**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
interview and record review, the facility failed to ensure one of eighteen sampled residents (Resident60),
representatives were notified of changes in condition on 11/14/2025.This failure resulted in the resident's
representative not being notified of the new skin breakdown and being unable to participate in decisions
regarding necessary treatment and monitoring. Findings: During a record review of Resident 60's
admission record indicated Resident 60 was admitted on [DATE] with a diagnoses of chronic respiratory
failure (condition in which your blood does not get enough oxygen or has too much carbon dioxide), basal
cell carcinoma of the skin (a type of skin cancer?that most often develops on areas of skin exposed to the
sun), chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD-a chronic lung disease causing difficulty in breathing),
and Alzheimer's disease (a disease characterized by a progressive decline in mental abilities). During a
record review of Resident 60's Minimum Data set [(MDS)] resident assessment tool), dated 11/07/25
indicated that Resident's cognitive was impaired. The MDS indicated that Resident 60's is dependent

condition on 11/14/2025 at 19:43, it indicated patient has a scratch on left back of the neck. TX1 stated that
Resident 60's Representative was not notified of the new skin scratch. TX1 stated that she forgot to contact
Resident60's representative because she was not assigned to Resident 60 and was assisting the nursing
staff. During concurrent interview and record review on 12/4/2025 at 11:14 a.m. with Director of Nursing
(DON) on 12/04/2025 at 11:14 a.m., the DON stated that License staff are expected to notify the resident's
physician and responsible representative of all changes in condition, including new skin issues. The DON
stated that the notification was not completed for Resident 60's COC initiated on 11/14/2025. DON stated
that it is important to notify the residents responsible representative of any changes because
representatives are responsible for participating in care decisions and have the right to know what is going
on with their loved ones. A review of the facility's policy and procedure titled. Change of Condition,

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 ensure the Minimum Data Set (MDS- standardized data
collection tool used to assess cognitive brain's ability to think, read, learn, remember, reason, express
thoughts, and make decisions] and functional status, and care needs) section I -Active Diagnosis (a
physician-documented illness or condition that is currently impacting a patient's health status, treatment, or
plan of care) was accurately documented for one of four sampled residents (Resident 2). By failing to
document Resident 2's diagnosis of anxiety (a feeling of worry or fear in response to stress that becomes
excessive, persistent, and interferes with daily life) in the MDS dated [DATE]. This failure had the potential
for Resident 2 not to receive a care plan for behavior monitoring.Findings: During a review of Resident 2's
admission Record, the admission record indicated the facility admitted the resident on 1/8/2025 with a
diagnosis of major depressive disorder (a mood disorder that causes a persistent feeling of sadness and
loss of interest), dementia (a progressive state of decline in mental abilities), and anxiety. During a review of
Resident 2's MDS dated [DATE], the MDS indicated the resident was oriented to time but was challenged
with recall. The MDS indicated the diagnosis anxiety was not triggered (documented) under section I
-Active Diagnosis. During a concurrent interview and record review on 12/4/2025 at 8:39 AM with the
Minimum Data Set Nurse (MDSN) 1, MDSN 1 reviewed Resident 2's MDS dated [DATE], the Medical
Diagnoses on the admission Record, and the Physician's Order dated 11/24/2025. MDSN 1 reviewed
Resident 2's medical diagnosis and MDS 1 confirmed the resident was diagnosed with anxiety. MDSN 1
reviewed Resident 2's Physician's Order dated 11/24/2025 and confirmed the resident was prescribed
Ativan (short term management of anxiety symptoms) for anxiety. MDSN 1 reviewed Resident 2's MDS
dated [DATE] and confirmed the resident had not been triggered for anxiety under Section I - Medical
Diagnosis. The MDS 1 stated Resident 2 should have been triggered for anxiety because the resident was
prescribed an antianxiety medication. The MDS 1 stated Resident 2 would be at risk for misdiagnosis.
During an interview on 12/4/2025 at 9:24 AM with the Director of Nursing (DON), the DON stated all
medications were required to have a diagnosis (to indicate why the medication was prescribed). The DON
stated the MDS should have been triggered first, then a seven day look back should be seen. The DON
stated Resident 2 would be at risk for not having a care plan (a plan of care that summarizes a resident's
health conditions, specific care needs, and current treatments) to monitor for side effects of anxiety
medications and would be at risk for a lack of behavior monitoring. During a review of the facility's policy
and procedures (P&P) titled Psychotherapeutic Medications in the Chalet, dated 3/26/2025, the P&P
indicated psychotherapeutic medications included but were not limited to antipsychotic, antidepressants,
antianxiety and mood stabilizing medications. The policy indicated psychotherapeutic medications were
used only when indicated by assessment and medical necessity. The P&P indicated any order for
psychotherapeutic medication had to include the name of drug and dosage, frequency and indication of
use. During a review of the facility's P&P titled Coding Procedure, Sub Acute, dated 1/24/2024, the P&P
indicated the facility would use information while the resident (unspecified) was in house to determine the
diagnoses for the MDS and to be in compliance with regulatory agencies for timely completion of the
medical record.

