This survey cited 19 deficiencies. The full statement and the facility’s plan of correction follow, verbatim from the federal record.

F 0552 Ensure that residents are fully informed and understand their health status, care and treatments. 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 prescribing provider obtained informed consent from a resident's responsible party for the use of a physical restraint (any manual method, physical or mechanical device, material or equipment that is attached or adjacent to the patient's body that he or she cannot easily remove that restricts freedom of movement or normal access to one's body i.e. [wander guard], a bracelet that a resident wears that alarms when he attempts to exit the facility) for one of one of one resident investigated for the use of restraints. This deficient practice had the potential for the responsible party to not be informed regarding decisions that may affect Resident 47's health conditions. Findings: During a review of Resident 47's admission Record, the admission Record indicated the resident was admitted to the facility on [DATE] with diagnoses including hemiplegia (total paralysis of the arm, leg, and trunk on the same side of the body) following stroke (loss of blood flow to a part of the brain) affecting the left side, and aphasia (a disorder that makes it difficult to speak). During a review of Resident 47' s Minimum Data Set (MDS, a resident assessment tool), dated 5/21/2025, the MDS indicated Resident 47 was severely impaired in cognition (the process of acquiring knowledge and understanding through thought, experience, and the senses) with skills required for daily decision making. The MDS indicated Resident 47 was able to walk 10 feet in the hallway with partial assistance (helper does less than half the effort). The MDS indicated Resident 47 has not exhibited wandering behavior. During a review of Resident 47's History and Physical (H&P), dated 5/17/2025, the H&P indicated the resident does not have the capacity to understand and make decisions. During a review of Resident 47's Physician's Orders, the orders indicated the following: May have wander guard in place, dated 5/15/2025 and discontinued on12/02/2025. Monitor blue wearable wander guard in place, dated 5/15/2025 and discontinued on 12/02/2025. During a review of Resident 47's Informed Consent for use of a Wander Guard, dated 5/15/2025, the Informed Consent indicated Resident 47 was self-responsible and unable to sign. During a concurrent interview and record review with Registered Nurse 1 (RN 1) on 12/04/2025 at 8:20 a.m., reviewed the policy for physical restraints and Resident 47's medical records including informed consents, H&P dated 5/17/2025, and Interdisciplinary Team (IDT, a group of disciplines such as nursing, physician, and social services who meet with a resident or their responsible party to discuss interventions for their medical plan of care) Care Plan Conference Summary dated 8/25/2025. RN 1 stated that the policy indicated the wander guard is considered a restraint. RN 1 stated that Resident 47's Informed Consent for use of a wander guard indicated Resident 47 was self-responsible and unable to sign because at that time, the facility was unaware Resident 47 had family. RN 1 stated that after the facility was notified Resident 47 had family (unable to state the specific date), they (licensed nurses) should have obtained the resident's responsible party a written consent. RN 1 stated Resident 47's History and Physical indicated the resident does not have the capacity to understand and make decisions and it was important to Residents Affected - Few (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.

