on 08/26/25 at 11:15 a.m., the MD stated, I have previously worked in long term care facilities and have an
extensive background in facility maintenance. The MD said it is the MD's responsibility to maintain the
building, all the equipment and the items in the facility, including mechanical and electrical. I had planned to
do a comprehensive room-to-room review; however, I had not gotten that done to date. Residents can
report issues with their rooms to any staff member. Once reported, the staff puts the work order into the
electronic reporting system. The MD said a notification is alerted to the cell phone that there is a work order
in the electronic reporting system. From there the MD prioritizes as to what gets fixed first. The system
allows the MD to prioritize based on the MD experience. Once the prioritization is determined, then we just
start at the top or request items from a vendor for repair and then make the necessary repairs. During a
tour on 08/26/2025 at 2:10 p.m. with the MD, of rooms,122, 218, 223, 224, 225, 227, 228 and 229, the MD
stated, I have no answer for the issues with the rooms.During a tour on 08/27/25 at 3:15 p.m. with the MD
of room [ROOM NUMBER], the MD stated, we do not currently have any resolution to fixing the ceiling or
moving the residents out of the area. Review of an unsigned undated document named, work orders open
and in progress, showed only one room [ROOM NUMBER], was identified as having wall damage. Review
of an undated, unsigned, job description titled Maintenance Director, showed the Maintenance Director is
responsible for the overall maintenance of the facility and provides direction for all activities related to plant
operations. The maintenance director ensures the facility, equipment and utilities are maintained in good
working order and facility grounds are properly maintained in accordance with the facility policies and state
and federal regulations.The essential Duties and Responsibilities showed:Perform minor repairs and

Honor the resident's right to voice grievances without discrimination or reprisal and the facility must
establish a grievance policy and make prompt efforts to resolve grievances.
Based on record reviews and interviews, the facility failed to ensure the grievance process was followed for
one resident (#45) and Resident Council members out of three residents reviewed for grievances. Findings
included: On 8/27/25 at 1:13 p.m., an interview with Resident #45 revealed that the resident has been
missing three pairs of cargo pants, has had a second pair of pants discolored/damaged from laundry, and
complains that staff is not taking his soiled linens daily to be washed. Resident #45 expressed that the
facility has yet to replace the damaged and lost items despite advising Resident #45 that they will be
replaced and creating a grievance for each occasion. A review of Resident #45's admission record revealed
an original admission date of 2/15/2024, and a re-admission date of 8/14/2025 with diagnosis to include
type 2 diabetes, and chronic kidney disease. Review of the facility's Grievance Log dated from August
2024-August 2025 showed two documented grievances for Resident #45 in regard to laundry. A review of
Resident #45's Grievance/Concern Report dated 11/23/2024 initiated by Resident #45, revealed Resident
#45 reported three pairs of cargo pants are missing. The conclusions for grievance dated 11/23/24 revealed
a hand written note stating Unable to locate 3 pairs of cargo pants. The grievance report was not checked
off on whether the issue was resolved or not. The Date Assigned for this grievance was 11/25/24, and Date
Resolved By is empty. A review of Resident #45's Grievance/Concern Report dated 2/26/25 , revealed one
pair of green pants were sent to the laundry and came back a rust color. Resident #45 expressed Certified
Nursing Assistant (CNA) staff are not taking dirty clothes to the soiled linen room daily. The facility noted the
follow-up plan was for the laundry supervisor to check the chemicals in the washing machine, and for CNAs
to remove soiled linens from the resident's room. The conclusions for grievance dated 2/26/25 were
Resident #45's pants were discolored from laundry, CNAs are to pick up the resident's linens, and the
facility will order Resident #45 new pants. The Date Assigned for this grievance was 2/26/25, and Date
Resolved By is 2/28/25. The grievance report Resolution was checked as Not Confirmed. 2. During a
resident council meeting on 8/25/2025 at 3:06PM, multiple residents mentioned that the facility is slow
acting on grievances and grievances being completed, especially in regard to laundry. Residents were
experiencing missing and damaged clothing and have not heard back on a conclusion with grievances