Develop and implement a complete care plan that meets all the resident's needs, with timetables and
actions that can be measured.
Based on observation, interview and record review, the facility failed to ensure care planning for two of five
sample residents as follows:Resident 20's care plan for right hand mitten was updated. Care plan was not
initiated prior to implementation of Resident 80's side rails use.These failures had the potential for delayed
provision of appropriate care and monitoring. Findings: a. During a review of Resident 20‘s admission
Record, the admission Record indicated the facility initially admitted Resident 20 on 7/5/2023, and
readmitted the resident on 01/17/2024, with the diagnosis that included chronic respiratory failure,
dependence on respirator (ventilator - a medical device to help support or replace breathing), and
hemiplegia and hemiparesis (weakness and paralysis on one side of the body) following nontraumatic
intracerebral hemorrhage (bleeding within the brain). During a review of the Minimum Data Set (MDS - a
resident assessment) dated 10/10/2025, the MDS indicated Resident 20's cognitive (mental action or
process of acquiring knowledge and understanding) skills for daily decisions were severely impaired. The
MDS indicated Patient 20 was dependent on staff for all activities of daily living (ADL - routine
tasks/activities such as bathing, dressing, and toileting) a person performs daily to care for themselves).
During an observation on 12/1/2025, at 11:18 a.m., Resident 20 was observed lying in bed with right hand
mitten on. During an interview on 12/3/2025 at 11:00 a.m. with Director of Nursing (DON), DON stated care
plan is created during admission and reviewed quarterly, annually and when there is a change of condition.
DON stated for restraints, the care plan is updated every time there is a new order. DON stated a mitten is
a restraint and care plan would need to be updated for resident with mitten on. During a concurrent
interview and record review on 12/3/2025 at 11:05 a.m. with Minimum Data Set Nurse (MDS) 2 and DON of
Resident 20's Care Plan dated 12/3/2025, the care plan indicated the goals and interventions for physical
restraints - right hand mitten was last revised 10/10/2025 by MDS 2. The DON and MDS 2 stated the care
plan were not updated. The DON stated the care plan should have indicated a review every seven days for
the use of mitten to match the doctor's orders. The DON stated it is important that the care plan is updated
for it to be current for nurses to know the residents' risks, problems and interventions for the residents.
During a review of facility's P&P titled, Interdisciplinary Care Plan dated 1/24/2024, the P&P indicated, To
ensure that all resident's care needs are identified though continuous assessments and those needs are
care planned with corresponding measurable objectives and adequate interventions. All residents will have
a comprehensive care plan to meet their individual needs that is prepared by an interdisciplinary team (IDT)
after admission and periodically reviewed and revised after subsequent assessments or change of
condition. b. During a review of Resident 80‘s admission Record, the admission Record indicated the facility
admitted Resident 80 on 11/29/2025, with the diagnosis that included chronic respiratory failure,
dependence on respirator and pleural effusion (condition in which excess fluid builds around the lungs).
During a review of Resident 80's History and Physical (H&P-a medical examination that involves a doctor
taking a patient's medical history, performing a physical exam, and documenting their findings), dated
12/2/2025, the H&P indicated resident awake, no command following, no movements, no agitation, no
confusion, no anxiety. During a review of Resident 80's Admit/Readmit Screener (clinical tool used to
quickly assess resident at admission), dated 11/29/2025, the Admit/Readmit Screener indicated Resident
80's is alert, non-verbal and unresponsive. The Admit/Readmit Screener indicated Resident 80 as total
dependence with bed mobility, transfer, dressing, and personal hygiene. During an observation on
12/1/2025 at 11:25 a.m., 2:03 p.m., and on 12/2/2025 at 9:03 a.m., Resident 80 was observed awake, lying
in bed with 4 side rails up. During a concurrent observation and interview on 12/3/2025 at 2:38 p.m. with

Registered Nurse (RN) 1, Resident 35's Physician's order was reviewed. The physician order indicated
padded side rails up times two for seizure precautions dated 12/1/25. Resident 35 was observed to have
side rails up times four. RN 1 stated there was no physician's order noted for side rails to be up times four.
RN 1 stated that maybe the CNA put the side rails up times four. RN 1 stated the physician order for
padded siderails to be up times two was dated 12/1/2025 at 17:22. RN 1 stated Resident 35 always had a
physician's order for padded side rails to be up times two for seizure precautions.
During an interview on 12/3/2025 at 1:45 PM with the Minimum Data Set Nurse (MDSN), the MDSN stated
the facility had a standard order for side rails either for mobility positioning enabler (any device, equipment,
or technique that helps a person with physical impairments maintain a comfortable and safe body posture
or move around more easily) and for seizure diagnoses. The MDSN stated there is a specific coding for
side rails in the MDS for restraints but would not be triggered.
During an interview on 12/3/2025 at 1:47PM with the Director of Nursing (DON), the DON stated that they
will use side rails to be up times four, for restraints or per resident request. The DON stated that
assessments are done, then the MDS does an entry assessment and 7-14 days and initiate a baseline care
plan.
During an interview on 12/4/2025 at 8:54 AM with the Certified Nurse Assistant (CNA) 2, CNA 2 stated if
residents (unspecified) are moving around in the bed then the side rails would be up times four, and if the
charge nurse gave them instructions with a Physician's order. CNA 2 stated Resident 35 does not have side
rails up times four. CNA 2 stated Resident 35 does not move around in bed.
During an interview on 12/4/2025 at 8:59 AM with Registered Nurse (RN) 2, RN 2 stated that her superiors
reminded the staff (unspecified) to check for all residents (unspecified) physician orders for padded side
rails. RN 2 stated she put in the order for padded side rails up times two for Resident 35 and Resident 24.
RN 1 stated there weren't any orders for side rails up times two or four for Resident 24 or Resident 35. RN
2 stated the side rails up times four would be appropriate for those residents (unspecified) who are
confused and moving a lot and restless. RN 2 stated padded side rails up times two would be a standing
order and does not need a consent. RN 2 stated side rails need to be padded when up times four. RN 2
stated the risk to the residents without an order for side rails up times four would be the side rails would be
considered a restraint, which must have an order and monitoring for risk of falls and checking skin integrity.
During an interview on 12/4/2025 at 9:12 AM with the DON, The DON stated they decided to reach out to
the doctors (unspecified) and if appropriate get an order for side rails for those residents with seizure
diagnosis. The DON stated in discussions with the nurses (unspecified), if residents (unspecified) had
seizure diagnosis that it's appropriate to have side rails up times four. The DON stated the nurses
(unspecified) had confusion which is why the physicians order for side rails up times 2 was placed. The
DON stated the risk to Resident 24 and 35 without physician's order for side rails could be lack of guidance
regarding resident (unspecified) safety. The DON stated at the end of the day, it's the residents