F 0578 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Few 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. Based on interview and record review the facility failed to implement the facility's policy and procedure titled Advance Directives, for two of three residents (Resident 3 and Resident 2) reviewed under the Advance Directive Care area by failing to:1.Maintain a copy of Resident 3's Advance Directive in the resident's medical record. 2. Ensure that Resident 1 was provided written information concerning the resident's right to prepare an Advance Directive. These deficient practices had the potential for the facility to not honor the resident's medical decisions regarding end-of-life treatment and had the potential to cause conflict with Resident 3 and 2's wishes regarding their medical care. Findings:? 1. During a review of Resident 3's admission Record, the admission Record indicated the facility admitted the resident on 9/18/2023 with diagnoses including Alzheimer's disease (a progressive brain disorder causing nerve cell damage, leading to memory loss, thinking difficulties, and behavioral changes) and hypertension (high blood pressure).? During a review of Resident 3's Minimum Data Set (MDS - a resident assessment tool), dated 9/12/2025, the MDS indicated the resident had the ability to usually make self- understood and the ability to usually understand others. The MDS indicated Resident 3 required substantial/maximal assistance with oral hygiene, shower, upper body dressing and dependent on staff for toileting, lower body dressing and putting on and taking off footwear. During a concurrent interview and record review on 12/3/2025 at 8:24 a.m., with Registered Nurse 2 (RN 2), Resident 3's Advance Directive Acknowledgement Form dated 12/13/2023 (ADAF) was reviewed. RN 2 stated that Resident 3's Advance Directive Acknowledgement Form indicated that Resident 3 has executed an advance directive. During review of Resident 3`s electronic medical record and physical chart, RN 2 verified that there was no copy of the advance directive in Resident 3's electronic medical record or physical chart. RN 2 stated that an advance directive would indicate the resident`s healthcare wishes and it is important to have it accessible during an emergency so facility staff can determine whether the resident has chosen full treatment or not. RN 2 stated that it is a violation of the Resident 3's rights if his/her healthcare wishes are not honored.? During a review of the facility`s policy and procedure (P&P), titled Advance Directive, last reviewed on 5/14/205, the P&P indicated that It is the policy of the facility that a resident may develop an advance directive relative to his/her refusal of medical or surgical treatment, which will be followed in accordance with this policy and procedure and current State Law.the resident or their responsible party will be asked if the resident has completed an advance directive, and provide a copy of the document for the resident`s clinical record. 2. During a review of Resident 2's admission Record, the admission Record indicated the facility originally admitted Resident 2 to the facility on 6/12/2024 and readmitted the resident on 11/30/2024 with diagnoses including sepsis (a life-threatening condition that arises when the body's response to infection causes injury to its own tissues and organs), pyelonephritis (a urinary tract infection [UTI] that occurs when bacteria enter the urinary tract [drainage system to urinate] and travel up to one or both kidneys [body organ that filters and remove waste from the blood]) and lack of coordination.

During a concurrent interview and record review on 12/2/2025 at 9:33 a.m., with the Social Service Director (SSD), Resident 2's electronic and physical chart was reviewed. The SSD stated that she could not locate Resident 2's Advance Directive Acknowledgement form. The SSD stated that upon admission they are supposed to check with the resident or the resident's representative if the resident has an advance directive and if the resident does not have one, they have to offer information on how to formulate one. The SSD stated it is important to check for an advance directive to ensure the facility is aware of the resident or the resident representative's wishes regarding medical care. During an interview on 12/4/2025 at 8:28 a.m., with the Director of Nursing (DON), the DON stated that it is important to check whether or not the resident or resident representative has executed an advance directive and/or provide information on how to formulate one on admission to ensure the facility is aware of the resident's wishes regarding their health care. During a review of facility's policy and procedure (P&P), titled, Advance Directives, reviewed on 5/14/2025, the P&P indicated, Prior to, or upon admission, resident will be provided with written information concerning the resident's rights under the State law to prepare an advance directive.

This deficient practice had the potential to violate Resident 47's representative's right to be informed of the treatment and services provided to Resident 47.Findings: During a review of Resident 47's admission Record, the admission Record indicated the resident was admitted to the facility on [DATE] with diagnoses including hemiplegia (total paralysis of the arm, leg, and trunk on the same side of the body) following stroke (loss of blood flow to a part of the brain) affecting the left side, and aphasia (a disorder that makes it difficult to speak). During a review of Resident 47' s Minimum Data Set (MDS, a resident assessment tool), dated 5/21/2025, the MDS indicated Resident 47 was severely impaired in cognition (the process of acquiring knowledge and understanding through thought, experience, and the senses) with skills required for daily decision making. The MDS indicated Resident 47 was able to walk 10 feet in the hallway with partial assistance (helper does less than half the effort). The MDS indicated Resident 47 has not exhibited wandering behavior. During a review of Resident 47's History and Physical (H&P), dated 5/17/2025, the H&P indicated the resident does not have the capacity to understand and make decisions. During an observation on 12/01/2025 at 10:02 a.m. observed Resident 47 in his bed sleeping. Certified Nursing Assistant 1 (CNA 1) was standing inside the resident's room. CNA 1 stated she is watching Resident 47 because he tries to go outside of the facility. During a review of Resident 47's most current and past Physician's Orders on 12/1/2025, there was no order for a one-to-one sitter.

