depression) medications. The
MDS also indicated Resident 2 did not have any mood and behaviors.
During a review of Resident 2's Physician Order Summary Report, dated 5/28/2024 and 6/11/2024, the
Physician Order Summary Report indicated the following order:
6/11/2024: Invega Sustenna (antipsychotic medication) Intramuscular Suspension prefilled Syringe 156
mg/ml - Inject 1 ml intramuscularly every 30 days for schizophrenia manifested by agitation as evidenced by
fighting with other residents.
During a review of Resident 2's PASRR Level I Screening, dated 5/4/2024, the record indicated the PASRR
Level I was negative (there was no suspected mental illness or intellectual/developmental disability or
related condition). The PASRR Level I Screening also indicated under Section three Resident 2 did not
have a serious diagnosis of mental disorder such as depressive disorder (depressed mood or loss of
pleasure or interest in activities for long periods of time), anxiety disorder (persistent and excessive worry
that interferes with daily activities), panic disorder (an anxiety disorder with sudden attacks of panic or fear),
schizophrenia/schizoaffective disorder (a mental illness that causes loss of contact with reality), or
symptoms of psychosis, delusions (believed to be true or real but is actually false or unreal), and/or mood
disturbance.
During an interview on 2/27/2025 at 11:44 AM with the Director of Nursing (DON), the DON stated the

Level of Harm - Minimal harm
or potential for actual harm
During a concurrent interview and review on 2/28/2025 at 2:11 PM of Resident 38's SBAR and care plans
with the DON, the DON stated Resident 38's care plan indicated staff were to keep Resident 38's nails
trimmed and cleaned. The DON stated there was no notification to the physician regarding Resident 38's
left thumbnail. The DON stated the licensed nurses needed to report Resident 38's thumbnail to the
physician. The DON stated Resident 38's nail could become infected.
Residents Affected - Some
During a record review of the facility's policy and procedure titled, Grooming Care of the Fingernails and
Toenails, revised 11/1/2017, the policy indicated nail care is given to clean and keep the nails trimmed.
Residents with hypertrophic (abnormally thickened nails), mycotic (nail infected by a fungus) and keratotic
(nails that have thickened from keratin buildup) nails will be referred to podiatrist.
Based on observation, interview, and record review, the facility failed to provide the necessary services to
maintain good grooming and personal hygiene for three (3) of 3 sampled residents (Resident 27, 28, 38)
who was dependent with activities of daily living (ADLs- are activities related to personal care that include
bathing or showering, dressing, getting in and out of bed or a chair, walking, using the toilet, and eating), by
failing to ensure the residents' nail were kept trimmed and clean in accordance with the facility's policy.
This deficient practice resulted in Resident 27, 28, and 38 having dirty, long and jagged (having rough,
sharp points protruding) fingernails, potentially leading to skin injury, infection, and scarring.
Findings:
1. A review of Resident 28's admission Record indicated the facility admitted Resident 28 on 1/29/2025 with
the diagnoses that included dysphagia (difficulty swallowing), depression (mood disorder that causes a
persistent feeling of sadness and loss of interest), diabetes mellitus (disorder in which the body does not
produce enough or respond normally to insulin, causing blood sugar [glucose] levels to be abnormally high)
A review of Resident 28's Minimum Data Set (MDS, resident assessment tool), dated 2/4/2025, indicated
Resident 28 cognition was moderately impaired (processes of thinking and reasoning) skills for daily
decision making. The MDS indicated Resident 28 required substantial /maximal assistance (helper does
more than half of the effort) on eating. The MDS also indicated the resident is dependent (helper does all
the effort. Resident does none of the effort to complete the activity) on oral hygiene, toilet hygiene, shower/
bathe self, lower body dressing and putting on/ taking off footwear.
During a review of Resident 28's care plan date initiated 9/11/2020, revised on 9/25/2020 indicated
problem: selfcare deficit: inability to participate in any independent Activities of Daily Living (ADLs),
activities related to personal care. They include bathing or showering, dressing, getting in and out of bed or
a chair, walking, using the toilet, and eating) requires extensive assist with bed mobility ,
locomotion(movement or the ability to move from one place to another), personal hygiene (regularly
washing parts of the body and hair with soap and water (including washing your hands and feet), grooming
nails, facial cleanliness, covering coughs and sneezes, and menstrual hygiene). The care plan goal
indicated resident will have bathing and grooming needs met as evidence by lack of unpleasant odors and
a neat and clean appearance on daily basis. The care plan intervention indicated keep nails clean and