Based on observation, interview and record review, the facility failed to provide oral care to one of five
residents (Resident 8) when Resident 8 was observed with teeth covered with white secretions, and sticky
matter. This failure had the potential to result in dental deterioration, aspiration, and
infection.Findings:During a review of Resident 8's admission Record (Face sheet) the admission Record
indicated the facility admitted Resident 8 on 1/17/2021 with diagnoses including chronic respiratory failure
(a condition where your lungs gradually stop doing their main job over time), chronic obstructive pulmonary
disease (COPD-a chronic lung disease causing difficulty in breathing), dependence on respirator/ventilator
a medical device to help support or replace breathing).During a review of Resident 8's History and Physical
(H&P), dated 9/7/2025 indicated that Resident 8 did not have the capacity to understand and make
decisions.During a review of Resident 8's Minimum Data Set (MDS- a resident assessment tool), dated
6/23/2025, indicated Resident 8's cognitive skills (the mental abilities your brain uses to think, process
information, remember things, pay attention, and solve problems) for daily decision making was severely
impaired. The MDS indicated Resident 8 had functional impairment in range of motion on both upper and
lower extremities, and was dependent on staff for oral hygiene. During a review of Resident 8's care plan for
self-care deficits, revised on 7/25/2025 indicated that Resident 8 required total assistance with her Activities
of Daily Living (ADLs). The care plan goal indicated Resident 8 would be clean, dry and well-groomed daily.
The care plan interventions included providing oral care daily and assisting as needed.During an
observation on 12/01/2025 10:12 a.m., Resident 8 was observed to have dry mouth, and caked with dry
white secretions.During an observation on 12/2/2025 at 10:30 a.m., in Resident 8's room, Resident 8
observed Resident 8 sitting supine at a 45-degree angle in bed. Resident 8 had a bubbling sound in her
throat, indicating the presence of secretions. There was dried and sticky white secretions between and
covering her entire bottom teeth and her mouth was dry and cracked. During an interview on 12/01/2025
10:12 a.m. with Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA) 3, in Resident 8's room, CNA 3 was observed inspecting
Resident 8's secretions and stated the licensed nurse does oral care. During an observation and interview
on 12/01/2025 10:20 a.m. with Licensed Vocational Nurse (LVN) 4, LVN 4 was observed inspecting
Resident 8's mouth. LVN stated if the resident has cracked lips or secretions, the resident could aspirate
and can cause deterioration of teeth and decay. During a review of the facility's P&P titled, ADL (Activities of
Daily Living Program), dated 2017, indicated the purposes of this procedure are to keep the resident's lips
and oral tissues moist, to cleanse and freshen the resident's mouth and to prevent oral infection. Activities
to be included in the ADL Program are dressing, bathing, grooming and hygiene, feeding, bowel and
bladder training and the use of adaptive equipment.

**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
observation, interview, and record review, the facility failed to ensure two of two sampled residents
(Resident60 and Resident 38) received proper care as follows: Failed to notify Resident 60's physician
order of a change in condition (COC) on 11/14/2025Failed to update the care plan to reflect the change of
condition on 11/14/2025 for Resident 60.Failed to monitor resident 60 every shift for 72 hours following the
change in condition beginning 11/14/2024 4.Failed to implement treatment consistent with physician orders
by not holding docusate sodium (a medication that helps soften the stool) oral liquid administration through
gastrostomy tube ([GT] a soft tube surgically placed into the stomach to provide nutrition and medications)
when loose stools are noted. These failures had the potential to contribute to deterioration of Resident 60's
and Resident 38 health, delay necessary medical intervention and increase the risk of complications
related to the change in condition. Findings:a. During a record ?review of Resident 60's admission record
indicated Resident 60 was admitted on [DATE] with a diagnoses of chronic respiratory failure (condition in
which your blood does not get enough oxygen or has too much carbon dioxide), basal cell carcinoma of the
skin (a type of skin cancer?that most often develops on areas of skin exposed to the sun), chronic
obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD-a chronic lung disease causing difficulty in breathing), and
Alzheimer's disease (a disease characterized by a progressive decline in mental abilities).? During a record

left back of the neck. TX1 acknowledged that the physician was not notified of the change in condition,
explaining that she was assisting the nursing staff at the time. TX1 further stated that no documentation
was entered into Resident 60's chart because the required steps had not been completed by any staff. She
admitted to forgetting to initiate a care plan for Resident 60, reiterating that she was just helping, and
confirmed that no care plan was completed. During concurrent interview and record review with the Director
of Nurses (DON) on 12/04/2025 11:14 a.m., the DON?stated that the facility's expectations for managing a
COC include the following: the physician must be notified of any changes in condition; any orders given
must be carried out; the resident's family must be informed, the care plan must be updated ; and residents
must be monitored every shift for any adverse reaction to treatment. The DON stated that Resident 60 was
not monitored for 72 following the change in condition due to lack of documentation done from staff. A