During a review of Resident 47's SBAR (situation, background, assessment, recommendation-a communication tool used by healthcare workers when there is a change of condition among the residents), dated 10/24/2025, the SBAR indicated Resident 47 removed both wander guards. During a review of Resident 47's Elopement (the act of leaving a facility unsupervised and without prior authorization) Risk Assessment, dated 5/15/2025, the assessment indicated Resident 47 is assessed to be at risk for elopement; is ambulatory and exhibits wandering behavior; cognitively impaired, and obtained an order for wander guard placement due to elopement risk. During a review of Resident 47's Care Plan for Risk for Elopement, dated 5/15/2025, the care plan indicated a goal that Resident 47 will remain in the facility without episodes of elopement daily for 90 days. The care plan did not indicate an intervention with an order for one-to-one sitter. During a telephone interview with Resident 47's responsible party (RP) on 12/03/2025 at 12:16 p.m., the RP stated that she was told by another family member who was the former responsible party (FRP) that Resident 47 removed his wander guard and refused to have one be reapplied. When asked if she was aware that Resident 47 had a one-to-one sitter, the RP stated neither she nor the FRP has been notified by the facility.

F 0582 Give residents notice of Medicaid/Medicare coverage and potential liability for services not covered. 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 in writing the completed Skilled Nursing Facility Advance Beneficiary Notice (SNF ABN, a notification to the resident or responsible party [RP] of the potential liability charges for services not covered when the resident was discharged from Medicare Part A services [Medicare that helps pay inpatient care in a hospital, critical access hospital or a skilled nursing facility] with benefit days remaining) for one (Resident 43) of three sampled residents reviewed during the Beneficiary Notification task. This deficient practice had the potential to result in Resident 43 or their representative not being able to exercise their rights to be informed in advance of financial responsibilities, request an expedited review upon appeal, or determine in advance the course of their care. Findings: During a review of Resident 43's admission Record, the admission Record indicated the facility admitted the resident to the facility on 6/19/2025 with diagnoses including diabetes mellitus (a disorder characterized by difficulty in blood sugar control and poor wound healing). During a review of Resident 43' s Minimum Data Set (MDS, a resident assessment tool), dated 9/22/2025, the MDS indicated Resident 43 was severely impaired in cognition (the process of acquiring knowledge and understanding through thought, experience, and the senses) with skills required for daily decision making. The MDS indicated Resident 43 needed setup or clean-up assistance (helper sets up or cleans up; resident completes activity) with eating. During a review of Resident 43's SNF ABN form, undated, the form indicated Resident 43 no longer met the Medicare part A guidelines for skilled nursing care and rehab services. Resident 43's SNF ABN form indicated Resident 43's last covered day was 8/21/2025 and beginning on 8/22/2025, the resident may have to pay out of pocket for this care if the resident does not have other insurance that may cover these costs. The SNF ABN form was not completed for the selection of the following: Option 1. I want the care listed above. I want Medicare to be billed for an official decision on payment, which will be sent to me on a Medicare Summary Notice (MSN). I understand that if Medicare doesn't pay, I'm responsible for paying, but I can appeal to Medicare by following the directions on the MSN . Option 2. I want the care listed above, but don't bill Medicare. I understand that I may be billed now because I am responsible for payment of the care. I cannot appeal because Medicare won't be billed. Option 3. I don't want the care listed above. I understand that I'm not responsible for paying, and I can't appeal to see if Medicare would pay. The SNF ABN form indicated the facility spoke with Resident 43's Responsible Party (RP 43), where the form indicated Signature of Patient or Authorized Representative on 9/09/2025, 19 days after the last covered day. During a concurrent interview and record review with the Accounts Receivables Supervisor (ARS) on 12/04/2025 at 10 a.m., Resident 43's SNF ABN form was reviewed. The ARS confirmed that Resident 43's responsible party, was notified on 9/09/2025 that Resident 43's last covered day was 8/21/2025. The ARS stated that the form should have been given 72 hours before the last covered day. The ARS stated this is important to ensure that a resident can appeal the decision and possibly have services extended longer than the last covered day. During a concurrent interview and record review with the Director of Nurses (DON) on 12/04/2025 at 1 p.m., reviewed Resident 43's SNF ABN form. The DON stated Resident 43's responsible party should have been notified three days prior to the last covered day. The DON stated this is important to make sure the residents and RPs are aware of the last day of covered services and to ensure they are aware of the right to appeal the decision. During an interview with the ARS on 12/04/2025 at 3:30 p.m., the ARS stated the facility does not have a policy for beneficiary notices but follows the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS, is?a federal agency under the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) Residents Affected - Few (continued on next page) FORM CMS-2567 (02/99) Previous Versions Obsolete Event ID: Facility ID: 056031 If continuation sheet Page 7 of 42 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 056031 B.

