Honor the resident's right to request, refuse, and/or discontinue treatment, to participate in or refuse to
participate in experimental research, and to formulate an advance directive.
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
interview and record review, the facility failed to ensure residents' medical records were updated to show
documentation that advance directives (written statement of a person's wishes regarding medical treatment
made to ensure those wishes are carried out should the person be unable to communicate) were discussed
and written information was provided to the residents and/or responsible parties for two of six sampled
residents (Resident 2 and 16).
These deficient practices violated the residents' and/or the representatives' right to be fully informed of the
option to formulate an advance directive and had the potential to cause conflict with the residents' wishes
regarding health care.
Findings:
A. During a review of Resident 2's admission Record, the admission Record indicated Resident 2 was
admitted to the facility on [DATE] with diagnoses including psychosis (a severe mental condition in which
thought, and emotions are so affected that contact is lost with reality) and depression (a mental health
condition that causes persistent sadness and loss of interest in activities that were once enjoyable).
During a review of Resident 2's Minimum Data Set (MDS- a resident assessment tool) dated 4/10/2025, the
MDS indicated Resident 2 had moderate cognitive (ability to think, understand, learn, and remember)
impairment.
During a review of Resident 2's Social Services Progress Note dated 4/10/2025, the Social Services
Progress Note indicated Resident 2 had an advance directive on file.
During a review of Resident 2's Social Services Note dated 6/24/2025 at 11:25 a.m., the Social Services
Note indicated Resident 2 did not have an advance directive and did not wish to formulate one.
B. During a review of Resident 16's admission Record, the admission Record indicated Resident 16 was
initially admitted to the facility on [DATE], and re-admitted to the facility on [DATE] with diagnoses including
chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD- a chronic lung disease causing difficulty in breathing) and
paranoid schizophrenia (a pattern of behavior where a person feels distrustful and suspicious of other
people and acts accordingly).
During a review of Resident 16's MDS dated [DATE], the MDS indicated Resident 16 was cognitively intact.

observation, interview , and record review, the facility failed to ensure one of four sampled residents
(Resident 21) was free of chemical restraints (use of medication to control a patient's behavior or restrict
the patient's movement and not required to treat the medical symptom) by failing to:
1.Ensure Resident 21 was provided non-pharmacological interventions (interventions that does not
primarily use medicine ) before administering a as needed) (prn) psychotropic medication(any drugs that
affects the brain activities associated with mental processes and behavior).
This failure put Resident 21 at risk for adverse reactions (unintended, harmful events attributed to the use
of medication) due to unnecessary prolonged use of psychotropic medication.
Findings:
During a record review of Resident 21's admission Record, the admission Record indicated Resident 21
was initially admitted to the facility on [DATE] and was readmitted on [DATE] with diagnoses including
unspecified dementia (a progressive state of decline in mental abilities) with psychotic disturbance( a
mental state where a person's thoughts and perceptions are significantly impaired leading to disconnect
from reality), schizoaffective disorder (a mental illness that can affect thoughts, mood, and behavior),
generalized anxiety disorder( mental health condition characterized by excessive, persistent, and unrealistic
worry about everyday things) and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD- a chronic lung disease
causing difficulty in breathing).

the MDS indicated Resident 21 had severely impaired cognitive skills( a significant decline in mental
abilities, making it difficult or impossible for an individual to perform daily tasks independently) and required
set-up or clean-up assistance (helper sets up or cleans up and resident completes the activity) with eating
and personal hygiene. The MDS indicated Resident 21 required substantial/maximal assistance( a helper
does more than half the effort) with bathing , dressing, sitting to lying ( ability to move from sitting on side
on bed to lying flat on bed),and lying to sitting on side of bed ( ability move from lying on the back to sitting
on the side of the bed without back support).
During a review of Resident 21's Order Listing Report for Lorazepam (Ativan- medicine used to treat
anxiety and sleeping problems related to anxiety), the Order Listing Report for Lorazepam indicated the
following:
1.Lorazepam 1 milligram( mg -unit of measurement) 1 tablet by mouth every 6 hours as needed for anxiety
manifested by inability to relax for 14 days ordered on 8/2/2024.