Provide appropriate care for residents who are continent or incontinent of bowel/bladder, appropriate
catheter care, and appropriate care to prevent urinary tract infections.
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
observation, interview, and record review, the facility failed to ensure a resident with indwelling catheter
received appropriate care and services to prevent urinary tract infections ([UTI] - an infection in the
bladder/urinary tract) for one of 17 sample residents (Resident 12), by failing to employ infection prevention
and control practices in managing catheter.This deficient practice had the potential for Resident 12's
existing UTI to worsen due to contamination from the urinary catheter's (a hollow tube inserted into the
bladder to drain or collect urine) dignity bag (a bag covering the catheter bag) contacting the floor.Findings:
During a review of Resident 12's admission Record, the admission Record indicated Resident 12 was
admitted to the facility on [DATE] with diagnoses including chronic respiratory failure, traumatic subdural
hemorrhage (when blood collects under the brain's outer covering after a head injury, causing pressure that
can damage the brain) , anoxic brain damage (when the brain gets?zero?oxygen, causing brain cells to
die), urinary tract infection ([UTI] an infection in the bladder/urinary tract) and had a GT in place. During a
review of Resident 12's Minimum Data Set ([MDS] a resident assessment tool) dated 11/06/2025, the MDS
indicated Resident 12 was comatose. The MDS indicated that Resident 12 dependent (helper does all of
the effort) with all activities of daily living (ADL). During an observation on 12/01/2025 at 11:02 AM in
Resident 12's room, it was noted Resident 12's urinary catheter dignity bag was in contact with the floor.
During a concurrent observation and interview on 12/3/2025 at 11:17 AM with Certified Nurse Assistant
(CNA) 4, CNA stated that dignity bags covering urinary catheters must be positioned below the level of the
resident but must not touch the floor. Observed Resident 12's dignity bag covering urinary catheter bag
touching the floor. CNA 4 stated the dignity bag was touching the floor. During concurrent observation and
interview on 12/3/2025 at 11:43 AM with Licensed Vocational Nurse (LVN) 9, LVN 9 confirmed dignity bag
covering urinary catheter bag was touching the floor. LVN 9 stated that the dignity bag should not touch the
floor, as this may contaminate the bag and increase the risk of UTI for the residents. During an interview on
12/3/2025 at 12:15 PM with Director of Nursing (DON), the DON stated that dignity bags covering urinary
catheter bags must remain off the floor and be positioned below the level of the resident. The DON
explained that when a dignity bag touches the floor, it can contaminate the urinary catheter, potentially
leading to a urinary tract infection (UTI) and causing harm to the resident.

**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
observation, interview, and record review, the facility failed to ensure a resident, who was receiving feeding
through a gastrostomy tube ([GT] a soft tube surgically placed into the stomach to provide nutrition and
medications), did not have a significant weight loss (a weight loss greater than five percent (%) in one
month, or greater than 7.5% in three months, and greater than 10% in six months) for one of 3 sampled
residents (Resident #12). The facility failed to ensure: 1. The licensed nurses initiated a change of condition
(COC- internal document) assessment and monitored Resident 12 for weekly weights, and signs and
symptoms of malnutrition (condition that develops when the body is deprived of vitamins, minerals and
other nutrients it needs to maintain healthy tissues and organ function), and dehydration (a dangerous loss
of body fluid caused by illness, sweating, or inadequate intake) to address the nutritional need of Resident
12 on 11/19/2025.2. The licensed nurses notified Resident 12's responsible party (RP) of Resident 12's
8.43 percent (%) significant weight loss identified on 11/19/2025 and 11.45% weight loss identified on
11/26/2025.3. The licensed nurses notified Resident 12's Primary Physician and Registered Dietician (RD)
of Resident 12's 11.45 % continued weight loss on 11/26/2025.4. The Interdisciplinary Team ([IDT] a team
of different health care professionals working together to develop care interventions for a resident),
including the RD met after Resident 12's significant weight loss was first identified on 11/19/2025, and then
on 11/26/2025, to develop and discuss interventions to prevent further weight loss.5. The IDT developed an
individualized care plan with measurable goals to address Resident 12's weight loss identified on
11/19/2025 and 11/26/2025. These deficient practices resulted in Resident 12 having a significant weight
loss of 14 pounds ([lbs.] a unit of weight measurement) in 19 days which was 8.43 % of Resident 12's body
weight on 11/19/2025, and 19 lbs. weight loss in 26 days on 11/26/2025 which was 11.45% of Resident