F 0583 Keep residents' personal and medical records private and confidential. Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Based on observation, interview, and record review, the facility failed to maintain residents' privacy of confidential information when Licensed Vocational Nurse 3 (LVN 3) stepped away and left the computer on the medication cart in Station 3 unlocked and unattended. This deficient practice had the potential to violate the right to privacy of all residents in the facility. Findings: During a concurrent observation and interview on 12/03/2025 at 11:37 a.m., with Registered Nurse 5 (RN 5) observed Station 3 Medication Cart with the computer screen open that provided access to resident's electronic health records (EHR- a digital version of a patient's paper chart). RN 5 stated, when a licensed nurse leaves the medication cart, they are to lock the computer so no one will have access to residents' records. RN 5 stated this is important to ensure residents' records are kept private. During a concurrent observation and interview on 12/03/2025 at 11:42 a.m., with Licensed Vocational Nurse 3 (LVN 3) observed the Station 3 medication cart computer screen open. LVN 3 stated she stepped away from the medication cart and should have locked the computer to prevent anyone from having access to residents' records. During an interview with the Director of Nurses (DON) on 12/04/2025 at 1:05 p.m., the DON stated that licensed nurses should lock the computer when leaving the medication cart. The DON stated it is important to maintain residents' privacy. The DON stated leaving a computer open, although not open to a particular residents' record on the computer screen, could potentially allow anyone to access residents' records.

Resident 61's tray table was not kept clean and free of clutter during mealtime. This deficient practice had the potential to negatively impact Resident 61's quality of life, and placing Resident 61 at risk for not properly eating during mealtimes. 2. An alarm located near Resident 17 and Resident 76s' rooms activated each time a staff member exited and entered through the smoking patio gate. This deficient practice denied Residents 17 and 76 the right to a comfortable, homelike environment and had the potential to negatively impact their quality of life. Findings: 1. During a review of Resident 61's admission Record admission Record indicated the facility originally admitted Resident 61 on 1/20/2022 and readmitted the resident on 3/4/2024 with diagnoses including paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (an irregular rapid heart rate that commonly causes poor blood flow), chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD-group of lung diseases that block airflow and make it difficult to breathe) and generalized muscle weakness. During review of Resident 61's Minimum Data Set (MDS - a comprehensive standardized assessment and care-screening tool), dated 10/22/2025, the MDS indicated Resident 61 has severely impaired cognition (mental action or process of acquiring knowledge and understanding) for daily decision-making and required supervision assistance needed from staff with most of activities of daily living (ADLs-bed mobility, surface transfer, eating, walk in room, dressing, toileting, and personal hygiene). During a concurrent observation and interview on 12/1/2025 at 9:58 a.m., with Registered Nurse 2 (RN 2), in Resident 61's room, Resident 61's breakfast meal tray was observed on the tray table, along with other items. RN 2 stated Resident 61's tray table was dirty and cluttered with unnecessary things in it such as an opened disinfectant wipes container, gloves, masks, disposable undergarments and plastic bags. RN 2 stated that resident's tray table should be clean, tidy and uncluttered during mealtimes. During an interview on 12/4/2025 at 8:28 a.m., with the Director of Nursing (DON), the DON stated that residents' rooms should always be clean and clutter free to promote a homelike environment. The DON also stated that the tray table should always be clean and neat with no other things in it except the meal tray during mealtimes. During a review of facility's policy and procedure (P&P), titled, Comfortable Environment, reviewed on 5/14/2025, the P&P indicated, Facility to maintain a safe, clean, comfortable environment for residents. 2. During a review of Resident 17's admission Record, the admission Record indicated the facility originally admitted the resident to the facility on 7/27/2017 and readmitted the resident on 11/10/2025 with diagnoses including, but not limited to, acute pyelonephritis (kidney infection), depression (a mood disorder that causes a persistent feeling of sadness and loss of interest), and difficulty in walking.

