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 call lights/pad sensors (a
communication device used by residents in healthcare facilities to signal for assistance from nursing staff)
were within reach for two of two sampled residents (Residents 46 and 32).These failures had the potential
for Residents 46 and 32 not to receive necessary care or receive delayed services.Findings:
Residents Affected - Some
a. During a review of Resident 46’s admission Record (AR), the AR indicated Resident 46 was
readmitted to the facility on [DATE] with diagnoses including contracture (a stiffening/shortening at any
point, that reduces the joint’s range of motion) of the right hand and elbow, quadriplegia (paralysis
from the neck down, including legs, and arms, usually due to a spinal cord injury), and history of falling.
During a review of Resident 46’s Minimum Data Set (MDS, a resident assessment tool), dated
5/15/2025, the MDS indicated Resident 46 had severely impaired cognition (ability to understand and
process information) and was dependent (helper did all the effort, resident did none of the effort to
complete the activity) on staff with oral hygiene, toileting, shower, upper and lower body dressing and
personal hygiene.
During a review of Resident 46’s Care Plan (CP), dated 5/14/2025, the CP indicated Resident 46
was at risk for falls / injury related to generalized weakness, impaired cognition, impaired vision, poor
balance and safety awareness / judgement. The CP interventions included keeping the pad / call light within
easy reach and close to the resident.
During an observation, inside Resident 46’s room on 7/22/2025 at 8:40 a.m., with the Infection
Prevention Nurse (IPN), Resident 46 was in bed, and on her back with the pad sensor above and on the
right upper part of the bed, next to Resident 46’s pillow. Resident 46 could move Resident
46’s left arm and hand up and down. Resident 46’s right arm and hand were contracted.
During a concurrent interview, the IPN stated Resident 46 could not move her right arm and hand and
could not reach the pad sensor call light. The IPN stated the pad sensor call light should be placed close or
next to Resident 46’s left arm and hand for Resident 46 to use when needed.
During an interview on 7/24/2025 at 10:36 a.m., the Director of Nursing (DON) stated all pad sensors and
call lights should be placed on the strong arm / hand of the resident to call for assistance and for staff to
address the resident’s needs timely.
During a review of the facility’s policy and procedures (P&P) titled, “Call System,
Resident,” dated March 2023, the P&P indicated, “Each resident is provided with a means to
call staff directly for assistance from his/her bed, from toileting/bathing facilities and from the

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 one of six sampled residents
(Resident 40's) right to a clean homelike environment. Resident 40's room had peeling paint on the walls
and closet.This deficient practice caused an increased risk for Resident 40's psychosocial environment and
comfort in accordance with resident preferences.Findings:During a review of Resident 40's admission
Record, the admission Record indicated Resident 40 was admitted to the facility on [DATE] and was
readmitted on [DATE] with diagnoses including dementia (a progressive state of decline in mental abilities),
schizoaffective disorder (a chronic mental illness that affects a person's thinking, behavior, and perception
of reality), and gastro-esophageal reflux disease([GERD]- stomach acids flow back up into esophagus and
causes heartburn).During a review of Resident 40's Minimum Data Set (MDS - a resident assessment tool),
dated 4/15/2025, the MDS indicated Resident 40 had severe cognitive impairment (ability to reason,

**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 44) received necessary care and services to ensure resident's abilities to perform activities of
daily living (ADL -routine tasks to perform daily care for themselves) do not diminish. Resident 44 was
observed in bed for three days during the day shift and was not out of bed per physician's order. This
deficient practice caused an increased risk in Resident 44's mental and physical abilities. Findings:During a
review of Resident 44's admission Record, the admission Record indicated Resident 44 was admitted to
the facility on [DATE] with diagnoses including peripheral vascular disease (a group of conditions affecting
the circulatory system that can impair blood flow), chronic kidney disease (damaged kidneys cannot filter
blood as needed causes risks of high blood pressure and heart disease), and diabetes mellitus (DM - a
disorder characterized by difficulty in blood sugar control and poor wound healing). During a review of the
Physician's Order Summary Report dated 3/17/2025, the Order Summary Report indicated Resident 40
may be out of bed per schedule. During a review of Resident 44's Minimum Data Set (MDS- a resident
assessment tool), dated 6/23/2025, the MDS indicated Resident 44's rarely had the ability to understand
others. The MDS indicated Resident 44's activity preferences were participating in favorite activities and
spending time outdoors. The MDS indicated Resident 44 was dependent (helper does all the effort and the
resident does none of the effort to complete the activity) on staff for personal hygiene, showering, and
dressing.During an observation 7/22 and 7/23/2025, Resident 40 was lying in bed from 8 a.m. to 4:30 p.m.