Notes were reviewed. LVN 4 stated through record review of Progress Notes and MAR for June 2025,
stated the licensed nurses administering Lorazepam were not documenting non-pharmacological
interventions before administering Lorazepam 1 mg prn for anxiety. LVN 4 stated administering Lorazepam
can relax the resident to the point Resident 21would not be able to participate in her daily activities
because of oversedation( a state of excessive drowsiness or unconsciousness caused by administration of
sedative medications[ a class of drugs that slow down brain activity, inducing relaxation and sleepiness]).
LVN 4 stated not performing non-pharmacological interventions before administering Lorazepam could be a
form of chemical restraint ( use of medication to control a patient's behavior or restrict the patient's
movement and not required to treat the medical symptom) and can affect the resident's quality of life.
During a telephone interview on 6/26/2025, at 9:39 a.m. with Pharmacist Consultant (PC), PC stated best
practice was for the licensed nurses to always use non-pharmacological intervention prior administering
Lorazepam prn.
During a concurrent interview and record review on 6/25/2025, at 3:05 p.m. with RN Supervisor (RNS1),
Resident 21's MAR and Order Summary Report for June 2025 were reviewed. RNS 1 confirmed Resident
21 was on Lorazepam since August 2024 and non- pharmacological interventions were not provided before
Lorazepam was administered to Resident 21. RNS 1 stated Resident 21 had intermittent episodes of yelling
and repeating words in a loud manner. RNS 1 stated the licensed nurses should have provided
non-pharmacological interventions first to make sure the resident's needs were met and to rule out the
causes of restlessness or agitation. RNS 1 stated not providing non-pharmacological interventions before
administering Lorazepam could make the resident sleepy and sedated which will prevent her participating
in activities of daily living and could be a form of chemical restraint. RNS 1 stated licensed nurses should
also monitor for side effects ( an effect of a drug that is in addition to or beyond its desired effect which can
be harmful or beneficial) of Lorazepam like sedation which could lead to fall.
During an interview on 6/26/2025, at 5:33 p.m. with the Director of Nursing (DON), the DON stated the
licensed nurses will assess the resident for signs and symptoms of anxiety and use non-pharmacological
interventions before administering prn lorazepam because the resident could develop tolerance and
respiratory depression( breathing disorder characterized by slow and ineffective breathing). The DON
stated lorazepam could affect her sleep cycle , making her awake at night and sleeping more on the day
affecting the quality of her life.
During a review of facility's policy and procedure (P&P) titled, Behavior/ Psychoactive Medication
Management, dated 5/22/2025, the P&P indicated Anti-anxiety medications is one of the classes of
psychotropic medicines and preventable causes of behavior should be considered for the use of
psychotropic medicines including monitoring for side effects including sedation. The P&P indicated the
licensed nurse will identify contributing factors related to the resident's mood, behavior and non medication interventions to be implemented with collaboration with the healthcare practitioner, family,
resident and IDT (Interdisciplinary team- team of healthcare professionals who discuss and manage
resident's care) members.

During a concurrent interview and record review on 6/25/2025, at 10:17 a.m. with Minimum Data Set Nurse
(MDSN), Resident 38's PASSAR Level 1 and electronic record were reviewed. The MDSN stated the facility
should submit another PASSAR Level 1 if the resident was having a significant change in condition like
change in psychotropic medicines or behavioral changes. MDSN stated she did not review the PASSAR
Level 1 that was submitted by another facility when resident was admitted in the facility. MDSN stated they
should have submitted another PASSAR Level 1 and agreed Resident 38 had behavioral problems like
banging her head on the wall. MDSN stated Resident 38 could have missed recommendations from the
Department of Health Care Services for specialized care related to her mental illness because the
information submitted in the PASSAR was not complete and accurate.
During a review of the facility's policy and procedure (P&P) titled, Pre-admission Screening Resident
Review (PASARR), dated 2022, the P&P indicated, The purpose is to ensure that all residents are
screened for mental illness and intellectual disability or a related condition.
During a review of the facility's P&P titled, Pre-admission Screening Level II Resident Review, dated 2022,
the P&P indicated, The IDT will review the level II evaluation report to develop a care plan and arrange the
Specialized Services recommended for the resident as appropriate. The States is responsible for providing
and paying for specialized services for residents with mental illness or intellectual disabilities residing in a
skilled nursing facility.
Based on interview and record review, the facility failed to follow through and accurately assess with the
Preadmission Screening and Resident Review (PASARR- a federal assessment requirement to help ensure
that individuals who have a mental disorder or intellectual disabilities are placed in facilities that can provide
the appropriate care) Level I for three of 28 sampled residents (Resident 1,Resident 38 and Resident 223)
to determine the facility's ability to provide the special need of the residents. The facility failed to:
1.Complete a preadmission screening and annual resident review (PASARR) I properly for Resident 1 and
223.
2. Review submitted PASARR 1 for accuracy on Resident 38 who had diagnosis of mental illness, was on
psychotropic medicines ( drugs that affect the brain and influence mental processes, emotions and
behavior)and had a change in behavior involving self-harm during the course of resident's stay in the
facility.
These failures had the potential to put Resident 1, 38 and 223 at risk for not receiving necessary care and
services they need.
Findings:
1. During a review of Resident 1's admission Record, the admission Record indicated Resident 1 was
admitted to the facility on [DATE] with diagnoses including bipolar disorder (sometimes called
manic-depressive disorder; mood swings that range from the lows of depression to elevated periods of