made pertaining to laundry. On 8/27/25 at 1:38 p.m., an interview was conducted with the Nursing Home
Administrator (NHA). The NHA reported she cannot tell what has been done in regard to the grievances
made by Resident #45. The NHA explained Resident #45's pants were not returned because they probably
did not have an identification label and were not on the resident's inventory sheet. The NHA said clothing
items that do not have a label, go on a No Name rack so staff can go and look for any missing items of
residents, but Resident #45's missing items were not found there. The NHA expressed expectations were
for Resident #45 to be reeducated on the process and policy of purchasing items and at least advising the
Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA) or Nurse to label and add the items to the resident's inventory sheet. The
NHA confirmed even though the grievances were marked as complete, there was no follow up or course of
action describing the action taken by the Social Worker, and that grievances should only be marked as
completed as soon as Resident #45's pants were purchased back and received by the facility. The NHA
verified that the marked completed grievances were not followed out as notated, and there is no receipt or
proof of repurchase by the facility. A review of the facility's Grievance/Concern Management Policy &
Procedure, with an effective date of May 2025 revealed that rights also include the right to prompt efforts by
the facility to resolve resident concerns, including concerns/grievances with respect to the behavior of other
residents. Social services will monitor and

PASARR screening for Mental disorders or Intellectual Disabilities
Level of Harm - Minimal harm
or potential for actual harm
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
observations, record reviews, and interviews the facility failed to complete a Level II Pre-admission
Screening and Resident Review (PASRR) for one resident (#3) and failed to ensure the accuracy of a Level
I PASRR for one resident (#4) out of thirty-five initial pool residents. On 8/24/25 at 12:25 p.m. Resident #3
was observed lying in bed, with eyes closed and rhythmically breathing.
Residents Affected - Few
Review of Resident #3’s admission Record showed the resident had been admitted on [DATE]. The
record included diagnoses not limited to unspecified bipolar disorder, unspecified insomnia, and
unspecified depression.
Review of Resident #3’s PASRR dated 7/11/25 revealed it was completed at this facility and showed
the resident had diagnoses of bipolar disorder, depressive disorder, and Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder
(PTSD). The screening showed the resident was exhibiting signs and symptoms (s/s) of depression as
spouse recently passed. The decision-making portion of the PASRR did not reveal the resident had any
disorder resulting in functional limitations, did not typically have any issues with interpersonal functioning,
concentration, persistence or pace, and/or adaption to change. The screening completion showed the
resident did not have a diagnosis or suspicion of serious mental illness or intellectual disability therefore a
Level II PASRR evaluation was not required.
Review of Resident #3’s Care Plan revealed a focus for Trauma Informed Care – PTSD
diagnosis due to being a war veteran and used psychotropic medications to manage bipolar disorder and
insomnia.
An interview was conducted on 8/27/25 at 5:33 p.m. with the Director of Clinical Reimbursement (DCR).
The DCR stated if a resident had a diagnosis of PTSD and bipolar and stayed in the facility longer than 30
days a Level II PASRR was needed.
2. A review of Resident #4‘s admission Record revealed an original admission date of 1/2/2023, and
a re-admission date of 6/17/2025. The diagnoses included depression (1/5/23), insomnia (1/9/23), and
anxiety (9/22/23).
A review of Resident #4‘s Level I PASRR, dated 1/9/23, under Section I-Part A MI (Mental Illness) or
suspected MI, indicated only depressive disorder.
On 8/27/2025 at 2:36 p.m., during an interview the DCR said that updating PASRRs are the responsibility
of Social Services, but the Minimum Data Set personnel do a PASRR if anything such as new diagnoses
needs to be added. The DCR mentioned that she started doing this task “maybe a week ago to help
out.” The DCR revealed that the PASRR process starts when the admissions packet is received. A
review is done and if corrections need to be made, then they are corrected. The DCR is not sure if there is
a review process for PASRRs on a regular basis and the DCR only reviews them if a change of diagnosis is
made. The DCR confirmed that the PASRR for Resident #4 is missing anxiety, and mentioned that she
knows some PASRRs list insomnia, but not sure if it has to be documented on the PASRR for a resident.