During a telephone interview on 7/23/2025 at 1:46 p.m., Case Worker 1 stated when he visited Resident 40
(at least three times a month) she (Resident 40) was in bed. During an observation on 7/24/2025 Resident
40 continued to lie in bed from 8 a.m.-4:30 p.m. During a concurrent interview and record review on
7/24/2025 at 10 a.m. with Licensed Vocational Nurse (LVN) 3, Resident 40's Order Summary Report dated
3/17/2025 was reviewed. The Order Summary Report indicated Resident 40 may be out of bed per
schedule. LVN 3 stated Resident 40 had not been taken out of the bed on 7/22, 7/23, or 7/24/2025, and that
there was no specific schedule to take the resident out of the bed. LVN 3 stated not taking Resident 40 out
of the bed could cause the resident to feel isolated, decrease body movement, and decrease circulation for
the resident. During a review of facility's policy and procedure (P&P) titled, Activities of Daily Living (ADLs),
Supporting, dated 3/2023, the P&P indicated residents would be provided with care, treatment, and
services as appropriate to maintain or improve their ability to carry out of ADLs. The P&P indicated care,
and services would be provided for residents who were unable to carry out ADLs independently to prevent
or minimize functional decline.

**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 32), who had a shoulder injury, received care and equipment assistance. Resident 32's splints (a
medical device used to stabilize and support a body part), were not applied per physician's order. This
deficient practice caused an increased risk in contractures (a stiffening/shortening at any joint, that reduces
the join's range of motion) for Resident 32. Findings:During a review of Resident 32's admission Record,
the admission Record indicated Resident 32 was admitted to the facility on [DATE] with diagnoses including
respiratory failure (a condition where there's not enough oxygen or too much carbon dioxide in the body)
and a dislocated right shoulder (injury in which the upper arm bone popped out that's part of the shoulder
blade).During a review of Resident 32's History and Physical (H&P), dated 2/6/2025, the H&P indicated
Resident 32 was able to make decisions for activities of daily living.During a review of Resident 32's
Minimum Data Set (MDS- a resident assessment tool), dated 5/12/2025, the MDS indicated Resident 32
was dependent (helper does all the effort and the resident does one of the efforts to complete the activity)
on staff personal hygiene, showering, and dressing. The MDS indicated Resident 32 had limited range of
motion (a joint or body part cannot move as far) to the upper and lower extremities. During a review of the
Physician's Order Summary Report dated 5/14/2025, the Order Summary Report indicated for Resident 32
the Restorative Nurse Assistant (RNA) was to apply bilateral hand splint, right elbow splint, and bilateral
ankle-foot orthosis (AFO) boots daily, six days a week.During an observation on 7/22/2025 at 10 a.m.-4
p.m., Resident 32 did not have splints on as ordered by physician.During a concurrent observation and
interview on 7/23/2025 at 12 p.m. with RNA 1, in Resident 32's room, Resident 32 did not have a full set of
splints on her extremities as ordered by physician. RNA 1 stated my role was to place the splints on
Resident 32's extremities daily. RNA 1 stated Resident 32 was missing her left-hand splint and right elbow
splint. RNA 1 stated, I did not place all the splints on the resident. RNA 1 stated not being consistent with
placing the full set of splints daily could cause Resident 32 to have a decline or develop contractures.During
a concurrent observation and interview on 7/23/2025 at 1:38 p.m., Licensed Vocational Nurse (LVN) 3
stated Resident 32 did not have the full set of splints on, and she was missing the left hand and the right
elbow splint. LVN 3 stated the RNAs were to report when the resident when there were missing devices.