During observation on 2/25/2025 at 9:20 AM at Resident 28's room, Resident 28's nails on both hands
were dirty with color black to yellowish stuff under the long-jagged nails.
During a concurrent observation and interview on 2/26/2025 at 3:44 PM with the Director of Nursing (DON)
at Resident 28's room, DON stated resident's nail was long and dirty. The nails should be clean and smooth
all the time.
During a concurrent interview and record review on 2/26/2025 at 3:56 PM with the registered nurse
supervisor (RNS 4), Resident 28's care plan for self- care deficit revised 9/25/2020 was reviewed.
Resident's care plan indicated keep nails trim and clean. RNS 4 stated Resident 28 was dependent on
ADL's, and it was important to provide proper hygiene to the resident because long and dirty nails can
harbor bacteria and germs that can cause sickness and skin abrasion.
During concurrent interview and record review on 2/28/2025 at 9:10 AM of Resident 28's medical records
(chart) dated from 1/29/2025 to 2/282/2025 with minimum data set nurse (MDSN), MDSN stated no
documentation on resident refusing nail care found on the chart. MDSN also stated Resident 28's nails
were supposed to be kept clean, trimmed and smooth all the time to prevent possible skin tear, infection or
sickness like stomachache or diarrhea.
2. A review of Resident 27's admission Record indicated the facility admitted Resident 27 on 11/14/2024
with the diagnoses that included dysphagia, diabetes mellitus, hemiplegia and hemiparesis (loss of strength
in the arm, leg, and sometimes face on one side of the body)
A review of Resident 27's MDS, dated [DATE], indicated Resident 27 cognition was moderately impaired
skills for daily decision making. The MDS indicated Resident 27 required substantial /maximal assistance
(helper does more than half of the effort) oral hygiene and personal hygiene.
During a review of Resident 27's care plan date initiated 2/15/2024 indicated Problem: selfcare deficit:
inability to participate in any ADLs. The care plan indicated the resident requires extensive assist with bed
mobility, eating, transfer, locomotion, dressing, toilet use, personal hygiene. The care plan goal indicated

Residents Affected - Few
Provide appropriate care for a resident to maintain and/or improve range of motion (ROM), limited ROM
and/or mobility, unless a decline is for a medical reason.
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
observation, interview, and record review, the facility failed to provide Restorative Nursing Services (a
program available in nursing homes to help residents maintain progress made during therapy treatments,
enabling them to achieve their highest practicable level of functioning) as ordered by the physician to
increase, prevent, or maintain range of motion (ROM, full movement potential of a joint) for one of three
sampled residents (Resident 36).
This deficient practice placed Resident 36 at risk for decline in physical functions and developing
contractures (condition of shortening and hardening of muscles, tendons, or other tissue, often leading to
deformity and rigidity of joints) in the extremities (a limb of the body, such as the arm or leg) for not
receiving the ordered exercises.
Findings:
During a review of Resident 36's admission Record, the record indicated Resident 36 was initially admitted
to the facility on [DATE] and readmitted on [DATE], with diagnoses of right hand contracture, hemiplegia (a
condition caused by brain damage or spinal cord injury that leads to paralysis [loss of motor function in one
or more muscles] on one side of the body) and hemiparesis (weakness on one side of the body) following
cerebrovascular (condition affecting the brain's blood flow and blood vessels) disease affecting right
dominant side, and chronic respiratory failure (a long-term condition in which the respiratory system is
unable to adequately exchange oxygen and carbon dioxide in the body).
During a review of Resident 36's Minimum Data Set (MDS, a resident assessment and tool), dated
1/3/2025, the record indicated the resident's cognitive (mental action or process of acquiring knowledge
and understanding) skills for daily decision making was severely impaired. The MDS indicated Resident 36
had an impairment to one side of the upper extremity (shoulder, elbow, wrist, hand) and lower extremity
(hip, knee, ankle, foot). The MDS indicated Resident 36 was dependent (helper does all of the effort) for
toileting hygiene, shower/bathing self, lower body dressing, chair/bed-to-chair transferring. The MDS
indicated Resident 36 required substantial/maximal assistance (helper does more than half the effort) for
eating, oral hygiene, personal hygiene, rolling left and right, sit to lying, and lying to sitting on side of bed.
The MDS also indicated Resident 36 had five (5) days of splint or brace assistance.
During a review of Resident 36's Physician Order Summary, dated 12/28/2023, 9/6/2024, and 2/7/2025, the
orders indicated as follows:
12/28/2023: Restorative Nursing Assistant (RNA) for passive range of motion (PROM, the range that can
be achieved by external means such as another person or a device) to right upper extremity (RUE) 10
repetitions for two (2) sets five (5) times a week every day or as tolerated.

three to four hours after care daily.
2/4/2025: RNA for PROM exercises on bilateral lower extremity (BLE) 10 repetitions for 2 sets every day 5
times per week or as tolerated.
During a review of Resident 36's care plan, revised 9/25/2023, the care plan indicated Resident 36 had
impaired physical mobility related to stiffness of right hand muscles secondary to contracture. The care plan
interventions were for RNA to provide PROM to RUE 10 repetitions for 2 sets 5 times a week every day or
as tolerated and RNA order to apply Carrot hand splint on right hand after care daily. There was no revised
care plan for Resident 36's BLE RNA services.
During a review of Resident 36's Restorative Nursing charting, the charting indicated Resident 36 received
RNA for Carrot hand splint as follows for the month of February 2025:
Week 1: 2/6/2025, 2/7/2025 (missing 5 days)
Week 2: 2/10/2025, 2/11/2025, 2/12/2025, 2/13/2025, 2/14/2025 (missing 2 days)