The DCR mentioned that she is not sure why the PASRR for Resident #4 is not updated with the new
diagnosis from 2023, or when Resident #4 was re-admitted to the facility.
A review of the facility’s PASRR-Requirements for Completion Policy, with an effective date of
August 2025 revealed that “Preadmission screening will be conducted prior to admission as

Ensure residents do not lose the ability to perform activities of daily living unless there is a medical reason.
Level of Harm - Minimal harm
or potential for actual harm
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
observations, record reviews, and interviews the facility failed to provide nail care for two residents (#97 and
#45) out of five residents sampled for activities of daily living.Findings included:
Residents Affected - Few
1. On 8/24/25 at 12:35 p.m. Resident #97 was observed lying in bed. The resident was very pleasant and
answered questions appropriately. The observation revealed the resident’s fingernails on both hands
extended approximately 1/3 to ½ inch past the fingertips and were discolored. The resident reported
not wanting long fingernails and staff had not offered to cut them. Resident #97 said it had been at least
one month since the fingernails had been clipped.
On 8/26/25 at 12:03 p.m. Resident #97 was observed with fingernails 1/3 to ½ inch past the tips of
the fingers. The fingernails were discolored with a dark substance. The resident stated staff had not offered
to cut them and yes, the resident would allow them to do so.
On 8/27/25 at 9:09 a.m. Resident #97’s fingernails continued to be long and discolored.
Review of Resident #97s admission Record showed the resident was admitted on [DATE]. The record
included diagnoses not limited to unspecified dementia unspecified severity without behavioral disturbance,
psychotic disturbance, mood disturbance, and anxiety, muscle wasting and atrophy not elsewhere classified
multiple sites, other lack of coordination, and adult failure to thrive.
Review of Resident #97s Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA) tasks showed staff are to perform nail care with
personal hygiene/oral care. The task documentation showed the resident was to receive nail care as
needed (prn). The documentation revealed staff had documented nail care had been provided eight out of
twenty-seven days, and nail care had not been provided on the resident’s shower days of 8/5/25,
8/12/25, 8/15/25, 8/19/25, 8/22/25, and 8/26/25. The documentation showed the resident was to receive a
shower on the 3:00 p.m. – 11:00 p.m. shift on Tuesdays and Fridays and showed the resident had
not received a shower on Tuesday 8/5/25 and Tuesday 8/12/25, revealing the resident had three showers in
15 days.
Review of Resident #97s care plan showed the resident had an ADL self-care performance deficit related
to (r/t) weakness (and) activity intolerance. The interventions showed CNAs were to set up for oral care and
personal hygiene and assist of one for bathing. The care plan revealed the resident had impaired cognitive
function/dementia or impaired thought process related to (r/t) dementia and instructed staff to explain care
before providing it, ask yes/no questions in order to determine the resident’s needs, and to request
feedback to ensure understanding. The care plan did not include any focuses and/or interventions related to
the resident’s behavior of refusing care.
An interview was conducted on 8/27/25 at 11:27 a.m. with the Nursing Home Administrator (NHA). The
NHA stated staff could clip fingernails on certain residents and diabetics would put on list for podiatry to
see. The NHA reported believing podiatry could clip fingernails also, can file them down.
An interview was conducted on 8/27/25 at 1:38 p.m. with the Director of Nursing (DON). The DON reported
aides and nurses could cut fingernails and fingernails are cut by nurses for diabetic (resident's).

2. On 8/24/25 at 11:56 a.m., an observation of Resident #45 revealed long fingernails that had a dark
brown substance caked underneath.
On 8/27/25 at 1:13 p.m., an interview with Resident #45 revealed the resident preferred to be showered,
and nails clipped and upkept. Resident #45 stated that the staff never mentions anything about cutting his
nails, and that he would prefer them to be cut, Resident #45 also revealed that the staff has been cutting
his toenails only once every two months. Resident #45 would independently cut their nails if they had the
supplies to do so. Resident #45 had a scheduled shower on 8/25/25 and was still observed with long, dirty
fingernails.