LVN 3 stated Resident 32 should be wearing the full set of splints to prevent contractures.During a review of
facility's policy and procedures (P&P) titled, Assistive Devices and Equipment, date unknown, the P&P
indicated the facility maintains and supervises the use of assistive devices and equipment for residents. The
P&P indicated devices and equipment that assist with resident mobility, safety, and independence were
provided for residents.During a review of facility's P&P titled, Restorative Nursing [NAME], dated 7/2017,
the P&P indicated residents would receive restorative nursing care as needed to help promote optimal
safety and independence. The P&P indicated restorative goals included supporting and assisting the

**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 101), who had history of falls, had a fall mat at the bedside per the physician's order to prevent
injury. This deficient practice caused an increased risk in Resident 101 being injured. During a review of
Resident 101's admission Record, the admission Record indicated Resident 101 was admitted to the
facility on [DATE] and readmitted on [DATE] with diagnoses including lack of coordination, history of falling,
and schizophrenia (a mental illness that is characterized by disturbances in thought).During a review of the
Physician's Order Summary, dated 6/9/2025, the summary indicated Resident 101 was ordered for the bed
at lowest position and a floor mat to prevent injury.During a review of Resident 101's History and Physical
(H&P), dated 6/10/2025, the H&P indicated Resident 101 did not have the capacity to understand and
make decisions.During a review of Resident 101's Minimum Data Set (MDS - a resident assessment tool),
dated 6/13/2025, the MDS indicated Resident 101 was not able to stand, transfer to toilet, or walk 10
feet.During a review of Resident 101's Fall Risk Evaluation, dated 7/5/2025, the evaluation indicated
Resident 101 was at risk for falls due to an actual fall.During a review of Resident 101's High Risk for Falls
care plan, dated 7/17/2025, the care plan indicated the facility would keep the bed at the lowest position
and use a floor mat to prevent injury.During a concurrent observation and interview on 7/23/2025 at 1:45
p.m. with Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA) 3 at the bedside of Resident 101, there was no floor mat
observed. CNA3 stated Resident 101 was supposed to have a floor mat because the resident climbed out
of bed. CNA3 stated Resident 101 has fallen before and because there was no floor mat if Resident 101
fell, she may be injured.During a review of the facility's policy and procedure (P&P) titled, Falls and Fall
Risk, Managing, dated March 2018, the P&P indicated staff would identify interventions related to the
resident's specific risks and try to minimize complications from falling.