F 0584 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Some During a review of Resident 17's MDS, dated [DATE], the MDS indicated the resident had adequate hearing, was cognitively intact (able to think, learn, and remember clearly), and needed moderate assistance with most activities of daily living (ADLs- activities such as bathing, dressing and toileting a person performs daily). During a review of Resident 76's admission Record, the admission Record indicated the facility admitted the resident to the facility on 4/27/2023 with diagnoses including, but not limited to, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD-a chronic lung disease causing difficulty in breathing), depression, and generalized muscle weakness. During a review of Resident 76's H&P dated 11/30/2025, the H&P indicated the resident had the capacity to understand and make decisions. During a review of Resident 76's MDS, dated [DATE], the MDS indicated the resident had adequate hearing, was cognitively intact, and required light assistance by setting up or cleaning up with most ADLs. During an observation period of two hours on 12/4/2025 between 7:30 a.m. and 9:30 a.m. the alarm for the smoking patio gate activated inside the facility 34 times at 7:38 a.m., 7:41 a.m., 7:42 a.m., 7:42 a.m. again, 7:44 a.m., 7:56 a.m., 7:57 a.m., 7:59 a.m., 8:01 a.m., 8:03 a.m., 8:09 a.m., 8:15 a.m., 8:16 a.m., 8:18 a.m., 8:23 a.m., 8:23 a.m. again, 8:28 a.m., 8:29 a.m., 8:29 a.m. again, 8:30 a.m., 8:32 a.m., 8:33 a.m., 8:40 a.m., 8:45 a.m., 8:49 a.m., 8:59 a.m., 9:02 a.m., 9:04 a.m., 9:04 a.m. again, 9:06 a.m., 9:07 a.m., 9:15 a.m., 9:19 a.m., and 9:24 a.m. During a concurrent observation and interview on 12/4/2025 at 7:38 a.m. observed the Central Supply (CS) staff open the smoking patio gate setting the alarm off. The CS staff stated the alarm goes off inside often because facility staff only has two seconds to put in the code to deactivate the alarm and it is not long enough. The CS staff stated facility staff has to enter and exit through the gate to go to the laundry and maintenance storage areas and they also use it to get to the parking area behind the facility. During a concurrent observation and interview on 12/4/2025 at 8:16 a.m., observed Janitor (JN) 1 enter the smoking patio gate setting the alarm off. JN 1 stated he had been using the smoking patio gate to retrieve equipment located on the other side of the gate that he needed to clean the patio. During an interview on 12/4/2025 at 8:55 a.m. with Resident 76, Resident 76 stated he can hear the alarm going off frequently while he is in his room. Resident 76 stated it goes off all the time every day, including at night. Resident 76 stated when the alarm first started going off a lot it would bother him, but now he has become used to the noise. Resident 76 stated it is now like background noise to him. During an interview on 12/4/2025 at 12:05 p.m. with Resident 17, Resident 17 stated when the door to his room is open the sound of the alarm bothers him because it is right by him. Resident 17 stated people often forget to close the door to his room and then the alarm sound is very loud. Resident 17 stated he always keeps the door to his room closed because of the noise. During an interview on 12/4/2025 at 1:58 p.m. with the Director of Nursing (DON), the DON stated the facility should have a calm, homelike environment with no excessive noise level so residents can rest comfortably and sleep.

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 follow its policy and procedure (P&P) on physical restraint to ensure residents were free from any physical restraints (any manual method, physical or mechanical device, material or equipment that is attached or adjacent to the patient's body that he or she cannot easily remove that restricts freedom of movement or normal access to one's body) by failing to ensure there was documentation supporting the use of the wander guard (a bracelet that a resident wears that alarms when he attempts to exit the facility) for one of one of one resident investigated for the use of restraints. This deficient practice had the potential to result in psychological harm for Resident 47. Findings: During a review of Resident 47's admission Record, the admission Record indicated the facility admitted the resident to the facility on 5/14/2025 with diagnoses including hemiplegia (total paralysis of the arm, leg, and trunk on the same side of the body) following stroke (loss of blood flow to a part of the brain) affecting the left side, and aphasia (a disorder that makes it difficult to speak). During a review of Resident 47' s Minimum Data Set (MDS, a resident assessment tool), dated 5/21/2025, the MDS indicated Resident 47 was severely impaired in cognition (the process of acquiring knowledge and understanding through thought, experience, and the senses) with skills required for daily decision making. The MDS indicated Resident 47 was able to walk 10 feet in the hallway with partial assistance (helper does less than half the effort). The MDS indicated Resident 47 has not exhibited wandering behavior. During a review of Resident 47' s MDS, dated [DATE], the MDS indicated Resident 47 was severely impaired in cognition with skills required for daily decision making.