6/11/2025, the PASARR I's indicated Resident 1 and 223 had serious mental illness diagnoses and were
prescribed psychotropic medications but their PASARR I screening was negative.
During a concurrent interview and record review on 6/24/2025 at 1:58 p.m., with the Minimum Data Set
Nurse (MDSN), the MDSN indicated the interdisciplinary team (IDT- team members from different
departments working together with a common purpose to set goals and make decisions to ensure residents
receive the best care) review the PASARR's to ensure accuracy and if not, the PASARR is sent back to the
hospital to be redone. The MDSN validated Resident 1 has a diagnosis of bipolar, but his PASARR I was
negative and should have been positive. The MDSN validated Resident 223 has diagnoses of
schizoaffective disorder, bipolar, and anxiety but his PASARR I was negative and should have been
positive. The MDSN stated the PASARR I not being done accurately could result in the residents not
receiving the necessary services and care, being hospitalized , and safety concerns if their care is not
being managed with the proper resources.
During an interview on 6/26/2025 at 6:10 p.m., with the Director of Nursing (DON), the DON stated she
expects her staff to review and ensure the PASARR is completed accurately so the facility can provide the
right care for the residents. The DON stated her understanding of the PASARR is if a resident has a mental
illness, is stable and functioning, their PASARR I would be negative and only positive if the resident is
unstable.

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 one of two sampled residents (Resident 22 and
Resident 11) had a Level II Preadmission Screening and Resident Review (PASARR-a federal assessment
requirement to help ensure that individuals who have a mental disorder or intellectual disabilities are placed
in facilities that can provide the appropriate care) assessment done when diagnosed with a mental illness
prior to admission.
Residents Affected - Few
This failure had the potential to result in Resident 22 and Resident 11 not receiving the necessary services
and appropriate psychiatric( relating to mental illness or its treatment) level of treatment and evaluation in
the facility.
Findings:
During a review of Resident 22's admission Record, the admission Record indicated Resident 22 was
admitted to the facility on [DATE] with diagnoses including diabetes mellitus, (DM-a disorder characterized
by difficulty in blood sugar control and poor wound healing) paranoid schizophrenia(a mental illness that is
characterized by disturbances in thought), major depressive disorder(a mood disorder that causes a
persistent feeling of sadness and loss of interest), and anxiety (a feeling of fear, dread, and uneasiness).
During a review of Resident 22's History and physical (H&P), dated 8/24/2024, the H&P indicated Resident
22 had the capacity to understand and make decisions.
During a review of Resident 22's Minimum Data Set (MDS-a resident assessment tool), dated 5/27/2025,
the MDS indicated Resident 22 was independent with eating, oral hygiene, toileting, dressing and walking.
During a review of Resident 22's Progress Note, dated 6/2/2025, the Progress Note indicated Resident 22
continues to benefit from psychotherapy (an approach for treating mental health issues) to reduce mood
symptoms and to assist with adjustment to medical conditions, functional limitations, increased need for
assistance, and rehabilitation placement. Prognosis is guarded due to medical conditions.
2. During a review of Resident 11's admission Record, the admission Record indicated Resident 11 was
originally admitted to the facility on [DATE] and readmitted to the facility on [DATE] with diagnoses including
major depressive disorder, anxiety, and bipolar disorder (mood swings that range from the lows of
depression to elevated periods of emotional highs).
During a review of Resident 11's H&P, dated 5/16/2024, the H&P indicated Resident 11 did not have the
capacity to understand and make decisions.
During a review of Resident 11's MDS, dated [DATE], the MDS indicated Resident 11 was independent with
eating. The MDS indicated Resident 11 needed substantial to maximal assistance from nursing staff with
toileting, and showering. The MDS indicated Resident 11 required partial to moderate assistance from
nursing staff with dressing, sitting and transferring.

