possessions.
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
observation, interview, and record review, the facility failed to ensure four of four sampled residents
(Resident 5, Resident 15, Resident 56, Resident 76) were treated with respect and dignity when:
1.Resident 15's foley catheter bag (a collection bag that attaches to a foley catheter, a type of indwelling
catheter [a catheter left in place for a period of time], to collect urine drained from the bladder) had urine
visible from the hallway and was not covered with a foley catheter decency bag.
This failure resulted in violating Resident 15's right to privacy.
2.Resident 5, Resident 56, and Resident 76 were lined up in the hallway outside of the dining hall and not
allowed to enter and eat until other residents were done eating.
This failure resulted in Resident 5, Resident 56 and Resident 76 being denied entry to the dining room and
having to wait and watch other residents eat before they could be seated.

diagnosis which included Parkinson's disease (chronic, progressive neurological disorder that affects
movement, balance, and other bodily functions), muscle weakness and urinary incontinence (involuntary

During a review of Resident 15's Minimum Data Set (MDS- a resident assessment tool) assessment, dated
1/1/25, the MDS assessment indicated Resident 15's Brief Interview for Mental Status (BIMS- an
assessment tool used by facilities to screen and identify memory, orientation, and judgement status of the
resident) assessment score was 11 out of 15 which indicated Resident 15 had moderate cognitive deficit (a
decline in thinking abilities, like memory, reasoning, and problem-solving).
During a concurrent observation and interview on 3/18/25 at 11:05 a.m. with Resident 15 in Resident 15's
room, Resident 15's room door was open and next to the dining hall. Resident 15 was observed lying in

During a review of Resident 34's Minimum Data Set (MDS-a functional and cognitive abilities assessment)
assessment, dated 12/12/2024, indicated the Brief Interview for Mental Status (BIMS) score was 5 out of
15 (a BIMS score of 13-15 indicates cognitively intact (having clear thinking, learning, and memory, which
allows someone to perform daily tasks. ), 8-12 indicates moderately impaired and 0-7 indicates severe
impairment), which indicated Resident 76 had severe impairment.
Residents Affected - Few
During a record review of the Resident 76's [Facility Name] Order Audit Report (OAR) dated 3/21/2025, the
OAR indicated, Order date: 02/22/2025 Order Summary: Treatment-outer left food DTI-Paint with [brand

During a review of the facility's policy and procedure (P&P) titled, Comprehensive Care Plan dated 1/21,
the P&P indicated, Each resident will have a comprehensive care plan that includes measurable objective
and time frame to meet his/her medical nursing, mental and psychological needs. Care plan shall
incorporate goals and objective which lead to the resident's highest obtainable level of independence and
shall be used in developing daily care needs and routines.
Based on observation, interview and record review, the facility failed to develop and implement a
comprehensive person-centered care plan (a detailed approach to care customized to an individual
resident's needs) for 2 of 24 sampled residents (Resident 1 and Resident 76) when:
1.The facility did not implement a person-centered care plan for Resident 1, who needed feeding
assistance and verbal prompting throughout eating his meal because of blindness.
This failure of implementing an individualized care plan for Resident 1 had the potential to place Resident
1's safety at risk and his specific needs not being met.
2.Resident 76 did not have a care plan for a wound treatment for his deep tissue injury (DTI- a serious type
of pressure injury, involves damage to underlying soft tissues, potentially leading to a purple or maroon
discoloration of the skin) to the outer left foot.
This failure placed Resident 76 at risk for complications from not having care needs planned by licensed
nurses to determine if nursing intervention needed to be added, changed, or completed.
Findings:
1. During a review of Resident 1's admission Record (a summary of important information regarding a
patient which include patient identification, past medical history, insurance status, care providers, family
contact information and other pertinent information), dated 3/21/25, the Face Sheet indicated, Resident 1
was admitted to the facility on [DATE].
During a review of Resident 1's Minimum Data Set (MDS - a resident assessment tool used to identify
resident cognitive and physical function) assessment, dated 3/6/25, the MDS assessment indicated
Resident 1's Brief Interview for Mental Status (BIMS -assessment of cognitive status for memory and