During a review of Resident 47's Elopement Risk Assessment, reviewed 8/25/2025, the assessment indicated Resident 47 was not risk for elopement. During a review of Resident 47's Elopement Assessment, reviewed 11/14/2025, the assessment indicated Resident 47 was at risk for elopement. During a review of Resident 47's Care Plan for Risk for Elopement, dated 5/15/2025, the care plan indicated a goal that Resident 47 will remain in the facility without episodes of elopement daily for 90 days. The care plan indicated an intervention for Resident 47 to wear a wander guard on arm or leg as ordered, placement and function placed. During a review of Resident 47's Resident Monitoring Sheets (a document that indicates where a resident is located each hour in the facility) from 5/15/2025 until 12/04/2025, the monitoring sheets indicated Resident 47's whereabouts in the facility hourly. The monitoring sheets did not indicate Resident 47 had any episodes of wandering. During an observation on 12/01/2025 at 10:02 a.m. observed Resident 47 in his bed sleeping. Certified Nursing Assistant 1 (CNA 1) was standing inside the resident's room. CNA 1 stated she is watching him because he tries to go outside of the facility. During a telephone interview with Resident 47's responsible party (RP) on 12/03/2025 at 12:16 p.m., the RP stated that she was told by another family member who was formerly the responsible party (FRP) that Resident 47 removed his wander guard and refused to wear one anymore. During a concurrent interview and recorder review with Registered Nurse 1 (RN 1) on 12/03/2025 at 3:30 p.m., Resident 47's medical record including SBAR form, dated 10/24/2025, MDS dated [DATE], 8/20/2025, and 11/19/2025, IDT Conference Summary dated 8/25/2025, CNA monitoring sheets and the facility policy and procedure titled Physical Restraints last reviewed on 5/14/2025 were reviewed.

RN 1 confirmed there were no episodes of Resident 47 wandering, but only that Resident 47 removed his wander guards and refused to have them placed back on. RN 1 stated Resident 47's MDS for 5/21/2025, 8/20/2025, and 11/19/2025, indicated Resident 47 was not at risk for elopement. RN 1 stated the MDS was coded this way because there were no progress notes or SBARs indicating Resident 47 had actual episodes of wandering. RN 1 stated the facility was aware of past wandering behavior from the general acute care hospital (GACH, or simply hospital) before admission to the facility. RN 1 stated Resident 47's IDT for 8/25/25 did not have documentation that indicate the resident has wandering behavior currently in the facility. RN 1 stated Resident 47's Resident Monitoring Sheets from 5/15/2025 to 12/04/2025 which indicated Resident 47's whereabouts each hour, did not indicate Resident 47 wandered or tried to wander outside the facility. RN 1 confirmed that the Physical Restraints policy indicated a wander guard is considered a physical restraint. RN 1 stated that if there is no documentation to support the use of the wander guard that could violate the resident's rights and be a potential for psychological harm. During an interview with CNA 2 on 12/4/2025 at 7:11 a.m., she stated she was assigned to watch Resident 47 on the 11 p.m. to 7 a.m. shift that previous night.

Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm **NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on observation, interview, and record review, the facility failed to ensure that its medication error rate was less than five (5) percent (%). Three (3) medication errors out of 25 total opportunities contributed to an overall medication error rate of 12% affecting three (3) of five (5) residents observed for medication administration (Resident 37, 70, and 101.) The medication errors were as follows: Resident 37 received aspirin (a medication used for cerebrovascular accidents ([CVA] - an interruption in the flow of blood to cells in the brain] by thinning the blood,) prophylaxis ([PPX] - action taken to prevent disease,) at a different time than ordered by Resident 37's physician. 2. Resident 70 received a form of multivitamin (a medication used as dietary supplement to provide vitamins, minerals, and other nutritional elements as tolerated) that was different than the one ordered by Resident 70's physician. 3. Resident 101 received carvedilol (a medication used to for hypertension [HTN - a condition in which the blood vessels have persistently raised pressure]) at a different time than ordered by Resident 101's physician. These failures had the potential to result in Resident 37, 70, and 101 receiving suboptimal (less than standard) care, experiencing adverse effects (unwanted, uncomfortable, or dangerous effects that a medication may have) and resulting in Residents 37, 70, and 101 health and well-being negatively impacted. Findings: During an observation on 12/1/2025 at 9:05 a.m., in Medication Cart Station 3, Licensed Vocational Nurse (LVN) 5 was observed administering carvedilol 6.25 milligram ([mg]-a unit of measure of mass) tablet orally to Resident 101.