or potential for actual harm
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
observation and interview, the facility failed to ensure one of two residents' (Resident 2) was provided with
personal hygiene care.
Residents Affected - Few
This deficient practice resulted in Resident 2's facial hair being too long to shave with a razor, requiring the
use of an electrical razor and had the potential to affect Resident 2's dignity.
Findings:
During an observation on 6/23/2025 at 10:27 a.m., in the hallway outside of Resident 2's room, Resident 2
was observed with long unkempt facial hair. Resident 2 was observed asking the staff to shave him.
During a review of Resident 2's admission Record, the admission Record indicated Resident 2 was
admitted to the facility on [DATE] with diagnoses including psychosis (a severe mental condition in which
thought, and emotions are so affected that contact is lost with reality) and depression (a mental health
condition that causes persistent sadness and loss of interest in activities that were once enjoyable).
During a review of Resident 2's Minimum Data Set (MDS- a resident assessment tool) dated 4/10/2025, the
MDS indicated Resident 2 had moderate cognitive (ability to think, understand, learn, and remember)
impairment and required moderate assistance (helper does less than half the effort) with personal hygiene.
During a concurrent observation and interview on 6/24/2024 at 12:21 p.m., with Certified Nurse Assistant
(CNA) 1, in Resident 2's room, CNA 1 validated Resident 2's face needed to be shaved, and she should
have offered when she noticed it. CNA 1 stated Resident 2's facial hair is so long, she will need to use an
electric razor. CNA 2 stated when Resident 2 requested a shave yesterday, it should have been done
because it could affect his dignity on how he feels and looks.
During an interview on 6/24/2025 at 2:33 p.m., with Licensed Vocational Nurse (LVN) 2, LVN 2 stated one
of her job duties is to oversee the CNA's. LVN 2 stated Resident 2 should have had his face shaven
yesterday when he requested for it to be done and not doing so could affect his dignity.
During an interview on 6/26/2025 at 8:26 p.m., with the Director of Nursing (DON), the DON stated the
CNA's are responsible for shaving the residents. The DON stated Resident 2 not being shaved upon his
request could affect his dignity and make him feel like he is not being prioritized.

Provide safe and appropriate respiratory care for a resident when needed.
Level of Harm - Minimal harm
or potential for actual harm
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
observation, interview and record review, the facility failed to ensure one of six sampled residents (Resident
48) received respiratory care (specialized healthcare field that focuses on the treatment , management and
prevention of respiratory disorders) consistent with professional standards of care by failing to:
Residents Affected - Few
1.Ensure Resident 48 's nasal cannula (medical device used to deliver supplemental oxygen to a person's
nose) was not left on the floor and oxygen concentrator ( medical device that provides a concentrated
source of oxygen) were turned off when not in use.
These failures had the potential to put Resident 48 for respiratory infection (an infection that affects
respiratory tract which includes the nose, throat, and lungs caused by viruses or bacteria).
Findings:
During a review of Resident 48's admission Record, the admission Record indicated Resident 48 was
initially admitted to the facility on [DATE] and was readmitted on [DATE] with diagnoses including
dependence on supplemental oxygen (refers the need for supplemental oxygen due respiratory or medical
conditions), personal history of Covid-19 ( previously diagnosed with Covid-19 [highly contagious
respiratory disease]) , and hemiplegia ( weakness or paralysis) affecting left nondominant side.
During a review of Resident 48's Minimum Data Set (MDS- resident assessment tool) dated 4/1/2025, the
MDS indicated Resident 48 had severely impaired cognitive skills( as significant decline in a person's ability
to think, learn, remember, concentrate, make decisions, and solve problems) and was dependent ( helper
does all the effort and resident does none of the effort to complete the activity) on the staff with eating, bed
mobility, oral hygiene, toileting hygiene, bathing, dressing and personal hygiene.
During a review of Resident 48's Order Summary Report , the Order Summary Report dated 6/21/2024
indicated a physician order of continuous oxygen at 2 to 4 liters per minute ( flow rate of oxygen delivered to
a patient) via nasal cannula to keep oxygen saturation( a measurement of how much oxygen is carried by
red blood cells in the blood expressed as a percentage) at or above 90 percent (%- out of 100) every shift
for shortness of breath (sob- uncomfortable feeling that you are running out of breath).
During a review of Resident 48's Care Plan, titled Resident had oxygen therapy related to shortness of
breath initiated on 6/24/2025, the Care Plan goal indicated Resident 48 will have no signs and symptoms of
poor oxygen absorption( body is not getting enough oxygen from the air you breathe to function properly)