Multidisciplinary Care Conference indicated that Resident 12's desired body weight (DBW) was 124 - 136
lbs., and initial goal was 150 - 160 lbs. The Multidisciplinary Care Conference indicated weight loss history
suspected by sister, saying that Resident 12 used to appear heavier prior to hospitalization. The
Multidisciplinary Care Conference indicated Resident 12's bowel pattern was one to three times a day,
mostly loose. The Multidisciplinary Care Conference indicated nutritional goal for Resident 12 was good
tube feeding tolerance and adequate nutrition to be evidenced by tube feeding providing above 90%
estimated kilocalorie ([kcal] measurement the energy in food) and protein needs, mild weight loss towards
150 lbs. range or stable weight and good labs. There was no other Multidisciplinary Care Conference
assessment noted. During a review of Resident 12's untitled Care Plan initiated 11/21/2025, the Care Plan
indicated Resident 12 had a significant weight loss suspected related to diuretic (medication that helps to
remove extra fluid from the body) use and edema (swelling) upon admission. The untitled Care Plan
indicated Resident 12's weight would be maintained in the 150 lbs. range or within normal limits (WNL) for
DBW range, or as medically feasible. The Care Plan interventions include weighing resident weekly for four
weeks and monthly after or as per medical doctor (MD) order. During a concurrent interview and record
review on 12/03/2025 at 11:52 AM with Registered Nurse (RN) 3, RN 3 stated that resident weighs are
checked during admission, then weekly for four weeks. After, RD evaluates resident nutritional needs and
how often the residents need to be weighed. Licensed nurses record the weight results into PointClick Care
([PCC] electronic health record system used in the facility). Abnormal weights are reported to Medical
Doctor (MD) and RD. RN 3 stated she was unable to locate COC assessment when Resident 12's had the
significant weight loss on 11/19/2025 and on 11/26/2025. RN 3 was unable to locate RP notification of
Resident 12's COC. RN 3 stated that any change in resident's condition must be communicated with MD
and RP. RN 3 stated RDs document their progress notes in Paragon (electronic health record system used
in hospitals but not for Skilled Nursing). RN 3 stated that care plans must be documented as soon as there
is identified concern, to address resident needs as soon as possible to prevent further decline. During a
concurrent interview and record review on 12/03/2025 at 12:56 PM with RD, the RD stated that when the
residents experience significant weight loss, weight is rechecked for accuracy. Then RD evaluates the DBW
and assesses the need for nutritional adjustment. Resident 12's Weight Summary indicated the resident
had a significant weight loss of 14 lbs. in 19 days, which was 8.43 % of Resident 12's body weight on

weight. RD stated that she noted weight loss of 8.43% for Resident 12 on 11/21/25. Resident 12's weight
loss was addressed to one of the RNs in the facility along with recommendations. RD stated she could not
recall which RN she spoke to. RD stated that communication regarding resident's weights is done in
between her and the Director of Nursing (DON). RD stated that she is in contact with DON constantly and
exchanging with residents' status information almost every other day.?During a review of Resident 12's
Nutrition Daily assessment dated [DATE] with RD, the Nutrition Daily Assessment revealed that Resident 12
experienced significant weight loss suspected related to improving edema. The assessment revealed that
the resident would benefit from having weight and additional labs checked. RD informed RN of her
recommendations to check comprehensive metabolic panel ([CMP] - a blood test to assess body's
chemical balance) and weight with next planned weights. RD stated that she noted and addressed
Resident 12's weight loss of 11.45% documented on 11/26/2025, only on 12/1/2025 because she had been
on vacation during the week of 11/26/2025.RD stated that she initiated a weight loss care plan on 12/1/25,
however, she backdated the initiation date as 11/21/2025 since the first significant weight loss was
discovered on 11/21/2025. The dietitian was unsure how soon the care plan needed to

be initiated when a change in resident condition was noted.? During a review of Resident 12's Nurses
Progress Notes dated 11/21/2025, the Nurses Progress Notes revealed that Resident 12 was seen and
examined by RD with recommendations, physician notified. Physician ordered Complete Blood Count
([CBC] - a blood test to measure red blood cells, white blood cells and platelets) and CMP to be completed
on 11/23/2025, and check weight one time. During a concurrent interview and record review on 12/04/2025
at 11:10 AM with DON, the DON stated that expected/desired weight loss is not documented as COC,
however it should reflect on IDT meetings.?The DON stated if physician order includes check weight one
time, the order must be carried out and completed within 24 hours. Failure to properly complete physician
orders may result in insufficient care planning and potential negative outcomes for the resident.During a
review of Resident 12's Order Summary Report dated 11/22/2025 with the DON, the Order Summary
Report indicated that an order to check weight one time was placed on 11/22/25. Resident 12 was weighed
4 days later on 11/26/2025 and it indicated 147 lbs. The DON stated that weight check ordered on
11/22/2025 for Resident 12 was delayed, which lead to delayed care planning, compromising Resident 12's
health, causing further weight loss.During a subsequent interview on 12/4/2025 at 11:10 a.m. and record
review of Resident 12's all Order Summary Reports and Progress notes for 11/2025 with the DON, the
Order Summary Reports and Progress notes revealed no new orders regarding Resident 12's weight loss
of 11.45% on 11/26/2025.The DON stated that Resident 12's weight loss of 11.45% on 11/26/2025 had not
been reported to MD and IDT to addressed on time. The DON further added delay in assessment and
implementing intervention can lead to further decline in medical needs, unmet nutritional needs, and further
unintended weight loss. The DON stated that care plans must be completed within 24 hours of problem
identification. Care plan initiation date must be current and cannot be backdated. The DON stated that care
plan initiation for weight loss was delayed. She further stated that the care plan initiated on 12/1/2025 in not
complete. She further stated that the interventions must be more specific to address resident needs.?The
DON stated that Multidisciplinary Care Conference meetings are held twice a week. She confirmed that the
last Multidisciplinary Care Conference meeting for Resident #12 was documented on 11/4/2025. The DON
was unsure if there was another Multidisciplinary Care Conference meeting after 11/4/2025. The DON was
unable to locate documentation for Multidisciplinary Care Conference meetings after 11/4/25.The DON
stated that Resident #12's family/responsible party had not been notified regarding resident's significant
weight loss. The DON stated that failure to notify the resident's family of significant weight loss
compromises the family's right to be informed of COC. During a review of the facility's (P&P) titled
Standards of Nutrition Care for the Long Term Care/Sub Acute Unit reviewed in November 2023, indicated
The Registered Dietitian identifies nutritional risk factors and recommends nutritional interventions, based
on a resident's medical condition, nutritional needs and goals. The Dietitian monitors the resident's
response to nutritional interventions and adjusts goals and nutrition plans, as needed. 1. A Care Plan is
developed for each resident. The care plan is prepared by an interdisciplinary team that includes the
dietitian. The care plan includes measurable objectives and specific interventions recommended to maintain
adequate nutritional status, relative to condition and prognosis.2. The dietitian will document on the
appropriate care plans. The Care Plan will include information gathered from the nutrition assessment and
reflect the residents' nutritional status, goals, preferences as well as the planned nutrition intervention and
monitoring criteria.3. The residents' care plans will be updated quarterly, or more often as needed; e.g., as
conditions change, goals are met, or interventions are determined to be ineffective. If nutritional goals are
not achieved, different or additional approaches are considered and implemented as indicated. The dietitian
monitors and responds to weight changes.