Level of Harm - Minimal harm
or potential for actual harm
During a review of Resident 36's Restorative Nursing charting, the charting d indicated Resident 36
received RNA for PROM exercises to BLE 10 repetitions for 2 sets 5 times a week or as tolerated as follows
for the month of February 2025:
-
Residents Affected - Few
Week 3: 2/17/2025, 2/21/2025 (missing 3 days)
Week 4: 2/24/2025 (missing 5 days)
During an observation on 2/26/2025 at 8:51 AM in Resident 36's room, Resident 36's right hand was closed
in a fist.
During an interview on 2/28/2025 at 9:48 AM with RNA 1, RNA 1 stated he was in charge of RNA exercises
for resident on the south station. RNA 1 stated Resident 36 had a hand splint and RNA exercises. RNA 1
stated Resident 36 never refused any RNA services provided to her.
During a concurrent interview and review on 2/28/2025 at 9:52 AM with RNA 1 of Resident 36's Restorative
Nursing charting, RNA 1 stated the physician's order for RNA services were not being done as ordered.
RNA 1 stated the hand splints were supposed to be done daily, RNA for the RUE and BLE were supposed
to be done 5 times per week and were not being done per order. RNA 1 stated Resident 36 was weak on
the right side so the splint was to help loosen the right hand. RNA 1 stated Resident 36 was not able to
walk, and her legs were stiff, therefore the PROM of the BLE would help loosen the lower extremities. RNA
stated the RNA exercises and splint were needed for Resident 36 to prevent her from being contracted and
prevent the areas from getting stiff.
During a concurrent interview and review on 2/28/2025 at 11:04 AM with the MDS Nurse (MDSN) of
Resident 36's care plan, MDSN stated Resident 36's care plan needed to be updated when there are new
orders for RNA services for resident's BLE. MDSN stated once the orders for RNA services for the BLE
were received, the licensed nurse should have also updated the care plan. MDSN stated there was no care
plan revision for Resident 36's BLE RNA services. MDSN stated the care plan ensures that Resident 36's
plan was executed, and the interventions done would prevent atrophy (decrease in size due to disuse) and
improve Resident 36's range of motion for the exercises done.
During an interview on 2/28/2025 at 2:17 PM with the Director of Nursing (DON), the DON stated RNA
services were performed for the resident's mobility and to prevent contractures. The DON stated an order
for RNA services also requires the care plan to be updated. The DON stated the plan of care would need to
be monitored to see if the residents were getting better, getting worse, or getting contracted. The DON
stated RNAs needed to make sure the doctor's orders were being followed to know if the resident's mobility
and contractures were progressing or not. The DON stated by not following the physician's orders there
could be a decrease in mobility and an increase in contractures for residents.
During a review of the facility's policy and procedure titled, Restorative Nursing Program Guidelines, revised
11/1/2017, the policy indicated in conjunction with the Attending Physician and staff, therapists will propose
a rehabilitation or restorative care plan that provides an appropriate intensity, frequency and duration of
interventions to help achieve anticipated goals and expected

**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
observation, interview and record review, the facility failed to ensure one (1) of 1 sampled resident
(Resident 16) receiving 5 liters of oxygen therapy (the odorless gas that is present in the air and necessary
to maintain life) had a physician's order.
Residents Affected - Few
This deficient practice had the potential to result in negative outcome of Resident 16's breathing pattern.
Findings:
During a review of Resident 16's admission Record, the admission Record indicated Resident 16 was
initially admitted to the facility on [DATE] with diagnosis which dysphagia (swallowing difficulties),
pneumonia (an infection that affects one or both lungs), pleural effusion (occurs when fluid builds up in the
space between the lung and the chest wall)
During a review of Resident 16's Minimum Data Set (MDS, a resident assessment tool), dated 2/1/2025,
the MDS indicated Resident 16's cognitive skills (processes of thinking and reasoning) for daily decision
making was intact. The MDS also indicated Resident 16 was on oxygen therapy while a resident (performed
while a resident of this facility and within the last 14 days).
During observation on 2/25/2025 at 9:34 AM at Resident 16's room Resident 16 was observed in bed with
the oxygen on via nasal canula (flexible tube that goes around your head and into your nose) at 5 LPM.
During observation on 2/25/2025 at 9:41 AM at Resident 16's room Resident 16 was observed in bed with

Provide safe, appropriate dialysis care/services for a resident who requires such services.
Level of Harm - Minimal harm
or potential for actual harm
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
interview and record review, the facility failed to provide one of one sampled resident (Resident 30) safe
and appropriate care for the provision of dialysis (a lifesaving treatment for residents with kidney failure)
consistent with professional standards and in accordance with the facility's policy by failing to:
Residents Affected - Few
1. Ensure Resident 30 received 1800 milliliters (ml, unit of volume) of fluids per day as indicated on the care
plan.
2. Monitor Resident 30's fistula (an abnormal opening or passage between two body structures that do not
normally connect) for dialysis access.
These deficient practices resulted in underloading Resident 30 with fluid and had the potential for
dehydration ((harmful reduction in the amount of water in the body) and placed Resident 30 at risk for a
delay in detecting a non-functioning arteriovenous shunt (AV, a connection or passageway between an
artery and vein used for hemodialysis [(medical procedure that filters the blood of waste products when the
kidneys are not able to)]) and complications such as infections and bleeding.
Findings:
During a review of the Resident 30's admission Record, the admission Record indicated Resident 30 was
admitted to the facility on [DATE], with diagnoses of end stage renal disease (ESRD, advanced stage
kidney failure), dependence on renal dialysis (a lifesaving treatment for residents with kidney failure or end
stage renal disease), and arteriovenous fistula (AVF, an abnormal connection between an artery and a
vein).
During a record review of Resident 30's Minimum Data Set (MDS, a resident assessment and tool), dated
2/10/2025, the MDS indicated the resident's cognitive (mental action or process of acquiring knowledge
and understanding) skills for daily decision making was moderately impaired. The MDS indicated Resident
30 was dependent (helper does all of the effort and resident does none of the effort to complete the activity)
for sit to standing, chair/bed-to-bed transferring, and toilet transferring. The MDs indicated Resident 30
required substantial/maximal assistance (helper does more than half the effort) for toileting hygiene,
shower/bathing self, sit to lying, and lying to sitting on side of bed. The MDS also indicated Resident 30
received hemodialysis.
During a record review of Resident 30's Physician Order Summary, dated 2/5/2025, the order indicated as
follows:
Fluid restriction 1800 ml per day Dietary 1200 ml: breakfast: 480 ml, lunch: 360 ml, dinner =360 ml, Nursing