A review of Resident #45’s admission record revealed an original admission date of 2/15/2024, and
a re-admission date of 8/14/2025.
A review of Resident #45’s care plan revealed ADL instruction to “Check nail length and trim
and clean on bath day and as necessary. Report any changes to the nurse.”
A review of Resident #45’s quarterly Minimum Data Set (MDS) assessment dated [DATE] revealed
section GG- Functional Abilities, the resident required supervision or touching assistance for shower/bathe
self-assessment and is independent for personal hygiene.
A review of Resident #45’s Nail Care task, with a look back over the last 30 days, revealed that
Resident #45 did not receive nail care on 7/31/25, 8/2/25, 8/4/25, 8/15/25, 8/16/25, 8/17/25, 8/18/25,
8/20/25, and 8/24/25 marked as “No Nail Care.”
A review of Resident #45’s bathing log revealed a shower schedule for Monday and Thursday during
the evening shift. The Administrator was requested to provide the past 60 days of shower logs for Resident
#45 but was only able to find shower logs for 8/18/25-8/25/25. Review of shower sheets for 8/18/25 and
8/21/25 revealed no answer was indicated for the question, “Does the resident need his/her toenails
cut?”
An interview on 8/27/25 at 10:56 a.m., with Staff T, Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA) said Resident #45
does not refuse ADL and nail care often, and that refusals for ADL care are documented on the
resident’s shower sheets and tasks, but the reason for refusal is written in “from time to time,
but most of the time it is just documented as ‘refused.” Staff T, CNA mentioned that the nurse
is made aware when refusals for ADL care are made.
An interview was conducted on 8/27/25 at 5:25 p.m., with Staff Q, CNA. Staff Q, CNA said “not
sure” if ADL care is provided for Resident #45 and her other residents when she is pulled to do
kitchen duties. Staff Q, CNA mentioned she provides ADL care for Resident #45 when she has the time
and is availability to complete the task.
An interview on 8/27/25 at 4:57 p.m., the Director of Nursing (DON) revealed that ADL care should be
provided to residents on the following shift and day if the resident is not available for care or refuses care
and should be documented along with the reason for refusal on the resident’s shower sheet. The
DON reviewed Resident #45’s fingernail photograph and confirmed the state of Resident
#45’s nails are not acceptable.
A review of the facility’s Care and/or Treatment Declination revealed “The form will be
completed and signatures obtained on all residents who choose not to accept the recommended care

the mental or functional status of the resident. The primary care clinician (unnamed) was notified on
8/13/25 at 12:00 p.m. with a recommendation of “supplement bolus feedings”. The nursing
note did not include any further information.
Review of Resident #3s Care Plan showed the resident was at nutritional risk related to recent
hospitalization, advanced age, recent loss of spouse, high BMI, therapeutic & mechanically altered
diet/fluids, require assistance with all Activities of Daily Living (ADLs), predicted sub-optimal oral (po)
intake, dependent on supplemental oxygen (O2), psychotropics, antibiotics (abt), altered labs, impaired skin
integrity, and diagnosis/history: urinary tract infection (UTI), atrophy, dysphagia, Coronary Artery Disease
(CAD), hypertension (HTN), hyperlipidemia (HLD), hypothyroidism, insomnia, bipolar depression, atrial
fibrillation (a-fib), and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), weight – history of (h/o) weight loss.
The focus was initiated on 7/4/25 and revised on 8/11/25. The goal was to maintain nutritional intake and
included an intervention to monitor weight changes. The interventions did not show any intervention was
added after the resident’s significant weight loss was discovered.