Residents Affected - Many
Have a registered nurse on duty 8 hours a day; and select a registered nurse to be the director of nurses on
a full time basis.
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
interview and record review the facility failed to ensure a Registered nurse (RN) worked eight consecutive
hours a day seven days a week on 2/1/25, 2/2/25, 2/8/25, 2/9/25, 2/15/25, 2/23/25, 3/9/25 and 3/23/25.
This failure had the potential to affect the residents' quality of care and not be able to provide advanced
care activities such as resident assessments, developing and evaluating care plans, and consulting with
physicians.
Findings:
During a concurrent interview and record review on 6/25/25 at 4:08 p.m. with the Director of Staff
Development (DSD). The facility's Census and Direct Care Service Hours Per Patient Day (DHPPD) dated
1/1/2025 through 6/24/25 were reviewed. The DHPPD indicated on 2/1/25, 2/2/25, 2/8/25, 2/9/25, 2/15/25,
2/23/25, 3/9/25 and 3/23/25 there was no RN coverage on those days. The DSD stated there needs to be
an RN in case of an emergency because the RN has more knowledge in assessing the residents.
During a concurrent interview and record review on 6/25/25 at 4:08 p.m. with the Administrator (ADM). The
DHPPD dated 1/1/2025 through 6/24/25 was reviewed. The DHPPD indicated on 2/1/25, 2/2/25, 2/8/25,
2/9/25, 2/15/25, 2/23/25, 3/9/25 and 3/23/25 there was no RN coverage on those days. The ADM stated in
those days they did not have an RN working. The ADM stated the RN has a different skill set of knowledge
and that not having an RN could potentially affect the resident's quality of care.
During a review of the Facility assessment dated [DATE], the Facility Assessment indicated, based on the
facility's resident population and their needs for care and support, the following are the facility's general
approaches to staffing to ensure that the facility has sufficient staff members with appropriate
competencies and skill sets to meet the needs of the residents, as identified through resident assessments
and care plans at any given time. The general staffing plan for licensed nurses providing direct care was to
have one RN from 7am to 7pm and one RN from 7pm to 7am. The facility determines and reviews
individual staff member assignments for coordination and continuity of care for the residents within and
across the staff assignment and reviews acuity and care needs of the residents.