During a record review of Resident 30's care plan, revised 2/7/2025, the care plan indicated Resident 30
needed fluid restriction of 1800 ml/day secondary to diagnosis of ESRD. The care plan interventions for
staff were to provide 1800 ml of fluids per day, record intake and output, monitor weights and report any
loss or gain of five percent to the physician.
During a record review of Resident 30's care plan, revised 2/7/2025, the care plan indicated Resident 30
was at risk for infection in shunt site. The care plan interventions for staff were to monitor shunt site for
symptoms of infection, shunt care per order, monitor intake and output, and monitor access area for
redness, swelling or pain, and report to physician promptly.
During a record review of Resident 30's Medication Administration Record (MAR, a medical record used by
healthcare providers to document the administration of a medication or treatment) for the month of
February, the MAR indicated from 2/6/2025 to 2/27/2025 Resident 30's intake ranged from 240 ml to 960
ml per day, except on days 2/22/2025 and 2/23/2025 which were 1200 ml and 1680 ml, consecutively.
During a record review of Resident 30's Medical Records for the month of February, the records did not
indicate staff were monitoring Resident 30's shunt site every shift.
During a concurrent interview and record review on 2/28/2025 at 8:24 AM with Registered Nurse 3 (RN 3)
of Resident 30's physician orders and MAR, RN 3 stated monitoring for Resident 30's fistula was not and
should have been completed to ensure it was functioning and there was no infection or deterioration such
as failure or worsening of the fistula.
During the same interview on 2/28/2028 at 8:24 AM with RN 3, RN 3 stated dehydration could occur if
Resident 30 received too little fluids. RN 3 stated symptoms such as headache, confusion, and electrolyte
(minerals in water or body fluids that support body functions) imbalance resulting in the body to start
shutting down. RN 3 stated since the physician had an order for fluid restriction of 1800 ml, fluids below
1500 ml per day could be enough to affect Resident 30 and cause dehydration side effects. During a
concurrent record review of Resident 30's MAR with RN 3, RN 3 stated Resident 30 had received less than
1500 ml per day for this month except for 1 day.
During an interview on 2/28/2025 at 1:44 PM with the Director of Nursing (DON), the DON stated intake
and output monitoring was done to monitor for dehydration or fluid overload. The DON stated an intake of
less fluids could also result in weight loss. The DON stated the fistula should be monitored by staff to
ensure that it was working by checking on the bruit (an audible swishing or whooshing sound associated
with turbulent blood flow) and thrill (palpable vibration felt over a vessel where a bruit is heard) and to
physically inspect the site for possible infection. The DON stated after monitoring the fistula, the licensed
nurses would need to document the monitoring on the resident's Medication Administration Record (MAR,
a medical record used by healthcare providers to document the administration of a medication or
treatment).
During a record review of the facility's policy and procedure (P&P) titled, Dialysis Care, revised 11/1/2017,
the policy indicated staff were to inspect shunt site area for color, warmth, redness, tenderness, pain,
edema, drainage, and bruit once per shift.
During a record review of the facility's P&P titled, Intake and Output Recording, revised 11/1/2017, the
policy indicated intake and output (I&O) of fluids is documented when indicated by an Attending physician
order. Nursing staff will be responsible for completing the I&O record at the end of