Review of Resident #3s Physician Order Summary Report showed an order written on 7/4/25 allowing to
Delegate to dietitian the responsibility to alter, change, or modify dietary orders including oral supplements,
measurement of height and weight, modification 2 or addition of diet restrictions/ therapeutics, downgrade
of diet consistency in consultation with SLP when needed, enteral feeding and water flushes. The orders
showed the resident was to receive a house diet of Pureed PU 4 (pureed/extremely thick) texture,
nectar/mildly thick (MT2) consistency. The report included an order dated 8/11/25 to start on 8/12/25 for
120 mL’s of liquid nutritional supplement to be administered orally (po) twice daily (BID). The report
showed the resident was also to receive the following supplements: 22.5 milligram (mg) of the
antidepressant, Mirtazapine (active as of 7/9/25), 25 microgram (mcg) of cholecalciferol (Vitamin D) for
vitamin deficiency (active as of 7/4/25), and 325 mg Ferrous Sulfate for iron deficiency (active as of 7/4/25).
The Order Summary Report did not include the dietician’s recommendation for weekly weights.
Review of Resident #3s Speech Therapy notes showed Speech/Language Pathologists (SLP) had been
working with the resident. A note on 7/15/25 showed Staff J, SLP saw the resident to encourage oral intake
and assess tolerance of puree diet and direct thin liquid trials. A SLP note on 7/17/25 showed the resident
had complained about puree texture but had informed the SLP of being unable to get soft bite-sized foods
down. A trial was conducted with soft/mashable snack which the resident reported a preference. The SLP
educated the resident on limitations to various types of food. Review of SLP notes showed the resident was
seen by this therapy on 7/23, 7/25, 8/6, 8/11, 8/12, 8/15, 8/19, 8/20, 8/22, 8/25, and 8/26/25. The notes did
not reveal the SLPs were aware of the resident’s weight loss.
An interview was conducted on 8/27/25 at 10:03 a.m. with Staff J. The staff member reported seeing
Resident #3 for dysphagia, the resident did not like the puree diet and was trialing soft/bite size solids. Staff
J reported being unaware of the resident’s weight loss. Staff J stated typically would know if there
was weight loss, the dietician would prescribe supplements to increase caloric values and sometimes
would let the staff member know about weight loss. The staff member stated would have expected
collaboration regarding where the resident was in the process, interdisciplinary collaboration is crucial.
An interview was conducted on 8/26/25 at 4:35 p.m. with the Director of Nursing (DON). The DON stated
the Regional Dietitian was not allowed to answer questions.

During an interview on 8/27/25 at 1:47 p.m. the Director of Nursing (DON) stated psychiatry had reported
Resident #3 was really depressed and started on a supplement, 120 mL’s of liquid nutritional
supplement twice daily. The DON stated the expectation was a collaboration between the dietitian and
speech therapy (SLP). The DON stated the facility does weekly weights on the resident, then reviewed the
orders and reported not seeing an order for the weekly weights. The nursing director reported the dietitian
would have put the order for weekly weights in, didn’t see weekly weights just monthly weights. The
DON reported the Director of Rehab (DoR) was included in clinical meetings and she had informed the
director of Resident #3s weight loss and would have expected the DoR to inform SLP of the weight loss.
Review of the policy – Weight Management, effective February 2025, showed, Weights are
completed on admission and readmission, then weekly for four (4) weeks, then monthly unless physician
orders more frequently. Residents with weight loss of 5% in 30 days, 7.5% in three (3) months, and 10%
and six (6) months require physician notification, and resident/ resident representative notification. Speech
therapy (ST) and/ or occupational therapy (OT) are notified as needed. Documentation of notification(s) is
documented in the progress notes. The care plan and Kardex are updated with interventions. Weight loss is
reviewed in Standards of Care (SOC) with the Interdisciplinary team (IDT). The SOC, areas assessed and
discussed may include, but may not be limited to pain management, psychotropic use, depression, dental
or oral concerns, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, Constipation, food dislikes and dislikes, in a deadline in the
ability to feed self, chew or swallow. If a resident with weight loss chooses not to take a supplement, try
other nutrition interventions such as use of fortified foods or snacks. Registered Dietitian provides
recommendations directly to the Director of Nursing. DON assigns follow up to Unit Managers on the next
business days. Follow up response is turned into DON with verification of completion.