Try different approaches before using a bed rail. If a bed rail is needed, the facility must (1) assess a
resident for safety risk; (2) review these risks and benefits with the resident/representative; (3) get informed
consent; and (4) Correctly install and maintain the bed rail.
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
observation, interview, and record review, the facility failed to ensure one of eighteen sampled residents
(Resident60): Failed to ensure Resident 60 were assessed for risk of entrapment from bed rails prior to
installation was completed. Failed to review the risk and benefits of bed rails with the resident
representative and obtain consent prior to installation. These failures had the potential to result in
compromised resident safety associated with unassed bed rail use.Findings: During a record ?review of
Resident 60's admission record indicated Resident 60 was admitted on [DATE] with a diagnoses of chronic
respiratory failure (condition in which your blood does not get enough oxygen or has too much carbon
dioxide), basal cell carcinoma of the skin (a type of skin cancer?that most often develops on areas of skin
exposed to the sun), chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD-a chronic lung disease causing
difficulty in breathing), and Alzheimer's disease (a disease characterized by a progressive decline in mental
abilities).? During a record review of Resident60's Minimum Data set [MDS)] resident assessment tool),
dated 11/07/25 indicated that Resident's cognitive was impaired. The MDS indicated that Resident 60's is
dependent (helper does all of the efforts) Resident does none of the effort to complete the activity. Or the
assistance of 2 or more helpers is required for the resident to complete the activity) of oral hygiene, toileting
hygiene, shower, upper and lower body dressing, and personal hygiene. During an observation on
12/2/2025 at 2:01 p.m. in resident 60's room, resident 60 was observed lying in bed facing the doorway with
elbows bend towards the chest, bilateral arms resting on chest, and both hands clenched in a fist. A white
linen blanket was pulled up to resident60's waist, the bed was in the low position, bilateral SCD boots were
in place with the machine on, both side rails raised. During a review of Resident60's medical record on
12/2/2025 at 12:09 p.m. revealed no documented bed rail risk assessment for entrapment, no
documentation of alternatives attempted, and no evidence of the resident's or Representative's informed
consent for bed rail use. There was no care plan addressing bed rail use or potential entrapment. During an
interview on 12/02/2025 at 3:15p.m. with Minimal Data Set Nurse 1 (MDS 1), MDS 1 stated that the nursing
staff do not assess for risk of entrapment from bed rails prior to having side rails on because all residents
have standing orders from admission to have side rails for positioning and as enabler. MDS1 further stated
that staff conduct bed rail assessments only for residents who are alert, and if resident is not alert, there
was no need to assess them for risk of entrapment for bed rail use. During a concurrent interview and
record review with RN 4 on 12/04/25 at 9:42 a.m., RN 4 stated that there was no risk assessment done for
Resident 60's side rail use during admission, nor was any consent form for siderail use as an enabler
obtained. RN 4 emphasized the importance of assessing residents before siderails are used for safety
reasons, as some residents may be at risk of entrapment, and not all the residents can safely use siderails
for mobility. Resident 60's MDS functional abilities, documented on 11/7/2025, indicated impairment (loss of
function) on both sides. RN 4 stated that resident 60 cannot use the siderails due to impairment of both
upper extremities (shoulder, elbow, wrist, hand). During a review of the facility's policy and procedure titled,
Restraints- Physical: Guidelines for use and assessment (Sub-Acute) dated on 06/14/2025, indicated, this
facility to assess resident prior to implementation of restraints to ensure appropriate protocols have been