**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
observation, interview, and record review, the facility failed to ensure a medication was administered per
physician's order for one of four sampled residents (Resident 21).
This deficient practice had the potential for delayed absorption and decrease effectiveness of the
medication, which could affect Resident 21's wellbeing.
Findings:
During a review of the Resident 21's admission Record, the admission Record indicated Resident 21 was
initially admitted to the facility on [DATE] and readmitted on [DATE], with diagnoses of dementia
(progressive brain disorder that slowly destroys memory and thinking skills) with agitation, metabolic
encephalopathy (abnormalities of water, electrolytes, vitamins, and other chemicals that adversely affect
the brain function), and hypertension (high blood pressure).
During a record review of Resident 21's Minimum Data Set (MDS, a resident assessment and tool), dated
1/8/2025, the MDS indicated the resident's cognitive (mental action or process of acquiring knowledge and
understanding) skills for daily decision making was moderately impaired. The MDS indicated Resident 21
was dependent (helper does all the effort, resident does none of the effort to complete the activity) for
toileting hygiene, shower/bathing self, and chair/bed-to-chair transfer. The MDS indicated Resident 21
required substantial/maximal assistance (helper does more than half the effort) for personal hygiene, rolling
left to right, sit to lying, and lying to sitting on side of bed.
During a record review of Resident 21's Physician Order Summary Report, dated 1/31/2025, the order
indicated Aspirin (drug used to treat or prevent heart attacks, strokes, and chest pain) tablet chewable 81
milligram (mg, unit of measurement) - Give one tablet by mouth one time a day for cerebrovascular
accident (CVA - stroke; damage to the brain from interruption of its blood supply) prophylaxis (measures to
preserve health and prevent the spread of disease).
During a record review of Resident 21's care plan, dated 5/3/2021, the care plan indicated Resident 21 was
at risk for bleeding related the use of anticoagulant medication. The care plan interventions for staff were to
administer the medication as ordered and monitor for side effects of anticoagulant.
During an observation on 2/27/2025 at 9:04 AM in Resident 21's room with Licensed Vocational Nurse 2
(LVN 2), LVN 2 gave Resident 21's eight medications in a medication cup. Resident 21 took the cup and
swallowed all the medications.
During an interview on 2/27/2025 at 9:06 AM with LVN 2, LVN 2 stated Resident 21 drank all her
medications at the same time. LVN 2 stated Resident 21 had Aspirin 81 mg which was a chewable tablet,
but Resident 21 swallowed the tablet instead of chewing the tablet. LVN 2 stated the Aspirin was supposed
to be chewed and not swallowed. LVN 2 stated the purpose of chewing the Aspirin was for better absorption
of the medication.
During an interview on 2/28/2025 at 2:20 PM with the Director of Nursing (DON), the DON stated when the
physician placed the order for Aspirin chewable, then the Aspirin should be separated from the

Ensure a licensed pharmacist perform a monthly drug regimen review, including the medical chart,
following irregularity reporting guidelines in developed policies and procedures.
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
interview and record review, the facility failed to act upon the facility's Pharmacy Consultant's
recommendations during the Medication Regimen Review (MRR, a monthly thorough evaluation by the
consulting pharmacist of a resident's medication regimen, with the goal of promoting positive outcomes and
minimizing adverse consequences and potential risks associated with medication) to address the
recommendation/ irregularities for the month of January 2025's MRR for one (1) of five (5) sampled
residents (Resident 4).
This deficient practice had the potential to result in adverse medication outcome for potential unnecessary
medications to Resident 4.
Findings:
During a review of Resident 4's admission Record, the admission record indicated Resident 4 was initially
admitted to the facility on [DATE] and readmitted on [DATE], with diagnoses that included quadriplegia, (a
condition characterized by the complete or partial loss of motor and sensory function in all four limbs, arms
and legs), seizures (a sudden, uncontrolled burst of electrical activity in the brain that can cause temporary
changes in behavior, movement, sensation, or consciousness), and encephalopathy (a group of conditions
that cause brain dysfunction).
During a review of the Minimum Data Set (MDS- resident assessment tool) dated 2/12/2025, indicated
Resident 4 had severely impaired (never/ rarely made decisions) cognitive skills (the mental processes that
allow people to think, learn, and solve problems) for daily decision making. Resident 4 was dependent and
required helper does all the effort, (the assistance of 2 or more helpers is required for the resident to
complete the activity) with the toilet, personal hygiene, change of position, and transfer.
During a review of Consultant Pharmacist's Medication Regimen Review (MRR), dated 1/31/2025, the MRR
indicated Resident 4's current order of Aspirin oral table 325 milligrams (mg, unit of measure) give 1 tablet
by mouth one time a day for CVA (cerebrovascular accident, blood flow to the brain is interrupted, causing
brain cells to die) prophylaxis (to prevent). The MRR indicated that aspirin 81 to 162 mg daily is the
recommended dose; 325 mg is used for pain and using a higher daily dose of aspirin could lead to GI
(gastrointestinal, the organs and system involved in digestion) side effects. MRR indicated MD clarification
for the dose.
During a review of Resident 4's February 2025's Medication Administration Record (MAR), indicated
Aspirin 325 mg was given from 2/1/2025 to 2/28/2025.
During a concurrent interview and record review on 2/28/2025 at 9:24 AM, with the Registered Nurse
Supervisor (RNS 1), RNS 1 stated the Director of Nurses (DON) give assignments to all the licensed staff
to review the January 2025 and February 2025 monthly MRR. RNS 1 stated the doctor was not made
aware of the MRR which indicated the irregular and/ or recommendations by the pharmacist for Resident
4's January 2025 MRR. RNS 1 stated Resident 4's January 2025 MRR was not reviewed and followed up.
RNS 1 stated not notifying the physician to follow up on the pharmacist recommendation can cause
medication side effects to Resident' 4 digestive system, which can lead to resident harm, serious illness,
and/ or worsening of condition.