Based on observations, record reviews, and interviews the facility failed to ensure the intravenous catheter
dressing for one (#97) of one resident sampled for catheter dressing was changed per professional
standards and per facility expectation. Findings included:On 8/24/25 at 12:40 p.m. Resident #97 was
observed lying in bed. The observation showed the resident had a single lumen peripherally inserted
central catheter (PICC) inserted into the right upper arm. The area under the clear inclusive dressing
showed a dark dry-looking substance and a red wet-looking substance. The dressing was dated 8/19. On
8/27/25 at 9:09 a.m. Resident #97s PICC line dressing was observed, the dressing continued to be soiled

Based on observation, record review, and interview the facility failed to ensure the medication error rate
was less that 5.00%. Thirty medication administration opportunities were observed and two errors were
identified for one (#17) of five residents observed. These errors constituted a 6.67% medication error
rate.Findings included: On 8/26/25 at 9:13 a.m., an observation of medication administration with Staff
Member I, Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN), was conducted with Resident #17. The staff member dispensed
the following medications:- Amolodipine 5 milligram (mg) oral tablet- Buspirone 5 mg oral tablet- Famotidine

The staff member confirmed dispensing 9 medications. Staff I received order from provider (who was in the
facility) to change docusate from capsule to tablet and lactobacillus to saccharomyces. The staff member
changed the orders in the electronic medication profile and administered the 9 medications to the resident.
On 8/26/25 at 9:36 a.m. Staff I electronically signed the medications had been administered. Review of

Based on observations, interviews and record review the facility failed to ensure sufficient kitchen staff for
four out of eight days reviewed.Findings Included:During an observation on 08/24/2025 at 9:23 a.m., three
staff members Staff P, Cook, Staff Q, Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA) and Staff R, Dietary Aide were
observed in the kitchen area.Review of the punch detail report for dietary staff for 07/24/2025 thru
08/25/2025 revealed:08/24/2025 one cook and one dietary aide clocked in for the morning shift.08/22/2025
one cook and one dietary aide clocked in for the afternoon shift.08/18/2025 one cook and one dietary aide
clocked in for the afternoon shift.08/17/2025 one cook and one dietary aide clocked in for the afternoon
shift.Review of Staff Q, CNA and Staff N, CNA punch detail report dated 07/24/2025 thru 08/25/2025
revealed, Staff Q, CNA worked as a dietary aide 4.25 hours and Staff N, CNA worked as a dietary aide
16.00 hours.During an interview on 08/24/2025 at 11:09 a.m. Staff P, Cook, stated I was the only person in
the kitchen this morning. This is normal when I work. People are scheduled off and they don't cover the
position. Staff R, Dietary Aide just started and is in training. When we are short in the kitchen, they will send
a CNA to help. I served breakfast on Styrofoam, and some residents got plastic ware because I did not
have anyone to do the dishes. Breakfast was served late this morning because I did not have help in the
kitchen.During an interview on 08/24/2025 at 1:59 p.m., Staff N, CNA stated she was called in to work at
10:30 a.m. this morning. We always work short on the floor because kitchen staff call off and they take
CNAs off the floor. When they pull me from the floor to work in the kitchen, they don't cover my assignment,
and it causes residents to not get showers. If state was not here, they would not have called me in to fill in
on the floor.During an interview on 08/25/2025 at 9:50 a.m., Staff S, Food Services Manager (Interim
Certified Dietary Manager) stated she was not sure if the kitchen was fully staffed. She was asked to come
and cover because the Dietary Manager is out. She would have to check with the Nursing Home
Administrator to confirm how many staff the kitchen had and if it is fully staffed. She thinks they are
interviewing for kitchen positions as well.During an interview on 08/27/2025 at 12:30 p.m., the Staffing
Coordinator stated CNA's have had to fill in in the kitchen. But it's not frequent. If they need help in the
kitchen, and if they let her know ahead of time and she will make sure there is staff to be able to help in the
kitchen. They called her on Sunday 08/24/2025 and asked if the aides can go in the kitchen. Most of the
time we have an overflow with aides on the weekends. If a CNA is moved from the floor to the kitchen the
supervisor is responsible for adjusting the assignments on the floor. She is not responsible for the kitchen