Resident 37 was observed swallowing the aspirin tablet with a glass of juice. During an observation on 12/1/2025 at 10 a.m., in Medication Cart Station 4, Registered Nurse (RN) 4 was observed administering multivitamin with minerals tablet orally to Resident 70. Resident 70 was observed swallowing the multivitamin with mineral tablet with a glass of water. During an interview on 12/1/2025 at 12:05 p.m., with RN 4, RN 4 stated RN 4 administered multivitamin with minerals tablet earlier at 10 a.m. to Resident 70. RN 4 stated RN 4 acknowledged the physician order for Resident 70 indicated to give multivitamin not containing minerals. RN 4 stated RN 4 failed to administer the correct multivitamin as prescribed by Resident 70's physician. RN 4 stated administering multivitamin with minerals to Resident 70 may not be beneficial to their health and may cause adverse effects if unable to process the extra minerals. RN 4 stated this was considered a medication error. During an interview on 12/1/2025 at 12:20 p.m., with LVN 5, LVN 5 stated LVN administered carvedilol 6.25 mg tablet during the morning medication administration at 9:05 a.m. to Resident 101. LVN 5 acknowledged the physician order for Resident 101 specified to administer carvedilol at 7:30 a.m. with breakfast to prevent stomach discomfort. LVN 5 stated Resident 101 had breakfast at 7 a.m. LVN 5 stated per facility policy there was a 60-minute window for medication administration and LVN 5 administered carvedilol later than that timeframe. LVN 5 stated LVN 5 failed to administer carvedilol as prescribed by Resident 101's physician placing Resident 101 at risk of receiving the next dose closer in time and experiencing stomach irritation.

Based on observation, interview, and record review, the facility failed to:1. Ensure the concentration of the quaternary ammonium sanitizing solution (common, effective chemical used in disinfectants for hard surfaces, killing germs like bacteria or viruses) used to clean kitchen surfaces was maintained at 200 parts per million (ppm- a unit used to express the concentration of a substance in a solution or mixture) to ensure effectiveness of the solution. This failure had the potential to result in harmful bacterial growth and cross contamination (transfer of harmful bacteria from one place to another) in food preparation surfaces that could lead to foodborne illnesses (a disease caused by consuming food or drinks that are contaminated by germs or chemicals) for 102 of 108 medically compromised residents who receive food and ice from the kitchen. ?2. Ensure food items brought from home were refrigerated or discarded and not left at the bedside for more than 24 hours for one of one sampled resident (Resident 37).This deficient practice had the potential to result in food contamination which could result in foodborne illnesses (also called food poisoning, illness caused by eating contaminated food). Findings: 1. During a concurrent kitchen observation and interview on 12/1/2025 at 7:57 a.m., with [NAME] 1 (CK 1), inspected the kitchen area. CK 1 stated that they use a quaternary ammonium sanitizing solution to clean surfaces including the food preparation area. CK 1 pointed to a red bucket which was filled with the sanitizing solution and stated that they are getting ready to clean and use this sanitizing solution in the red bucket. CK 1 stated that they regularly test the sanitizing solution with a test strip to determine if it has the correct concentration, which is 200 ppm. CK 1 then opened a canister containing test strips and took a test strip out and dipped it into the red bucket filled with the sanitizing solution. CK 1 then compared the color from the test strip with the color guide on the test strip canister to determine the sanitizing solution concentration. Upon comparing the color of the test strip with the color guide from the test strip canister, CK 1 stated that the sanitizing solution concentration is below 100 ppm. CK 1 then discarded the solution from the red bucket and filled it with a fresh sanitizing solution and retested, which again showed that the sanitizing solution concentration was less than 100 ppm. CK 1 stated that she (CK 1) would have to tell her supervisor and will not use the available sanitizing solution.

