Honor the resident's right to a safe, clean, comfortable and homelike environment, including but not limited
to receiving treatment and supports for daily living safely.
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
observation, interview, and record review, the facility failed to ensure residents were provided with a safe,
clean, comfortable, and homelike environment for one of five sampled residents (Resident 1) by failing to
provide a clean shower room.This deficient practice violated the resident's right to a comfortable, homelike
environment and had the potential to negatively impact their quality of life.Findings:During a review of
Resident 1's admission Record, the admission Record indicated that the facility originally admitted the
resident on 12/10/2024 and readmitted the resident on 2/1/2025 with diagnoses including osteoarthritis (a
progressive disorder of the joints, caused by a gradual loss of cartilage) of left hip and immunodeficiency (a
condition where the immune system is weakened, making the body unable to fight off infections and
diseases effectively, leading to frequent or severe illnesses from germs that a healthy immune system
would normally handle).During a review of Resident 1's Minimum Data Set (MDS - a resident assessment
tool) dated 12/5/2025, the MDS indicated that Resident 1's cognition (the mental action or process of
acquiring knowledge and understanding through thought, experience, and senses) was intact. The MDS
indicated that Resident 1 required setup or clean-up staff assistance with shower/bathe self and
supervision or touching staff assistance with tub/shower transfer. During an interview on 12/10/2025 at 1:15
p.m., with Resident 1 in Resident 1's room, Resident 1 stated that the facility had a total of four shower
booths in two shower rooms. Resident 1 stated the shower rooms were not clean all of the time and
Resident 1 could smell mold (a type of fungus that grows as fuzzy spots on damp organic stuff [like food,
wood, or drywall] often smelling musty and potentially causing allergies or breathing problems if sensitive)
while taking a shower and made her uncomfortable. Resident 1 stated when Resident 1 took a shower on
the morning of 12/10/2025, Resident 1 observed black spots on the corners of the floors where the walls
met and around the soap rest that was mounted in shower booth 1.During a concurrent observation and
interview on 12/10/2025 at 2:28 p.m., with Maintenance Assistant 1 (MA 1) and MA 2 in shower room
[ROOM NUMBER], MA 1 and MA 2 observed the following black color discolorations in shower booth 1 of

left corner edge of the tiled wall where the drywall met next to the stainless-steel grab bar.Both MA 1 and
MA 2 checked the mentioned areas above and stated that they were discolored but the facility needed to
clean them.During a concurrent observation and interview on 12/10/2024 at 3:13 p.m., with the
Maintenance Supervisor (MS), the Administrator (ADM), and the Director of Nursing (DON) in shower room
[ROOM NUMBER], observed black discolorations in shower booth 1 around the soap rest that is mounted