staff schedule; the Dietary Manager is the one who does that schedule and takes calls for call outs.During
an interview on 8/27/2025 at 5:25 p.m., Staff Q, CNA stated she is asked to help in the kitchen a few times
a month. I was most recently pulled from the floor to work in the kitchen on 8/21 and 08/24. When I cover in
the kitchen no one covers my assignments on the floor. During an interview on 08/27/2025 at 2:45 p.m., the
Nursing Home Administrator (NHA) stated on Sunday (08/24/2025) they had call outs in the kitchen, so
they used a CNA from the floor to help in the kitchen. She stated when they have call outs in the kitchen the
Dietary Manager is responsible for getting coverage or they should come in and cover the shift. CNA's are
pulled from the floor to help in the kitchen. CNAs are not given any additional training when working in the
kitchen because they are only helping with tray service. They already do tray service on the floor so they
would not need any additional training. If kitchen staff are not coming into their shift this would cause a
delay in meal services to residents.Review of the facility policy titled Staffing, dated August 2024
revealed.The projected staffing plans are reevaluated on an ongoing basis and response to changes in the
facility, resident population, or other

Implement a program that monitors antibiotic use.
Level of Harm - Minimal harm
or potential for actual harm
Based on record reviews and interviews, the facility failed to implement its protocol for antibiotic use and
failed to monitor actual antibiotic use. On review, the monitoring was not completed for four months. A
review of the Antibiotic Stewardship Book on 8/27/25 at 1:40 P.M. revealed the antibiotic surveillance for
August 2025 was missing. A review of May, June, and July 2025 revealed the surveillance forms are
incomplete. The forms did not have the required information based on policy. The forms contained spaces
for required documentation to be completed. The book did not contain mapping of infections throughout the
building for months May 2025 through August 2025. An interview with the Director of Nursing (DON) on
8/27/25 at 2:25 P.M. was conducted. She said she is the facility's dedicated Infection Preventionist. She said
the Antibiotic Stewardship Policy is reviewed annually. She said she uses McGeer's Criteria form and
mapping for surveillance of infections. She could not locate a copy of the form. She said her expectation is
that the nurse fills out the top form and she fills out the bottom portion. She said she hasn't educated the
nurses on properly filling out the forms. She said she could not locate the surveillance documentation for
August 2025. The DON said she always starts making the surveillance list at the end of the month, and
then she documents on the facility map where each infection is located. She said she hasn't educated the
staff on infection control. She said the interdisciplinary team reviews Antibiotic Stewardship in Quality
Assurance meetings monthly but could not provide evidence of discussion for May, June, and July 2025.
She could not locate a copy of the point prevalence rate for May, June, and July 2025. She said she doesn't
allow physicians to write antibiotic orders prophylactically. A review of the facility's policy Antibiotic
Stewardship - Tracking: Monitoring Antibiotic Prescribing, Use, and Resistance, effective in April 2017,
revealed the procedure is Residents will have complete clinical assessment documentation at the time of
the antibiotic prescription. Audits of antibiotic prescriptions for completeness of documentation, regardless
of whether the antibiotic was initiated in the facility or a transferring facility. Antibiotic prescribing elements
will be addressed for the presence: 1. Dose; 2. Route; 3: Duration; 4. Start Date; 5. End Date; 6: Planned
days of therapy; 7. Indication. The policy revealed community acquired infection antibiotic prevalence data
will be monitored and information presented during the monthly Quality Assurance and Performance
Improvement Committee meeting, by the Infection Preventionist. The policy revealed by tracking antibiotic
usage of those residents admitted into the facility, the total risk of individuals at risk for complications from
antibiotic use can be followed. The policy revealed when providing point prevalence rates, the Infection
Preventionist will obtain census information from the electronic documentation system and generate a
midnight census report for the date in question. New antibiotic starts will be monitored by the Infection
Preventionist as part of their surveillance activities.