During a review of Resident 1's Medical Diagnosis (MD), dated 3/21/25, the MD indicated Resident 1 was
diagnosed with legal blindness (severely limited vision), epilepsy (a brain disorder that causes recurring
seizures, which are sudden bursts of abnormal electrical activity in the brain that can lead to temporary
changes in behavior, sensation, or movement), major depressive disorder ( a mental health condition
characterized by persistent sadness, loss of interest in activities, and difficulty functioning in daily life) and
morbid (severe) obesity (too much body fat).
During a review of Resident 1's Social Services Assessment (SSA), dated 12/4/24, the SSA indicated,
.Ancillary needs [additional or supporting services and resources that help a patient function better or
achieve their goals] . Vision: specify: Legally blind, able to see little .
During a concurrent observation and interview on 3/18/25 at 12:10 p.m., with Resident 1, in the dining
room, staff members prompted Resident 1 to where each food item was on his plate and what type of food
was in his bowls at the beginning of his meal. The staff members were also serving food trays for other
residents so Resident 1 was left alone at times. Resident 1 was putting his spoon in his salad thinking it
was soup and putting his fingers into the bowls to be able to distinguish what food was where. Resident 1
stated he could not see what food was on his plate and needed staff members to tell him where food items
were, or else I'm just guessing while eating.
During a concurrent interview and record review on 3/20/25 at 2:42 p.m., with the Assistant Director of
Nursing (ADON), Resident 1's Care Plans were reviewed. The care plan indicated Resident 1 had a care
plan for insufficient vision due to being legally blind, but nothing in terms of feeding or monitoring Resident
1 for eating safety because of that blindness. The ADON stated she was responsible for resident care
plans, but all nursing staff could implement or modify a care plan. The ADON stated care plans are the
foundation of care for all residents. The ADON stated care plans need to be person-centered because all
residents have different needs and Resident 1's was not person-centered related to blindness and eating.
The ADON stated the facility policy and procedure (P&P) Comprehensive Care Plan was not followed.
During a concurrent interview and record review on 3/20/25 at 5:13 p.m., with Licensed Vocational Nurse
(LVN) 4, Resident 1's Electronic Medical Record (EMR), dated 3/20/25 was reviewed. The EMR indicated
Resident 1 did not have a care plan related too his blindness and eating safely. LVN 4 stated Resident 1
should have had a care plan in place that was dedicated to eating and his blindness. LVN 4 stated Resident
1 should require a staff member to be with him at all times and give him instruction while he eats. LVN 4
stated Resident 1 needs this for his safety, as he could burn himself touching his food with his fingers. LVN
4 stated Resident 1 was legally blind and unable to see. LVN 4 stated person-centered care plans are
important so residents are properly taken care of and Resident 1 was not.
During an interview on 3/21/25 at 2:20 p.m., with Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA) 8, CNA 8 stated she
knew Resident 1 well and he was blind. CNA 8 stated the facility told CNA's to get Resident 1 into the
dining room for every meal due to safety concerns when he is eating, but that was not in his care plan. CNA
8 stated she was never told to prompt him throughout his meal while eating, but that would be helpful for
him. CNA 8 stated a care plan for Resident 1's eating specifically would have been helpful for all staff to get
on the same page. CNA 8 stated because the care plan was not person-centered Resident 1 could have
been in danger of being burned and it makes his life harder.
During an interview on 3/22/25 at 9:52 a.m., with Registered Nurse (RN) 1, RN 1 stated she was the nurse
for Resident 1 this past week. RN 1 stated Resident 1 was handicapped in terms of vision. RN 1

at his bedside, any resident could have come in his room and took them without any staff knowing. RN 1
stated Resident 88 could have not taken the medication at all, or the medication dropped on the ground
and staff would never have known. RN 1 stated Resident 88 usually takes his medication as ordered, but
that day he didn't.
During an interview on 3/22/25 at 10:15 a.m., with the Director of Nursing (DON), the DON stated Resident
88 would need to qualify to be able to self-administer medications and he did not. The DON stated some
issues with the nurse leaving the medication for him to take were Resident 88 might not know the
importance of taking the medication on time and he might not take the medication and staff wouldn't know.
The DON stated this could have caused a medication error and it was a safety risk for Resident 88. The
DON stated a confused resident could have come by and took the medications without staff knowing as
well. The DON stated the self-administration medication was not completed for Resident 88 and the facility
policy and procedure (P&P) Medication Administration was not followed.
During a review of the facility's Self-Administration Assessment (SAA), not dated, the SAA indicated,
.Instructions: before performing this assessment, verify that there is a physician order in the residence chart
for self-administration of the specific medication under consideration and that the resident has signed the
appropriate documents stating the desire to self-administer his own medication . Assessment Criteria: . Can
correctly state name of medication and what it is used for .
During a review of the facility's P&P titled, Medication Administration, dated January 2025, the P&P
indicated, .Medications are administered as prescribed in accordance with . good nursing principles and
practices and only by persons legally authorized to do so . Medication Administration: . medications are
administered in accordance with written orders of the prescriber . residents are allowed to self-administer
medications when specifically authorized by the prescriber, the nursing care centers interdisciplinary team
[IDT] and in accordance with procedures for self-administration of medications and state regulations . the
resident is always observed after administration to ensure that the dose was completely ingested .
Based on observation, interview and record review, the facility failed to meet professional standards of
practice for four of 18 sampled residents (Resident 4, Resident 23, Resident 33, and Resident 88) and
follow the policy and procedure when:
1. Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA) 5 and CNA 6 did not file and a reported allegation of abuse to [NAME]
President or Long Term Care Designee and notify the appropriate agencies for Resident 23.
This failure resulted in Resident 23's allegation to go uninvestigated and had the potential for Resident 23's
safety concerns to not be met.
2. Registered Nurse (RN) 1 did not follow the physician's order (PO-a written instruction from a healthcare
provider, such as a doctor, that outlines specific medical treatments, tests, or procedures for a residents) for
Resident 33 when her systolic blood pressure (SBP- the pressure in your arteries when your heart beats
and pumps blood throughout your body, measured in millimeters of mercury [mmHg]) was above 160
mmHg (less than 120 mmHg is recommend) and RN 1 did not accurately document Resident 33's blood
pressure in the clinical chart.
This failure lead to Resident 33 not received prescribed medication for her elevated blood press and
Resident 33's physician was not be notified of Resident 33 blood pressure.