Procure food from sources approved or considered satisfactory and store, prepare, distribute and serve
food in accordance with professional standards.
Based on observation, interview and record review, the facility failed to ensure safe and sanitary food
storage and preparation practices when the facility failed to:
Residents Affected - Some
1.Ensure an open bag of frozen salisbury steak was stored in a sealed plastic bag in the freezer.
2.Ensure an open box of hot rice cereal was dated, labeled and stored in a sealed bag or container.
These failures had the potential to result in harmful bacteria growth and cross contamination (transfer of
harmful bacteria from one place to another) that could lead to food borne illness (illness caused by food
contaminated with bacteria, viruses, parasites, or toxins ).
Findings:
During an initial kitchen observation and interview on 6/23/2025, at 8:11 a.m. with Dietary Manager
(DM),observed an open plastic bag of frozen salisbury steaks in an open carton box was stored in the
freezer. Observed DM took another plastic bag , placed the frozen salisbury steak in the plastic bag and
returned the frozen steaks in the freezer. Observed an open box of rice hot cereal sitting on the kitchen
countertop without an open date label. Observed DM she threw the rice cereal box in the garbage as the
kitchen staff did not put the rice cereal in a bag to maintain the freshness of the food, and it was not labeled
with an open date.
During an interview on 6/25/2025, at 8:50 a.m. with [NAME] (CK1), CK 1 stated an open bag of frozen
salisbury steak should be stored in a tight sealed bag to ensure freshness of the food being served to the
residents. CK 1 stated an open box of rice hot cereal should have been stored in a bag and labeled with an
open date so the staff would know when it will be expired. CK 1 stated not labeling and dating open food
items could place residents at risk for food poisoning.
During an interview on 6/25/2025, at 9;14 a.m. with DM, DM stated an open bag of frozen salisbury steaks
not properly stored in a sealed bag could create freezer burns affecting the quality of food. DM stated an
open box of hot rice cereal should be labeled with an open date and stored in a sealed plastic bag to
ensure freshness so the kitchen staff will know when the food items will expire. DM stated not labeling and
dating open food items can affect the quality of food and if served it can put residents at risk for food-borne
illnesses.
During an interview on 6/26/2025 at 1:10 p.m. with Registered Dietician (RD), RD stated it was important to
store open bag of frozen steaks in a bag because it will prevent freezer burns. RD stated food items with
freezer burns will diminish the quality of food and open frozen foods in the freezer could get contaminated
in the freezer which could place residents at risk for food borne illnesses. RD stated labeling open food
items with open date and storing them in a sealed bag will ensure the freshness of food and can minimize
the risk of residents getting sick because staff will know when the food will expire.
During a review of facility's policy and procedure (P&P) titled, Food Storage and Handling, dated 6/4/2024,
the P&P indicated food items will be stored properly and prepared in accordance with sanitary practices
and prevention of food-borne illnesses. The P&P indicated all food items will be correctly labeled, dated and
foods to be frozen should be stored in an airtight container.

Set up an ongoing quality assessment and assurance group to review quality deficiencies and develop
corrective plans of action.
Based on interview and record review, the facility's Quality Assessment and Assurance Committee ([QAA]
develop and implement appropriate plans of action to correct identified quality deficiencies) and the Quality
Assurance Performance Improvement ([QAPI] a group who takes a systemic, interdisciplinary,
comprehensive, and data driven approach to maintaining and improving safety and quality in nursing
homes while involving residents and families) failed to ensure effective oversight of the facility and
implementation of the facility's plan of correction (POC) of the deficient practices identified during the
previous recertification survey.
This failure resulted in the facility having repeat deficiencies in the areas of activities of daily living care
provided for dependent residents, formulating advance directives (written statement of a person's wishes
regarding medical treatment made to ensure those wishes are carried out should the person be unable to
communicate), infection prevention, Quality Assurance and Performance Improvement, food storage, free
of medication error rates of five percent or more, and free from psychotropic (substances that change how
the brain works, affecting the person's mood, thoughts, feelings, and behavior) medication use.
Findings:
During a review of the facility's Statement of Deficiencies for the 2024 Recertification survey indicated the
following repeat deficiencies in advance directives, activities of daily living (ADLs), infection prevention,
Quality assurance and performance improvements, pharmacy services, psychotropic medication use, and
food storage.
During an interview on 6/26/2025 at 2:57 p.m., with the Administrator (ADM), the ADM stated the QAPI
committee is currently working on falls and behavior management. The ADM stated the QAPI committee
could improve address the repeat deficiencies by providing additional training, education, and in-services to
the staff, increase rounding on the residents, and ensure the social services director (SSD) has a better
understanding of the advance directive process.
During a review of the facility's policy and procedure (P&P) titled, Quality Assurance and Performance
Improvement (QAPI) Program, dated 2022, the P&P indicated, the facility implements and maintains an
ongoing, facility-wide QAPI Program designed to monitor and evaluate the quality of resident care, pursue
methods to improve quality of care, and resolve identified issues. The purpose is to implement a process
that identifies opportunities for improvement and leads to optimal achievement in clinical and operational
outcomes, and overall quality of care. To provide a structure and process to correct identified opportunities
for improvement and establish benchmarks to measure outcomes.
