residents (Resident 1).
The facility failed to:
1. Supervise Resident 1 and Resident 2 who were smoking on the patio and having an argument on
4/12/2025 at 3:45 a.m. as indicated in both residents' Smoking Assessment Form.
2. Assess and monitor Resident 2 when he was restless and had an escalating behavior manifested by
yelling and demanding staff for a cigarette to smoke, pacing (to walk in one direction and then back again)
back and forth at the facility's nursing station and hallways on 4/12/2025, from 12:00 a.m. to 3:30 a.m.

staff to give him cigarettes, pacing in the hallways and verbalizing that a guy was giving him
Methamphetamine (stimulant [substance that raises nervous activity in the body] that is highly addictive).

1 should have staff supervision on 4/12/2025 at around 3:00 a.m. and 4:00 a.m. when Resident 1 went out
to the patio to smoke for safety. The DSD stated the CNAs should be making rounds every two hours to
ensure the whereabouts of each resident. DSD stated the CNAs should be aware where their residents
were to prevent fall, any change in condition, injury and elopement (the act of leaving the facility
unsupervised and without prior authorization). The DSD stated the residents (in general) were not allowed
to have cigarettes in their possession because the residents could burn, hurt themselves or an altercation
can occur between residents.
During an interview on 4/28/2025, at 1:10 p.m. with the Director of Nursing (DON), the DON stated
residents do not smoke at night and if the residents carry a cigarette, the staff should confiscate their lighter
and cigarette. The DON stated the licensed nurse should have assigned a CNA to monitor Resident 2's
aggressive behavior and notify the physician to manage his behavior. The DON stated there should have
been a staff supervising Resident 1's while smoking to prevent the risk of injury. The DON stated this
incident was avoidable and preventable if only staff supervised Resident 1 when he went out to smoke on
the patio, and the licensed nurse identified and managed Resident 2's aggressive behavior.
During a review of facility's policy and procedure (P&P) titled, Accidents and Supervision, undated, the P&P
indicated the resident's environment should remain free of accident hazards and each resident receives
adequate supervision to prevent accidents.
During a review of facility's P&P titled, Smoking Policy- Residents, undated, the P &P indicated smoking
articles for residents without independent smoking privileges may not have or keep any type of smoking
articles, including cigarettes, tobacco except when they are under direct supervision. The P &P indicated
any resident with restricted smoking privileges requiring monitoring shall have the direct supervision of a
staff member at all times while smoking.

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 Assurance (Q A)/ Quality Assurance and
Performance Improvement (QAPI) (a data driven proactive approach to improvement used to ensure
services are meeting quality standards) committee failed to address , maintain, and develop an effective
plan to correct identified problems after the deficient practices were identified related to abuse and accident
on 4/28/2025 during an investigation of a facility reported incident (FRI- process by which a healthcare
facility documents and reports an event that occurred within the facility and potentially affected the safety of
residents, staff or the facility itself).
This failure resulted into a repeated deficient practice about abuse and supervision which could affect the
health and safety of the residents.
Findings:
During an interview on 6/6/2025, at 11:50 a.m. with the Director of Nursing (DON), the DON stated she did
not address the identified problems related to abuse and smoking supervision in their QAPI/QA Committee
agenda. The DON stated it did not dawn on me to do it and did not have to wait for a quarterly meeting in
July for the identified problems with regards to abuse and smoking supervision. The DON stated the facility
had a QAPI meeting last April 2 but did not address identified problems concerning abuse and smoking
supervision. The DON stated the facility conducts meeting every three months. The DON stated QAPI was
important to prevent reoccurrences of abuse providing a safe environment for the residents. The DON
stated the facility should have enough staff to cover supervision of residents to prevent occurrences of
abuse.
During an interview on 6/6/2025, at 1:57 p.m. with the Administrator (ADM) , the ADM stated that the facility
includes the issue of abuse , smoking and supervision on their next QAPI meeting. The ADM stated the
facility will review issues in the facility , will plan and address the issues affecting the facility like monitoring
residents , smoking and abuse.
During a review of facility ' s policy and procedure (P&P) titled, QAPI Change Process, undated, the P&P
indicated the facility will establish and utilize a systematic approach to performance improvement activities
to ensure changes are effective and improvements are sustained. The P &P indicated once the root cause
of a problem is identified, QAA committee will develop appropriate corrective actions plans and will continue
to track performance to ensure that improvements are sustained.

Based on observation, interview and record review , the facility failed to observe infection control practice
by failing to ensure four of ten sampled staff members wear a mask when the facility was in a Covid
outbreak( two or more linked cases of the same illness caused by Covid 19 virus[infectious and contagious
disease caused by coronavirus]).

lobby of the facility not wearing a mask. CNA 2 stated there were residents who were positive for Covid 19
in the facility. CNA 2 stated she did not wear a mask because she thought it was not mandatory to wear
mask even there was a Covid 19 outbreak.
During an initial tour observation of the facility on 6/5/2025, at 8:20 a.m., observed several residents not
wearing a mask in the hallway. Observed the Administrator, and some facility staff members were not

mask because she felt hot. LVN 3 stated she should have always worn a mask to prevent spread of
infection among the vulnerable residents in the facility and staff.
During an interview on 6/6/2025, at 9:05 a.m., with Housekeeping Supervisor (HKS), HKS stated HSK 1
should have worn a mask while vacuuming the lobby for the safety of residents and staff. HKS stated not
wearing a mask during a Covid 19 outbreak had the potential to spread the infection.
During an interview on 6/6/2025, at 9:20 a.m. with Infection Preventionist Nurse (IPN), IPN stated the facility
had a Covid 19 outbreak that started on 5/28/2025 when both residents were presenting cough, and nasal
congestion(nasal passages were swollen with excess fluid and mucus ) and tested positive for Covid 19.
IPN stated she always reminded the staff to wear a mask and was communicated to the charge nurses
during huddle in the morning because the facility had an outbreak of Covid 19. IPN stated maybe the staff
thought Covid 19 illness was normal according to their perception. IPN stated she should explain the risks
and consequences of not wearing mask to help prevent spread of infection.
During an interview on 6/6/2025, at 12:40 p.m. with the Director of Nursing (DON) , the DON stated the
facility had a Covid 19 outbreak and everyone should be wearing a mask to prevent spread of infection. The
DON stated elderly people like their residents have a great risk of contracting the Covid 19 infection.