F 0883 Develop and implement policies and procedures for flu and pneumonia vaccinations. Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Based on interview and record review, the facility failed to ensure the pneumococcal vaccine (prevents infection from pneumonia [infection that infects one of both lungs]) was offered to one of seven sampled residents (Resident 58) per the facility's policy. This deficient practice placed Resident 58 at a higher risk of acquiring and transmitting pneumonia to other residents in the facility. Findings: During a review of Resident 58's admission Record, the admission Record indicated the facility originally admitted the resident on 2/11/2019 and re-admitted the resident on 12/3/2025 with diagnoses including acute respiratory failure with hypoxia (a condition where your lungs suddenly cannot get enough oxygen into your blood), sepsis (a life-threatening condition that arises when the body's response to an infection causes injury to its own tissues and organs) and diabetes mellitus (DM- a chronic condition that affects the way the body processes blood sugar [glucose]). During review of Resident 58's Minimum Data Set (MDS - a resident assessment tool) dated 11/28/2025, the MDS indicated Resident 58 had moderately impaired cognition (mental action or process of acquiring knowledge and understanding) for daily decision-making and was dependent from staff for activities of daily living (ADLs- bed mobility, surface transfer, eating, walk in room, dressing, toileting, and personal hygiene).

Resident 58's immunization consent forms indicated a missing PNA vaccine consent. The IPN stated Resident 58's PNA vaccine consent form was missing and stated that she (IPN) was not sure why the PNA vaccine was not offered to Resident 58. The IPN also stated since Resident 58 received the first dose of PNA23, the second dose of PNA23 dose is needed and should have been offered to Resident 58. During an interview on 12/4/2025 at 8:28 a.m., with the Director of Nursing (DON), the DON verified by stating that Resident 58 was due for a PNA vaccine. The DON also stated that the facility was supposed to check and verify all residents' PNA vaccines and offer it as needed due to the risk of possible PNA infection if not given a vaccine. The DON also stated that Resident 58 was at high risk for PNA infection. During a review of the facility's policy and procedure (P&P) titled, PNA Vaccine for Residents, reviewed on 5/14/2025, the P&P indicated, Facility to offer residents PNA vaccine in accordance with the latest United States Department of Health and Human Services, and Centers for Diseasce Control and Prevention (CDC) recommendations.

Based on interview and record review, the facility failed to ensure a Coronavirus Disease (COVID-19, a severe respiratory illness caused by virus and transmitted from person to person) vaccination was administered after a resident's representative gave consent (agreement to accept treatment and/or procedures after receiving education regarding the risks, benefits, and alternatives offered) to be vaccinated for one of seven sampled residents (Resident 14).This deficient practice placed Resident 14 at a higher risk of acquiring (to get) and transmitting (pass on) the COVID-19 virus to other residents in the facility. Findings: During a review of Resident 14's admission Record, the admission Record indicated the facility admitted the resident on 6/25/2025 with diagnoses including hemiplegia (paralysis on one side of the body), hemiparesis (weakness on one side of the body), and cerebral infarction (lack of blood flow resulting in severe damage to some of the brain tissue). During review of Resident 14's Minimum Data Set (MDS - a resident assessment tool) dated 10/1/2025, the MDS indicated Resident 14 had moderately impaired cognition (mental action or process of acquiring knowledge and understanding) for daily decision-making and was dependent from staff for activities of daily living (ADLs- bed mobility, surface transfer, eating, walk in room, dressing, toileting, and personal hygiene). The MDS also indicated that Resident 14 was not up to date with COVID-19 vaccination. During a concurrent interview and record review on 12/3/2025 at 10:04 a.m., with the Infection Preventionist Nurse (IPN), reviewed Resident 14's immunization record, immunization consent form dated 11/14/2025, and physician order summary were reviewed.

The IPN stated they are supposed to provide a COVID-19 vaccine to residents once consented by the resident and/or resident's representative. The IPN also stated that it is important to offer a COVID-19 vaccine to the residents due to possible risk of COVID-19 infection. During an interview on 12/4/2025 at 8:28 a.m., with the Director of Nursing (DON), the DON verified by stating that Resident 14's immunization consent form was consented by Resident 14's representative on 11/14/2025 for a COVID-19 booster vaccine. The DON also stated that it was important for the facility to administer a COVID-19 vaccine to residents if the resident and/or residents' representative gave consent, to lessen the risk of contracting COVID-19 infection. During a review of the facility's policy and procedure (P&P) titled, COVID-19 Vaccine, reviewed on 5/14/2025, the P&P indicated, COVID-19 vaccinations will be offered to all staff and residents per CDC (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention) and/or FDA (Food and Drug Administration) guidelines unless immunization is medically contraindicated, the individual has already been immunized during the time period or the individual refuses to receive the vaccine.