Employ sufficient staff with the appropriate competencies and skills sets to carry out the functions of the
food and nutrition service, including a qualified dietician.
Based on interview, and record review, the facility failed to ensure dietetic staff had the appropriate skill sets
to carry out the functions of food and nutrition services when:
Residents Affected - Many
1. The full-time Dietary Manger (DM) did not have the appropriate qualifications to meet the state
requirements of the Health and Safety Code 1265.4 when Registered Dietitian (RD) 2 was only working
onsite at the facility one day per week: and
2. RD 1 did not follow current standards of practice for nutrition-focused physical exams when she was a
full-time consultant who worked remotely in another state and completed nutrition assessments for the
facility.
These failures resulted in the lack of a full-time qualified DM and RD which led to dietetic staff not having
adequate supervision, training, and knowledge to carry out food and nutrition services in a safe and
sanitary manner which placed 91 out of 91 resident's dining at the facility at risk for food borne illness
(illness caused by food contaminated with bacteria, viruses, parasites, or toxins) and/or decreased nutrient
intake, both of which had the potential to result in death and/or nutritional related medical complications.
The failure of the remote RD not following current standards of practice had the potential to result in
resident's not being accurately assessed with a nutrition diagnosis of malnutrition or at risk for malnutrition.
Early nutrition intervention of a patient with malnutrition has the potential to decrease length of stay, falls,
pressure ulcers, infections, complications, re-admissions and overall health care costs.
Findings:
1. During a review of the State Statue (law), titled Health, and Safety Code - HSC § 1265.4: A licensed
health facility shall employ a full-time, part-time, or consulting dietitian. A health facility that employs a
registered dietitian less than full time, shall also employ a full-time dietetic services supervisor who meets
the requirements of subdivision (b) to supervise dietetic service operations. Subdivision (b) includes seven
pathways to be qualified. One of the pathways: (4) Is a graduate of a dietetic services training program
approved by the Dietary Managers Association and is a certified dietary manager credentialed by the
Certifying Board of the Dietary Managers Association, maintains this certification, and has received at least
six hours of in-service training on the specific California dietary service requirements contained in Title 22
of the California Code of Regulations prior to assuming full-time duties as a dietetic services supervisor at
the health facility.
During a review of the State requirements titled, Title 22 California Code of Regulations (CCR) section
§72333 Dietetic Service -General, indicated Dietetic service means a service organized, staffed and
equipped to assure that food service to patients is safe, appetizing and provides for their nutritional needs.
During an interview on 3/18/25 at 9:26 a.m. with the DM during the initial kitchen tour, the DM introduced
herself as the Dietary Manager, also known as the kitchen supervisor. The DM stated she graduated on
1/24/25 from The University of North Dakota with her Nutrition and Foodservice Professional Training
Program certification. The DM stated she had not registered or taken the CDM credentialing exam yet. The
DM stated she was not qualified to be kitchen supervisor independently until she had her CDM credential.
The DM stated she was working under RD 2 until she obtained her CDM credential.