During an interview on 2/28/2025 at 3:27 PM, with the facility's pharmacist (PHAR), the PHAR stated
pharmacist strongly recommended the facility to review the monthly MRR report and notify individual
resident's physician for any irregularities and recommendations as indicated on the monthly MRR report.
During an interview on 2/28/2025 at 4 PM with the Director of Nurses (DON), the DON stated the Quality
Assurance (QA), and the nurses should have reviewed Resident 4's January 2025 MRR report. The DON
stated review and follow up for the MRR can prevent medication overdose or misuse and it can prevent
harm to the residents.
During a review of the facility Policy and Procedure (P&P) titled, Drug Regimen Review, revised 11/1/2017,
the P&P indicated:
1. The intent is that the facility maintains the resident's highest practicable level of physical, mental and
psychosocial well-being and prevents or minimizes adverse consequences related to medication therapy to
the extent possible, by providing oversight by a licensed pharmacist, attending physician, medical director,
and the director of nursing.
2. The pharmacist will report any irregularities to the attending physician and the facility's medical director
and director of nursing, and these reports must be acted upon.
3. The consulting Pharmacist will report any irregularities such as unnecessary drugs (which include but
are not limited to excessive dosage, excessive duration, inadequate monitoring, inadequate indications for
use or adverse consequences of use) to the Facility's Medical Director, Director of Nursing, and the
Attending Physician.
4. The Attending physician will respond to any irregularities reported by the pharmacist by reviewing the
irregularities and documenting in the resident's medical record that the irregularity has been reviewed, and
what, if any, action has been taken to address it.
a. If no action has been taken, the attending physician must document his/her rationale.
b. Documentation by the Attending Physician must occur within 30 days of issuance of the pharmacist's
report, unless the irregularity is an emergent issue requiring immediate action.
5. The Medical Director and DON will also review the pharmacist's report if any irregularities are identified.

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 follow proper food storage handling practices
in accordance with its policy and procedure by failing to label and discard expired food items stored in the
facility's kitchen refrigerators, freezers, and dry storage.
This deficient practice had the potential to result in food borne illness (any sickness that is caused by the
consumption of foods or beverages that are contaminated with certain infectious or noninfectious agents) in
a population of 50 residents consuming food by mouth.
Findings:
During a concurrent observation and interview on 2/25/2025 at 7:59 AM in the facility kitchen with the
Dietary Aide (DA) and Kitchen Aide (KA), the following food items were observed:
a. One cube of opened butter in the refrigerator with no open date and use by date
b. One carton of Smithfield Pork sausage skinless links in the freezer without a label indicating received
date and use by date.
c. One Frozen bag of chopped spinach without a label indicating received date and use by date.
d. 16 boxes of [NAME] Raisins with a label indicating received date of 11/5/2024 and a best before date of
2/9/2025.
e. Four cans of Ready Care Instant Food thickener with a label indicating delivery date of 2/20/24 and use
by date of 8/20/24.
f. Unopened box of Golden Tip tea bags box with a label indicating received date of 9/20/23. There were no
other labels to indicate use by date or expiration date.
g. one opened box of [NAME] tea bags box with a label indicating delivery date of 9/25/23 and use by date
of 9/24/2024.
h. one bag of opened chicken gravy mix inside a zip log bag with a label indicating open date on 2/20/2023.
There were no other labels to indicate use by date or expiration date.
During an interview on 2/25/2025 at 3:48 PM with DSS, DSS stated per facility policy, all food items
received should be labeled with a received date and a use by date once opened. DSS stated the use by
date is the last day the item can be used and must be discarded after that date. DSS also stated it was
important to label, store, and discard food items per policy to ensure that the food items were safe to eat for
the residents.
During a review of the facility's Policy and Procedure (P&P) titled, Food Storage and Handling, revised
11/1/2017, the P&P indicated to label and date all food items and storage products. Cans should be stored
with labels exposed for easy identification. Dry Storage Guidelines, any opened products should be placed
in storage containers with tight fitting lids, label, and date storage products.

Dispose of garbage and refuse properly.
Level of Harm - Minimal harm
or potential for actual harm
Based on observation, interview, and record review, the facility failed to ensure the lids of one garbage
container (dumpster) remained closed as indicated in the facility policy titled, Garbage and Trash Can Use
and Cleaning.
Residents Affected - Few
This failure had the potential to result in the attraction and spread of vermin (animals that are believed to be
harmful, or that carry diseases, such as rodent's parasitic worms or insects) that could potentially enter the
facility and spread diseases to the residents.
Findings:
During an observation on 2/25/2025 at 12:08 PM in the facility's parking lot dumpster area, there was one
dumpster with two (2) lids which were both left opened. The gate of the dumpster area was not closed.
During an observation on 2/26/2025 at 2:50 PM in the facility's parking lot dumpster area, the dumpster
was observed with one lid closed and one lid open exposing the contents inside the dumpster. The gate of
the dumpster area was not closed.
During an interview on 2/27/2025 at 3:32 PM with the Maintenance Supervisor (MS) and Dietary
Supervisor (DSS), MS and DSS both stated per facility policy, the outside dumpster lids were supposed to
be kept closed at all times and kept clean to keep out flies and rodents and to prevent transfer of disease.
During a review of the facility's Policy and Procedure (P&P) titled, Garbage and Trash Can Use and
Cleaning, revised 11/1/2017, the P&P indicated food waste will be placed in covered garbage and trash
cans.