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 label the nasal cannula (NC, a small plastic
tube, which fits into the person's nostrils for providing supplemental oxygen) tubing of a resident on oxygen
therapy (treatment that provides supplemental oxygen, or extra oxygen) consistent with the facility's policy
and procedure (P&P) for one of two sampled residents (Resident 75). This failure caused an increased risk
for infection to Resident 75. Findings:During a review of Resident 75's admission Record (AR), the AR
indicated Resident 75 was initially admitted to the facility on [DATE] and readmitted on [DATE] with
diagnoses including chronic respiratory failure (CRF, a condition where the lungs could not adequately
exchange oxygen and carbon dioxide over an extended period), tracheostomy (a surgical procedure that
creates an opening in the front of the neck, known as the trachea, or windpipe), acute embolism (the
blockage of a blood vessel by a substance that has traveled through the bloodstream from another part of
the body) and thrombosis (formation of a blood clot inside a blood vessel, obstructing the flow of
blood).During a review of the Physician's Order Summary Report (OSR), dated 4/1/2025, the OSR
indicated to place Resident 75 on oxygen through the NC at 2 liters per minute (LPM, the volume of oxygen
delivered per minute).During a review of Resident 75's Minimum Data Set (MDS, a resident assessment
tool), dated 7/11/2025, the MDS indicated Resident 75 had severely impaired cognition (ability to
understand and process information) and was dependent (helper did all the effort, resident did none of the
effort to complete the activity) on staff with oral hygiene, toileting, shower, upper and lower body dressing
and personal hygiene. The MDS indicated Resident 75 was on oxygen therapy.During an observation,
inside Resident 75's room, on 7/22/2025 at 8:23 a.m., with the infection prevention nurse (IPN), Resident
75 was in bed, on his back with oxygen through the NC at 2 LPM. During a concurrent interview, the IPN
stated the NC was not labeled with the date when it was changed, nor initialed with the name of the staff
who changed the oxygen tubing. The IPN stated nasal cannula and other oxygen therapy equipment should
be changed every week and dated when it was changed to determine when the last time the oxygen tubing
was changed for infection control purposes. During an interview on 7/24/2025 at 10:30 a.m., the Director of
Nursing (DON) stated oxygen tubing and other respiratory supplies should be labeled with a date when the
oxygen tubing was changed to prevent the spread of infection. During a review of the facility's undated
policy and procedure (P&P) titled, Oxygen Administration, the P&P indicated The date, time, and initials
should be noted on oxygen equipment when it is initially used and when changed.

Based on observation, interview and record review, the facility failed to ensure the shift nurse staffing
information was completed and posted in accordance with the facility's policy and procedures (P&P) for
three of three recertification days inspected (7/22, 7/23, and 7/24/2025) by failing to:-Ensure to post the
actual nurse staffing information for the skilled nursing and sub-acute stations at the beginning of each shift
in a prominent location readily accessible to residents, visitors, and staff for viewing.-Ensure the nurse
staffing information for the three to eleven post meridiem (PM, indicate hours from 12 noon to 11:59 pm at
night) shifts indicated the number of licensed and unlicensed staff working for the skilled nursing (SNF,
referred as nursing home) and sub-acute (level of medical care less intensive but more specialized than
typical skilled nursing care) stations.These failures had the potential to mislead the residents, visitors, and
staff of the actual staffing in the facility that may affect the quality of nursing care provided to the
residents.Findings:During an observation in the skilled nursing stations 1, 2, and 3 and concurrent interview
on 7/22/2025 at 10:20 am with the Director of Staff Development (DSD), there was no staffing information
posted in nursing stations 1, 2, and 3. The DSD stated staff information was posted only in the sub-acute
station and for the SNF station, it was on the side wall of the hallway close to the front office.During a
review on of the facility's daily shift nurse staffing information for the skilled nursing (stations 1, 2, and 3)
and sub-acute stations, dated 7/22, 7/23, and 7/24/2025, the daily shift nurse staffing information for the
3-11 pm shifts did not indicate the number of working licensed and unlicensed nursing staff directly
responsible for the care of the residents.During an interview on 7/25/2025 at 11:46 pm, the DSD stated the
current location of the staffing information was not visible and not accessible (can be easily reached or
obtained without effort) to the visitors, residents and staff. The DSD stated the staffing information should
be filled out within two hours of the beginning of the shift and posted in a prominent and visible location for
the visitors, residents, and staff to know the facility had enough staffing to provide appropriate care to the
residents. During an interview on 7/25/2025 at 11:56 am, the Director of Nursing (DON) stated staffing
information should be posted on a prominent, visible and accessible location like the nursing stations and
the lobby for the visitors, residents, and staff and staffing information should be updated to reflect the actual
hours of the licensed and unlicensed staff working within two hours after a shift began, for accurate
reporting to the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS, a federal agency responsible for
administering the Medicare and Medicaid programs) and to know the facility had sufficient staff to care for
the residents in the facility. During a review of the facility's policy and procedures (P&P) titled, Posting Direct
Crae Daily Staffing Numbers, revised August 2022, the P&P indicated Within two hours of the beginning of
each shift, the number of licensed nurses (RNs, LPNs, and LVNs) and unlicensed nursing personnel (CNAs
and NAs) directly responsible for resident care is posted in a prominent location (accessible to residents
and visitors) and in clear a clear and readable format.