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 maintain a clean and sanitary environment for
four of 24 sampled residents (Residents 62, 65, 80 and 88) when:
Residents Affected - Some
1.Resident 88 had a urinal (a container, often a bottle, used for collecting urine, typically for someone who
is unable to get out of bed to use a regular toilet), filled with urine, on his bedside table (serve as a surface
for food trays and can hold personal items such as phones, laptops, or books) next to drinking cups, protein
shakes and medication in a medicine cup.
This failure placed Resident 88 at risk for cross-contamination (the unintentional transfer of harmful
substances from one person, object, or place to another) which could result in infections and illness.
2.Licensed Vocational Nurse (LVN) 2 did not clean and disinfect the glucometer machine (a portable device
used to measure blood sugar) after using for Residents 62 and 80.
This failure had the potential risk in the development and transmission of communicable diseases and
infections for Residents 62 and 80.
3. Nursing staff did not wear gloves or a gown during direct patient care to Resident 65 while Resident 65
was on on Enhanced Barrier Precaution (EBP-infection control interventions, primarily used in long-term
care facilities, that involve targeted gown and glove use during high-contact resident care activities to
reduce the transmission of multidrug-resistant organisms (MDROs).
This failure resulted in the risk for cross contamination (the process by which bacteria or other
microorganisms are unintentionally transferred from one substance or object to another, with harmful effect)
and the spread of infection.
Findings:
1. During a review of Resident 88's Face Sheet (a summary of important information regarding a patient
which include patient identification, past medical history, insurance status, care providers, family contact
information and other pertinent information), dated 3/21/25, the Face Sheet indicated, Resident 88 was
admitted to the facility on [DATE].
During a review of Resident 88's Minimum Data Set (MDS - a resident assessment tool used to identify
resident cognitive and physical function) assessment, dated 1/28/25, the MDS assessment indicated
Resident 88's Brief Interview for Mental Status (BIMS -assessment of cognitive status for memory and
judgment) assessment score was 15 out of 15 (a score of 13-15 indicates cognitively intact (a person is
able to think clearly, remember things well, and make sound decisions, essentially having normal brain
function with no significant problems with thinking, learning, or reasoning abilities), 08-12 indicates
moderately impaired, and 00-07 indicates severe impairment). The BIMS assessment indicated Resident
88 was cognitively intact.
During a review of Resident 88's Medical Diagnosis (MD), dated 3/21/25, the MD indicated Resident 88
was diagnosed with sepsis (a life-threatening condition that occurs when the body's immune system
overreacts to an infection), cellulitis (a bacterial infection of the skin and the tissues just

anxiety (a feeling of worry, nervousness, or fear, often about things that might happen, and it can involve
physical symptoms like a racing heart or sweating).
During an observation on 3/18/25 at 1:05 p.m., in Resident 88's room, there was a urinal filled with urine
sitting on his bedside table next to drinking cups, protein shakes and medication in a medicine cup.
Resident 88 stated the urine had been there awhile.
During an interview on 3/20/25 at 2:42 p.m., with the Assistant Director of Nursing (ADON), the ADON
stated there should not have been urine in a urinal on Resident 88's bedside table. The ADON stated his
urinal should have never been next too food or shakes. The ADON stated cross-contamination of bacteria
(tiny organisms, or living things, that can cause disease) could have occurred. The ADON stated the facility
policy and procedure (P&P) Standard Precautions was not followed by staff.
During an interview on 3/21/25 at 9:55 a.m., with the Infection Preventionist (IP), the IP stated Resident
88's urinal should not have been on the bedside table. The IP stated Resident 88 eats off of his bedside
table and a urinal there would be a big no-no. The IP stated Resident 88 could have bacteria in his urine
that could make it contagious (bacteria that can be transmitted or passed on from one person to another).
The IP stated cross-contamination could have occurred and the urinal could splash urine onto his drinking
cups, protein drinks, or medication and make him sick. The IP stated the facility P&P Standard Precautions
was not followed by staff.
During an interview on 3/21/25 at 2:20 p.m., with Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA) 8, CNA 8 stated urinals
should be hung off the resident bed away from food and drinks. CNA 8 stated germs (tiny organisms, or
living things, that can cause disease or sickness) could get on a person's food with the urinal so close to it
and could have caused an infection for Resident 88.
During an interview on 3/22/25 at 9:38 a.m., with Registered Nurse (RN) 1, RN 1 stated she was the nurse
for Resident 88 when the urinal was observed on the bedside table filled with urine. RN 1 stated that urinal
should never have been on that table. RN 1 stated she, or a CNA, should have emptied the urinal and
moved it off of the bedside table. RN 1 stated this was a major infection risk because urine should never be
next to food and cups that the resident was using.
During an interview on 3/22/25 at 10:15 a.m., with the Director of Nursing (DON), the DON stated the urine
on the bedside table was an infection issue. The DON stated urine mixed with food would equate to a low
quality of life for Resident 88. The DON stated the urine could have spilled on the floor and caused a safety
hazard. The DON stated this issue put Resident 88 at risk for infection and he even could have drank the
urine by accident. The DON stated the facility staff did not follow the P&P Standard Precautions.
During a review of the facility's P&P titled Standard Precautions, dated May 2024, the P&P indicated, .