Arrange for the provision of hospice services or assist the resident in transferring to a facility that will
arrange for the provision of hospice services.
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
interview and record review, the facility failed to ensure provision of hospice (specialized care providing
physical comfort and emotional, social and spiritual support for people nearing the end of life) services for
one of two sampled residents (Resident 36) by failing to ensure:
1.
Hospice nurses (Skilled Nurses [licensed nurses] and Certified Home Health Aide [CHHA]) conducted a
visit according to the hospice care summary order.
2.
Hospice calendar for 2/2025 was completed to reflect frequency of hospice SN and CHHA visits according
to the care summary order.
These deficient practices had the potential to result in a delay or a lack of necessary care and services
which could negatively affect Resident 36s' physical comfort, psychosocial well-being.
Findings:
During a record review of the Resident 36's admission Record, the admission Record indicated Resident
36 was initially admitted to the facility on [DATE] and readmitted on [DATE], with diagnoses of hemiplegia (a
condition caused by brain damage or spinal cord injury that leads to paralysis [loss of motor function in one
or more muscles] on one side of the body) and hemiparesis (weakness on one side of the body) following
cerebral infarction (a stroke, damage to tissue in the brain due to loss of oxygen to the area) affecting right
dominant side, sequelae of cerebral infarction (a stroke, damage to tissue in the brain due to loss of oxygen
to the area), and chronic kidney disease (gradual loss of kidney damage where kidneys cannot filter the
blood the way they should).
During a record review of Resident 36's care plan, revised 1/20/2023, the care plan indicated Resident 36
was under hospice care related to terminal prognosis of end stage of cardiovascular accident (CVA, stroke
- blood flow to part of the brain is blocked or a bleed in the brain). The care plan intervention for staff was to
work cooperatively with hospice team to ensure the resident's spiritual, emotional, intellectual, physical and
social needs are met.
During a record review of Resident 36's Physician Order Summary Report, dated 12/21/2023, indicated
admit to hospice care with diagnosis of end stage CVA.
During a record review of Resident 36's Minimum Data Set (MDS, a resident assessment and tool), dated
1/3/2025, the MDS indicated the resident's cognitive (mental action or process of acquiring knowledge and
understanding) skills for daily decision making was severely impaired. The MDS indicated Resident 36 was
dependent (helper does all the effort, resident does none of the effort to complete the activity) for
shower/bathing self, lower body dressing, and chair/bed-to-chair transferring, and toilet transferring. The
MDS indicated Resident 36 required substantial/maximal assistance (helper does more than half the effort)
for oral hygiene, personal hygiene, rolling left to right, and sit to lying. The MDS also indicated Resident 36
was on hospice care.

Implement a program that monitors antibiotic use.
Level of Harm - Minimal harm
or potential for actual harm
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
interview and record review, the facility failed to implement its protocol for Antibiotic Stewardship to reduce
inappropriate antibiotic (medication used to kill bacteria and to treat infections) use by not administering
antibiotic drug if the antibiotic drug use criteria (Loeb's, an Infection Screening Evaluation in facility's
medical record, surveillance definitions of infections in Long-Term Care Facilities) was not met for one (1) of
two (1) sampled residents (Resident 206).
Residents Affected - Few
This deficient practice had the potential for Resident 206 to develop antibiotic resistance (when bacteria,
viruses, fungi, and parasites no longer respond to antimicrobial medicine and become ineffective making
infections difficult or impossible to treat increasing the risk of disease spread, severe illness, disability, and
death) and suffer adverse side effects from unnecessary or inappropriate antibiotic use.
Findings:
During a review of the Resident 206's admission Record, the admission Record indicated Resident 17 was
admitted to the facility on [DATE], with diagnoses of sepsis (a serious condition resulting from the presence
of harmful microorganisms in the blood), urinary tract infection (UTI, an infection in any part of the urinary
system, the kidneys, bladder [organ that stores urine] or urethra [the tube through which urine leave the
body]), and extended spectrum beta lactamase (ESBL, bacteria) resistance (when bacteria produce
enzymes that make antibiotics unable to treat infections).
During a record review of Resident 206's Minimum Data Set (MDS, a resident assessment and tool), dated
2/23/2025, the MDS indicated the resident's cognitive (mental action or process of acquiring knowledge
and understanding) skills for daily decision making was moderately impaired. The MDS indicated Resident
206 required substantial/maximal assistance (helper does more than half the effort) for sit to standing,
chair/bed-to-chair transferring, and toilet transferring. The MDS also indicated Resident 206 was taking an
antibiotic.
During a record review of Resident 206's Physician Order Summary Report, dated 2/10/2025, the order
indicated Invanz (type of antibiotic used to treat severe infections) Injection Solution Reconstituted 1 gram
(gm, unit of measurement) - Use 1 gm intravenously (IV, administered into a vein) one time a day for
septicemia (an infection that occurs when bacteria enter the bloodstream and spread) for six (6) days in 0.9
% sodium chloride (NaCl, salt) 50 milliliter (ml, unit of volume).
During a record review of Resident 206's Medication Administration Record (MAR, a medical record used
by healthcare providers to document the administration of a medication or treatment) for the month of
February 2025, the MAR indicated Resident 206 received Invanz on the following days: 2/11/2025,
2/12/2025, 2/13/2025, 2/14/2025, 2/15/2025, and 2/16/2025.
During a record review of Resident 206's Surveillance Data Collection Form, dated 2/10/2025, the record
indicated the following Loeb's Minimum Criteria for initiating antibiotics needed to be met:
- Temperature of greater 100 Fahrenheit (?) or 2.4 ? above baseline and
- At least one of the following criteria: rigors (a sudden feeling of cold with shivering accompanied by a rise
in temperature) or delirium (an altered state of consciousness).