**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
observation, interview, and record review, the facility failed to ensure three of three sampled residents
(Resident 2, Resident 38 and Resident 83) medications were properly labeled and stored in accordance
with the current accepted professional standards of practice.a. Resident 2's bottle of Gabapentin (an
anticonvulsant medication used for nerve pain and seizures) stored in the refrigerator was not labeled with
the residents' identifying information, drug information, or drug instructions. b. Resident 38's package of
Sinemet (Carbidopa- Levodopa, used to treat tremors, stiffness and slow movement) medication was not
removed from the medication cart once it had expired; andc. Resident 83's package of carvedilol (Coreg,
used to manage heart conditions) medication was not removed from the medication cart once it had
expired. These deficient practices caused an increased risk in residents receiving the wrong medication or
ineffective medications leading to health complications, hospitalization or death.Findings:a. During a review
of Resident 2's Face Sheet, the Face Sheet indicated Resident 2 was readmitted to the facility on [DATE]
with diagnoses including neuropathy (disease or dysfunction of one or more nerves, typically causing
numbness or weakness in the hands and feet), and osteoarthritis (a progressive disorder of the joints,
caused by a gradual loss of cartilage). During a review of Resident 2's History and Physical (H&P) dated
[DATE], the H&P indicated Resident 2 did not have the capacity to understand and make decisions. During
a review of Resident 2's Minimum Data Set (MDS - a resident assessment tool) dated [DATE], the MDS
indicated Resident 2 had problems with short-term and long-term memory. The MDS indicated Resident 2
had limitations in movement on both sides of the upper and lower extremities (pertaining to the arms and
legs).During a review of the Physician's Order Summary Report dated [DATE], the Order Summary Report
indicated for Resident 2 to receive Gabapentin 2 milliliters (ml., unit of measurement) every eight hours for
neuropathy. During an observation [DATE] at 7:30 a.m., inside the Station 3 medication room refrigerator,
an orange clear bottle was seen with a medication label that had Resident 2's name on it, Gabapentin
250mg, and an open date of [DATE]. During a concurrent observation and interview on [DATE] at 7:50 a.m.
with Licensed Vocational Nurse (LVN) 1, LVN 1 stated the medication label should have the expiration date
on it, medication information including instructions, and the expiration date on it. LVN 1 stated Resident 2's
bottle of Gabapentin was missing information on it because it was faded. LVN 1 stated you could not see
the instructions for taking the medication, the concentration of the medication, or the expiration date. LVN 1
stated it was important to have all the information on the medication label because a nurse would not know
all the information regarding the medication. b. During a review of Resident 38's Face Sheet, the Face
Sheet indicated Resident 38 was admitted to the facility on [DATE] with diagnoses including Parkinsonism
(a progressive disease of the nervous system marked by tremors, muscular rigidity, and slow, imprecise
movements), and dementia (a progressive state of decline in mental abilities). During a review of Resident
38's H&P dated [DATE], the H&P indicated Resident 38 did not have the capacity to understand and make
decisions. During a review of Resident 38's MDS dated [DATE], the MDS indicated Resident 38 had
short-term and long-term memory problems and had impairments in movement on both sides of the upper
and lower extremities.During a review of the Physician's Order Summary Report, the Order Summary
Report indicated Resident 38 was prescribed carbidopa-levodopa 25-100mg to be given one tablet a day
for Parkinson's disease.c. During a review of Resident 83's Face Sheet, the Face Sheet indicated Resident
83 was originally admitted on [DATE] and readmitted on [DATE] with diagnoses including hypertension

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 sampled resident (Resident 63)
had a bottle of opened prune juice refrigerated as indicated on the product label.This deficient practice had