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 interviews and record reviews, the facility failed to ensure adequate oversight of the Food and
Nutrition Services by qualified personnel, by failing to: 1. Ensure the Director of Food Services met the state
and federal requirements for the position and did not have other leadership responsibilities outside of the
Dietetics Services department. The Dietary Manager (DM) did not receive at least six hours of in-service
training on the specific California dietary service requirements contained in CCR title 22 (health and safety
code 1265.4). 2. Ensure the hours dedicated to the oversight of the Food and Nutrition Services by the
Director of Food Services were adequate for the scope and complexity of the food service operation. The
DM was the Director of Food Services and was also overseeing patient transport, environmental services
and overhead operations. These deficient practices had the potential to compromise the safety and
nutritional status of residents via cross contamination (transfer of germs and/or bacteria from one surface to
another), and decreased meal satisfaction and intake.Cross Reference: F802, F812Findings:During an
interview with the Dietary Manager (DM) on 12/1/2025 at 1:00PM regarding kitchen supervision, the DM
stated DM was a full-time employee overseeing food service department, patient transport, Environmental
services and overhead operations. The DM stated everyday DM stopped by the kitchen to make sure
everything was ok. The DM stated Chef1, and the retail manager (RM) assisted the DM with the daily
operation of the kitchen. The DM stated both chef1 and RM did not have dietary manager credentials. The
DM stated the DM recently received the Dietary manager certification and did not know that the DM also
needed to complete required 6 hours of California State dietary service requirements. The DM stated the
DM's time was split into overseeing different departments within the facility and was not always in the
kitchen. The DM's office was not located in the kitchen. A review of DM's credentials on 12/1/2025 at
9:00AM, indicated the DM had a certification from an accredited certified dietary manager program
effective through 8/31/2026. However, the DM did not receive at least six hours of in-service training on the
specific California dietary service requirements contained in CCR title 22 (health and safety code 1265.4).
During an interview with the Registered Dietitian (RD) on 12/1/2025 at 9:30AM, the RD stated RD was the
clinical Nutrition Manager and supervised three full time dietitians and part time dietitians. The RD assisted
with in-services for the kitchen staff and stated the DM was mainly overseeing the kitchen. During a review
of facility job description for Food Service Supervisor dated 6/27/2011, the job description indicated
Supervises production.observes methods of food preparation and cooking, size of portions etc. To ensure
food is prepared in prescribed manner.enforces nutrition and sanitation standards for unit. During a review

Based on observations, interviews, and record review the facility failed to ensure kitchen staff were trained
and evaluated for competency skills when: 1.Food Service Worker (FSW2) did not know the proper
sanitizer test strip (a small, chemically treated paper or plastic strip used to measure the concentration
(strength) of a sanitizing solution) to use for the sanitizer solution (chemical mixture used after cleaning to
reduce the number of harmful microorganisms, like bacteria, on food-contact surfaces to a level considered

food is Level 5 Minced and Moist per order (IDDSI Fork Test-the lump size is 4mm which is about the gap
between the prongs of standard dinner fork, IDDSI spoon tilt test-sample holds its shape on the spoon and
fall off fairly easily if the spoon is tilted not firm or sticky). These deficient practices had the potential to
result in unsafe and unsanitary food production that could place 6 out of 67 residents in the facility who
received food from the facility's kitchen at risk for food borne illness. These deficient practices also placed
the residents at risk for meal dissatisfaction, malnutrition, and choking. Findings:1. During an observation in
the cold food preparation area on 12/1/2025 at 10:20AM, FSW2 was asked to test the effectiveness of the
sanitizer solution in a red bucket. FSW2 looked for the test strip to use then asked Chef1 for assistance.
Chef 1 provided FSW2 with the test strip to use and instructed FSW2 to immerse the test strip in the
solution and compare color change on the test strip canister for color chart. FSW2 immersed the wrong end
of the test strip and removed quickly then stated there was no change in color. FSW2 stated FSW2 did not
test for the effectiveness of the sanitizer and relied on another staff to check the sanitizer solution. During a
concurrent observation in the kitchen and interview with Chef1 and the Dietary Manager (DM) on 12/1/2025
at 10:30AM, Chef1 stated all kitchen staff had been trained to check the sanitizer solution effectiveness
using the test strips provided. The DM stated kitchen staff recently had an in-service on how to test the
sanitizer solutions, and it was expected for staff to know. Chef1 stated it was important for staff to know how
to test the sanitizer to make sure the solution was effective in sanitizing food contact surfaces and to
prevent cross contamination. Chef 1 stated the staff in-service done on sanitizers was a presentation style
in-service. During a review of manufacturer instructions for testing the sanitizer indicated to dip a test strip
for 5 seconds, shake excess solution off, wait 10 seconds then compare the color on the test strip with
colors on the test strip canister to determine concentration, normal solution had to be between
272-700ppm. During a review of the facility training agenda and roster titled SAFE training dated 7/17/2025
indicated staff participated in the SAFE training, information was presented during the training and its staff
responsibility for adhering to the procedures and controls in the programs. There was no competency
evaluation checklist post training. During a review of facility Food Service Workers job description (dated
3/5/2012) indicated, adheres to all sanitation procedures; sets up and maintains assigned work area in a
neat, clean manner to facilitate efficiency and ensure food safety 2.During an observation in the kitchen of

be very loose, with a pureed (food that's been blended, ground, or strained until it's a smooth, lump-free,
pudding-like consistency, requiring no chewing) consistency. During the serving of the minced and moist
turkey chili, the chili was poured from the serving scoop into a bowl and appeared to be a smooth
consistency. Sous chef (chef2), chef2 stated the minced and moist was the regular turkey chili except
blended so it would be smoother. Chef2 stated kitchen staff served the minced and moist turkey chili in
bowls. Chef 2 stated the cooks prepared the minced and moist turkey chili. During a concurrent interview
with cook1, cook2 and chef1 on 12/1/2025 at 12:30PM, cook2 stated he prepared the minced and moist
turkey chili, cook2 stated the food processor was used to make the turkey chili smooth. Cook2 did not
remember how long the turkey chili was in the food processor. Cook1 assisted cook 2 in preparation of the
food. Cook1 stated the turkey chili was placed in the food processor and pulsed about 3 times to get a
smooth consistency. Cook1 stated minced and moist food should be small enough to fit through the gaps of
the fork and juices should not go through the fork. When asked to demonstrate the test to make sure the
minced and moist food meets were to the specification of the minced and moist diet per the IDDSI
guidelines. Cook1 stated a fork was used to press on the food to make sure it was soft and fit between the
gaps of fork and there were no runny juices. Cook1 pressed on the turkey chili and removed some with fork
and then stated, the turkey chili might have been pulsed a long time in the food processor, and it was more
like a puree. Chef1 stated the turkey chili was already a minced product and should have not been
processed a long time to keep the consistency minced and not puree like. During a review of the facility
recipe for the turkey chili, it indicated for minced and moist diet to place the regular turkey chili in the food
processor and pulse once or twice to achieve the minced texture. During an interview with the DM on
12/1/2025 at 12:30PM, the DM stated the cooks had to follow the recipe for minced and moist to prepare
the correct texture. During a review of the IDDSI guideline website titled IDDSI and dated 7/2019, the IDSSI
guideline indicated that Level 5 Minced and Moist was usually eaten with spoon or fork, for people who
could not bite off pieces of food safely but had some basic chewing ability. The guideline indicated it was
important that food was not sticky. The guideline indicated food was to be scooped onto a fork, with no
liquid dripping and no crumbles falling off the fork. The guideline indicated the size of the food was to be
4mm, which was about the gap between the prongs of a standard dinner fork. During a review of facility
cook's job description (dated 3/5/2023) indicated, Measures and mixes ingredients according to
recipe.recognizes and adopts the appropriate menus and recipes to the specific needs of the
patient/resident.