During a concurrent interview and review on 2/26/2025 at 4:07 PM of Resident 206's Surveillance Data
Collection Form with the Infection Prevention Nurse (IPN), IPN stated Resident 206 was on Invanz for
community acquired septicemia and status post (s/p, a term used in medicine to refer to a surgical
procedure, diagnosis or just an event) surgery. IPN stated based on Loeb's Criteria Resident 206 did not
have a temperature greater than 100 ?, temperature 2.4 ? above baseline, rigors, or delirium when
admitted to the facility with the antibiotic. IPN stated Resident 206 did not meet the Loeb's criteria for
antibiotic use. IPN stated Resident 206 completed the full 6 days of IV antibiotics. IPN stated the physician
should have been notified when Resident 206 did not meet the Loeb's criteria which indicated Resident 206
was receiving an IV antibiotic that was not needed. IPN stated the purpose of the Antibiotic Stewardship
Program was to monitor the usage of antibiotic and to avoid any resistance to antibiotics.
During an interview on 2/28/2025 at 2:22 PM with the Director of Nursing (DON), the DON stated after
three days, a time out (an active reassessment of an antibiotic prescription to offer the opportunity to modify
therapy) for antibiotic use was done. The DON stated if the resident did not have any signs or symptoms of
an infection, the licensed nurse would need to contact the physician and inform the physician the resident
did not meet the criteria for antibiotic usage. The DON stated an antibiotic time was done to prevent
residents from getting used to taking antibiotics and the continued usage of unnecessary antibiotics would
create resistance. The DON stated the next time the resident was prescribed the antibiotic, the antibiotic
would no longer be effective in treating the infection.
During a record review of the facility's policy and procedure titled, Antibiotic Stewardship Program, revised
12/1/2021, the policy indicated the Antibiotic Stewardship Program (ASP) was designed to promote
appropriate use of antibiotics while optimizing the treatment of infections, and simultaneously reducing the
possible adverse events associated with antibiotic use. The IP will collect and analyze infection surveillance
data and monitor the adherence to the ASP.

Develop and implement policies and procedures for flu and pneumonia vaccinations.
Level of Harm - Minimal harm
or potential for actual harm
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
interview and record review, the facility failed to administer pneumococcal vaccination (vaccine that protect
against bacteria that cause illnesses such as pneumonia [infection of the lungs], ear infections, sinus
infections, meningitis [infection of the tissue covering the brain and spinal cord], and bacteremia [infection
of the blood]) for one of five sampled residents (Resident 30) after obtaining a consent on 2/7/2025.
Residents Affected - Few
This deficient practice placed Residents 30 at higher risk of acquiring and transmitting complications from
the pneumococcal disease.
Findings:
During a review of the Resident 30's admission Record, the admission Record indicated Resident 30 was
admitted to the facility on [DATE], with diagnoses of end stage renal disease (advanced stage kidney
failure), type 2 diabetes mellitus (a disease that occurs when there is a problem in the way the body
regulates and uses sugar as fuel), and myocardial infarction (heart attack).
During a record review of Resident 30's Physician Order Summary, dated 2/5/2025, the order indicated
Pneumococcal Polysaccharide Vaccine (PPV, vaccination that protects against pneumococcal infections [an
infection that causes inflammation and fluid in the lungs]) 0.5 milliliters (ml, unit of volume) intramuscular
(administered into the muscle) and every five years. Informed consent obtained from the
resident/responsible party after explanation of risks and benefits.
During a record review of Resident 30's Pneumonia Vaccine Consent, dated 2/7/2025, the consent
indicated Resident 30 requested for the pneumonia vaccine be administered.
During a record review of Resident 30's Minimum Data Set (MDS, a resident assessment and tool), dated
2/10/2025, the MDS indicated the resident's cognitive (mental action or process of acquiring knowledge
and understanding) skills for daily decision making was moderately impaired. The MDS indicated Resident
30 was dependent (helper does all of the effort and resident does none of the effort to complete the activity)
for sit to standing, chair/bed-to-bed transferring, and toilet transferring. The MDs indicated Resident 30
required substantial/maximal assistance (helper does more than half the effort) for toileting hygiene,
shower/bathing self, sit to lying, and lying to sitting on side of bed. The MDS also indicated Resident 30's
Pneumococcal Vaccine was not up to date.
During a record review of Resident 30's Resident undated Immunization Record History, the record
indicated there was no pneumococcal vaccine administered to Resident 30.
During a record review of Resident 30's undated CAIR2 (a secure, statewide computerized system used to
tract immunization), the record indicated Resident 30 was past due for the PneumoConjugate vaccine
(vaccine that protects against pneumococcal disease).
During a concurrent interview and record review on 2/26/2025 at 3:18 PM with the Infection Prevention
Nurse (IPN) of Resident 30's consent, Immunization Record, and CAIR2, IPN stated Resident 30 requested
to receive the pneumococcal vaccine on 2/7/2025. IPN stated the supervisor informed IPN Resident 30 had
consented to receive the pneumococcal vaccination. IPN stated IPN was supposed to but did not review
Resident 30's medical records for vaccinations. IPN stated IPN should have but did not