the potential for Resident 63 to experience foodborne illness (diseases caused by contamination of food
and occur at any stage in food production, delivery and consumption).Findings:During an observation on
7/22/2025 at 11:03 a.m., a bottle of opened and half consumed prune juice was seen on Resident 63's
nightstand. The label on the bottle indicated to refrigerate after opening.During an observation on
7/22/2025 at 2:33 p.m., the bottle of the opened prune juice remained on Resident 63's nightstand. During
a review of Resident 63's Face Sheet, the Face Sheet indicated Resident 63 was readmitted to the facility
on [DATE] with diagnoses including diverticulosis (a condition where small pouches form in the lining of the
colon and push outward through weak spots in the intestinal wall), and paraplegia (loss of movement
and/or sensation, to some degree, of the legs).During a review of Resident 63's History and Physical (H&P)

refrigerator to store residents' food. The AD stated the nursing and activities staff provided education on
storing personal food items in the refrigerator because sometimes the residents did not want their food
items to be stored in the refrigerator or did not want their perishable food items to be thrown away. The AD
stated it was important to store perishable food items in the refrigerator for the residents to avoid residents
from getting sick. During a concurrent observation and interview on 7/24/2025 at 3:40 p.m. with the AD and
Resident 63, the AD looked at the bottle of prune juice on Resident 63's nightstand and stated the label on
it indicated to refrigerate the bottle after opening. Resident 63 stated his family brought that in for him and
the bottle had been there for almost two weeks now. The AD stated it was important to store the bottle as
labeled by the manufacturer to avoid illness caused by the food going bad.During a review of the facility's
policy and procedure (P&P) titled, Foods Brought by Family/Visitors, dated 3/2022, the P&P indicated
perishable foods were stored in re-sealable containers with tightly fitting lids in a refrigerator and potentially
hazardous foods that were left out for the resident without a source of heat or refrigeration longer than two
hours were thrown away.

Provide rooms that are at least 80 square feet per resident in multiple rooms and 100 square feet for single
resident rooms.
Based on observation, interview, and record review, the facility failed to ensure seven of 63 resident rooms
(Rooms 114, 115, 116, 117, 119, 121, and 123) met the square footage requirement of 80 square feet (sq.
ft. - unit of measurement) per resident in multiple resident rooms. This deficient practice had the potential
for the residents not have enough space for activities of daily living (ADL- routine tasks/activities such as
bathing, dressing, and toileting a person performs daily to care for themselves) and hinder staff from
providing nursing care to the residents. Findings: During an observation on 7/22-7/25/2025, during the
Recertification Survey, Rooms 114, 115, 116, 117, 119, 121, and 123 had adequate space, nursing, care,
comfort, and privacy for the residents. The residents were observed to have enough space to move freely
inside the rooms and staff had adequate space to provide care for the residents. During an interview with
the facility Administrator (ADM) on 7/22/2025 at 2 p.m., the ADM stated the facility requested a room wavier
this year for Rooms 114, 115, 116, 117, 119, 121, and 123. The ADM stated nothing had changed,
including the number of bed occupancy to the rooms.During a review of the facility's letter to request a
room wavier dated 7/22/2025, the letter indicated there was reasonable privacy, closet and storage space
provided in each room. The letter indicated there was sufficient room to provide nursing care and resident
equipment. The letter indicated the rooms were in accordance with the special needs of all the residents as
necessary. The letter indicated that all rooms had windows, and no rooms were below ground level. The
letter indicated that the health and safety of each resident would not be jeopardized by the waiver. The letter
indicated the room waiver would not adversely affect the resident's health and safety. The room waiver letter
dated 7/22/2025 and Client Accommodation Analysis dated 7/22/2025 indicated the following:Room Sq. ft.