storage and distribution practices when:1. Five trays of expired raw cookie dough and four large bags of
expired crumbled blue cheese were stored in the walk-in refrigerator.2. Two large boxes of raw chicken were
thawing inside the walk-in refrigerator with no thaw date (date marked on frozen potentially hazardous food
when it is removed from the freezer and placed under refrigeration to thaw).3. One bag of frozen mango
was stored in the walk-in freezer with the bag open exposed to the freezer environment.4. Resident food
was delivered from the main kitchen located in Building A to the facility located across the street in a food
cart crossing through traffic and the public street. These deficiencies 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 foodborne illness in 6 out of 67 residents who received food from the facility.Findings:1. During an
observation of the walk-in freezer in the kitchen located in building A on 12/1/2025 at 9:00AM, a cart was
observed with uncooked cookies stored in the walk-in refrigerator with a use by date of 11/25/2025 (6 days
past use by date). During a concurrent observation of the walk-in freezer in the kitchen located in building A
with the Dietary Manager (DM) and executive chef (chef1) on 12/1/2025 at 9:00AM, the DM stated kitchen
staff should have discarded the cookies if the cookies were not prepared. Chef1 stated staff took the
cookies out of the freezer to thaw in the refrigerator and didn't use it. Chef1 said kitchen staff should have
discarded the cookies per use by date because the cookies were old. Chef1 stated kitchen staff were to use
all food or discard by the use by date to make sure fresh products were served. Chef1 stated when food

Level of Harm - Minimal harm
or potential for actual harm
Based on observation, interview and record review, the facility failed to ensure that one of eighteen
sampled residents (Resident 71) had access to a functional call light. This deficient practice had the
potential to result in negative impact on Resident 71 safety.Findings:During a review of admission record ,
the admission Record indicated that Resident 71 was admitted initially on the facility on 08/03/2024 with
diagnoses including chronic respiratory failure (condition in which your blood does not get enough oxygen
or has too much carbon dioxide) with tracheostomy (a surgical opening through your neck and into your
windpipe to establish a direct airway for breathing), on ventilator (a medical device to help support or
replace breathing), diabetes (DM-a disorder characterized by difficulty in blood sugar control and poor
wound healing), cerebral ischemic stroke (loss of blood flow to a part of the brain), muscle weakness and
gastrostomy (a surgical opening fitted with a device to allow feedings to be administered directly to the
stomach common for people with swallowing problems). During a review of the Minimum Data Set (MDS resident assessment tool) dated 11/07/2025, indicated Resident 71's cognitive (mental action or process of
acquiring knowledge and understanding) skills suggests that the individual has a severe level of cognitive
impairment. The MDS indicated Resident 71 requires maximum assistance from the staff for activities of
daily living ADLs (ADLs- routine tasks/activities such as bathing, dressing and toileting a person performs
daily to care for themselves).During the initial tour on 12/1/2025 at 9:25 a.m., Resident 71 had no call light
system in place. During a concurrent observation and interview on 12/1/2025 at 9:50 a.m. with Treatment
Nurse 2 (TX 2) in Resident 71's bedside, TX 2 stated there was no call light in place attached to the call
system. TX 2 stated there should be a call light here but maybe they took it out.During an interview on
12/4/2025 at 08:49 a.m. with Registered Nurse 4 (RN 4), RN 4 stated that staff must always keep the call
light within the resident's reach, as it is crucial for residents to request assistance and prevent falls. RN 4
stated without call light their delayed responses to residents' needs can compromise their safety.During an
interview on 12/4/2025 at 11:00 a.m. with Director of Nursing (DON), DON stated the importance of
providing residents with access to a call light for their safety as it allows residents to request assistance
when needed.During a review of Resident 71's Order Summary Report dated 12/4/2025, the order
summary indicated an order was initiated on 8/19/2025 stated appropriate call light within reach every shift
for safety.During a review of Resident 71's care plan titled Care Plan Report initiated date on 08/15/2024,
the resident has an ADL self-care performance deficit related to limited mobility. Interventions stated as
follows: encourage the resident to use bell to call for assistance.During a review of the facility's policy and
procedure (P&P), titled, Call Light System revised on 10/2024, the P&P indicated, ensure call light is within
the reach of the patient/resident at all times. As soon as the request is addressed, ensure call light device is
positioned and placed appropriately before leaving the bedside.
